CORNING — Lara Marie West and Chase Deane Crill, both of Carl, were married June 22 at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Corning.
The bride is the daughter of Kathryn West of Prescott and Tim West of Winterset. The groom is the son of Jeff and Martha Crill of Corning.
The Rev. Lazarus Kirigia officiated the 3 p.m. ceremony. Music was provided by pianist Marilea Mullen of Corning and vocalist Lincoln Decklever of Des Moines, cousin of the groom. Readers were Tim and Kathy Ennis of Corning, the couple's sponsors from St. Patrick's Catholic Church.
The bride was escorted down the aisle and given away by her brother Taylor West. She wore a floor-length, sleeveless, off-white gown made of tulle and floral lace with a sheer bateau neckline. The floral lace was accented with beads that reached the train of the dress with a mermaid skirt. The bride wore a veil made of tulle with a thin satin cord detail. She carried a bouquet of light yellow hydrangeas accented by handmade pendants of her late brother Dane West and grandfather John T. Moore.
Maid of honor was Cassidy Stroud of Waterloo. Bridesmaids were Trina Day of Camden Point, Mo., and Sydney Wasteney of Waukee, both cousins of the bride, Katie Hogan of Osceola and Amanda Jaramillo Ayon of Waukee.
Bridesmaids wore floor-length sleeveless yellow lux chiffon gowns with blouson bodice and cowl necklines accented with chunky ivory pearl necklaces. The bouquets consisted of cream hydrangeas with burlap detail.
Best man was Clay Mercer of Brooks. Groomsmen were Brandyn Crill and Clint Crill, brothers of the groom, Taylor West, brother of the bride, all of Prescott, and James Houck of Corning.
Ushers were Brant McCuen of Corning, Tyler Dykstra of Paullina, Nick Meyer of Des Moines and Derek Wilkerson of Adel.
Groomsmen and ushers wore gray vests with ivory shirts, yellow ties matching the bridesmaids and gray pants.
Flower girl was Raegan Kinsella of Creston, and ring bearer was Jensen Waigand of Afton, both cousins of the bride.
Candle lighters were Hunter Crill of Prescott, nephew of the groom, and Jackson Kinsella, cousin of the bride.
Guest book attendants were Ansley Waigand of Afton and Mason Kinsella of Creston, both cousins of the bride.
Immediately after the wedding, there was a reception held at Supertel in Creston. Tables were accented with centerpieces of mason jars filled with sliced lemons and cream hydrangeas. The ceiling was also decorated.
A rehearsal dinner was hosted by the parents of the groom the night before the wedding at Happy Hallow Country Club in Corning.
Reception hosts were Jerry and DeeAnne Warren of Clive, aunt and uncle of the groom, and Mike and Janette Day of Camden Point, Mo., aunt and uncle of the bride.
Cake servers were Kathy Morgan of Corning and Nona Firch of Bridgewater.
There was a candle lighted at the altar in memory of the bride's brother Dane West and grandfather John T. Moore, and the groom's grandmother Ruby Crill and great-grandmother Merle Crill.
The bride graduated from Grand View University with a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing. She is currently employed at Alegent Creighton Health Mercy Hospital in Corning as a registered nurse.
The groom graduated from Iowa State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural studies and a minor in agronomy. He is currently employed with Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, Division of Soil Conservation in Corning as a state technician in Adams County.
After the wedding, the couple left for a honeymoon in Montezuma, Costa Rica. They stayed in a bungalow along the Pacific Coast and rainforest. The couple reside in Carl.

Current Fellows at the FDI
Pre-doctoral Fellow 2014-2015
Adela Amaral received her B.A. in anthropology and history from UCLA and her M.A. in anthropology from the University of Chicago. Her interests include Historical anthropology and archaeology, the Afro-Atlantic world, maroonage, colonialism, architecture, ruins, and spatial practice. Her dissertation, "The Archaeology of a Maroon Reducción: Colonial Beginnings to Present day Ruination" combines archaeological, historical and ethnographic work to develop a thorough and long term understanding of African slavery and runaway slavery in Colonial Veracruz, Mexico. Her work centers on the reducción, Nuestra Señora de los Negros de Amapa, founded in 1769 by runaway slaves of African descent or, maroons. Adela's dissertation examines the political impulses that led to the founding of Amapa and its short and long term ramifications. The project investigates the local creation of the maroon colonial social category and questions the connections between racialized social groups, built environments, and things. Her work also uses the political present as local knowledge and present day relationships are used to interpret the past and to understand how the past is used in the present.

Post-doctoral Fellow 2014-2015
Erin Pearson received her Ph.D. in English from the University of California, Irvine, and a B.A. in English from Harvard College. Her research examines the discourse on slavery to reveal the ways race and power were perceived, constructed, and challenged not only by slaves and slaveholders, but by politicians, abolitionists, and consumers.
Her current book project, Savage Hunger: Cannibalism and the Discourse on Slavery in the United States and Caribbean, argues that cannibalism was a defining feature of the discourse on slavery. From the proslavery advocates who used allegations of African cannibalism to justify enslavement, to the antislavery activists who used cannibalism as a metaphor for human exploitation, cannibalism afforded Anglophone writers in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries a powerful conceptual tool for making sense of slavery. Her approach combines the examination of rare archival materials like political cartoons and blackface minstrel songsters with extended close readings of major works by writers including Olaudah Equiano, Frederick Douglass, and Herman Melville.

