OSRAM is one of the world's two leading light manufacturers. With its portfolio, the company covers the entire value chain from components and control gear through to complete luminaires, light management systems and lighting solutions. Together with its subsidiaries Siteco and Traxon Technologies, OSRAM offers complete light solutions for all fields of applications within sports facilities from a single source.
A new mecca for climbing fans has been available since mid-2016 in Telfs, located around 30 kilometres from Innsbruck in Austria. At the "Bergstation", recreational sportsmen, amateur/professional climbers and boulderers can scale 80 routes within a climbing area of more than 1,000 square metres both indoors and outdoors. Osram has developed a customised, high-performance and efficient LED lighting solution for the climbing centre, enabling cost-efficient operation of the system and contributing to climbers having ideal sight and therefore a safe grip throughout.
Osram Lighting Solutions drew up an exacting lighting concept for the Telfs Climbing Centre in the Tyrol region: the operators stipulated standard-compliant, glare-free lighting with high contrast and low shadowing. Simultaneously, the lighting solution had to be highly flexible and guarantee uniform lighting because the climbing routes are frequently modified and optimum visual comfort must always be ensured. The specific technical challenge was to illuminate the climbing walls with as little glare as possible, primarily in the overhang sections and outdoor facilities.
After an intensive inspection of the routes and an analysis of conditions on location, the Osram specialists specified LED trunking luminaires and LED floodlights as the main lighting solutions for the climbing facility. Bright general lighting throughout for indoors is implemented with the Modario PS LED trunking system, with LED track spotlights setting flexible accents. The high lumen-output, uniform illumination of the lead climbing hall and the climbing walls outdoors is implemented with Floodlight 20 Midi LED projectors.
Nordichallen is a modern exhibition and soccer hall with a mobile full-size artificial pitch located north of Sundsvall. It is the home of GIF Sundsvall, a club playing in the Allsvenskan, the Swedish premier league, which uses the hall for daily training, indoor tournaments and friendly games. Thanks to Osram, Nordichallen's lighting has also been of premier-league standard since 2016. Osram Lighting Solutions planned and implemented a new LED hall lighting system which not only saves about 65% energy but also meets the professional lighting requirements of the Swedish football association.
Good lighting is required where speed, precision and on-the-spot decisions are important – for players, referees and spectators. The rule of thumb for sports lighting is that the faster the sport and the smaller the ball, the more light is required – horizontal and especially vertical illuminance levels are essential for spatial awareness.
After careful planning and exact calculations, the existing 500 conventional HID luminaires with 400 W each were replaced with 411 innovative LED luminaires with 181 W each from the Osram subsidiary Siteco in 2016. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology and excellent efficiency they have increased the average lighting level in the hall from 400 lux to 800 lux. The LS160 LED luminaires provide a significantly better quality of light and enable spectators to look directly at the light thanks to satinised prismatic optics for reduced glare. And that is not all. It provides flicker-free light for video recordings – from cell phones to HDTV with super slow motion. (Photo: Effektgruppen AB).

High-performance sport meets high-performance lighting: Osram crowned the celebrations commemorating the 110th brand anniversary with a spectacular event at the top of the Zugspitze. Eight members of Germany's championship winning team, EHC Red Bull Munich, played an evening ice-hockey game in front of a stunning Alpine backdrop, with the help of high-tech lighting provided by Osram.
The rink and its surrounding area were illuminated by floodlights and effect lighting from Osram, turning the event into an impressive mountain-top spectacle. With the game taking place in the background, the Munich lighting company unveiled its latest world first to a broader public. In 2017, the company will be introducing LED lighting integrated into fabrics. Compared with passive elements such as reflectors and signal colours, active lighting considerably improves the visibility and conspicuousness of safety clothing and sportswear. In the ice hockey game on the Zugspitze, at an altitude of just under 3,000 metres, this technology was exposed to extreme conditions. The modern LEDs from Osram, integrated into the clothing, helmets and puck, showed how they can cope with tough sports and freezing temperatures.
In the course of its birthday festivities, Osram has already completed two spectacular lighting projects – the commemorative video projection at the German Patent Office in Berlin and the illumination of the façade of the Westin Excelsior Hotel in Rome, also celebrating its 110th birthday in 2016. The company has now brought its gala activities to a worthy conclusion by turning the spotlight on this high-vis ice hockey game featuring stars from the EHC Red Bull Munich club. Osram has been the lighting partner of the German ice hockey champion since 2014.

