Battery boon: Breaking down the benefits of battery-powered equipment
December 18, 2017 - By Lauren Dowdle

Electric equipment continues to prove its place in the landscape industry. Batteries last longer, equipment is lighter and more operators see these machines as comparable to gas.
Landscape contractors share the benefits, setbacks and trends for battery-powered equipment.
With 90 percent of his equipment being electric, Ron Rose—owner of EQ Grounds in Auburn Hills, Mich.—says it has helped set the company apart.
With $350,000 in annual revenue, the company maintains both commercial and residential properties, with 90 percent of its services being commercial. Services include maintenance, snow management and lawn care services, which are subcontracted.
EQ Grounds' lineup of electric equipment includes a Mean Green 60-inch ZTR, 33-inch walk-behind, 48-inch ride-on and 20-inch push mowers—as well as blowers and trimmers.
He decided to rely heavily on electric mainly because of the gas and maintenance savings.
"After you pay off the equipment, there are pretty significant savings, considering you have to pay about $30 a day for one gas mower. You can run for less than $5 a day with an electric mower," Rose says.
Electric equipment also has helped differentiate the company from its competition.
"It gives you a little bit of an advantage," he says. "People are receptive to eco-friendly and low noise."
Rose hasn't seen too many major trends with electric mowers, but has noted new updates such as lighter mowing decks and improved battery run times.
To become more efficient, he's in the process of incorporating 220V chargers. "If you charge on 110, it takes about 12 to 15 hours to get a full charge—instead of 220 where it is five to eight hours," Rose says.
He is adapting to battery-powered equipment, but he says others in the industry aren't as open to the change.
"It's just a change in mindset. The way a lot of guys think is that they're inferior machines and won't be able to do what they need to do with them," Rose says.
There are differences between battery-powered and gas-powered equipment, so it's important for crews to be educated for safety purposes and to get the most from the electric machines. Manufacturers often offer videos that show how the machines should be operated. Conserving power is important with electric equipment, instead of going full throttle right away.
"Spend more time with employees, enough to put them in the mindset they need to be in to run these machines efficiently with less damage," Rose says.
Rose and his team have been able to get close to seven hours of mowing out of their electric machines, which allows them to make it through a 10- to 11-hour day.
As for maintenance, electric equipment doesn't require as much as gas-powered machines, and problems are easy to diagnose.
The benefits provide savings in the long run that are worth the extra upfront cost, according to Rose. "You have to make it through a season or two to see savings, since they are more expensive," he adds.
For one company, adding battery-powered equipment has had a direct impact on its revenue. It's all about providing sustainable services that align with the customer's requests, says Jason Page, operations manager at Merit Service Solutions in Austin, Texas.
The company works with commercial, industrial and multifamily properties and provides maintenance, snow management, parking lot sweeping and repair, design/build and enhancement services.
Merit Service Solutions uses a variety of electric equipment brands, including Greenworks, Stihl, Echo and Husqvarna. Most of its battery-powered equipment are blowers. It also has some trimmers.
Adding electric equipment was mandatory for Merit to win one large account, which spans about 80 acres. The property required the maintenance company to align with its standards of not having a carbon footprint.

The client has solar panels on all of its buildings, so those provide renewable energy for Page and his team to use.
Merit has another client who requires the electric approach, but Page recognizes this route isn't for everyone. "But for people who care, this is a start," he adds.
There's definitely a different mindset with electric equipment, which requires the contractor to reteach its customers and employees. It also takes time to figure out how many hours a crew will be able to get from a battery pack, because each brand of equipment is different and temperature can affect the run time.
Manufacturers have improved the longevity of the equipment, and run times have gotten better, Page says.
Contractors also can sell electric equipment as an advantage to clients by explaining its benefits.
"Yes, there's a little (more) cost. But, companies can roll that into the contract," Page says.
The sustainable benefits of electric equipment were especially appealing to Jeff Sebert, president and founder of Sebert Landscape in Bartlett, Ill.
The $45 million company's services include maintenance, snow removal, sustainable landscapes, design/build and enhancements. It is 95 percent commercial, with a few residential clients.
Sebert Landscape uses Husqvarna trimmers, blowers and edgers, and it's looking to add more this year. The inspiration for using electric machines came from the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design movement.
"We call ourselves the green industry, but we're not really green when you look at it," he says. "This is one way we can minimize our carbon footprint. We want to provide services that are healthier for the user and people surrounding the user."
Sebert Landscape also installed solar panels on the roofs of its trailers to recharge the equipment on the job site, allowing crews to become more
efficient.