1) Driver
2) 3 Fairway Wood
3) 5 Fairway Wood
4) Irons (Just the swing weight)
5) Wedges (Just the swing weight)
6) Putter (Just the swing weight)
Yes, I know different for different people but I just wanted to find out the average.
The analogy about light and heavy objects swung at the same speed will generate the same force is totally incorrect. eg. If you swing a feather at 100 mph and try to hit a golf ball it goes no where.
If you swing a 1 pound weight 100 mph then you will have muchhhhh more force.
Also feeling the club head by making it heavier allows the body weight to be in sync with the club movement.
The distance a golfer hits the golf ball is based on his synchronization of the body weight and club head at impact.
If you hit with your hands only and no weight transfer, the ball will go rather short distance.If you get the right timing of body weight and the club head the ball will travel forever.
That is why some relative small people hit the ball a long way while some big people cannot get a lot of distance.
OK so I'm going to step in to the fray here a lil bit. Lets start by getting a common understanding of some of what we're talking about. The OP was talking about swing weight and swing weight is measure of tourque NOT at the club head nor at the Center of mass of the club but at an arbirtary weight determined by some guy. Swingweight is the force required to over come the inertia of the COM of the entire club. if you increase the swing weight. you are moving the center of Mas of the entire club closer to the club head. I think everyone would agree.
Since golf and tennis is a sport where power delivered through kinetic sequencing. A club that is too light, will force a slower swing speed because you couldn't make contact, a club that is too heavy would slow swing speed because you couldn't make contact. When you increase the swing weight you increase the mass of the head of the hammer and provided that you can keep the club moving at same speed the ball will go FURTHER because it has more momentum and move velocity. So if you can control a heavier club and hold all things equal you're gonna increase your distance.
I recently moved my irons to D8 and I ca swing with more control and the same head speed and picked up 15 yards.
The analogy about light and heavy objects swung at the same speed will generate the same force is totally incorrect. eg. If you swing a feather at 100 mph and try to hit a golf ball it goes no where. If you swing a 1 pound weight 100 mph then you will have muchhhhh more force.
100 pounds of cotton swung at 100 MPH isn't going to send the ball as far as 1 pound of steel swung at 100 MPH either.
There are a lot of factors to consider when you want to think about the weight of a club.
Obviously, the heavier a club the slower (with the same effort) you'll swing it. Solidity (of conrtact) matters too.
weight x speed = power on tennis rq. if you want power use less string tension that equals more stored energy more control use more tension , lighter weight. on a club or racket helps those out that cannot control ( because of skill or strength ) the swing , higher weight. in the same size transfers more stored energy - imho
I don't agree with "Basically if you buy two identical wooden handled hammers, drill out the handle of one. The weight of the hammer will be lower, but head weight will be constant. If you swing the hammers so that the speeds of the heads are identical, the nail will recieve the same amount of force and energy. There would be no difference."
I don't have a degree or anything like that...but common sense tells you if you have an object (head of a club) weight 197Gm traveling at 106Mph and if you add 20gm (217Gm) traveling at the same speed it will give more distance...the head is about 10% heavier so if 106Mph give you 280Yds there for 10% more weight may give you up to 20Yds extra distance...
on the same theory you don't use a 1# to dig the ball out of 12" of thick rough (head weight & shaft length = more club head speed) but a shorter shaft with a heavy head (SW) or (PW) will get you out (Ok more loft) what I am getting at if you put a SW head on the end of your driver shaft...you would not swing it at 90mph as the weight will slow you down and to get it back to the ball square you would have to have a shaft made from rebar...
IMO. Everybody has a different point of diminishing returns on power from the weight of the object they are swinging. The three main varying factors I see in determining that point are strength, speed, and mechanics.
I played softball with 2 really good homerun hitters. One was not particularly fast but was very, very strong. He used a 37 ounce bat and could still generate plenty of bat speed to hit home runs. The other wasn't particularly strong but was extremely fast. He used a 28 ounce bat and generated tremendous bat speed to hit home runs.
Neither of them could hit home runs very well at all using the other's bat. The strong guy simply wasn't fast enough to hit with the 28 ounce bat and the fast one simply wasn't strong enough to generate any speed with the 37 ounce bat.
Also the strong guy had a longer swing and the faster guy had a shorter and much more compact swing.
P.S. I had a boss at the coal mine that was the strongest working man I ever knew. He was constantly taking any sledge hammer that didn't weigh 20 lbs. or had the handle shortened, out of the welding trucks because he thought we could drive pins better with the heavier and longer hammers.
The problem was that few people could swing a 20 lb. hammer and could do much better and hit much harder with a 16 lb. hammer with the handle sawed off a few inches. He thought because he could swing the damned things that everybody else should be able to as well.

Get Crafty: DIY Home Decor
Spring has at long last sprung and that means spiffing up the homestead. But this year, why not indulge that do-it-yourself urge and make your own décor? In addition to saving money, you'll also be setting free your inner artist.
Even if you've never so much as picked up a hammer or threaded a needle, there are special places out there that are itching to mold you into the next David Bromstad or Nate Berkus and help you build your own furniture, sew your own quilt and make all manner of awesome art you'll be proud to place on your walls.
EDGE discovers five DIY destinations for playing with your inner child with results that are age-appropriate, though the taste level may be in the eyes of the creator.
Rebuilding Exchange, Chicago
At Chicago's innovative Rebuilding Exchange, not only can you make your own home décor, you can also help the planet by doing it with reclaimed materials. Beginner workshops offered include the four-week Woodworking 101, which teaches students shop class fundamentals as they fashion their own tabletop using salvaged lumber from the Rebuilding Exchange's warehouse.
For more advanced craftsmen, says instructor Sergio Castro, "We have classes in which you can build anything you can dream. You pay per class until it's done. My favorite was three tennis court lamps that were repurposed into a chandelier to hang in a beautiful loft. Also, we have the 'Make It Take It' classes that are typically three to four hours and you can take home very useful things such as benches, framed mirrors and crates, all made from reclaimed wood."
Painting Lounge, New York City
Want to create your own masterpiece to hang on the wall of your home but worried you don't have a Picasso-esque bone in your body? Check out New York's Painting Lounge. During each two, two-and-a-half or three hour class, an instructor leads students step-by-step through recreating the evening's featured painting.
While the artwork replicated is often by a heavy-hitter like Monet, Van Gogh or Warhol, the atmosphere of the class is laid-back and fun. Not surprising, since the Painting Lounge's Manhattan studio is now sporting a liquor license so students can BYOB. (The Brooklyn location doesn't yet have its liquor license.) All art supplies are included in the price of the class, including the canvas on which you'll paint your pièce de résistance.
Creative Art Center of Dallas
No matter what the objet d'art you envision producing for your home, chances are you can get help making it a reality at the Creative Art Center of Dallas. CAC annually serves up more than 500 eight-week classes and one-day workshops for 1,500 students of all skill levels, covering such disciplines as drawing, photography, mixed media, fiber arts, mosaic, sculpture and even stone carving.
According to the Center's Executive Director Diana Pollack, "A lot of people come here to work on fused glass, metal art and ceramics. It's definitely a big trend!" CAC's home, situated on a two-acre site in a former grade school erected by the WPA during the Great Depression, is pretty nifty, too.

Huntingtown 34, Northern 27 (OT)
Quarterback Robbie Payne's one-yard touchdown run on the second play of overtime gave the host Hurricanes the win over the Patriots in Saturday night's nonconference contest.

