A teenager who accidentally killed his best friend in January while messing with a shotgun was sentenced to six to 12 months in prison at the Philadelphia Criminal Justice Center today.
"I'm so sorry," said Hector Echevarria, 19, who pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in April. "I would never do this to Bill. That was my brother. I'm so sorry."
As members of his family broke down in loud sobs, Echevarria was led away into lock-up after being sentenced.
Judge Benjamin Lerner sentenced Echevarria to serve the prison term on work release and ordered that the Philadelphia Prison System seek to allow Echevarria to continue his study of auto-body repair and painting at a technical school as part of the work release.
Lerner also sentenced Echevarria to three years post-release probation and to serve 150 hours of community service in an area where he could speak to other young people about the danger of firearms.
Echevarria never denied his guilt in the shooting death of Billy Hopkins, 18, on January 21 and has been free on bail while criminal charges were pending.. He was showing Hopkins the shotgun when he accidentally fired it at him.
"I have no doubt this was an accident," Lerner said before handing down sentence. "The last thing Hector wanted was for any harm to come to Billy."
Echevarria was holding a shotgun on Jan. 21 inside his Olney home near the intersection of Mascher Street and Tabor Avenue, which the two teenagers were examining when the gun went off, striking Hopkins in the chest. Hopkins was pronounced dead shortly afterwards.
Prosecutor Richard Sax did not seek a specific sentence and left that to Lerner's discretion.
"He had cooperated and confessed immediately. He waived all hearings to which he was entitled, and I feel he has shown appropriate amount of remorse since the first time I laid eyes on him," Sax said.
However, Echevarria previously stated in an interview with the Daily News that he emptied all the shells from the shotgun onto a bed before showing it to Hopkins and pointing it towards his friend.
Sax introduced police records prior to the sentencing that found three shells were found on the bed, but three shells were still inside the gun after it discharged.

Dancing tiger from Schreiner's Catalog

Do you have an old Schreiner's catalog? It is pictured in the
1961 catalog.
I hope that you find it. Not even close to Jesse Song or Everything
Plus for the pink one. I think that the form is all wrong on the
other too. I will see if we have pictures on the web.
Thank you, also, Bonnie. Â
I'll make sure to mention the names of those others,
but due to the lack of plicata markings in the falls
centers, I do not think Carnival Song is eligible. The
stalk is still in bloom on the table, and none of the
flowers show that center line.Â
Dancing Tiger, huh? ÂThat would be fun to try and ID
apart from Belvi Queen! ÂHa! ÂI can't find a modern photo
of it anywhere on the web right now. Â
Yes, oh the joys of hunting. ÂEventually, I give up.
ÂBut not without trying!

Hi Adam,
Also check an old historic by the name of Dancing
Tiger. We use to grow it and it looked alot like
the yellow brown tone one. I first thought of
Change of Pace but also Carnival Song and also
check out Larry Lauer's pick plicata that he has.
ÂI do not think that it is Change of Pace or
Carnival Song because of the beard color on your
mystery iris.
Happy Hunting Adam
Bonnie in Ca.
Isn't that something?! ÂTiming is so quirky!
Thanks for the recommendation... I'll check
with the member to see if they match his

|Edward VI's Devise for the Succession
What I am loving subjects, ye know your Queen, to whom, at my coronation, ye promised allegiance and obedience, I was then wedded to the realm, and to the laws of the same, the spousal ring whereof I wear here on my finger, and it never has and never shall be left off.
I cannot tell how naturally a mother loveth her children, for I never had any, but if the subjects may be loved as a mother doth her child, then assure yourselves that I, your sovereign lady and your Queen, do earnestly love and favour you. I cannot but think you love me in return; and thus, bound in concord, we shall be able, I doubt not, to give these rebels a speedy overthrow.
I am neither so desirous of wedding, nor so precisely wedded to my will, that I needs must have a husband. Hitherto I have lived a virgin, and I doubt not, with God's grace, to live still. But if, as my ancestors have done, it might please God that I should leave you a successor to be your governor, I trust you would rejoice thereat; also, I know it would be to your comfort.

'There will the Devil meet me, like an old cuckold, with horns on his head.'
|The Contented Cuckold 1673 - British Museum
'at Horn Fair, a party of humorists of both sexes (query, of either sex) cornuted in all the variety of bull-feather fashion, after perambulating round Cuckold's Point, startled the little quiet village of Charlton on St. Luke's Day, shouting their emulation, and blowing voluntaries on rams' horns, in honour of their patron saint.'In this 18th century etching from the British Museum below, we can see 'a riotous scene in a country village where a shrewish wife and hen-pecked husband are mocked by their neighbours in procession. The couple ride on one horse, the man facing the tail, preceded by another man on horseback who throws grain from a pannier to the crowd. Further to the right, cuckold's horns in the form of a stag's head, a ram's head and a cow's head are held aloft, the latter attached to a woman's shift, and "rough music" is played on pots and pans. In the background, is a river and a similar procession takes place on the far bank.
|Skimmington-Triumph, Or the Humours of Horn Fair
'Charleton, a village famous, or rather infamous for the yearly collected rabble of mad-people, at Horn-Fair; the rudeness of which I cannot but think, is such as ought to be suppressed, and indeed in a civiliz'd well govern'd nation, it may well be said to be unsufferable. The mob indeed at that time take all kinds of liberties, and the women are especially impudent for that day; as if it was a day that justify'd the giving themselves a loose to all manner of indecency and immodesty, without any reproach, or without suffering the censure which such behaviour would deserve at another time.'Every visitor to the fair wore a pair of horns, or carried one, and horns were tied above the gate, around the fences and over the stalls. Even the gingerbread men for sale had horns. The fair was a great excuse for licentiousness in all forms and this no doubt led to its great popularity.
'And when they reach Cuckold's Point they make a gallant show.Cuckold's Point also features in the play Eastward Ho by Ben Jonson. This scene epitomises the idea of putting up cuckold's horns to let a man know his wife was being unfaithful.
Their wives bid the Musick play Cuckolds All In A Row.'
Enter SLITGUT with a pair of ox-horns, discovering Cuckold's Haven.Censure and Closure of the Horn Fair
SLIT: All hail, fair haven of married men only! for there are none but married men cuckolds. For my part, I presume not to arrive here but in my master's behalf, a poor butcher of Eastcheap, who sends me to set up, in honor of Saint Luke, these necessary ensigns of his homage. And up I got this morning, thus early, to get up to the top of this famous tree, that is all fruit and no leaves, to advance this crest of my master's occupation.'