The skater scene at the new skate park in Karlsruhe, Germany, is delighted with the excellent conditions for spectacular recordings in super-slow motion thanks to innovative lighting from Osram. The new Floodlight 20 generation of LED floodlights guarantees not only perfect lighting conditions for the stunts of skaters, inliners and BMX riders but also enables the flicker-free recording of skating tricks in super-slow motion.
When it comes to lighting, those who build sports facilities are concerned not only to create the optimum conditions for the event directly on site. For today, moving images and live streaming are also highly important, and filming the world's best athletes in super slow-motion is already a part of today's professional TV technology. Essential for this is state-of-the-art lighting technology – and the same applies to leisure sport and recording with smartphones and video cameras. "A lot of filming goes on during skating. Recordings in super-slow motion are especially popular because these best communicate the abilities of the individual athletes as well as a strong sense of emotion. In this respect it's important that the slow motion is flicker-free. This we've achieved with the lighting," explains Ingo Naschold, Managing Director of the design consultancy DSGN concepts from Münster. "For the construction of the new skate park in Karlsruhe we found in Osram a partner that has enabled implementation of this creative concept professionally and with the best possible lighting technology."
The leisure facility in the Otto-Dullenkopf Park in Karlsruhe was given a complete refurbishment in 2016. The specific requirements for the lighting strategy were identified at an earlier workshop that documented the needs of the system in cooperation with the skating community.

