The Power of Now
Wednesday, April 30, 2014
Today, LDF expressed deep disappointment over the Senate’s failure to vote on the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2013, S. 460. This legislation would have raised the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $10.10 in three increments by 2016, and it would have adjusted the minimum wage to keep pace with the rising cost of living. The Senate failed to secure enough votes necessary to consider the legislation, meaning that it can try again in the near future.
In a letter to the Senate supporting the legislation, LDF called the minimum wage a “vital civil rights issue.” LDF discussed its longstanding work to promote economic justice, particularly in the employment arena. Due to decades of institutionalized job segregation and discrimination, people of color still disproportionately hold minimum wage jobs. Increasing the minimum wage to the amount specified would increase the total combined wages of people of color by $16.1 billion.
LDF also told Congress how an increase of the minimum wage would help alleviate poverty within communities of color. In 2011, more than a third of African-American workers did not earn enough hourly wages to lift a family of four out of poverty. If the minimum wage were raised, six million workers would be lifted out of poverty, and 60 percent of them would be people of color.
“While our nation celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which banned racial discrimination in employment, the realization of such rights without fully obtaining the resources to actualize them can only be considered a partial victory. In order to wholly achieve these gains, we must continue to support measures that will expand the economic opportunities for people of color.”

TfL completes contract with Riverlinx consortium to design, build, finance and maintain Silvertown Tunnel
Transport for London (TfL) has completed the contract for the Riverlinx consortium, comprising of Aberdeen Standard Investments, BAM PPP PGGM, Cintra, Macquarie Capital and SK E&C, to build the Silvertown Tunnel - a new river crossing under the Thames in east London.
In May 2018, following a six-month public enquiry, the Department for Transport granted the Silvertown Tunnel project a Development Consent Order (DCO). This is the formal process by which the Government gives approval of a development categorised as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP).
Following a competitive procurement process, the consortium have been awarded a Design, Build, Finance and Maintain contract for the construction and maintenance of the tunnel, which is set to be open in 2025. Payments from TfL to the consortium will only start once the tunnel is open and available for use. TfL will also be able to reduce payments should the tunnel not meet certain key standards, such as availability for use by traffic and physical condition.
Once the Silvertown Tunnel opens, vehicles will be required to pay a user charge for using either the Blackwall or the Silvertown Tunnel. This user charge, which will be used to pay for the construction and maintenance of the tunnel, is a legal requirement as part of the planning approvals and therefore will need to be implemented when the tunnel opens. Any surplus from the revenue generated via the user charge will be reinvested into public transport across London. The exact charge levels for various types of vehicles using the tunnel will be decided closer to the opening date.
The planned user charge at both the new tunnel and the existing Blackwall tunnel will ensure overall traffic volumes and associated carbon emissions do not increase. At locations where TfL's air quality modelling showed that there may be a small localised impact, mitigation will be delivered further to ensure any increase is minimised. Both tunnels and the surrounding area will also fall within the Ultra Low Emission Zone from October 2021. In line with the commitments enshrined in the DCO, TfL will also undertake further modelling, monitoring and, if required, appropriate mitigation of the effects of the scheme to ensure the outcomes are not materially worse than we forecast in our Environmental Statement.
Stuart Harvey, Director of Major Projects at Transport for London said: "Following detailed discussions, we have now completed the contract for the Riverlinx consortium to design, build, finance and maintain the Silvertown Tunnel. Once open in 2025, the tunnel will provide new cross-river bus routes in east London and during its construction we will work tirelessly to ensure that any disruption to local residents or businesses is kept to an absolute minimum."
During construction, both the consortium and TfL are committed to ensuring that the majority of construction material is transported by river, that all on-site construction machinery meets the Mayor's Non-Road Mobile Machinery Low Emission Zone Standards, and that any vehicles working on the scheme are Euro VI and comply with the Mayor's Direct Vision Standard. TfL is also legally committed, as part of the wider DCO process, to deliver a wide range of improvements and measures to reduce the impact of the new tunnel and support the wider local area. These include:
- £1m worth of support to local businesses will be provided to help them adapt to the user charge when the Silvertown Tunnel is operational. This could include helping businesses with staff travel planning and delivery support, or funding potential infrastructure such as cycle racks and electric vehicle charging points.
- Extensive monitoring, particularly around air quality, will be undertaken both before and after the opening of the tunnel. Regular reports will be published online and if readings suggest impacts are worse than originally anticipated, TfL will review what further actions could be implemented to address them.
- A user-charging discount to specifically help low-income working residents in the host boroughs of Greenwich, Newham and Tower Hamlets. This would take a similar form to the existing TfL Bus & Tram Travelcard, which offers a 50 per cent discount on public transport for those in receipt of certain state benefits. Free account registration for the road user charge for local residents in the host boroughs for the first year. Residents and businesses who register as account holders would pay the lowest charges possible for all journeys, and would be protected from the risk of inadvertently incurring penalty charges through forgetting to pay the relevant charge.
- £2m in bus concessions for local residents to help promote the new cross-river bus services which will run through the tunnel, as well as supporting local behavioural change away from unnecessary private car use. TfL will also enhance river crossing facilities for cyclists and pedestrians across the local area.
- The tunnel will also improve cross-river public transport connections, with around 37 buses an hour during peak periods in each direction using the tunnel, including the current six single-decker buses per hour which run through the Blackwall Tunnel. All of the new double-decker buses that use the Silvertown Tunnel are expected to be zero-emission from launch. These routes will link places such as Stratford and Canary Wharf to Eltham, Grove Park and Charlton, unlocking new journey options and supporting wider regeneration across the Greenwich Peninsula and Royal Docks.
- The project will also deliver a range of improvements in the areas around the tunnel on both sides of the river, including additional noise barriers along the approach roads and new green spaces around the tunnel entrances which will deliver a net increase in biodiversity throughout the area. Walking and cycling upgrades will also be delivered in close consultation with local residents and active travel campaigners.

