2015 Surfing Walk of Fame
T ransworld Business' Chad Wiley brings us up to speed on Summer of 2015 in Surf City with..."The Vans US Open of Surfing is returning to the iconic Huntington
Beach Pier this summer. The nine-day event has become the largest action sports festival in the world and will bring together the top athletes in surf, skate, and BMX. All events are free and open to the public.
“Huntington Beach is the perfect stage to bring the local community together with passionate surf, skate and BMX fans to enjoy all the beach lifestyle and surf heritage have to offer,” said James Leitz, senior vice president, IMG.
Huntington Beach, CA (June 29, 2015) – Vans, the original action sports footwear and apparel brand, joins the city of Huntington Beach to present the 2015 Vans US Open of Surf- ing July 25 – August 2. In partnership with the World Surf League (WSL) and event owner and operator IMG, the Vans US Open of Surfing will host the world’s elite in surfing, skateboarding and BMX, bringing premier action sports competition to Surf City this summer. As part of a festival-wide celebration of creative expression, the fan-driven event will also feature artist exhibits and installations, beach activities,
interactive sponsor displays and more. “Nearly 50 years ago, Paul Van Doren opened the first Vans
store just a few miles from the Vans US Open event site, the same place where he met surf legend Duke Kahanamoku and made him one-of-a-kind Vans to celebrate his unique style. It’s an honor to carry forward that legacy of creative expression here in 2015,” said Doug Palladini, Vans’ vice president, general manager of North America. “The Vans family, along with partners IMG, WSL and the City of Huntington Beach, is looking forward to our third straight year of providing action sports and summer fun for thousands of fans within this historic surf community.”
The nine-day event is staged at the famed Hunting- ton Beach Pier and is the largest professional surfing competition and action sports festival in the world. Hosting more than 300 world-class athletes in surf, skate and BMX, the event draws more than half a million locals and fans to this iconic location, and over a million views of its live webcast.
“Huntington Beach is the perfect stage to bring the local community together with passionate surf, skate and BMX fans to enjoy all the beach lifestyle and surf heritage have to offer,” said James Leitz, senior vice president, IMG. “We’re proud to be working with Vans and the WSL for the third year
to stage such an incredible event.” The Open marks a key midseason stop on the World Surf
League Women’s Championship Tour, and a major stop in the Men’s Qualifying Series. In addition to the exciting drama of the pro surf competition, Vans is pleased to bring back the Vans Joel Tudor Duct Tape Invitational, an innovative surf series dedicated to the expressive style and creativity of long-
boarding. A crowd-favorite, the Van Doren In- vitational Skate and BMX
contests, will also return,
bringing the industry’s leading
pro and amateur bowl riders together to compete in the legendary all-cement Vans Pro Bowl, live on the sand. In between competitions, specta- tors are welcome to experience the Van Doren Village, where
families can enjoy movie nights, art exhibitions, athlete and artist autograph sessions and meet-and-greets, interactive photo booths, prize give- aways, and much more.
The 2015 Vans US Open of Surfing will run from July 25 to August 2. All events are free and open to the public. Offi- cial sponsors include Vans, Samsung, GoPro, Jeep, FIAT, F45, Pacifico, PB Teen, G-Shock, and Red Bull."

