Who makes a 'basic' sailplane radio???
This may come off as more rant than question but...
Why the heck doesn't anyone produce a 'basic' sailplane radio in the $200-$300 price range?
I'm aware of the JR 9503 and the Hitec A9 and some other 9-12 channel rigs that'll do just about anything possible for $400-$1200. But for what I want from a rig they are all major overkill. It's not really the price it's the complexity of the programming and the fact that I just don't want about 60% of what those radios can do. I can barely keep it straight what the switches on my DX6i do.
To give an idea of what I'm saying, so far the closest rig that appeals to me is the Hitec Optic 6. It has a couple standard sailplane mixes (camber-crow), a couple flight modes, and a fifth proportional control (side levers). If it had one more channel to control separate flap servos, ail-flap mixing, and smaller RXs it would be exactly what I'm looking for. As it stands it's probably what I'm gonna go with anyway.
So is the radio I'm looking for out there and I just haven't found it yet?
ps... Don't even get me started on the Spektrum DX8. Talk about features I couldn't care less about (telemetry, SD card extra model memory, heli anything, and a twist knob for the extra proportional control that I'd have to let go of the ail stick to use). And what were they thinking mixing the heli and acro programming instructions all together throughout the manual? Gimme a $25 discount and keep the heli programming, I'll never use it.

I'm sure some other ideas on particular radios are coming your way, but thought I'd give you some input on my experience with the Optic 6.
My oldest radio (about 6 yrs) is an Optic 6. I originally flew it on 72mHz but have changed it over to 2.4. It's a solid radio but I do understand your desire for separate servo control on flaps although I am not flying full-house. On 72, I used the Berg RXs. Compact and very reliable. Since I've gone the 2.4 route, I have found room for both the Optima 6 and 7 in the rear of my pods, even my skinniest ones.
I originally had the same concerns about size of the Rxs, but cut a scrap of wood to the same size as the RXs and did some trial fitting. You may be surprised.
The only aftermarket change I did on the Optic was to go over to NiMH batteries on the TX to extend time. I still fly two of my sailplanes on my Optic and that is many hours a week.
I have no particular brand loyalty, but the Hitec equipment has served me very well.
Good luck on finding a good radio for you.
I bought my Spektrum DX7 almost two years ago and have never had an issue with it. With that said I agree about the manual. It is not written very clear on certain programming and almost every plane out at the field that has had a drop out and other issues are Spektrum.
If I had it to do over again I think I would try Futaba. I hear they are very good sets and easy to use and program.
But never having ever owned one, it is all anecdotal.
I appreciate the comments about the Optic 6. As I said it's likely the one I will eventually get. It seems like the best compromise of simplicity vs. features vs. price. Every time I tell myself "just buy the 9503 or the A9" I start reading their manuals and end up right back at the Optic 6 saying "yup, that's all I really want".
I'd be interested to hear from other Optic 6 owners, good or bad. Most of what I found searching is several years old.
I don't have a problem with Spektrum. I like the DX6i. I chose it over the 7. And the new DX8 just has too much stuff I don't care about and don't want to pay for. The manual format is different from both the 6i and the 7. Those manuals separate the heli and acro programming instructions into totally different sections. The DX8 manual jumbles them all together.
Maybe I'll have to take another look at the DX7 but I think I've read that it takes some mixing gymnastics to do full house sailplane functions like camber, crow, and ail/flap.
I suspect the reason there isn't a radio like what I want is because it would kill sales of the higher end radios to guys who just can't do without those couple extra features the low end radios are missing.
Man, I hear ya! I have been flying REALLY basic radio for decades now, starting with Ace s/c gear. My most complicated radio has 4 channels, with no auxilliary functions, no screen, nothing: we get along fine. Because I don't fly any form of competition (silly me, I go out to have fun), I need crow/mixing/model memory/etc like a moose needs a hat rack. Nowadays, I just hope that my old Futaba doesn't crap out, 'cuz buying what I want (range is VERY important where I fly) will be a real problem...
Here is a cheap 4 channell 2.4ghz radio systemj that I use. I have been flying it for a couple years now with no problems...