Notes to editors
Images of what the Silvertown Tunnel will look like once completed can be found here: www.tfl.gov.uk/silvertown-tunnel
Ahead of the six month public enquiry as part of the planning process for the Silvertown Tunnel, three public consultations were carried out into the proposed crossing.
As part of the planning permission to construct the Silvertown Tunnel, TfL provided evidence on the various assessments that had been carried out on options to reduce congestion, improve air quality and enhance public transport in the area. These included just introducing a user charge to the Blackwall Tunnel, alternative designs for the tunnel and whether a bridge or alternative crossing was preferable - https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/wp-content/ipc/uploads/projects/TR010021/TR010021-001609-TfL%208.119%20Applicants%20Response%20on%20Option%20Appraisal%20(Five%20Case)%20from%20ISH%2028%20March%202017.pdf
In May 2018, the Department for Transport granted the Silvertown Tunnel project a Development Consent Order (DCO), which is the formal process by which the Government approves a development categorised as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP). More information on the public examination into the Silvertown Tunnel can be found here -https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/projects/london/silvertown-tunnel/
Over the last 20 years, TfL has developed significant experience in how to manage similar contracts, which have successfully helped deliver extensions to the Docklands Light Railway. Funding the project this way not only shifts financial risks onto the private sector, but also incentivises them to deliver the scheme as efficiently as possible. It also reflects the fact that TfL receives no ongoing investment for roads from the Government - and that from 2021, the £500m Vehicle Excise Duty paid by Londoners and collected by central Government will nearly all be invested in roads outside the capital. This, along with the fact that TfL's funding arrangements with Government are currently only certain until March 2021, means it has no dedicated income stream to pay for capital roads projects like this.
With congestion and air quality around the Blackwall Tunnel predicted to get worse in the coming years as London's population grows, the Silvertown Tunnel, along with the extended Ultra Low Emission Zone, are vital to provide a more reliable crossing, as well as ensuring goods and services can continue to move around London. Population and traffic growth will be particularly notable in this area of London, owing to the major developments underway and planned on Greenwich Peninsula and at the Royal Docks, Stratford and Barking Riverside.
All contractors working for the Riverlinx consortium will also be required to deliver a range of measures to help reduce construction impacts, including:
- Developing an extensive Community Engagement Plan, describing how it will keep the local community informed prior to and throughout the works;
- Creating local apprenticeships, job starts and educational opportunities throughout the length of the construction;
- A target to have at least 25 per cent of the construction team working on the crossing recruited locally.
Since permission for the tunnel was officially granted last year, TfL has worked with landowners to agree details of land acquisitions and has now begun discussions with local boroughs and stakeholders on construction logistics plans and access requirements for residents, visitors and local businesses. These will continue ahead of initial construction starting later this year and both the consortium and TfL will look to regularly update on construction progress and mitigation throughout the delivery of the project. TfL will also engage with local residents and stakeholders to further explain the range of measures being taken to mitigate environmental impact
The delivery of the Silvertown Tunnel is included in the Mayor's Transport Strategy and forms part of the Mayor's wider plans for sustainable river crossings across the Thames - https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/about-tfl/how-we-work/planning-for-the-future/new-river-crossings-for-london
In 2018, TfL reviewed its previously provided air quality impact assessment data in view of the UK Air Quality Plan and confirmed to the DfT and planning inspectorate that the Government's new air quality plan does not change the conclusions of the air quality assessment supporting the application. Furthermore, TfL's assessment on air quality was designed to be conservative, meaning that predicted air quality levels are likely to be better than those previously modelled - https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/wp-content/ipc/uploads/projects/TR010021/TR010021-002203-Applicant%20Response%20-%20Updated%20Air%20Quality%20Assessment.pdf
The footnotes to the 2018 Autumn Budget Statement regarding Private Finance (PF2) disapplied new rules to devolved administrations, such as Transport for London, and therefore has no implications for the Silvertown Tunnel proposals.
TfL is defending a legal challenge by Silver Thames Connect (STC), the reserve bidder for the Silvertown Tunnel project, in relation to the procurement process.

