Why does anyone really care who I give simpathy to?

Simpathy to automakers.. ? what would be the point? Does my simpathy (deserved or not ) actually change anything?
For California laws .. it is between the consumers and the legislature.
It is not between consumers and automakers.
And in California.. they get what they asked (voted) for.
As for zero emissions? there are no such thing/item.

Sympathy for the devil
Dave Palmer
Login to Rate
Honestly, no, I don't sympathize with any corporate executive who whines about having to obey the law. We live in a nation of laws, and we all have to follow them, whether we agree or not. As a matter of fact, the way laws are made in this country tends to (strongly!) favor corporate interests, since politicians rely on their money to win re-election. So corporate interests should have the least right to complain of anyone.
Maybe automotive executives are not
lighting cigars with hundred-dollar bills, but they aren't exactly struggling either (regardless of what happens to their companies). If I were looking for someone to sympathize with in this economy, they wouldn't exactly top my list.
The new California law may not be the most effective way to protect air quality, and there are probably more intelligent ways to achieve the same goals. But I'm not going to stay up at night crying about its effects on automakers' profits.

Re: In the end the New Car Buyer decides.

While my father worked for a large auto manufacturing company I had to wait until I was over the age of 12 to tour the plant he worked in. I was a little older than that when I finally entered the soul killing dark greasy plant. I could not believe how the smell of machining coolant hung in the air, that no light came through the windows, and how hot it was. My father had 10 brothers and sisters working at the 4 various plants in the city. He asked witch one of my relatives I would like to visit first I asked to see one of my uncles. I said Uncle Roy he replied that he was playing cards at this moment. I then asked to see another relative and he said that person was sleeping. I asked well who is working. He said lets go see Fred he is working, my uncle Fred was working in quality control. As we got to Freds work station he was busy counting to 25 then throwing one of the transmission parts into a failed box. I noticed he had a working unit in the test station that he would whack with a hammer every now and again and it would start working for a short while after he hit with a mallet. He explained that none of the units worked as designed but when he failed them all the administration would come down on him hard. The management claimed that the engineers predicted a one in 20 fail rate at the most. Thus about every 25th unit he put into the failed box. That was interesting to my teenaged self. We went to my fathers work station he was a tool setter. He set the tools in the multiprocess machines and was very good at it. That really impressed me because my father had dropped out of school during the 8th grade because the large family needed some of the children to support themselves at that time in our history. I asked my father how long he trained to do his job he replied about 3 months to do the job but you had to do this job for about a year to get good at it and fast enough to suit the company. We roomed through the plant with him explaining the operation and introducing me to just about every person on the production floor. Finally he took me to a break area to wait for him to finish his shift. Once in the car he said well what do you think? I told him I didnt want to hurt his feelings but I never wanted to work there. He laughed and said that was the purpose of the trip and he would like to hear my plan to escape his fate. I told him that I was going to be a carpenter so I could work outside. He liked that idea and asked what else I had thought about the plant. I blurted out that if part of the crew was sleeping and other playing cards while getting paid that I thought someone speaking Japanese would have their jobs one of these days. His face turned red he clinched his jaw trying to control his response. Then he started telling me that I knew nothing of what it was like working there and dealing with corporate greed. He tried to explain the give and take of the worker, the union and the corporation. He made some pretty good points. Then I tried to explain how it would take me years to learn how to build a house and earn less than him that took less than a year to learn his job. At that point I realized I should stop arguing with my father and just learn and one day show him.

What a load of right-wing claptrap. Might as well be a Rush Limbaugh site.
The bosses of US automakers deserve no sympathy whatsoever. They have dug their own grave over the last several decades by pushing one nonsense after another onto ordinary working folks, both employees and customers. Trouble is we get shoved in their grave and they (the bosses) waltz away with their golden parachutes. Now California tries to whap them on the side of the head to make them wake up and take some responsibility for our future. Does not work though. They just call out the disinformation army again.