Huntington Beach, CA –
T he votes have been tallied and six legendary wave riders will once again be forever enshrined in surfing’s history books on July 30, 2015. Through a selection ballot, a host of respected surf industry veterans, former professionals and surf journalists
narrowed down a field of hundreds of candidates to name the six 2015 Surfing Walk of Fame’s honorees in their respective categories – Reno Abellira (Surf Champion), Paul Strauch (Surf Pioneer), Dick Graham (Surf Culture), Sofia Mulanovich (Women of the Year), John Boozer (Local Hero) and David Nuuhiwa Sr. (Honor Roll).
The Surfing Walk of Fame is the only tribunal in surfing to award specific categories as well as require a 10-year margin since the commemorating achievement. This year’s recipients will be cemented alongside past inductees, earning their immortal place in the pavement on the corner of PCH and Main Street, directly across from the famous pier in Surf City USA -- Huntington Beach, California.
"We are celebrating our 22nd year of honoring people into the Surfing Walk of Fame by placing engraved stones in the sidewalk on Main Street and PCH,” said Don MacAl- lister, SWoF Chairman of the Board. “We are pleased to have such a distinguished group
to represent the surfing world this year.” Early bottom turn innovator and “cheater five” inventor Paul Strauch earns the Surf Pi-
oneer induction this year. Born in Hawaii, his timeless style also transferred over into the contest realm where he won the prestigious Makaha Invitational in 1959 as well as the 1966 Hawaii state titles.
Legendary Hawaiian surfer/shaper Reno Abellira receives the Surf Champion nod. With countless results on the early world pro circuit as well as numerous North Shore podiums, perhaps Abellira’s biggest victory came at thundering Waimea Bay as he topped Jeff Hak-
man to win the 1974 Smirnoff Pro. The always-colorful Surf Culture plaque will be awarded to Surfing Magazine cofounder
Dick Graham. After a lengthy journalism career than included writing, photography and editing, Graham also contributed to the evolution of the surf industry with stints at Light- ning Bolt and Hang Ten beachwear.
The Woman of the Year honor will be presented to Peru’s Sofia Mulanovich, South

Kate and Sarah. If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately
refer to each other as Fat Boy, Bubba and Wild-
man.
Mike, Dave and John will each throw in $20, even
though it's only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.
When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket
calculators...YEP!!!
BATHROOMS A man has six items in
his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of
soap, and a towel.
The average number of items in the typical
woman's bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify more than 20
of these items.

There's no use in two people remembering the
same thing!
Why Men Are Never Depressed
A guy walked into a crowded bar, waving his Colt pistol and yelled, "I have a .45 Colt with an eight shot clip and I want to know who's been
having an affair my wife?" A voice from the back of the room
called out... "You'll need more ammo!”
Daniel Snyder, owner of the NFL Redskins, has an- nounced that the team is dropping the word
"Washington" from the team name and will henceforth be simply known as "The Redskins".
It was reported that he finds that the word 'Wash- ington' imparts a negative image of corruption, cheat- ing, and lying, and is not a fitting role model for young fans of football.
Interestingly enough, there were several US Army Tomahawk missiles near an Apache Helicopter during the press conference.
POCAHONTAS, PLEASE
PASS THE CORN!
Did you ever wonder why earrings became so popular with
men? A man is at work one day when he
notices that his coworker is wearing an earring .The man knows his coworker to be a normally conservative fellow and is curious about his sud- den change in "fashion sense."
The man walks up to him and says, "I didn't know you were into
earrings." "Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring,"
he replies sheepishly. His friend falls silent for a few minutes,
but then his curiosity prods him to ask,
"So, how long have you been wearing
one?" "Ever since my wife found
it in my truck." I always won- dered how this trend got started... (Now I Know!)
I n a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball, the
fortune teller delivered grave
news: "There's no easy way to tell you this, so I'll just be blunt. Prepare yourself to be a widower. Your wife will die a violent and horrible death this year."
Visibly shaken, the

Happenings I'd like to wish a belated Happy Birthday
to Huntington Beach's First Female For- mer Mayor Norma Brandel-Gibbs who turned 90.
A very Happy Birthday to the following
people: Huntington Beach Environmental- ist Steve Engel, Huntington Beach Au- thor/Kiwanis Club Member Mike Heywood, Huntington Beach Former Mayor Dave Garofalo and Former Hunt- ington Beach Resident Bill Borden.
Huntington Beach City Council Person
Barbara Delgleize asked me to share this with You: The vote was 7-0 on the Peters Landing & Don the Beachcomber’s from any zoning changes and it will not be included in the General Plan Update.
Huntington Beach Assistant City Manager
Ken Domer Said Recently: The straw votes provide a direction for Staff in which to bring back an item for City Council consideration at a future meeting. Relative to a previous city council meeting, the votes will allow staff to package an item for City Council consideration that includes disclosing offers/counteroffers after being rejected as well as disclosing private communications between an interested party (ex, a union repre- sentative) and a Council Member related to con- tract negotiations, among other transparency items. The dis- cussion that referenced Newport Beach's method" is related to how to implement transparency measures. The Council can do so through an Ordinance, by Resolution, or by policy direction, as the Newport Beach City Council did (as opposed to Costa Mesa which did it by Ordinance). Due to uncertainty with legal issues and pending legis- lation, the understanding is that we will bring back transparency items which can be implemented through Council policy at this time. Doing it this way does not preclude the Council from doing it by Resolution or Ordinance in the future.
Huntington Beach Albertsons at Seacliff
Store Director Steve Luciano Says: You are asking for a quote from me about my store and how proud I am of the store and my people, here it is. " It is an honor being the Store Director of such a Great Store in a Great Town with an incredible group of associates. Being selected as one of the best stores to shop at in Orange County just solidifies that we have a Great Team as well as Selection of products making this store the one stop shop for your shopping experience."

