The complex admixture fluxingly-retardatory to concretes and compoes

The Technical approval IBDiM No. AT/2004-04-1787
The Hygienic certificate PZH No. HK/B/1017/01/2004
PN-EN 934-2 the Admixture to the concrete, mortar and the leaven. Definitions and requirements

LUBOPLAST A is a modern plasticiser fluxingly-retardatory about the activity to complex. Especially recommended is to the production of concretes of goods, transported on further distances, Is Perfectly fitted for concretes of goods usual, special, plus of ashes, waterproof. Makes possible the leadership of concrete-works in the period of high temperatures. Is priced favourably within the range protections of the steel-armament.

Basic activities of the admixture on the concrete are following:

  • well it plastifies the concrete-mixture , makes possible the reduction of the water needs to make a mixture about 14-18 %,depending on used cement
  • the bond retards and considerably slow down thickening of the forwarding concrete-mixture
  • retards the growth of the endurance in the warming-up period R1 and R2, considerably increases
  • the endurance of the concrete on the compression and the extension in further time-limits, to begin from 2-nd of the day of the ripening
  • it increases the final endurance and the waterproofness of the concrete even without the reduction of the water needs to make a mixture (at constants w/c),
  • increases frost-proof of the concrete

LUBOSTAT A makes easy the production, the transport and the arrangement of all structural concretes usual, special, concretes plus of ashes, transported on considerable distances, about the elongated time of the processing. Besides: in consideration of the transmission to the mixture of the concrete- perfect gettability, the use LUBOPLAST A makes easy flow of the concrete-mixture and makes possible the good fulfilment of formworks lets on the regulation of the beginning and the end of the bond of the concrete in the large time slice the admixture can be practical at the exercise of road-constructions , pontages, of reinforced concrete, of hydraulic engineering, constructions of the cleaner of sewage, industrial buildings and habitable, elements large size and large concrete-massifs

LUBOPLAST And complies in quantities from 0,7 to 1,2 % masses of the cement, the optimum-dosage one ought to fix severally, depending on the destination of the concrete. Well she cooperates with all kinds of cements, and in case of the addition of ashes to the concrete. She can be at will dosed: to the stirring apparatus of the concrete-mixer, eg. after the long halt on the construction ,one can additionally use SKROBET in the quantity approx. 0,5%to pears directly before the unloading of the concrete. Overdosage of given quantity LUBOPLAST A will cause no negative results, besides the slowdown of the process of the bond. In such situation the concrete one ought carefully to screen with the vaporization of the water and to hold in the moist state to the time of the entire end of the bond. After the end of the bond follows the quick increase of the endurance of the concrete, and the final endurance does not become lowered, but follows usually her considerable increase.

Wall Whisperers

Wall Whisperers are what I call my acting brethren and girlthren. Whenever I go to auditions I see a line of people facing walls; talking to the paint.

It's been this way since I was a kid in forensics. We do that. It's our thing. The kid who auditioned with me as my son got a kick out of the term so I thought I'd share my lingo. Figure you can't go wrong with having creating a language for your love. Shakespeare did it after all!

You'll see some interesting stuff...

U.S. Bishops’ Domestic Chairman Reacts to Bipartisan Carbon Pricing Bill

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)

January 25, 2019

WASHINGTON—After the introduction of the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act of 2019 (EICDA) yesterday, Bishop Frank J. Dewane of Venice, Florida, Chairman of the U.S. Bishops’ Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, welcomed the legislation as an important step forward in addressing climate change.

The full statement follows:

“This bipartisan bill is a hopeful sign that more and more, climate change is beginning to be seen as a crucial moral issue; one that concerns all people. If enacted, this proposal is expected to result in significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. At a time when the dangerous effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent, the need for legislative solutions like this is more urgent than ever.

Fundamentally, this bill is about ensuring that the full spectrum of costs associated with greenhouse gas emissions—economic, social, and environmental—are accounted for. Failing to consider the health and well-being of people, including future generations and the planet, means that ‘businesses profit by calculating and paying only a fraction of the costs involved’ (Laudato Si’, no. 195). This proposed legislation is one possible remedy to addressing these imbalances.

While it is well-known that putting a price on carbon will increase energy prices, a phenomenon that can have a disproportionate impact on the poor, it is encouraging that initial analyses suggest that low-income individuals will overwhelmingly benefit from this policy. Additional in-depth and independent analysis is still needed to fully understand the potential impacts on poor and vulnerable persons, families and their communities. Supplemental support for these households may be needed to further alleviate potential financial burdens. Climate change can only ever be adequately addressed if it is done with an eye towards ‘the least of these.’”

The Internet Browser is the program you use to look at website and webpages. There are a variety of browsers available, the most common is Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, but alternatives include Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome.

A relatively recent addition to many people’s internet browser, is a toolbar at the top of their Internet Browser. It may be related to your Anti-Virus program, or it may be related to Google or Yahoo, or it might even be from your supermarket!

They may claim to make your internet life easier, or quicker, or they may not claim anything, and just secretly trick you into installing them anyway with a hidden tick box in a program you’re installing!

Does the top of your internet browser look like this?