It’s been a long time. Years. A certain period of time in your life when the weather was just winter or summer. Nothing in between, just one or the other. We were either going to school or we were out for the summer, and as kids that was all we knew. As we got older, we started to notice the difference in the seasons and that there was actually a clock on the wall. Life was going on around us and we were taking in the view beyond the grasshoppers, mud puddles and those really straight sticks you would find every so often that you couldn’t stand to leave behind. We were growing up.
All of a sudden life became a little bigger. Where you sat in the car became somewhat of a status symbol. Back seat – a friend, front seat passenger side – good friend, driver seat – popular with your friends, and sitting in the middle of the front seat – girlfriend. At this stage we were just trying to figure out what we were going to do next Saturday night, not what we were going to do with the rest of our lives. We looked forward to the weekends for reasons other than getting caught up on yard work. Motivation by recreation.
But we keep getting older and that clock on the wall keeps ticking. It’s funny, as kids we didn’t notice the clock on the wall and time literally stood still. Now the clock is such a big part of who we are and what we do, it demands our attention. Like it or not, it’s ticking. But as young adults we were starting to realize that there was something bigger coming down the pike.
I’ve ridden motorcycles for a lot of years and just like my friends who played sports in school, I found a sport that I connected with. Somewhere in the middle of White City Kansas as I was riding a wheelie through one of those mud puddles, it should have hit me then that this is what I could be doing for a living. At seventeen, having the 8-track stereo in your car and enough money for pizza and a movie with your girlfriend was the depth of my focus, not a career in the motorcycle business. Looking back there were a couple of things I would have focused on more and that could have directly changed my life.
The winding road of life can take you to places you never dreamed of. Sometimes it’s the long way around and sometimes it was the obvious route that our stubborn, teenage pride or angst ignored. Either way, the old saying “it’s not the destination, it’s the journey” holds true. So here I am, fifty years old and working in the motorcycle business, motivated by one of the things I enjoy doing. The clock is still ticking and I’m still intrigued by a really straight stick when I see one, but I’ve learned to leave it on the ground. I’m riding and writing about motorcycles and my life of growing up in a small town in hopes that someone will find a little humor in it. It has taken a few years but it has finally dawned on me that life is as big as you make it. And I’m in the driver’s seat!

