David Post: There will be no winner in airport de-annexation battle
"This has nothing to do with retribution and payback."
"We don't want a partnership."
"We want control."
A paraphrase: Our partners don't have honest intentions.
"They act behind our back."
"I don't see a lot of cooperation."
"All we need is for you to get out of our way."
"This is not related to other beefs we have." (So, there are more.)
These divisive comments by the county commissioners about de-annexing the airport will get them re-elected, but that will not encourage business growth. Their rhetoric could apply to the school office or to the Salisbury Planning Board's (full disclosure: I'm a member) suggestion that a county-wide partnership explore development of I-85. Or to water-sewer lines. Or to Fibrant. Or to the 911 call center. Maybe even dog catchers.
Do they believe this language will create jobs? Do they really care about jobs? If so, how can any existing businesses can feel secure or want to grow here? Why would any business want to relocate here? Businesses want stability. Certainty. No hassle. Government that works. Government that is a partner. Instead, not working together — more importantly, not wanting to work together — has become part of the county's DNA.
Over the past 50 years, North Carolina taught the South how a poor state could transform itself with a focus and financial commitment (yes, taxes) to education. Successful counties tapped into the technologies of the future. Rowan County missed that boat. Being conservative, Salisbury-Rowan clung to the past, moaning the loss of thousands of low-paying textile jobs that will never come back.
A hundred years ago, Salisbury was one of North Carolina's largest cities. When built in 1903, the Grubb-Wallace-Plaza building was the tallest in North Carolina. Rowan County is in the middle of the I-85 corridor that stretches 250 miles from Raleigh-Durham to Greenville, South Carolina. Yet, it is the only county in the region to lose population over the past several years. That's not because of taxes. It's because of the lack of both opportunity and leadership concerned with the whole rather than the parts.
Rowan commissioners believe that taxes, and only taxes, drive all business decisions. Our airport tax is already the lowest in the region. How will reducing it further attract more business?
Salisbury is critical to Rowan County. It provides a disproportionate share of the county's tax base and is the engine for virtually all of the county's economic growth. Yet, the county apparently wants nothing to do with the city. Most people in Rowan County have heard of Burlington, Cary, Wilmington, Asheville and Monroe, but how many can identify the county where those cities are located and name two other towns in those counties?
Salisbury-Rowan has several highly competent economic leaders in Robert Van Geons, James Meacham, and Randy Hemann, who head RowanWorks Economic Development Commission, the Tourism Development Authority and Downtown Salisbury, Inc. Have their voices been heard? Hardly. In fact, Mr. Hemann is often demonized for his efforts to reinvigorate Salisbury's core.
The local hostility is like a loud divorce where the judge separates the property but requires the parties to remain married. Maybe a divorce is the solution. De-annex Salisbury from the county. Salisbury could become the state's 101st county, a donut hole, somewhat like Lesoto, an independent nation surrounded on all borders by South Africa.
Tweny-five years ago, my family closed its business, Zimmerman's. Twelve years ago, I moved my company from Washington, D.C., to Salisbury, not because of taxes, but because my brother, Jon Post, and a friend, Joe Hager, were willing to take a chance with me. Regulatory tripwires made both more difficult than necessary (but that's another story).
Our company's success has put us on Inc. Magazine's list of the fastest growing companies in the United States for the past six years. As a result, a few dozen investors and banks have called. Since we operate in a number of states, they always ask, "Why Salisbury?" I say that we are a half-day drive to D.C. and Atlanta, that within a 50- and 100-mile radius around Salisbury is the largest population mass between Washington and Atlanta, and that the costs of living and doing business are low. They are usually impressed.
Instead, suppose I refer them to the comments at the beginning of this article and say, "What do you think?"
What would they think?