The 2016 UEFA European Championship kicked off on 10 June in the French national stadium near Paris with the opening match between France and Romania - and with floodlights provided by Osram. Osram has equipped not only the stadium in Paris, but also the stadiums in Lille and Marseille with state-of-the-art lighting technology. "We've been supplying the world's largest sports arenas with the best lighting for decades. As a complete solution provider we're able to illuminate everything from a single source, ranging from parking lots, stadium façades and access routes to indoor spaces and the playing field itself," stated Dr. Eladia Pulido, Head of the Osram Lighting Solutions business division.
With a capacity of more than 81,000 spectators, the French national stadium is the largest stadium of this year's host country (Foto: Getty Images Sport / Xavier Laine). A total of seven matches will take place at the location for the European soccer championship, including the final on 10 July 2016. The new floodlight installation for the stadium was sourced from Osram. Consisting of 477 SiCompact R3 luminaires, the system enables brilliant and high-definition quality pictures that even top the standards required by the international football association regarding lighting quality on the playing field. The soccer stadium in Marseille, the second-largest stadium in France, was expanded in capacity to 67,000 seats for Euro 2016. The specification for lighting consisted of creating an impressive appearance for the sports location on the outside, thereby establishing atmosphere and emotion. This has been achieved thanks to the dynamically adjustable light installation from Traxon installed on the undulating façade and roof construction. The system enables colour chases with smooth transitions as well as special effects such as stroboscopic lighting when a goal has been scored. In addition to façade lighting, the floodlighting system was also sourced from Osram. A real eyecatcher is the semi-transparent Traxon media façade at the stadium in Lille. A combination of honeycombed steel mesh and individually controllable LEDs transforms the façade into a giant, transparent screen for displaying images and films with lively colours.
Innovative products for tomorrow's clever towns and cities – as part of this year's Light + Building in Frankfurt, Osram Lighting Solutions will be showing innovative luminaires, intelligent light management systems and a wide range of services across six different sectors for tomorrow's intelligent cities. The spectrum ranges from 'smart-city-ready' outdoor luminaires with parking sensors to sensor and control kits for intelligent, efficient lighting solutions in industrial and office buildings. "Towns and cities in the future will become more intelligent thanks to luminaires and solutions from Osram," stated Eladia Pulido, CEO of the Lighting Solutions business division. The Osram stand at Light + Building is located, as in previous years, in the familiar 'Festhalle' building.
Roads and outdoor applications: The new Street Light Control generation
In the smart city sector Osram Lighting Solutions will be showing a new generation of the Street Light Control system (SLC RF) that connects luminaires in a network wirelessly via radio, based on the new, open IPv6 internet standard. An intelligent radio component in the outdoor luminaire and an integrated antenna make the luminaires 'smart-city-ready'. In a first step, the Streetlight 10, Streetlight 20 and DL 50 LED outdoor luminaires will be equipped with the new wireless system. Information is wirelessly transmitted from light head to light head and communicated with a router via internet to the central control point. The system's high flexibility enables it to intelligently search for another path if a unit fails,
thus remaining fully functional, and this radio network has the ability to become the backbone for completely new smart city services as a comprehensive information network. Efficient parking space management becomes possible for example by integrating specific sensors.
For the start of the new football season, Osram is the official lighting partner of SK Rapid Wien and will illuminate the new Allianz Stadium in Vienna, the grounds of the Austrian record holder. The Osram subsidiary companies Siteco and Traxon will supply not only the floodlight system but also complete lighting solutions for indoor and outdoor applications and will focus mainly on innovative and highly efficient LED technologies. The floodlight installation consists of Siteco SiCompact R3 floodlights with 2000 W lamps from Osram and special electronic control units that illuminate the stadium in absolutely flicker-free light, a factor especially important for super slow-motion sequences with HDTV broadcasting. This technology is currently being used in just a few stadiums around the world. "Our company's managed a hat-trick, because we're now supplying floodlight for the highly successful Vienna team for the third time in succession," stated a pleased Heinrich Sachs, Managing Director, Austria for Osram and Siteco.
Designing sports locations efficiently and effectively with light is a main focus of Osram. "We've been illuminating the world's largest sports arenas in optimum light for decades now and we're pleased to equip the Allianz Stadium in Vienna with the most up-to-date stadium lighting in Austria," said Dr Eladia Pulido, Head of Osram Lighting Solutions. "As a complete solution provider, we're able to illuminate everything from a single source, ranging from parking lots and stadium facades to indoor rooms and playing fields," emphasised Pulido. This is admirably demonstrated by current reference projects such as the San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao (Spain), the Melbourne Cricket Ground (Australia) and many stadiums for large football events. During the 2014 major football event in Brazil for example, seven of the twelve stadiums were equipped with Osram lighting technology.
Siteco Beleuchtungstechnik GmbH
AN OSRAM BUSINESSwww.siteco.de
Prior to the European Games in Baku, Osram equipped the National Gymnastics Arena in Azerbaijan's capital city with an innovative and dynamic lighting system. 600 Traxon Wall Washer Shield AC XB bathe the facade of the arena in colourful light to create impressive combinations such as the national colours of Azerbaijan. 10 transparent screens implemented with a total of 11 km of Traxon media tubes, and constructed to provide supplementary mechanical stability, were fixed to the facade of the sports facility. The sophisticated e:cue control solution activates automatically with the coming of night to then switch off in the morning hours. Pre-programmed sequences play graphic animations and various colour chases across the screens.
Siteco floodlights were installed, illuminating the Baku Olympic Stadium and the nearby warm-up areas, and more than 600 Siteco R3 Maxi 2000W projectors with hot re-ignition are now used for HDTV-compliant pitch lighting. In addition, a further 240 Siteco floodlights and projectors with a variety of distribution characteristics have been installed for stand lighting, providing ideal lighting conditions for both spectators and players. The interiors have also been fitted with more than 25 km of Osram LINEARLight Power Flex for cove lighting. The new multi-functional arena has seating capacity for 68,000 spectators and complies with maximum technical UEFA and FIFA specifications. It will become the home stadium for the Azerbaijan national football team following the first European Games in 2015 and will also be a broadcasting location for the European football championships EURO 2020.
The European Games is an international sports competition with an Olympic character, taking place for the first time from 12 June 2015 onwards, and the Baku Olympic Stadium and the National Gymnastics Arena are two of the total of 18 sports locations.

