The adventurous life of John Lot Redlingshafer
John Lot Redlingshafer, ca. 1910, with his wife, Virginia, and Freda Marshall --- described in the 1910 federal census as their adopted daughter but apparently not formally so.
John Lot Redlingshafer (1845-1831) is a favorite ancestral uncle (great-great-granduncle, actually) mostly because he led such an interesting life. Younger brother of Great-great-grandfather John G. Redlingshafer, he was born in Bavaria and lived as a child in Pennsylvania and Illinois before arriving in Iowa where he spent only a few years in Lucas County --- interrupted by the Civil War --- before moving on to Kansas and California. He left no writings, nor children to tell his stories, but enough remains in public records to give some idea of his character and the life he led.
John Lot Redlingshafer, known always as Lot, was the adventurer in his family of German-American pioneers, often in partnership with a nephew, Aaron Jacob Fisher, the family member he was closest to for 50 years.
Although born in Bavaria, Lot became a U.S. citizen under laws of the time when his father, George, was naturalized. Lot was the only member of his immediate family to serve during the Civil War, something his father might not have approved of had he lived to see it.
And because Lot married late in life and left no descendants to tell his stories, much of what we know about him must be pieced together from public records and the accounts of others. That is enough to suggest, however, that It was quite a life.
LOT'S DATE OF BIRTH, 14 February 1845, is taken from his Pennsylvania Department of Health death certificate (File No. 95132), a copy of which was included in his widow's Civil War pension file. The same date, as well as place --- Bavaria, Germany --- are found on several documents within the pension file. The birth year 1844 is inscribed on Lot's tombstone in the Fisher Family Cemetery, Fisher Heights, Washington County, Pennsylvania, but all other sources suggest that this is an error.
His father, George Redlingshafer Sr., had three sons named John --- John Kaspar by his first marriage, John G. and John Lot by his second. John G. seems to have used the name "John" most consistently. John Kasper probably was known within his extended family as Kaspar; and nearly everyone called John Lot --- just Lot.
Lot would have been about 3 years old when his family left Germany and settled in Pennsylvania. He was enumerated as age 5 in the 1850 census (entry dated 29 July) of his parents' household in East Bethlehem Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, Six years later, after his family had relocated to Guttenburg in Clayton County, Iowa, he was enumerated in the 1856 Iowa special census as age 12 while living with his parents and younger sister, Elizabeth, with the family of his brother-in-law and sister, Ernst and Mary (Redlingshafer) Dittmer, in Jefferson Township, high on the bluffs above that picturesque Mississippi River village.
Lot's father, George, died at Guttenburg during 1856 and at some point between that year and 1860, the widowed Dorotha Redlingshafer and her two youngest children moved to Lucas County in south central Iowa where her sons, John G. and George W., and son-in-law and daughter, Aaron and Margaret Anna (Redlingshafer) Hupp, all had settled in Benton Township.
When the 1860 census of Benton Township was taken, John L. Redlingshafer, age 15, was enumerated on 14 July in a household headed by his brother, George, that also included their mother, Doratha. Lot, according to the census, had attended school within the year and his occupation was given as farmer.
THE NEXT YEAR, on 10 August 1861, Lot --- who was only 16 --- went to Albia, lied about his age and enlisted as a private in Co. I, 8th Regiment of Iowa Volunteer Infantry. At this point, his father may have turned in his grave since one of the reasons most often cited for the Redlingshafers' resettlement in the United States was George's desire to spare his sons conscription into the Prussian army.
Lot was mustered into U.S. service from the state of Iowa on 12 September 1861 at Davenport. And if a desire for adventure had motivated young Lot to enlist, the realities of war soon became painfully evident.
Time was short and neither the Union nor the Confederacy was prepared to mount the massive military effort that war between the states would entail.
On the night of 24 September 1861, the Eighth was ordered to leave Davenport the next morning, bound for St. Louis. The men had neither uniforms nor weapons and "only the most crude camp equipage" when they boarded the steamer Jenny Whipple for that trip downriver.
At Keokuk, "arms of poor quality, but the best the government was at that time able to procure for its fast increasing army, were issued, and the regiment proceeded on its way."
Upon arrival at St. Louis, the regiment disembarked and marched to Benton Barracks where its members engaged in intensive training until 15 October, when they left St. Louis aboard flat cars and traveled to Syracuse, Missouri, as participants in Maj. Gen. John C. Fremont's campaign against Springfield, which culminated on 25 October in an engagement known as Zagonyi's Charge.
By November, Lot's unit was headquartered at Sedalia, Missouri, and he was listed as "present" on company muster rolls from November 1861 through February, 1862.
Between 11 and 21 March, 1862, the regiment moved from Sedalia to St. Louis and then on to Pittsburg Landing, Tennessee, as the deadly Battle of Shiloh — during which Lot would be captured — loomed on history's horizon.

