One of the highlights of membership in the Verdugo Club on Glenoaks Boulevard in Glendale was the fashion shows. The club, which opened in 1979, was a much larger facility than its previous gathering place in the old Stepper Auditorium on Broadway and provided a better setting for such events.
The fashion shows grew out of ideas put forth by some of the members, including Walter and Margi Stolrow. He was general manager of Webb's Department Store and Webb's Store for Men and Boys for many years and took an active interest in community affairs.
Susan Skiffington, one of the models, recalled that Margi Stolrow organized the early fashion shows.
"She used Webb's products to begin with and provided the commentary; later they used other dress-shop products."
Skiffington began modeling as a high school student at the Bullock's Pasadena Tea Room under Margi Stolrow's tutelage. She also modeled at Verdugo Club events.

The Bridgeport Report: Week 23
The Bridgeport Sound Tigers (30-23-5-3), proud AHL affiliate of the New York Islanders, earned four points in three games last week and eclipsed the 30-win mark for the first time this season. Bridgeport has won six of its last seven, including a remarkable five-goal rally against the Springfield Thunderbirds on Sunday afternoon, keeping the hot streak alive with 15 games left in the regular season. The fifth-place Sound Tigers are five points behind the Charlotte Checkers for the Atlantic Division's final playoff spot, with one game in hand.
Bridgeport completed a four-game road trip on Friday with its season-best fifth straight victory – a 3-2 win against the first-place Lehigh Valley Phantoms in Allentown, Penn. Kristers Gudlevskis was a big reason why, keeping his team in it with 38 saves (one shy of a season high), including 20 in the third period alone. It was Gudlevskis' fourth straight win and helped the Sound Tigers to their first victory against the Phantoms in 2017-18. On the offensive side, Travis St. Denis, Steve Bernier and Parker Wotherspoon all found the back of the net in the team's first of three straight games.
The Phantoms got revenge one day later at Webster Bank Arena, handing Bridgeport a 4-1 loss to end its win streak. The Sound Tigers outshot the visitors 40-18, including a 17-1 margin in the third period, but Kyle Burroughs was the only one who could beat goaltender John Muse. Greg Carey scored two goals for Lehigh Valley, both in the middle frame, and Muse made 39 saves for his ninth win in 11 AHL appearances this season.
On Sunday, the Sound Tigers came all the way back from a four-goal deficit in the opening six minutes to score a 5-4 victory against Springfield at Webster Bank Arena. Ryan Bourque (one goal, one assist), Casey Bailey (one goal, one assist), Kane Lafranchise (two assists) and Josh Ho-Sang (two assists) all recorded a multi-point effort, while Gudlevskis (11-11-5) made 14 saves in relief. The Latvian netminder took over for Eamon McAdam at 5:18 of the first period and didn't allow a goal the rest of the way. In addition, Wotherspoon, St. Denis and Connor Jones also found the back of the cage to help the Sound Tigers snap Springfield's nine-game point streak (6-0-3-0).
The Sound Tigers return to action this Thursday to face the Rochester Americans (30-16-10-6) in the first of three games in four days. The Islanders' top affiliate will conclude its season series against the Amerks before hitting the road to battle the Hershey Bears (25-29-4-5) on Friday and the Providence Bruins (36-20-3-2) on Sunday. Fans can follow all of the upcoming action via the Sound Tigers Radio Network and AHL Live, beginning with the pre-game show 15 minutes prior to each listed start time.

In addition, take advantage of $1 hot dogs and $5 draft beers at all first-level concession stands, presented by Hummel Brothers and Budweiser, when the Sound Tigers host the Amerks for the final time this season. Bridgeport is 1-1-1-0 against Rochester.
Friday, Mar. 16 at Hershey Bears (7 p.m.) – The Sound Tigers open another four-game road trip on Friday with their second of three visits to Giant Center. Bridgeport is 3-0-0-0 against Hershey this season, including a 3-1 victory at Webster Bank Arena in their last tilt on Jan. 27, in which Scott Eansor scored twice.
Sunday, Mar. 18 at Providence Bruins (3:05 p.m.) – The Sound Tigers make their sixth and final trip to Dunkin' Donuts Center in Rhode Island, where they opened the season 3-0-0-0, but are 0-2-0-0 since Feb. 16.
News and notes:
Promising Prospect: New York Islanders prospect Parker Wotherspoon has been a scoring machine over the last four games. The 2015 fourth-round pick has four goals over that span, including two game-winners, and now ranks fifth among first-year defensemen in the AHL with seven goals this season. Wotherspoon has added nine assists and a plus-five rating through 46 games and is currently on a career-best four-game point streak (four goals, two assists), dating back to Mar. 3.
Playoff Picture: As the Sound Tigers enter the final five weeks of the regular season, the club finds itself on the outside looking in. Bridgeport continues to rank fifth in the Atlantic Division standings, five points behind the cut-off spot, but still with one game in hand on the fourth-place Charlotte Checkers. The Sound Tigers have put some distance on the sixth-place Springfield Thunderbirds (seven-point differential and with one game in hand) as the team enters its final 15-game stretch. The top four teams in each of the AHL's four divisions will qualify for the 2018 Calder Cup Playoffs (no crossover).
Top of the Leaderboard: Second-year forward Travis St. Denis has scored in four of his last six games and following his 17th goal of the season in Sunday's 5-4 win, the Quinnipiac University product now leads the team in that department. St. Denis is also Bridgeport's active leading scorer with 32 points (17 goals, 15 assists) in 59 games and has 14 points (eight goals, six assists) in his last 20 outings. He paces the team with seven power-play goals as well.
Quick Hits: Josh Ho-Sang missed two games last weekend due to illness, but returned to the lineup on Sunday and notched his fifth multi-point performance of the season (two helpers)… Casey Bailey assisted on two power-play goals last weekend and now leads the club with 15 power-play points (six goals, nine assists)… Former Yale University captain Ryan Hitchcock, who signed an amateur tryout (ATO) with Bridgeport on Thursday, made his professional debut on Sunday and recorded one shot… The Sound Tigers are just 2-4-0-1 when recording 40 or more shots this season… Mitch Vande Sompel returned to Bridgeport's lineup Sunday after missing 13 games with an upper-body injury… Vande Sompel is tied for the team lead among defensemen with 22 points (four goals, 18 assists) in 43 contests.