In the end the New Car Buyer decides.
Login to Rate
No matter how many mandates, rules and regulations, ultimately the consumer and to be specific the New Vehicle Buyer, makes the ultimate decision.
BMW, Daimler, and few others have for years paid millions in EPA/NHTSA fines for not meeting the CAFE Standard, and their vehicles are still selling well and are desirable.
Attempts like the SMART to convince Americans that they need such a vehicle have been the ultimate failure for Automotive "midas" like Penske.
Every SATURN ever made was sold at loss of about $900 per vehicle, in an attempt by GM to gain market share. (GM disclosure during the bankruptcy)
The previous CAFE mandate only moved people from cars and station wagons into pick-ups and SUV, while the over all MPG average actually declined by about 1 MPG in 20 years.
Safety features to save speeding drunk drivers that refuse to wear seatbelts from certain demise increased the average vehicle weight by almost 1,000 lbs, that requred more engine power which in turn used about the same amount of fuel per mile driven, but with lot more computerized and expensive technology.
If everyone in USA would drive the Japanese style Kei-car, then overnight we would reduce our fuel consumption by 40%.
But the hope for that is the same as declaring that all World's problems will be immediately solved if all people adopt the "same" religion.
In theory it works, in reality it will never happen.
But ultimately people do NOT have to buy a "new" vehicle, and of about 1/2 the price of a current "new" car, they can restore 20 to 30 year old "classic" and drive it almost "forever".
The biggest benefit is that the old restored car will keep its value and will not depreciate (or can actually appreciate).
Plus the side benefit for the tree huggers, it takes lot less energy and resources to restore 25 year old car, than to make a new one!

California has lost it!
Login to Rate
The state is overflowing with people who are willing to settle for the status quo.
They are drowning in people who don't belong there who have swamped the "system". Then they vote for wing nuts who don't do anythig about it.
If everyone was required to do and pay their fair share, then money would not be a problem and neither would pollution because the deadbeats would have to leave.
They even settle for having unconstitutional gun laws pushed on them. No wonder they are up to their necks in gangs and thugs. Only the outlaws have guns!
Wake up people...we incorporated the governments to do look after our business...Not to tell us what to do. It is time to take government back....all of them!
The day is coming...Be Prepared!

Re: Sympathy for the automakers:

You got it almost right; Just delete "California" in front of "is that too many..." Our so-called 'lawmakers" ignore the prime law: the law of Unintended Consequences. This is true from the highest level (US Congress & Senate) to the lowest (local governments, school districts, etc.) Combine that with the corruption that is endemic (both "official" criminalized kinds and structural types like special-interest laws and loopholes), and I'm ALMOST ready to revert to my youthful romance with anarchism! The bloated bureaucracies that constitute the vast bulk of the Executive branch have long abandoned the legitimate purposes for which they were ostensibly created. In the automotive industry, the NHTSA has created an incomprehensible amount of gobbledygook posing as "Safety requirements" that in MOST cases doesn't even properly define the goal of the regulation or specify the technical requirements! See my recent post about airbag disablement for passenger seats for an excellent example. That took up 500+ pages of the Federal Register for a totally ineffective regulation that hardly anyone has implemented properly in the sense of meeting the intent (but every car passes the test....). Regardless, I have little sympathy for the US auto industry as a whole; a very good case can be made that it has been on a downward slope for nearly 50 years. The fault lies heavily on generations of inept, arrogant management whose long-term planning horizon was measured in fiscal quarters, while the foriegn competition generally worked on 10 and 20-year plans. Unfortunately, arrogance knows no nationality, and Jpanaese and European automakers have been infected as well over vthe past 10 years.