THE EIGHTH IOWA, according to published reports, fought 10 hours on the first day of the Battle of Shiloh, April 6, repelling attack after attack, and, with the battery which it was supporting, inflicting terrible punishment upon the enemy. It was the last to leave the advanced line of the army, being surrounded as it attempted to withdraw and compelled to surrender.
Out of 650 men engaged, it lost 64 killed, 100 wounded, and 47 missing. The 8th, 12th and 14th Iowa formed four-fifths of the little force that held back ten times its numbers at the close of the first day at Shiloh. Entirely cut off, they fought until they could fight no longer, and threw down their arms only to see many of their number shot down in cold blood after they had surrendered as prisoners of war. Captured officers above the rank of lieutenant were sent eventually to Libby prison, Richmond, where they were held until parole. The lieutenants and enlisted men were sent to various prisons in Alabama and "suffered the miseries and privations so common to southern prisons."
The estimated casualties at Shiloh totaled 23,746, 13,047 of them Union and 10,699, Confederate. More than 3,200 were killed.
Prisoner of war records, cited in Lot's pension file, state that he was captured on that first day, April 6, and taken from Corinth to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on April 15-16, and apparently spent most of his brief time as a prisoner of war there. He was sent to Montgomery, Alabama, on the 15th of May, 1862, was paroled there on the 22nd of May, and reported to Benton Barracks, St. Louis, Mo., on 10 July 1862.
Benton Barracks, located in north St. Louis, was used as an encampment for paroled Union prisoners of war released from the Confederacy on condition they would not bear arms against Southern forces until the expiration of parole.
It is not clear from documents found in his service file how long Lot remained at Benton Barracks. He is recorded there as a "paroled prisoner" on 20 August 1862 and "to Aug. 31, 1862." On 31 October 1862, he was reported as "absent without leave" from Benton Barracks.
He was carried as "missing in action" on his company muster rolls through February 1863.
The Battle of Shiloh had decimated the Eight, and survivors were organized as the Union Brigade, which remained active in the South until December of 1862 when, in large part because of prisoner exchanges, it was decided to reorganize the regiment at Davenport. That reorganized, undertaken in both Davenport and St. Louis during early 1863, probably included Lot.
BY 10 APRIL 1863, he was listed as "present" on regular company muster rolls and remained so through December of 1863. It was noted on muster rolls for July-August and November-December 1863 that he was "detailed on daily duty in regimental band."
On Jan. 11, 1864, at Pocahontas, Tenn., Lot was discharged, re-enlisted and remustered as a private in Co. I, 8th Regiment of Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry, assigned as a fifer in the Regimental Band, and was thus carried on company muster rolls into August of 1864.
Reported as missing in action again (having been taken prisoner during an engagement at Memphis, Tenn., on Aug. 21, 1864) on the August muster roll of his company, he had returned to duty by September and was carried as present on company muster rolls through December of 1865. He continued on daily duty with the Regimental Band during that period.
On Jan. 17, 1866, he was detached from his company to serve as a member of the Post Band and discharged honorably at Selma, Alabama, on April 20, 1866.
Lot, who had just turned 21 two months prior to his discharge, returned home to Lucas County that spring. He recalled, many years later in 1922, that "reaching his home near Chariton, Iowa, on Saturday morning the following Monday morning found him in his class room taking up his studies where five years before he had laid them aside at his country's call for assistance in preserving the nation." (The Chariton Patriot, 3 March 1922, reprinting an article about his 77th birthday published previously in "The Donova American," of Donova, Pennsylvania).
RELATIVELY LITTLE IS KNOWN of Lot's life during the next 25 years because he left no one behind to tell his story. We know that he earned a teaching certificate and taught in the schools of Lucas County and perhaps elsewhere. He also farmed, but seems not to have owned land in Lucas County.
Lot, aged 25, was living with his brother and sister-in-law, John G. and Isabelle Redlingshafer, on Aug. 2, 1870, when the federal census-taker reached their home. His occupation was given as farmer and his personal estate was valued at $200.
During the early 1870s, Lot forged a relationship with his nephew, Aaron Jacob Fisher, some seven years his junior, that would endure for the remainder of their lives. A.J., born June 21, 1852, was the youngest child of Lot's eldest half-sibling, Barbara (Redlingshafer) Fisher.
It's not clear exactly when this happened, but we do know that both A.J. and his older sister, Anna Sarah Fisher, lived for a time with their Lucas County relatives prior to Sarah Anna's 1875 marriage to Graham Lee of Hamlet, Ill.
A.J. recalled an incident that occurred in Lucas County during that time in a letter dated Feb. 28, 1918, to his niece, Anna Mary (Lee) Heisey: "I well remember an incident in Chariton, Lucas County, Iowa. We lived six miles south of the county seat and (Anna Sarah Fisher) took her exams with other teachers and the county superintendent issued her a second class certificate which she refused to accept --- as she said, she had answered all the questions correctly and had never yet had anything but a first class certificate! So he appointed a day to give her a special exam in her own home and, after a grueling day spent in all he could devise or knew himself, he gladly gave her what she demanded and had so richly earned. Uncle Lot, a teacher himself, who was present at this hearing, said your mother was the best educated of the two and the county superintendent was glad to be out of it."
It seems likely, but has not been confirmed, that Lot and his nephew, Aaron Jacob, went from Iowa during the later 1870s to Kansas where A.J. acquired land. This is based upon a Fisher family story that Jacob acquired the farm in Washington County, Pennsylvania, upon which he and his mother settled about 1883 in a trade involving the Isaac Teeple family --- A.J.'s Kansas land for Teeple land in Washington County.
That story holds that Aaron, an only son, liked Kansas after settling there and wanted his mother to join him, but she declined. So he arranged the trade with a Teeple newcomer in Kansas to acquire a home for her in Pennsylvania.
This is all very iffy, but we do know that one of Isaac Teeple's sons, Thomas William Teeple, did indeed settle in Kansas ca. 1876, living in both Neosho and Crawford counties.
BY 1880, HOWEVER, Lot had left Kansas behind --- most likely with Aaron Jacob in tow. Fisher family stories hold that the pair scouted in the West and mined in Nevada, Oregon and California's Death Valley.
When the 1880 federal census was taken, Lot was enumerated on June 3 at age 35 as a laborer living in Markleeville, Alpine County, California. He was head of a two-person household that also included Patrick Flattery, age 38, a miner. I've not located Aaron Jacob in the 1880 census.
Markleeville, due west of Sacramento and south of Reno, became something of a boom town after discovery during 1859 of the Comstock Lode on the eastern slope of Mount Davidson in Nevada and continued to flourish during the various gold and silver excitements in that area.
By late 1881, Lot --- now accompanied by Aaron Jacob --- had chased silver south into the Tioga and Prescott mining districts near what now is the eastern boundary of Yosemite National Park. They were headquartered in the town of Lundy, where the weekly Homer Mining Index had commenced publication during 1880. And because of that newspaper, we have a record of several incidents in Lot's California life.
During January of 1882, the editor of the Index and a German friend named Fritz started off to walk into the high Sierras, carrying snowshoes and provisions, bound for "the camp of the Mining Associates at the Amazon and Orinoco mines, high up the northwestern slope of Mount Theller, overlooking the Sea Lions above the head of Mill Creek Canyon and facing Mount Bill Richers of the summit of the main range of the Sierra."
En route, they encountered L. DeChambeau, L.W. DeChambeau, A.J. Fisher and J. Lot Redlingshafer, "of the Mining Associates, (who) had been down to Lundy after some dainties for a big New Year dinner, and had started up the 990-foot bluff to the foot of Lake Canyon just ahead of us, each of them with 35 pounds of corned beef and other fixings packed upon his back. The zig-zag trail up the steep acclivity was filled with snow and frozen over, so that the ascent was somewhat like climbing the glacier of Mount Blanc; and besides, Fritz and I were pretty well 'loaded' (with snow shoes, and things) and were a little short of wind. Louis W. DeChambeau --- a mere boy (weighing 1850 pounds, 21 years of age and six feet two in height) broke the trail, and the pack train soon left us. On reaching the bench above, the Associates sat down to rest, and to "take suthin," and tauntingly shook the bottle at us as we were climbing, foot and hand and almost breathless, 400 feet below. They finally dropped the stopper down to us and passed on, but on reaching the level ground above (rising only 845 feet in the first mile), we soon overtook them --- they having stopped at the foot of the May Lundy tramway for dinner."
During March of 1882, a storm described as "phenomenal" struck the High Sierra, dropping seven to eight feet of snow on the higher mountains and lesser amounts farther down --- accompanied by powerful winds and avalanches.
The experience of the Mining Associates party was reported in the Index of March 25 as follows:
FOUR MEN BURIED FOR THREE DAYS
L.W. DeChambeau and his son Louis, J.L. Redlingshafer and A.J. Fisher had built a cabin on the Gold Bar mine, on the south side and near the head of Mill Creek Canyon, and moved into it on the second day of the storm. The cabin stood under a high point of croppings. At 11 o'clock on the night of the 15th a tremendous avalanche, having a run of nearly two miles, came thundering down the mountain. Striking against the cropping the avalanche divided, but reunited immediately below, burying the cabin to great depth with loose snow, but otherwise leaving it intact. Being comfortable situated and having plenty of air, the men concluded not to shovel off the roof until the storm should subside. As no tidings had been heard from them and the gravest apprehensions were felt for their safety, on the following Saturday morning, in the face of a furious and blinding wind and show storm, Mike Eagan, William H. Studley, Joseph Caron, S.B. Burkham and Sam Cummings started on show shoes and with shovels to ascertain the fate of the DeChambeau party and to render whatever assistance they could. Near the lower falls, about two miles above town, they met the elder DeChambeau and Redlingshafer, wallowing through the snow on foot, making their way to town. The other two men had preferred to remain at the cabin, having snow shoes so that they could skp away in case of further danger. They had dug an upraise from the roof of their cabin to the top of the snow above."
Later on that year (1882), both Aaron Jacob, now 30, and Lot --- now 37 --- registered on Oct.7 at Lundy to vote.
By 1883, however, A.J. apparently had had enough adventuring and returned to Pennsylvania. He brought his mother, Barbara, to Horseshoe in Washington County to live on the new farm and on Dec. 25, 1883, married Mary Susan Kibler. They settled down on what became known as Fisher Heights and immediately commenced to reproduce enthusiastically, producing between October of 1884 and March of 1909 a total of 13 children.
Lot, however, remained behind in the High Sierra --- and more adventures awaited him.
By late 1883 he had become a mail carrier, in addition to a miner, traveling by foot through the mountains in all weather.
On Nov. 10, 1883, The Index reported, "In sunshine or snow, calm or storm, J. L. Redlingshafer makes his regular trips, on foot, over and three miles along the Mount Warren Divide, nearly 13,000 feet high, carrying the Tioga mail, parcels, packages, anvils, team boilers, etc."
On March 1, 1884: "J.L. Redlingshafer, the Tioga mail carrier, who went and came during the whole of February storms --- that is, whenever he could get any mail from Bodie to carry --- has determined to make his regular trips hereafter, storm or shine, whether the carriers on other routes turn out or not."
On March 8, 1884: "Redlingshafer, the Tioga mail carrier, took over a tremendous load of miscellaneous freight last Saturday, and as he ascended the mountain on the snow at 6 o'clock in the morning he looked like a load of hay rising to a loft."
And finally, on Mary 10, 1884: "Lot Redlingshafer is not carrying many passengers over his Lundy and Bennettville (snow shoe) mail line just now, but is doing a good deal in the heavy freight line. In addition to his mail and express matter, he shouldered and packed over a 60-pound piece of machinery on Tuesday, and on Thursday he carried over an 85-pound piece. With the matter constituting his pack on Thursday Redlingshafer carried a load about equal to his own weight. This surpassed the capability of any pack-mule in the country, and is a really remarkable performance, when the fact is considered that he has one almost perpendicular climb of 990 feet and another of 2,760 feet --- both on snow."
Keep in mind that Lot was nearly 40 when these reports were written. In isn't known how much longer he remained in the High Sierra, but he registered to vote for a second time at Lundy on Aug. 7, 1886, when he was 41.
LATE IN LIFE, LOT SAID that he had lived in California for 10 years, which suggests that he headed east again about 1890, when he was 45.
Although he had lived in Pennsylvania, Illinois, Iowa and Kansas in addition to California, it's doubtful Lot felt rooted in any of those places. His mother, Doratha, had died in Lucas County during 1883 and four of his siblings still lived there, but Lot chose Pennsylvania, most likely because of his enduring relationship with his nephew, Aaron Jacob.
Lot certainly had not become rich during his adventuring years, but apparently had saved enough to purchase a small farm adjacent to the A.J. Fisher place on Fisher Heights and so he settled there.
When he was 50, Lot married Virginia M. Carhart, five years his junior, on July 18, 1895, at the home of Aaron J. and Mary Fisher on Fisher Heights. Virginia, born Jan. 7, 1850, in Chicago, had not been married previously either. Her place of residence as listed on the application for a marriage license was Brooklyn, N.Y. The two seem to have forged a congenial relationship that lasted for the remainder of their lives.
Lot's occupation, as recorded on census forms, varied as the years passed. He was listed as a farmer in 1900, a watchman at a steel mill in 1910, a gardener in 1920 and, finally, as retired in 1930, when he was 85.
Lot's 77th and 80th birthdays were celebrated with modest fanfare that merited front-page coverage in The Donora American, published in nearby Donara,
Lot outlived all of his siblings save one, the youngest, Elizabeth (Redlingshafer) Banschbach of Princeton, Ill. He also outlived his beloved nephew, A. J. Fisher, who died on March 10, 1930.
During October of 1931, Lot suffered a stroke and died as a result at age 86 on the 14th in Memorial Hospital, Monongahela. He was buried on October 16 at the right hand of Aaron Jacob in the Fisher Family Cemetery.
Virginia survived only a month longer, dying on Nov. 22, 1931, also at the Monongahela hospital. She was buried by Lot's side.