Payne completed a pass to Dajuan Gray for nine yards on the first play of overtime, then scored from a yard out to put Huntingtown (1-0 overall) up 34-27.
On Northern's possession in overtime, Payne intercepted Wagner's pass intended for Adam Swann to end the game.
Wagner was 14 of 26 passing for 194 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. He also rushed 10 times for 72 yards and a touchdown.
Swann had 10 catches for 136 yards and a score.
Payne was 12 of 24 passing for 161 yards and three touchdowns, two going to Tim Pawlowski, who had two catches, both touchdowns, for 74 yards.
Northern (0-1) outgained Huntingtown 350-212 in the loss.
Westlake 20, Bowie 13
Senior John Bell's 42-yard punt return with two seconds left in regulation gave the Wolverines the victory on Saturday night over the visitors from Prince George's County.
Bell began the game by taking the opening kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown.
Westlake (1-0) led 13-6 at halftime, only to see Bowie tie it early in the fourth quarter.
The contest was marred by a bench-clearing fight which saw two players from each team get ejected.
Leonardtown 27, McDonough 18
In a battle of first-year head coaches, it was Raiders head coach James Klenk who earned the victory over Ryan Gick and the Rams on Saturday night in a nonconference contest.
On his home field, Leonardtown senior kicker Doug Baumann knocked home a 43-yard field goal with 59 seconds left in regulation to give the Raiders (1-0) a 21-18 lead.
"Just don't think about it," Baumann said on his mindset before the kick.
Raiders junior Tyrell Freeman (2 interceptions) returned an interception back 70 yards for a touchdown on the final play of the game as time expired.
McDonough's Josh Teachey had two touchdowns in the loss.
His first came on a 65-yard interception return for a touchdown late in the second half and his second a 16-yard touchdown catch that tied the game at 18 with just over six minutes remaining in the contest.
The Rams are 0-1.
Thomas Stone 28, Chopticon 14
The Cougars (1-0) stormed out to a 20-0 lead early and went on to take the home nonconference victory over the Braves on Saturday night.
Chad Walker put the hosts on the board with a 26-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter. Then Juwuan Briscoe scored the first of two rushing scores on the night, a 78-yard run to make it 14-0 after Stone converted the two-point conversion.
Cougars quarterback Kierson Morsell's 49-yard run for a score put the Cougars up 20-0 with 8:15 remaining until halftime. Chopticon got on the board next on a 15-yard touchdown run from Braxton Powell.
Briscoe's second touchdown of the night came in the third quarter, a 33-yard scamper, made it 28-7 after the Cougars converted another two-point conversion.
The Braves (0-1) cut the deficit in half when quarterback Jordan Donovyn connected with Shamon Love on a 16-yard touchdown pass with 1 minute 14 seconds left in the third.
Chopticon's chances to come back in the fourth were halted by three holding penalties, including a 23-yard touchdown catch by Alex Sanders that was called back on the third holding penalty.
Calvert 20, Great Mills 0
The Cavaliers (1-0) scored its first win of the season with Saturday night's home nonconference win over the Hornets (0-1). Stats and highlights from this contest were not available at time of publication.
Patuxent 41, North Point 20
The Panthers (1-0) led pretty much the entire way in Saturday night's nonconference win versus the Eagles (0-1).
North Point's Marquel Dickerson scored on an 80-yard touchdown run to tie the game at 7, but Patuxent went ahead on a safety when Mike Henry took down Eagles quarterback Brandon Battle in the end zone with 1:24 left in the first quarter and never trailed again.
Dickerson had 22 rushes for 247 yards and three touchdowns in the contest, with all three scores of 40 yards or more.
Patuxent quarterback Tyler Crounse completed just two passes out of 11 attempts, but both were for touchdowns. The first was a 37-yard strike to Greg Leonard on the third play of the second quarter to make it 16-7, the second a 13-yard pass to Henry midway through the second quarter, extending the Panthers lead to 23-7. Crounse also ran 23 times for 198 yards.
Dickerson's 68-yard touchdown scamper made it 23-13 and North Point was driving late in the second quarter, but an illegal shift with no timeouts ended a 12-play, 57-yard drive at the Patuxent 3-yard line.
Dickerson's third score was from 40 yards out in the third quarter.
Lackey 47, La Plata 0
Lackey (1-0) scored 40 of its 47 points in the second quarter en route to the nonconference victory over the host Warriors (0-1) on Saturday night.
The game was scoreless into the second period when Lacey McMillan-Kenney put the Chargers on the board 6-0 after the extra point failed.
Lackey had back-to-back touchdowns off interceptions coming 23 seconds apart. The first coming from Deontez Fleet from 30 yards and Cortrelle Simpson grabbed the second for a 24-yard return.
Simpson had a 59-yard punt return for a score next, then Corterris Simpson's 40-yard touchdown run capped the scoring in the quarter and put the Chargers up 40-0 at halftime. The visitors capped the scoring with a score in the fourth quarter.

These shallow subwoofers from Pioneer Electronics require have a mere 3" to 3-1/4" mounting depth and are designed to perform with as little as 0.5cu. ft. of air space. Many would assume that these car audio/stereo subwoofers don't perform as well as a standard subwoofer simply because of the size, but if you're willing to give them a try; you're in for a big surprise.
The TS-SW2501S4 (10 inch) and TS-SW3001S4 (12 inch) subwoofer feature Pioneer's patented Air Suspension Control System which provides extremely precise bass response. In addition the cones feel extremely sturdy due to the basalt/carbon fiber reinforced IMPP used in it's construction.

I started out in much the same way 5 or so years ago but had a worked as a pipefitter welder / vessel fabricator for food and pharma (pure water mainly) so had a very good understanding of stainless and the type of applications it's used in. I'ts nothing you can't lean with time and experience though so don't be put off!
When I went out on my own I bought a Dyn 200 and went knocking on doors of local sheetmetal shops - you'll be suprised at how many are always looking for welders for a few days to cover holidays/illness of just that their so far behind with their workload they need gettin outa the c**p!
They also get asked to do sitework and dont have the facilities to do it themselves so you might get some referals that way.
Like previous posts say, look professional - that goes for your kit as well, make sure your trucks clean ( cables wrapped up etc) everything you own / do/ say is a reflection of you - including the quality of your work.
above all make a point of leaving the jobsite cleaner than when you got there. You'll be remembered for it!!!

Thanks Russ.
General question:
Should I have a portable table and stool to take with me on jobs?
I was thinking a small fold up aluminum workstation and small stool would be ideal for restaurant and medical work. It wouldn't work for everything of course, but might prevent waiting 20 minutes while someone clears out a spot for me to work, for example.
Also, any examples of such tables on the web?
PS: I think I'll go for it w/in the month. I'll post pics if and when I do.
jamscal, I have done a ton of work in restaurants over the years and the first thing to do is get the item to be repaired or modified out of the building if at all possible. Bring with you a set of folding stands and some sort of a table top to work off of. The restaurant work should generally be done late at night or early in the morning when customers and staff are not present. When I do have to work inside I bring a b*ttload of tarps and drop cloths with me to cover anything and everything in the immediate vacinity of the work area. Cover everything especially if and cutting or grinding is taking place. The next best tip I can give you is work neat, you are generally going to be working in a small confined area and space is at a premium, tripping over cords and equipment is a real hassle and not very professional looking. Another must have if staff is present is welding curtains, non experienced people will naturally look at the light (can you say flashburn) and you leave yourself open for their medical liabilities
DO NOT under any circumstance work on any kind of medical equipment on site. They must keep as sterile of an environment as possible, anything you do will jeopardize that environment and the place will have to be decontaminated (possibly at your expense). Hope these tips help and good luck on starting up a new venture. DaveIf necessity is the Mother of Invention, I must be the Father of Desperation!