Green Valley Horse Camp sites are only available to campers who are camping with horses. Reservations will not be honored for campers who do not have horses.
There is only one trail linking the campground with the Park's riding trails. This route requires that horses transit the paved campground road for a distance of 250'. You should expect to encounter motor vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians, most of whom are not familiar with horses along this route.
The Green Valley Horse Camp is designed to primarily accommodate small to medium size tow vehicles and horse trailers.The road leading into the camp is narrow as are many of the sites. Some sites are pull-through; others require strong trailer backing skills. Check the dimensions of the sites before making your reservation.
Each site has two corrals, a picnic table, and fire ring. A limited number of extra corrals are available on a first-come basis. Only one horse or riding animal may be placed in a corral. Stallions and nursing mares are strongly discouraged. Campers are required to clean up all manure, straw, and shavings before checking out of the campground. Use the provided manure trailers; manure shall not be placed in dumpsters. Trailers and wheelbarrows are provided for manure disposal. Hose bibs are located throughout the campground. Campers need to provide their own hoses. Horses may not be tied to vegetation and park facilities.
Restrooms and pay showers are located in the center of the Green Valley Horse Camp loop. Fire wood is available for sale at the campground entrance and at the campground host site.
Most sites are too small to accommodate extra vehicles. Extra vehicles will need to be parked in the Falls Day Use Area, one-half mile from the horse camp. All vehicles need to be parked within the designated campsite. Parked vehicles may not obstruct the roadway.
Do not check-in before 2:00 p.m., as there is no place to park early arrivals. Camping fees include parking for one vehicle and one trailer.
Pets must be kept on a leash or in a vehicle at all times and are not allowed on trails; they may not be left unattended in the campground.

Engel 64 Qt. Tri Voltage Portable Fridge / Freezer Model:MT60F-U1-C
See Payment Options

Description & HighlightsBe the first to Write a Review
Engel 64 Qt. Tri Voltage Portable Fridge / Freezer
The Engel 64 Qt. Tri Voltage Portable Fridge / Freezer (MT60F-U1-C) features a large capacity as well as a rugged powder coated exterior steel casing. Best of all, these travel coolers are tri-voltage which means they can run off 110 VAC, 12V DC and 24V DC! This unit was designed to withstand the wear and tear of use in the deserts of Africa and the Australian Outback. This is a tri voltage unit that is designed to operate on both 12-24 volt or standard 110 volt circuits. Advanced motor design and insulation actually permit this unit to draw fewer amps than the smaller Engel units. Another notable feature is that the Engel MT60F-U1-C has two separate compartments - one freezer and one refrigerator. The fridge compartment is fixed at 40°F and the freezer compartment features variable temperature control ranging from from 40° down to below 0°F.
Unlike thermoelectric coolers, Engel portable freezers / refrigerators are designed to cool almost instantly and will even keep ice cream frozen. Also, the Engel 64 Qt. Tri Voltage Portable Fridge / Freezer MR040F-U1 can hold a steady interior temperature preventing foods and perishables from spoiling and features a deep interior with removable ice tray supports.
This portable fridge/freezer is great for boaters and campers to keep food/beverages or even your daily catch cold, as well as being useful for a variety of professional purposes. Sales reps on the road can use the Engel fridge/freezer to protect frozen or cold samples, EMS/paramedic or other medical personnel can keep life saving drugs, vaccines or any other samples protected. This product is also great for personal medication that must be refrigerated.

It's easy to see why Polk Audio's décor-friendly CSW100 won the prestigious 2006 Innovations Design and Engineering Award from the Consumer Electronics Association. This subwoofer's clever construction allows for out-of-sight placement in your floor, ceiling, or even a piece of furniture. After it's installed, all you'll see is the included 4" x 14" grille, which looks like an ordinary air vent. Performance is excellent, too. You get clear, potent bass with movies and music. Feel the deep rumble of the engines in an on-screen car chase, and enjoy richer, fuller sound from your favorite songs. Polk's optional SWA500 amplifier powers the CSW100. Got wire?

The SWA500 comes with a SPEX Card that configures the EQ, crossover, and power control circuitry to match the CSW100 subwoofer. Woofer: The CSW100 features a long-throw 10" fiber cone woofer with a rubber surround. Enclosure Construction: The CSW100 has rigidly braced MDF enclosure construction for low resonance and rattle-free performance. Slot Vent: The enclosure features an integrated slot vent for deep, driving bass. Grille: The CSW100 is designed to fire through an opening in the floor or ceiling. Once the installation is complete, the opening can be covered with an optional grille. The CSW100 comes with a 4.5" x 14 " grille that looks like an air vent. Spring Posts: The CSW100 subwoofer has one set of spring post terminals that will accept pin connectors and bare wire. Mounting Options Mounting Location: The CSW100 is designed to be mounted between floor or ceiling joists. The CSW100 can fit between the tighter joist-spacing of QuietFloor or wooden I-Beam construction. The subwoofer requires a joist spacing of at least 13" and a depth of 9". The overall length of the subwoofer is 26.25". Mounting Brackets: The supplied brackets and wood screws allow you to mount the CSW100 to any parallel floor or ceiling joists. Isolation Pads: When the enclosure is installed, it fits snugly against one of the floor or ceiling joists. To prevent rattling, two of the isolation pads should be installed between the enclosure and the joist, while the other three isolation pads should be placed on the front panel of the enclosure.