Sebert says it's important for contractors to build trailers that can receive a plug-in outlet and recharge batteries. He also recommends that contractors take the time to work with their staffs in the field to get their buy-in with the machines.
"There's a fear factor," Sebert says. "The mentality is if it doesn't make a lot of noise, it's not as good."
He's noticed manufacturers working to improve the longevity of the battery power and life. The only piece of electric equipment he says is lacking, compared to the gas alternative, is the blower.
As a whole, Sebert says it's important for professionals to find sustainable alternatives, if they are truly the green industry.

Generations: Artistic Expressions of Heritage and Identity with Helina Metaferia
Presented by Helina Metaferia
Moderated by Michelle Millar Fisher
The family and community that precede us shape how we see the world today. From pride in identity to the effects of suffering across generations and the desire to imagine better futures, how do we process the memories and experiences we inherit? In her most recent exhibit at the MFA Boston, "Helina Metaferia: Generations" (open until April 4, 2022), interdisciplinary and research-based artist, Helina Metaferia uses collage, video, and installation to explore how we carry on the legacies of our elders, the kinship we find in our contemporaries, and the many ways these relationships inform and shape us. In this vibrant and illustration-rich presentation, Ms. Metaferia and Michelle Millar Fisher, Ronald C. and Anita L. Wornick Curator of Contemporary Decorative Arts at the MFA Boston, will discuss the exhibit, her body of work, and her creative process involving researching oral histories and archives; understanding her family history and heritage; and collaborating with communities.
Helina Metaferia is an interdisciplinary artist working across collage, assemblage, video, performance, and social engagement. Her work interrogates the body's relationship to sites, especially as it relates to notions of identity and citizenship.

2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Ducks vs. Stars Observations: In Defense of Kari Lehtonen, Thoughts on Playoffs Returning to Dallas
Some quick thoughts on the series so far as the NHL postseason returns to Dallas for the first time in six years.
By Brandon Worley@brandonworley Apr 21, 2014, 11:00am CDT
Share All sharing options for: 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Ducks vs. Stars Observations: In Defense of Kari Lehtonen, Thoughts on Playoffs Returning to Dallas
Ronald Martinez
I wasn't able to post my detailed thoughts and analysis of the 3-2 loss in Game 2, but as the NHL playoffs return to Dallas I wanted to share some general observations on the series so far -- through two games at least -- as the Anaheim Ducks prepare to take on the Dallas Stars and what should be an amped up home crowd.
There was a bit of discussion around Kari Lehtonen and his performance through two games behind the scenes at DBD headquarters, which led to this fairly brilliant breakdown by Josh Lile on Saturday on how the Stars goaltender must be demonstrably better moving forward if the Stars have any hopes of winning this series -- or even being competitive.
Now, this isn't to say that I believe Lehtonen should be let off the hook or that we should not be expecting better from him; in fact, some of the criticism here is based on our expectations from what we've seen from Lehtonen in four seasons and how we know he can be much better. As a goaltender myself, however, I think I can understand a bit why Lehtonen seems to be off his game and so different than the goaltender that was nothing short of brilliant the final ten games of the season.
These sorts of offensive assaults like we've seen from the Ducks are tough on goaltenders because there is no calculated or structured attack. Instead, we're seeing odd-man rushes and extremely aggressive plays with the puck towards the net off these rushes coupled with a fairly frenetic attack off the forecheck. There isn't much of a cycle or a structure to the Ducks offense right now, and they're doing a great job of cashing in on the limited chances afforded them -- going against a goaltender who performs his best when receiving a steady diet of shots throughout a game.
All of this has seemingly unnerved Lehtonen, and it's something he needs to get over in a hurry. Dallas is doing an increasingly good job of limiting chances and shots but the Ducks have made a living this season on feasting on mistakes and that's exactly what is happening in this series. The biggest issue with Lehtonen is dropping into his stance and lowering his glove hand way too quickly and isn't showing the confidence he needs when facing a shooter one-on-one.
This is a problem that we've seen before when Lehtonen has been off of his game.
Lehtonen and Mike Valley need to address this issue but I also understand where this is coming from a bit -- so hopefully if I can understand it, the professionals can understand and fix that. This is also a task for the Stars defense as well, and it can't all be on Lehtonen, but if the Stars are going to have a chance at evening up this series or even winning a game a quick turnaround is drastically needed.
