Macomb County jurors can get free ride to court on Uber
Through a pilot project, Macomb County Circuit Court in Mount Clemens is offering jury duty transportation via the ride-hailing business.
Crain's Detroit Business is a metered site. Print and digital subscribers have unlimited access to stories, but registered users are limited to eight stories every 30 days. After viewing three metered stories, you'll be asked to register or log in. After eight more stories in 30 days, you'll be asked to subscribe.
In the past week, three Southeast Michigan weekly newspapers have announced they will cease publication.
Through a pilot project, Macomb County Circuit Court in Mount Clemens is offering jury duty transportation via the ride-hailing business.
The Mount Clemens organization seeks to raise $25,000 to help offset the costs of finding temporary shelter for a dozen women and 25 children who were staying at the shelter during the fire on Sunday.
The $12 million independent minor league baseball stadium that breaks ground today in Utica will be called Jimmy John's Field, and the new three-team league playing there will be known as the United Shore Professional Baseball League.
The $937,000 cleanup will involve excavating and disposing of polluted soil at the former landfill near downtown Utica, installing methane gas detection equipment along with a new soil cover.
The Department of Justice lawsuit in Detroit alleges inflated pricing on a Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles contract of more than $40 million.
Wayne County sale prices rose the most year over year, followed by Macomb, Livingston and Oakland. But home and condominium sales last month fell 1.3 percent.
The regional Great Lakes Water Authority voted 5-1 Friday to approve leasing assets of the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department for 40 years, at $50 million a year — but lining up the necessary board votes may have been only a recent development.
A new regional authority was formalized Friday to take over operations of Detroit's water and sewer system, a move that's designed to limit future rate increases and improve the system's aging infrastructure.
Here's the third in a series of snapshots of downtowns around Southeast Michigan.
30 years ago this week: Downtown Mt. Clemens, struggling to keep its business district alive, tries out a new shopping concept, free concerts and even "I Love Mount Clemens" mugs with business names on them.
Thirty years ago, Mt. Clemens was working on its downtown as an evening venue, but today it embraces its role during the day as well.
Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel's image in a "heavenly pose" will again beam down upon northbound mortals en route to the Detroit Regional Chamber's Mackinac Policy Conference Tuesday through Friday.

In winning today's 123 kilometre stage, Sacha Modolo joined Australian Allan Davis (2007) and Slovenian Luka Mezgec (2012) with five stage wins in a single edition of Tour of Qinghai Lake.

With appearances in Tour of Qinghai Lake, Tour of Hainan and Tour of Taihu ticked off in the second-half of his 2012 season, Benjamin Giraud was in China a lot last year; the 27-year old Frenchman graced the podium seven times, but always with another rider standing taller beside him. Today, he finally made the … Continue reading
The worrying thing for Sacha Modolo's rivals in this year's Tour of Qinghai Lake is not the fact he won his fourth stage today, it's the fact there are still four remaining. Does anyone else have a chance?

Points classification leader Sacha Modolo elevated the coveted green jersey further from the reach of his rivals, completing a hat-trick of victories in this year's race so far and continuing to frustrate ProTeam squad Lampre-Merida's search for its elusive first stage win in China.

North Carolina Solar Leadership at the Crossroads
As a North Carolinian, I can tell you it's pretty darned amazing that, last year, our state was number 2 in the nation in installed solar capacity. And number 4 in the first quarter of 2015, despite what can only be described as some really crappy (and construction-slowing) winter weather.[read more]
Rare Earths Not So Rare?
Rare earths are elements of low abundance, compared to the ores of metals like iron and copper.

It includes a new Bridge Scenario which emphasizes what can be done over the next decade or two.[read more]
Watering Down the Energy Debate
Water is essential for the production of energy. Energy facilities both consume water and have impacts on the aquatic ecosystems they interact with. These interactions are complex however and it is a mistake to over-simplify – one we must avoid if we are to meet our future energy needs sustainably.[read more]
The Internet of Things Provides the Opportunity to Achieve Global Sustainability Now
Take a look at these numbers. 1.3 billion – that's the number of people in the world today who don't have access to electricity. 30% – this number represents the projected growth of global energy consumption by 2020. Universal access to electricity and renewable energy can help address these problems.[read more]
Argentina and China Lead Shale Development Outside North America in First Half of 2015

Where is Future EU Gas Demand Going? Implications for Russian and US LNG Exports to Europe
A new paper calls into question official EU projections regarding EU gas demand, which raises important questions about the economic viability of new gas import infrastructure – both pipelines and especially LNG terminals – and, by extension, about gas supply diversification efforts to enhance overall EU energy security.[read more]
A New Look for Nuclear Power
A novel nuclear power plant that will float eight or more miles out to sea promises to be safer, cheaper, and easier to deploy than today's land-based plants.