Very often, when I’m called out to a slow running PC, I notice a stack of toolbars at the top of their screen, and in my opinion, they serve no useful purpose at all, other than displaying their makers’ name and logo at the top of your screen whenever you use the internet.

This is great for their brand awareness but very bad for the performance of your internet browser! Not to mention, each one also uses up a very useful centimeter at the top of your screen, and if you had 6 or 8 as I’ve seen on some computers, they take up about half of your screen, leaving a narrow window for you to actually view the webpage that you’re trying to look at!

If you look at the top of your internet browser, and notice that you have a stack of these pests, you should try uninstalling them from the Control Panel, or if that sounds too frightening, and your computer feels like it’s wading through treacle, then please give me a call and have a friendly chat!

If you have any questions, please call me anytime.

Advice and Smiles are always FREE!

This is actually a VIRUS! Convincing, isn't it?

This is a tricky subject, because if I’m not careful this subject is going to get unbearably technical, and I’m going to become the worst sort of nerd in no time at all!

There are lots of different names thrown around nowadays, such as Spyware, Trojan, Malware, as well as Virus. My best answer is don’t bother trying to understand them. You can ask any number of Geeks or Nerds and no-one is quite sure where the lines of difference lie. They’re all bad, and it doesn’t really matter what the difference is anyway!

By far the most common one at the moment, is one that pops up a very convincing Anti-Virus window in the middle of your screen saying something like WARNING! WE’VE DETECTED 4,367 VIRUSES ON YOUR COMPUTER! CLICK HERE TO REMOVE THEM!

It’s all very convincing, but if you click, it’ll take you to a page where you have to pay them $80+ to download their removal software. Don’t even bother, it’s a scam and the problem will come back in a month or so. You’re already infected, even if you had Antivirus installed, so the only thing I can advise you to do is to give me a call and I can remove it for you manually.

While we’re on the subject of scams, There’s another scam specifically targetting pensioners at the moment. You’ll get a phone call from a polite young man saying something along the lines of: “Hello, I’m from Microsoft, we can see you have a problem with your computer, would you like me to fix it for you?”

Of course they know nothing about you, and will try and get your credit card number off you. My best advice is to hang up or at least say “no thanks”.

So you’ve given up on your old computer, and decided to go for a beautiful, all-singing and dancing new PC!

My first bit of advice is to go to a big computer chain shop, and have a look at the variety of computers they have there. (I’d advise leaving your credt card at home at this point) get a feel for what you like, and what you’re not bothered about, and to discover exactly what the difference is beween all those computers on display!

There are only a few specifications that are actually relevant to a normal user .It’s a difficult thing to explain in a few words here, but if your computer is around 6 years old, then the cheapest computer money can buy today will probably be around 10 times faster than your old one. Don’t let a pushy salesman persuade you to “upgrade” further and for more money! If you use your computer for emailing, surfing the Internet, and family photos, then the cheapest new computer you can find wil be plenty powerful enough for you. It must have at least 2GB of RAM memory, and a minimum of 320GB hard disk. If you’re a bit of an expert at photography, or a film maker like me, or have another specialist requirement, it would be best to call me for a free chat about what you need.

Fortunately computers come ready assembled nowadays!

Another golden tip is to buy something that’s on offer – Last season’s computers will sometimes have up to £100 off, and if a brand new computer’s already 10 times faster than your old one, why not save £100 and buy one only 9 times faster!

When your new flashy toy arrives, you might want some help to unbox and set it up, or to transfer everything from the old computer to the new computer, so please feel free to give me a call if you’d like some help!

If you’re using an older computer, say over 3 years old and running Windows XP, you might have noticed it’s not running as fast as it used to. Maybe you turn it on in the morning, and you’ve got enough time to make breakfast and have a cup of tea before it’s finished starting up!

This is the magical RAM memory!

Don’t despair! There is hope! Very often, the solution is much easier than you’d think. It’s usually down to something called RAM memory. A lot of people confuse memory with Hard Disk space, but the two are completely different.

What’s the difference, and why does memory affect the performance so much?

Imagine a Library – Think of your Hard Disk drive as the number of books in the library. RAM memory is the number of books you can carry at once. If you can only carry one book at a time, you have to keep going in and out, in and out, carrying one book at a time. Think how much faster it would be if you could grab all 10 books at a time!

A few years ago, when your computer was new, memory was very expensive, perhaps 4-5 times the price it is now! So to fit lots of memory then to your computer would have added £100-£200 to the purchase price! Nowadays, memory is cheap and you can completely change your computer’s performance just by adding more memory. A typical upgrade should cost around £50-£60, fitted, and you’ll instantly notice the difference! (As long as lack of memory was the problem to begin with!)

It’s a very quick job to fit memory, and my favourite part is the difference you see to your startup time. People are always happy after I’ve visited!

If you have any questions, please call me on 01689 862825

Advice and Smiles are always FREE!

I’ve been fixing computers for more than 15 years, and computers have become a lot more reliable in that time. There are only two components that commonly fail now – The Power Supply Unit (PSU) and the Hard Disk Drive (HDD). However, there is a big difference between the two failures.