Affiliate report:
Former Sound Tiger and 2018 AHL All-Star Christopher Gibson made 50 saves on Sunday, backstopping the New York Islanders (30-29-10) to a 5-2 win against the Calgary Flames at Scotiabank Saddledome. It was an NHL career high in saves for Gibson and his second career NHL victory (2-1-3), while former Sound Tiger Anders Lee scored twice on the offensive side. The win snapped New York's eight-game slide and moved the team within seven points of the Columbus Blue Jackets for the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. Lee paces the Islanders with 33 goals in 53 games, and John Tavares (31 goals, 38 assists) and Mat Barzal (18 goals, 51 assists) are tied for the team lead with 69 points in 69 games. The Islanders return to action this Thursday with a 7 p.m. matchup against the Washington Capitals at Barclays Center. Nine of the club's final 12 games will take place at home.
The Worcester Railers H.C. (27-25-4-3) collected two points in two games last week and continue to sit fifth in the North Division standings with 13 games remaining. Worcester dropped a 5-2 decision to the Wheeling Nailers on Wednesday morning, despite Chris Langkow's 17th goal of the season, but the club responded with a 12-round shootout victory over the Adirondack Thunder on Sunday. Matt Lane and former Sound Tiger Jeff Kubiak each scored in regulation, while Mitch Gilliam made 28 saves in nearly 65 minutes of work before stopping 11 of 12 in the shootout. Mike Cornell, who was loaned to Worcester earlier in the day, recorded the game-deciding goal in the 12th round. The Railers open a three-game series this Friday against Wheeling, before welcoming the Fort Wayne Komets and Utah Grizzlies to the DCU Center.

Halle Berry Chugs Whiskey, Served by Channing Tatum, at 'Kingsman 2' Comic-Con Panel!
Channing Tatum pours Halle Berry a glass of whiskey on stage during the Kingsman: The Golden Circle panel during 2017 Comic-Con on Thursday (July 20) at the convention center in San Diego, Calif.
The co-stars were joined at the event by Taron Egerton, Colin Firth, Jeff Bridges, and Pedro Pascal.
The first movie in the franchise follows secret agents whose cover is a tailor shop. The sequel takes place in the U.S. where the agents there use a cowboy whiskey distillery as their cover-up, so that explains why the whiskey poured on stage!
The cast also stopped by SiriusXM's Entertainment Weekly Radio that afternoon for an interview.
FYI: Halle is wearing a Hudson romper and Aquatalia shoes.
30+ pictures inside of Halle Berry and the Kingsman 2 cast at Comic-Con…