I also called Choice Hotels International, which owns Econo Lodge, and was told that it would submit my "unfortunate incident" to the hotel. I was told by Choice Hotels there was nothing it could do and that the individual hotel would have to take care of it. I had no choice but to pay the ticket, which is when I found out I was parked in a fire lane that was not clearly marked. Can you help me?
Linda Troop, Colorado Springs
A: This is one of the strangest cases I've seen in a while. I reviewed the correspondence between you, Econo Lodge and the city of Aurora, and as far as I can tell, you didn't park in an actual parking spot.
You asked a hotel employee where you could park, and were referred to a curb designated as a fire lane. Only, it wasn't clearly marked as a fire lane, according to you. So when you received a ticket, both you and the employee were surprised and, again, based on your account, so was the manager on duty.
To be clear, it's your responsibility to park your car in a legal spot. But you also relied on the word of a hotel employee, who should have known (and if he didn't, he had no business referring you to the parking spot you used). If the manager had told you, "Tough luck," this would be the end of the story. Technically, he'd be right, and you would need to pay up.
But that's not what happened. The manager took your ticket and — again, according to your account — promised to pay it. And as I like to say, a promise is a promise.
Fixing this ticket might have been a little easier if you'd sent the notice from the city of Aurora directly to Choice Hotels by email, instead of trying to resolve this by phone. Remember, calls don't leave a paper trail, so there's no way for you to prove that a conversation happened. I'd like to think a brief, polite email to Choice would have cleared this up, but I'm not sure. It appears as though the manager who promised to pay your ticket was "unavailable" to discuss your claim. I don't see any indication that the silent treatment would have ended, and that left you with a ticket to pay.
I contacted Choice Hotels on your behalf. It cut you a check for $150, the full amount of the ticket plus the late fee.