Natural Gas Production in East Africa: An Inevitable Resource Curse?

Overall Experience
Great hotel for last min check-in
July 02, 2015
Compared to a few other motels in the area at a cheaper rate you wont get stale smoke smell and/or have to worry about being clean because they are spotless!! It is worth trying, worth the money! Friendly staff!!
Comfortable bed and great service
July 02, 2015
The staff at the desk was courteous and friendly! The bed was very comfortable. The room was extremely clean. The air conditioner was easy to use. The suite was within walking distance to many restaurants. The overall experience was awesome! I would recommend this hotel to family and friends if they are ever in the area of St. Joseph, MO.
Recent Stay
June 29, 2015
Standard room, nothing special. Courteous staff while checking in and crib was brought to our room minutes after arriving to our room which was appreciated. Easy to access off the highway while passing through the area. A/C worked properly.
Returning from CWS
June 22, 2015
Heading back from a late game at the College World Series and stayed halfway at this nice new hotel. Staff was less than enthusiastic (maybe because it was 12:30 am?) and did not greet me as platinum reward member. Room was generous in size and well decorated. Was impressed that each door had thresholds that completely blocked out the light and sound! Nice gym and laundry. Would stay here again.

How do you cope with the end of life of a dear friend? It's never easy – especially when life seems to have been cut way too short. Whether you're an embroiderer, sewer, crafter or other form of artist you have an opportunity to use your skills to create something special to honor the deceased's memory. This month I decided to create a special monogram with a friend in mind. She passed away at the young age of 30 from ovarian cancer.
I enjoy the challenge of learning new software—so I chose to work with Art and Stitch 3.0 software. I was delighted with the built-in designs and features—plus the program is very intuitive.
Open the program, then select File / New. In the dropdown menu I chose Embroidery for the type of design and chose PES format.
I clicked on the Monogram Tools button and discovered a library of monogram styles to choose from. Keeping my friend in mind, I chose the Pioneer Monogram. The ribbon and flowers reminded me of her. I typed my friend's initials in the letters box.
Although it's Monogram of the Month—I didn't want to stop with a monogram. I want more text and the opportunity to use more features in the software. Art and Stitch has a fun feature—adding text on a circle path. I typed "Loving daughter" in the upper portion of the circle then added "and friend" in the lower portion of the circle. While I could probably write pages of text, I figured those two phrases would cover most everything not only for her family but for people lucky enough to have known her.
I saved the design and sent it to the embroidery machine.
Depending on your work habits you could have chosen the thread colors in the software then saved the design. I usually don't know what colors I want to use until I have ALL the "crayons" in front of me. Once in my sewing studio I selected thread colors that I thought would not only coordinate well but would celebrate Alana's life. This is also when the creative process really did turn into a process!
First I grabbed some blue fabric. I liked the "almost" denim look and thought it would be perfect to stitch the monogram. But when it came time to select thread colors I realized the challenge of making sure the embroidery popped against the now not-so-nice blue fabric. The thread colors don't merely need to be bright—they need to be attractive and coordinate. Not to mention they need to be colors my friend would have liked. That is a daunting task!
The blue sample above just didn't work. What was I thinking when I stitched teal ribbons next to the green leaves? The colors don't work well together. On the bright side, I did like the red thread.
Undaunted, I tried again. This time I switched to white fabric.
Now, before you scoff at this sample, let me explain my logic at the time. The leaves needed to be green. The red worked in the previous sample—so surely they'd work for the ribbons. But as I stitched I realized the sample was turning into Christmas with the red and green. So I thought I'd balance things out with the stark black thread for the initials – then a dash of teal for the lettering. I almost didn't finish stitching this sample. It wasn't my best color selection!
After the first two samples I decided to regroup. I focused on my friend's favorite color: emerald green. I selected a pretty emerald green thread—and let it lead the way as I chose the rest of the colors. The rose and golden yellow coordinated well. I really wanted to incorporate teal—the color for ovarian cancer awareness. So I chose a darker version of the color than I had been using. Confidently, I stitched the sample and well, I think the results speak for themselves!
There is a lesson in this blog. Maybe a couple lessons if we look hard enough!
- Select one color and build around it.
- Be open to experimenting with different thread color combinations. If you don't get it right the first time, it doesn't mean you won't get it on the next attempt!
- Every stitch-out is an opportunity to learn!
Now that it's stitched it's ready to be framed and given to Alana's family.