You may want to check out Airtronics as well. Seems there are quite a few fans of their radios. It is in your price range, has 8 channels and looks like it has enough sailplane features to keep you happy.
Here's a link: http://www.airtronics.net/index.php/...y-rds8000.html
Mike, I don't know how the manual for the 6 and 8 compare but I do have some experience with the 7. I admit that I am not the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree but I can usually figure things out. When it came to slaving an aux channel to the throttle channel for my OLYIII so I could adjust the spoilers separate, I had to give up and call Spektrum for help. For transmitter dummies like me I would prefer that the manual would say something like: 1.Do this. 2.Do this. 3.Do this.
But I am sure there are some gurus here that will come back and tell me that it actually does....
or in stock for $60
I have not tried the sailplane programming, but it is in there.

Is it possible that a good rc radio for sailplanes can cost only $54.00?

Good at any price(?)
The pricey part of any transmitter is in the quality of the mechanics (sticks, switches, etc.) and not in the electronics, I noticed that the transmitter uses 8 dry cells (not rechargeable). In all, $54 for the transmitter is reasonable, but be careful of the cost of shipping.
You can put NiMh in it but despite the fact that the rest of the design is clearly a JR copy the polarity of the connector is Futaba. I reversed mine.
Price includes a receiver, and new ones are $9.
Channel order is also Futaba.
Stick quality is not bad, feels better than a DX6 to me. Trims kind of suck, slow to respond to quick pushes. Only one 3 position switch, the rest are two position. And the timer beeps every second for the last minute - quite annoying.
It has a range check function, but I am not sure it actually works since I was unable to get out of range at our field.
So far I have only flown it in a foamy warbird, but it worked just fine as far out as i could fly it.

Oct 7, 2012It's so rare to find a game this well-conceived, well-designed, and well-built; usually, a game misfires at one of those stages. Rebuild isIt's so rare to find a game this well-conceived, well-designed, and well-built; usually, a game misfires at one of those stages. Rebuild is one of those rare exceptions. This game combines an outstanding game mechanic design with a solid and usable interface, overlaid on a great premise. The game has appeared on sites like Kongregate as well as the iOS release; the release for iOS has additional features.
At its heart, Rebuild is about putting the player into the tried-and-true zombie movie setup: it's the zompocalypse, and you -- along with a few other survivors -- have managed to secure a few blocks of the city from the rampaging undead horde. Now it's up to you. Rather than relying simply on the fight-a-zillion-zombies gunnery games out there, Rebuild eliminates the first-person fighting controls in favor of a more intelligent game platform. Much better than a simple twitch mouse shooter, this game put you into the position of command. You don't perform the missions yourself; you have your loyal followers for that. Scavenging for supplies, recruiting other survivors, reclaiming more blocks of the city, managing equipment, and even researching a few survival techs -- it's all on you to decide what gets priority and who is being sent to get the jobs done. At the same time, you need to keep your fort secure; humans and zombies alike will try to take it all away. The gameplay is solid turn-based-strategy at its best. It doesn't make the compromise that so many others have made (such as "The Last Stand" -- a good enough Flash game, but not something I'd pay to play), namely putting the player in the position of having to fend off attacks through frantic click-fest minigames. It's a poor decision in most cases simply because the UI (user interface, folks) just isn't up to translating the player's actions into game effect efficiently enough to avoid frustrating the player to death (which is why I gave up on The Last Stand, actually). Ergo, Rebuild takes that real-time stuff away and replaces it with far more in-depth gameplay. Scavenging nets food (of course), but also the occasional tool or weapon which can be used to "boost" a survivor's stats, of which there are several: tactical, scavenging, science, building, and leadership. Survivors also improve skills through completing missions and/or dedicated training. As a turn-based strategy game, it has no real equal. There are enough administrative duties to keep you busy without overwhelming, and plenty of special events with which to contend -- ranging from wild dogs to crazy people to pro-zombie activists (really!). The iOS release has seen regular updates, so far without a dud. The latest, version 3.0, added another layer of difficulty (optional) and took care of the last lingering UI lagginess. The level of customization available also adds a lot. You name your city, can rename your survivors (bring your friends into the zombie apocalypse!) like we all did in Oregon Trail, decide whether to replace buildings you've reclaimed and with what, how to outfit your survivors and who to assign to a particular mission. There are few limits imposed by the game structure; if you feel better sending 10 people on the same zombie hunt mission, do it. Sure, it's overkill and the UI tells you so, but it doesn't stop you from doing it. Likewise, if you really want fifty bars in your town, as long as you have eligible plots for them, fine. With a lot of games, tech research is a meaningless feature that is so poorly implemented that it's annoying, not rewarding. Pleasantly, Rebuild is not that way. There isn't a huge tech tree to research your way through; really only about six or seven techs currently exist. But those that exist do so for a reason, and make a considerable impact on your game. They're purely optional in that you *can* win without them, but they will make your life a lot easier. Perhaps the best feature, though, is the fact that, as a turn-based game, you can pick it up and put it down whenever you want. There's no pause button to have to remember, no save points or checkpoints. You can pick the game up and put it down at any time without any repercussions, making it perfect for a game for your commute (not while driving), break time at work, or whenever. If you are even a passing fan of the turn-based strategy genre and always thought you could outdo the losers in the zombie movies, here's your chance. Conveniently, it's also a great game.… Full Review »