Predictive Leadership: Avoiding the 12 Critical Mistakes That Derail Growth-Hungry Companies
By Kirk Dando
Nothing masks issues and robs an organization of its full potential like success
That's right! Most successful, growth-hungry companies begin to miss their projections or worse, not because demand is low or conditions are difficult, but simply because they don't know how to predict, nurture, or even maintain their own growth and success. At each stage of growth, natural problems are glossed over in the scramble to expand, making the organization vulnerable to chaos, no matter how strong or expert its leaders. Most leaders feel isolated, pressured to build on earlier success and maintain total control - the perfect recipe for the 12 most common and critical mistakes to show up and slow or kill growth.
Kirk Dando, leadership and growth expert, CEO of Dando Advisors, calls these roadblocks the "12 Warning Signs of Success," and has helped leaders across industries predict, prepare, and avoid them at every stage of growth. Predictive Leadership is rich with real-world stories, prescriptive advice on how to scale your business and limit the drama so you can unlock the growth and success you desire.
Maybe you had the right idea but hired the wrong person. Maybe you're running into a leadership bottleneck, having trouble getting your team aligned, unknowingly incentivizing failure, or losing sight of your core values. Dando, known in leadership circles as the "Company Whisperer," has encountered every one of these obstacles himself, as a C-level executive in a high-growth billion-dollar business. He knows firsthand that these moments of truth determine whether you can lead your company to become a strong, mature, and financially sustainable organization, or drift toward an uncertain future.
"Dando offers leaders valuable advice as they transition from startup stage through growth mode to industry leader." --"Publishers Weekly"
""Predictive Leadership" will help you see the successes and predict the failures every business experiences before they materialize. Kirk Dando's been there, done that perspective gives you an insider's view of what really happens in high growth companies and shows you how to unlock the leader inside." --Harvey Mackay, author of the #1 "New York Times" bestseller "Swim With The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive"
""Predictive Leadership" challenges leaders to take an authentic, eyes-wide-open look at their businesses to avoid common pitfalls. This critical authenticity is unfortunately often missing in business decisions, leading to unnecessary stress on the business and its leaders and stakeholders. When I was starting out, I devoured dozens of business books; "Predictive Leadership"'s simplicity and focus on action - rather than theory - can help leaders succeed more quickly and with less heartache, something we can all appreciate." --John P. Mackey, co-CEO, Whole Foods Market

Visteon es un fabricante de componentes para la industria automovilística, segregado del grupo Ford Motor Company con un total de 77.000 empleados y una facturación de US$ 18,7 miles de millones, y posee 200 factorías a lo largo del mundo.

Visteon realiza piezas para casi todos los fabricantes de coches, pero en Europa fundamentalmente trabaja para PAG

Visteon España
Las factorías que Visteon tenía en España fueron vendidas en 2014 al fondo Cerberus y funcionan con el nombre de Reydel Automotive.

Visteon llegó a disponer de cinco factorías en España, ubicadas en Igualada (Barcelona), Salceda de Caselas (Pontevedra), Almusafes (Valencia), Puerto de Santa María (provincia de Cádiz) y Medina de Rioseco (Valladolid), así como el centro técnico de Servicio y Atención al Cliente de El Prat de Llobregat (Barcelona), que proporcionaba servicios de recursos humanos, finanzas y contabilidad, principalmente, al resto de plantas.

En la provincia de Cádiz, contaba con una fábrica en el Puerto de Santa María, con una plantilla de 500 empleados y una superficie de 13.200 metros cuadrados. Entre los productos que fabricaba destacaban los módulos de control de Powertrain, módulos de control antirrobo, y cuadros de instrumentos, así como cluster del Volkswagen Golf V y Nissan, entre otros.

La factoría de Igualada, con 200 puestos de trabajo y 12.416 metros cuadrados de superficie, trabajaba principalmente para las firmas automovilísticas Nissan y Seat, mientras que el centro productivo de Salceda de Caselas destina el 90% de los productos al Groupe PSA, aunque también produce interiores para el Opel Combo, que se monta en Azambuja, Portugal.