Below is my Honest Hockey Review of the Bauer Re-AKT Hockey Helmet. As always, feel free to provide courteous feedback. For more on 2016 Helmets and Equipment, check out the Reboot Hockey Off-Ice Training Manual.
The Bauer Re-AKT was Bauer's top of the line helmet for 2014-15, having since been superseded by the Bauer Re-AKT 100. The Re-AKT is the second helmet in Bauer's line for 2016, and currently has a suggested retail value of $199.99 USD.
The most-prominent features of the Re-AKT includes VERTEX foam protection (lighter/more protective than the IMS liner), an impact-management system, an Occipital lock (3.0) adjustment to lock the back of the head into place, standard tools-free adjustment, memory foam in the temples, and an anti-microbial agent applied to the liner.
The Re-AKT is available in eight color options, and is clearly distinguished from the 2016 Re-AKT 100 by being single-colored rather than two-tone. It features a much-more classic look than the Bauer IMS 11.0, which is a re-conceptualized version of the Cascade M11 helmet.
As you will read below, the original Re-AKT is a massive upgrade on mid-level Bauer helmets such as the 4500/5100, my preferred 5500 or even later-edition helmets such as the 9900. It compares to the CCM Resistance in terms of quality and price.
Basis of Comparison
I'm using a number of helmets for my Basis of Comparison: my dutiful Bauer 5500, the Reebok 11K, and the CCM Vector 10. While I do not have other elite-level Retail options on hand, I think I've used enough mid/upper-level helmets in the recent past to objectively review the Re-AKT.
Like many higher-end Bauer/CCM helmets, the Re-AKT is adjustable at two points: the standard temple adjustment allows the helmet to be sized front-to-back, while the Occipital Lock 3.0 allows the helmet to fit securely around the back of the player's head.
The Occiptial Lock 3.0 is a lever on the back of the helmet that tightens or loosens the fit very easily. The use of O-Locks is becoming an industry standard among upper-level helmets, and as time passes I imagine O-Lock devices will become standard on all Hockey Helmets.
The Re-AKT features a standard sizing adjustment, cleverly hidden in the helmet's crown:
The liner uses the aforementioned Vertex Foam as well as "Free-Floating Suspend-Tech utilizing PORON® XRD™ technology". It should go without saying (but won't!) that it fits much-more comfortably than a mid-level helmet such as the 5500 and significantly better than an entry-level helmet such as the Bauer 2100.
The Re-AKT does not feature the GIRO-inspired fit system of the Easton E700, but compares favorably to any helmet currently available on the Retail market – including the CCM Resistance and the Re-AKT 100, which uses Bauer's patented CURV technology in the construction.
HH Score: 9.5
The Re-AKT comes in eight different non-Pro Stock shell options, which should be more than enough to satisfy the average customer. It does not do Shell/Insert color-combos like the Reebok 11K did (and CCM FitLite presumably will), nor does it come in two-tones like the Re-AKT 100, but this shouldn't be your primary concern when picking out a helmet.
The Re-AKT looks much more like a Bauer 4500/5500/7500 than a Cascade/IMS helmet, and in my opinion is more streamlined than the Bauer 9900. The new locations for the tools-free adjustment are well-placed, and the helmet has a good, classic look to it.
Here are a few shots of the Re-AKT next to one of my 5500s. The Re-AKT is on the left with the cage. Try not to judge the miles on the 5500:
As you can see, long-time Bauer helmet users should be very pleased with the look of the original Re-AKT.
HH Score: 9.0
If you are picking out a Hockey Helmet for yourself or someone else, a main performance feature to look for regardless of price-point is an Occipital Lock. I've found that an O-Lock on both the Re-AKT and my 11K improves fit tremendously, especially compared to something less advanced such as a Bauer 5500. A snug lid is going to be a major asset in injury prevention.
Aside from an O-Lock – and I found the lock on the Re-AKT to work just as well as the Micro-Dial lock on my 11K – I have to take the manufacturers at their word that the science is cutting edge. When CCM enlists the University of Ottawa to help make the Resistance all-but-bulletproof, I have to believe that's not fabricated marketing. The same obviously holds true for Bauer.
The Re-AKT has temple adjustments just like the 5500/7500, with the adjustment lock cleverly hidden on the crown of the helmet. I missed it the first time I used the Re-AKT, and was wondering why I wasn't getting a great fit with just the O-Lock. Quick, find the writer who's obviously been to the Quiet Room one too many times in his career.
The Re-AKT offers "Rotational Force Management", which as an Emergency Care provider I know accounts for a higher percentage of head injuries than direct blows. This is the sort of tech that's obviously not woven into helmets further down the pricing hierarchy.
As I've written before, I didn't start banging my head off cars in the rink parking lot to test it's durability, but I do get into the corners during games and receive a fair amount of jostling. Once I had both the temples and the O-Lock properly adjusted, the Re-AKT provided worry-free protection.
HH Score: 9.5
With Helmets, Value is in the eye of the purchaser.
I have a friend who prioritizes his brain health much more appropriately than I do. He not only purchased the IMS 11.0 shortly after it's release, but eagerly awaited the release of the CCM Resistance (as well as the Re-AKT and Re-AKT 100, presumably). Smarter people than me don't even want to play around with the potential for concussions.
Then there's me, owner of no less than 10 confirmed concussions, who continues to revert to the 15-year old tech seen in the Bauer 5000/5500 despite evidence to the contrary demanding that I upgrade.
To cite one example, I took a concussion from some tool in adult league on the weekend of my oldest friend's wedding that potentially could have been stemmed by an elite-level helmet such as the Re-AKT. I spent her wedding muttering to myself like Rain Man and fighting the urge to throw up every 20 minutes, to say nothing of additional long-term neurological damage that a helmet like the Re-AKT might have helped prevent.
While I recognize that it's smart business to upgrade my chosen helmet, the old-timer in me is screaming "Mark Messier played 25 damn years in the NHL in a Mylec ball-hockey shell! Bobby Orr didn't even wear a helmet! Keep your head up and maybe you wouldn't get your bell rung!"
The thinker in me fully understands the value of an elite-level helmet such as the Re-AKT, but both the economist in me and my male-driven ego think I'm just fine with one of my 5500s or even my Reebok 11K. So once more, Value is in the eye of purchaser.
The original Re-AKT retained it's $199.99 price-point even after the release of the Re-AKT 100. For the technology invested, the Re-AKT is reasonably-priced compared to other front-line helmets such as the CCM Resistance and the Re-AKT 100.
HH Score: 8.0
Personal Biases
I have absolutely no Personal Biases toward or against Bauer or the Re-AKT. As noted, my helmet-of-choice since I got to College has been the Bauer 5000/5500, but I also enjoy and use a number of CCM/Reebok helmets. If I were in the market for a new helmet and had discretionary income, I would absolutely consider the original Re-AKT.
Final Thoughts
The Re-AKT remains a major market option among elite-level helmets, and a high-value alternative to the $229 Resistance or $269 Re-AKT 100. If you opt to invest in the Re-AKT, you are very likely to get what you pay for, which is a top-level Hockey Helmet with outstanding protection.
HH Overall Score: 9.0
Thanks for reading. Like Reboot Hockey on Facebook.