EDITORIAL
B oria Sax is just interesting...and this piece is historical..."After the two sides had been nearly equal for most of the day at the Battle
of Waterloo, Napoleon ordered his elite Imperial Guard to charge, and, shortly afterward, the French front abruptly collapsed, with a completeness that was unprecedented on any side in the Napoleonic Wars and perhaps in the preceding centuries. Ac- cording to several witnesses, cries of "Sauve qui
peut!" ("Save yourself who can.") went through the French army. For those who believed that some sort of Providence was revealed through history, the dra- matic end seemed to signal a turning point, whether it offered a prosperous future or tragic grandeur. The 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo is to be commemorated on June 18th. The remem-
brances are mostly a matter of nostalgia, focusing on pageantry, uniforms, ceremony, and theater, as well as on small details of the conflict. We are so far from the
period that today just about everyone can find something to be wistful about.
There will be a reenactment of the
battle, perhaps more elaborate than any such display before,
but we should not let a magnificent specta- cle distract us from asking probing questions. Why did the French front disinte- grate in such an unpar- alleled way? The charge of the Imperial Guard was clearly a fi- asco, but there have
been plenty of other disastrous assaults in history, such as Pickett's Charge at Gettysburg in the American Civil War or the English Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava in the Crimean War. Neither of those was followed by a breakdown of discipline similar to that of the French at Waterloo. The ex-
planation must be, at least in part, because, after over a decade and a half of fighting for abstractions such as "glory" (which seemed increasingly hollow amid repeated scenes of carnage), the soldiers were
bone-weary.
Not since the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) had a Continental army battled continuously for so long a time, and soldiers of the early seventeenth century were notorious for flouting the wishes of their offi- cers. Napoleon's men had fought two intense yet in- decisive battles on the previous day, and broke down under the accumulation of psychological and
physical stress. Historians have at times claimed that an army of seasoned veterans was an advantage for Napoleon at the start of the Battle of Waterloo,
but it may have been a fatal handicap instead. Many, including commanders such as Marshal Ney and even Napoleon himself, were probably far more traumatized, and more erratic, than anybody real- ized at the time. A warning precedent, albeit an ironic one, was how the army had deserted Louis XVIII for Napoleon a few months before. They were, to put it bluntly, sick and tired of the very
things that people are commemorating now.
But the victors at Waterloo, Wellington very much included, had good reason to re- tain a legend of Napoleon, since the presence of a formi- dable adversary added to their achievement. A knight errant, after all, requires a dragon to slay. As a result, the reality of the battle was concealed by propaganda from both parties. People can become nostalgic about anything, including the eras of brutal conflicts, plagues, natural catastro- phes, and ruthless dictator- ships. They need only remember very selectively and then find, or else imag- ine, some redeeming quality such as solidarity or the opportunity for heroism. War, especially, blends experience and fantasy in the most seductive way, by means of decorations, cos- tumes, songs, rituals, and colorful tales. When wars
are in progress, people wish fervently for them to end, but, when they are over, people look back at them with a paradoxical affection. There cannot be much harm in wishing the days of Waterloo were
back, since that can never come about, but we should try not to lose perspective. Let us, then, indulge ourselves by "remembering" Waterloo for a week, but then forget it in the years to come."

