New to hanging and wanted to try out a PLUQ for the warmer months here. No sew or sewn, doesn't matter to me. Thanks in advance.
Yes, its a newer shelter. Hanging at shelters (in the area, not in the shelter which is a no-no) can be a little dicey. Cleared areas sometimes onlydakotaross Today, 12:40

Apple mulls GPGPU and iChat; UK stores without contract iPhone?Apple has potentially tipped its hand through a job posting and revealed iChat as the first known app to use OpenCL with new video cards. Also, British Apple stores may be forced to sell iPhone 3G as prepay-only due to their current sales methods.
Job listing points to general-purpose GPU use in iChat
Although Apple has made clear its intent to build support for general-purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs) into Mac OS X Snow Leopard with its awareness of NVIDIA technology and its hopes to formally ratify OpenCL as an industry standard, a new posting for a position at the computer giant's Cupertino campus may point to one of the first practical applications of the technology in its software.
An entry for a Senior Software Engineer at the company asks for a recruit who is familiar with video conferencing and cross-platform programming but who is also ideally aware of GPGPU technology, suggesting that the company may use the more generalized nature of new video chipsets to handle tasks in iChat or other communication programs that aren't directly related to conventional image processing.
While the nature of any possible additions isn't mentioned in the listing, an earlier post searching for multiple software engineers specifically mentions a GPGPU engineer who would help develop libraries for calculating physics, signal processing, and similar tasks.
Apple's UK retail to be limited to prepaid iPhone 3G?
British buyers looking for iPhone 3G on July 11th might need to shop beyond Apple if they want the fully subsidized pricing, according to statements made by an O2 spokeswoman to Mobile Today.
At the moment, UK Apple stores don't have a way to check customer credit on-site and haven't trained staff on how to register customers on contract plans. The limitation would all but require Apple's own stores to offer iPhone 3G as a prepaid device that could cost £350 in the country.
While the original iPhone was activated at home and so didn't require that Apple retail staff activate phones themselves, the need to activate on location potentially shuts out Apple's current sales system and may require that sign-ups for term-based plans — and the accompanying heavily discounted iPhones — take place at Carphone Warehouse and O2 locations.
Despite the added business it would bring to O2's direct outlets, the wireless carrier says it's cooperating with the iPhone maker to allow in-store activations for either company, though there's no indication as to whether it will be ready for launch on July 11th.
"We are currently working closely with Apple to enable them to issue contracts in store," the spokeswoman says. "Full details are still to be confirmed."

Death by Black Hole: And Other Cosmic Quandaries (Paperback)Neil deGrasse Tyson
Paperback Published: 12/09/2014
- In stock
Click & Collect From your local shop
Readers of his essays in Natural History magazine recognise Neil deGrasse Tyson's talent for guiding them through the mysteries of the cosmos with clarity and enthusiasm. Here, Tyson compiles his favourite essays across a myriad of topics. The title essay introduces readers to the physics of black holes by explaining the gory details of what would happen to your body if you fell into one. "Holy Wars" examines the needless friction between science and religion in the context of historical conflicts. And "Hollywood Nights" assails the movie industry's feeble efforts to get its night skies right.

The URI RFC doesn't mandate a format for the query string. Although it is recognized that the query string will often carry name-value pairs, it is not required to (e.g. it will often contain another URI).
HTML establishes that a form submitted via HTTP GET should encode the form values as name-value pairs in the form "?key1=value1&key2=value2..." (properly encoded). Parsing of the query string is up to the server-side code (e.g. Java servlet engine).
You don't identify what server-side framework you use, if any, but it is possible that your server-side framework may assume the query string will always be in name-value pairs and it may choke on a query string that is not in that format (e.g.

The present invention relates generally to medicine cabinets and, more specifically, to a medicine cabinet having shelves that are less than the full width of the cabinet and that are completely supported at one end by engaging the rear of the cabinet and at the other end by engaging the side of the cabinet.