thats some sound advice right there.
i have never done mobil welding but did a fair share of remodeling, and the less mess you make the better. rebuilding improperly built fire places can make a huge mess. i got several referals just due to the fact i took the time ti inshore all my cement doard cutting was done outside and i left the place just as clean or cleaner when i left.
some will expect you to work spotless ly otheres will expect you to leave a mess. if its spotless when you veave every one is happy and the word will get around. just because they say i can clean that up dosent mean its a good idea to let them.thanks for the help
hope i helped
feel free to shoot me an e-mail direct i have time to chat. email@example.com
summer is here, plant a tree. if you don't have space or time to plant one sponsor some one else to plant one for you. a tree is an investment in our planet, help it out.
We use Ridgid Collapsable workbenches with a demountable vice.
I would never dream of taking a stool anywhere with me! - to the uneducated it looks like your just being lazy!!!
You're gonna have to learn to weld without a footpedal, either with the slope function on your dx or you can use a thumbwheel.
Theres a good chance that most of your work will be in position, under worktops in cupboard off steps etc so pedals become useless.
A small headscreen or hood is another good investment as you'll have to get your head into some tight spots and learn to weld looking into a mirror - Ive lost count of the number of butts i've done against a wall that other people have walked away from. It takes some getting used to but its well worth the effort.

I guess a stool would depend on the situation. I don't think anything implies laziness if you're getting the job done efficiently...and I don't want to keep up appearances for the 'uneducated.' I know you have to deal with them sometimes.
Not that the first thing I'd carry into a place would be a stool anyway.
But I will keep that in mind.
I plan on having both a pedal and thumbwheel for different situations.
I saw an interesting tig video on youtube last week, a guy was tigging under a car, laying on the ground, the foot pedal was on it's side with his right foot on top, and left foot under the pedal to support it. It was definitely a 'get-r-dun' moment.

Im welding up a cart for my MM180 using 1 x 1 x 0.063 sq tube, with 0.030 wire, they gave me with the machine. I have it on auto set, the problem I had with one of the connections, there was a 1\8 gap, when I went to weld it up I burned a hole in the tubing, it got pretty ugly. How do I prevent this from happening? Thanks for your advice.

Experience. Weave from side to side. Don't let it get too hot.
Do a series of spot welds to keep the metal from getting too hot and burning through. Pulse the trigger, when you see the metal start to cool (when the orange glow starts to fade a little) give it a little more and keep going til you get past the void you are trying to fill. Also try to keep the weld favored to the solid piece and just make enough of a weld to close up the gap and make a second pass if necessary. Just a few suggestions that may work for you. None of these are really the correct way of doing things but will work.
The correct way to remedy the problem is with good fit up of your pieces. Be a little more careful with your cutting and measuring. DaveIf necessity is the Mother of Invention, I must be the Father of Desperation!

1/8" gap
1. There is no substitute for good fit-up.
2. Having said that, a 1/8" gap is nothing (for a stick welder).
3. It is "Autoset" not "Autopilot".
4. Burning up the base metal is caused by concentrating too much heat. The whole point of welding is controlling the heat and blending the metals. Watch the puddle and you will know what is happening with both.
Good luck.Triggerman

Denver probably conjures up images of cowboys, saloons and the open prairie, but nothing could be further from the truth. Denver is a modern city with a lot of sights.
Denver is the capital of the State of Colorado and is known for its important meat industry. The city used to be a gold and silver mining centre. Denver's most important sights include the State Capitol, which was built in 1887 and has a gold-plated dome. There is also the Denver Mint, one of the places in America where coins are minted, and the less known Molly Brown house. Molly was the wife of a successful gold prospector. He was one of the few survivors of the Titanic disaster.
Important museums include the Denver Art Museum, with an excellent collection of Indian art, and the Museum of Western Art. The countryside and the mild climate are also important tourist attractions for Denver. The well-known Rocky Mountains are certainly well worth a visit.