Keegan, who is from New Jersey, was on a weekend fishing trip with his dad when he hooked a 600- pound white sturgeon just hours into the outing.
The Globe and Mail reports it took Keegan nearly 2 hours to reel in the 10-foot beast with the help of his dad and their fishing guide. Officials guessed it was 75 years old based on its size.
Great River Fishing Adventures posted video of the 4-ft tall, 80-pound American releasing his catch for the next lucky kid.
The white sturgeon are the largest freshwater fish in North America and known for growing as long as 20 ft. and weighing around 1,800 lbs!
HOLY STURGEON Yahoo, Ms. Mayer MAKERS Team made their mark with this
dollar and cents evaluation..."Equal pay for equal work has been an ongoing battle for decades. However, it seems that the gender gap between female and male CEOs is beginning to narrow.
So far, 21 out of 22 in the Standard & Poor’s 500 have reported their compensation, reports USA Today Money. Among the list is Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer who is the highest paid female CEO this fiscal year, earning $42 million. Her salary places her seventh among all current CEOs."
R ecently, the Hunting- ton Beach Police De- partment participated
in the Special Olympics Torch run by taking the Torch from the Fountain Valley Police Department at Beach Blvd. and Talbert Ave. and running 12 miles to PCH and Ander- son St. where the Torch was handed off to the Seal Beach Police Department.
The Torch continued on its way to California State, Long Beach for the lighting of the “Flame of Hope,” which marks the beginning of the
Summer Games. The Torch Run is an annual event requir- ing more than 3,500 runners from over 300 police agen- cies to carry the Special Olympics Torch. All department personnel who participated in this run donated their time. The flame trav- eled about 1,500 miles, through 200 Southern Cal- ifornia cities before making its way to the Summer Games Opening Ceremony at California State University, Long Beach held last weekend.

Do Opposites Attract

A lmost every group of MLB employees seems to think they're underpaid. In the past two years the league has
been besieged by complaints and/or lawsuits from clubhouse attendants, administrative workers, interns, “volunteers,” and Minor League players. They all complain that MLB violates the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) along with state wage and hour laws by failing to pay minimum wage and overtime.
Now, scouts have jumped on the litigation bandwagon. Two weeks ago former Kansas City Royals scout Jordan Wyckoff filed a class action lawsuit
claiming that many MLB scouts make less than minimum wage and aren’t
properly compensated for overtime work. In addition to his FLSA argument, Wyckoff also alleges that MLB teams conspire to keep scouts’ wages de-
pressed in violation of state and federal antitrust laws.
Wyckoff claims he was paid $15,000 a year as a part time scout for the Roy- als, scouring the northeast- ern part of the country for MLB prospects. During
that time he often worked 50-60 hours per week, effectively earning less than $5 per hour, substantially less than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
If the Wyckoff case sounds like a broken record, perhaps the record is indeed broken, i.e., MLB consistently squeezes the folks it can. Before Marvin Miller
arrived on the baseball scene in the mid-‘60’s, MLB treated its players like serfs. The players had no union to protect them and in most cases teams even refused to deal with agents, leaving the players at a distinct disadvantage when dealing with management.
That all changed after 1966 when Miller became executive director of the players’ union. It became much more difficult to squeeze the players, so much so that the league finally gave up after the disastrous 1994 strike almost rele- gated the sport to an afterthought. MLB decided to treat the players like partners rather than chattel and, contrary to the owners’ concerns, the game has flourished ever since.
Alas, MLB execs don’t have to treat other employees like partners because none of them, save for MLB umpires, are represented by a union. That seems to be the common denominator between employees who are well treated and those who aren’t, which is a sad commentary on management-employee rela- tions. Shouldn’t non-union employees be treated in a decent, fair and ethical manner and in accordance with federal and state laws without having to resort to the courts?
Count on MLB to raise the standard defenses, including that it’s exempt from FLSA because it’s a seasonal business and that Wyckoff was a salaried em-
ployee and therefore not entitled to overtime pay. We won’t know the outcome of the Wyckoff case for some time. What isn’t in doubt is that many MLB employees believe they are mistreated. With so much smoke, there may indeed
be a fire.