Love the post! I read a book recently, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, which made me want a bike of my own, and now this – I think the universe is trying to tell me something.
Thanks for reading my stuff! I will say in 1974 my life took a turn when I started riding motorcycles. Yours will too!
“…those really straight sticks you would find every so often that you couldn’t stand to leave behind…” This is just such a compelling visual. For me it was pretty rocks – I’d always find at least ONE in the pea-gravel driveway of a house I passed daily on my way home from elementary school. And couldn’t stand to leave them behind. LOL Yes, it’s a little easier these days to leave something in place for others to enjoy – I think that’s because we understand that things have context. We can look and realize it’s the whole driveway that’s cool, not just one rock… so leave it for someone else to notice and appreciate if they can. Really enjoyed this post.

The Sukhoi SuperJet which crashed into Mount Salak, killing all 45 people on board, had experienced no technical problems and was in full compliance with international rules.
The judgement came from leading aviation figures as a full investigation into the cause of the crash gets underway.
Mikhail Pogosyan, United Aircraft Corporation head, said: "There had been no technical problems with the aircraft until the moment of the catastrophe. This is confirmed by the fact that its first flight in Indonesia was carried out perfectly."
Suggestions that pilot error is the cause of the crash continue to mount, with Russian newspaper Izvestia claiming that the pilots could have ignored or turned off the aircraft's Terrain Warning and Awareness System, which would have alerted them to the approaching mountain.
Russia acting Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin echoed those sentiments, saying that experts believe human factors were the most probably cause of the crash.
"Experts say that all equipment functioned smoothly. In other words, it could be some kind of a human error," added Rogozin.
Studies of the crash scene, conducted by both Indonesian and Russian experts, are underway, but Pogosyan confirmed that the true cause of the crash will only be uncovered once information from the airliner's flight data recorders is analysed.
The 45 passengers killed in the crash include journalists, pilots and engineers from Sukhoi, as well as officials from Indonesian carriers.

The QIAsure Methylation Test is intended to be used as a triage test for women with a positive HPV DNA test or for women with ASC-US cytology to identify those women who need to be referred for colposcopy.
The QIAsure Methylation Test is a multiplex real-time methylation specific PCR-based (qMSP) assay that detects hyper methylation of 2 disease related marker genes, FAM19A4 and mir124-2, to distinguish women with cervical (pre)cancer. The test specifically detects women with a cancer-like methylation profile, which are indicative for the women who have a short-term high risk for progression to cervical cancer.
The QIAsure Methylation test is a rebrand of the Precursor-M+.
After having identified women at risk by a positive HPV test, the majority of these women (~80-90%) will clear the HPV infection by their immune system and thus not develop cervical (pre)cancer. However, the smaller group of HPV positive women, who develop (pre)cancerous lesions need to be filtered out – this is called triage – by a test that identifies the women with a progressive lesion profile developing into (pre) cancer.
Therefore methylation marker based assays are an promising resolution while they comply with all of the above
Therefore a fully molecular test workflow is highly advantageous
A QIAsure triage solution improves clinical output while decreasing costs

|Clinical sensitivity CIN3+||78.6%|

When immigrants Eliza and Mads Peterson purchased a 100-acre plot of land on the valley floor in Napa in 1914, they never expected it to become their family’s legacy for generations to come. After transforming their beloved Zinfandel vines into a prune orchard during Prohibition, the estate, with the assistance of fourth-generation workers, made its way back to growing grapes. As a family effort in 1999, and with the help of winemaker Bob Foley, the newly named Switchback Ridge Vineyards were able to produce their first vintage. Today, there are 21 acres under vines growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petite Sirah, and Founder/ Managing Partner Kelly Peterson continues the tradition that her great-grandfather Mads began nearly 100 years ago.
As the #1 back-vintage retailer in the US, Benchmark Wine Group prides itself on being a trusted source for the greatest wines in the world. Their unparalleled market knowledge and exceptional service have come together to provide the most accessible cellar of rare and sought-after wines with a guarantee.Provenance Guarantee