To The Editor: I needed to get information from VFW Post 5206 on getting an application for a Veterans of Foreign War scholarship for my grandson. I was greeted by a bartender who asked me if I needed help. I said yes, and he said maybe he could help. I asked if I could talk to a member of the officeholders. I was told to give my name and telephone number.
I asked how soon could I expect an answer. His tone of voice and manner was condescending. I told him so and before I got to the door, the farewell was "Get your a-- out of here." I did my military time from 1942-45. I participated in D-Day, Normandy and Okinawa. I gave speeches of my experiences at Hendersonville High School twice. Thank you, VFW Post 5206.

PITTSBURGH (August 26, 2013)--Organizers of GoTopless.org were hoping to celebrate Women's Equality Day Sunday in Pittsburgh with a topless rally, fewer than a dozen protesters showed up and the only ones who were shirtless were guys.
Rally organizers said police warned them they could be arrested for appearing in public naked from the waist up.
Some of the female demonstrators wore strategically-placed duct tape or bikini tops to ensure they weren't showing too much.
Supporters of GoTopless.org contend it's unfair for men to be allowed to go shirtless in public while women can't.

Pueblo City Schools is spearheading a Safe Haven Program that will give students a place outside of school to turn to if they are being bullied or feel unsafe.
D60 is working on getting local businesses near schools to volunteer to act as a safe haven for students in need. They will place a poster that displays a bulldog and says "No Bullying Zone" in their window, signifying to students that they are there to help.
"If students are walking home from school and they are being bullied or harassed or feel endangered, the students will see a poster in the window. They can pop into that business and that community business owner will help that child make a phone call to home, or help them find an adult that can come pick them up," said Randy Evetts, Project Director for the Safe Schools Healthy Students Initiative.
The Safe Haven program was developed from the Safe Schools Healthy Students Initiative. Project Director Randy Evetts says the program has been in the works for about six months.
It has not yet been implemented, but they hope to have it up and running early this year. It could begin as early as February.
Evetts says they are still trying to secure partners and get local businesses on board.
D60 officials say they know that students are bullied in a variety of ways and in a variety of places. They hope to address bullying in all facets.
"We know that it doesn't just stop at the school doors and it doesn't just start at the school doors. The idea with this is really a community engagement effort. So wherever the students are they have someone to depend on," said Evetts. He adds, "If they are at school they can contact a teacher, adult, friend or sibling. But if they are on their way home, by themselves, or they need help they have a business owner to turn to."
Evetts says it's a great way for the community to get involved in the lives of students and a way they can help keep them safe.
D60 asked D70 to become a partner. D70's school board will vote Tuesday night on whether they will secure their spot as a partner.
Both school districts hope by having all of Pueblo County involved in this effort, that they can not only offer support for students, but could help minimize bullying in the community.
Evetts says he understands that bullying crosses boundaries, and says that getting the entire county on board will send a widespread message that bullying is something that will not be tolerated.
"We know that children who are bullied or who do not feel safe, often become disengaged from school, may have mental health issues, or do not have great success in the classroom sometimes because of that. So by creating a community effort that is easy to get involved with, we hope that the community will come behind us and help us reduce the amount of bullying in our schools and neighborhoods, "said Evetts.
The program will not cost business owners a cent. The districts will make the posters and distribute them.
As soon as partners have secured their partnership and approved the poster with their logo on it, students will go out in the community and talk to local business owners about bullying and how they can help students.
They hope to have the program in place the next few months.
For more information or to learn how to get involved, contact Pueblo City Schools at 719-549-7100.

Trying to finish up a few new Fallout posters for the upcoming convention. I've been wanting to do this one for a long time, because it combines several of my favorite things- Fluttershy, Fallout, and godless killing machines.
Er, I mean bears.
Based on this thingy- [link]
More stuff to come! Thanks everyone!