Re: Evs in California
Common sense
Login to Rate
And so the wisdom of Forrest Gump shows again, "Stupid is as stupid does." CA is probably one of the worst environments in the U.S. to even use EVs, with abnormally long daily commutes, and they import the energy they use. It makes no sense. The people of CA have dug themselves into a deep hole of ecomomic disaster by continuously voting in these liberal Democrates. None of the automakers can survive by selling cars at zero or negative margins, and will not just absorb a $5000 hit on each none EV they sell, and non-EV will be 99.9% of what they sell. In a fair world we would go back to having CA only cars and 49 state cars, and the poeple in CA can enjoy a $5000 up charge in all of the cars they buy while the rest of us are unaffected by this nonsense. Unfortunately, I anticipate the automakers will spread this added cost across the board, so that all of us get to pay extra for this foolishness. Basically all that is happening is that CA is in such a financial mess that they are charging a $5000 tax on each car sold in CA, and everybody in the country will be paying this tax to CA. As for the new milage standards that have come out of Washington, this is ample evidence that nobody in the EPA, or the Whitehouse, knows anything about simple physics or chemistry.

issues tabled here remind me of the story about the gardener with an elephant in his garden asking 'what's the best kind of vegetable to plant along my garden fence?' Throwing together the past, present and future directions of a global auto industry with the current economic state of the nation and adding in issues of global energy consumption and global warming makes for a difficult issue to talk about! I fear that no bandaid approach is going to get rid of the elephant. After all, this country went out of its way to build a giant infrastructure of wide roadways while during the same period we promoted urban sprawl and killed off public rail transportation. Now the country is complaining that people won't accept more expensive, smaller cars with less range? A textbook example of ignoring systems engineering! The best thing we can do to promote change is, today, before it is too late, promote our teachers and educators to the highest status we can and make sure our children get a decent education in reason and above all else, science. Maybe then our children will not make the same mistakes we have.

Smart Machines Make the Grade for Control Applications
June 20, 2pm EDT Thursday
For industrial control applications, or even a simple assembly line, that machine can go almost 24/7 without a break. But what happens when the task is a little more complex? Thats where the smart machine would come in. The smart machine is one that has some simple (or complex in some cases) processing capability to be able to adapt to changing conditions. Such machines are suited for a host of applications, including automotive, aerospace, defense, medical, computers and electronics, telecommunications, consumer goods, and so on. This radio show will show whats possible with smart machines, and what tradeoffs need to be made to implement such a solution.

Bo Howard earned his share of credit in two baseball games Saturday.
Garrett Pagel homered in both games as the Merrill baseball team scored a pair of wins in the Lakeland tournament Saturday.
Wausau East hockey coach Dan Bauer has resigned from his coaching position.
For a short time Friday afternoon, the biggest and loudest cheers for Marshfield's Tanner Hayes and Zach Ott were coming from an unlikely source.
Wausau West slipped to second place in the Wisconsin Valley Conference with a doubleheader split Thursday against D.C. Everest.
Molly Peck had three hits and doubled in a run in her first varsity game, then she followed with four strikeouts as a pitcher in the next game of Wausau East's doubleheader sweep Friday.
Marathon softball opened the WIAA Division 3 softball playoffs in a big way.
Pitcher Kyncaide Diedrich limited Edgar to two hits and struck out nine over six innings to propel the Athens softball team to a 10-0 win in a WIAA Division 3 regional contest Thursday.
Jordan Huehnerfuss singled home the winning run to seal Wausau West baseball's 10-9 victory over Merrill in eight innings Wednesday in a Wisconsin Valley Conference game.
Wausau East baseball started strong Thursday thanks to Cole Nelson.
Five different players scored goals and keepers Steph Meuret and Kayla Rogan weren't required to make a save as the D.C. Everest girls soccer team blanked Wisconsin Rapids 5-0 in a Wisconsin Valley Conference matchup Thursday night.
Mosinee senior Sarah Vils broke her own Great Nothern Conference record in the 200-meter dash to win the event at the Great Northern Conference meet Thursday.
The Wisconsin Valley Conference track season ended Tuesday with the two most dominant teams in the conference picking up another trophy.
The individual race is shapping up to be a two-horse showdown between Wausau West's Matt Sandquist and Stevens Point Area Senior High's Trevor Thomas.
Maggie DeLoye scored in the fourth minute as the Wausau West girls soccer team beat Wisconsin Rapids 1-0 on Monday for the Warriors second win over the Raiders in a week, and just the third against the program since 1999.
Nate Lemmens saw Mike Krzyzewski at least once and Bo Ryan a few more times than that over the last year.