The Disco Biscuits are a festival mainstay – but also much more than that. Their cross-genre electronic instrumentation and jam elements has been dubbed ‘trance fusion’ or ‘livetronica’, and has made them a staple at both jam band festivals and dancetronica ones (and more). But they’ve also got their very own festival, ‘Camp Bisco’, at the beautiful Indian Lookout Country Club in Mariaville, New York.
Now in its eleventh year, head upstate for a diverse selection of acts, July 12th to 14th:
THURSDAY, JULY 12TH
|Main Stage 1
The Disco Biscuits, 9:30 PM – 10:45 PM
Crystal Castles, 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Most electronic acts are restrained on stage, even when their crowd is going nuts, but the duo of Ethan Kath & Alice Glass (QRO live review) match their audience’s fervor – which has gotten them booted from more than one stage, especially at festivals. So even if you fall on the ‘hate’ side of this love-them-or-hate-them act (from Canada, surprisingly…), show up for the spectacle… (QRO live review)
|Rubblebucket, 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Brooklyn indie-dance outfit Rubblebucket (QRO live review) fit into any line-up, from ultra-hipster to jam (QRO photos at a festival). Known for electric live shows (QRO live review), the group comes to Camp Bisco (QRO photos at a festival) behind 2010’s Omega La La (QRO review).

There might not be a more ‘live’ electronic band out there today than Holy Fuck (QRO live review – whose name did bring a Canadian MP to question the nation’s support of such music acts as F*ck…), whose stated mission is make electronic music without all the studio trickery so prevalent in the genre – and which so often hampers it live (especially outside of the dance club). Instead, the band managed to record 2007’s LP (QRO review) on the fly (with opener “Super Inuit” in front of an audience), following it up in 2010 with Latin (QRO review), and have since worked the festival circuit (QRO photos at a festival), where there sound hasn’t wilted outdoors (QRO photos outdoors at a festival).

Encrypted video streaming technology developer Harvest Technology Group (ASX: HTG) has today entered into an agreement to give Belgium-based Iristick's 'smart safety glasses' an update.
Perth-based Harvest, founded in 2019, will commence proof of concept trials to see its video encryption and streaming technology integrated into Iristick's smart glasses following a successful prototype test.
By implementing Harvest's Nodestream and Wearwolf technology, Iristick's smart glasses will be able to stream video via ultra-low bandwidths over poor quality or congested networks, making the application ideal for remote, underground or subsea environments.
The partnership is Harvest's latest push into the growing wearables market, making the most of the technology developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary Harvest Infinity.
Harvest Infinity focuses on the creation of proprietary software and algorithms, allowing for the secure encrypted transfer of data including video and audio, specifically designed for offshore or remote locations.
According to HTG managing director Paul Guifoyle, video and audio captured by Iristick's glasses can be transferred at speeds as low as 32kbps using the Nodestream and Wearwolf technologies.
"We are very excited to be involved in a relationship with Iristick and look forward to our joint opportunities in the future," says Guilfoyle.
"We have successfully proven our Wearwolf application on multiple wearable platforms and we are confident it can be quickly adapted for use across other wearable devices.
"Given the expected growth in the wearables market, we are forecasting more than 1,000 new Wearwolf licences in 2021."
Developed by Brussels-based Iristick, the glasses come packed with integrated dual cameras, zoom lenses, a barcode scanner, voice commands and an unrestricted field of view.
The smart glasses are already out in the field and are used by companies including Bayer to give workers a view of the digital and physical worlds simultaneously, but with Harvest's video streaming technology Iristick CEO Johan De Geyter hopes to capture a new market.
"The global pandemic kickstarted the use of remote assistance via smart glasses as a solution to keep enterprise operations running under strict travel bans and contact restrictions," says De Geyter.
"As field workers are sometimes confronted with low or no Wi-Fi connection, this collaboration can overcome that issue and make remote assistance available over low bandwidth, at any possible location, ensuring workers stay connected at any time."
While the product is ultimately targeted at customers in the mining and subsea industries Harvest's main clients the group acknowledges the smart glasses technology has a variety of other applications including in complex manufacturing, logistics and warehousing operations, building and construction, telehealth, humanitarian aid, and in the military.
Prototype testing of the integration of Harvest's tech into the glasses was completed in December 2020 during which the Wearwolf application was successfully combined with the Iristick software development kit.
During testing the integration was proved to work with the cameras, the microphone and the screen on the Iristick smart glasses.
Trial communications were successfully maintained between Perth, Australia and Belgium at 128kbps.
The product is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2021.