La factoría de Almussafes (Valencia) con una plantilla de más de 400 personas, la planta ocupa una superficie de 12.000 m², está situada en el Polígono Industrial Juan Carlos I de Almussafes siendo este polígono el "Parque de Proveedores de Ford". Prácticamente la totalidad de la producción de la fábrica estaba dedicada a proveer de paneles a Ford de los modelos Focus, Fiesta y KA (el modelo Mazda2 dejó de fabricarse en julio de 2007), por lo que tiene conexión directa con Ford a través de un túnel o conveyor por lo que se provee en tiempo real al cliente Ford.

Cádiz Electrónica

El 23 de junio de 2011 se anunció el cierre de Visteon El Puerto - Cádiz Electrónica. Lo cierto es que pretende cerrar dicha planta a pesar de haber obtenido sobrados beneficios a lo largo de sus veinte años de historia; El cierre viene originado por estar trasladando su producción de Cádiz a otras plantas situadas en China y Rumania, por motivos de ahorro de costes y como una puerta política para conseguir avanzar en el mercado oriental. El 7 de noviembre la Junta de Andalucía se negó a aceptar el ERE alegando que no hay razones justificadas para creer que la empresa no tenga viabilidad.

After hearing some moms mention that they often become bored during breastfeeding I was inspired to share some helpful tips on how to pass time while feeding your baby. There were times when I would lay down with my baby and just rest or sleep while he fed and then other times I would multi-task.
Multi-tasking is nothing new to moms. This is especially true during baby's early years as they require constant care and attention. During breastfeeding there is an opportunity to sit back, relax, and enjoy a bonding moment with baby. However many moms may feel that it is a great time to get a head start on some minor chores that can be done while sitting down.
There are many ways to pass the time while breastfeeding your baby. Whether it be just watching your baby while he is feeding, getting some extra fluids such as water, or planning and preparing things relating to home. Here are some great ways to pass time while breastfeeding your baby in a relaxed and enjoyable way.
1. Read. Read a book, magazine, or news article to yourself or silently to your baby while feeding.
2. Interact with your other children. Put together a puzzle, play a game, or simply talk and listen to them.
3. Social network. Connect with family members and friends online or catch up with the latest trends.
4. Take an online class. There are a wide variety of classes available online for free. There is everything from cooking classes to university level classes.
5. Have a snack. Choose healthy protein rich foods that will give you more energy to care for your baby. Nuts, peanut butter sandwiches, and hard-boiled eggs are all high in protein and easy snacks that you can eat with one hand.
6. Make a shopping list or plan meals. Stick to simple and healthy meals that can be prepared quickly. Plan meals around the weekly specials to help save money at the same time.
7. Watch television. Catch up on the news, your favorite programs, or enjoy a movie.
8. Play games. Phones have many free apps you can download including brain teasers, word games, and strategic board games.
9. Jigsaw puzzle. These are really great for your mind and will keep you occupied for any length of time.
10. Write. Whether you are a blogger, keep a journal, or author you can use this time for brainstorming, finding topics, and making notes. You would be surprised at how much you can get accomplished over several short periods in a day.
If you have breastfed in the past or are currently breastfeeding what do you do to pass the time?


Highly polluting peaker power plants are predominately located in low-income communities. Replacing these plants with energy storage plus renewables is an important environmental justice opportunity.
Today's electric power system is built on a foundation of baseload power, largely coal, nuclear and natural gas, supported by more flexible, predominantly natural gas-powered peaker plants deployed to meet infrequent peak electricity demand needs. But renewable generation and battery storage have begun to disrupt and upend this legacy fossil-fuel system. For the first time ever, traditional power plants are at risk from replacement by these new, non-polluting energy technologies.
Over the last few years, market analysis from industry experts and the national laboratories has suggested that fossil-fueled peaker plants may be at near-term risk of replacement by battery storage and renewable energy technologies. Through modeling and market trend analysis, experts have found that battery storage and renewable generation may be less expensive to develop and operate than these little used but heavily polluting power plants, while also meeting or exceeding the same performance standards these often thirty- to forty-year-old peakers.
This clean energy transition is not just theoretical. It has been proven by rapidly advancing market forces. Several recent utility procurements for peaking capacity favor batteries and renewable generation over traditional peakers on both cost and operational ability. (For more on this evolving market transition, see the power plant replacement section of our Energy Storage Trends project.) Moreover, replacement is not just an economic or emissions reduction opportunity. Retiring or reducing reliance on these plants could be a major win for environmental justice because of where many of these plants are located.
The more than 1,000 peaker plants in operation across the United States are predominantly located in disadvantaged communities, sited in or near mostly minority and low-income areas. (See our interactive peaker plant map to view more details about where these plants are located.) Peaker plants disproportionately emit health-damaging air pollutants – mainly ozone forming chemicals and harmful particulates – that contribute to poor local air quality and harm public health in these vulnerable frontline communities.
Replacing peaker plants in disadvantaged communities represents one of the most important environmental justice opportunities in the country. It can serve as a model for how new energy technologies can be used now – not years from now – to help communities take charge of their energy future to end our reliance on these outdated and dirty plants and to stop the construction of new ones. There is no reason that peaker replacement technologies, like batteries and solar, cannot be distributed broadly throughout these communities, where they can benefit local businesses and residents through savings, revenue generation, and improved resilience.
In turn, this peaker strategy can demonstrate how longer-term efforts involving energy storage and renewable technologies can begin to incrementally replace, longer duration baseload fossil-fuel plants. Replacement of peaker plants could create the foundation for this necessary struggle to end use of fossil fuels to make electricity.
The Energy Storage Peaker Replacement (ESPR) initiative is a collaborative effort, co-led by Clean Energy Group and Physicians, Scientists, and Engineers for Healthy Energy (PSE), to help local community and environmental justice groups win peaker plant replacement fights. ESRP will develop the analytical basis and strategies to support policy and local advocacy efforts to replace new and existing fossil-fuel peaker power plants with battery storage and other clean energy technologies nationwide. It is the first effort in the country to systematically analyze and target traditional peaker plants at scale.
The ESPR initiative will consist of two phases over the next few years.
Phase I: Conduct the needed analytical research to close information and data gaps that stand in the way of efforts to replace peaker power plants. This will consist of state- and peaker plant-level screening and analysis of multiple factors, including economics, emissions, air quality, environmental and human health hazards and impacts, equity and legal and regulatory considerations. This work will be conducted in consultation with a broad stakeholder group composed of industry experts, academics and scientists, and local community and environmental justice leaders.
Phase II: Building upon the robust technical analyses developed during Phase I, engage in a multi-year process in collaboration with social, environmental, and economic advocates to deploy community strategies to successfully replace peaker plants with battery storage and renewable energy technologies.