It's going to be hard to discuss the latest news regarding Game of Thrones season 3 without spoiling the crap out of A Storm of Swords for you. Let's just say that one of the biggest, most shocking scenes from the third book is officially being filmed. And fans are stoked! This is the scene for which the show's producers asked for amputees to take part in the big battle. Needless to say, it's probably going to be as gruesome, bloody, violent, and freakin' CRAY as it is in the book!
Since the third book will be split up into two seasons, most fans assumed that this will be the climax for the end of the third season. We can discuss it more thoroughly after the jump, after I give you a fair warning that there are MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD. You don't want to ruin this one for yourselves, trust me. The twist is big enough that George R. R. Martin himself said he may as well flee the country after it airs!
Well, let's get to it: Seems that The New York Post is reporting that the filming of the Red Wedding scene is officially underway. As Martin told MTV: "Judging by the reaction that Ned's death got when the television audience saw that, I think I'm going to go to some part of the world where they have no television when a certain episode airs, and I'll hide out and they won't find me at all," he said. "I'll have to hide from the Internet storm as well."
Damn straight, George. Here's a little background: Catelyn Stark's brother, Edmure Tully, was going to marry a daughter of Lord Frey. Robb, Catelyn's son, betrayed the initial alliance by marrying another woman even though he was arranged to marry a Frey. This new union was a compromise. But Lord Frey couldn't get over it: He had soldiers at the wedding feast disguised as musicians. Then, during the attack, they created special tents that collapsed and were then set on fire. I can absolutely see HBO drooling with anticipation over showing this chaotic, gory violence.
During the attack, Catelyn Stark and her son Robb and Robb's entire army and direwolf were all killed. These characters are so beloved, especially Catelyn, and when her husband was brutally executed, we cheered for her to get justice and reunite with her daughters. Sadly, that never happens, as Catelyn's throat is sliced while Robb is killed and then his head is sawed off and his direwolf's is sewn on in its place (I can't even imagine how/if they're going to film that!).
So needless to say, the fact that this game-changing scene will most likely culminate season 3 should make fans that much more excited. I would have been surprised if they held this scene for season 4, but I'm glad it's officially settled that we'll see it in 2013. It could be one of the best scenes of this show, of television, ever.
Here's a video of some spoilers for season 3:
Are you excited to see HBO's take of the Red Wedding? Think George R. R. Martin will have to flee after it airs?

Sadie's Log:
Our Matriarch, most honorable Gwendolyn, has asked that I begin to keep a log of my missions. It is for this reason only that I write. I can't imagine why it is necessary, or that anyone would take pleasure in reading my chicken scratch. I do not fancy myself much of a scribe nor story teller, but I will give it my best.
The journey to Sprucetuck was mostly uneventful. When Saxon and I reached the town, we were escorted directly to the head scientists laboratory. Glass beakers filled with strange colored liquids lined the walls. The air was thick with the smell of herbs.
Governor Graham of Sprucetuck met us in the laboratory and placed in our care eight cases of precious elixirs. Saxon made a vow to deliver the goods to Lockhaven without spilling a single drop. My goal was similar: To deliver the goods safely and win favor within the Mouse Guard. We left Sprucetuck before the sun began to set.
Not long after our departure, we were set upon by a group of bandits lead by Kegan the Brave. They believed themselves a band of altruistic thieves, claiming to need the elixir in our possession to keep their town alive during the coming winter months. I tried to convince them that if the elixir made it to Lockhaven, it would save many a mouse from death during the winter, including mice from his village. Alas, the villain would not budge in his demands, and we were forced to come to a compromise. Kegan expected no less than three of the eight cases, and in turn he would lend to us an honor guard led by Brandy, one of Kegan's finest archers. Upon agreement, we parted ways.
Not long after we had left them, we heard behind us the approach of some creature running quickly through the underbrush. One of Kegan's mice rushed toward us, panic and fear in his eyes. He informed us that the bandit group had been ambushed by weasels and that Kegan and his crew had been taken prisoner along with the goods they had taken from Saxon and I. At Brandy's request we agreed to go back and help them. We left our cargo in the care of the two other mice who were our honor guard.
As we approached the weasel camp, a sudden and violent thunderstorm began. In the flashes of blinding white light I could see Kegan and is mice huddled and tied together in the center of the camp. The supplies were close by, as were two armored weasel guards. I could smell their stench even through the pouring rain.
Between flashes of lightning I stole toward the captives under cover of darkness. I finally reached them and quickly began to slice their bonds. I much have startled one of the mice, for he cried out, attracting the attention of the weasels. They set upon me and I was easily overtaken and tied up.
It was then that the ground beneath us began to rumble and shake. Leave it to a squad of stupid weasels to set up camp in a dried creek bed. I stared in horror as a wall of water hurtled over the tents and every creature was swept into the current. I tried my hardest to maintain what footing I could, pushing against rocks to keep the other mice and I from rushing down the stream. Water rushed over my head and I gasped for air when my snout broke the surface.
As lightning flashed above, I caught glimpses of Saxon battling a weasel warrior on a rock above the water's surface. The two creatures battled fiercely, lightning glinting off Saxon's mighty blade as he thrust again and again toward the weasel. Saxon stabbed the weasel and knocked the creature into the rushing torrent. The brave mouse was thrown off balance as a passing branch caught on the end of his cloak, wrenching his neck in a painful way.
Despite his injury, Saxon dove into the stream and pulled our half-drowned forms from the water. The supplies, unfortunately, had been swept down stream and were nowhere to be found. We waited out the storm and then traveled back to where we left our remaining cargo. The remainder of the journey was, thankfully, uneventful. The five cases we kept in our possession were delivered safely to Lockhaven.