Aerojet Rocketdyne (NYSE:AJRD) holders ought to vote for CEO Eileen Drake and her slates of candidates for the board, proxy adviser ISS really useful in a bitter battle between the CEO and Chairman Warren Lichtenstein.
“We tremendously admire the assist from ISS and our shareholders for the Impartial Slate,” Drake said in a statement on Saturday. “We look ahead to persevering with to ship super worth for the Firm and our shareholders.”
The lSS advice comes as holders are set to vote June 30 at particular holder assembly in a battle that has divided the rocket maker’s board. Lichtenstein and his Metal group have nominated a slate of eight administrators for the board.

We’re obsessed with Vantablack, the blackest material ever made.
Every time Surrey Nanosystems, the company that makes it, releases a new video it blows us away.
In this new video, the researchers coated a sphere with Vantablack.
They then moved the sphere over another square of Vantablack, and it disappeared!
They’re materials science magicians.
The new Vantablack shown here is actually an improvement over the original Vantablack the company developed in 2014, which was then the blackest material ever made. The new version they made is even blacker.
It’s so black because the material absorbs 99.8% of light that our eyes can see.
Vantablack is made of carbon nanotubes – rods of carbon that are much, much thinner than any human hair – packed so close together in a maze-like matrix that light goes in, but can’t escape.
In May, Vantablack made its space debut aboard a satellite in low-Earth orbit, where it absorbs stray light so the camera systems can image Earth more effectively.
And while the company partners with space-bound agencies, they continue to make entertaining videos for us here on Earth.
Watch the full video on the Vantablack sphere below.

LG Display has developed a 7,680x4,320 8K resolution 88-inch OLED display, the company announced.
The display boasts 33 million pixels, four times that of 3,840x2,160 ultra high definition and 16 times more pixels than 1,920x1,080 full high definition.
The product will be showcased at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
LG said that conventionally, increases in resolution make pixels smaller, and that lowers aperture ratio, which makes it hard to maintain luminance.
But OLED emits light by itself, so it doesn't lower luminance when the aperture ratio is lower, and is therefore best for 8K resolution, the company said. LCD will need a stronger backlight to achieve this, and therefore will increase costs and power consumption, it added.
Rival Samsung has been critical of OLED, saying the burn-in problems intensify when the screen gets bigger.
It is pushing its own QLED TV, which puts a quantum dot sheet over an LCD to achieve a higher resolution.
Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil a Micro LED TV at the trade show.
LG last year successfully developed a 77-inch display that is transparent and flexible.
iPhone X: We can reduce but not eliminate burn-in on OLED screen, says Apple

DUNCAN – The Fort Mill softball team was swept out of the 5A Upper State championship with a 3-2 loss to the Byrnes Rebels Wednesday.
The score was identical to the one Monday night when Fort Mill dropped game one at home. And just like in game one, a late inning rally was not enough to bring Fort Mill back.
With the win, Byrnes improves to 30-1 on the season and will take on either Ashley Ridge or Berkeley in the 5A state finals next week. The Lower State final between those two schools will have a game three played Friday. Fort Mill ends their season with a 17-6 record.
Byrnes struck first in game two as they scored in the bottom of the third on a squeeze bunt, but Fort Mill came back in the top of the fourth and tied the game at 1-1 with an Ally Hall solo home run.
The Rebels reclaimed the lead in the bottom of the fourth scoring two runs off hits by Molly Mattas and Tiara Pearson.
In the seventh, Fort Mill didn’t go down without a fight as they scored a run on a single by Olivia Poteat driving in Emma Tisdale. Fort Mill managed just six hits in the game and made two errors in the loss. Hall went 2-2 to lead the Jackets at the plate and Ava Balsinger, Sydnie Spears, Trinity Wall and Poteat all got hits for Fort Mill.
In the circle for Fort Mill, Maddie Drerup pitched six innings allowing three runs on six hits while striking out five and walking three. She kept the game tight and twice got out of bases loaded jams for Fort Mill without giving up a run in the first and second innings.