Medicine cabinets of the type used in bathrooms of residential dwellings for storing articles such as medicines and personal hygiene products typically have a rectangular pan-shaped housing with a hinged door. The door may have a mirror, and the cabinet may be mounted in a recessed manner in the bathroom wall. The interior of the housing typically has multiple shelves. In some conventional medicine cabinets the shelves may be moved or adjusted to multiple vertical positions to accommodate articles of different sizes.
Practitioners in the art have addressed the problem of maximizing storage in a medicine cabinet when articles of different sizes are stored. In a conventional medicine cabinet, the vertical distance between shelves must be adjusted to accommodate the tallest article placed on the lower shelf. Thus, the space above shorter articles is wasted, particularly if only a very small number of articles are taller than the other articles. Often, it is difficult or inconvenient to group articles of a particular height together on a shelf. For these reasons practitioners have developed medicine cabinets that have shelves extending across the cabinet only a fraction of the cabinet width, such as one-half. A shorter article on one side of the cabinet may thus be placed adjacent a taller article on the other side of the cabinet, and a half-width shelf may be placed directly above the shorter article.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,139,322, issued to Aisley, discloses a medicine cabinet that has half-width shelves, which are movable among a plurality of vertical positions. A central support bracket disposed vertically in the cabinet and formed integrally with the rear wall of the cabinet engages and supports one end of each half-width shelf. A side wall of the cabinet engages and supports the other end. Although such an arrangement increases storage space, it lacks flexibility because the central bracket is immovable and of a predetermined length.
A medicine cabinet manufactured by Jensen General Corp. has half-width shelves that are movable among a plurality of vertical positions. A post supports one end of each shelf in the middle of the cabinet, and a side wall of the cabinet supports the other end. The post has a snap-type connector that engages one of a plurality of holes arrayed vertically down the middle of the rear wall. The post also has two diametrically opposing grooves along its length. A horizontal surface extending the full width of the cabinet may be formed by inserting one shelf between one groove and one side wall and another shelf between the other groove and the other side wall. Such a cabinet is not economical to manufacture because it comprises several different parts. Moreover, seating a post in the rear wall of the cabinet and then seating two shelves between the post and the side walls is an inconvenient procedure because it involves two separate steps and three separate parts. In addition, a user must be careful to ensure that the ends of the shelves are properly seated in the post before placing articles on the shelves.
A medicine cabinet that has movable shelves that extend less than the full width of the cabinet, is economical to manufacture, and is simple and convenient to use is needed. These problems and deficiencies are clearly felt in the art and are solved by the present invention in the manner described below.
The present invention comprises a substantially rectangular pan-shaped housing, a door, and a plurality of shelves on which articles may be supported. The shelves may be relocated to a plurality of positions in the interior of the housing to accommodate articles of different sizes.
The housing comprises an upper wall, a lower wall, two side walls, and a rear wall. A door, which may have a mirrored exterior, may be connected to the front of one of the sides of the housing in any suitable manner known in the art. The walls may have any suitable thickness and construction, and features of the present invention described herein with respect to the housing walls should be construed with respect to those portions of the housing walls defining the interior of the housing.
The rear wall has a plurality of vertical slots spaced along a vertical line. Each side wall has a plurality of horizontal slots spaced along it.
The shelves have a length that is a fraction of the length of the upper and lower walls. Each shelf fits between a side wall and a vertical slot. The shelves may have identical lengths or they may have different lengths. One end of each shelf has a tab for engaging the horizontal slots, and the other end has a hook for engaging the vertical slots. Each shelf provides a planar horizontal surface for supporting articles when its tab is engaged in a horizontal slot and its hook is engaged in a vertical slot.
Shelves may be located in the housing to provide a surface for supporting articles that extends either the entire length of the upper and lower walls or only a fraction of that length. A surface extending the former distance may be provided by locating two shelves adjacent one another at the same elevation in the housing with the hooks of the two shelves engaging the same vertical slot. A surface extending the latter distance may be provided by locating only one shelf at a given elevation in the housing.
The foregoing, together with other features and advantages of the present invention, will become more apparent when referring to the following specification, claims, and accompanying drawings.