The Pigro Felice Story
Everything you need to enjoy summers in--and around--the pool. That was what Julian Lagier had in mind when he founded Pigro Felice. "Pigro Felice was created to embody luxurious pool and patio living," explains Lagier. "We aim to reflect a philosophy centered around the aqua-chic lifestyle, where summers should be lazy and happy." The Pigro Felice line includes apparel, accessories and the revolutionary Modul'Air inflatable furniture collection, which allows you to have just the lounging configuration you need both next to the pool and in it.
Why We Love Pigro Felice Products
What's not to love? Pigro Felice inflatable furniture is the best kind of multi-tasker. It is a stylish and comfortable additon to the patio as well as on the water; with a flip of its base module, Pigro Felice furniture goes from comfy poolside lounge furniture to floating pool lounges. It is made using specialty PVC plastic that is tough yet soft to the touch, like fabric.
In case that's not enough, the various modular pieces are easily connected with special straps; so you can have anything from a single puffy square to a veritable island of airy relaxation. The colors are fun (and fun to mix and match). And each Pigro Felice module has magnets that can hold magnetic glasses, which are available to keep drinks nearby and just as stably afloat as you are. For inflatable pool furniture, Pigro Felice designs are the go-to choice.
Noteworthy Products from Pigro Felice
The Modul'Air furniture collection is what Pigro Felice is best known for. But when you need a friend to hang out with near the pool, we think the Inflatable Black Seal is just the right guy for the job.

Giant barbel caught on float fishing tackle
After a season hunting the River Trent's roach and barbel in alternate sessions, Mike Lomas recently found himself adopting his favoured methods for the silvers to target the bigger species - catching this 13lb 13oz specimen as a result.
The speci-hunter fished the river at Newark, using a 15ft float rod and a home-made goose quill Avon-style float to present a maggot hookbait in 10ft of water.
"I catapulted a few pouches of maggots out before I started fishing, and then trotted through four maggots on a size 10 hook. It wasn't long before I hooked into the fish, either," Mike told AT.
"I've caught bigger on legering tactics, but this was by far my favourite fish just due to the tactics I caught it on," he added.

It's time for Weekend Writing Warriors! Every Sunday, a bunch of writers post 8-10-sentence snippets from their WIPs on their blogs. There's a lot of reading, commenting and great writing. Click on the link to see the full list.
I just finished the final edit of this book! Now it's off to a final proofread, and if all goes well, I'll be able to publish by month-end, as planned. I can't quite believe I'm done with this thing! Blurb and cover are below, just in case any of you haven't seen them yet. 🙂 Can you tell I'm excited?
While Kendryk and Gwynneth plot how they might help Landrus, Braeden is trying to make sure they don't succeed. Teodora has just heard that her capital is besieged and is preparing to rush back with Landrus in tow. She's sent Braeden to make sure the prisoner is well-guarded. Braeden is talking to Count Solteszy, Teodora's chief adviser.
"Over there," Solteszy pointed to a heavy wagon with a barred window on the other side of the stableyard.
Braeden rode over to it and jumped down when he got there. "Prisoner inside?" he asked an officer who might have been in charge.
"Aye, sir; we're waiting on further orders."
"I have them. Her Highness wants twenty guards detailed to the prisoner and twenty to her children."
"Is that all?"
"I reckon she wants the rest at the walls of Atlona as soon as possible."
"Does she realize it won't be enough?"
Braeden shrugged. "Not my problem- or yours.".
Poor Braeden doesn't seem to realize that ALL of Teodora's problems are also his, sooner or later.
Previous snippets are here.
When a renegade priest prophesies an imminent apocalypse, a conflict is sparked which will tip a continent into war.
Prince Kendryk is young, handsome and popular, his kingdom prosperous and peaceful. But in the face of the prophesied apocalypse, he must choose between conscience and power. If he chooses the side of the faith, he must defy the ruthless Empress Teodora, ruler of a vast empire, imperiling kingdom and family— but if he chooses the side of power, he risks plunging his world into a darkness worse than war.
The coming conflict will touch the lives of thousands, among them…
Prince Kendryk's adored wife, Gwynneth, the proud daughter of a king, whose ambition may come at great cost…
Braeden, a violent mercenary, commander of a legendary winged army, who will find himself in the service of an employer he must defy to protect those he holds dear…