The compliant some people have about the Audi line of vehicles is that they’re too bland, too conservative- to some extent, that’s true, which is why Atilla B brough his B8 Audi S5 to see the Mod Expert Alan at ModBargains. To give his S5 some much needed visual pop, Atilla had already fitted a set of Blood Red Powdercoated Avant Garde M510 Wheels and had already lowered the S5 Suspension, but something was still missing.
A set of gorgeous wheels is only half the equation, and this car has been lowered, taking care of the other half of the problem. When you fit a car with a nice set of wheels, the excess wheelgap leftover tends to stick out like a sore thumb and the H&R Springs have done a brilliant job of getting the car right where it ought to be to look its best. That still left the car a little short on character, but Mod Expert Alan had some ideas.
One of the aesthetic problems the S5 has is that its grille doesn’t look as good as it does on the RS models, which is why the RS style grille is one of our most popular exterior upgrades for Audi S5.
The now front end has much more visual aggression, thanks to the addition of an RS-Style Grille for 2013+ Audi A5 and S5 models. Whenever we install one of these RS grilles, we take the time to plastidip the ugly crash bar behind the grille black so that the car looks like it should – clean, without any body-colored bumper beam peeking out from behind the grille. The only thing people should see behind a grille is an intercooler.
For a bit of extra flair, we plastidipped the Audi Rings as well.
To give the S5 the muscular, authoritative exhaust note you’d expect for a sports coupe like the S5, we’ve fitted it with a AWE Tuning Touring Exhaust for Audi S5 spec’d out with the optional Diamond Black tips, bringing together the black-and-red theme this S5 has going. Bolstering the power output further and enhancing the induction side of engine note is an AWE Tuning S-Flo Intake for Audi S5 as well, the overall package yielding a nice little bump in power along with outstanding looks and an incredible sound whenever you sink your foot into the go-pedal without overdoing it.
The eagle-eyed among you will note that there’s a tow-hitch installed on this S5 as well, which is interesting to note that the AWE Exhaust clears a tow bar just fine.
One way or another, Atilla’s S5 is a car you can’t help but notice – thanks for joining us and we hope you enjoyed the photos.
Interested in getting more out of your Audi? Not sure where to start? Check out our guide to the Best Mods for the B8 Audi S5 to get some ideas and inspiration. We invite you to talk to our team of Mod Experts like Alan (x8006) by calling 714-582-3330, email, chatting live at ModBargains.com or just visiting the ModAuto showroom in La Habra, CA any day during business hours.

North County waterways flowing after storms
As storm-weary North Coast residents and entrepreneurs faced yet another bout or two of rain and wind Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 14 and 15, Caltrans was closing two problematic Big Sur stretches of Highway 1 (again), other emergency crews were gearing up (again) and forecasters were waffling a bit about what else is further out on the weather radar screens.
More rain? Certainly, up to 3.5 inches Wednesday and Thursday, according to the early morning forecast from PG&E meteorologist John Lindsey on Tuesday, with more due Sunday.
Chilly temperatures again? Maybe, but that depends on how you define chilly. Snow or hail? Probably not (snow levels were expected to remain fairly high in these rounds). Other meteorological surprises? Perhaps.
Lindsey predicted that wind gusts could top 55 mph Wednesday morning. If those materialized as predicted, falling trees, snapping utility lines, power outages and other problems were considered not only possible but probable. Again.
The second cold front is expected to produce 32 to 46 mph southerly winds and moderate to heavy rain on Thursday morning. Rain showers are expected to continue Thursday afternoon and night, Lindsey said.
Total rainfall amounts with Thursday’s system are expected to range between 0.75 and 2.5 inches. The heaviest rainfall is expected north of San Luis Obispo County, Lindsey said.
Partly cloudy and breezy weather is forecast on Friday through Saturday, with unsettled and wet weather developing Sunday morning as another cold front moves through the Central Coast, followed by dry weather Monday into Tuesday.
Caltrans and Highway 1
Gates on either side of Mud Creek and Paul’s Slide are locked and will not be manned while those stretches of the highway are closed, according to emailed releases from Caltrans.
Once those gates close, no one — not even emergency services or Caltrans employees — can get through the locked gates until authorities inspect each one and perform any necessary cleanup. Each area will be treated separately and one may be open while the other may not, depending on the agency’s assessment.
When both spots are closed, the only access to the stretch of Highway 1 in between will be via Nacimiento-Fergusson Road over the coastal mountains to Highway 101, assuming it remains open.
Operations will be somewhat trickier than usual for Cambria Fire for at least the next three weeks, Fire Chief William Hollingsworth said Tuesday. An overnight flood caused by a “catastrophic water leak” (likely broken plumbing hoses) in the Burton Drive firehouse Feb. 6 soaked the administrative offices, training room and sleeping quarters with about 3 inches of standing water.
Until cleanup, dry-out, repairs and reconstruction are complete, crews must operate out of the unheated outdoor bays and by temporarily sharing quarters at the Cal Fire Happy Hill station on Coventry Lane. Hollingsworth said he’s splitting his time between the two fire stations and the CCSD administrative offices.
“This will not affect our ability to respond and provide emergency service,” the chief said in an email that afternoon. “Cambria Fire will remain staffed and available to respond to all emergencies,” but all questions will be directed to the district office at 805-927-6223.
In the week between Feb. 4 and 11, 1.26 inches of rain fell on CCSD’s wastewater treatment plant on Park Hill. A few trees fell, blocking roadways
Preparedness admonitions from Lindsey and others include:
• Keep a battery-operated flashlight and radio within easy reach and make sure the batteries are fresh. Pin a little flashlight to your nightclothes.
Listen for updates on storm conditions and power outages.
• Use safer LED candles. Wax candles are not recommended.
• To keep in touch or for emergency communications, don’t depend on a phone that requires electricity. Keep a standard, hardwired landline handset or cellular phone ready as a backup. Remember, some cell phones and especially iPads and other tablets may not connect as well during a power outage unless you have a “hot spot.” Have an emergency power source to recharge your phone and keep it charged up.
• Store water-filled plastic containers or “blue ice” in your freezer. You can use them as blocks of ice to prevent food from spoiling. Stockpile water, nonperishable foods and a manual can opener (plus matches for lighting your gas cook top, if you have one).
• Stay away from downed trees and power lines. Lines could be tangled and not obvious in the tree. Assume all downed lines are energized and dangerous. Report the location to 911. Then call PG&E at 800-743-5000.