For a more complete understanding of the present invention, reference is now made to the following detailed description of the embodiments illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a typical medicine cabinet with several shelves in place;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of one shelf;
FIG. 3 is a side elevation view, partially cut away, showing insertion of a shelf;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along line 3--3 of FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is front view showing flexing of a shelf during insertion; and
FIG. 6 is an enlarged side view of a shelf showing the hook.
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the present invention comprises a housing 10 that may be mounted in an opening in the wall of a dwelling (not shown). Housing 10 has a top wall 12, a bottom wall 14, two side walls 16 and 18, and a rear wall 20. A mirrored door 22 is attached with a hinge 24 to the forward portion of side wall 16. As will be recognized by persons of skill in the art, the assembly consisting of housing 10 and door 22 is vertically symmetric and may be mounted in a wall with door 22 either to the left or right of housing 10. Each of side walls 16 and 18 has a plurality of horizontal slots 26 spaced along its length. Rear wall 20 has a plurality of vertical slots 28 spaced along a vertical axis bisecting rear wall 20 into left and right halves. Although other materials may be suitable, housing 10 is preferably made of sheet metal.
As shown best in FIGS. 3-5, horizontal slots 26 may comprise a plurality of paired openings defined by inward protrusions 27 and 29 of a type commonly used to provide mounting slots for glass shelves (not shown) or other shelves commonly used in the art. Although pairing of horizontal slots 26 is not required by the present invention, it is important to note that the present invention can be used to provide a novel relocatable shelf arrangement in existing medicine cabinets that are designed to receive glass or similar shelves.
As illustrated in FIG. 2, the present invention further comprises a plurality of shelves 30 that may be installed in housing 10. Each shelf 30 is preferably approximately as long as the distance between the axis along which vertical slots 28 are spaced and one of side walls 16 and 18. Each shelf 30 is preferably approximately as wide as the distance between rear wall 20 and the forward portion of housing 10. Each shelf 30 has a flat surface 32 for supporting articles, a lip 34 at a forward edge for preventing articles from slipping over the forward edge, a brace 36 at a rearward edge, a tab 38 at a first end, and a cantilever support 40 at a second end. Cantilever support 40 has a hook 42 at the rearward edge of shelf 30. Although other materials may be suitable, shelves 30 are preferably made of sheet metal.
Lip 34, brace 36, tab 38, and cantilever support 40 are all preferably integrally formed with surface 32. Lip 34, brace 36, and cantilever support 40 may be formed by bending the sheet metal of shelf 30 at an angle of 90� with respect to surface 32. Tab 38 may also be angled with respect to surface 32. Hook 42 is preferably integrally formed with cantilever support 42 and may be an extension of the sheet metal of cantilever support 42 coplanar with cantilever support 42.
A shelf 30 may be installed in housing 10 by engaging tab 38 in one of horizontal slots 26 and engaging hook 42 in one of vertical slots 28. Horizontal slots 26 and vertical slots 28 are arranged at suitable elevations in housing 10 to support shelf 30 in a horizontal orientation when it is installed. Two shelves 30 may be installed in a side-by-side configuration at the same elevation in housing 10 by engaging their respective hooks 42 in the same vertical slot 28. Hooks 42 preferably have a thickness less than or equal to one half the width of vertical slot 28 to facilitate installation of two shelves 30 in the side-by-side configuration.
The plurality of shelves 30 consists of a plurality of shelves 30 having a left-hand orientation for installation on the left side of housing 10 and a plurality of shelves 30 having a right-hand orientation for installation on the right side of housing 10. Shelves 30 having a left-hand orientation have tab 38 on the left side of surface 32 and cantilever support 40 on the right side of surface 32, and shelves 30 having a right-hand orientation have tab 38 on the right side of surface 32 and cantilever support 40 on the left side of surface 32.