Most water districts achieved double digit cuts in water conservation, but
some communities still have work to do to meet state goals.
P aige Austin (Patch Staff squeezed every drop of info out of this story she could and filled a bucket with important kudos for us and out neighbors..."All of Orange
County’s water districts posted double- digit gains in water conservation compared to May 2013, the State Water Re- sources Control Board reported today.
The robust improvement in conservation follows a statewide trend last month during the drought, which officials say was the best month for reducing water consumption.
Across California water use was down 28.9 percent in May.
Gov. Jerry Brown has called for an over- all 25 percent drop in water use over 2013 totals because of the continuing drought, though individual water suppliers have been assigned varying cutback targets.
“The numbers tell us that more Californians are stepping
up to help make their communities more water secure, which is welcome news in the face of this dire drought,” said State Water Board Chair Felicia Marcus.
“That said, we need all Californians to step up -- and keep it up -- as if we don’t know when it will rain and snow again, because we don’t,” she said. “If the drought continues beyond this year, we’ll all be glad we did.”
The Yorba Linda Water District in Pla- centia posted the best rate as it reduced water consumption by 35 percent over
May 2013. Other city and water district results for May in the region,
according to water board data:
* Garden Grove, 24 percent;
* Golden State Water Company West Orange, 24 percent;
* Anaheim, 25 percent;
* Westminster, 19 percent;
* La Habra Public Works, 29 percent;
-- Buena Park, 30 percent;
* Huntington Beach, 22 percent;
* San Clemente, 25 percent;
* Laguna Beach County Water District, 20 percent;
* Moulton Niguel Water District, 28 percent;
* Fullerton, 25 percent;
* San Juan Capistrano, 26 percent;
* Trabuco Canyon Water District, 18 percent;
* Newport Beach, 22 percent;

Stars Who Fell Off Your Radar
They keep a lower profile these days and you may associate them
with another time, but ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on
DORIS DAY
Although she's stayed out of the limelight for 45 years, Doris Day still holds the title of the biggest female box-
office draw in Hollywood history. She shared top billing with stars like James Stewart and Cary Grant (but turned down an offer to play Mrs. Robinson in "The Graduate") and recorded 20 albums. Now 90, Day enjoys a "que sera sera" life in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif., where she has adopted many pets and devotes herself to animal rights.Bobby Vin- ton
He looked and sounded great in "Goodfellas"—but that was actually Bobby Vinton's son Robbie. Not that the original Polish Prince is unable to hold his own. From 1962 to 1972, he had more No. 1 hits than any other male solo artist. Today, at 79, he lives on Florida's Gulf Coast with his wife, Dolly. They've been married since 1962, the year Vinton recorded "Roses Are Red (My Love)," his first single.