Classical music is an acquired taste. I have not quite recovered from the extraordinary experience of hearing a live performance of a 100-year-old concerto at the Royal Festival Hall last week, but I know that the notion that classical music can be as exhilarating in its own way as a Rolling Stones revival sounds off-beam to most of the population.
That is understandable. I grew up in a home where there was no classical music until late on. In my late teens, I could cope with a five-minute snatch of a popular classic, but anything as long as a concerto or a symphony came over as interminable sound without rhythm or beat, and too many violins.
I found my way into the classics by seeing a very violent film called A Clockwork Orange, in which torture scenes were depicted to a very lively soundtrack, said to be part of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. I was intrigued enough to buy myself a record of the Ninth with money from my 21st birthday, but still couldn't hear it properly, because hearing classical music is skill that has to be learnt.
Then I saw a TV programme which had a shot of a man walking up a steep hill to another interesting piece, which I thought I recognised. It was the opening of the part of the choral section of the Ninth. Once you have cracked one symphony or concerto, the next comes more easily.
At the Royal Festival Hall, a slender, stooping youth shambled on stage to adjust the piano seat to the right height. Suddenly, the music was under way, and the youth's spidery arms were flying hither and thither across the keyboard, his fingers sometimes moving so fast that they seemed to produce sound by merely touching the surface of the keys.
Then he was hitting the keys so hard that he jumped out of his seat. From his long demented assault on a piano came a beautiful stream of sound.
At the start of the concert, we had noticed a woman dressed in purple fur and wondered whether she was Russian, or a Brit dressed like a Russian. She reappeared after the interval followed by a bashful adolescent who looked as if his mother had dragged him out for the evening.
It was the prodigiously talented performer who had just held us in thrall. His name is Daniil Trifonov; he is 21, and all being well, he will be at the top of his profession for the next 50 years.
It is the shame that the class snobbery that surrounds classical performances conceals how wild and young this sort of music is.

Slow PunctureLast updated at 12:01AM, March 26 2016
The government is neglecting its promises to cyclists
Italy's insurance industry has praised The Times safe cycling campaign, saying it offers a model for Italy too, where there are twice the number of deaths.
The head of the ANIA Foundation for Road Traffic Safety, established by the country's insurance firms, issued a statement pledging his support for The Times' move.
"Making people aware of road safety through the media is fundamental for reducing the number and gravity of accidents. The campaign launched by The Times for the protection of cyclists in Great Britain should be an example for all of how public institutions, private associations and the media should work together to combat what is the greatest tragedy of our country — road accidents," said Umberto Guidoni, the foundation's secretary-general.
"If a big newspaper like The Times has taken a position like this, starting a real battle for respect of the rules of the road, it's desirable that in our country there should be a similarly strong media campaign."
Mr Guidoni said Italy had 11 million bicycles and came third in Europe in the number of cyclists killed, behind only Germany, with 462, and Poland, with 280.
"The protection of the weakest road users is a common problem throughout the world. Cyclists and pedestrians are the categories most at risk of being run over. In 10 years 1,275 cyclists have been killed on British streets and, according to European statistics, there were 104 victims in 2010 in accidents involving bicyles," he said.
"In Italy, the situation is even worse: In 2010 263 cyclists died (6 per cent of the total deaths); and 2,556 died over the course of the last decade.
"That is more than double the number recorded in Britain. This shows our country must still do much in terms of prevention, as well as communication and awareness."
The ANIA Foundation is pushing for the introduction of a crime of vehicular homicide in Italy in cases where the driver is in an altered psychological state or driving well over the speed limit.
"The position taken by the ANIA Foundation and other institutions on the need to establish the crime of vehicular homicide in some cases has begun to produce its first results," he said. "A man who killed a 24-year-old woman while driving under the influence of drugs has been sentenced by the appeal court in Milan to 14 years for voluntary manslaughter. The sentence overturned the trial court's sentence of four years for culpable manslaughter. This is only a first step."