To describe installation of a shelf 30 in housing 10 in further detail, reference is made to FIGS. 3-6. Tab 38 is first inserted into one of horizontal slots 26. If horizontal slots 26 comprise paired openings, tab 38 may be inserted into either opening but is preferably inserted into the upper opening, as shown. The long portion 44 of hook 42, which is defined between a hook bottom edge 52 and a long portion top edge 46, is then inserted into one of vertical slots 28. As it is inserted, the upper edge 46 of long portion 44 is hooked upwardly to urge it completely through to the opposite side of rear wall 20. Long portion 44 is longer than vertical slot 28 and, as shown in FIG. 6, may have a beveled edge 48 extending between hook bottom edge 52 and a long portion rearward edge 50 to facilitate this hooking motion.
When shelf 30 is installed in housing 10, the short portion 54 of hook 42, which is defined between hook bottom edge 52 and a short portion top edge 56, extends through vertical slot 28. The hook bottom edge 52 rests on the vertical slot bottom edge 58 to support shelf 30. A portion of the cantilever support rearward edge 60 contacts rear wall 20, and brace 36 also contacts rear wall 20 to provide additional support and stability to shelf 30. The long portion forward edge 62 abuts the opposite side of rear wall 20 to retain shelf 30 against rear wall 20.
The horizontal slot 26 into which tab 38 is inserted may have a width that is sufficiently greater than the thickness of tab 38 to allow a user to move or rotate shelf 30 with tab 38 extending into slot 26 to an orientation where long portion 44 of hook 42 can be completely inserted through vertical slot 28. However, it is preferred that the horizontal slot 26 into which tab 38 is inserted have a width substantially equal to the thickness of tab 38 such that a minimal clearance exists between them when tab 38 extends into slot 26. Shelf 30 is thus restrained against substantial rotational movement relative to horizontal slot 26. Shelf 30 must therefore flex or twist in response to a torsional force applied by a user in order for long portion 44 of hook 42 to be inserted through vertical slot 28, as shown in FIG. 5. Although it is preferred that the clearance between tabs 38 and horizontal slots 26 be minimized, a combination of flexure and rotation of shelf 30 is also suitable.
Obviously, other embodiments and modifications of the present invention will occur readily to those of ordinary skill in the art in view of these teachings. Therefore, this invention is to be limited only by the following claims, which include all such other embodiments and modifications when viewed in conjunction with the above specification and accompanying drawings.

Management is going to clear up all the BS short lies!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow, be there!
Stock is green in the pre-market that is a good sign . Looking forward to the CC call.
they better be careful what they say. if they use the wrong word, you might see this trading at $2 tomorrow!
What about this one ? Wrong or right ? LOL
Hycroft expansion update
The capital cost estimate for the expansion project remains at $1.24 billion. To date, we have purchased or have fixed contracts in place for approximately $720 million, or 58% of the total capital budget. Management continues to believe that the remaining capital to be committed of $523 million is sufficient to complete our expansion project within our estimate of $1.2 billion, with start-up in the first quarter of 2015.
Did you even read the press release??!! LOL Even morons are making money in this market by spreading false rumors. Why would they call a press conference to say the wrong word? You got greedy. Plain and simple.

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 185,871, filed Oct. 1, 1971, now abandoned.
This invention relates to a protein-rich, nutritional product prepared from a thick aqueous cereal suspension through cooking and forming by extrusion. More particularly, the invention resides in the employment of a screw-type extruder having an artistically-shaped die to provide a uniquely-shaped extrusion product of substantially uniform cross-section and thereafter slicing the extruded material into thin flakes so as to provide a finished product especially suitable for use as a nutritious and appetizing infant food.
Conventional drum drying involves the application of a liquid material in the form of a solution or slurry to a revolving heated metal drum that conducts heat to the wet material during a partial revolution of the drum to reduce the water content thereof by evaporation. The dried material is thereafter scraped from the surface of the drum by a stationary knife (doctor blade) spaced around the drum periphery from the point of application by an arcuate distance corresponding to that desired to allow for drying. In this manner, the product is exposed to heat during the brief time required for the drum to rotate around this arc between the point of application and the fixed location of the knife.