BEAUTIFUL & HAUNTING A
bout six miles from Maas- tricht, in the Netherlands, lie
buried 8,301 American soldiers who died in "Operation Market Garden" in the battles to liberate Hol- land in the fall/winter of 1944.
Every one of the men buried in the cemetery, as well as those in the Cana- dian and British military cemeteries, has been adopted by a Dutch family who mind the grave, decorate it, and keep alive the memory of the soldier they have adopted. It is even the custom to keep a portrait of "their" American soldier in a place of honor in their home.
Annually, on "Liberation Day," memorial services are held for "the men who died to liberate Hol- land." The day concludes with a concert. The final piece is always "Il Silenzio," a memorial piece commissioned by the Dutch and first played in 1965 on the 20th an-
niversary of Holland's liberation. It has been the concluding piece of the memorial concert ever since.
This year the soloist was a 13-year- old Dutch girl, Melissa Venema,
backed by André Rieu and his orchestra (the Royal Orchestra of the
Netherlands). This beautiful concert piece is based upon the original ver- sion of taps and was composed by Ital- ian composer Nino Rossi.
ere Is Enough Dough To Be Made Rick Aristotle Munarriz
The hottest trend in fast casual is no longer
burritos, freshly baked sandwiches or even gour- met burgers. The key to fast growth in the other- wise stagnant restaurant industry is pizza.
Yes, pizza. Unlike the traditional
pizzerias that are best known for the quick deliv- eries of large pies, the fast- casual movement is led by chains that assemble individual-sized pizzas as they're ordered, firing them up in commercial ovens that bake up the cus- tomized pies in minutes.
Nation's Restaurant News recently singled out some of the rising stars of fast-casual pizza. They are small regional chains at the moment. There's Fired Pie in Arizona, Blast 825 in California and &pizza in the Washington, D.C., area.
The movement is strong, and even the biggest players are still in their infancy.
Nation's Restaurant News points out that Pasadena- based Blaze Pizza was the first chain to hit 50 units last year, but two other concepts -- Pieology and Mod Pizza -- are expected to surpass 100 locations by the end of this year.
Things are moving pretty fast in this space and even the big boys are start- ing to pay attention.
THERE'S DOUGH TO BE MADE
Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) hopped on the fast- casual craze early with its namesake burrito chain, and two years ago it made a tactical investment in Pizzeria Locale. It tweaked the concept by incorporat- ing the assembly-line ordering process that has made Chipotle so popular, letting folks pick out individual toppings for the 11- inch pies that are then
baked up in turbo ovens that deliver the goods in
just two minutes. Buffalo Wild Wings
(BWLD) has also taken a minority stake in Piz- zaRev, another fast-casual concept. Customers order artisanal pizzas that are
built as they're ordered and they're ready to eat after a three-minute stint in the oven.
Some of the chains that don't have affiliations with
public companies are also well connected. Fired Pie was started by regional executives from California Pizza Kitchen and &pizza has Ruby Tuesday's (RT) founder as its chairman of
the board. With privately held
chains growing quickly and big money behind some of the publicly traded operators, it's a safe
bet that vacant stand-alone buildings and strip mall locations will be easy sells for this new breed of
pizzeria. One would think that the new niche's success would come at the expense of traditional chains, but that hasn't been the case so far. Analysts see revenue at Papa John's (PZZA) and Domino's (DPZ) growing at 5 and 9
percent, respectively, this year. Then again, they have also embraced the trend by adding fancier fare to compete with changing dining prefer- ences.
The fast-casual pizza trend is heating up, and just like the pies themselves, it's heating up in a hurry.

way to recycle my old and/or unwanted paint,
primer and stains ~ Kim Beeler, Lake Oswego, OR
Has one of the many popular shows on HGTV in- spired you to reno- vate your own home? If so, you’re not alone! Home renovations have
been on the rise the last few years in the U.S. and Canada, which can mean lots of leftover paint. Extra
paint can last for years when properly sealed and stored away from extreme heat and cold, and if unneeded, can be donated to organizations like Habitat for Humanity and Keep America Beautiful. But if paint can no longer be used, what are some safe, environmentally-responsible ways to dispose of it?
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that about 10 percent of the house paint pur- chased in the United States each year—about 65 to 69 million gallons—is discarded. Leftover and unus- able paint wastes causes pollution when disposed of improperly, the EPA warns. Before you can decide how to dispose of old paint, you'll need to determine what kind of paint it is. There are two types of paint: oil-based and latex; and regulations on disposal of
each type of paint vary by location. In some areas, latex paint can be thrown out with
the trash as long as it is completely dried. Keep in mind that some household waste haulers may not pick up latex paint even if it is completely dried, so always check with your local waste disposal service provider on rules and regulations applicable to your area.
Oil-based paints, as well as paint thinners and other paint solvents, are considered hazardous household waste (HHW) and are typically dis-
posed of at HHW facili- ties. While many communities across the country will hold annual or semi-annual HHW collection days to make
paint disposal easy for local residents, the new
non-profit Paint- Care is allowing residents of Cali- fornia, Connecti- cut, Rhode Island,
Oregon, Minnesota and Vermont to have convenient disposal of house paint, primers, stains, sealers and clear coatings year-round. There is no charge for dropping off paint at a PaintCare drop-off site, and Paintcare’s site locator (available on their website and app) allows residents of applicable states to quickly find their closest drop-off location. PaintCare locations can be found at select Sherwin-Williams, True Value, Ace Hardware and other retailers.
“Retailer support of the PaintCare program is not only good business practice, but also an extension of good customer service,” says Scott Cassel, Chief Ex-
ecutive Officer of the Product Stewardship Institute, Inc., a nonprofit that in partnership with the paint industry, led the national dialogue that laid the founda- tion for the PaintCare program. “By providing paint drop-off locations, retailers not only encourage more foot traffic, but they also offer an important kind of community service that addresses both environmental
protection and convenience.” PaintCare manages the leftover paint it receives ac-
cording to a policy of “highest, best use.” Their goal is to recycle as much as possible. Most of the oil-
based paint is taken to a cement plant where it is blended into a fuel and burned to recover the energy value. Latex paint that is not rusty, molding or spoiled is sent to recycling companies and reprocessed into new paint. Some paint that the non-profit receives is nearly new and in excellent condition, and is given away at swap shops or to charitable organizations. Paintcare plans to expand its locations into Colorado in July of 2015, Maine in August of 2015 and the Dis- trict of Columbia in January of 2016.