*This article is a special internet edition*
Ken VanGiesen would be proud of his Kane community for the patriotism shown Thursday during his funeral procession from Kane Area High School to his final resting place at the Gibbs Hill Cemetery near Ludlow.
Along the entire route, children and adults waved American flags and held signs to salute their hero, who was killed earlier this month while serving in Afghanistan with the Pennsylvania Army National Guard.
Some along the 10-mile route even placed the palm of their right hand against their chest as the procession passed by for the private burial ceremony.
Before the cortege left the school, a huge crowd jammed into the auditorium for a funeral service led by the Rev. Chad Troup, who has been the pastor of the First Church of God along North Fraley Street in Kane for about two years.
And before the 40-minute funeral service, hundreds of Kane area residents and uniformed soldiers from various units waited in long lines in the school hallways for a chance to pay their respects. With school parking lots full, many had to park along Route 321.
VanGiesen's closed casket was placed front and center near the auditorium stage. The family greeted the visitors as they passed by the flag-draped casket. National Guard soldiers from the Kane unit served as the honor guard on both ends of the casket for their friend and comrade.
Staff Sgt. VanGiesen, who would have observed his 31st birthday next Wednesday, is the son of Tom and Sue VanGiesen of 137 Lincoln St., Kane. Since 1997, VanGiesen has been together with his longtime girlfriend, Erin Sirianni, also of Kane. The couple lived together in the house they own in Mill Creek Township near Erie.
Major General Wesley Craig, who as adjutant general is the overall leader of the entire Pennsylvania National Guard, was among the many military dignitaries at the visitation, funeral service and private burial ceremony.
Craig said he was overwhelmed by the "extraordinary" support for the fallen soldier shown by the Kane community.
"He was one of my soldiers," Craig told The Kane Republican. "I had to be here."
Craig was joined Thursday in Kane by several other military leaders, including Major General Randall Marchi, who is the commander of the 28th Infantry Division of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. This division includes the Kane unit, which VanGiesen joined after graduating from Kane High School in 1999.
"Sergeant VanGiesen is part of our extended family," Marchi told The Kane Republican. "He'll always be part of our family."
This is the second visit to Kane within a week for both Craig and Marchi. They came to Kane last Friday to visit privately with the families of Tom and Sue VanGiesen and Frank and Sherry Sirianni, who are the parents of Erin.
A helicopter transported the generals to Kane last week and again Thursday.
In his message at the funeral, Troup called VanGiesen "a bona fide hero who quietly served his country and his buddies."
Troup said the fallen soldier loved to fish and hunt and root for the Pittsburgh Steelers pro football team.
But Troup said "his country and his family meant even more to him."
Troup said he knows that the soldier also read the Bible.
"His father recently quoted a scripture from the Bible to Ken and Ken corrected him," Troup said. "That shows me that Ken read his Bible."
Troup said Christians like the VanGiesens who have faith in God "know it will not be the last time we see Ken."
The VanGiesens told The Kane Republican last week that faith in God is helping them to endure the loss of their son-- who is the youngest of their three children.
Lt. Drew Campbell of Pittsburgh, who is the commander of the Kane unit of the National Guard, stepped to the podium at the school auditorium to announce several military awards for VanGiesen.
The awards include the Bronze Star for service to "Operation Enduring Freedom," a Purple Heart, a NATO medal, a state Guard award for meritorious service and medals for the Afghanistan campaign and the Global War on Terrorism.
The loss of VanGiesen is the first casualty ever for Campbell, who has been the commander at the Kane Guard unit for about 18 months.
"It's never easy being a soldier," Campbell said.
Members of various patriotic motorcycle clubs held American flags along the sidewalks leading to Kane High School. Club members also provided a motorcycle escort for the funeral procession from the high school to the intersection of Route 6 and Gibbs Hill Road near Ludlow.
Gov. Tom Corbett has ordered flags across the state to be flown at half-staff in honor of VanGiesen and two other Pennsylvania National Guard soldiers who were all killed July 18 while riding together in a truck in a convoy. An improvised explosive device (IED) detonated near the vehicle.
Members of the administration for the Kane School District assisted with the public visitation and funeral service at the high school. Ronald McDonald II, a Kane funeral director, handled the arrangements.
Jeff Kepler, the principal at Kane High School, said he was a biology teacher for the fallen soldier and his two siblings.
"They are great kids and it's a great family," Kepler said in commenting on the VanGiesens. The soldier's siblings include a sister, Amie Gullifer of Kane and a brother, Matt VanGiesen of Oak Harbor, Wash.
The ceremony at the cemetery included the presentation of folded American flags to families of both VanGiesen and Sirianni. The service also included a 21-gun salute by a National Guard rifle squad and the playing of taps by a National Guard bugler.
Intermittent rain, heavy at times, fell during the funeral procession from the high school, down Hemlock Avenue and up Fraley Street through the Uptown Business District to the cemetery near Ludlow.
Despite the rain, many spectators stood along the route and waved American flags. Members of Kane area volunteer fire companies lined up shoulder-to-shoulder along Fraley Street to show their respect for the fallen soldier.

You could be forgiven for thinking that the Indiana General Assembly dwells entirely on the grand arguments about whether to cut taxes and how much to spend on schools and transportation. The big issues draw the most coverage and the most advertising during campaigns.
But in the shadow of the big issues, plenty of other legislation sprouts. Here's a sample of some of the lesser-known bills introduced this session.
It's my body, and I'll have it dissolved in lye if I want to
House Bill 1285 would require state regulators to write rules for the use of "alkaline hydrolysis" as a means of disposing of human remains. This process is promoted by some as a more ecologically sensitive alternative to cremation. Sponsors: Vanessa Summers, D-Indianapolis, and Jeff Thompson, R-Lizton. To view this bill, click here.
James Bond, outdoorsman
Senate Bill 199 would repeal a prohibition on the use of silencers while hunting. However, using a silencer to kill deer or wild turkey would become a Class C misdemeanor under certain circumstances. It also makes using a silencer while hunting on private land without the owner's permission a Class B misdemeanor. Sponsor: Travis Holdman, R-Markle. To view this bill, click here.
Hog wild?
House Bill 1075 would void a "provision in the administrative code that defines a 'wild hog' as having skeletal characteristics indicative of a hog of wild or Eurasian origin." Sponsor: David Ober, R-Albion. To view this bill, click here.
Got milk, if you dare
Senate Bill 610 would allow people to get unpasteurized milk from animals they own or which they own a share of. It also would allow them to serve or distribute that milk to members of their family or nonpaying guests. Sponsors: Jim Banks, R-Columbia City, and John Waterman, R-Shelburn. To view this bill, click here.
A deer's right of way extends only so far
Senate Bill 104 would allow managers of public-use airports to chase or kill at any time, without a hunting license, a wild animal that is on an airport property containing a runway or apron. Sponsor: Brent Steele, R-Bedford. To view this bill, click here.
In pursuit of more authentic 'West Side Story' performances
Senate Bill 181 would remove a provision in state law that makes it a Class B misdemeanor to make, possess or sell switchblades. Sponsors: Jim Tomes, R-Wadesville, and Johnny Nugent, R-Lawrenceburg. To view this bill, click here.
Let's play cowboys and Indians
Senate Bill 462 would make the fourth Saturday of July "National Day of the Cowboy and Cowgirl" in Indiana. Striking a cultural balance, it would make the third weekend of May "the First People's Celebration Weekend in Indiana in observance of the Corn Planting Moon Ceremony." Sponsor: John Waterman, R-Shelburn. To view this bill, click here.
What about well-regulated bait shops?
Senate Joint Resolution 7 would amend the Indiana Constitution to include a constitutional right to hunt and fish. Sponsor: Brent Steele, R-Bedford. To view this bill, click here.
Unfurl the flags – after you fund them generously.
Senate Bill 50 would appropriate $500,000 from the state's general fund to the Civil War flags fund to be used by the Indiana war memorials commission to restore and preserve Civil War flags. Sponsor: Allen Paul, R-Richmond. To view this bill, click here.
Write this way
Senate Bill 120 would require elementary schools to teach cursive writing. Sponsors: Jean Leising, R-Oldenburg, Mike Delph, R-Carmel, and Vaneta Becker, R-Evansville. To view this bill, click here.
Die American
House Bill 1122 would require coffin distributors to mark each coffin with its country of origin. Sponsor: Dick Hamm, R-Richmond. To view this bill, click here.