In the fluid cereal slurry industry, the drying is usually accomplished with atmospheric double drum dryers, i.e., a pair of closely spaced cylindrical drying surfaces that are heated internally such as by steam. Drums are conventionally employed that have the same radius and are in parallel alignment with their axes of rotation on the same level.
The cereal slurry to be dried is disposed as a "puddle" or pool in the space (trough) formed between the upper adjacent surfaces of the two drums. The puddle, normally in direct contact with the upper adjacent surfaces of both drums, provides a thin film that is deposited on the drums as they rotate downwardly toward the nip formed between their adjacent outer surfaces. Drying of the film continues throughout the aforementioned arcuate interval while the sheet is in contact with the heated drum surface prior to being scraped from each drum by respective stationary blades. Flaking is either accomplished simultaneously with the scraping or is produced subsequently with separate apparatus.
Present practice in the cereal drying industry involves the use of a relatively thin cereal slurry, i.e., a slurry having a solids content usually no greater than about 14 percent by total weight. The reason for this is that when the cereal slurry solids content is increased above about 14 percent, the slurry viscosity also increases proportionally with the result that cushions or pockets of steam form between the layer of slurry and the hot surface of the drum dryer. Thereafter, as the aqueous content of the slurry vaporizes, the pockets of air are not released but remain entrapped between the cereal layer and the drum surface. For this reason, the film of cereal slurry that is formed on the dryer roll is neither continuous nor uniform.
The resulting dried end product is found to be lacy and thin and not reduced to the required bulk density. Furthermore, the lack of continuous contact between the heated drum dryer surface and the cereal slurry decreases the efficiency of the heat-transfer therebetween. As a result, the anticipated increase in production rate has not been found to be accomplished when solids content has been increased significantly above 14 percent. Thus, the cereal industry is presently limited to the treatment of slurries having the aforementioned low, solids concentrations.
It has now been found that a moist, free flowing blend of cereal having an extremely high solid content, i.e., in the range of 70 percent to 88 percent solids and more, can be processed through utilization of extrusion as the principal method for both mixing and shaping the moist blend into a continuous "rope" of generally uniform cross-section. This rope is then sliced into increments of a thickness corresponding to flakes heretofore formed by drum drying practices, i.e., from about 0.001 to about 0.2 inches. The uniformity of thickness obtainable with the instant process results in a product having highly consistent characteristics. Thereafter, the low moisture containing flake need only be subjected to a minimum amount of additional drying to reduce the ultimate water content to that commercially acceptable for the end product. The resulting dried flakes exhibit a repetitive appearance and uniform texture and are useful as a cold cereal for consumption with milk as well as a snack-type food for both small children and adults.
In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the dry components of the cereal composition are preliminarily blended, mixed with the prescribed amount of water, and thereafter subjected to gradual advancement through a screw-type heated extruder. In this manner, the extruder not only uniformly disperses the blended materials in the liquid but provides uniform cooking of the resulting thick paste. By employing an extruder having a die with an ornate or artistic opening and utilizing a cutting device mounted thereon for dividing the extruded composition into flakes of desired thickness, the generally repetitive appearance of the ultimate dried product has been found to be particularly palatable to the consumer.
In another embodiment, the extruded and sliced product, still damp in texture can be coated with a layer of a sugar-rich composition. When the moisture content is subsequently adjusted by drying, the coating has been found to uniformly adhere to the product. Other ingredients such as vitamins, minerals and the like can also be incorporated with the coating to enhance the nutritional value of the extruded cereal product.
The dry cereal components utilized in this invention include cereal grains such as oat, rice, barley, wheat, corn, soy, as well as mixtures thereof and special composites such as hi-protein formulas. Additional ingredients can include calcium phosphate, calcium cascinate, as well as various conventional minerals, vitamins and seasonings.
The process of this invention is most advantageously accomplished in the following manner. First the dry ingredients are blended and water is then added to adjust the moisture content to 12-30 percent by weight. The resulting wet blend is cooked at a temperature of 230�-310� F and thereafter the cooked, slightly wet blend is extruded as a continuous "rope" having an appropriate diameter which is then sliced into pellets, i.e., short segments of the ribbon. These segments are then further divided into portions having a thickness of about 0.01 to 0.2 inch and the moisture content reduced to the prescribed level.