The PSU failing is not a big deal – a replacement is around £20 – £40, plus around half an hour’s labour. The HDD is also fairly cheap to replace, but the contents on your hard disk drive are usually PRICELESS!

Ask yourself this question – if my computer was hit by a bomb right now, what would happen to all my family photos, all my financial records, and all my letters and emails that I’ve collected over the past years?

Do you do backups? You may think it won’t happen to me!… However, I can tell you that every month I’ll have at least one client call me up from the Farnborough/Orpington area with a dead Hard Disk Drive and NO BACKUP!

It’s truly heartbreaking to hear them describe the irreplaceable photos of their newborn baby or their late mother that have been lost. Sometimes things can be done to recover files, but brace yourself, some companies can charge £hundreds for data recovery and there can be no guarantees of success!

What can you do? Buy a backup drive. You can buy little backup drives that are a little bigger than an Iphone, and will store absolutely everything on them. Expect to pay around £50-£60 and make sure you get one that comes with free backup software too. Fitting is literally a single USB wire, as it gets its power from your computer, and the software should install itself.  And the best thing is that your memories and records are safe.

If you have any questions, please call me on 01689 862825

Is Your Business Safe from Online Threats?

Did you know that 50% of small business owners think their businesses are too small to be targeted by the thieves  of the virtual world? Contrary to popular belief, 72% of hacker attacks often happen to smaller firms – firms with less than 100 employees!  So how prepared is your SMB? Here’s a checklist to help you find out how vulnerable you are these attacks.

  1. Do you have Antivirus protection? An antivirus software program can protect you from threats that originate from emails such as phishing and virus attacks. However, the most striking fact is that 61% of small businesses don’t install any antivirus software! If you are one of them, then it’s time to change!
  2. How sturdy is your Firewall? A good firewall system protects your computers from the variety of threats that exist in the virtual world. Examples include harmful cookies, viruses, worms and other such malicious programs used by hackers.
  3. Do you use a Spam filter? Using a simple spam filter for your e-mails keeps junk out of your inbox. The bonus to having a good spam filter is that your employees save time (as they are not distracted by irrelevant mails), but the major perk here is that the potential virus and phishing threats are lessened as spam mails are unlikely to be opened.
  4. Do you backup your data regularly?  Agreed – backups don’t really protect your data, but they are the only way to recover if data loss does happen. So, be sure you have a regular and reliable backup plan in place – and that it is actually being deployed.

Data loss can prove very costly—especially to SMBs, sometimes even resulting in them having to close their doors forever. Prevention is certainly better than a cure in such cases.

Solutions for a sustainable future in energy storage

Running 23-24 May in Adelaide, the Australian Energy Storage Conference and Exhibition (AES 2018) saw the biggest names in energy storage come together to showcase their latest technologies and processes. Manufacturers’ Monthly reports.

The fifth edition of the Australian Energy Storage (AES) Conference and Exhibition held in Adelaide, revolved around the central theme of “Storing Energy for a Sustainable Future.”

More than 60 leading companies in the Australian and global energy storage industry exhibited their newest technologies.

The conference sessions focused on the latest developments in lithium batteries, flow batteries, hydrogen storage, silicon thermal storage, compressed air storage, flywheel energy storage, inverters, lead acid batteries, pumped hydro, hybrid system providers, and energy management.

A dominant message in the conference sessions was the need to prepare Australia for the inevitable transition to renewable energy and the available solutions to do so in the most sustainable way.

South Australian Minister for Energy and Mining, Dan van Holst Pellekaan, reaffirmed this message in his welcome address: “The level of attendance [in the conference] is a testament to the importance of storage in the energy transition. It is not a choice of whether to increase clean energy, but how to do it. The transition is underway and the transition will continue.

“You can not pursue such a high take-up of variable renewable energy without it being paired with a growth in storage and interconnection,” van Holst Pellekaan said.

Tackling high energy costs: GFG Alliance’s model Keynote speaker, GFG Alliance chairman Sanjeev Gupta discussed his company’s plans and ambitions for investing in various sectors in Australia, noting that all of those investments were reliant on being able to effectively lower the energy costs through renewable energy generation and storage.

He mentioned plans by GFG Alliance to invest in establishing a bank for the mid-corporate companies (with turnover ranging from $50-$500 million), expanding the mine acquisitions across Australia and investing in non- ferrous minerals and expanding his steel production and scrap steel and scrap aluminium recycling business (Green Steel and Green Aluminium).

A dominant message in the conference was the need to prepare Australia for the inevitable transition to renewable energy and the available solutions.

Underpinning all those investments, he said, would be the company’s investments in energy.

“Energy is a great cost in all of our business sectors. In steel production, about a third of our cost is in energy.

“Since we came here, from having the lowest energy costs in the world, Australia quickly became one of the highest energy cost countries in the world,” he said.

At the same time, he said, energy consumption in Australia is expected to grow with the evolution of domestic economy, and strengthened by the entry of international investors, such as GFG Alliance.

To tackle the issue, he described GFG Alliance’s solutions as threefold: taking control of
their own energy generation; pairing energy generation with load balancing mechanisms; and developing renewable energy solutions for the wider society.