Would rather NOT have the girls' first names on their ears and badges, do they do middle names? We have a Sunshine and a Darling so thought I would ask....LOL
Castmembers really shouldn't be able to tell you what's an acceptable name to put on a name tag. Who are they to say that "sunshine" is an unacceptable name? I've even had my screen name put on badges in the past. Only once, about 2 years ago, was I hassled about it, and I simply told them that was my name and to please put it on my name tag.
Come see Disneyland at it's most beautiful!
On the flip side, they refused to put "Willie" as a nickname for William.
And don't spend your time lookin' around for something you want that can't be found.
When you find out you can live without it and go along not thinkin' about it, I'll tell you something true:
The bare necessities of life will come to you!
They wouldn't put DD on a tag for me. My friend Jeff did get a Tink badge with his name on it - the CM was reluctant.
What name wouldn't they put on their for you? I know they don't do names like Grandma and Grandpa and stuff. Grrr! I don't get it, if it isn't offensive who cares?
Well, that's just it. They seem to have a low tolerance. For example, the word "Dyke" would not make it onto a nametag.Originally Posted by potterphreak
Insert passive aggressive sentence of your choice here.
I just wanted the letters "DD". I knew there was no way they were going to put my screen name on, I didn't even ask. But I have tried a couple of times to get DD and no luck. A couple of years ago for my birthday we did a Princess Birthday Party (I was 34) and gave keychains to the attendees. We were able to do more that time - Lala, Bear, Sissy and Ping with no problems. I haven't been able to get these names done on 50th Name Tags for the same people. I do know people have talked CMs into doing names they shouldn't ( A friend got a "Not w/ Tim" made - it took a lot of convincing) It's all about getting a CM willing to bend the rules. There was a large amount of flirting involved - I am certain of it.
When you go to buy them, just dont make a big deal out of it. They will have your write what you want on a reciept/ order paper. If you draw attn to it, and make a big deal they are more likely to question it.
It all depends on who is doing the hats too. Some CM's are cool about what you want to put on there. I have some friends that tried to get their VMK names put on their ears and were told no, but the next day one of them tried again and the CM did it.
I agree with hlbtimes2 though, just don't make a big deal and they should do it for you!

As far as "DD" goes, I don't see why they wouldn't do it. Maybe I do like others have suggested and I don't make a big deal of it and the one time I wsa questioned, I acted surprised that the castmember would even ask. Just tell them that DD is your name (or the name of the person you're getting it for) and please do it. People go by "JT" and such, why not "DD"?
I'm sure it's all up to the castmember behind the counter. Some people are more rules bound than others. I, obviously, am not very rules bound... practically to the point of subversive.
(but I like it that way)

I'm trying to remember if I had to show ID when I got my last set of ears done. No one believes me when I tell them my name is Silence.
I'll be getting my 50th ears in December, I hope I don't have problems then!
I got MammaSilva on my ears but couldn't get them on my 50th name tag when I went a couple weeks ago. I didn't hassle the CM I just bought a blank and brought it home, I'll take it to a local place and they'll do it, I'll pay a lot more but I'll have my custom name tag.

I don't think Sunshine will be *too* hard because some people have that as their first name but Darling? I think that might be difficult. <sigh> What WAS her mother thinking? HA! I'm one too talk!
I have said it before....
It totally depends on the CM and how you ask. Some will say yes easily... some will not.
Just be pollite - don't make a big deal out of it - and hold your ground that it is a legitimate name.....
If they continue to say NO you can always ask another CM later....
The policy is to ONLY do proper names - but we have all seen that bent many times at the park....
There is a RUMOR that if you ask a cast member THREE times they need to say yes on the 4th.....