I'm a big Polk fan. In fact most of my upcoming house build will feature Polk products (in-wall, in-ceiling speakers, and in-floor and in-wall subs). I am installing 4 for these in-floor subs in my great room powered by 2 Polk SWA500's (designed to match up w/these subs). While I haven't installed these subs yet (house is still under construction), I have listened to them simply outside of the shipping box and they perform great (in my current home). I have demoed them on both music and movies and there output is very nice. Stats say they play down to around 30hz and to my untrained ear that seems accurate. If you need an in-wall or in-floor sub that plays lower I would suggest looking at other alternatives. Most movies and music will sound great on them though. I have another manufacturer that I will be using for my dedicated home theater room (6 15's!!!). The fact that you can hide the sub under the flooring and all you see is a small grille, these subs are hard to beat. Pros: performance, out of sight sub Cons: under 30 hz material, pricey when you consider the cost of the sub and amp compared to a "normal" sub, but then again it would take up floor space.

Euharlee Police Chief Terry Harget said, "Two officers were serving an arrest warrant for another member of the family at the address. It has been determined that the teen was holding what appeared to be a weapon. The officer who fired the shot has been with our department for more than a year but has 10 years of law enforcement training and experience. At this time that is all I can release because the incident is currently under investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. As soon as the investigation is complete we will release the findings.
"Our hearts go out to the family and the officer. This has been traumatic."
According to a source close to the investigation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, the police arrived at the residence about 7:35 p.m. in reference to a probation violation warrant for the teen's father. However, the source said, the teen opened the door with possibly a BB gun in his hand.
The officer allegedly fired at the teen and hit his shoulder. The source said he bled to death before emergency response crews arrived.
His father and two siblings were in the home at the time of the shooting.
Another source, who also spoke on the condition of anonymity, said, "I could see where he fell after being shot. He fell against a gaming table, and there was an ungodly amount of blood on a Wii controller and the gaming system laying nearby."
Ken Yates, manager of the Eagle View Mobile Home Park where Roupe lived, said, "He was a great kid, always polite, courteous and asked if there was anything I needed help with. I loved the kid."
Yates believed the teen, a senior at Woodland High School, would have turned 18 today and planned to join the Marine Corps after graduation.
Caron Yates, the second manager of the Eagle View Mobile Home Park, said, "[His] father did not work so [he] supported the family with odd jobs around the neighborhood. During the snowstorm, he shoveled snow for people and cut grass in the summer. He tried to keep his younger brother and sister in order. He was the adult of the household. He was a very friendly, down-to-earth teenager."
Caron Yates also commented on the officer involved in the shooting.
"We have dealt with the officer several times with situations in the neighborhood. She has always been personable and nice. She was the kind of officer who tried to make peace in a situation, not just take people to jail. This is such a tragic situation for everyone involved," Yates said.
One source said the father was arrested and taken to jail on the warrants at the time of the incident and the two children were released to a neighbor. However, the children's mother, who lives outside Bartow County, picked the children up at 2 a.m. Saturday.
The officer has been placed on administrative leave, Euharlee City Manager Trish Sullivan said.

Tiny, tiny shirt. Order a size big.
By Kelsey
from Lansing, MI
About Me Career, Casual, Eclectic
Really bummed about how TINY this item is. I ordered a Large, I usually wear a S/M in a unisex tshirt, generally size 10 in women's clothing, and it was a tight squeeze into this shirt. I would love to exchange it for another size, but I'd have to pay to ship it there, and pay for return shipping! I may as well just buy a second one for that price. Cute shirt, seems quality and well made, but I'll have to lose 20 lbs before I can wear it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Professing My Love in a Trendy Way
By Tammy III To-be
from Missouri
About Me Bargain Shopper, Casual, Trendy
Pretty snug. I generally order a size up for fitted t-shirts so after a few washings they fit perfect. This one is a bit tighter than other fitted shirts so you might want to go up another size than you normally order. I imagined the print to be smaller, but it was bigger than I expected which I am very pleased about. A must have for any Ron Swanson fan.
Great shirt!
By Who doesn't love Ron?
from Minneapolis
Funny shirt! And doubly funny if your name is Ron and you can get your wife to wear it! The shirt is tapered nicely, and very flattering. Survived a wash without running or disfiguring, too.
Fit is way off...
By 2newones
from Cedar Rapids, IA
Loved the shirt overall, but the fit is WAY off. I am petite and normally wear a small, but I read the disclaimer about it running smaller than normal, so I ordered a medium thinking it would be fine. It was still very very tight. If you wear a small, order a large, if you are a large, stay away from this shirt.