Wigan Still Talking to Rodallega
Roberto Martinez wants to focus on improving Wigan Athletic's results after confirming talks with Hugo Rodallega regarding a new contract are ongoing.
- Related Content
Rodallega's current deal expires at the end of the season and he has been linked with Premier League rivals Arsenal, Aston Villa, Everton and Liverpool.
The Colombian has recently returned to fitness after a knee injury and Martinez has outlined the striker's importance to the Wigan side.
However, following a run of six successive defeats in all competitions, Martinez wants the priority to be ending that disappointing sequence.
"We're still talking," said the Latics boss regarding the negotiations with Rodallega.
"He's very important to us and he's still developing as a young man.
"We've got a very good relationship with his agent, who is in Colombia, so it's sometimes difficult to have continuity in our talks.
"We all know he's got the potential to play at any club in world football so we need to enjoy him while he's with us.
"But it's important that we focus on getting a positive result on the pitch and then all of the individual results will be resolved."
Martinez is happy to have Rodallega back at his disposal for Saturday's game at Newcastle United after admitting Magpies striker Demba Ba was out of his reach in the summer.
He added: "Ba was out of our price range. He was in Marks and Spencer and I normally shop on the internet.
"But for Hugo to come back so quickly is just a real example of how professional he is. It's been a real boost to the squad."

A pair of major quarterback transactions have occurred in recent days: the first, of course, was a three-year contract extension for Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Earlier today, sources confirmed to ESPN that the Chiefs had acquired Alex Smith from the 49ers in exchange for a pair of draft picks.
We know the implications of Brady's deal for the Patriots: It effectively makes him a Patriot for life, while also netting the team $15 million in cap space over the next two years.
As ESPN's NFL Insider Adam Schefter points out, Brady's new cap number for 2013 of $13.8 million also potentially affects Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, who may receive the exclusive rights franchise tag from Baltimore. That tag entitles him to a one-year deal worth the average of the top five salary-cap numbers among players at his position. Brady's cap number dropped from first to ninth ($21.8 million to $13.8 million), and the exclusive rights franchise tag's value dropped by $800,000.
The Smith deal may have something of an indirect impact on the Patriots, according to ESPN.com's Matt Williamson, who opines that backup Ryan Mallett is one of three names that could surface on the quarterback trade market (Insider content) now that Smith is unavailable.
If the Patriots are interested in trading the former third-round pick, his value could go up if other quarterbacks become unavailable and teams grow more desperate to find a potential starter. He's highly regarded by the Patriots brass, and the team doesn't have a ready-made backup if Mallett were to be traded. However, Williamson also posits that Matt Cassel, who Schefter reports is expected to be released by the Chiefs, could be a reasonable possibility to consider if Mallett were gone.
There are a handful of teams still looking to upgrade their quarterback position, and this year's draft is considered thin on franchise-type players at the most important position on the field. Mallett's name is one that continues to pop up in speculation, however it remains unclear if the Patriots would be inclined to trade him.

Extra! Man Accused of Shaping Baby's Head!"), but just good, old-fashioned, wholesome, by-God-all-American weird. Thank God we have Squelch and his newest pet project: a concert in which a bunch of high school kids dressed like zombies sat around listening to rockabilly music. Truly, this is how the healing will begin.
We missed Squelch's performance—we were smearing fake blood all over our face at home, and it had to be just perfect before we'd go out—and we feel far the poorer for it. He's got a new band called the Oilpans that we're scared of already. ("I think he should get up there and croon more," remarked Oilpans guitarist Dano. What did he do? we asked. "Something with pomegranates," he replied—oh, Squelch, don't ever change!) But we did catch another delightfully painful set by Thee Makeout Party (full disclosure: we'd tell you we were in bands with some of these kids, but since we practice together about as frequently as Dick Cheney can achieve erection, we don't feel it's relevant), Orange County's answer to a question Brit garage overlord Billy Childish might ask if you punched him repeatedly in the teeth and left him bloody and burbling in the gutter.
Thee Makeout Party always delivers an experience. Sometimes they suck louder than two-for-one-day at the lipo clinic; sometimes they turn teenage fucked-up-ed-ness into something appallingly amazing. This time they did both—decide for yourself if that's progress or regress. "Can't Leave the House" was rollicking Sonics-style schizo stomp that steamrollered us stupid, but then they popped at the seams and crash-dived into a wobbly sludge-jam take on their title theme, "Makeout Party." (Lyrics reprinted in their entirety for your edification: "We're, uh, gonna have, uh, a makeout party, uh, tonight, uh!") We've heard their demo, and it was actually damn decent—too bad you won't hear it since a certain someone accidentally, um, pissed all over it, rendering further mix-down impossible, not to mention rather pungent—but if you drove your car as carefully as they play live, the police would shoot you on sight. But that's what makes them magic in the first place, isn't it?

Follow-uppers Johnny's Gang (a passel of clean-cut rockabilly kids) had guitar chops you'd buy at Ikea—sophisticated, elegant, complex and oh-so-clean—and delivered their own warm-and-fuzzy take on the OC roots-punk sound (they covered, among others, the Ramones, Chuck Berry and, oddly, the Pixies, which they hit note for note). Hey, guys, if you don't listen to the Real Kids yet, you should—trust a rock-critic scumbag and pursue that shit, and we'll love you for it. It made us miss our own long-withered youth; we used to have this kind of scruffy charm, but we pissed it all away on ironic self-deprecation and never bothered to take guitar lessons.
Have this band play your house next time your parents go out of town: if you're a high school kid with passable taste in music and Thee Makeout Party is too challenging for your pastels-and-earthtones sensibilities, you might find a little joy with these boys. Yeah, they played too long, but they were basically good, clean fun. And their No. 1 fan had nuts enough to stand up in front of a room of obediently seated high school zombies and shake his bootie like there was no tomorrow. We'd say his enthusiasm was infectious, but there's a little too much infectiousness going around these days, at least in the OC Weekly mailroom (and have you heard about the strange pustules on our wrist?). So instead, we'll say they were a good bunch of kids who could push for better than good, maybe, if they keep practicing their scales and go buy something reissued by Norton Records. (Look it up, boys; look it up.)
And that finished off Anaheim's inaugural zombie party. Squelch made sure to grab the mic as the zombies shuffled home (gotta meet their zombie curfews, else their zombie parents might get zombie pissed), saying things like, "We hope to host more zombie events in the future," which is just an awesome thing to say. We'll stock up on fake blood, just in case. Punk might be dead, but that's the whole point.