They don't ask for ID's...my ears have my VMK avatars name on them and so does my daughters pirate hat..

oh brother! Again, if it's not offensive, what difference does it make? I would explain to the CM that you don't want your daughters names on there.
As a side note, when I was a child, names on shirts were a big thing. I was at the state fair, and this stranger walks up to me and called me by my name. I was a kid. It didn't occur to me my name was on my SHIRT. But I was nice and friendly and even was talking to him because he knew my name. THANK GOD it wasn't a predator. I probably would have left with him!
I was in Walmart with my daughter last week, she has a key chain we just got from DL, and wears it on her DL sweatshirt on the zipper.. this lady said, "bye Kelsey".. and my daughter said, "how do you know my name"..
I am saying this because you're right! I think it's smart not to have your kids names on there. Our kids don't have "pet names" so we just got their names on their hats, but I wouldn't let them wear them anywhere. They were bought for souvenirs only.
I think this needs to be brought to Disney's attention. Parents shouldn't HAVE to put their kids names on their hat if they don't WANT to. Again, if it's not offensive, it should be allowed. But, that's only MY opinion.
Disney trips: 1974, 1990, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 & 2007!
I'm waiting for it to hit the fan...
Last time there was a post like this everyone was going on and on and on about don't ask the CM's for special favors, they could lose their jobs.. blah blah blah.

it's upsetting but they really do card people sometimes! & I've seen people pleading with CM's but they say it's "policy". of course some do get there way after asking several times politely!

An extremely good point! it really does need to be brought to their attention! it's ridiculous that you can dress up as any character(they sell the costumes, & wigs!) but you can't get a name tag with that characters name! also really not a good idea with real names on them in this day & age! It's bad enough that it's so easy to steal someone's identity. no one uses my real name anymore! it's sort of my secret password.Originally Posted by Whittibo

You could always write down the names and hand them to the engraver on a piece of paper. If he/she challenges one or the other, just give your rationale for wanting to get their middle names on the badges. I hope it works out for you.Originally Posted by potterphreak

And what technicality is that? Who does own ArrowTech then?
It's a 50/50 split between Jeremy McClean and SuperAguri. Which is exactly why Melrose left the team in the first place
It's irrelevant anyway, the exact wording of the regulation is "one team per series per user", therefore 50/50 splits are not exempt (Jeremy McLean has partial control of two teams) and this would still be a breach of 2015 regulations.

Attorneys for defendants in a lawsuit filed on behalf of those affected by the West Point train derailment say the suit should move to federal court.
The attorneys submitted to Hardin Circuit Court a notice of removal to do so. The notice cites several reasons Hardin Circuit Court wouldn't have jurisdiction over the class action lawsuit concerning the Oct. 29 train derailment in West Point, including the number of plaintiffs the lawsuit represents and the amount of money the suit seeks in damages.
The lawsuit was brought by West Point residents Becky Brown, Michael C. Smith and Susan E. Morgan and Meade County resident James Perry Jr. The plaintiffs have filed on behalf of others who also were affected by the derailment.
The lawsuit has been filed against Paducah & Louisville Railway Inc., P&L Transportation, R.J. Corman Railroad Group LLC, Center for Toxicology and Environmental Health LLC and CSX Transportation.
The notice of removal was filed Dec. 10. In it, attorneys for the defendants claim federal court has jurisdiction over the case under the Class Action Fairness Act of 2005. The act says federal court has jurisdiction when a class involves at least 100 people, when plaintiffs and defendants involved are from different states and when the amount of money involved exceeds $5 million.
The notice claims the plaintiffs are representing at least 100 people, because West Point's 900 residents, among others, were forced to evacuate their homes. The class of plaintiffs includes residents of Kentucky and Indiana while the defendants are from other states.
The notice also claims the plaintiffs likely are seeking at least $1 million in compensatory damages, and punitive damages could be much more than that.
The Paducah & Louisville train derailed Oct. 29 near the Hardin-Jefferson County line. The railcars carried chemicals, including butadiene and hydrogen fluoride, and at least one car leaked butadiene.
Two days later, an explosion at the site ignited a fire. The derailment and explosion led to evacuations and shelter-in-place orders for residents and shut down a portion of U.S. 31W.
Residents again were evacuated and traffic rerouted when the derailed cars were removed from the site.
Lavinda Curl, a member of West Point City Council, said she believes most residents have received some sort of restitution by now, and have resumed their routines.
"I think that life has returned to normal here," she said.