The NHL postseason is returning to Dallas for the first time in six years and it's amazing to think just how different this franchise is from 2008 until now. Trevor Daley remains the only player from that roster still on the team, and there's almost no one from management that remains -- perhaps Les Jackson is one of the few, along with some behind-the-scenes folks.
Management. Coaches. Players. Logos. Colors. Jerseys.
Fans.
Think of this fanbase. Think of what we've seen at the AAC the past five years and how the Stars have gone through the hills and valleys of a franchise in a turbulent time. Remember the dwindling crowds and how quickly the Stars were essentially forgotten by the Dallas sports scene, and just how quickly a successful season and playoff berth can quickly change things.
There's going to be some talk about "bandwagon" fans and the such, and while it's certainly fair to rail against "Blackhawk fans" who haven't stepped foot in Chicago in 20 years I really don't think anyone should mind much as the rest of DFW climbs back aboard the Dallas Stars train.
Playoff hockey is unlike almost any other atmoshere in sports and the crowds at the AAC this season have proven that Stars fans can be incredibly loud and raucous when called upon. The game against the Blues, in which a postseason berth was clinched, was a perfect example of how this Stars team -- which feeds so directly off energy and speed -- can rally behind their crowd and vice-versa, and I expect nothing less for tonight's 8:30 start.
It's a shame, but after two games it's very clear that the shortcomings on this team have a lot to do with many of the veterans that were acquired to actually make a situation such as this one easier for the Stars. Instead, the up-tempo and aggressive approach that has worked so far for the Stars -- and one that is also employed by the Ducks -- has been too much for certain players to handle, and it's cost this team dearly.
Brad made a great point Friday night that this is essentially a Jim Nill problem, and that actually feels like a really good place for this team. The Stars are so obviously close to truly breaking out it's frustrating when they come up just short, but so much has already been addressed.
The Stars have a franchise center and an incredible young captain and a very promising core of young players. The team also has a truly competent and encouraging coaching staff for the first time in six years (coincidence? I think not) and that's going to go a long way towards making this rebuild continue to barrel along ahead of schedule.

Since last year, Jay Nolte has been publishing a weekly webcomic satirizing office life under the premise of what would happen if a corporation opted to start hiring flesh-eating zombies as a cost cutting measure. "The Zombie Office" primarily takes place in Humonga Corp., the aforementioned company's marketing department, where Dave, on of the company's human, living employees, is tasked with training Bob, one of the newly hired undead.
Nolte spoke with CBR News about the allure of creating comics, his plans to expand the cast beyond Dave and Bob both through the comics and his upcoming book, "The Zombie Office Guide to Corporate Etiquette," and his long term goals for "The Zombie Office."
CBR News: I saw on your portfolio you've done some creative work for brands like Harley Davidson, and MTV. What got you interested in working in the creative field?
Jay Nolte: I've always drawn since I was a little kid. I've always wanted to be involved in some sort of creative business. I started out in advertising, and then went into online gaming before opening my own shop that does animation and illustration. That's allowed me to kind of focus in to what I love.
I've always loved comics and I've always wanted to work on some sort of a comic. And about two years ago I was at a comic book convention and I decided that I really wanted to put something together. So I came up with several ideas and "The Zombie Office" was the one that resonated the best. So that's why I started working on this project.
Diving into the premise of "The Zombie Office," can you elaborate a little on what this giant corporation is?
Humonga Corp. is just a large, multinational corporation. And with large expenditures and increasing health benefits and salaries, this company had decided to insource the living dead as cheap labor.
So what happens is [human employee] Dave comes to work late one Monday morning to find out that his company has started to bring in zombies. He works specifically in the marketing department and he has to train the zombie in their work.
Bob is the name of the zombie that's Dave's training -- and right now that's the only zombie that's been brought in. Later, there will be other zombies and other characters that come in. A lot of the characters that are in the motivational posters will eventually be coming into the comic as it progresses.
Another thing I saw on your website were the office memos written by Humonga Corp.
Oh, yeah -- I've kind of playing around with different concepts. Te office memos are from the administration. What's happened is that the corporation higher-ups knew they were going to bring in zombies, so they moved all their supervisors, the management team, to a secure bunker in the basement.
So, really, the employees only hear from the management team over the loudspeaker, those office memos and emails.
The office memos are an interesting way to build up the world around Dave and Bob.
Yeah, I'm hoping to have more of that come out as I go, because I have this whole mythology of how the corporation works, with the different management and people levels. I have that all structured out; I just haven't had a chance to implement that in any of the comics yet.
How much of your creative process has changed or developed during the course of publishing your own comic? Or has it evolved at all?