Recent Articles > MICRO-OXYGENATION: A CASE STUDY!
There are currently a number of different winemaking techniques and technologies that improve upon the quality of wine. One method is the use of micro-oxygenation during the red winemaking process. Micro-oxygenation of red wine allows a wine to be released to the market at a young age while still possessing characteristics of a wine that appears to have been aged for many months.
Micro-oxygenation works by adding a controlled rate and flow of oxygen into red wine to stabilize color and improve astringency and aromatic components of the final product. One problem with this technique is that each grape variety behaves differently during the micro-oxygenation process, thereby making it much more difficult to know exactly how much oxygen and how quickly the oxygen should be injected into the wine.
Modern winemakers understand that adding oxygen affects the chemical and sensory components of a wine. General changes include changes to phenolics, sulfur compounds, and oxygen consumption. Several problems can occur if the wine is exposed to too much oxygen, including the oxygenation of phenolic compounds, increases in astringency, color, mouthfeel, and bacteria populations.
Finding the right amount of oxygen to add to red wine could have important quality and economic benefits for a winery, in that if the "correct" amount of oxygen is added, wine quality would improve which would theoretically increase the consumer "liking" of the wine and ultimately increase consumer purchasing of said wine.

Is Kidbrooke Village ashamed of being in 'Royal Greenwich'?
"People living in Greenwich will want it to say 'Royal Borough of Greenwich' on the street sign," council leader Chris Roberts said two years ago when it was announced Greenwich would become a royal borough.
To be fair, the street signs are belatedly starting to appear around the borough, with the one above replacing a sign that'd been damaged for 10 years. They're fast movers at the council.
Indeed, even new wheelie bins have appeared with the "royal" logo. But what about Greenwich Council's flagship development on the old Ferrier Estate site, Kidbrooke Village? With residents only recently moving in, surely these new places must be brandishing "royal borough" signs?
Nope. Looks like Greenwich Council has surrendered these streets to Berkeley Homes, which has put up its own street signs. Surely considering the close relationship Greenwich Council has with the company – Chris Roberts owns a Berkeley property on Woolwich's Royal Arsenal development – it would have made sure Kidbrooke Village would have shown off the borough's prestigious new identity? Or is the "royal" badge really just about promoting the council, rather than its communities?
I think non-standard road signs should be illegal. And also, whoever told the Council that Georgia was a good font should be sacked. But I'm a grumpy old font nazi.
Darryl, I think the answer to your question 'is the "royal" badge really just about promoting the council, rather than its communities' is YES….. was there ever any doubt?

Q: Once menu item is clicked, close menu and revert the classnames & jquery Ok... So I have this drop down menu working as I'd like... however I'm trying to figure out how to revert the function back to it's original state after a menu item is clicked.
So first when you trigger the function it does & works great the following:
It swaps out .menu_hide and .lockscreen for .menu_show and .lockscreen_on.
// show and hide mobile menu
$('#triggerMobileMenu').click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    // Toggle all 4 classes off or on
    $('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_hide menu_show');
    $('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_off lockscreen_on');

But now I'm trying to add another piece that says once a menu item is clicked, close the menu and swap the classes back to their original state from .menu_show and .lockscreen_on, to .menu_hide and .lockscreen_off.
    $('#mobileMenu ul li a').on('click',function(){
        $('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_show menu_hide')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
        $('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_on lockscreen_off')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
    });
});

I should also note that on the same page a scroll to id# may be happening vs just simply taking you to the new url/page. Either case will happen though.

A: I think it is working as intended.  I had to fix some id names that may have been switched in the translation to jsfiddle.  Here's a working one as far as I can tell.  This leaves the somename2 div still showing.  I assume that is going to be blank and just for locking the screen right?
I also changed the link to a new tab for testing purposes.  FYI.
Relevant changes are:
$('#somename1 ul li a').on('click',function(){
    $('#somename1').toggleClass('menu_show menu_hide')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
    $('#somename2').toggleClass('lockscreen_on lockscreen_off')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
});

A: I think that you're making this too complicated. Use the same event handler for both a#triggerMobileMenu and ul#mobileMenu li a since you're having them do the same thing (toggle the visibility of the menu and another element).
$('a#triggerMobileMenu, ul#mobileMenu li a').on('click', function(evt){
    evt.preventDefault();
    $('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_hide menu_show');
    $('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_off lockscreen_on');
});

If you need to know which element was clicked in the event handler, evt.target is available:
if( $(evt.target).is($('a#triggerMobileMenu')) ) {
    // do stuff
}