They went through 14 games unbeaten until last weekend as the defending state champion Blue Sky Eagles fell to Highwood 35-12. The Mountaineers used a 21-point third quarter to get the job done.
Blue Sky scored first as Eric Marshall rushed from 30 yards out. Highwood answered, going up 7-6 at the end of one.
The Mountaineers scored first in the second quarter, going up 14-6, but the Eagles answered as Joey Stuart caught a 30-yard pass from Justin Simenson. At the half Highwood led 14-12.
It was all Highwood in the third quarter as the Mountaineers rattled off 21 unanswered points.
Rocky Boy picked up its second win of the season as it downed Brady 44-20.
The first Stars score was a 33-yard run by Nathan Meyers, followed by a brother combination of Darrell and Dustin SunChild. Dustin found older brother Darrell on a 32-yard pass play. The Stars final score off the first quarter came as Jesse Poolaw ran the ball in from 39-yards away. At the half Rocky Boy led 19-7.
The Stars scored only once in the third quarter as Meyers again found the end zone, this time on a 22-yard run from the line of scrimmage.
Rocky Boy lit up the scoreboard in the fourth quarter, as well, with three scores.
The first touchdown came from one yard out as Poolaw found the end zone. Bob Caplette ran the ball 38 yards for a touchdown and Darrell Sunchild scored from his defensive position as he ran back an intercepted pass 30 yards.
Rocky Boy head coach Rick Sunchild said they have been going back to basics and running the ball straight up the middle. Sunchild said his players have been doing some great blocking and running.
Weve been taking the ball and going right up the middle, occasionally on the outside and just letting our blocking and our backs do the rest, Sunchild said.
Two wins in two weeks is a huge confidence builder, Sunchild said. At the beginning of the season, Sunchild said, his players doubted their ability to put points of the board. Once they scored a few touchdowns, they knew they could do it.
They came out to play right from the first quarter. There is nothing fancy and we would be happy with four or five yards and march the ball down the field, Sunchild said.
Next up for the Stars is J-I and Sunchild said they have their work cut out.
Power blasted Big Sandy on Friday night 36-8.
The first score of the game came in the second quarter as Power scored and led 6-0 at the half. The Pirates added 16 more points to the board in the third quarter to lead 22-0. The Pioneers only touchdown came in the fourth quarter as Mace Mangold reeled in an 18-yard pass from Arron Meyers. Meyers also hooked up with Seth Davidson on the two-point conversion but that was all the offense the Pioneers could muster.
Box Elder and Hays-Lodgepole clashed this weekend, with the Bears spoiling the Thunderbirds homecoming by taking the close, but high scoring game, 56-54. Only the score was made available.
Box Elder assistant coach Chris Handley said the T-Birds scored late and tried a two-point conversion to tie the game, but the Box Elder defense held them short.
The win gives the Bears their first victory on the season while Hays-Lodgepole stays winless on the season.

This is the first maxi dress I've purchased; I generally avoid them because I'm a nonexistent 5 feet 2 inches tall. Whenever I try on maxi dresses in-store I run around in the fitting room with fabric everywhere. I'm so happy no one ever has to see that. I'm just really short.
Incredibly, this one only drags on the floor a little with flats. I know I should probably consider just getting it tailored (logical conclusion) but I don't feel like paying. Also I'm lazy. Also I've never done it before and I'm resistant to change. That last one isn't true at all. Also I'm a liar.