I started with the motivational posters in March of 2012, and at my first convention, people told me I really had to come out with a webcomic. So that's when I started creating more of a storyline around the characters. But then, some people told me that I should do it more like standalone individual panels.
So that's where I am, with these two kind of conflicting styles. That's why I'm working on a book right now, that will feature more of the mythology and have more of the storyline in it. And the comic, I've moved more towards sort of standalone scripts. It's kind of early in the process and I've been zipping around a little bit.
It's called "The Zombie Office Guide to Corporate Etiquette." I'm lampooning corporate etiquette books just because it's such a big thing right now in office politics. I plan on bringing in more of the characters in that book.

This is not my kind of plan.
My kind of plan has parts A, B, C, and D…at a minimum. This is how we've gotten through six years with my fragile and unusual child: Planning for anything and everything to happen. This is why I drive around in a van filled with toys, supplies, and medical equipment—ambu bag, extra feeding tube, suction, Diastat.
We ride the elevator up to the main floor. The woman scanning tickets stands in front of a steep staircase. I can hear the risers squeaking under the feet of the other families arriving for the show. As she scans our tickets I ask, "I know it is general admission, but where is the accessible seating?" She disinterestedly tells me to take the elevator up to the balcony.
This doesn't put me at ease.
When we pop out on the balcony, I know that these are not seats we can manage. There is a small platform on the last row of the balcony—where some of the worst seats in the house have been removed to accommodate a wheelchair. Esmé cannot see much detail more than 15 feet in front of her. She probably can't even make out the stage from so far away—and we are here so that she can see what is about to happen. I lean over the balcony and peek below. Rows of folding chairs are laid out on the floor in front of the low rising seating below. "Can't we just head there?" I ask the usher who greeted us at the elevator.
Below us, the seats already almost full.
Esmé's first nurse, Denise, was the one who started playing Disney Junior's Choo Choo Soul videos for Ez. Ez was around two at the time. The show featured the train conductor Genevieve singing and dancing with her breakdancing and beat-boxing friend DC. Denise said she knew how much Esmé loved shows that were all music, and how well she responded to strong beats. She'd seen the show and thought Esmé might enjoy it.
Also, Denise wanted a break from the Small Potatoes clips that dominated most of Esmé's TV viewing at the time.
Esmé loved it. Sitting in her bouncer, leg braces on, she'd watch Choo Choo Soul, bouncing to the beat. Although she couldn't stand without a lot of support, sometimes she'd bounce so energetically that I worried her tiny little body might break the thing, or fly from the harness. She'd open her mouth wide and enthusiastically vocalize back at the television during her favorite songs.
The elevator pops us out on level with the folding chairs, but it is not clear where we can sit. There are a few open seats in the middle of the rows, but Ez would have to sit on our laps, it would be hard to maneuver if she needed to get out, and where would we leave Esmé's chair? As we discuss the seating that rises up from the floor, an usher, seeing our confusion, walks over to us. I brace myself a bit, ready to explain what we need, worried she will want to send us back up to the balcony.
Surprised at her instant awareness of our needs, I muster, "Oh, thank you so much!" I watch as she makes her way through the seats, people shaking their heads to indicate they cannot move—they're saving seats, or in need of the end of the row. The usher circles all the way around the seats before I finally see a mom sitting at the end of the last row turn and look back at us and smile. She nods, lifts up her belongings, and carefully guides her daughter further down the row. The usher waves at us to come over, while she stands there, guarding our spot.
After we complete the shuffle of the folding chair removal—which involves several staff discussing what to do with the removed chair now—and wiggling Ezzy's chair into place, I turn to the other mother and thank her warmly. I ask the little girl if she's excited for Choo Choo Soul. She smiles shyly before nodding eagerly.
As soon as Esmé is settled in she already seems a bit bored. I, on the other hand, feel like I am fighting back tears. I'm touched by the kindness of these strangers and feeling excitedly hopeful that this all might work after all. Also, admittedly, I'm scanning for how best to exit quickly with Esmé, if needed. If we have to run, we will need to walk in front of the stage in order to get to the elevator.
I wonder momentarily how many other of these parents reflexively scan for exits like I do.
In the last six months Esmé has returned to watching Choo Choo Soul more regularly. She seems to enjoy it on a whole different level now. I'm pretty sure she is paying attention to the details, absorbing the lessons. I hear her kicking her feet to the beat when she watches it with her grandparents on their Monday mornings together.
