General Electric Co. announced that it has hired 115 people at its gas engine business in Waukesha in the past 18 months, bringing its workforce at the site to about 680 people.
The announcement was made as part of a ceremony for the company's $3.1 million investment in its engineering center.
Gov. Scott Walker and local economic development officials attended the ceremony Wednesday afternoon for the renovated 22,000-square-foot engineering center.
GE said about 100 people work in engineering at the company's Waukesha operations.
The former Waukesha Engine makes natural gas engines used in oil and gas fields, factories and utilities worldwide.
The engines power compressors used in natural gas production, transmission and storage, electrical generators used in oil fields and air compressors, cooling systems, blowers and pumps used in industrial and utility applications.
The ceremony Wednesday is part of a series of events nationally that GE is holding under the name GE Works.
The business unit - known as GE Energy's Waukesha Gas Engines - is one of seven within GE's Power & Water, the company's largest industrial business.
GE - which had revenue of $147.3 billion last year and employs more than 290,000 employees worldwide - has operations in the Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, Waukesha and Madison and employs more than 7,000 people in Wisconsin.
That includes more than 6,500 people - more than 70% of them with degrees from Wisconsin colleges and universities - who work for GE Healthcare in the state.
Other GE products made in Wisconsin include imaging equipment for X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance, ultrasound and other technologies, ventilators and equipment for delivering anesthesia.
Separately, GE Healthcare announced this week that it is committing more than $3 million to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, including $2 million to establish the GE Healthcare Center for Advanced Computational Imaging and to fund classes and a graduate-level certificate program in software development for medical imaging.
The balance will be given to the UWM Research Foundation to fund promising imaging research at the university.

2013 Hyundai Elantra
Problems & Complaints
CarComplaints.com Notes: We're not used to seeing any major problems with Hyundai, which makes the early signs of trouble with the 2013 Elantra very surprising, in a bad way.
Early trends show problems with the steering wandering / pulling to one side. Elantra owners have tried sensor adjustments, wheel alignments, even replacing axles, most with no luck. Hyundai has made vehicle buybacks through arbitration, but that rarely works out well financially for owners in the end.
Also there is a pattern of complaints about the 2013 Elantra brakes grinding at very low mileage. It seems there was a bad batch of OEM pads & rotors, but so far Hyundai is not doing a recall. Instead Hyundai issued a TSB & dealers have been replacing pads & rotors on a per-complaint basis.
The final straw is that for several years in a row, Elantra owners report significantly lower gas mileage than the EPA estimates.

I stayed at the EconoLodge because I was attending a conference at the Garden State Convention Center. It is not the type of hotel I would usually choose for business. However, I was participating in a Choice Hotel promotion that was approaching its deadline and needed one more stay to achieve a free night. The price for this hotel was very attractive but EconoLodges definitely have a reputation for being spartan. As I pulled up, the exterior was not unattractive and the lobby area gave me at least some confidence that this was not a bad choice. The decor appeared to have been updated and was reasonably nice. The room was quite adequate as it was spacious and clean. However, the TV was a vintage Zenith and there was not a particularly wide array of channels available. But this was not unexpected. The WiFi was free and worked fine during my stay. The morning breakfast was strictly continental which led me to go out each morning to one of the restaurants down Easton Ave. However, on the positive side, at least there was coffee available all day. I also discovered I could walk to the Convention Center via the back way using connecting parking lots. In the end, based on the price I paid, I would say this hotel was just fine.