The prowess has finally become true: Richard Wagner´s "Tristan and Isolde" has been premiered at La Plata´s Argentino, the first time that city hears and sees a wagnerian production in German. The only antecedent was a "Lohengrin" in Italian in the old theatre, as far back as 1952. Of course, the vast facilities of the new Argentino were ready for the challenge, although with one limitation: even with recent improvements, the badly designed pit still hold only 85 players, and Wagner sounds best with over a hundred. It is a paradox that the big Argentino´s Orchestra numbers 127, but this total can never be in the pit. Also, the acoustics aren´t particularly good, especially as it affects voice projection.
The last time the City of Buenos Aires heard "Tristan…" was in 2000, and the vocal results were poor as far as the protagonists went. Unfortunately this is also the case for the two pairs of lovers (with one partial exception) heard recently at the Argentino. If the Colón, as a great international theatre, has the obligation to provide the very best in the world, the fees of the top artists are beyond the possibilities of a provincial theatre, as the Argentino is, even with its hugeness (over 2000 capacity). Whether better choices could have been available or not, I´m in no position to answer.
However, the magic of "Tristan und Isolde" still works, even when the full import of the words and the music doesn´t come over. Premiered in 1865 (though finished years earlier) it had a huge impact which kept on growing. As stated in Luciano Marra de la Fuente´s excellent programme notes, the innovations "are the subversion of harmony, melody and rhythm through the use of open and amplified processes…He employs a highly chromatic harmony, with suspensions and unresolved dissonances…creating a sensation of instability, tension and ambiguity, according to the never quenched desire and impossibility of earthly union of the protagonists".
It needs a medieval ambience for its text: a boat sailing through the Sea of Ireland and arriving to the Cornish coast; a woody refuge near King Marke´s castle; and the coastal ruins of Kareol at the Bretagne. Celtic places, a world of magic and filters, the same as King Arthur´s. I am at times saturated by the constant mix of Eros and Thanatos and the recurring exaltation of the Night and demonization of the Day, but the immense conviction and dramatic power of the music carries all before it.
Marcelo Lombardero, the producer (and the current Artistic Director of the Argentino), didn´t improvise: he did "Tristan" twice for Santiago de Chile, and he brought that conception to Prague. With certain changes in respect to Santiago´s production, his use of cunning and beautiful projections allied to some well-designed sceneries by Diego Siliano gave us a "Tristan" worth looking at, devoid of the ridiculous "concepts" that nowadays so often ruin opera (also at the Argentino). In fact, if I have a criticism it concerns that old error of traditional stagings, the lack of enough interaction between the singers and the singing "to the public" rather than to each other. But his solutions were attractive, especially in crucial points of all three acts, when a small platform in the middle of the stage rose with the lovers, isolating them from the rest of the world, absorbed by the magnitude of their attachment. I liked the costumes of Luciana Gutman with the exception of Tristan´s (whose makeup furthermore was unattractive). The lighting of Horacio Efrón was irregular and sometimes left in the dark important bits of the action.
The Argentino´s Orchestra keeps improving. Even if the first minutes were a bit tentative, they soon found their feet under the concentrated and intelligent impulse of conductor Alejo Pérez, who chose generally fast but coherent tempi and also phrased intelligently and in full collaboration with the singers. I felt his reading more in the Böhm tradition than in Knappertsbusch´s.
Of the Isoldes I preferred the second, Eiko Senda; her unmistakably Oriental appearance (she´s Japanese) isn´t that of an Irish princess, but her vocal resources generally coped with the music and her interpretation became gradually deeper. The first Isolde, Anja Beer, has the right looks, but the voice is strident in the high reaches and poor in resonance and projection in the center and the low range. The Russian Leonid Zakhozhaev has some of the power required; however, he often sounded harsh and unlovely; he sang the last part of his huge Third Act monologue with a naked torso appearing to be tattooed (it was painted), looking like a rocker rather than a Medieval knight. The other Tristan, the American John Pierce, looks the part and has an agreeable timbre, but his musical control was faltering (whole phrases sung under the tone) and the volume certainly didn´t rise to the big moments.
The Brangäne of Adriana Mastrangelo was quite good; she felt the anguish of the character (she changes the filter of death by the one of love) and sang with free high register. Eugenia Fuente lacked that firmness and was rather too bland. I enjoyed the Kurwenal of Fabián Veloz far more than that of Douglas Hahn, and found Hernán Iturralde a notable King Marke, better than Christian Peregrino. The smaller parts were good, except Sergio Spina´s Young sailor.

Civil partnerships for heterosexual couples:
Today the government has announced that heterosexual couples in England and Wales are to have the right to enter into civil partnerships.
The move, intended to provide greater security for unmarried couples and their families, was announced in a statement by Theresa May made at the Conservative party conference in Birmingham. In the announcement May, who previously, as Home Secretary, supported legislation that created equal marriage, said "this change in the law helps protect the interests of opposite-sex couples who want to commit, want to formalise their relationship, but don't necessarily want to get married."
What sparked this development and change in the law?
The decision comes three months after Rebecca Steinfeld and Charles Keidan, a heterosexual couple, won a legal bid at the Supreme Court to be granted a civil partnership. The couple, who have two young daughters, had been prevented from entering into a Civil Partnership as the Civil Partnership Act 2004 states that only same-sex couples are eligible.
In the landmark Supreme Court ruling it was held that the bar on different-sex couples entering into civil partnerships breached the parties rights under article 14 (the prohibition of discrimination) together with article 8 (the right to respect for private life) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The court said that the Civil Partnership Act 2004 was therefore incompatible with the ECHR and urged parliament to consider addressing the issue.
Today the issue has been addressed and May has confirmed that the law will be changed.
What is the current law on civil partnerships?
Civil partnerships were introduced under the Civil Partnership Act 2004 and the first civil partnership ceremonies took place in December 2005.
Before civil partnerships were introduced, there were no legal routes for same-sex couples to formalise their relationships. This meant that no matter how committed a same-sex relationship was, a same-sex couple could never have the same rights as different-sex couples who were married.
The Civil Partnership Act introduced civil partnerships as a way of giving same-sex couples a way to acquire the same or comparable status as a married different-sex couple and have been popular since first introduced.
In August 2018 the Office of National Statistics published data showing an annual increase in the number of civil partnerships in England and Wales of 0.2%. This was the second annual increase in the number of civil partnerships since the introduction of the 2013 Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act, which legalised same sex marriage in England and Wales.
Why do mixed-sex couples want the right to a civil partnership?
There are a range of reasons why people do not want to get married. High on that list, as was the case in the matter of Steinfeld and Keidan, is the feeling among some that marriage as an institution does not reflect equality in a relationship due to its arguably archaic and traditional gender role roots.
There are also practical reasons for why some unmarried heterosexual couples might now want to enter into a civil partnership. There are currently 3.3million co-habiting couples in the UK and this figure is on the rise annually. Many of these couples believe that they are protected under 'common law marriage' and possess similar rights and protections enjoyed by married couples. However this is not the case.
Entering into a civil partnership means that couples will be able to enjoy greater protections within their relationship, without having to carry the patriarchal associations of traditional marriage that are becoming more and more unattractive to cohabiting couples.
What has the reaction been?
The reaction to the news this morning has been largely positive, with many pleased that all couples in England and Wales, irrespective of sexual preferences, are to be given the same choices in life. This includes civil rights campaigner Peter Tatchell who said the announcement was "wonderful news".
Martin Loat, chair of the Equal Civil Partnerships campaign, agreed that it was great news and added that "legislation would be fair, popular and promote stable families." However, he was slightly cautious in his assessment, stating that it was now time to "get on with it". This cautious approach has been adopted by a number of critics who are concerned that the only thing missing from the news this morning is a timeline.
Equalities Minister Penny Mordaunt has promised that the change in the law will happen "as swiftly as possible" but has acknowledged that there are a number of legal issues to consider across pension and family law. Ministers are now said to be in the process of consulting on the technical detail.
What does the future hold?
It is yet to be seen what impact this change in the law will have on couples in England and Wales wanting to make a long-term commitment to each other. Many envisage that the change will lead to an increase in civil partnerships and a decrease in the number of cohabiting couples in England and Wales. However, the primary focus for parliament at present is introducing a clear timetable for the change and we will watch on and await to see what happens.