Hidden away in the North Carolina mountains, Hot Springs is known for its mineral rich thermal waters. Today, water bubbles up to the surface and is channeled into hot tubs that sit on the banks of the French Broad River. If you'd rather soak under the stars, some Hot Springs vacation rentals feature private outdoor tubs. Thanks to its riverside location, Hot Springs has a big focus on water sports. Think kayaking, canoeing, and even white-water rafting. The town is also a mecca for hikers, with the iconic Appalachian Trail running right through the town center.
Hot Springs serves up plenty of family-friendly action, with horse riding, mountain biking, ziplining, and white-water rafting all on offer. The Appalachian Trail runs right through downtown Hot Springs, which makes it easy to explore the legendary route. The town is famous for its trout, so if you like fishing, pick up a temporary license at the local tackle shop. Of course, one of the best ways to pass the time is by doing nothing at all. Master the art of relaxation with a fantastic line-up of Hot Springs vacation rentals, complete with sunny decks, blazing fireplaces, and sweeping mountain views.
Surrounded by mountains, Hot Springs is a haven for nature lovers. Unsurprisingly, one of the town's biggest attractions is the hot springs themselves. Today, the only way to enjoy the thermal waters it to book a hot tub at the family-friendly riverside resort. If you feel like being pampered, why not treat yourself to a massage or spa treatment? To the south is Great Smoky Mountains National Park, home to a fantastic network of hiking trails. If you want to work up a sweat, Clingmans Dome unlocks sweeping views over the mist-covered mountains.
The town's thermal baths are open throughout the year, which means every season is soaking season. Summer is sublime, with warm weather and luxuriously long days. Make the most of balmy evenings with sunset barbeques on the decks of Hot Springs vacation rentals. Spring is the best time for water sports, when the rivers fill up with snowmelt. Winter does get chilly, but Hot Springs looks enchanting under a dusting of snow. Spend the day exploring winter hiking trails, then relax your muscles with a well-deserved soak.
Sitting on the banks of Spring Creek and the French Broad River, Hot Springs doesn't scrimp on scenery. It's backed by the towering Blue Ridge Mountains, and is just a stone's throw from Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Pisgah National Forest. Hot Springs is also a popular stop-off point for hikers, with the Appalachian Trail running directly through the town center. Just a 40-minute drive north of Asheville, Hot Springs doubles as both a day trip destination and a multi-day retreat.

Windows Defender Problems
Had a HD failure, so had to re-install everything.
Was smart enough way back when I purchased the HP desktop to make those System Restore Disks (3), and the restore went well.
Anyway, thought I'd get Windows Defender running again, as it is supposed to be really good, I heard. Am also running AVAST-Free.
Can't seem to get Windows Defender going.
It "seems" to be there, but if I go to it, it says it needs to be STARTED again by clicking on a START Button that is there, or the PC re-started to run.
If I click on the START Button that is there, the little green circle just keeps revolving, seemingly forever.
Restarting the pc doesn't help either.
If I download a new copy of Windows Defender, it won't install, as it comes up with a msg. that an install isn't needed as it is already there. Also mentions Vista for some reason. I'm running W7.
If I go to the Action Center in the Control panel, same results, exactly.
What should I do to get Windows Defender operational ?
What is going on, do you think ?

I am not sure what is happening with your system now that it will not run both.

If it were me, I would turn off real time protection, as well as disable the service of Windows Defender. It is below average at best, and just uses system resources.

United Technologies Corp. has found that bringing manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. can be a lot trickier than it sounds.
The company's move to relocate an Otis elevator plant from Mexico to South Carolina in late 2012 was hailed as a sign of a small renaissance in American manufacturing. The relocation was supposed to save money and help fill orders faster by putting the people who make new elevators next to the engineers who design them, and their customers.
Now, it's clear the reality hasn't been so smooth. Production delays created a backlog of overdue elevators. Some customers canceled their orders after being left waiting months, people in the elevator industry said. The plant Otis was leaving behind in Nogales, Mexico, had to stay open for half a year beyond its planned closing date to deal with the backlog.
The move became snarled in part because Otis added to its complexity by simultaneously reorganizing two other U.S. facilities and shrinking its product line, part of a broader plan to streamline its North American operations. But the company's experience also shows that with supply chains and skilled labor following American factories overseas in recent decades, coming home can be more complex than just deciding where to site a plant.
For Otis, it was an expensive lesson. The company has resolved the bulk of the problems and is working through the order backlog. But the delays cost United Technologies $60 million last year and will continue to weigh on earnings through the first half of 2014, the company said.
"I think we failed on both the planning and the execution side," Robert McDonough, chief operating officer for the United Technologies unit that includes Otis, told analysts in March.