PSL Business Women's Fashion Show is a sell-out affair
PORT ST. LUCIE - Three hundred women "pretty as peacocks" attended the sold-out 24th Annual Fashion Show and Luncheon hosted by Port St. Lucie Business Women on April 26 at the Harbour Ridge Yacht & Country Club in Palm City. These purveyors of high fashion chose a peacock theme for this year's event, highlighted by shimmering turquoise, teal and purple.
More than $18,000 was raised, which will support the Business Women's Community Action Awards and provide scholarships for women attending Indian River State College. Recipients for 2013-2014 will be chosen later this year.
Silent auction items that grabbed attention included a pair of parakeets, with a cage and bird food; a candelabra with a variety of gift cards dangling like pendants; 3 day/2 night stay at River Palm Cottages & Fish Camp; Gator football tickets; and a Marlin's Experience that included tickets for 4 to a game, plus watching batting practice and an opportunity to meet team members.
More than 150 items were offered for intense bidding, including designer handbags, gift baskets, artwork, jewelry galore and gift certificates for spa cervices, rounds of golf, memberships, and a lush potted garden. Peacocks roosting on littered bird cages held treasures of peacock-decorated boxes with a gift card inside served as tabletop decor that also were auctioned.
Jim Lofthus was proud as a peacock to win a Sanyo 42-inch diagonal wide screen high definition LED-LCD, 1080p 60Hz HDTV, along with a Blu-ray player, donated by Walmart DC7038 (Distribution Center). Theresa Wyres, who donated and subsequently won the stylish Tory Burch Thea snake embossed large leather tote bag, held an impromptu live auction. She raised an additional $265 for the Business Women. Gloria Geswell became a coveted "bag lady" as the highest bidder.
Christine Hoffman was the envy of all when she won a show-stopping necklace and matching earrings of 14k gold, genuine emeralds, opals and lab grown sapphires custom-created by Greg Childress of Best Value Jewelry & Pawn.
Walter Deemer, husband of member Bobbie Deemer, John Gallagher, husband of member Diane Gallagher, and Clark Thompson, husband of member Marsha Thompson, got in the act by selling raffle tickets for 50/50. This "winning team" brought in $2,576 in ticket sales. The lucky winner of this jackpot was Carissa Zerga.
The Port St. Lucie Business Women is a professional organization dedicated to promoting the interests of business women and serving our community in an effective way. For the past 24 years, the Port St. Lucie Business Women have been hosting an annual Luncheon and Fashion Show. This major fundraiser helps support the organization's Community Action Grants & Awards, which go to local non-profit agencies that work with women and children in our community.

The 36-year-long war ended in 1996 and is thought to be responsible for the death or disappearance of 200,000 people.More from GlobalPost: Guatemala: Out out of violenceThe Associated Press reported that this is the first Latin American president that has been charged with crimes against humanity. Rios Montt is thought to be responsible for massacres in ethnically Mayan villages, which were thought to be sympathetic to leftists. Thousands of ethnic Mayans were killed in the war.

Febrile Seizures
(Fever Seizures)
DefinitionA febrile seizure is a convulsion (shaking, twitching, muscle tightness) or fainting associated with a fever. It occurs in infants or small children. This seizure is not associated with any other illness or medical condition except the fever. There are two types of febrile seizures:
- Simple febrile seizures:
- Convulsions last between a few seconds to 15 minutes
- Seizures are followed by a period of confusion and sleepiness which slowly goes away
- Complex febrile seizures:
- Last longer than 15 minutes
- Occur more than once within 24 hours
- Convulsions which affect only part the body
CausesHigh body temperature due to a fever is believed to trigger the seizure. The fever is most often caused by common viral infections. Some febrile seizures may be caused by fever after routine immunizations .
Risk FactorsAge is the greatest risk factor. Febrile seizures occur between the ages of 3 months to 5 years. Most febrile seizures occur in children between 6 months to 3 years of age. In general, the younger the age that the first febrile seizure occurs, the more likely it is that a child will have another seizure.There is some evidence that febrile seizures may run in families.
SymptomsA seizure typically lasts a few seconds to a few minutes. Signs of a febrile seizure include:
- A fever, usually above 102°F (38.9ºC)
- Convulsion—jerking or stiffening muscles
- Abnormal eye movements
- Coarse breathing sounds during the convulsion
- Loss of consciousness
- Loss of bladder or bowel control
- Vomiting
- Brief period of drowsiness or confusion following a seizure
- Unless the doctor has told you otherwise, call for emergency medical services.
- Protect your child from physical injury. Place your child on the floor or bed away from any hard or sharp objects.
- Protect your child's airway. Do not place anything in the mouth during the convulsion. Turn the child's head or body to the side. This will allow saliva or vomit to drain from the mouth.
- Watch the time. The length of the convulsions should be less than 5 minutes.