You know, I was actually thinking that the appropriate ponified name for California would be "Cauliflower", since it shares the same syllable count, has something to do with vegetables, and doesn't require a forced pony pun too.
Shouldn't Flutters look older? She was at least middle-aged when she got turned into a tree...
Otherwise, I love this!
Otherwise, I love this!
this is gonna be a new California state flag
So much yes! Fallout is my favorite franchise and ponies make it even better!
Thingy? More like the Flag of the New California Republic.
Lol Fluttershy <3
friendship... friendship never changes.
Or does it? By the way what is that from because I remember it from Duty Calls, a parody game of call of duty.
oh I like it
That reminds me, I wonder if Bearmageddon is back on?
That reminds me, I wonder if Bearmageddon is back on?
I still can't get over Fluttershy snapping that bear's neck in "Lesson Zero".
How did I miss this? I finally got a new background!
I am a huge Fallout fan and I absolutely love this vector beyond words! If you still have it, could you please upload a larger version (1920x1080) to use as a desktop wallpaper?
Awesome What could go wrong with ponies and fallout? nothing..
Why could this not have been the real, in-game flag? It's so much better than that one...
As silly as it looks, it actually makes sense! (MASSIVE FALLOUT: EQUESTRIA SPOILER ALERT! STOP READING NOW!) Fluttershy is the only one of the Ministry Mares left at the end of the story. She holds a great deal of symbolic power. The NCR just might put her on the flag!
WTF lune republic, awsome rebublic and now this omg
hell yeahs
Well, that's interesting. Good job!
double spine snap! My god. Someone needs to send that clip into the Colbert Report! He would flip for that! Less so for the 'she's just giving him a massage thing' but whatever.
A big yay from a California brony!!!!!
Fluttershy makes everything better, even a long time faction that I didn't even noticed when I played the first two Fallout games. This is cute work Pixel, keep it up.
Ca(lifornia)nterlot pride! WOOOOOOO!- from a Californian brony
SoCal Brony approved (though I'm currently living in Boston)!
Love Fallout! No matter how hard I tried in it, I always ended up as a Messiah drifting towards the NCR...
Just thinking about Fallout: Equestria makes me depressed...
One of my favorite games, with my favorite pony? Yes. Yes.
Have you experienced Fallout: Equestria?
Not yet. I've heard good things, but with all of the shipping and erotic fan-fiction out there, I'm hesitant to try it.
I could totally see Fluttershy taming a beast like that.
It's not actually based on the actual California state flag- [link]
It's a reference to the video game Fallout where the New California Republic is a faction found in the post apocolypse. Their symbol is a two-headed mutant bear- [link]
I actually got to see the Cali group and their awesome giant flag at Everfree. I had the idea for a Fallout version for sometime already. I guess it's a bit of an obvious joke, but it works.

I'm a member of BONC, by the way. I said hi to you at your booth at Everfree and took your picture, which I think might be in Everfree Northwest's public photo album on Facebook, for sure in my personal photo album from the convention. I think I also might have tweeted the photo @jordanolling.
Oh, and I didn't recognize your name and avatar here. I follow and bother you on Twitter occasionally!
Yep! Connection made. I was wearing a badge I made myself that had both my deviantART icon (, and that has a story behind it), which I use on Wikia, Behind the Voice Actors, and FimFiction as well, and my Facebook/Twitter/Steam icon, which is a flipped and cropped image from S2E16 of Daring Do. I printed both icons out on stiff paper and put it in the plastic sleeve thing I had left over from Animation on Display (Feb. 2012). Everfree Northwest was my second official convention attendance after that.
Hey! I remember meeting you! I don't suppose you're planning to make it to Canterlot Gardens next weekend? That seems like a long way to travel, but it would be great to say hi again!
Nope, I'm not going to Canterlot Gardens. I'm busy with San Francisco State University and living with my family. I'll try to watch streams and videos of the events though! I hope the con as a whole goes well, if you know what I mean.
aw cute.
HA! nicely done.
ruining a good game.