Like Father Like Son BABY!!!!
First both those connerback have player well, Smith IMO is much less the play maker than Davis but Davis is a bit immature and has been nicked up and missed time compared to Smith. IMO Davis probably would have pushed us into the playoffs last year if we had not traded him. The quetion I have is does Philbin want these guys. Ireland has in the past until last year resigned his draft picks which indicates to me that he and Philbin are working together on these decisions and Philbin is indicating he would rather draft his own guys and lets Tony's and Irelands picks go. IMO we have to many quality free agents this year to let this happen to. If CB was our only area of concern I would say sure let the Smith walk. I really would prefer us to resign most of own FA and maybe sign only Wallace and look to the draft.
So if Sean Smith walks, who do we replace him with? Oh, and Vontae too, because we never replaced him. Are we going to sign 2 new starting CBs in FA? Draft them both? Then how do we upgrade the WRs and TE? What about getting Wake some help on the pass rush? And since we're letting Jake walk, we'll need a new LT, or RT if Martin slides over. If you want to replace all that in the draft, you better hope Ireland finds some "acorns" in the late rounds, and that he hits a home run on all 5 picks in the first 3 rounds. This fanbase is completely unrealistic.
No one is saying Sean Smith is a world beater. He is competent. He has experience starting in the NFL, and he hasn't missed any time with injuries. He needs to be resigned, if only to make sure we have one less hole to fill otherwise. He can be upgraded in a season or 2, when our other needs aren't so glaring...
I'll give you Ogunleye. That was Wannstedt being Wannstedt.
Larry Izzo was 13 years ago and a special teams player. A very fine special teams player, but a special teams player nonetheless. And Sammy Morris...what is there to say to that? His highest rushing season was 700 yards.
With the exception of Ogunleye and maybe Izzo, none of the players you listed "became great" after Miami let them walk. Not a single one. And when your entire post is based on the premise that former players become studs after we let them walk, and exactly 2 of them have, then your going to get called out. What evidence do you have to suggest Sean Smith will become the shutdown corner you have promised? Because the evidence you used before, that your now saying im just "arguing your analogy", has proven to be completely wrong.
Terrorist attack count against the Anything Goes Thread: 4
To compliment Wake, we can sign Dwight Freeney of whom excelled in the 4-3 defense we're running right now. He is obviously up in age, but none the less a future HOFer. I wouldn't believe he would have an absurd contract request either. If we cannot land Freeney, I pick up Sam Montgomery from LSU in the 2nd to compliment Wake. Don't include Jake Long leaving as a fact in your post either, you and I both know stranger things have happened. So the CB situation is handled, a promising starter is opposite Wake, we pick a 3rd round talent at WR as well as adding Jennings/Wallace and see if we can sign any starting caliber OTs in free agency.
Your plan relies on moving up for a rookie corner, and signing a journeyman out of Jacksonville to "solidify" our defensive backfield. Or we go with 2 rookie corners again, and take a pass rusher in the second. We then sign Dwight Freeney (who'll most likely want to sign with a contender seeing as he only has a few seasons left) who has lost a step to "fix" our pass rush. For WR, we sign the big FA we are all anticipating, and take the best WR available to us in the third. We re-sign Jake Long, and what about TE?
In your plan, with our 5 picks in the top 100, we have 3 defenders and a WR. The only addition to our offense, one of the worst in the league, is a Greg/Jennings and a 3rd round WR. Our secondary is being manned by a rookie and a journeyman corner, or 2 rookies, and our new passrusher is 36 and past his prime, or a rookie who is sliding down draft boards. I don't see how we've improved much in this plan. Our offense is about the same, our secondary got younger and less experienced, and our passrush probably hasn't changed much, depending on what Freeney has left in the tank or how quickly the rookie adapts. I'm sorry man, but that would be an absolutely horrible offseason. One that would cost Ireland his job...
Yep, I would buy that for a dollar!

Hater's shake my hand, but i keep that sanitizer on DECK!
Dwight Freeney has lost a few steps, take him off the artificial surface for half the year and I don't seem much from him, and he is not looking to sign a cheap deal either. Let SS walk and we will pay for it in more ways than 1.

En español | After his wife's cardiac arrest, the 70-year-old man carefully avoided saying anything negative. He feared upsetting her — and thereby inviting another heart attack.
Nor did his wife express her worries — her frustration, her sadness — for fear of upsetting him.
Through this mutually protective collusion, the pair accentuated the positive so avidly that their rapport became superficial and stilted. Like so many caregivers and care recipients, the couple subscribed to "the power of positive thinking." What they missed out on was the healing power of sadness.
And that's understandable: The best way to sustain each other's morale through this medical crisis, they believed, was to cheer each other on. To accomplish that, the man and woman gave voice to almost exclusively upbeat thoughts and feelings. Venting negative emotions, in their view, could only harm their health, their psyches and possibly their relationship. But that needn't be the only way, and it's very likely not the best way.
Sharing what you've lost in the wake of a chronic illness or medical event, sometimes disparaged as "stinking thinking," can actually bring couples and families closer together.
Like others struggling to cope with adversity, the couple profiled above is engaging in what psychologists call a conspiracy of silence. Perfectly normal fears and other emotions churned up by a life-changing condition — the wife's fear of a second heart attack, the husband's frustration at his wife's slow recovery — are pooh-poohed or squelched.
Optimism counts; its effects are far more salutary than wallowing in misery. But when well-meaning family members start censoring what they say to one another, they stop sharing the full range of life's joys and sorrows. The result: unintended distancing and isolation.
To make that point, I frequently ask couples, "Did you argue, or complain to one another, before this medical event occurred?"
"Of course," comes the response.
I then ask, "Has this crisis made you less open with one another? Do you confide in each other less now than you did before?"
The reply to that is usually just an uncomfortable shrug.
A better way to bolster family cohesion and resilience in situations like these is to balance — or try to balance — the positive and the negative: Keep hope and good humor alive, yes, but at the same time feel free to voice your doubts, disappointments and anxieties.
How can caregiving families put the (seemingly) negative to positive use? Here are three ways:
1. Put worries into words
Throughout the caregiving years, all family members worry to some degree or another. It's a natural response to uncertainty; it's also a proven means of preparing for the challenges ahead. When family members hesitate to speak up, however, they often start to internalize their angst. If only they would voice their concerns! Doing so enables relatives to gauge (and possibly correct) each other's unrealistic anxieties, thereby gaining reassurance. In short, sharing worries can activate a family's comfort and support systems.

Gallery: ArchiCentre's S11 House Scores Platinum Level on the Malaysian...
S11 House is a 12,000-square-foot home that is designed based on the characteristics of a tree in the tropics. The roof is a large, insulated canopy made from recyclable steel metal sheets coated in a light white paint, which minimizes heat absorption. Roof insulation was also used made from 200mm thick rockwool and two layers of reflective foil. Ventilated air space also separates the metal roof from the rockwool. ArchiCentre made sure that the home's roof protected the residents of S11 House, but in a way that didn't compromise sustainable building practices.
Though the home is large, ArchiCentre found a way to minimize energy consumption and shrink the carbon footprint to resemble that of a small home. Through active systems, such as the 5 KW photovoltaic array mounted on the roof, the home manages to generate enough electricity to even sell back excess to the national electric grid. The home is also designed with a series of wind turbines combined with glazed pyramids that create "stack effect" ventilation due to temperature differentials. This helps to keep cooling needs low. Blackwater is treated onsite; rainwater is collected and harvested; and compost is collected for the gardens in the backyard. The list of sustainable features seems to be recorded as if the architect checked every box in the "green building" textbook.
Many of the homes materials were reused from the demolished 1960s-era house that previously stood on the site. Old concrete roof tiles were crushed for gravel fill, clay bricks were cleaned and used as feature walls, steel was sold off to local manufacturers, and roofing timbers were used for formwork. In the end, the interior of the S11 house has bare, natural finishes that complement each other very well. Concrete, common red clay tiles, FSC-certified timber flooring, and cement plaster are all exposed with minimum paint.
ArchiCentre is emerging as a young powerhouse for design in Malaysia. The firm recently won the Malaysia Young Architect Award in 2012 and continue to be featured in magazines and blogs all over the world every month. S11 House was the Residential Architecture award winner for Futurarc Green Leadership in 2012, and won multiple awards of excellence by PAM Awards in 2011.