Andre Moritz has left Crystal Palace after he could not be guaranteed regular first-team football by manager Ian Holloway.
Arsene Wenger left the North East with maximum points on Saturday but Arsenal had to rely on two defensive mistakes and an in-form Alexis Sanchez while the victory came at a cost.
Harry Redknapp has a number of injury concerns ahead of Monday nights' crucial Premier League game against Aston Villa at Loftus Road with up to six midfield players at risk of missing out.
Diafra Sakho made it 6 goals from 6 starts helping the Hammers to secure yet another three points as they topple the current Premier League champions.
Wilfried Bony scored a brace to help Swansea to a much needed 2-0 win over Leicester City.
Jose Fonte helped Southampton to another clean sheet today in their home match against Stoke City.
Stoke City's attack struggled on the road as they only had one shot on target against Southampton.
Alexis Sanchez capitalized on two horrible Sunderland mistakes for the only goals of a match where Arsenal will be flattered by the 2-0 scoreline.
Sunderland mistakes effectively threw away a good home point against an Arsenal team that looked completely out of sorts as the Black Cats lost 2-0 to the Gunners.
Liverpool dropped points at home to Hull City, settling for a 0-0 draw in which Mario Balotelli once again could not grab his first PL goal in a Reds shirt.
Sadio Mane scored to give Southampton a 1-0 win over Stoke City and take his team to second place in the standings.
Hull City were under a steady bombardment by the Liverpool attack but refused to concede, earning a cheeky road point at Anfield in a 0-0 final.

If the life settlements market seems ghoulish, here's a British scandal which isn't doing the image of the business any favours. It's one of the worst the country's seen.
Around 30,000 mainly elderly investors in the UK put their money into a company called Keydata, hoping to make a little extra cash to fund their own retirement with the promise of a healthy return.
What they were buying sounded kosher, even if it did depend on how fast their wealthy American counterparts were dying. Of course, the investors may not have known that.
As is so often the case with these things, the projections were a little optimistic. And then some other irregularities blew up. Around 100 million pounds went missing, one of the business's partners dropped dead in Singapore and the investment company was shut down by the regulators, leaving British pensioners like Tony and Pam Tobin out of pocket. The Serious Fraud Office is investigating.
Undeterred, the other key character behind Keydata is determined to fight the regulators' decision. "I am someone who can make the impossible possible," he tells us.

Discover how our tap changers last for decades without failing and are writing their own special history in the process – a history of legendary quality and absolute reliability.
The sun shines brightly this morning above the transformer substation in Uirapuru near São Paulo. Technicians Edvaldo Macedo and Marcelo Dantas work under the scorching Brazilian sun despite the heat. The tap changer from MR has had to endure the same heat for more than 50 years. Even more astounding is their finding: exactly 168,871 switching operations since 1960 but hardly any signs of wear. Then the routine work – the replacement of the main contact blades and cushioning springs. Nothing else is needed to return the spry hero to his usual litheness. Macedo gives the thumbs-up. A gesture that the founders of MR would have liked to see. After all, they were the ones who shaped our standard for reliability more than 100 years ago.
Nothing works without power. But just about everything works with it. The safe and reliable availability of electrical energy is a basic requirement for modern industrialized society. Our field service technicians contribute to ensuring that the supply of power for people and companies works without a hitch. They carry out maintenance and repair work for tap changers at utility providers and industrial customers throughout the world using their expertise as trained electricians, electrical engineers and mechatronics engineers. A challenging job that demands a high degree of personal responsibility and technical expertise. The spectrum of tasks includes producing spare modules and installing complete tap changer units. Routine maintenance alone would not give MR technicians enough to do in light of the extremely long maintenance intervals for our tap changers.
Are you interested in playing a similar role at MR?
Then explore our job opportunities and career fields.
The Type D with motor-drive unit MA 2 was the quality pioneer of our products – a promise we continue to affirm again and again. For instance, with our new VACUTAP® tap changers. They are continuing our success story with a design that goes 300,000 switching operations without maintenance.
Find out how MR technology is tested to ensure our standards for reliability in any situation.
The thermometer in the temperature chamber is showing -60° C. The insulating oil is as viscous as honey. At these temperatures, a person would be unable to move within a very short space of time. Despite this, the on-load tap-changer completes one step operation after the next as precisely as Swiss clockwork. The door to the cold chamber opens, and a frosty mist rises up the twelve-meter-high roof of the test center, which is unique worldwide. Clothed in thickly padded protective suits, two assembly operators push the tap-changer out of the simulated Siberia. But that's not the end of the ordeal. After a heat test at 130° C, it will be struck by an artificial bolt of lightning with 1.5 million volts. But it copes with that as well, before proving its mechanical prowess in the time lapse test. Later, it will need to operate for at least another 50 years or more without failure. A requirement that our technology meets with at all times.
Watch film.
Karin Rothenstein sends tap-changers to Siberia and to the desert. However, she places high demands on herself as well as on our products. She configures test and measuring equipment, and evaluates data precisely. She supports our tap-changers from the sample stage through to the start of production. She has scrutinized almost every MR product in this manner. A dedication that pays off at MR – in future, she will be working as a speaker for General Management.