While Gupta’s company had earlier committed to building 1GW of large-scale solar-plus-storage in and around Whyalla, he said the scope of GFG’s investments in renewable energy across Australia could increase to as much as 10GW – keeping in line with the company’s industrial growth.

Gupta also confirmed plans to enter into electric car production with iStream, a light-weight car designed by UK’s Formula One designer Gordon Murray.

“The design uses F1 technology, but at the opposite end of the scale – making competitive cars for $20,000 to $30,000. The car has a light frame as it uses tubular chassis rather than the traditional chassis. It also uses composite panels. So, it’s a much lighter car and therefore well suited to the electric car technology.

“That is the car which we will invest in both Australia and India. We are looking at setting up a plant in the next two-three years, either in South Australia or in another part of the country, subject to what conditions are best for production,” he said.

He also hinted at future plans to enter lithium battery production and battery recycling.

“Australia has the best material resources, both in terms of energy and minerals. But unfortunately it has failed in capitalising on them. The way I see it [with battery production], we are again heading towards exporting the lithium material to China and other places such as Korea or Japan, without adding much value.

“There is a clear and great opportunity for us to take charge of this change in the world order where batteries will become a key part of our lives. Both battery production and battery recycling are clear opportunities and we will try to get involved in them,” he said.

In a conversation with Manufacturers’ Monthly, he encouraged manufacturers in all sectors to take benefit of renewable energy to bring down costs.

“If you have a warehouse processing, you can easily apply solar roofs and batteries. The key is to bring the cost of these things down. At the moment, the costs are quite high, and one of the reasons is the cost of finance and how long it takes to amortise it, because many businesses cannot, or will not, amortise these plants over a long period. They want to pay them back in much smaller periods,” he said.

While admitting that not all companies can follow suit with GFG Alliance’s integrated model to generate their own renewable energy, he recommended that companies look for energy generators who can offer renewable energy at competitive rates – an example being GFG Alliance’s recent deal with Neon to supply power to Laverton steel works in Victoria.

“Where some other company has a cheap form of generation, we buy from them. It all depends on what is the best opportunity available,” he said.

Flow batteries as a solution

Another keynote speaker, Simon Hackett, non-executive director and technology evangelist-Redflow Limited, spoke about the advantages  of flow batteries over conventional batteries such as lithium ion and lead- acid batteries.

Redflow’s ZBM2 Zinc-Bromine flow battery is the first small-scale application of flow batteries, making them ideal for use in residential, telecommunications, commercial and industrial and even grid-scale energy storage.

“Unlike conventional batteries, flow batteries don’t lose their output capacity with ageing. All other types of batteries wear out with time and the more you use them, their capacity diminishes with age. That’s something we are used to and we think that’s a normal thing with a battery. It may be a normal thing with conventional batteries, but not with flow batteries,” Hackett told Manufacturers’ Monthly.

“Flow batteries can also be completely charged and discharged. They have no concept of reserved capacity. They also don’t suffer from what is called as thermal runaway. In lithium batteries, one of the consequences of their high energy storage capacity is that capacity also governs the thermal runaway.

Redflow non-executive director, Simon Hackett spoke about the advantages of flow batteries over conventional batteries.

But a major advantage, Hackett said, is the recyclability of flow batteries, making them a better choice for the environment compared to lithium and lead-acid batteries. “All components of Redflow batteries can be either recycled or re-used,” he said.

“One of the things that we need to be careful about as we move into a sustainable energy future, replacing base-load power with dispatchable generation, is not to follow saving the environment from coal with destroying it with an environmental disaster around recycling enormous quantities of conventional batteries,” he said.

In the near future, Auckland-based Hi-Tech Solutions will be deploying Redflow’s ZBM2 batteries to build advanced hybrid energy storage systems that will deliver reliable power to multiple remote sites in a Pacific Island nation.

“It’s actually a multi-island telecommunications and digital TV network. The smaller sites will have two or three batteries, and the bigger sites will have up to 60 batteries installed in a container case.

“The New Zealand company chose Redflow’s battery for its resiliency, recyclability, fire-resistance and lighter weight compared to acid batteries,” he said.

Battery inverter-charger for large-scale storage projects Other exhibitors launched new products, allowing delegates to be the first to see ground-breaking technologies in the market. Victron Energy was one of these companies, showcasing MultiPlus-II series of battery inverter-chargers.

Victron Energy sales manager, Philip Crotty said the MultiPlus-II converters use old, long-proven design methodology, but offer that at competitive costs through adoption of modern manufacturing methods and new components.

Victron Energy sales manager, Philip Crotty.

The MultiPlus-II is a 48-volt inverter-charger that readily connects with a range of energy storage systems, from lead-acid and lithium- based batteries to zinc-bromine flow batteries. The unit is easier to install than earlier models with AC connections accessible via a single plate on its base. The 18-kilogram MultiPlus-II draws just 11 watts of standby power, less than half that used by the model it supersedes.

“We have designed this model specifically for on-grid energy storage systems, but it can also be used in off- grid and micro grid connections,” he told Manufacturers’ Monthly.