Turning now to various steps of the process in greater detail, it has been found advantageous to conduct the preliminary blending of the dry ingredients in equipment such as a conventional ribbon-type blender. By incorporating the water in the blender simultaneously therewith, a degree of preliminary mixing is accomplished prior to transfer of the ingredients to the extruder. It has been found to be particularly advantageous to utilize a screw-type extruder having a plurality of jacketed zones that can be either heated (or cooled) individually. Furthermore, added advantages have been found to be provided when the extruder screw is cored (or hollow) so that additional heating (or cooling) may be accomplished.
The extruder is advantageously equipped with a cutting device, pressure-sensing gauge and a thermocouple. In addition, an adapter can be provided at the end of the extruder to allow for the attachment of dies having various configurations of openings. The pressure gauge and thermocouple are placed immediately preceding the die so that the processing pressure and temperature can be readily ascertained. The aforementioned compartmented zones provide heat to the product by conduction and further heat is imputed to the product by the friction developed with the rotating screw. The heat imputed from the extruder surfaces to the product accomplishes the desired cooking.
Although any configuration of shaped opening can be provided in the extruder die, it has been found to be particularly advantageous for the die to enable the production of an extruded product having a star-shaped configuration. Openings ranging in their largest dimension from about 1/16 to about 1/4 inch are useful, as the extruded product has been found to expand by a factor of about 3 upon release from the die.
The extruder is advantageously provided with a cutter blade for attachment and controlled periodic rotation along the outer surface of the extruder head to cut the extruded material into short segments as it leaves the extruder. It is preferable for the segments of extruded product to be of a length suitable for feeding to an Urschel mill that is fitted with a further slicing head. Such segments, that are conveniently formed in a length of from 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch, are then sliced to a thickness of about 0.005 inches or greater depending upon the particular type of product desired. It will be apparent to one skilled in this art that alternatively, the finely-divided flakes can also be formed by a single operation as the thick paste is released from the extruder opening.
Additional moisture reduction to provide a commercially dry product can thereafter be accomplished with any of the drying equipment conventionally available. Such devices can include surface combustion batch tray suspended dryers that operate at about 300� F. When used in describing the product of this invention, the term "commercially dry" is intended to include cereal products having a moisture content of about 5 percent by total weight or less.
To further illustrate the invention, the following example is provided. It should be understood that the particular details of the example are not to be regarded as limitations as they may be varied as will be understood by one skilled in this art.
The following components were mixed in a ribbon blender:
______________________________________ QuantityComponent (Pounds)______________________________________Out Floor 100Calcium Phosphate 2.13Iodized Salt 1.20Sugar 5.00______________________________________
The moisture content was adjusted to 19.5% by the addition of 26.25 pounds of water. The moist, free flowing blend was metered at a uniform rate to an extruder having 4 jacketed heating zones and manufactured by the Bonnot Company of Canton, Ohio. The extruder was equipped with a 10 horsepower variable drive motor having a screw speed range of approximately 70 to 235 rpm. Steam introduction into the heating zones was sufficient to raise the temperature of the moist blend to about 300� F as it reached that end of the extruder containing the die head. The die head had openings of about 1/8 inch in diameter. The moist blend was forced out of the die under a pressure of 600 pounds per square inch gauge and cut into lengths of about 1/4 inch. The extruded particles were found to have expanded, on an average, to about 3/8 inch in diameter. The extruded particles were conveyed to an Urschel mill and sliced into flakes about 0.015 inches in thickness. The resulting flakes were transferred to a batch dryer operated at 280� F and the moisture content reduced to about 5 percent.
Although the foregoing invention has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity of understanding, it will be appreciated that certain changes and modifications may be practiced within the scope of the invention as limited only by the scope of the appended claims.