Some did it because it could save them money, but the majority did it because they wanted products that were simply not commercially available, so they had to design and build the systems themselves. Today there are a multitude of loudspeaker companies making a wide variety of different enclosures – with more designs hitting the market seemingly every week – but there are still… View this story

But it's funny the difference that innovation can make. Today's amplifier is a powerhouse, light years removed from the huge, heavy and inefficient designs of the recent past.

Friday, October 14, 2011PSW Staff 10/14/11 11:14 AM,Ever since the introduction of line arrays, it has become harder for subwoofers to keep up with the efficiency of tall columns of coupled transducers in large full-range systems. This has helped drive transducer and amplifier manufacturers to produce increasingly powerful low-frequency components. Multi-kilowatt dual-18 enclosures are now the standard. However, while flown full-length line arrays do a superb job of getting full-range sound to the back of enormous venues, stacked subwoofers – even with their advantage of half-space coupling… View this story

Interesting news for foodies from The Vintage Grille, operating the dining room inside the Hood River Hotel. They've had a struggle finding someone to lead the kitchen, but appear now to have landed a keeper. Jason Barwikowski, with experience at Portland restaurants Paley's Place, Gotham Tavern, Simpatica Dining Hall, Gotham Building Tavern, Clyde Common and The Woodsman Tavern, and celebrated for his previous work by the Portland food media, has joined the Hood River kitchen. Good news for the hotel, its guests and walk-in diners looking for local options.
City planners, council to discuss report on housing needs
by stuwatson •
Does Hood River have enough land to meet the housing needs of residents, now and into the future? Big question, with complex answers.
Moving beyond cocktail party chatter, the City of Hood River has embarked on an ambitious effort to take a landscape view and drive a conversation that will help fine-tune its comprehensive plan for the next 20 years.
The conversation goes public at 6 p.m. Monday at City Hall, when members of the city planning commission meet with members of the city council and consultant Beth Goodman to review data in the City of Hood River Housing Needs Analysis.
Prepared at a cost of $55,000 by ECONorthwest (funded in part by the Department of Land Conservation and Development), the study contains some startling — although not all that surprising — numbers.
Joel Madsen, director of the Mid-Col Housing Authority and Columbia Cascade Housing Corp., sat on the technical advisory committee that helped during the research phase. He says two findings from the report jumped out at him:
- We have an undersupply of affordable housing across most income levels, not just one particular population.
- About 8% of our housing (269 units) has been sequestered for seasonal or recreational housing. That's more than twice the statewide rate of 3.3 percent.
If those numbers seem striking, note that 14 percent of housing in Newport and 54 percent in Cannon Beach is dedicated to seasonal and recreational use.
In a separate calculation (which left the Buzzer scratching his head, because it seemed to address the same uses), the consultants identified 190 short-term rentals and 150 secondary homes in Hood River. That number comes to about 9.6% of the city's housing stock.
Either way you slice it, Madsen concluded, "If you look at how housing stock is being used, we don't have adequate lands to address future population growth."
"The city desires to have an inclusive community, so people who are working in the community should be able to live there."
So, how do we get there?
According to the report, Oregon cities — guided by a landmark law passed in 1974 — must "encourage the availability of adequate numbers of housing units in price and rent ranges commensurate with the financial capabilities of its households."
The report looked at land inside the city limits, and just beyond, in the area defined by what's called the "urban growth boundary." That line can be expanded to meet justified growth needs.
Affordability and access are difficult in these parts. According to the census, Oregon's median household income through 2013 was $50,229. Statewide, the median price of an owner-occupied home was$238,000. That led to a statewide home ownership rate of 62 percent.
Not so much in Hood River. Our median income of $48,858 is less than the statewide average, but the median value of owner-occupied housing was $314,200. Those numbers may suggest a bit why our home ownership rate dips to 51 percent.
The research shows that Hood River has about 1,128 acres zoned for residential use, almost half dedicated to low-density (single family) use. Because single family structures occupy 62 percent of city residential land, the property on which some such structures sit might be converted to higher-density dwellings.
For people who don't want to remove an existing structure before building, they're looking at limited inventory. Only about 16 percent of residentially zoned land is vacant, and not all of it for near-term use.
By another calculation, the report says the city has about 318 build-able residential acres. Of that, only 124 acres are inside the urban growth boundary. The other 194 acres lie in residential zones outside the UGB.
Madsen says the advisory committee settled on three broad tactics to address the need for affordable housing. No discussion mentioned limiting or banning vacation rental uses.
- Planning for more efficient use of land.
- Better understanding the short-term rental market.
- Developing affordable housing.
"The process the city has gone through and where we are, it's exciting," he said.
"It's more than just talking about it. It's getting to the numbers and data to better inform the city about its policy recommendations."
Plan now for 4th of July parade, other activities celebrating Independence
by stuwatson •
It's the event of the season — the 4th of July parade, organized by the Hood River Lions Club. As anyone who has seen one in the past surely knows, the parade includes two kinds of people: 1- Those who are in the parade; 2- Those who are watching the parade.
The Independence Day festivities begin with the 40th annual Kollas-Cranmer Run/Walk from Odell to Jackson Park in Hood River. Registration starts at 7 a.m. at Mid-Valley Elementary School. Walkers start at 8 a.m. and runners begin their contest at 9 a.m.
The parade, with the theme of "Beautiful Bounty," will start at 10 a.m. with the line up on Eliot Drive beginning at 8:30 a.m. To speed up the registration, forms and instructions can be obtained by linking to "gorgelions.org." The parade fee is $10 and there will be monetary prizes for the best entries.
The grand marshal will be the people associated with Fish Food Bank, which opened its new facility last month. The "Beautiful Bounty" theme describes the wonderful area of the Hood River Valley and Columbia River Gorge and the assistance that is given to our neighbors by the Fish Food Bank. Organizers are asking people to bring a can of fruit or soup to Jackson Park that will be given to the Fish Food Bank.
For safety to children and adults and to keep the parade route litter free, the Hood River Lions ask that no candy be passed out or thrown from the entries. The Hood River Rotary Club and Heights Ice Cream are again teaming up to offer ice cream at a discounted price in Jackson Park for the children after the parade.
Onlookers will be treated to about 50 local entries but also a Portland band called "The Beat Goes On" with its musicians and baton twirlers. They will also perform in Jackson Park for 40 minutes, starting at noon with the raising of the American Flag.
At 11 a.m. the Hood River Fire Department will begin serving its annual BBQ lunch. Around 1 p.m., entertainment begins with the Willy & Nelson band. Also in the park will be ice cream, two bounce houses, face painting and some games for the children.
The patriotic celebration ends with a grand fireworks display over the Columbia River starting at 10 p.m. That stellar event is organized by the Hood River Eyeopener Lions Club. Donations for the fireworks program are needed and can be mailed to Eyeopener Lions, 1767 12th Street #136, Hood River, OR 97031.