Hey there, there's a simple bug on the author path. The plugin is getting the siteurl instead of home url. In many cases WordPress is installed in a different directory, creating a different siteurl.
You guys should get the other url data, so I have http://www.example.com/author instead of http://www.example.com/wp/author
Probably a quick fix
Thanks for plugin btw

Panagiotis Kone and Manolo Gabbiadini also found the net to lift Stefano Pioli's side to 13th in the table on 21 points, five clear of the relegation zone. Chievo stay in 11th spot.
Kone's third goal of the season, a powerful header from the penalty spot after he lost his marker at a 13th minute corner, gave Bologna the lead their dominance deserved.
Chievo responded well, forcing Gyorgy Garics to head against his own post with 24 minutes gone.
Gilardino, though, doubled the hosts' lead with his first goal in seven games a minute before the break, ending a quick breakaway by clipping Chievo keeper Stefano Sorrentino.
The former Milan striker made it eight goals so far this season in the 59th minute when he pounced on more poor defending at a corner, tapping home from inside the six-yard box.
Gabbiadini completed the rout with a minute to go, powering past defender Marco Andreolli and slotting home.

text: August is almost here and we are closing in on September, which only means one thing here in Florida, archery season. So far this summer, we have encountered everything from daily floods to 100 degree days of relentless heat. Thankfully, these adversities haven't seemed to affect what looks to be, an awesome 2015 deer season. With all this rain, accompanied by plenty of sunshine, our Antler King Food plots look great this year. Currently, we have about 5 acres planted on one of our farms as well as working on smaller food plots to target in the woods once the deer break their summer habits. We have been fortunate enough this year to have of plenty of time to watch the deer this summer and get a good look at our potential hit list bucks.

At the center of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by illusion, a point of pure truth, a point or spark which belongs entirely to God, which is never at our disposal, from which God disposes of our live, which is inaccessable to the fantasies of our own mind or the brutalities of our own will. This little point of nothingness and of absolute poverty is the pure glory of God in us.

Patient Comments: Flu Vaccination - Side Effects
Did you have any side effects from your flu vaccination?
Comment from: Omahagal, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: October 21
I had a flu vaccine on Wednesday, October 15, 2014 (mandatory for work). About 6 hours later, I suddenly became achy all over and had to leave work early. I went home to bed and suffered with terrible aches all evening and night. I felt like even my skin ached. I was in bed for 14 hours, tossing and turning; I was miserable. I went to work on Thursday and seemed a little better however about 4 pm it hit me like a brick wall again. Terrible aches all over, the feeling that my bones ached and even my teeth! I was in bed 10 hours that night, tossing and turning again, have never ever ached that bad. Friday morning, I called my doctor and asked for 800 mg ibuprofen for the aches and he reluctantly gave it to me, acting like he was just humoring me, stating it was a 'dead virus' in the vaccine and that it does not cause aches. I heard the same thing from my supervisor however I know what I know; and this is no coincidence! This is from the vaccine and I will have to truly consider if I want to ever take it again. It's been awful.
Comment from: Lewis, 75 or over Male (Patient) Published: October 21
I got the extra strength flu shot for elders on September 20 (approximately). I had a sore arm for about 3 or 4 days, then a sore throat for about 10 days. Now, I have felt tired and sleepy for the past several days. I hope this goes away soon, as all I want to do now is sleep.
Comment from: bo freakshow zellmer, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: October 21
I received the flu shot yesterday and was woken up out of my sleep with really bad chest pains and muscle pain in my arm and neck. I literally cannot move them. Along with this pain I've got a brutal headache, bad sweating, and bad stomach pain to where I can't stand up straight. My eyes are swollen and my ears hurt and I itch all over. I'll never get another flu shot, this is horrible and it is only day 2.
Comment from: Freda, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: October 21
I had the flu shot for the 1st time a week ago, it started off with my entire body being sore, breast, chest, arms, and legs, and then I ran a fever and broke out in hives for 2 days. After that subsided, my face continued to itch, eyes and cheeks, until I scratched so much that I broke the skin. I will never take the flu shot again, hopefully this will all go away and my skin will clear up.
Comment from: Momel, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: October 16
I got senior flu shot on Thursday October 10, 2014. By that evening I had bad headache, extremely warm skin to the touch, no appetite, shivering, and very sore arm. I could hardly sleep that night, but by next morning was much better and totally fine by 24 hours later. I never had any reaction to the regular flu shot and will not take senior again. Also, the shot burned a great deal when injected. I looked up senior shot and it is 4x as strong as regular; too much for me.
Comment from: Hemant, 75 or over Male (Caregiver) Published: October 15
I took flu shots in the years 1994, 1995, and 1996 and each time on the 7th day from the respective dates I was laid up with severe fever, body aches and sore throat for a week followed by at least a week of weakness. So I decided to stop taking shots and at 82 now I am quite healthy taking regular exercise and watching my life style.
Comment from: Ka, 45-54 Female (Caregiver) Published: October 14
I got my flu shot on Friday afternoon. I have had a headache since Friday night; stiff and aching neck and all of my joints hurt. I have low grade fever and my sinuses are tender/swollen. I have also been sneezing off and on all day today (Sunday) and my throat is itchy and sore. I do have allergies, but this isn't usually the time of year I have symptoms. As I have to have the flu shot (working in the health care field it's required) I don't have much choice but to get the vaccine. Ugh. Enough said.
Comment from: pmd, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: October 10
I took my flu shot a week ago and have been experiencing muscle spasms in my arm, pain radiating from the neck and shoulder down to the arm. I did not experience any pain during the injection.