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.0 /5 from 341 reviews
Right across from the beach and fun
We were told they would switch us to a room with an ocean view bc of issues with our group placing they never called back and once we called I guess someone new was working and wanted us to pay an additional $80 a night or something like that. I never received the refeigerator that I ask for as well.
Great hotel, but lacks self parking and wall are very thin and can hear everything in the next room. (I guess thats why they put ear plugs on the nightstand) No free wifi is a big negative and parking is less desired because they force valet on you.
The service was excellent, staff was polite, friendly and helpful. Lobby bar was great, with selection of sports on TV, friendly service and very good food. The grilled fish tacos were terrific. The bathroom shower had some mold up high on the walls where it might have been difficult to clean. The noise from the road and neighbors was a bit loud with the balcony door open, but was worth it for the great fresh ocean air. Short walking distance to the beach and a wide variety of shops and restaurants.
It was a random getaway that me and my husband needed . We loved the location, and the beds were super comfy!!

Larry Fink caring, focused, and concerned environmentalist
07/01/2007 - By by Tobi Tesoriero
Larry Fink is dedicated to preserving the pastoral beauty in town, along with the important environmental balance of the waterways. He acts as steward and watchman, protecting the land he loves.
Larry Fink is dedicated to preserving the pastoral beauty in town, along with the important environmental balance of the waterways. He acts as steward and watchman, protecting the land he loves.
Fink shared that it was the respect he has for the land that initially led him into civic involvement; and involved he certainly is! He co-founded CILU (Citizens for Informed Land Use) as well as FOHOS (Friends of Holmdel Open Space). He has served as Vice-Chairman of the Monmouth County Environmental Council, and as a member of Congressman Rush Holts Land Use Advisory Committee. He was also on the Holmdel Environmental Committee and the towns Planning Board. Presently, he is a Holmdel Township Committeeman and a member of the Open Space Advisory Council.
Fink traces his love of land back to his youth. Growing up in Haddon Township, he witnessed the impact unbridled development could have on the land and character of a community. He remembers playing in the forest, fields, and streams behind his house as a boy and being entranced by the wonders of nature. He also recalls that very paradise being destroyed by bulldozers that came in and knocked down the trees and disrupted the streams. He watched as the final remnants of his forest were paved over. He also heard of the mysterious fire that destroyed one of the old farmhouses in the area where the new shopping center was to be built. As he became active in the Boy Scouts where he hiked and camped, his respect for the land continued. As a matter of fact, his Eagle Scout project was the repair of hiking trails.
It seemed a logical extension that, as an adult, Fink would continue to enjoy, understand, and try to protect the land. As far back as 1991, Fink felt the need to become environmentally involved. He became aware that the Ramanessin Brooks headwaters began at the Art Center and continued through town to the Swimming River Reservoir (a potable water supply). He realized there were many other important waterways through town and set out to create a Natural Resource Inventory. He applied for grants, conducted studies, tested water from 11 different streams and, along with teams of volunteers, catalogued 300 different species, several of which were on the endangered species list. Since then Fink has continued in various venues studying, learning, and educating others about the importance of proper land usage. His work has been recognized with awards for Holmdel, including the Achievement in Planning Award from New Jersey Planning Officials and the Planning Merit Award from the Monmouth County Planning Board.
He has also been involved in many projects that enhance Holmdels land usage in recreational capacities. One project in which Fink was involved was Cross Farm Park, which serves the community's recreation needs, as its fields are used by many participants in the HYAA (Holmdel Youth Athletic Association). This spring, the park has been enhanced with the addition of a sheltered area and concession stand.
Larry was also involved in the Roggy Field project (which hosted a top-flight international track meet this spring). This project was unique, as it partnered the town and the school district, as well as creating a public and private partnership for financing. The field is available for use by the school as well as the township; the track consists of an artificial turf surface material that is not as affected by rain and water, and which allows it to be used year round. The field is also used by football, soccer, and field hockey teams.