He cited as one of the most popular applications of their system helping optimise existing diesel generators.

“Diesel generators are used in many remote sites, such as in mining applications. The diesel generators are built for the maximum load, but quite often the load is way below the maximum. In this situation, the efficiency is very low and it causes quicker wear out.

“If you have a battery, instead of running the generator 24 hours a day, you can run it for two to three hours a day at peak efficiency and fill up the battery. And then, those variable loads can be taken out of the battery,” he said.

As with all Victron inverter- chargers, the MultiPlus-II is a transformer-based system, which can immediately deliver backup power if the grid drops out. This includes start- up supply for high-demand devices, such as air conditioners and freezers.

On the utility side, Crotty said Victron Energy’s controllers are also used to smooth out the grid in distributed power generation.

High power/low energy battery technology Ike Hong, vice president and head of power solutions division, Kokam, explained the theory behind high power/low battery technology and how to choose the right battery technology for each application.

“To install the battery storage system, you need to define two different numbers: the capacity – which is determined by what is the  single largest loss of load on the system – and the battery energy, which is to do with how long you are going to operate the system. The C-rate is the ratio between energy and power.

“Energy applications requiring energy to be provided over a long period of time with long recharge times favour lower C-rate battery technologies; whereas power applications that require energy to be provided over a short period of time with fast recharge favour the high C-rate battery technologies,” he said.

Kokam vice president, Ike Hong, and general manager Australian Operations, Jon Pemberton, discussed their companies’ latest technologies.

Kokam is currently providing battery solutions to multiple industries, including electric buses, electric passenger cars, electric tram and the railway industry, yachts and submarines, as well as military vehicles, missile defence systems and aircrafts, Hong told Manufacturers’ Monthly.

While Kokam has found a niche market in the off-grid mining sector, with six projects completed in Australia – the latest being a 30MW lithium battery storage project for Alinta Energy in the Pilbara region of Western Australia – Hong said his company is also looking at expanding into the local market for utility-scale energy storage systems.

Kokam provides a range of lithium ion/polymer battery solutions to customers in over 50 countries.

According to Hong, his company is now planning to open office in Australia, considering the exponential growth in demand for battery solutions.

“When we came here three to four years ago, there were only a few small pilot projects, whereas now, there are so many big projects and everyone wants to put storage systems everywhere. So, it’s a very good time for us to ramp-up the scale of our business here,” he said.

Thermal energy storage systems Dr Kevin Moriarty, executive chairman of 1414 Degrees discussed his company’s unique thermal energy storage system (TESS) and how it can be utilised to deliver clean heat.

1414 Degrees’ technology uses the latent heat properties of silicon to store and recover high-temperature heat and electricity. Silicon’s high melting point (1414° Celsius)means it can hold much more energy than other phase change materials.

Moriarty noted that while 1414 Degrees had initially planned to use the technology to compete with battery storage systems, an approach he referred to as “naïve, considering that the batteries would do that a lot better.”

In its current approach, however, 1414 Degrees is focusing on providing energy in the form most used in the world – heat.

“We had underestimated the demand for clean heat. Since we changed our approach, we have had many companies come to us who said around two-third to 95 per cent of their energy needs are heat related. They said we want to install solar panels on the roofs of our factories to replace gas, because gas is expensive,” he said.

Noting that about 50 per cent of the European Union’s energy consumption is in heating/cooling, Moriarty said estimates based on data from the Federal Government showed that about a third (33.5 per cent) of energy use in Australia is in the form of heat, while electricity consumption is less than a third (27.1 per cent). The remaining consumption is in transport.

1414 Degrees is currently developing joint ventures to commercialise its technology, including a 10MWh TESS device to be deployed at Pepe Ducks processing plant and a biogas energy recovery and storage project for the Glenelg Wastewater Treatment.

Moriarty pictured a future where renewable generation will replace gas for industrial heat.

“The worldwide market for heat is much larger than electricity. In the future, the renewable generation will feed the grid and that electricity will be used to supply the industries with efficient electricity and heat.

“We are not going to compete with batteries. We want to operate at a much bigger scale and the end result should be that we can use the existing grid infrastructure, rather than using distributed storage solutions, to lower costs and increase efficiency,” he said.

Returning to the issue of sustainability, Moriarty said the problem with using a wrong solution is that you can end up with negative consequences down the road. “Batteries are not the solution for bulk storage. It has to be something else, and we think we’ve got one of them,” he concluded.

GPA, Georgia Tech, Center for Innovation sign MOU

Agreement allows customers to tap into advanced logistics planning

The Georgia Ports Authority, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Georgia Center of Innovation for Logistics signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on July 31 at the Port of Savannah that creates a new relationship aimed at supporting the state’s logistics industry in economic development, research, and education.

“For years, Georgia Tech has been honored to work together with the Ports Authority, Governor Nathan Deal’s office, and business and government throughout the state in logistics, transportation, manufacturing, and education to strengthen our State economy and create jobs,” said Georgia Tech President G.P. “Bud” Peterson. “We are pleased to further solidify this partnership to benefit Georgia’s transportation and logistics industry.”