Find out how MR products and staff are working ten kilometers off the Swedish coast to ensure the power supply for tens of thousands of people under adverse conditions.
The taste of salt is in the air. The way out to the transformer platform of the Lillgrund wind farm is not for those with a weak stomach. The boat rolls wildly back and forth. Only persons who have successfully completed a short survival training course are allowed to go on site with the service troop. No time may be lost. The wind is blowing incredibly fast before the Danish coast. On bad days, it casts waves up to 20 meters high against the station. This is where Europe's future energy supply is being developed. After just a short time, the tap-changer monitoring device TAPGUARD ® 260 has been installed. It's reassuring to know that it will contribute to ensuring the power supply of 66,000 households.
Anyone who works in the world of power engineering loves a challenge. Our engineers in the Technical Service and Troubleshooting departments are used to solving complex technical tasks and growing with their experiences. After all, they have been through numerous trainings and a degree in engineering. Advice and support, technical negotiation with complex incidents and the functional management of staff can thus quickly become features of an exciting daily routine.

Find out how MR makes the local generation of clean energy possible today using innovative technologies.
The houses glow in a deep, surreal red light. Shortly after, their rooftops start to glisten and sparkle. A sunrise that seems to come from the future. As the solar cells deploy their full power, the RONT really gets going. MR's adjustable local network transformer (RONT) can manage all the voltage fluctuations perfectly, without additional cables having to be laid. Good news for the residents. And good for the environment, because it's not just the Wörnitz that flows through Larrieden, but also any amount of clean energy.
Anyone working in an innovative company with global expertise in voltage regulation will be aware of and advancing new developments before anyone else. As a Business Development Manager, Dr. Manuel Sojer and his team have a key role to play in driving the energy revolution. His job ranges from analyses of the market and competitors to marketing product innovations. Using the technology of voltage regulated distribution transformers, he helps to make it much easier for distribution networks to accommodate renewable energy. His doctorate in technology and innovation management is very useful in this respect.
Find more to Dr. Manuel Sojer here.
A local network station that ensures the economic integration of renewable energies – that's GRIDCON® by MR. In its interior, the adjustable local network transformer RONT ensures stable voltage at all times. And as usual with MR, one innovation leads to another. The project in Larrieden was thus the forerunner of a new product line: GRIDCON®, an important building block for the energy turnaround.

The glowing hot metal starts to cool off as a cellphone rings at one in the morning at Reinhausen, 7,000 kilometers away. The report of a failure comes as a surprise.
Every minute counts from here on out. Especially when a steel mill is sitting idle on the other side of the globe. Our service team moves heaven and earth. A short time later, our specialist is already sitting on a plane. His destination: Canada. There is no time for jet lag once he's there. The problem is resolved quickly. When the next shift starts, it is as if there had never been a failure. Our customer's thanks is the only reminder of what transpired.
Anyone working for a company with global expertise in voltage regulation is going to be on the move quite a bit. And even at his home location in Regensburg, Uwe Seltsam has a large area of operation: field work, customer meetings, technology meetings. As a group manager in troubleshooting, his daily work takes him from the office to technical departments and from putting on a suit to pulling on some overalls and back again. All with the goal of solving problems. Ideally, before they even happen. A degree in electrical engineering and many years at MR give him the knowledge and skills to accomplish this.