GAO's ongoing work indicates that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has made progress over the past 5 years in a number of key acquisition management areas, but it faces significant risks in some of its major projects. On the positive side, the cost and schedule performance of NASA's portfolio of major projects in development has improved and most current projects are adheri...
GPS: Actions Needed to Address Ground System Development Problems and User Equipment Production Readiness
GAO-15-657: Published: Sep 9, 2015. Publicly Released: Sep 9, 2015.
The Air Force has experienced significant difficulties developing the Global Positioning System (GPS) next generation operational control system (OCX) and consistently overstated progress to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) compared to advisory independent assessments it received. It needs $1.1 billion and 4 years more than planned to deliver OCX due to poor acquisition decisions and a...
Space Launch System: Management Tools Should Better Track to Cost and Schedule Commitments to Adequately Monitor Increasing Risk
GAO-15-596: Published: Jul 16, 2015. Publicly Released: Jul 16, 2015.
The cost and schedule estimates for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Space Launch System (SLS) program substantially complied with five of six relevant best practices, but could not be deemed fully reliable�because they only partially met the sixth best practice—credibility.�While an independent NASA office reviewed the estimate developed by the program and as a result...
Space Acquisitions: Space Based Infrared System Could Benefit from Technology Insertion Planning
GAO-15-366: Published: Apr 3, 2015. Publicly Released: Apr 3, 2015.
The Air Force assessed options for replacing older technologies with newer ones—called technology insertion—in the Space Based Infrared System (SBIRS) geosynchronous earth orbit (GEO) satellites 5 and 6. However, the assessment was limited in the number of options it could practically consider because of timing and minimal early investment in technology planning. The Air Force assessed the fea...
Environmental Satellites: Improvements Needed in NOAA's Mitigation Strategies as It Prepares for Potential Satellite Coverage Gaps
GAO-15-386T: Published: Feb 12, 2015. Publicly Released: Feb 12, 2015.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) $11.3 billion Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) program has recently completed significant development activities and remains within its cost and schedule baselines; however, recent cost growth on key components is likely unsustainable, and schedule delays could increase the potential for a near-term satellite data gap. In addition, wh...
NASA: Human Space Exploration Programs Face Challenges
GAO-15-248T: Published: Dec 10, 2014. Publicly Released: Dec 10, 2014.

For example, in July 2014, GAO found that NASA had not matched resources to requirements for the SLS program and wa...
DOD Space Systems: Additional Knowledge Would Better Support Decisions about Disaggregating Large Satellites
GAO-15-7: Published: Oct 30, 2014. Publicly Released: Oct 30, 2014.
It is not yet known whether and to what degree disaggregation can help the Department of Defense (DOD) reduce acquisition costs and increase the resilience of its satellite systems. Experts GAO spoke with identified an array of benefits and limitations. For example, acquiring smaller, less complex satellites may require less time and effort to develop and produce. On the other hand, a larger numbe...

Looking Back on Laura
Strange by even film noir standards, Otto Preminger's 1944 Laura, which is showing in a new 35mm print at Film Forum, starts out with a voiceover narration delivered from beyond the grave by hornet queen Waldo Lydecker (Clifton Webb):) "I will never forget the weekend Laura died." A gossip columnist who likes to write while soaking in the tub, regal Waldo is here, queer, and completely unabashed by the manly police detective (Dana Andrews) who barges into his china-shop apartment on a mission to investigate Laura's murder.
Laura's first half is largely devoted to annotated flashbacks detailing Waldo's perverse cultivation of the beautiful young advertising executive (a very limited Gene Tierney), a sterile romance played out in an invented Manhattan inhabited by a gaggle of decadent swells. ("Laura, dear, I simply can't stand these morons any longer," Waldo whines imperiously at one Park Avenue soiree. "If you don't come with me this instant, I'm afraid I shall just run amok!") Almost everyone Laura meets becomes a legitimate suspect in her murder, notably her fiancé, a drawling gigolo (Vincent Price), scarcely less epicene than Waldo, and his jealous patroness (Judith Anderson), but the movie's impassive subject—a mannequin given to wearing the haute-couture equivalent of a Dutch milkmaid's cap—is also the universal object of desire.
None of the characters, Price would later recall, are exactly "normal." Preminger thought Laura was a "whore," and in his book on the director, Foster Hirsch notes that as "the pawn in a sexual competition between two 'gay' men," she may be harboring her own erotic "surprises." At any rate, the cop falls hard for her, or at least her portrait, as he moons around her empty apartment in a necrophiliac trance, rifling drawers, fondling knickknacks, and sniffing perfume. Then, having taken up residence there, he falls asleep and . . .
Directed by Otto Preminger
A Criterion release of a 20th Century Fox film
December 30 through January 5, Film Forum
Elevated by studio boss Darryl Zanuck from "B" picture status, Laura opened at the Roxy, became a critical and popular hit, was nominated for five Oscars (winning for cinematography), and launched Preminger's directorial career. Still, alternately sprightly and turgid, if abetted by its haunting, ubiquitous score, it's far from a great movie—most beloved by second-generation surrealists who appreciate it for its time-liquidating dream narrative of l'amour fou. See that movie if you can; for me, Laura is a flavorsome but flawed anticipation of two far more delirious psychosexual cine-obsessions: Vertigo and Blue Velvet.