The goal of the MOU is to bring advanced research, evolving global logistics trends, and analysis from the world to Savannah. By tapping into the hands-on expertise at GPA and the Center of Innovation for Logistics — as well as the high-tech analysis and research at Georgia Tech’s Supply Chain and Logistics Institute — cargo owners and third-party logistics providers will gain superior insight into everything from when and where to build infrastructure to improved efficiency in cargo routing.

“Georgia Tech’s Supply Chain & Logistics Institute has established logistics improvement partnerships in global trade hubs such as Rotterdam, Singapore, Shenzhen, and Panama,” said GPA Board Chairman Jimmy Allgood.   “I am delighted to announce that for their first such agreement with a port authority in the Western Hemisphere, they have chosen an organization that is in their own state of Georgia.”

Georgia Tech’s Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering has been ranked No. 1 in the country for the past 28 years, and Georgia Tech is recognized as one of the leading research universities in the world.

Matt Markham, director of the Georgia Center of Innovation for Logistics, said the collaborative effort further strengthens the state’s position as an economic development leader.

“Most companies that choose Georgia as their home depend on its world-class logistics for their success,” Markham said. “Our new relationship builds on our center’s goal of providing company-specific analyses and facilitating connections between logistics providers and potential clients.”

The multi-modal network is designed to combine ocean, truck, rail, and air transportation to create optimal conditions for an easier and faster network. GPA Executive Director Griff Lynch said the initiative will allow the Georgia Ports Authority to continue growing its service area across the U.S. Southeast and beyond.

“We are excited to enter into this agreement between our organizations,” Lynch said. “The MOU leverages the Institute’s predictive analytics and supply chain optimization, the Center of Innovation for Logistics’ network of connections, and the GPA’s experience in the field as an industry leader.”

Since 1945, Georgia’s ports have served as magnets for international trade and investment, enriching the state’s economy to benefit all Georgians. The Georgia Ports Authority is dedicated to providing customers with the most efficient, productive port facilities in the nation, and to creating jobs and business opportunities to benefit more than 9.7 million Georgians. The GPA is committed to maintaining its competitive edge through development of leading-edge technology, marketing and operations to move cargo faster. And, the Authority is working hard to identify what must be done today to sustain growth, performance and security for tomorrow.

The Georgia Institute of Technology, also known as Georgia Tech, is one of the nation’s leading research universities — a university that embraces change while continually creating the next. The next generation of leaders. The next breakthrough startup company. The next life-saving medical treatment. Georgia Tech provides a focused, technologically based education to more than 25,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Georgia Tech has many nationally recognized programs, all top-ranked by peers and publications alike, and is ranked in the nation’s top 10 public universities by U.S. News and World Report. It offers degrees through the Colleges of Computing, Design, Engineering, Sciences, the Scheller College of Business, and the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts. As a leading technological university, Georgia Tech has more than 100 centers focused on interdisciplinary research that consistently contribute vital research and innovation to American government, industry, and business.

The Center of Innovation for Logistics facilitates innovative logistics solutions that leverage Georgia’s superior business climate and enhance cargo-owing companies’ competitiveness. Exclusive to Georgia, the Center collaborates with companies that currently ship to or from Georgia, as well as those looking to locate in Georgia to deploy the world’s best multi-modal logistics for supply chain success. With targeted efforts to engage its unique position in state government with partnerships in the logistics industry, the Center provides impactful forums for companies to network, address industry issues, and share knowledge.

What Hailey Loves

Hailey loves to play with the lock on our wine rack in our kitchen. She now says "key" all the time.

She doesn't like to be in the stroller anymore. When we walk to my mom's house she runs through everyone's yard. She loves to sit on people's front porches like she owns the place.

She also likes to open envelopes that come in the mail. She is fascinated by taking things out of the envelope and putting them back.

She is very good at helping with the laundry and washing dishes.

She loves to wear these sunglasses... all the time!

She loves to look at books.

We recently took her to a movie screening and her 3d glasses were way too big for her little head. She watched the whole movie just the same, even though it was blurry.

She even wants to wear her glasses to bed.

Last Day Camping

Can't remember what his face looks like clean.

Helping to make breakfast.

Freshly cleaned and throwing dirt on her stomach. Good thing we are going home later today.

A helping hand is always appreciated.

The nicest bathroom I have ever seen camping.

And free showers.

I have reached my camping max.... 3 days.

One last swim before we go home.

When we go camping my dad always buys ice cream sandwiches.

Evan pushed Hailey into a wood door frame. Like the bump on her face?

At least it is not permanent.

It was the best thing to go home and find that Steve cleaned like a maid while we were gone.

Steve had a Lego Zoo waiting for the kids.

Google selects the McDonough-designed Porta Nuova Isola for its Italian offices

Milan, January 8th 2014 – Hines Italia SGR, a leader in the management of Italian and international real estate funds, announced today that Google has signed a 5,000-square-meter (53,800-square-foot) lease for its Italian offices at Porta Nuova, the Hines mixed-use development in Milan.

Google will consolidate its Italian operation in the Porta Nuova Isola building, an 11-story, 10,000-square-meter (107,600-square-foot) office building that is part of Porta Nuova, one of the largest urban redevelopments in Europe.