I remember seeing this famous quote from a video on AngularJS saying that should be always using a . (dot) in your models.
Well I am trying to follow this say I have
var item = {}
item.title = "Easy Access to support";
item.available = true;
item.price = 31.67;
{{ item.title }}
{{ item.available }}
$scope.disableButton = true;
The "there should always be a dot in your model" refers to
ngModel. This directive does two-way binding. If you two-way bind to a primitive (such as a Boolean in your case), the setter will set it on the current scope rather than the scope on which it is defined, which can cause a headache when you have a large user-interface with a lot of child scopes. It does not refer to other directives such as
ngDisable. See this explanation for more details on this specific issue.
Sample scenario: a parent scope with
$scope.foo = "bar", and a child scope with a
<input type="text" data-ng-model="foo">. It will display
bar initially, but once the user changes the value, a
foo will be created on the child scope and the binding will read and write that value. The parent's
foo will remain
bar. Hope that summarises it well.
So for
ngModel purposes, you might have to create an object to work around such binding issues, but for any other directive you should have the regular, logical grouping.

EWTN Week Starts Tonight!
Tonight I'll be appearing on "The Journey Home" program on EWTN with Marcus Grodi. Marcus interviewed me recently about my journey from nominal Catholicism to agnosticism, to Protestant ministry, and eventually home to the Catholic Church. You can watch it at 8 PM, or catch it in live streaming format on EWTN's website. It will re-air on Tuesday, July 19, at 1 AM & 9 AM, Thursday, July 21 at 2 PM, and Saturday, July 23, at 11 PM (all times Eastern). The entire weekly EWTN schedule can be found here.
I also had a chance to guest on the "Deep in Scripture" radio program, also hosted by Marcus, which will air this Wednesday at 2 PM on EWTN radio, and at this link: We had a great time exploring John 21 and the implications of that text for the Papacy.
This week, I guess it's all EWTN, all the time!

What's hiding in the shadows?
Probably something that came from the mind of fantasy horror creator Clive Barker and was brought to you by Mark Miller, Chapman University alum and vice president of Seraphim Inc. – the company that brings Barker's ideas to life in books, art and movies.
"Clive is very much a renaissance man. There isn't anything he doesn't do," said Miller. "And so my job entails every facet of the art and entertainment world. We have comic books, books, movies, TV shows, gallery exhibitions and video games all coming down the pipeline."
Miller worked his way into and upward at Seraphim Inc. through determination and doing a lot for a little, he said. He came to the company as a fan and an intern who was willing to work long hours for no pay.
"There's really something to be said for perseverance. I stuck around and put in the time until I was asked to come on board as a part-time employee," said Miller. "That quickly turned into full time and slowly I rose through the ranks until I found myself as the second in command. It's all a bit surreal but hard work really does pay off. My grandmother and mother taught me that by example. And I'll carry that ethic with me all my life."
Now fully entrenched in the horror and fantasy world, Miller said it is hard for him to pick his favorite scare.
"That's a tough call. Scary is my business. And I just love so many things out there that it's hard to choose. On the movie side, there's a film called "Trouble Every Day," which is a tense little mystery movie with Vincent Gallo. It'll stick with you for days," said Miller.
As for his favorite scary book, there's a short story written by C.L. Moore called "Shambleu."
"The way the story ends is just terrifying. I haven't gone back to either of these pieces since I first digested them. But even as I write this, I can feel them getting under my skin. What more can you ask of a scary story," said Miller.
As for scary and fantastical things that he's working on, there's some on the way.
"Currently, Clive and I are co-writing a comic book called "Next Testament," which comes out monthly. I've overseen the production on his next novella, "Chiliad," which is being released by Subterranean Press in January," said Miller.