Submissions to ILR Online
The University of Illinois Law Review Online (ILR Online) publishes shorter, more timely scholarly pieces accessible for a broader audience than our print publication. We strive to publish relevant, topical, and thought-provoking short essays, commentaries, responses to articles, and book reviews. ILR Online prefers to publish pieces between 2,000 and 5,000 words, but will accept pieces containing up to 7,000 words, including citations.

Light Edit Policy
The Law Review follows a light edit policy. After an article is accepted, we discuss the scope of editorial input that the author desires. Even if an author does not request a light edit, our editors presume that the author's diction and syntax have been carefully chosen. Accordingly, we make stylistic changes only when such changes are strictly necessary to enhance clarity or grace. This policy reflects our belief that legal scholarship should express its author's voice, not ours.
Citation and Style Guidelines
Manuscripts should conform to the Chicago Manual of Style (16th edition) and to The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (20th edition).

After Sundown Redemption
"Stouthearted stood that war prince
With his shield upraised,
Waited in his war-gear.
The dragon coiled together,
Went forth burning,
Gliding toward his fate.
From Beowulf
Deaths hand reached out to her. It was so close Sabrina Reyes could almost feel it squeezing the last breath from her body. It couldn't end this way, could it? After everything she had endured. After all the battles she fought and still had to fight, it just couldn't. She had too much to do, too much to learn, and too much to show the world about herself and her kind.
Due to the late hour, she and her attacker stood facing each other in the middle of an almost empty Arizona State University campus parking lot. They were engaged in some sort of macabre dance. His hands were wrapped tightly around her neck, while she jerked wildly and clawed desperately at his wrists. The world closed in around her and her knees started to give way. She fought the sense of falling at first, struggling to stand, then realized her mistake.
Energy suddenly filled her, and adrenaline pumped through her body as she realized this was her last chance for survival. Summoning the strength that was so familiar to her, she prepared herself. Her body quivered with the effort it took to control the power filling her. It was always like this, so overwhelming and somewhat scary, but at the same time exhilarating and freeing.
That was all suddenly shut off the minute her attacker tightened his hold on her neck and spoke.
"You power is my power, your will is mine."
His dark words were simple enough, yet in combination with his tightened grip on her air supply, they completely overpowered her. The energy that had filled her was suddenly leashed and that part of her that yearned to get free was caged.
What the hell was happening? Sabrina panicked. If she couldn't summon her power, if she couldn't use that, what would she do?

BRICs and beyond: Hershey hopes for sweeter future in India
Hershey faces entrenched competitors in India, including Kraft Foods and Perfetti van Melle
Hershey's passage into India has proved anything but smooth but clearly the US confectionery giant is a believer in perseverance.
The likes of Kraft Foods, Perfetti van Melle and Nestle may have developed strong positions in India's confectionery markets but Hershey, after a troubled five years in the market, believes it can thrive by going solo in what is forecast to remain a fast-growing sector.
Hershey has taken full control of its Indian venture after five years working with local conglomerate Godrej. The Godrej Hershey business has found the going tough despite booming confectionery consumption in India. The loss-making venture generated just US$80m in sales in 2011 (Hershey says the market as a whole is worth $2bn) and analysts at Euromonitor claim the venture's major brands have seen their market share sink in the five years of the business.
However, Hershey, which wants to boost its sales outside the US, which accounts for the bulk of its revenue and is eyeing generating $1bn in revenue in overseas markets by the end of 2015. It has turned to the emerging markets of Brazil, China, Mexico and India and, despite its challenges in the latter market, thinks it can prosper with the new Hershey India subsidiary.
"India is a rapidly growing market and one we believe will help Hershey achieve its global growth objectives," a spokesperson tells just-food. "In 2011, estimated retail sales in India for sugar and chocolate was nearly $2bn – with a compound annual growth rate of more than 20%. China and India will account for close to 50% of the world's middle class population by 2013. This middle class is the sweet spot for our portfolio. In India, the confectionery category is still forming which provides us an opportunity to shape and drive the category, establishing ourselves as a leader."
Kraft Foods leads India's confectionery market thanks to its 2010 acquisition of Cadbury. According to Euromonitor, it accounts for 33% of sales. However, Perfetti van Melle and Nestle have carved out strong positions in the sector, while Ferrero has enjoyed success in the chocolate segment.
Some analysts agree that, despite the entrenched competition, the market offers enough growth for Hershey to tap into. "The market, over the 2012 to 2017 forecast period, is going to expand by $1.9bn in value terms, so even if Hershey captures a small proportion of the absolute value, it's going to be a very good addition to its revenue," Euromonitor analyst Ildiko Szalai tells just-food.
In India, Kaushik Madhavan, a partner at FMCG and retail consultants A.T. Kearney insists consumption remains low but will grow rapidly as incomes increase and more people move to urban centres.
"India is a very under-penetrated chocolate market. If you look at per capita consumption, India would be among the lowest consumers of chocolate and chocolate-based products. Unlike in China, where I understand the Chinese are not fond of chocolate, in India, chocolate is a category that people like and it is considered a premium indulgence product," Madhavan says. "As disposable incomes have grown, lifestyles have moved towards more urban-centric living and awareness of international products is triggering a lot of growth in consumption in these categories."
He adds: "All the players that have a presence in the chocolate market are doing well. The overall market is growing pretty rapidly. It's not a mature market where you are taking on entrenched companies. India is absolutely a growth market in this category. It's a growth market for all categories but the size is so small and growth is much larger in confectionery."
That said, Hershey is starting with a business that has struggled. Sales of US$80m hardly makes a dent in a market worth $2bn. Hershey has so far not managed to launch any of its international brands in India. The only product on sale in the country with the US company's brand name so far has been Hershey Chocolate Syrup.
At Euromonitor, Szalai says all four of the venture's brands lost market share between 2007 and 2012. "Each of the brands have seen very strong market value share erosion since 2007," she says.
Maha Lacto toffees accounted for 2.2% of India's confectionery sales by value in 2007, Szalai says. By 2012, that fell to 0.9%. Sugar confectionery brand Nutrine also had a market share of 2.2% five years ago. Now, it languishes at 0.7%.
Szalai says the venture managed to increase the sales of both brands but was outpaced by the market. "The revenue of these confectionery brands grew but the market way outperformed them," she says.
Hershey, for the meantime, says it will continue with the current brands in the portfolio but admits it sees an opportunity in India for its international products.
"At this time we will continue with our current product portfolio including Nutrine, Maha Lacto, Jumpin and Sofit, as well as Hershey's Syrup. We see tremendous opportunity for our global brands in India and are evaluating our portfolio as part of the strategic planning process," the spokesperson says. However, she adds: "We do not have anything additional to announce at this time."