We love lists, and love the love that lists deliver when they list Hood River high if not higher in their rankings.
So it was nice to see the folks at Livability.com again ranking Hood River among the top small towns (under 20,000 population) in the U.S.
Their list includes 100 towns, but you don't have to scroll too far down from No. 1 (not us) to find Hood River ranked 7th. Last year, we were 4th.
Other Oregon cities on the list? Newport at 35, Astoria at 47, La Grande at 60 and Coos Bay at 75.
First was Lebanon, N.H., and last was Papillon, Nebraska.
Nutritious snacks designed to boost your business smarts …

Gorge Grown Food Network has received a $20,000 grant from the Jerome S. and Barbara Bischoff Discretionary Subfund of The Oregon Community Foundation. The grant will fund a new Veggie Prescription pilot program this summer. Its goal will be to reduce food insecurity by providing vouchers to low-income community members. Under the program, healthcare and social service providers will identify people facing food insecurity, then write a prescription that patients will fill at local farmers' markets and select grocery stores for fresh fruits and vegetables. Several local healthcare providers are providing matching funds specifically for the fresh produce (vouchers) including Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital, Skyline Hospital and the Columbia Gorge Health Council. The Tofurky Company is also providing funding support. "A recent survey shows that even those receiving food stamps and other help are not able to acces the food they need, especially fresh fruits and vegetables," said Sarah Sullivan, Executive Director of Gorge Grown Food Network. …