Verizon has rebuffed reports that it is planning a joint bid with AT&T for UK operator Vodafone.
Earlier this week, the UK's Financial Times newspaper cited "usually reliable people" as saying that AT&T (Dallas, TX, USA) and Verizon (New York City, NY, USA) were preparing a complex $245 billion bid that would see Verizon take full control of Verizon Wireless – its mobile joint venture with Vodafone (Newbury, UK) – while AT&T acquired the rest of Vodafone's assets.
In a statement, Verizon said it does not "currently have any intention to merge with or make an offer for Vodafone, whether alone or in conjunction with others".
Nevertheless, the US operator said it remained interested in acquiring Vodafone's 45% stake in Verizon Wireless.
Vodafone's stock rose by as much as 6.1% on Tuesday, following publication of the Financial Times story, but fell by 3.2% in early-hours trading on Wednesday, after Verizon had denied interest in a joint bid.
"We view Vodafone as a very reluctant seller," wrote Robin Bienenstock, an analyst with Sanford C. Bernstein, reports Bloomberg.
With its European operations struggling, Vodafone's stake in Verizon Wireless remains its most valuable asset, worth as much $115 billion, according to various analyst estimates.
Some Vodafone shareholders might welcome a sale on such terms, with competition in the US market likely to intensify if a merger of T-Mobile USA (Bellevue, WA, USA) and MetroPCS (Richardson, TX, USA) goes ahead.
But Vodafone's management would naturally be wary of quitting a market that is still growing and relatively lightly regulated, given the shortage of other attractive investment opportunities in the telecoms sector.
Moreover, Vodafone could face a substantial capital gains tax on any sale because Verizon Wireless is now worth so much more than when it was created in 2000.
Neither Vodafone nor AT&T had commented on the Financial Times story at the time of writing.
Earlier this year, AT&T was said to be considering an entry into the European market, with UK mobile operator EE (Hatfield, UK) and Dutch incumbent KPN (The Hague, Netherlands) cited as possible acquisition targets.
AT&T chief executive Randall Stephenson had reportedly expressed interest in taking US practices into Europe, but analysts had questioned the rationale for such a move given the fiercely competitive and heavily regulated nature of most European markets.

ANN ARBOR, MICH. (AP) - Michigan wide receiver Darryl Stonum is glad coach Rich Rodriguez didn't give up on him after he was sentenced for drunken driving and spent three days in jail in June for violating terms of his probation.
The 21st-ranked Wolverines are thankful he's making the most of his opportunity.
As Michigan prepares for Saturday's game at home against Bowling Green, Stonum leads the team with 12 catches for 188 yards and two touchdowns and is its top kickoff returner.
"It was a rough journey, but we all learn from our mistakes," he said. "I thank coach Rod, he stayed with me, didn't give up on me and gave me a chance to prove that I matured and grew up."
Rodriguez said Stonum is flourishing on the field because his choices have improved away from it.
"I certainly think it's related," Rodriguez said. "Sometimes when a guy messes up, everybody wants to throw him out to the wolves. I understand it sometimes because you get frustrated when guys mess up.
"But it's pleasing I'm sure to our fans, it is certainly for the coaches, when you see a guy grow and mature. I'm dealing with guys 17 or 18 that sometimes make bad decisions. Sometimes they grow up and they just get it. I think Darryl, hopefully, gets it."
Michigan will be looking for improvement on defense after a lackluster performance last week against Massachusetts, giving up 217 yards and three touchdowns on the ground and 222 yards and two touchdowns through the air in a 42-37 win.
The Wolverines (3-0) might have a chance to gain confidence when Bowling Green (1-2) has the ball. Aaron Pankratz or Trent Hurley will be a first-time starter in place of quarterback Matt Schilz, who left last week's win against Marshall with a shoulder injury.
Falcons coach Dave Clawson is trying to convince his players that they can compete.
"We're going to take the approach that it's a once-a-year shot on a very, very big stage in front of a lot of people," Clawson said. "We need to make the most of the opportunity."
Bryan Wright is taking advantage of a chance to kick field goals for Bowling Green, where he is in graduate school after being used as a kickoff specialist last season at Michigan. He's looking forward to being back at the Big House _ for the first time as a visitor.
"It's going to be very exciting and very emotional," Wright said.
For Stonum, it's been a been a climb to success.
He was a freshman when he was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated and driving with a suspended license on Sept. 28, 2008. Rodriguez suspended him for one game for violating team rules and didn't start him in the next game.

One of Gwinnett's longest serving judges will retire.
Gwinnett Superior Court Judge Michael Clark notified Gov. Nathan Deal Thursday that he will leave his post Feb. 28.
"It has been my distinct honor and privilege to serve as a Superior Court Judge for over 21 years with the finest bench in the state, the Gwinnett Judicial Circuit," Clark said in his letter. "The relationships with my colleagues and the bar have made my experience even more rewarding and I will always cherish my service. I, however, have decided to pursue a new challenge and return to the practice of law."
Clark plans to join the Suwanee firm of Oxendine and Sauls.
As Clark's term will not have expired, he asked Deal to name a successor, as law requires.
In the letter, he added: "I respectfully request, also, that you continue your efforts to increase the compensation that my colleagues on the Superior Court, Court of Appeals and Supreme Court of Georgia, receive. These benches are composed of some of the finest lawyers in the state and they provide an excellent service."

d "through the windows of this book" gives us a vivid and living picture of the boy who dwelt so much in a world of his own with his quaint thoughts.
If his body was frail his spirit was strong and his power of imagination so great that he cheered himself through many a weary day by playing he was "captain of a tidy little ship," a soldier, a fierce pirate, an Indian chief, or an explorer in foreign lands. Miles he travelled in his little bed.
"I have just to shut my eyes, To go sailing through the skies-- To go sailing far away To the pleasant Land of Play"
he says.