Pickens: Wind turbines unlikely off California coast
Billionaire T. Boone Pickens says California is leading the nation in the push for alternative energy.
"You are the model for the United States," the Texas oil man told the Orange County Register news staff Tuesday.
But Pickens, who is traveling around the country promoting his plan for weaning the country off foreign oil, says a centerpiece of his alternative fuel campaign - wind power - would be unlikely off the Southern California coast.
Pickens, visiting Orange County as part of a nationwide tour, says opposition to large-scale wind turbines off the coast probably would be fierce, in part because of historical opposition to offshore drilling.
"I have a feeling people are not going to want the wind here," Pickens said. "But if they do, do it. I'm for everything that's American."
Such an investment in California is not on his list, he said.
"I wouldn't be interested in doing it," he said. "It's too expensive."
For the country as a whole, Pickens advocates a combination of wind power and natural gas to help end the country's dependence on foreign oil. The United States, he says, imports nearly 70 percent of its oil, much of it from hostile nations.
By creating a corridor devoted to wind energy in the central United States, he said, more of the nation's natural gas production could be freed up for use as transportation fuel.
But he also said his advocacy of the plan is not motivated by his desire to make money with his Seal Beach company, Clean Energy Fuels, the nation's largest provider of natural gas for transportation fleets.
Pickens is spending $58 million on his tour to promote his plan; he has appeared on television and testified before a U.S. Senate committee, as well as running a series of television commercials.
Wind turbines in the windy Midwest could generate enough electricity to replace 22 percent of the electricity the nation produces with natural gas, he says. The gas could then be pumped into transportation fuel - mainly fleets, not passenger cars.
The state Air Resources Board as well as the South Coast Air Quality Management District both have taken steps to encourage use of alternative fuels. State legislation in 2006 and 2007 created grant and incentive programs administered by the air board to develop a variety of alternative fuels. Another state standard will increase the ethanol content of gasoline to 10 percent by about 2010.