Otis was founded in 1853 and is now the world's largest manufacturer, installer and servicer of elevators and escalators. It contributed about a quarter of the $2.6 billion in operating profit notched last year by United Technologies, which also makes Pratt & Whitney jet engines, Black Hawk helicopters and Carrier air conditioners.
When the elevator maker opened its new 423,000-square-foot facility in 2012 in a vacant Maytag factory in Florence, S.C., the company was a notable participant in a trend of "reshoring," where some companies reversed the movement of manufacturing work offshore to places like China. Multinationals like General Electric Co. and smaller industrial companies like Carlisle Cos., which makes construction materials, specialty tires and brakes, also brought work back to the U.S.
For some companies, the rise in Chinese wages as American hourly rates fell, along with the long transit, had made producing overseas less attractive.
And for Otis, the return to the U.S. was supposed to herald a step up in efficiency. The company told The Wall Street Journal in the fall of 2011 that the relocation would lower the company's freight and logistics costs by 17%, and would cut costs a further 20% by having all of its white-collar elevator design and production workers on hand at the factory. The company says 70% of its customers in the U.S. and Canada are east of the Mississippi River, closer to the new plant than to Nogales.
Otis shipped its first elevator kits from Florence in the fall of 2012. The factory makes three varieties of elevators for low- to mid-rise apartment buildings, and construction of such developments was rebounding from the recession.
The recovery drove Otis's orders up by double digits last year. The company's president, Pedro Baranda, told investors in March 2013 that the Florence facility was ramping up output to meet demand. But the facility couldn't keep up, leading to delays, executives told analysts in recent conference calls.
Otis executives first threw up a warning about the Florence project early last year. The company might need to hold off on closing down its Nogales factory, Otis told the bosses at United Technologies, because the new facility wasn't coming together as quickly as planned.
The company now says it was trying to do too much at once. In addition to moving the plant, Otis was busy cutting the number of products in its domestic business from seven to three. The company also was replacing the computer system that manages supply, manufacturing, shipping and financial information. Neither rollout went smoothly.
Adding to the complexity, Otis closed two other U.S. facilities, in Arizona and Indiana, and transferred the workers to South Carolina. The bigger hurdle, however, was putting together the necessary workforce.
"The challenge, I think, was moving your supply chain, with your factory and your engineering center, all at once, and quite frankly to an area of the country where it's difficult to get enough trained workers," Greg Hayes, United Technologies' chief financial officer, said in an interview. "It's not like you're moving to Chicago or you're moving to Connecticut."
The reliance on Nogales dragged on longer than planned. At first, Otis executives wanted to postpone closing the Mexico plant from early spring until June 2013. But the number of delayed units continued to rise, hitting 1,000 in the middle of last year. The Mexican factory eventually remained open until September.
"They just bit off more than they could chew, and again, shame on us," Mr. Hayes said. "The process didn't work in this case. Someone should have raised their hand and said, 'We're taking on more than we can handle at this time.' "
Otis overhauled the leadership of its North American operations this spring, bringing in Tom Vining, who had turned around the company's Chinese operations after a fatal accident involving an Otis escalator in Beijing.
By beefing up its field-installation teams, extending the life of its Mexican factory and hiring extra workers in Florence, Otis has managed to work down the backlog. This year, Otis expects new equipment sales in the Americas to grow by about 10%.
"There were customers that certainly felt the effect of some of the delays, and I think they would tell you that we've worked very closely with them to overcome some of the obstacles that some of the late deliveries caused," Mr. Vining said in an interview. "We made the investment and spent a lot of money to work with our customers."
The company wouldn't say how many customers canceled orders, but spokeswoman Mary Milmoe said it wasn't a significant number.
The costs of the Florence problems continue to pile up--as much as $9 million in the first quarter, United Technologies said last month.
Officials in Florence are happy to have the company in town. The city of 37,000 in the Pee Dee region in South Carolina's northeastern corner has a long industrial history. Officials said it has been trying to rebuild its manufacturing base.
Companies including Honda Motors Inc., General Electric Co.'s medical device unit, and pharmaceutical giant Roche Holding AG have built or expanded factories in the region in recent years.
Otis now has 380 full-time employees in Florence, more than the 360 needed to claim a package of tax incentives from the county and state, as well as an additional 140 temporary workers. The jobs are higher skilled than the ones that sustained the area during the first manufacturing boom.
At Otis, said Joe W. King, executive director of the Florence County Economic Development Partnership, "the parking lot's full."