With the signing of the Google lease, the office building at Porta Nuova Isola is now 80 percent leased to Google and Pandora Jewelry.

Manfredi Catella, CEO of Hines Italia Sgr, commented, “Following the recent partnership in Porta Nuova with sovereign fund Qatar Holding, Google’s relocation of its Italian headquarters to Porta Nuova confirms the unique and innovative character of this major urban redevelopment project. The area is quickly emerging as a new vital hub for Italy’s economy and future.”

Joe Borrett, Director of Real Estate & Construction (EMEA) for Google, said: “We are excited that this move to Porta Nuova will enable us to locate all our Milan team in a single office.”

Designed by William McDonough + Partners, the office building optimizes the workplace environment through efficient floor plates and core layout, natural ventilation, access to the outdoors through a series of exterior terraces, and a high-performance window glazing system that maximizes views and transparency while minimizing heat gain. The building envelope is expected to achieve LEED® Gold certification, while the office spaces will comply with the guidelines for LEED Commercial Interiors.

Google’s corporate culture of environmental sensitivity and social responsibility fits perfectly with the philosophy of the project and the history of the surrounding neighborhoods.

Britain votes to leave European Union in shocking, unprecedented move

LONDON — Britain voted to leave the European Union after a bitterly divisive referendum campaign, toppling the government Friday, sending global markets plunging and shattering the stability of a project in continental unity designed half a century ago to prevent World War III.

The decision launches a yearslong process to renegotiate trade, business and political links between the United Kingdom and what would become a 27-nation bloc, an unprecedented divorce that could take decades to complete.

“The dawn is breaking on an independent United Kingdom,” said Nigel Farage, leader of the U.K. Independence Party. “Let June 23 go down in our history as our independence day!”

Prime Minister David Cameron, who had led the campaign to keep Britain in the EU, said he would resign by October and left it to his successor to decide when to invoke Article 50, which triggers a departure from European Union.

“I will do everything I can as prime minister to steady the ship over the coming weeks and months,” he said, “but I do not think it would be right for me to try to be the captain that steers the country to its next destination.”

The electoral commission said 52 percent of voters opted to leave the EU. Turnout was high: 72 percent of the more than 46 million registered voters cast ballots.

Polls ahead of the vote had shown a close race, but the momentum had increasingly appeared to be on the “remain” side over the last week. The result shocked investors, and stock markets plummeted around the world, with key indexes dropping 10 percent in Germany and about 8 percent in Japan and Britain.

The euro fell against the dollar and the pound dropped to its lowest level since 1985, plunging more than 10 percent from about $1.50 to $1.35 before a slight recovery, on concerns that severing ties with the single market will hurt the U.K. economy and undermine London’s position as a global financial center. Bank of England Gov. Mark Carney sought to reassure the markets.

“We are well prepared for this,” Carney said. “The Treasury and the Bank of England have engaged in extensive contingency planning. … We have taken all the necessary steps to prepare for today’s events.”

Also seeking to calm frayed nerves was the most prominent “leave” campaigner, Boris Johnson. Taking a somber tone unusual for the flamboyant former London mayor, he said the result in no way meant the United Kingdom would be “less united” or “less European.”

Even as he spoke, however, Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said a second Scottish referendum on independence from the United Kingdom “has to be on the table.” Scotland voted in 2014 to remain a part of the U.K. but leaders said afterward that was conditional on Britain remaining in the EU.

The U.K. would be the first major country to leave the EU, which was born from the ashes of World War II as European leaders sought to build links and avert future hostility. With no precedent, the impact on the single market of 500 million people — the world’s largest economy — is unclear.

Leaders from across the EU voiced regret at the British decision. Germany called top diplomats from the EU’s six founding nations to a meeting Saturday, and the president of the European Council, Donald Tusk, said the bloc will meet without Britain at a summit next week to assess its future. Tusk vowed not to let the vote derail the European project.

“What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger,” he said.

But already, far-right leaders in France and the Netherlands were calling for a similar anti-EU vote.

The referendum showed Britain to be a sharply divided nation: Strong pro-EU votes in the economic and cultural powerhouse of London and semi-autonomous Scotland were countered by sweeping anti-Establishment sentiment for an exit across the rest of England, from southern seaside towns to rust-belt former industrial powerhouses in the north.

“It’s a vindication of 1,000 years of British democracy,” commuter Jonathan Campbell James declared at the train station in Richmond, southwest London. “From Magna Carta all the way through to now we’ve had a slow evolution of democracy, and this vote has vindicated the maturity and depth of the democracy in our country.”

Others expressed anger and frustration. Olivia Sangster-Bullers, 24, called the result “absolutely disgusting.”

“Good luck to all of us, I say, especially those trying to build a future with our children,” she said.

Cameron called the referendum largely to silence voices to his right, then staked his reputation on keeping Britain in the EU. Former London Mayor Boris Johnson, who is from the same party, was the most prominent supporter of the “leave” campaign and now becomes a leading contender to replace Cameron. The vote also dealt a blow to the main opposition Labour Party, which threw its weight behind the “remain” campaign.