Determination of organic and inorganic hydrocarbon saturations and effective porosities in shale using vacuum-imbibition method
Shale oil is a significant unconventional energy resource worldwide. Shale formations are complex systems, with both inorganic and organic content and porosities. Oil saturation in a shale oil formation consists of two components: inorganic saturation (free oil-dominated) and organic saturation (ad- and absorbed oil-dominated). Shale porosity includes inorganic and organic porosities. There is no reported research that identifies the two porosities and saturations. We therefore recently performed, for the first time, two types of vacuum-imbibition tests - water imbibition and oil imbibition - on 20 shale oil rock samples to distinguish these two porosities and two saturations. In case of 100% oil saturated, the final imbibed oil volume in oil imbibition test represents the total oil content that a sample can hold, the final imbibed water volume in water imbibition test represents the inorganic content, and the difference between the two represents the organic content. Helium saturation tests were conducted to determine the total pore volume in shale rock samples. The content of ad- and absorbed oil is obtained from the difference between the total imbibed oil volume and the pore volume. The difference between the organic content and the ad - /absorbed oil content represents the organic pore volume, thereby obtaining the organic and inorganic porosities. Our results indicate that, for the shale rock samples tested, the maximum possible oil content in organic matter ranges from 6% to 55% of the total oil content, and 50% to 90% of the organic oil content is ad- and absorbed in kerogen. The organic porosity ranges from 2% to 50% of the total porosity. Both the organic oil saturation and the organic porosity exhibit a growing trend with total organic carbon of shale rock samples.


The High yesterday 67° The Low this morning 42°
Today: Mostly sunny, with a high near 57º and north wind around 15 mph with gusts to 20.
Tonight: Partly cloudy with a low around 36º and light north breezes..
Saturday: Mostly sunny with a high near 59º and NE wind at 5-10 mph. Overnight it should get down to around 39º with light to calm easterly wind.
Sunday will bring more sunshine with a high near 61º and calm wind to 5 mph later in the morning. Overnight it should get down to about 40.
Next week: Monday’s long range forecast calls for sunshine during the day and up to around 64º. That picture will change a little overnight as a few clouds come in. The low will be about 42º.
Tuesday will be bring at least some sunshine, mixed with a lot of clouds and a high in the mid-60s. Wednesday the forecast calls for the start of a couple of days of sunshine and a high of 70º.

FYI: Nikki is wearing a Gents cap.