Friendly Plastic® has a shelf life if not properly stored. Exactly what that shelf life is, is unknown, with so many determining factors to be considered. The main points of this section is to help you purchase fresh Friendly Plastic®, suggest a few storing options, and share a little trick for reconditioning old Friendly Plastic®.
- WARNING: With the renewed interest in Friendly Plastic®, a lot of old product is re-surfacing like buried treasure and being put up for auction. Buyers Beware!
- Purchasing – When purchasing Friendly Plastic®, you want to make sure the plastic is fresh. You do this by giving it the flex-test, simply give the stick a little bend, it should flex quite easily and then straighten back out. If it snaps in half, you guessed it… it's a SNAPPER (old plastic). This is where ordering on-line can be a problem. My suggestion is to make sure you are ordering from a reputable dealer. Try to resist de-stash bargains and auctions. You want a guarantee that the plastic is fresh, be sure the dealer offers this.
- Storing – Keep your plastic in a closed container or zip-lock bag, when not in use. This seems to be the trick to longevity.
- Reconditioning – If you have SNAPPERS (old plastic), all is not lost. Old Friendly Plastic® can be reconditioned. Here is how: Place the sticks on a nonstick pan and either place the pan onto a griddle or into an oven, temperature set at 200°F (a heat tool will not work). Allow the plastic sticks to soften completely. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the sticks to cool completely on their own. DO NOT run them under cold water. Once they have cooled, remove them from the pan and check the flexibility. Hopefully this has done the trick. It is not fool proof, but it does work most of the time.

Police say boosting ranks not the only answer
The New South Wales Lower Hunter crime manager says extra police in the Tilligerry Peninsula would not have done much to prevent a fire which destroyed a sporting complex at Mallabula yesterday.
The fire was deliberately lit and investigations are under way.
The Tilligerry community and police union are calling for a new local area police command to be established at Raymond Terrace to boost policing in the Port Stephens region.
Detective Chief Inspector Peter Fox says having more officers is not the only answer.
"We can't have police absolutely everywhere, it's an impossibility," he said.
"We rely on a lot of information from the public because there's a lot more people out there than we've got police and we rely on their observations, and with this particular incident, if anyone out there has seen anything or has any knowledge about it, we'd ask them to contact Raymond Terrace detectives."