Canterbury's quake dogs
New book tells stories of dogs affected by quakesABBIE NAPIER
Relevant offers
Christchurch Earthquake 2011
After months sharing stories with Canterbury dog owners, Laura Sessions and photographer Craig Bullock have released Quake Dogs. The book tells the story of more than 80 dogs affected in some way by the earthquakes.
Some stories will break your heart and some are uplifting, but all demonstrate why dogs remain man's best friend. Abbie Napier shares three standout stories.
- Oscar passed away a few weeks ago in the back of the van he most loved to ride along in. Owner and rescuer Ian Spellerberg held Oscar's head as the vet put a painless end to his suffering. He wrapped him in his favourite blankets and dug the grave himself. Oscar now lies under the trees at the bottom of the yard, a little plaque to mark his final resting place.
Oscar's owner Ian doesn't know a lot about Oscar's life in the years before he was rescued. When they met, the golden retriever was eating rags and pieces of cardboard in a dirty yard, his ribs poking through his matted coat.
He had been abandoned at least twice, after both the September 2010 and February 2011 quakes.
Ian is an instructor at the Selwyn Dog Training Club. Sadly, each earthquake prompted a flood of requests for the club to rehome abandoned dogs.
When Ian got a call about a golden retriever needing help, he went down to the property himself.
"He was just such a mix of wanting to be friendly, but also unsure of humans."
There were a handful of dogs in the same yard, but Oscar hung back, nervous.
"He was not in a good state, " Ian said. "I just love dogs so much, and we seemed to get along straight away. There was a bond there already. I just couldn't walk away."
Perhaps sensing Ian would be the one to finally offer him a loving home, Oscar was happy to scramble into the back of Ian's van with his dogs, Bess and Tinker.
Grossly underweight, Oscar took a long time to mend. His back legs had been badly damaged, possibly by long periods spent in confinement.
Ian and wife Myfanwy fed him up and he became a member of the family for two years.
Unfortunately, despite all their efforts, Oscar's health began to deteriorate.
While he was healthy in most ways, his back legs became more of an issue and often gave way without warning. At times, he was unable to lift himself up, and began to soil himself in his kennel.
"One day in the winter, he was lying in front of the logburner. He was trying to get up, desperately trying to get up but he couldn't move his legs.
"We felt we couldn't do anything more for him, and we had to make that awful decision."
Oscar could not have handled the kind of operation needed. Years of neglect had taken their toll.
"On his last journey we went out together and left the other dogs at home. He just loved going for outings in the van, loved it.
"He was just lying in the back of the van and it all happened very peacefully, in the place he loved so much.
"He was just a gentle dog."
Ian made sure Oscar passed away with the dignity he had missed for much of his life, a treasured member of the family.
Poppy's disappearance after the February 2011 earthquake was hell for her owners.
Poppy fled and owners Katrina and Richard put up posters, and scoured the neighbourhood.
On day three, a neighbour heard on the radio a rottweiler had been found.
The radio station put Katrina and Richard in touch with Poppy's rescuer - none other than city councillor Sue Wells.
Sue had found Poppy the day of the earthquake in Cashel St, and had set her up in a life of luxury while she tried to find her owner.
When Katrina heard where Poppy had been found, she couldn't believe it.
Before the quake, Richard had been picking up Katrina every day after work. They always met on the Cashel/Fitzgerald corner and took Poppy to Bottle Lake Forest for a run.
Poppy remembered and ran seven kilometres in search of Katrina, assuming she'd be waiting at the customary corner.
Tetley is a Lyttelton personality.
He's quite the ladies' man and his sociable habits once saw him narrowly avoid being kidnapped by some intoxicated Wunderbar patrons.
Ever since he was a puppy, owner Sarah and her father Ian took him for long walks in the hills but, on February 22, Ian wasn't at home.
Sarah and Tetley looked for him in the hills.
They went up the Major Hornbrook track and saw most of the bluff had fallen away.
Stones were still skittering down the hillside around them.
On the Stan Helms track, Tetley began to bark and ran into a deep, overgrown gully.
Sarah and Tetley stayed with Ian's body until it got dark.
Hours later, Tetley had to be coaxed away from Ian before some soldiers could carry his body home.
Two years later, Sarah and Tetley still go walking in the hills, sometimes stopping to visit the place where Ian was killed.

Many drivers with rear-wheel-drive cars add bags of sand to their trunk to provide extra weight to improve control in winter weather, but those bags can be too heavy to move individually by smaller people and they're a pain if you need to pour out a little sand for traction. Instead store sand or kitty litter in 2-liter soda bottles to make it easier to move and pour out when needed. Advertisement Environmental weblog Chasing Green also notes that bags of sand might also break or develop leaks if you've used the same bag for years of winter driving. Keep in mind that adding weight to trunk won't help your car if is front-wheel-drive or AWD, but for rear-wheel-drive vehicles adding weight increases traction in the drive wheels.Even if you don't have a rear-wheel-drive vehicle it might be worth carrying one or two 2-liter bottles of sand or kitty litter so that if you get stuck you can pour out some of the sand or kitty litter in the path of your tires to gain extra traction to help free your car.

Very nice for almond butter
Not a fan of almond butter, but it's the best I've tasted.
Posted by Reviewer2030241 on Oct 15, 2011
Dislike plastic jar, prefer glass. Dislike texture of this, uniformly gritty. Doesn't taste of either almond, nor maple. Very very mediocre, at best. If you love almond butter and maple, buy both and mix at home, for the true flavours. It isn't in this plastic jar in this unnapealing paste.

Columbus, OH (Sports Network) - Ryan Finley scored his first MLS goal and added an assist as the Columbus Crew earned interim head coach Brian Bliss his first victory after posting a 2-0 result over the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday at Crew Stadium.
Bliss became the man in charge on Monday after the Crew parted ways with former boss Robert Warzycha, who was in his fifth season at the helm, but the club has struggled this year and looks unlikely to make the postseason.
Needing three points to stay in the playoff hunt, Houston came out on the front foot and had several opportunities within the first 20 minutes as forward Will Bruin got behind the Columbus backline several times, but couldn't find the back of the net.
After starting slowly in the opening 45 minutes, the Crew broke the deadlock two minutes after the break when Bernardo Anor got the play started with an over-the-top ball to Justin Meram on the left side of the box. He took a touch and slid it across to Finley, who smashed it into the roof of the net.
The Crew finished the job in the 74th minute when Meram collected a loose ball just outside the area, made a quick cut to his left and fired it across his body into the far right corner, just past the outstretched arm of Houston goalkeeper Tally Hall.
The result keeps the Crew's faint playoff hopes alive as they are five points behind New England for the fifth and final postseason berth in the Eastern Conference, while Houston remains on 37 points.