Currently, Fink is concerned about the future of the Lucent tract. He hopes that people are mindful of the importance of that property to the town. At this time, 3/4 of the 470-acre parcel is still designated open space with forests, farmland, and fields intact. It is his goal to try to keep it that way. The Ramanessin Brook greenway also runs through the property. He feels it is important that it stays protected.
Larry hopes that the community will remain vigilant and aware of what is happening at the site. PREI (Preferred Real Estate Investment) now owns the site and there are different proposals for its usage, both residential and corporate. On the residential side, Fink feels its important that residents know the stress which more homes would put on Holmdels infrastructure.
In the meantime, Larry Fink will continue his decades-old vigilance in protecting Holmdels environment. by Tobi Drucker Tesoriero

The lobbying team for industry group TechAmerica has moved over to the Information Technology Industry Council, beefing up that organization's lobbying efforts as part of a new public sector group.
TechAmerica's most senior public procurement lobbyists -- Trey Hodgkins, Erica McCann, Pam Walker and Carol Henton -- are now part of ITI's new Information Technology Alliance for Public Sector (ITAPS). In their new jobs, they will focus on technology procurement and regulatory issues at the federal, state and local level, according to an ITI statement on Nov. 5.
"ITI is increasingly at the forefront of a number of policy initiatives that shape how the U.S. public sector utilizes technology, and ITAPS will be an innovative complement to those efforts," said Hodgkins, now ITI's senior vice president for the public sector. ITI did not immediately provide exact job titles for Henton, McCann or Walker.
The departure of Hodgkins, McCann, Henton and Walker from TechAmerica would seem to leave that organization at a crossroads. Aside from the departures, The Huffington Post recently reported that the group has lost more than 75 clients since July, including some of the information industry's biggest names. Calls by FCW to TechAmerica for comment were not returned.
ITI's members include Apple, Adobe, Akamai, EBay, Lenovo, Ricoh, Samsung, Symantec, Teradata and Verisign.
Hodgkins, a long-time technical and policy expert at TechAmerica, said in ICI's statement that it "has been an honor and a privilege to serve at TechAmerica." He demurred on further explanation in a Nov. 5 conference call with reporters, however. During the call Hodgkins said his new job would focus on homeland security, national security, procurement and acquisition, state and local issues, and federal/civilian issues. The California-based Henton, he said, would work with companies in Silicon Valley, while Walker would concentrate on homeland security and McCann would deal with procurement/acquisition.
"ITI's mission is to be a global advocacy organization with impact, influence, and power commensurate with the dynamism and innovativeness of the tech sector," said ITI President and CEO Dean Garfield. "With ITAPS, the organization is now positioned to enable governments to wisely set tech policy, and how it buys and uses technology to better deliver government programs and services."
The convergence of advancing technologies, said Hodgkins, has presented an increasingly complicated operating theater for government agencies. Hodgkins said he hoped to help government agencies navigate the confluence of big data, wireless, the cloud, cybersecurity and other technologies. He said the troubled launch of the HealthCare.gov website showed that government procurement practices for IT systems and services is ripe for reform, something he also championed while at TechAmerica.

The latest version of the Defense Department-wide Enterprise Service Management Framework places more emphasis on managing IT risk.
Despite GSA's efforts to accelerate the FedRAMP approval process, the lack of agency reciprocity puts the program's central goals at risk.

The agency software inventories required under the draft category management policy will be treasure maps that lead to efficient, effective, streamlined buying and unprecedented savings.
As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.
Agencies have spent almost $23 billion on legacy IT over the past three years, according to reports to Congress. Is a revolving fund the answer?
The United Kingdom will go live with its governmentwide digital identity platform, GOV.UK Verify, in the coming days. The U.S. government will need a little more time.
What contracting officer representatives really think is needed to fix contract management.
As a former Tech America employee, I can tell you that this organization's demise is no surprise. For years, so many of us begged senior management to refocus on core offerings and to open their eyes to the organization's finances. The response was to fire the "squeaky wheels" and continue lining their pockets. So many lives and careers damaged by the experience of having worked there. What a loss the end of TechAmerica is when it could have contributed so much to technology advocacy.