City planners give OK to look and layout of new Sheppard's facility
by stuwatson •
The Hood River Planning Commission this week signed off on plans for the new location of Sheppard's, the longtime Hood River supplier of orchard and vineyard equipment (John Deere etc.).
Based on conceptual drawings prepared by Surround Architecture of Portland, the site at the northwest corner of North Second Street and Riverside Drive will offer an outdoor showroom that showcases the valley's agricultural heritage.
Craig Sheppard said the project to move all its operations from downtown Hood River (First and State streets) is "still a work in progress."
Once it's complete, the new facility will include 20,000 square feet of space for an equipment showroom, service and repairs.
Sheppard said the family has no plans now for what to do with the site it will vacate.
He said the construction timeline will firm up in the next couple of weeks, but the company is tentatively looking at completion of the new facility and relocation in 2016.
Sheppard said the relocation became imperative because the company needs parking for large trucks making deliveries, and for its customers.
"The business has been expanding over the last several years, a result of the farm economy," Sheppard said. "The farm economy has been good, and that affects us directly."
Freeway access will let the company better serve its base of specialty crop growers in Hood River and Wasco counties.
"One reason for the move to the Port is that we do a lot of business east of here, in the cherry orchards and wine grapes," Sheppard said.
The site, once planned for a Burger King, covers almost two acres. Michael McElwee, executive director of the Port of Hood River, says the Port entered into an agreement with the Sheppard family late last year. Under the agreement, they can buy the property if they meet a host of requirements.
At a meeting with the Port commission June 16, the Sheppards will detail progress on planning, toward lining up financing and permitting. Once all the pieces are in place, the property sale can close. McElwee said that would likely happen this fall.
"Everything we've seen looks good so far," he said.
Gorge homes are selling 32% faster than a year ago, at higher prices
by stuwatson •
Real estate is rockin', to judge by the numbers in the April market action report from the Regional Multiple Listing Service for the Mid-Columbia region.
Thanks to Washington appraiser Steve Gibson for passing along the numbers. The survey covers Skamania and Klickitat counties on the Washington side, and Hood River and Wasco counties on the Oregon side.
To date this year, the big leader in median sales price is … (wait for it) … no, not Hood River.
Answer? Trout Lake, with four sales and a median of $422,500.
Rowena, on the Oregon side, topped median and average sales numbers at $1 million — for one sale.
That's a tilted view of this world, however. To get a real fix, you need more closings at all price levels to get a real picture.
The most active market this year has been The Dalles, with 78 sales. Prices on average are up 4.8% compared to a year ago.
In the city of Hood River, brokers closed 40 sales through April, at prices up 7.6% on average compared to 2014.
Across the region, average sales prices (which can be skewed mightily by one sale of $1 million) are up this year by 21.2%.
Median prices — with half of all sales above and below the number — are up 11.1%.
Comparing county numbers, Klickitat County led the pack with an average year-over-year price rise of 9.2%.
Following seasonal summer upswing patterns, sales activity has depleted the number of houses on the market.
At the rate of April activity, the listing pool would last six months. That means houses were selling 32% faster this April than in 2014.

Revok's new show up at the Library Street Collective features installation and sculptural pieces made out of scavenged materials from the streets of Detroit. A+.
We recently made the best of an opportunity to test drive the new 2013 Ford Explorer Sport, and took the midsize SUV upstate to Storm King for the afternoon. Ford has a rich history of Arts funding, so we thought it a nice tie-in. We made it to the magnificent sculpture park and back safely and in style, bumping selections from our Sound Advice series on the way. Add in all of this with the bonus of not getting a single speeding ticket during the trip, and it made for a great day.
Adel Abdessemed's 16-foot tall bronze sculpture "Coup de tête" is now on view in front of the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
A cool new sculpture editi0n from Leon Reid IV.
Cuz there is apparently a gigantic Humpty Hump head sitting out in a warehouse in Oakland, California… and it could be yours.
Here are some details possibly from shock-g himself:
• dimensions are 12ft high by 16 ft wide at it's base.
• splits into 3 pieces for smaller storage or transport.
• required an 18-wheel truck to transport and a 4-man fork lift team to move.
• full dressing room inside, w/electric elevator that lifts out thru nose.
• also has metal stairs inside and nose-door opens manually as well, in case of electric failure.
• sunglasses light up and scroll circular light patterns around the rims.
• the lips and chin double as steps to walk down to stage.
"whoever grabs it up, please stay in touch, and when we next need it again, i'll reimburse your transport, storage & cleaning expenses up to the current date, to either buy it back or rent it out if it's no longer for sale." – shkg
No exact info on how to locate it though…