For immediate release - August 17, 2012
The Marianne Beck Memorial Library in Howey-in-the-Hills will be expanding to better serve patrons. This expansion will add approximately 700 square feet that will provide additional space for enhanced programming and library resources. Library services will be suspended and the library closed during this construction project beginning on August 22, 2012. The anticipated re-opening will be in December of 2012.
Library staff will not have access to computers for processing during this period so will be unable to process holds and checkouts at the Marianne Beck Memorial Library location. Patrons are asked to change their "Holds" pick-up location to any of the remaining 14 member and branch libraries. A book-drop will remain on the premises for those wishing to return materials in Howey.
Check the website http://www.mylakelibrary.org/libraries/marianne_beck_memorial.aspx for updates and construction news. The goal is to open in December, in time for a Holiday Open house.

Adventures » OA Wilderness Voyage
The Order of the Arrow Wilderness Voyage program is an experience like no other. For two weeks, you will join together with Arrowmen from around the country and experience all that the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota has to offer.
The first week of the program is spent giving back to the Boundary Waters through portage trail restoration work. Participants have the opportunity to leave their mark on the Boundary Waters that will enable millions of visitors each year to better enjoy their experience. Trail work involves restoring and protecting trails that have existed for centuries and are in dire need or repair.
The second part of the program is a trek planned by the crew. From the 8-1/2 mile "Grand Portage" leading to Lake Superior, to the Height of Land, even the pictographs on Fishdance Lake, crews have done and seen all in the Boundary Waters.

Venue: Autodromo Nazionale, Monza
Circuit Length: 5.793 kilometres
Laps: 53
Lap Record: 1:21.046 = 257.320 km/h • Rubens Barrichello (Ferrari) • 2004
Odd note:
It's Italy's greatest sporting cathedral, where the tifosi come to worship in their droves. But it's also one of the least successful tracks for Italian drivers. For its first three seasons as a World Championship venue Monza had Italian heroes in first place: Farina for Alfa Romeo in 1950, Ascari and Ferrari in 1951-52. They then had to wait 14 years for Ludovico Scarfiotti to win in a Ferrari – and no Italian has won the Italian Grand Prix there since.
Q: Who is the one other driver we might include in that Italian winners' list?
The Track:
'La pista magica': that's what they call Monza, and with good reason – it's hallowed ground if you're a motor racing fan, 'the temple of speed', as Ferrari like to call it too, the fastest track they go to in 2013. Essentially the modern Monza is just straights and chicanes, with top speeds over 330 km/h and 77% of the lap at full noise. In other words, it's an engine track, as Ferrari specialist Luca Marmorini acknowledges: "Monza, along with Spa, is a track where the engine plays a major role in the overall performance of the car. So each single horsepower has a greater influence on the lap time. It's a very difficult track, because the drivers apply full throttle for almost the entire lap, around 80% of it. Therefore engine reliability is a critical factor."
Last fling in Europe
European fans have their last chance to see the current V8 formula in action this weekend – and Australia's Mark Webber has his last chance to make an impression on a track he reveres. "It's very Formula One in terms of its history and its atmosphere," says Red Bull's man. "All of the greats have raced there and I have an affinity with Italians from my Minardi days. The track is one of a kind, it's an incredibly fast circuit with high top speeds, so there's a lot of heavy braking. Monza has never been that kind to me; I've had a few retirements and have never finished on the podium, so I want to get a good result there this year!" In fact sixth in 2010 is Mark's best Monza result to date.
For the other Aussie, Monza week is already one to remember. Dan Ricciardo has been confirmed as Webber's replacement at Red Bull next year so there will be an added spring in his step in Monza's royal park this weekend. "I feel very, very good at the moment and obviously there's a lot of excitement running through me," says the 24-year-old Toro Rosso driver. "Since joining F1 in 2011, I hoped this would happen and over time the belief in me has grown; I had some good results and Red Bull has decided that this is it, so it's a good time."
Monza has been won by the pole-sitter in eight of the last 10 seasons, and Mercedes pole specialist Lewis Hamilton did just that last year – for McLaren. "Monza is a truly amazing circuit and it's a great feeling to drive at our top speeds of the year there," says Hamilton. "The layout and atmosphere of Monza are very special and it really feels like you are going back to Formula One's roots when you race there. The car has a completely different aerodynamic package to anywhere else on the calendar with really low downforce to make the most of the four long straights. My win in Italy last year was the first of my career at this circuit and it was a great feeling." While Sebastian Vettel has a commanding points lead, Hamilton is just 12 behind Fernando Alonso in the fight for second place.
Like Vettel, Alonso has won at Monza for two different teams: McLaren in 2007 (from pole), which was his final victory for Ron Dennis, and for Ferrari (also from pole) in 2010. Teammate Felipe Massa was third that day but the little Brazilian has again been very publicly put on notice this week that he needs to lift his game. The eminently likeable Stefano Domenicali was not playing Mr. Nice Guy when asked who is likely to be alongside Alonso at Maranello next year. "My favourite choice would be, of course, to keep Felipe," he said. "Felipe is a very good guy - very dedicated to the team. But, of course, we need good results from Felipe." And that's something they haven't enjoyed consistently for five years. His fourth place in Melbourne is his best this year; he is currently 84 points adrift of Alonso – and 94 is the number that separates Ferrari from the lead of the Constructors' Championship.
McLaren also take on Monza in a very special week: they celebrated their 50th anniversary before heading to Italy. Ron Dennis, the man who made the modern McLaren Group, summed up the ethos behind the marque: "Call it McLaren's DNA, if you like. Call it McLaren's brand continuity, if you prefer. Call it McLaren's corporate culture, if you will. Call it McLaren's undiminished hunger to win in everything we do, and you'd probably be getting closest to what I mean, what I think, and what I feel." Ten times they have won at Monza, but don't expect #11 any time soon. Still, Jenson Button remains defiant: "When you have the car hooked up beneath you, you get into a special kind of rhythm around Monza: you're going so fast that the whole lap just flows together. There's nowhere quite like it," he says. "So it's really appropriate that McLaren will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in the paddock over the Monza weekend. Both names are synonymous with motorsport history – you couldn't imagine Formula 1 without them – so I'll be hoping for a strong result to show the strength and depth that we have as a team."
Defiant, too, is Kimi Raïkkönen. Lotus's Finnish star has never won at Monza, and last time out in Spa his record run of race finishes came to a halt. No problem – Kimi's ready to be quick again: "For one reason or another things just haven't worked out for me, but it doesn't mean I can't drive the track. Just because I have not won at a circuit in the past it doesn't mean that I won't win or get a good result there in the future. It's great to go there with everything working well in your car and see how quickly you can go. It's the place where we go really, really fast…"