Recently one of her favorite jokes consists of us singing the ABCs to the tune of another song—like Old MacDonald. It is a silly thing her father started doing. Also, she likes Choo Choo Soul's version of the ABC song, presumably because it has a totally different tune. I sing it to her at night—badly—and she giggles.
My mother tries to sing it, but can never get it quite right, which also makes Esmé laugh.
I pause. She doesn't shake her head no…So we move.
I take a seat on the floor to the side of the kids area—several feet away from the closest kid, but near enough to it that I hope Esmé feels like she is a part of the group. I set Esmé in my lap, careful to show her where her Papa is a few rows back watching us. Worried a bit about the stimulation from the knot of excited children in front of the stage, I tell her that we can go back to our seats if she feels like we are too close. Apparently in response, Esmé pushes through her feet to stand up.
She stands between my knees, my arms braced at her hips to keep her upright as she leans forward toward the show, moving her body to the beat, knees locking and unlocking. Although she leans away from me, she keeps on hand in contact with my wrist the entire time, as if to reassure herself I am there. Or, as she lovingly kneads her fingers into outside my wrist, I wonder fleetingly if instead she is reassuring me that she won't leave me.
When Genevieve comes off the stage and walks through the kiddy mosh pit, singing just s few feet away from us, we inch forward, as Esmé tries to get just a bit closer to this woman who typically dances inside our television screen. She seems less impressed by DC's presence, I wonder if she has trouble following his fast break dance moves. But once, when DC makes a joke, Esmé, laughs out loud at the same time as the other children. Then she turns back to me, still laughing, as if to ask, Did you get it, Mom?
Esmé has a beautiful laugh. She laughs often at the scripted jokes we share or the silly things she shares only with herself. But in that moment, seeing her laugh at something she shares with a whole group of children, I have never, ever, been so happy to have taken her somewhere. Never, ever, have I seen her able to belong during something for her peers so quickly, so easily.
The tickets were her caregiver Mayah's idea. She sent me the link via text in November, asking if I thought Esmé might be able to sit through the show. I bought the tickets soon after. Her father and I planned to give them to her as a present for her sixth birthday in January.
Uncertain of how to tell Esmé about the tickets in a way that she would be excited about, but that would also make it clear that she wasn't going to the show right that second, we made a video. The night before her birthday André and I recorded ourselves singing the Choo Choo Soul theme song, explaining that Genevieve and DC were coming to visit soon, and that she was going to go see them sing and dance.
She watched the video, curious and happy, five or six times. But I wasn't sure if it sunk in.
After the show is over we line up in the main level for our chance to meet Genevieve and DC. Other children, still wound up from Choo Choo Soul chase each other and dance around the small columns in the space. Esmé happily stood, bopped, and danced, with my support, through almost the entire show, but now she's sitting back in her little red chair, exhausted. Her head tilts to the side. Her eyelids look heavy. She whines half-heartedly. I am not clear whether I am being a fun mother or a thoughtless mother in wanting her to wait for this experience.
When DC and Genevieve walk by, Esmé barely notices, and starts hitting her cupped hands together in front of her forehead. I'm fairly certain this next part won't go all that well. But we've waited this long, right?
Just before it is our turn, I point to Esmé where we will be going to meet Genevieve and DC. I tell her she can be pushed up in her chair, or we can carry her, or we can help her take steps to them. Showing her the Yes and No card I ask, "Do you want to go in your chair?" No. "Do you want mommy to carry you?" No. "Do you want to walk?" Yes.
It is our turn now, so I slip her out of her chair and hold her arms at the elbows, so she can push against me, as she begins unsteadily stepping in their direction. Halfway there, she wiggles out of my hands, and drops herself to the floor on her hands and knees. I expect her to roll onto her back in objection. Instead she crawls, focused, straight to Genevieve.
I hold my breath, because, at this point, I'm never quite certain how a stranger will react to her. Her body is small, but not so small that it isn't surprising that she cannot walk. Her loose joints hyperextend awkwardly. She does not respond to questions, even though she understands. There is drool on her chin.
She looks so vulnerable and wild in this place, crawling on the dirty floor, but I lag behind, a watch her move forward, allowing her this small assertion of independence.
Genevieve drops down to Esmé's level to meet her. She bends over and scoops her up without a pause—like she's been lifting her since she was a baby. Esmé looks up at her, with complete awe and adoration.
And in that moment, my daughter, my peculiar, broken child, belongs.