Carrboro removes art from exhibit
The Herald-Sun/Jenna Ruttkay
Hunter C. Levinsohn displays her controversial work, "Trying to Make Black and White Out of Red, White and Blue," Thursday at the Carrboro Town Hall.
By Susan Broili : The Herald-Sun
sbroili@heraldsun.com
Jul 10, 2003 : 8:02 pm ET
CARRBORO -- An art exhibit at Carrboro's Town Hall has provoked such strong reactions that the town's second-ranking elected official removed one of the works shortly before the Fourth of July celebrations to keep visitors from seeing it.
The reactions to Chapel Hill artist Hunter C. Levinsohn's work continued Thursday, when one town employee had the look of a person who'd caught a whiff of something noxious as she voiced her opinion about the exhibit, which is called "July 4th 2003 Which Way Is Up?"
"I did not like it," said the employee, who asked that her name not be used. "Many of the people who work for the town are offended by the arts display."
The employee said she certainly did not like the work that was taken down. Titled "Trying to Make Black and White Out of the Red, White and Blue," it depicts an American flag with its stars arrayed in the shape of a swastika.
"It seems like the art is always of controversy and leaning toward the same thing -- those not in support of our country," the employee said of the current show and others like it at Town Hall.
The employee said she especially objected to a work of art still on display that shows a bomb coming out of the top of President Bush's head.
"That's a harsh statement there," she said. "That's not peace and love."
Carrboro may be known as a liberal town, but not everybody who lives there or who works for the town feels the same way about things, the employee said.
Complaints from employees and other people figured in Alderman Alex Zaffron's decision to take the swastika piece down on the eve of the town's Independence Day celebration, said Jackie Helvey-Hayes, a member of Carrboro's Art Committee and the coordinator of municipal art exhibits.
Zaffron -- who's also the town's mayor pro tem -- also was concerned because the Independence Day celebration was likely to attract a lot of older people, including some veterans, to a bingo game scheduled to occur in the boardroom where the piece was on display, Helvey-Hayes said.
Zaffron could not be reached for comment Thursday.
Mayor Mike Nelson was out of town while the show was being put up, but when he returned on the Fourth of July, he saw the work and liked it, Helvey-Hayes said.
"He immediately took it into his office and hung it on the wall," Helvey-Hayes said.
Nelson also thought highly of the exhibit, which includes a piece called "Security Alert Purse With Tom Ridge Paper Doll & 6 Outfits." It has one outfit for each color in the country's terrorism alert system plus an outfit made of plastic and duct tape.
Helvey-Hayes said the mayor told her he thought the exhibit was the best Carrboro had ever had at Town Hall.
But the mayor added that he thought it best for the art to stay in his office until early August when he returned from vacation, so the staff wouldn't have to deal with complaints, Helvey-Hayes said.
Then the art will go back up, but in a less prominent place. It'll be accompanied by the artist's statement and a book in which people can write their comments, Helvey-Hayes said.
Since Helvey-Hayes has been coordinating exhibits over the past year and a half, no work of art has been taken down, although some paintings of nudes were displayed in the boardroom instead of in the main entryway of Town Hall.
The job of finding artists to show work at municipal art exhibits at Town Hall and the Century Center should fall to the town's Art Committee, but since that group hasn't met for some time, Helvey-Hayes has been doing it. The selection process has never used a jury, she said.
Artists have either contacted the town or Helvey-Hayes has called artists she knows or has heard about. The unsolicited work has been of uniformly high quality, she said.
Helvey-Hayes said she knew Levinsohn's work, remembered that she'd done a flag series and asked her if she would be willing to display it at Town Hall this month.
Levinsohn's work is thought-provoking and often controversial, Helvey-Hayes said.
Levinsohn wrote the statement about her art in response to the complaints, to help people understand the idea behind her art, Helvey-Hayes said.
In the statement, Levinsohn explained that she created the art in 1990 as a protest against the flag amendment, which would ban flag burning and, she believed, threaten First Amendment rights to freedom of speech.
In an interview Thursday, Levinsohn, who is Jewish, said she had used the swastika because she thought it would make it clear to people that her art is about a type of repression that would threaten the freedoms in this country.
The artist said she considers herself patriotic. On Thursday, she wore red, white and blue, down to her shoes.
Part of being American is having the freedom to criticize the practices of the government when you think those practices are morally wrong, Levinsohn said.
Much of her exhibit is critical of the current Bush administration. "My perspective is that the office of the president is to be treated with honor, but the person in the office is subject to appraisal," she said.
Town employee Annette Rogers, who works in the payroll department, said she was offended when she saw the work being installed, but had a greater understanding of it after she talked with the artist.
"She shared with me that she didn't mean it in a negative way ? that it was about freedom of speech," Rogers said.
But "as a person of color," Rogers said she still found the use of the swastika offensive.
"I looked at it and thought Nazis and skin heads and prejudice," Rogers said.
Rogers said she respected the artist's right to express herself, but did not think the art was appropriate for a government building.
But Levinsohn said she thinks a government building is just the place for it.
Town Hall is "a political place, a public space, the space where you discuss politics," Levinsohn said.