For ska-punk survivor Less Than Jake, self-sufficiency and longevity go hand in hand
"The music industry," declares Less than Jake drummer and lyricist Vinnie Fiorello, "is pointing toward bands becoming their own cottage industry. Which means bands being in charge of their own merch, distribution of records, and production of records."
Fiorello makes this claim of the power of independence with an assurance that carries a great deal of weight — he boasts a long history of being hands-on with the business of music. In 1996, he co-founded indie label Fueled by Ramen (famous for later launching the career of Fall Out Boy). These days, he runs Less than Jake's new Sleep It Off imprint; another indie label, Paper + Plastic; and a toy company to boot.
And, of course, there is the long history of Less than Jake itself, an act that has always taken a hands-on approach with its business affairs and merchandising. According to Fiorello, the Florida ska-punk sextet geared itself toward self-sufficiency right from its 1992 beginnings. Although the band has periodically entered into relationships with outside record labels — which have included a string of indies and majors such as Capitol, Sire, Warner Bros., and Fat Wreck Chords — Fiorello says it has done so with a mind toward maintaining as much leverage as possible.
Less Than Jake
Marquee Theatre in Tempe
Less than Jake, Goldfinger, Big D and the Kids Table, and Suburban Legends are scheduled to perform on Wednesday, July 23.
He admits the extent of that leverage has varied over time, but he nonetheless makes music industry survival sound like a matter of simple common sense. It's not that Fiorello disputes the industry's rampant exploitation; he simply insists that bands must look out for themselves and not leap too readily at deals that cut corners. Cutting corners, he says, will cost you.

"Major labels are offering young bands 360 deals," Fiorello says, noting the increasing popularity of these contracts in the face of plummeting album sales. The structure gives the record label a cut from income streams such as publishing and merchandising, which traditionally have gone straight to the artist. "To me, that says labels are looking at themselves more as banks now," he notes. "And if they're bankrolling a band's project, then they're going to want more of a lion's share."
Less than Jake, however, didn't have that type of deal and didn't want it. And it's because of that attitude, Fiorello says, that the group was dispatched from Warner Bros., which released the band's 2006 album, In with the Out Crowd. (Sire, a Warners subsidiary, had released its two previous albums.) "There was only one way to point," he says, "which was to start our own label and release our own records, not only the new record, but previous material that we own."
In that regard, Less than Jake — along with its self-administered new home base, Sleep It Off — is staying true to the picture Fiorello paints. And then some. Earlier this year, the band re-issued deluxe expanded editions of three albums from its back catalog: its first two albums, Losers, Kings, and Things We Don't Understand and Pezcore, as well as the 2002 rarities compilation Goodbye Blue and White. It also released the documentary DVD The People's History of Less than Jake and put out a new album, GNV FLA, in June.
"We own all that stuff," Fiorello stresses. "If you were starting a business and you owned a certain amount of whatever it may be — lamps, for example — wouldn't you want to take those lamps back? So, if you look at where the state of the music industry is and the fact that we already owned a certain amount of the masters, paid for the recordings ourselves, paid for a lot of that side of things, why not start a company and sell those past things that we own, and not only that but also step into the future with doing something new? It's where the industry's going anyway, so why not step ahead of the curve?"
Fiorello is clearly excited at the prospect of having more autonomy over his own product. But doesn't working five releases at one time get overwhelming? In a word: yes. "You know what? It's a pain in my ass," he admits. "It's intensive. It's a full-time job. Less than Jake is taking up a large part of the day — and my thoughts."
And the work isn't letting up anytime soon — Less than Jake plans on re-releasing the rest of its back catalog, which means having to negotiate with former labels for the rights to some master tapes. But it sounds as though Fiorello, the quintessential career-driven entrepreneur, is right in his element. In music's changing business landscape, his band stands to take its DIY ethic to a new level altogether. Even though record sales are down, for Less than Jake, less can still mean more.

Matthew Bourne brings his hit show in Italy
Smiling and looking relaxed in blazer and sneakers, Matthew Bourne always looks like the guy with a penchant for musical, cinema, opera and ballet, which he taught to himself after dropping out of school. At the time it was him who would ask for autographs at London theaters' stage doors for his collection, and today with his, "musical theatre" - that's how he calls it - he is a global star.
After the somber Dorian Gray, he's back in Italy with his succesful show: the irresistible Swan Lake with male swans that since 1995 has been a hit at the box offices in the West End and in Broadway, earned two Tony Awards and is still touring the world.
"When I was young I adored musical films with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly and also Hitchcock. My entire works is affected by cinema, including Swan Lake, that features references to Birds by Hitchcock. I saw it as a child, and the vision of that flock of birds violently attacking Tippi Hedren really scared me".
For the use of Tchaikovsky's score, the respectful approach to the synopsis' structure, and for the shrewd choreographic citations, his Swan Lake owes a great deal to the original ballet: "I discovered ballet late in my life" recalls Bourne, "precisely watching a Swan Lake performance: I was overwhelmed by the music and by its extravagance, and not by a sensation of beauty". This is precisely the feeling conveyed by his flock of bare-chested male dancers clad in feathered pants: "My swans had to look poetic without losing their physical power and masculinity. I studied the movements of royal swans swimming, getting out of the water and taking off with that huge wingspan. They had to give the idea of freedom and convey it to the Prince, oppressed by monarchic obligations and by a family that resembles the British royal family".
On the subject of cinema references: in the final scene of Billy Elliot the film's hero who has finally become a dancer, hops on stage looking exactly as Bourne's Swan, played by the handsome Adam Cooper. "The director, Stephen Daldry, made me read the script of the final scene, featuring Billy Elliot dancing a classic version of Swan Lake: I told him I found it predictable and boring. Two years later he asked me to use the scene of my Swan Lake, a perfect choice for a working class rebel like Billy". Just like Matthew Bourne.