Scrappy Quilt Ready For Quilting!
I am making this as part of Scrap-A-Palooza hosted by Cynthia at Quilting is More Fun Than Housework.
I just pulled a bunch of colorful fabrics from my stash, made five-inch blocks of varying widths, and stitched them all together. The sashing is a batik, though, and I am nearly afraid it will bleed because I was in such a hurry to get it done, I didn't prewash it. Didn't even think to pre-wash it. I know better than that.
I think I will just get it quilted, bound, and then wash it with that Synthropol and hope for the best. I'd really like this one for a cozy quilt to watch tv, read a book, or check up on my bloggy friends!
It was a really fast, quick, easy project. January is my month to get caught up on my own personal projects. February I'll be out of town for a couple of weeks, and by April, I get swamped with my Day Job activities. So January is my time!
What are you working on this fine January weekend?
Always quilting with a smile,

I usually can't contain myself enough for Twitter's 140ish characters. So I blog instead. I'm Siddie Nam, I live in London, UK, and these words describe London Life and other things.
Tuesday, 19 June 2012
Peppa Pig and the Life Changing Experience
School or no school, Mrs Nam is a firm believer that the kids need a little something academic every day. And sitting watching, I can see why. The mid term break has played havoc with my daughter's concentration. The schoolwork is not interesting her at all, she is instead distracted by a nearby toddler with a Peppa Pig book. It's electronic and wonderful. Every fifteen seconds or so it echoes the cheery "Peeeeeeeeeppa Pig" refrain, beloved of children everywhere. It's not the slightest bit annoying, but if it happens again, I am going to toast myself a three year old. Well, maybe not because I actually quite like children, but you know what I mean. Grr!
I'm not even usually here. Usually I am in various places in central London, working hard to earn some cash to pay for classes like these. And I'm wondering what I'd be doing if I wasn't sitting here listening to Ms Pig's cheery kiddie refrain.
I didn't really try as hard as I could have when I was at school, and having left with a bunch of high expectations but mediocre results, I do sometimes consider what might have been. For example, I love to write. I have spent my entire existence absorbing books and literature at a huge rate, as if someone were suddenly about to abolish them. This has filled me with words and I think a few are now being pushed back out again. The consequence of this has been a loose collection of short stories and articles, some children's poems, and no less than two half finished novels. Since unfinished novels don't pay the rent, I do actually have a real job, which means that I never have any time to finish my novels. It's Catch 22 (except it isn't, because that's a finished novel by Joseph Heller).
Like Yossarian, I too feel the constraints of cleverly worked and bureaucratic rules, surely designed to ensure that the commuter trap is well placed to snare hard working but naive victims like me. For example, I often don't have enough time to really complete my tasks during the day, and thus frequently resort to dealing with emails and desk-based trivialities from my laptop on several evenings a week. I don't get anything extra for this, but since many of my colleagues behave similarly (and moan about it), it has led to a situation where, if I didn't do it, and the work didn't get done, I would be exposed as the one with poor values and behaviours. Naturally, all my colleagues feel the same way, with the obvious consequence that our employer gets an awful lot for free.
This is one of many traps laid for the unsuspecting, and I imagine this type of thing has become more typical in a world of constrained finances. It's also the consequence of a mediocre job. The self employed at least stand or fall by their own efforts. And the high fliers get to enjoy the thrill of the completed endeavour. Us normal people...? Well, we commute.
But there is hope. My children do get to see their daddy. Regularly. Every day Mrs Nam and I play with our kids. We read with them. Do sums. Take them to zoos, galleries and museums, and exciting places at home and abroad. They do football, swimming, gymnastics, drama and dance. They're both doing well at learning the piano. And they do it with mummy and daddy there, encouraging them on.
Why am I telling you this? It's certainly not to gloat; there are many excellent parents I know who work and play hard and have amazing, delightful children. No; I'm telling you this as a cautionary tale. I also know far too many mums and dads who, sadly, will have "I missed my kids grow up" as a possible inscription on their tombstones.
My point is simple. These straitened times we live in have shifted the balance, and I urge parents everywhere to be wise to this trap. Your kids need you too, to prepare them for their lives ahead. And your reward is seeing it happen. That will be amazing.
Recently, I made an important personal decision. Mostly my work laptop now stays switched off at home (not always; it's not about being unreasonable or inflexible -- just mostly). This has had a major positive influence on my life. Now I usually get to see my kids. And you know what? I found time to start this blog, just a few months back. And I found time to take photos. And, just yesterday, the reason for this post: I dusted down my novel, and started work on it again. Wow! It may never be published, but it WILL be finished!
This time has made my life immeasurably better. I'm so glad I took such a positive, assertive step. Think about it. What could you do if you made yourself and your kids some time? Who knows. Now if Peppa Pig would just be quiet, I will continue to concentrate on changing my life for the better. Oink.

Fantastic stuff Nammie. Even with my current career frustrations I am trying to be glad that I get to spend so much time with my little girl. I find it difficult not to keep jumping on the computer or checking my emails on the phone - not a good example for a child I want to be interested and interesting rather than glued to a screen. I think I need to follow your example. Oh and I'm glad you're pushing those words out :)ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm quite touched by this. Thank you. Just so's you know, reading your blog regularly was the thing that made me think "I'd like to do that". Mine is for fun, yours is a living. But you played a big part in what I wrote above, even if you didn't know it. I am glad to acknowledge it now. Your blog helped solve my mid life crisis! My next step is write professionally in some capacity. Can I do it? I don't know, but I do know I CAN'T do it without trying. We shall see. As for the kids, well I'm sure little S has a great time with her Mumster, so when she's bigger, I suspect you'll be very glad you had so much quality time with her. Wandering Kiwi has the pictures; she's having a lovely time!Delete

The Mahabharata is the most wonderful book in the world; there can be no doubt of its authenticity because it depicts people not as heroes or saints but as they are. The Rishi's faults are pointed out and the good points of even evil persons are mentioned. It is a retelling of what happened as it did happen. Which is why it is called an Itihasa.
There is no one who is entirely bad, no one who has always been entirely good. In a human being is the whole universe, good bad and middling; clever mediocre and foolish. In him resides all the beings, including devas, asuras Rakshasas and pisachas. In him are munis like Durvasas and noble beings like Uddalaka Aruni.
As an American poet wrote,
Do I contradict myself?
Very well, I contradict myself
I am large, I contain multitudes
This is seen in the Mahabharata where nobody is a totally evil person or a totally good person. Even Duryodhana is not blindly judged. And this is one powerful reason to believe that the Mahabharata is an historical text and not a mythological fancy of an inspired Rishi.
One such person is Drona the teacher of the Kuru family. Though he was dependent on the Kuru family, he did not hesitate to warn against the war and prophesied the defeat of the Kaurava faction led by Duryodhana. Both Drona and his son Asvathaman spoke in the assembly urging peace and Asvathaman's speech is noteworthy. After recapitulating all the favours he had received from the ruling family and his friendship with Duryodhana, he declared, "the faults of even a guru must be declared. Duryodhana did great evil in the game of dice and the kingdom must be returned to Yudhistira."
However their knowledge of what was wrong did not make them abandon Duryodhana to his fate but though they advised him to do what was right they did not make it clear that their support to him was conditional upon his doing the right thing. Duryodhana, Dussasana, Karna and Sakuni knew that Drona would do what his son said and Asvathaman would ultimately side with them.
A look at Drona's history from his early days shows that he had an urge to sit among the rich and famous, his leaving to Drupada's court is generally presumed to be at the urging of his wife who saw his son's distress at their poverty but he could have asked for assistance from many other places, he could have approached the king more diplomatically, after all, all Hindus know of another poverty stricken Brahmana who went to see a childhood friend who was a rich and powerful king. But Sudama who had twenty-eight children (Drona had only one) did not go seeking wealth. Subsequent to his humiliation by Drupada, he sought employment from the Kurus for the sake of his own advancement and to avenge his humiliation by Drupada.
Throughout his career one sees a strong sense of selfishness. His teaching of Arjuna is based on the hope that Arjuna would avenge the insult, which he suffered. In all his life we see a thread of selfishness running through, nothing being done except in his or his family's interest.