The BeginningPosted by Davina511 in goals , exercise smoking |
I bought a couple of Wii Fitness discs about a month ago. It's been sitting unopened until now. I wanted to start 2012 with an exercise routine. I stand 5'11 and weigh about 160 lbs and people think I'm naturally fit. I beg to differ and I know I should do more than what I'm doing now, which is NOTHING.
With me it's taking baby steps to accomplish a goal. First was to quit smoking. I have been smoke free since 9/7/11 and boy does that feel great. I can be around someone who smokes and it not bother me. What I can't stand is to kiss someone who smokes. My sense of smell and taste are slowly coming back. It's amazing that I can smell smoke on someone who smoked hours ago.

Las Vegas Herald
Las Vegas Herald | Source for Las Vegas, U.S. & Global NewsThe Las Vegas Herald is essentially a local Las Vegas newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Las Vegas, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.
The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.
We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.
Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.
We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Las Vegas, Nevada, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Las Vegas Herald.

If you are able to enter the country, i.e. if they let you in, then you will be able to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque. In principle, as a Muslim it is much easier to access the Temple Mount that as a non Muslim. You have more entry points at your disposal, and you can avoid the queues at the al-Magrhib bridge. Once you are inside you can of course pray. The contrary would be strange in a place like this. Allahu Akbar. |

Pay dirt: Why rare-earth metals matter to tech (FAQ)
A topic most people once considered as boring as dirt--rare earth minerals--has fast become a matter of international significance with a direct impact on green technologies and consumer electronics.
Rare earth metals are a group of elements that are used in a wide range of products we use every day, including hard drives and hybrid cars. Their properties, notably as light-weight magnets, make them key to the ongoing miniaturization of electronics and the growth of green technologies.
Rare earth minerals have become a hot-topic issue for industrialists and politicians for one simple reason: supply.

Beginning a new career, after retiring as vice president at BB&T in Harlan following 36 years of service, Janice Napier is now in the real estate business.
"I think a part of living is being active," said Napier. "I didn't want to just go home and do nothing, so I decided to go to real estate school, which I did and obtained my license. I'm a sales agent with Darlene Lemarr, owner of Lemarr Realty in Harlan."
Napier said the reason she chose to return to work in real estate is because she "likes to help people."
"I like being around people," said Napier. "That's why I liked my job at the bank so well because I got to meet a lot of different people. I got to help them with their financial lives, whether it was what kind of account they needed or putting them into a home they had waited all their life to have. It's very gratifying to me. I think any time you can help someone else, in-turn you are helping yourself."
Napier and her husband, Wallace, who retired as principal at Evarts High School after 34 years in education, also buy and sell antique collectibles. They call their business "Reed's Mountain Treasures."
"Anyone who has old furniture or other antique items may call us and we'll go out and take a look at it," said Napier. "We just do this on the side. It keeps my husband busy. We have a little booth at a Trader's Mall in Lexington."
Residing in Evarts, Napier said she and her husband love to travel. They are long-time members of the Evarts Congregation United Methodist Church. She is a part of Harlan County Leadership board of directors and the Pine Mountain Development Corporation. She serves as chair of the Evarts Tourist and Convention Commission.
She is a graduate of Southeast Kentucky Community and Technical College and the University of Kentucky. She has a master's degree in banking from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, La.
She said the people of Harlan County "need to work together now more than ever."
Napier added she loves Harlan County as a whole, the Clover Fork community and its people, especially her best friend Margaret Robbins.
"I hope this fall to get my auctioneer's license," said Napier. "Being involved in the realty business, this will help Darlene and I sell houses at auction. I hope by doing this I can enhance the business at Lemarr Realty."
Napier chose to end her interview with a quote from Ecclesiastes 3:1, "To every thing there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven."
She said becoming a realtor was her time to branch out and do something different.
Anyone interested in selling their home or purchasing a new home may contact Napier at 606-521-2255 or 837-3625 or email@example.com.
To reach Lemarr Realty, you may call 606-273-1766 or 573-6412.