Christian Ponder is 100x the QB Jacory Harris will ever dream about being. I'm crushed Jacory the past couple of seasons, but he's really came a long way this season. I'm impressed with the kid. But he doesn't have it at the next level...
Now, Ryan Williams...watch that kid.
They seem pretty poorly coached to me. Not nearly as bad as Carolina but we kinda expected this in Chapel Hill. I mean if you're going to lower yourself to this level and recruit all this professional talent you might as well win some games right?
Liked the Golden hire from the get-go, you can even look back on the official thread and see.
Great things are on the horizon.
Ryan Williams is who I'm looking forward to watching start next season as well. Dude's going to light it up.

Klamath Falls, Ore. - A year long moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries is now in place in Klamath County.
The public testimony was emotional at times.
"I suffer from spinal spasms - all day long." Noted dispensary applicant Ilo Ferroggiaro. "And I can use the western medicines that are prescribed, my daughter calls them 'the couch monster pills.'"
Darlene Cunningham is opposed to the dispensaries "Please, I beg of you - do not allow these shops to open."
The discussion packed the commissioner's hearing room.
Of the 22 people that testified before the commissioners this morning, 17 were in favor of the moratorium, while 5 others favored the opening of the dispensaries.
Terry Noriel of On Site Drug and Alcohol Testing: "If we legalize marijuana, how are we going to know that people aren't driving a vehicle, and killing someone that we love? How do we know they're not on a job site, injuring somebody they work next to?"
Shiloh Dahms of Klamath Falls: "It's a doctor prescribed medication that is legal in the state of Oregon, with proven medical benefits."
After 2 hours of testimony, the commissioners voted unanimously in favor of the moratorium.
"So, this isn't the end of the world." Cautioned Commissioner Dennis Linthicum. "This is simply May first of 2015 - a moratorium will be in place."
The county moratorium will not impact a recent city ordinance allowing medical marijuana dispensaries.
Ed Medina, Jr. of 'A Better Way' dispensary in the city says he's still waiting for his license from the state before he can open.
Medina says he expects that license to arrive within a week.

The sector snapshot
Which sector has the highest percentage of overall revenue spend on innovation? From automotive to utilities, view the data snapshot for more than 30 industrial sectors. Build your own charts by comparing global data with sector-specific data.
About the survey
For our survey—the largest and most comprehensive study of its kind exploring innovation from a global, multi-sector perspective—we drew on insights obtained from interviews with board-level executives with responsibility for overseeing innovation from 1,757 companies, across more than 25 countries and 30 sectors.
For the purpose of our analysis, we segmented these companies based on a balanced scorecard calculated from their responses to the following six areas, which are explored in our study:
- How important innovation is to their company
- Their appetite for innovation (on a scale from "laggard" to "pioneer")
- The proportion of annual revenue derived from major products?or services launched in the previous year
- The proportion of annual revenue spent on innovation
- The proportion of products and services co-developed with external partners
- Their projected revenue growth over the next five years
From this scorecard, we then identified the top 20% innovators (359 companies), and the bottom 20% innovators (395 companies), enabling us to contrast their relative characteristics and experiences—and zero in on the strategies and tactics of the most-innovative group.
Industry focus
Managing innovation in pharma
The insatiable appetite of society, investors and patients for pharmaceutical innovation is linked to the breakthrough advances in science and technology by the innovation process. Managing small steps in that process can make a big difference.
Using innovation to drive sustainable growth in the chemicals industry
In this report we talk about how companies can broaden innovation efforts beyond products and increase their innovation ambition. We also focus on getting the basics right, building and maintaining a strong innovation culture, and enhancing collaboration.
The runway to growth
In this report, we look at how companies can use market understanding to drive efficient innovation in the aerospace, defence and security industry. We also discuss how companies can combat the "value erosion" that can happen in large-scale, long-term projects.
Making innovation go further in metals
This report looks at how metals companies are faring in their innovation strategies and puts this in the context of the sector and other sectors. We also examine how companies could gain by widening their innovation focus.
Gateway to growth: Innovation in the Oil and Gas Industry
We surveyed 66 oil and gas industry executives from 18 countries across the energy value chain, to find out how innovation is impacting their businesses. The oil and gas respondents in our survey anticipate faster revenue growth than nearly any other sector. Some of this growth may come from energy price increases. But for oil and gas, that is far from the whole story.

Donald "Joe" Sobotka, 91, of Beaconsfield died Nov. 23, 2012, at Clearview Home in Mount Ayr.
Funeral services were 10:30 a.m. today, Nov. 26, at Watson-Armstrong Funeral Home, 205 W. Monroe St., Mount Ayr. The Rev. Skip Rushing officiated. Burial will be at a later date. A memorial fund has been established in his name to be decided later. Online condolences may be left at www.watsonarmstrongfh.com.
Donald "Joe" Sobotka, son of Beulah (Roudybush) and Edward Sobotka, was born Jan. 8, 1921, at the farmstead near Diagonal. When he was 8, his mother died after childbirth. Joe was raised by his father and stepmother Frances (Cabaret).
Joe worked on the family farm, then left to serve in the U.S. Army.
On Feb. 14, 1941, he and Mildred Main were married.
After a few years of farming, Joe moved to Mount Ayr. He owned The Sandwich Shop and was a partner with Lefty Geist for a time.
In the mid-1950s, Joe started his own construction business, clearing land and building terraces and farm ponds. He purchased a farm south of Beaconsfield in the 1960s. He built ponds and made several improvements. After retirement, he started Joe's Catfish Farm.
In earlier years, Joe was active in the Mount Ayr Fire Department and was fire chief when the new fire station was built. He was active in Ringgold Post No. 172 American Legion and helped build the Mount Ayr race track.

Visitors will also be able to enjoy a movie with softer volume and more ambient light in our theater. Free to Science Center members.
The Orlando Science Center is committed to providing a safe and friendly environment for all guests.