Current Articles
Companies are failing to make best use of their talent because they are still 'pigeonholing' people on the basis of their age and experience. That's the message from Simon Wright, former CEO of Virgin Entertainment (NASDAQ:VMED) and now a US based consultant to fast growing companies.
"In some instances experience can actually get in the way of solving problems, because of the preconceptions it can engender," says Wright. "There's a strong argument for approaching challenges with a 'beginner's mind'. But achieving this means putting people in place who combine a commercial mindset with the ability to adapt and use common sense."
Wright cites instances at Virgin where individuals were 'parachuted' into areas where they had little or no directly obvious experience. "One woman, for example, went from store manager to IT director to very successful managing director of a new acquisition within three years because of his excellent people management skills ."
According to Wright, who will be delivering a lecture on the theme at the Ochre House Symposium at Wentworth on 14th September, the reason why so many organisations shy away from this approach is a lack of imagination coupled with fear of the consequences. "Businesses of all sizes need to trust in their instincts and take more risks with people if they are going to manage their talent in a truly effective way," he says.

Would like to appologize for the lack of posts lately but we were busy moving to New York! Im sure as most of you know, moving is not easy, and since we are renting out apartment in Venice, we had to prepare all that too! Ok, so enough of our stories and onto the wine!
Through our friend at Mondosapore, we were introduced to Azienda Vinicola di Marco Sara. A young and promenent producer from the hills of Friuli, they are in fact the winners of the 'Menzione Eccellenza 2008' or in english the Mentino of excellence; for the Tigullio wine meeting in the Palazzo Ducale in Genova. This group uses only grapes indigenous to Fruili and makes only desert wines. The three we had the opportunity to try were:
Muffis dal Sis- 90% Tocai Friulano and 10% Moscato grapes with noblie rot
Verdis dal Sis- 100% Verduzzo grapes (also used to make Ramandolo DOCG)
Piculit dal Sis- 100% from Picolit grapes
All three were excellent. Typical perfumes of dried or candied apricot and fig and spices like cinnamon or cloves. The picolit, probably the more famous of the three, was the last we had and maybe the cleanest. Slightly mineral, sweet but not overbaringly so, fresh and easy to drink. The Verdis was a little more bitter and heavier than the rest, which is typical of the grape. Probably best with aged cheeses like parmagian because of its apricot marmalade/honey-like qualities. The Muffis, the first we had, was also quite fresh and intense, but a bit short in its persistance. Different yet similar to the more famous moldy wine sauternes, I think I would recommend this Muffis to anyone who loves an delightful an delicious desert wine without pretences.
Vote for all three-94/100
Vorremmo scusarci per il ritardo nell'aggiornare il sito però in questi giorni abbiamo traslocato a New York City da Venezia. Quindi abbiate un po' di pazienza e i vostri assaggiatori di buone cose ritorneranno più incisivi che mai in queste pagine.
Forse la migliore sorpresa dell'anno Marco Sara!!!
Ho avuto il piacere di assaggiare i vini dell'Azienda Vinicola di Marco Sara. Un giovane e promettente produttore di vino friulano, vincitore del premio "Menzione Eccellenza 2008" nella IV Edizione del Tigullio vino meeting al Palazzo Ducale di Genova, la cui preferenza va sui vitigni autoctoni come il Tocai Friulano, il Verduzzo Friulano e il Piccolit. Le bottiglie sono dei piacevoli gioielli della viticultura del Bel Paese:
Il Muffis dal Sis da uve muffate di Tocai Friulano per il 90% e Moscato per il 10%.
Il Verdis dal Sis da uve Verduzzo in purezza.
Il Piculit dal Sis da uve Piccolit in purezza.
E' un'esaltazione del gusto,il naso e il palato veramente si inebriano di essenze come l'albicocca e la cannella passando per un tocco di anice. La sapidità e la dolcezza meravigliosamente equilibrate precedono un'intesità e una persistenza difficile da eguagliare. Vini che vanno tutti bevuti in tranqullità o in buona compagnia.
Sicuramente da ricordare il buon Marco Sara.

I do not know if it's just me or if everybody else experiencing problems with your blog. It seems like some of the written text in your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them as well? This could be a problem with my internet browser because I've had
this happen before. Many thanks

These fertility doctors can prescribe medicine that can improve expansion follicles and induce ovulation. There are several ways to bond without breaking the family budget. You should also be extra careful in choosing over the counter drugs to treat genital warts.

Hard Workin
author: theWOODMan
Map: Hard workin
I wanted to create a map that was geared more toward large tractors and equipment. I also tried to use a more logical layout without random barns scattered about and where livestock was located closer to the main farm. I also wanted the ability to put the plow to more good use other than just joining fields.
All default game play, so no mods needed ( no custom missions either, sorry ).
A total of 12 fields are available, but field 1 ( at farm ) is the only one that's ready to reap. All other fields will have to be purchased, cleared of trees and stumps, plowed, tilled, then sown ( that's why this map is called "Hard Workin" ).
Collectable Gold Coins.
AI Pedestrian and Car traffic
Custom models and textures ( and some hidden goodies ).
Perfect for working with large tractors and equipment.
Good for those who like working at night.
Gentle hills and level areas for placeables and custom arrangement.
All default sell points:
Grain, wheat, corn, rape, logs, eggs, wool, wood chips, potatoes, sugar beats.
All standard locations
Store, Warehouse, Freight Yard, Lumberyard, BGA, BHP, Garden Center, Diner, Restaurant.
A more modern, medium sized town to cruise in.
Note: The straw sell point is the small shed located next to the cow stable just in front of the milk robot.
Special thanks to johnny vee for testing.

Feel free to modify as you see fit for your own personal use, but do not use any custom models, textures, or map in part or in whole in any other mods or maps to be uploaded and distributed.
Do not upload this map to any other websites for distribution, I'll handle that.