Rockwood's hopes of winning the Region 2-AA regular season title took a major blow Friday night when the Tigers traveled to Karns and suffered a heartbreaking 37-27 loss to Grace Christian in overtime.
"Our kids played their hind ends off out there tonight," Tiger head coach John Webb said after the game.
Rockwood fans, coaches and players left the field Friday night thinking an injustice had been done. With just over seven minutes remaining in the contest, Rockwood star Isiah Jones scored a touchdown to give the Tigers a 27-13 lead.
Kingston and Christian Academy of Knoxville (CAK) both entered Friday's Class 3A, Region 2 game unbeaten. Only one could leave that way, and unfortunately for the home Yellow Jackets, it was CAK with a 35-14 victory.
"We could never really get it going offensively," Kingston head coach Brian Pankey said. "Against a team like that, you got to keep their offense off the field. We weren't able to do that, and we came up short."
A team filled with youth showed improvement Friday night, but that wasn't enough in the end, as Larry Green's Oliver Springs Bobcats dropped a 41-20 decision in a Region 2-AA contest at Sweetwater.
"The kids gave great effort tonight," Green said following the game. "We're young right now, but we'll keep fighting, and we'll keep getting better."
A missed extra point and a 43-yard field goal try that barely went wide left the Midway Green Waves on the short end of a 7-6 decision Friday night against Oneida in a whale of a defensive battle at Midway.
Both teams had each other scouted out almost perfectly. Midway did cut off the power running game of the Indians, while Oneida shut down Midway's speed, and cut down the wide runs and also their passing attack.
Oneida scored on a 40 yard-run from Zack King in the first quarter. Evan Roberts hit the point after to make the score 7-0.
The 2015 football season is nearing the halfway point, and the games gain in importance with each passing week.
This week four of Roane County's five teams will be in action, with all four taking on region opponents. Harriman is off this week.
Two of the games will take place in Region 2-AA, as Rockwood and Oliver Springs both hit the road. The Bobcats will be at Sweetwater, while Rockwood travels to Karns to take on Grace Christian Academy.
Roane State Community College sophomore basketball player Kassidi Freeman of Madisonville recently earned top academic honors in the Tennessee Community College Athletic Association (TCCAA).
Six additional players also received recognition for their academic performance.
Freeman had the highest grade-point average (3.83) of any women's basketball player in the TCCAA. She was named a TCCAA Distinguished Scholar-Athlete.
The Kingston Yellow Jackets didn't take a lot of shots during Tuesday's home game against Rockwood, but when the Lady Jackets did get off a shot it was a good one in downing the Lady Tigers, 3-0.
In the first 65 minutes of play Tuesday, Kingston took just three shots, but all three were strong shots that found the back of the net.
By GOOSE LINDSAY
In what was a wild Thursday night of football at D.J. Brittan Field, the Oliver Springs Middle School Bobcats rallied from behind in the closing minutes to keep its perfect season alive with a 52-40 victory over Harriman.
The Bobcats trailed 40-38 late in the contest, but took the lead for good when Tre Boswell scored from 8 yards out with 1:28 left in the game to cap an 8-play, 74-yard scoring drive.
Facing a fourth-and-1 with about two minutes to play against Spring City last Thursday, Cherokee Middle School football coach Wiley Brackett challenged his team to get the first down.
The Yellow Jackets responded and got the first down on a quarterback sneak, which allowed them to run out the clock in the 16-14 victory.
"That was an old-fashion, physical football game on both sides of the ball." Brackett said. "We were just a little bit more physical up front than they were."
A brief but heavy rain storm did not stop the Midway Middle Green Waves and the Rockwood Middle Tigers from kicking off on time, but it did alter some of the play calling on a soaking wet field.
Now 1-4, Rockwood will try to get their second win Thursday when they host Cherokee.
Midway drops to 3-2 with the loss and will host Spring City on Thursday.
After both teams ran three plays and punted to end their first possessions, Midway got a spark on its second possession for the game's first points.