Dann blazed local trails in business, political life
By SCOTT TAYLOR HARTZELL
© St. Petersburg Times, published December 20, 2000
ST. PETERSBURG -- In 1933, a banner headline raced across the front page: "HERMAN A. DANN DROWNS IN LAKE."
Dann, a local business and political leader, suffered a heart attack while swimming. He was 44 years old. "Florida and St. Petersburg have lost a wonderful man," said Peter Tomasello, then speaker of the Florida House.
For 17 years, Dann ran a building supply concern here. He was a local and state chamber of commerce president and a Democratic state legislator. His efforts brought the Veterans Administration hospital to Bay Pines.
"He was a tiger," said Philip W. Dann, 55, a grandson.
"He took a leading part in virtually every project designed to lend impetus to the city's improvement," the St. Petersburg Times reported.
Dann was born in Titusville, Pa., in 1889. He moved to St. Petersburg in 1913, shortly after graduating from Lafayette College with a philosophy degree.
He was first a civil engineer with the St. Petersburg Investment Company. He was "always a worker to be depended upon," journalist W.L. Straub wrote.
Dann later built a home here in what the Philadelphia press called a "millionaire colony." The house is in the historic Roser Park district at 800 Seventh Ave. S.
In 1916, two years after buying an interest in and presiding over the Southern Concrete and Construction Co., Dann married Helen Thomasson. The couple had three children.
In 1917, Dann established the Dann-Gerow Co., a building supply concern. Within six years, the million-dollar business' volume increased 500 percent. Historian Karl Grismer called Dann's company "one of the largest of its kind in Florida."
In the 1920s, Dann was a director of the Central National Bank, the Mason Hotel Co. and the Tampa Northern Railroad. The press labeled him a "brilliant, forceful, vigorous personality . . . an organizing genius."
Dann, a man of "large affairs," presided over the local chamber of commerce in 1922. The Times dubbed his administration "one of the most successful in the (chamber's) history."
As president of the state chamber of commerce, Dann pushed for "good roads to unify Florida." He declined re-election for a fifth term in 1929 but remained a chamber executive committee member.
Dann, who once said the city could manage for some time without a mayor or commissioners, was elected to the Florida Legislature in 1931. "He was a great orator," said Helen Dann, 30, his great-great-granddaughter.
"A very confident type," said Dan Sullivan, 80, who as a child knew Dann.
During Herbert Hoover's frugal presidency, Dann "was . . . the driving force behind" a veterans hospital, the Times wrote. "Dann mounted a spirited campaign," historian Ray Arsenault wrote. The hospital's construction commenced in 1932 at Bay Pines.
"They were touting him for governor then," said Martha Long Dann, 80, Dann's daughter-in-law.
At 4 p.m. on Sept. 27, 1933, Dann left the hospital and headed for his lodge, 22 miles northwest of Tampa. On the way, Dann told his friend A.H. Stoughton he felt ill.
Dann improved about 7:30 p.m. after "a few" sandwiches. Thirty minutes later, he entered Grandma's Lake with Stoughton, the secretary-treasurer of the St. Petersburg Novelty Works.
The swimming stopped 40 feet from shore when Dann "threw up his hands and sank without uttering a word," the press wrote.
Stoughton searched unsuccessfully for Dann in the 18-foot-deep water. He then swam ashore, called an ambulance and sent an attendant to a nearby Boy Scout camp for help.
Scout leader N.W. Barratt and three others surfaced the body with grappling hooks about an hour after it had disappeared.
The president of Dann-Gerow Co. "never showed signs of responding," the Times reported.
Family members told the Evening Independent that Dann recently had a "heart ailment." Joe S. Clark, a hospital board member, said that Dann had complained the day before of heart pains.
Dann often blamed the pain on overwork. A Williams Park concert paused to honor Dann the evening after his death. "He was so well-known," said resident Samuel W. Harris, 81.
Mourners traveled from afar to attend Dann's services at Royal Palm Cemetery. "He made friends easily and numbered them among leaders in both politics and industry through the entire land," the Times wrote.

The Edmonton student who was suspended after attempting to draw attention to racism at her school, has won her fight to get her punishment wiped from her record.
Paige Sernowski, 16, has already served a two-day suspension from M.E. LaZerte school in north Edmonton, but with the help of a lawyer has now been able to get it rescinded.
"I never thought I did anything wrong," said Sernowski.
The Grade 11 student landed in trouble last month after spotting what she describes as a racist photo on Snapchat on Feb. 11.
She still can't believe she was suspended for calling out something she thought was wrong.
"It was stressful. I was worried about my record. It was a lot to handle."
The photo, taken in the hallway at her high school, showed a black student in the foreground with a caption underneath that read, "Get out of my way n****rs."
She captured the image and quickly posted it on Twitter, aiming to expose something she saw as hurtful. But her efforts earned her a two-day suspension.
"I took a stand for something I knew was wrong." said Sernowski, adding she hasn't felt welcome at the school since then.
Following the suspension, Edmonton labour and employment lawyer Patrick Nugent offered his services for no charge.
His appeal letter argues that the suspension "is not in accordance with M.E. LaZerte or board policy" and that the decision "punishes a student for raising concerns about racism at the school."
Nugent adds that the result could create an environment where other students are discouraged from bringing forward concerns.
'Gross overreaction'
The appeal letter, dated Feb. 29, makes the point that Sernowski has already served her suspension, but asks it be removed from her academic record. Nugent also asks for Sernowski to receive a public and private apology.
"The decision to suspend Ms. Sernowski was an unreasonable and gross overreaction when lesser discipline or perhaps using this opportunity to teach Ms. Sernowski and her peers about the preferred method of reporting racist bullying online, would have been appropriate," the letter states.
A few days later, the principal of the school confirmed the suspension was going to be rescinded and removed from Sernowski's record.
The principal met with the teen and her mother the next day to confirm that decision.
"I'm glad it's off my record and I'm glad they saw what they did was wrong," said Sernowski.
Still she says no official apology has been made, something her parents have also been hoping to see.
'It did make an impact on the school'
Sernowski is now keen to make a fresh start and move to another school, but is pleased to see some anti-racism initiatives happening at M.E. LaZerte.
"It did make an impact on the school." said Sernowski.
She said the student leadership group went from class to class asking people how they would react to seeing examples of racism.
Sernowski believes the same group is behind posters that have appeared at the school.
The father of the teenage student in the photo supported Sernowski's efforts to call out racism.
Nasri Warsame welcomes the decision to rescind her suspension, but questions whether it would have happened if Sernowski's lawyer was not involved.
Warsame also said the racist posting left scars in the hearts of many students hearts. He hopes the school is working on a healing process.
The Edmonton Public School Board has never discussed the suspension with Sernowski, or what happened to the student behind the initial post due to privacy polices.
But the board said any allegations of abuse or discrimination of any kind are taken seriously, and that the safety and dignity of students is paramount.