“A lot of people’s grievances are coming out and we have got to start listening to them,” said deputy Labour Party leader John McDonnell.

Indeed, the vote constituted a rebellion against the political, economic and social Establishment. All manner of groups — CEOs, scientists, soldiers — had written open letters warning of the consequences of an exit. Farage called the result “a victory for ordinary people against the big banks, big business and big politics.”

Donald Trump praised the decision during a visit to one of his golf courses in Scotland, saying Britons “took back their country. It’s a great thing.” He likened the vote to the U.S. sentiment that has propelled him to the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, saying people in the United States and the United Kingdom are angry about similar things.

“People are angry all over the world,” he said.

After winning a majority in Parliament in the last election, Cameron negotiated a package of reforms that he said would protect Britain’s sovereignty and prevent EU migrants from moving to the U.K. to claim generous public benefits.

Critics charged that those reforms were hollow, leaving Britain at the mercy of bureaucrats in Brussels and doing nothing to stem the tide of European immigrants who have come to the U.K. since the EU expanded eastward in 2004. The “leave” campaign accuses the immigrants of taxing Britain’s housing market, public services and employment rolls.

Those concerns were magnified by the refugee crisis of the past year that saw more than 1 million people from the Middle East and Africa flood into the EU as the continent’s leaders struggled to come up with a unified response.

Cameron’s efforts to find a slogan to counter the “leave” campaign’s emotive “take back control” settled on “Brits don’t quit.” But the appeal to a Churchillian bulldog spirit and stoicism proved too little, too late.

The slaying of pro-Europe lawmaker Jo Cox a week before the vote brought a shocked pause to both campaigns and appeared to shift momentum away from the “leave” camp. While it isn’t clear whether her killer was influenced by the EU debate, her death aroused fears that the referendum had stirred demons it would be difficult to subdue.

The result triggers a new series of negotiations that is expected to last two years or more as Britain and the EU search for a way to separate economies that have become intertwined since the U.K. joined the bloc on Jan. 1, 1973. Until those talks are completed, Britain will remain a member of the EU.

Exiting the EU involves taking the unprecedented step of invoking Article 50 of the EU’s governing treaty. While Greenland left an earlier, more limited version of the bloc in 1985, no country has ever invoked Article 50, so there is no roadmap for how the process will work.

Authorities ranging from the International Monetary Fund to the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Bank of England have warned that a British exit will reverberate through a world economy that is only slowly recovering from the global economic crisis. The European Union is the world’s biggest economy and the U.K.’s most important trading partner, accounting for 45 percent of exports and 53 percent of imports.

In addition, the complex nature of Britain’s integration with the EU means that breaking up will be hard to do. The negotiations will go far beyond tariffs, including issues such as cross-border security, foreign policy cooperation and a common fisheries policy.

It will also affect the ability of professionals such as investment managers, accountants and lawyers to work in the EU, threatening London’s position as one of the world’s pre-eminent financial centers. The U.K. hosts more headquarters of non-EU firms than Germany, France, Switzerland and the Netherlands put together.

“We believe this outcome has serious implications for the City and many of our clients’ businesses with exposure to the U.K. and the EU,” said Malcolm Sweeting, senior partner of law firm Clifford Chance. “We are working alongside our clients to help them as they anticipate, plan for and manage the challenges the coming political and trade negotiations will bring.”

When Easter comes around, no animal becomes more popular than the bunny. We see it in chocolate form, as stuffed animals, on greeting cards, and various Easter themed items. The bunny has no doubt become a symbol for the Christian holiday, and has also become the “Santa Claus” of Easter, as the pointy-eared friend is said to bring chocolate and toys to children. But where did the bunny originate from? Let’s take a quick look.

teutonic goddess of spring and fertility

Hares and bunnies are said to have appeared in motif art in medieval times, with it being believed that the hare was a hermaphrodite since it was thought to have been capable of reproducing without loss of virginity. This thus led the hare to be associated with the Virgin Mary and appearing in manuscripts and forms of art. It is also stated that the hare was associated with the Teutonic deity Eostra, who was the goddess of spring and fertility. She was one of the many worshiped gods and goddesses in 13th century Germany and her symbol was the rabbit because of the animal’s high reproduction rate. How this all ties into Easter is that spring is known as a time of rebirth and renewal, and the bunny essentially symbolized such ability of giving birth and life. This idea is also why eggs have come into relation with the holiday, as eggs are a sign of birth and fertility.

So we now understand how the bunny became linked with the idea behind Easter’s theme of rebirth, but when did it become a staple in the world of children? Apparently in Germany in 1680, there was a legend published about a bunny laying eggs and then hiding them in a garden – German immigrants brought this story along with them when they immigrated to the United States in the 1700’s. What soon followed was the idea of making nests on Easter for this folktale bunny to lay its eggs into – over time, this idea evolved into today’s well-known tradition of creating Easter baskets, and using these on Easter egg hunts.easter bunny

We hope that you found this bit of history interesting. Sometimes we take tradition and folklore at face value and don’t really question the roots of such symbols, so it’s nice to learn a few things about a holiday and how certain things became associated with it. We wish you all a Happy Easter!