A Great Read For All If you will take the time to read these. I promise
you'll come away with an enlightened perspective. The subjects covered affect us all on a daily basis: They're written by the late Andy Rooney (ex-
60 Minutes USA), a man who had the gift of saying so much with so few words. Enjoy...
I've learned... That the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.
I've learned... That when you're in love, it shows. I've learned... That just one person saying to me,
'You've made my day!' makes my day. I've learned... That having a child fall asleep in
your arms is one of the most peaceful feelings in the world.
I've learned... That being kind is more important than being right.
I've learned... That you should never say no to a gift from a child.
I've learned... That I can always pray for someone when I don't have the strength to help him in some
other way. I've learned... That no matter how serious your life
requires you to be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.
I've learned... That sometimes all a person needs is a hand to hold and a heart to understand.
I've learned... That simple walks with my father around the block on summer nights when I was a child did wonders for me as an adult.
I've learned... That life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.
I've learned... That money doesn't buy class. I've learned... That it's those small daily happen-
ings that make life so spectacular. I've learned... That under everyone's hard shell is
someone who wants to be appreciated and loved. I've learned... That to ignore the facts does not
change the facts. I've learned... That when you plan to get even with
someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you.
I've learned... That love, not time, heals all wounds.
I've learned... That the easiest way for me to grow as a person is to surround myself with people smarter than I am .
I've learned... That everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.
I've learned... That no one is perfect until you fall
in love with them. I've learned... That life is tough, but I'm tougher. I've learned... That opportunities are never lost;
someone will take the ones you miss. I've learned... That when you harbour bitterness,
happiness will dock elsewhere. I've learned... That I wish I could have told my
Mom that I love her one more time before she passed away.
I've learned... That one should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them.
I've learned... That a smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.
I've learned... That when your newly born grand- child holds your little finger in his little fist, that you're hooked for life
I've learned... That everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it.
I've learned... That the less time I have to work with, the more things I get done.
To all of you... Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence.
It's National Friendship Week. Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND... HAPPY FRIENDSHIP WEEK TO YOU!!!!!! YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I AM HONORED!

T he worldwide automotive industry has
been enjoying a period of relatively strong growth and profitability, and
annual sales have reached prerecession levels in some regions. Yet considerable uncertainty about the future remains.
The most immediate challenge is the un- evenness of global markets. Auto industry executives and experts tend to be optimistic about the U.S. market, forecasting annualized sales in North America in the near term of a relatively robust 16 million cars, up from only 13 million in 2008. However, the out- look in Europe is much weaker as the region is emerging fitfully from a six-year sales slump. And sales have plunged in Russia and South America — they were down by about 25 percent and 15 percent, respectively, in August 2014 year-over-year. Meanwhile, the Indian market’s performance has been incon- sistent. And growth in China — the world’s largest vehicle market — has slowed, even though investments by most original equip- ment manufacturers (OEMs), which are bet- ting big on future demand, continue to ramp up. Reacting strategically to these demand shifts will be an absolute priority for industry leaders in 2015.
Against this backdrop of macroeconomic uncertainty, we believe major transitions are under way that will transform auto manufac- turing over the next 10 years. OEMs, suppliers, and dealers not only must navigate through these changes in the short term to build market share and profitability — they also should take steps now to position themselves for success in the next decade.
WH T’S DRIVING CH NGE