PACKED together like sardines, these incredible images reveal the dangerous and desperate attempts migrants are making in the hope of finding a better life.
More than 2,000 migrants arrived in Italy this week, bringing to a close an international operation to rescue refugees who had packed into 25 boats and travelled from Libya.
The migrants were taken to three Italian ports, with the largest contingent of 1,300 arriving at the southern Italian city of Taranto onboard a navy ship Etna, according to media reports.
The refugees, including hundreds of women and dozens of babies, were rescued as part of the Italian navy's "Mare Nostrum" operation, launched last year by Rome after two boats sank in October leaving more than 400 dead.
The majority of the migrants rescued at the weekend were Syrian and Sudanese.
They were likely to be taken to refugee centres across Italy.
With standing room only, the asylum seekers are pictured in large boats, crammed in together.
A second contingent of 529 migrants were taken to the Sicilian capital, Palermo.
This group, transported to port on the Panamanian cargo ship City of Sidon, included 120 women, a dozen of them pregnant, and 19 children.
Thousands of refugees have been taken to Sicily in recent days where they are processed, though officials on the island said on the weekend they were no longer able to cope with the influx of people.
Many had no choice but to lie almost on top of each other, as they were rescued by the Italian Navy.
A third group of 211 asylum-seekers were taken to another Sicilian port, Pozzallo, but are likely to be transferred to another location as reception centres there already hold more than 400 people.
The operation to rescue the migrants involved the Italian, Maltese and US navies.
Favourable weather conditions mean that thousand of migrants from Syria, Eritrea and other sub-Saharan countries have arrived or are expected to arrive on the Italian coast in the coming days.
Italy says that more than 50,000 migrants have landed on its shores since the start of this year — around the same number as for the whole of last year.
Neighbouring Malta says 2,200 have arrived on its islands.
Gil Arias Fernandez, the head of Frontex, the European Union border coordination agency, said recently that "hundreds of thousands" of migrants were currently in Libya and hoping to leave as soon as possible because of growing lawlessness.
Italian Interior Minister Angelino Alfano estimated that number at between 400,000 and 600,000 people.

I was able to put in some marathon sewing hours this week (thanks to a patient and helpful mom and dad) and this is the finished product! I absolutely love this quilt. I was able to long-arm quilt it, and even went a little crazy and did pebble quilting in the borders. I almost cried when it was done, I was so happy. I felt a little decadent–the back is made up almost entirely of KJR blue basketweave. It is one of my favorite prints, I had the fabric, and I decided to use it all up! When I see the prices of this print on etsy, I cringe a little bit, but then I reminded myself that I bought it for $5 a yard and it is there to be used.
In case you are wondering, I made four extra blocks because I wanted this quilt to be a bit bigger. I had planned to include additional traditional blocks, but decided that I loved the Sampler blocks (and didn't want to figure out the math for additional ones). I cut the sashing at 3.5 inches (3 inches finished), and the outside border is cut at 6 inches (5.75 without the binding). I loved my blocks, but with all of that color, they were a bit frenetic. I think the white (or rather, kona snow, which I had to call 15 quilt shops to find, and drive 40 minutes to purchase so I could finish my quilt) sets the blocks off quite nicely.