Babies Refusing to Make Eye Contact With President Obama
This is how you know a presidency is on the wrong track.
Conservatives despise him. Many liberals remain stubbornly unimpressed. He gets no credit when he does something right, and faces new, often manufactured controversies seemingly every day. And it's all adding up, because now, even babies sweet, lovable, barely sentient babies have turned on President Obama, the man with whom they once invested so much hope. Though he tries time and again to connect with these impressionable young citizens, it is all in vain, for his overtures are met only with cold shoulders. Tiny, cold shoulders.

This word was invented by English comedian Sacha Baron Cohen for his character Ali G in "Da Ali G Show". Since Sacha is Israeli, he pulled from the Hebrew language and urban slang to create Booyakasha. First, the very popular Hebrew phrase "Sheket B'Vakasha!" which means "Please be quiet!". Second, the slang term booya, which is a cry of victory to embarrass the defeated party (see also in your face). Booyakasha was supposed to sound Jamaican or African. It means in context "Be quiet because I am right and you are wrong! I win! Feel embarrassed about it!"
"Her eyes were green, just like I said they were! Booyakasha!"

Actually it is a Jamaican patois approximation of the sound of a gunshot- you hold two fingers in the air and shout "BOOYAKASHA, BOO- BOO- BOOYAKASHA"
Rudy tink he a badman, we have to go bust him- BOOYAKASHA!
by the Ingster July 06, 2004
Booyakasha comes from the Irish word "buíochas" (pronounced bwee ah kuss) which mean "glory to" "or praise be" as in "buíochas le Dia" which means "thanks be to god". Oliver Cromwell sent 1000s of Irish to the plantations in Jamaica, and a lot of Irish (or Gaelic as non Irish people know it) words made it in to Jamaican patois. Another example is "Irie" from the Irish verb "Eirigh" (pronounced "Ire - ee") meaning to get up.
Booyakasha! you know it!
by Michaelkelly Kelly November 28, 2007
Don't know what it means but Ali G didn't make it up. Rapper KRS-One shouts it out at the beginning of "Keep Their Heads Ringin'" by Dr. Dre. In 1995. Before Ali G. Probably Jamaican roots then...

2016 State of the Valley
More than 1,200 people packed the San Jose McEnery Convention Center February 12, 2016 for Joint Venture's annual State of the Valley conference, where they heard an update on the region's economy, keynote remarks by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Rep. George Miller, former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros, United States Patent and Trademark Office Director Michelle Lee and NAUTO co-founder and Stanford professor Stefan Heck of the Precourt Center for Energy Efficiency. The audience also heard a lively debate by a distinguished panel of auto industry executives and environmental experts arguing the future of the combustion engine. The Packard Award went to Code for America founder Jennifer Pahlka, an exhibition hall showcased a dozen nonprofit organizations and local school bands provided musical entertainment.
Briefing on the 2016 Silicon Valley Index
Joint Venture CEO Russell Hancock explored the data in the 2016 Silicon Valley Index, which shows that the regional economy is continuing its powerful trend upwards. However, the explosive increases in jobs and population are overwhelming transit systems and roadways and keeping affordable homes out of reach for many.
The comprehensive yearly analysis of the economic strength and overall vitality of Silicon Valley shows 134,000 new Bay Area jobs created between mid-2014 and mid-2015, average annual earnings up to $122,000, $24.5 billion in venture capital investments in 2015, 19,000 new patent registrations in 2014 and more than 23 million square feet of new development approvals over the past two years.
At the same time, widening income inequality persists, the median sale price for a home is up six percent to $830,000, rental rates are up eight percent, and average commute times rose to 27 minutes.
Here is Joint Venture President and CEO Russell Hancock's report on the 2016 Index, produced by the Silicon Valley Institute of Regional Studies, an arm of Joint Venture.