It is so exciting to be co-hosting this week's Finish the Sentence Friday (FTSF) with Finding Ninee. As those of you who are familiar with this blog and the blog that came before this one, The Cute Syndrome, know I have been in a period of rediscovering my voice as a writer as I work to integrate the writing I do about my daughter, Esmé, and the other writing that I want to explore. And FTSF has played an important role in that discovery, for me.
Each week on FTSF we receive a sentence to finish. The prompts have really helped me broaden the topics I address and let me feel free to explore new ways to tell some of the stories that are important to me. Join the Facebook Group to start linking up with all of us! The first week I linked up I wrote something that I didn't even know I needed to write. It felt so raw and close to the bone that I wasn't certain I wanted to share it. But I did it anyway…and I am so happy I did.
Now this week I was able to participate by helping with the writing prompt: The Places I Belong Are…. I'm really looking forward to reading this week's posts! Thanks for joining!
Oh, I'm so happy that day was a success – your writing kept me wondering and I found myself getting anxious for you! Thank you also for the reminder of how powerful the kindness of strangers can be. Something as seemingly insignificant as shifting seats can be so meaningful for someone else.
I felt so blessed that the other mother was willing to shift over. I wanted to hug her, but thought she might have thought me a wee bit weird…Going out to unknown events with Ez is always so anxiety inducing for me. It is such a huge relief when someone is willing to help us out in a way tat makes us feel seen, included, and welcome.
I absolutely love this post! What a wonderful experience for you, Esme and Genevieve! I've never heard of Choo Choo Soul, but I'll be checking to see my son enjoys it. 🙂 There's an organization called Songs of Love that provides personalized songs for children with disabilities at no cost (https://www.songsoflove.org/). We just got my son's song last week, and he turns when he hears his name on his song. It's pretty cool and something Esme might like if she's a music lover.
Oh! I have heard about songs of love! That is so cool that your son can hear his name in the song. Let me know if you son enjoys Choo Choo Soul!
These stories can always go several ways. You had me on the edge of my seat for you the entire time I was reading. I love the ending. I am so glad everyone seemed so accommodating for you. So happy this show was such a success and such a thrill for your child. Any happiness you can bring to them is worth all the worry in getting there. Beautiful. Glad you could host again.
Thanks for reading! I was on the edge of my seat experiencing it too 🙂 It was really so wonderful to witness Esmé enjoying herself at the show. I'm thinking she might be ready to try Disney!
Gosh!! Glad and relieved that it ended well.
Right!? Me too!! It doesn't always…I was ready to have to just walk out of there!
Thank you for hosting FTSF and for the beautiful sentence!
Thanks Nicki! I'm glad I got you weepy, LOL. It really did feel like that though…she is such a sweet child and has always found ways to show me love, even if it is subtle or unexpected. Thanks for reading and joining in!
Aw… Genevieve! She was a class act! I LOVE that.
To answer your wonders, I always scan for exits in crowded places – but it's because I have an anxiety disorder! When they were younger, perhaps I needed to know where bathrooms always were, but usually it's for my own thing.
Genevieve is totally amazing. I will never, ever forget that moment. Glad to know I'm not the only one scanning exits. I've always been a bit anxious as a person–but Esmé has thrown that anxiety into overdrive. Thanks for commenting!
Truly beautiful. Nothing beats the reward of seeing joy in your child's face.
Oh. My. Heart. Hillary, this is so beautiful – you and your precious daughter are beautiful. The kindness and compassion of strangers can be so powerful in circumstances like these. I'm so glad you all had a wonderful experience. And I have new respect for that young lady on Choo Choo Soul (which we watched endlessly when our Zilla was very small…). Bless her.
Just shared on my FB page, but can't tag you. So beautiful.

Review: Masque of the Red Death by Bethany Griffin
Masque of the Red Death
By Bethany Griffin
Expected publication: April 24th 2012
By Harper Collins
Amazon † GoodReads
Everything is in ruins.
A devastating plague has decimated the population. And those who are left live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles to pieces around them.
So what does Araby Worth have to live for?
Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.
But in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat. Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does.
And Araby may find something not just to live for, but to fight for—no matter what it costs her.
This book was AMAZING! I jumped into it and I didn't want to come out. The writing was excellent. A lot happens in the first couple of chapters, it's hard not to keep reading. The story is told from Araby's point of view and her story is so dark and scary; I don't think I could survive in her world.
First, I feel I should mention that there is drug use in this book, not a specific drug, but the main character is so broken that she uses drugs once or twice to escape her life. I actually reached out to the author about this because I wanted to be sure. It's not big in the story, but it is there. Other than this, the book is pretty much clean.
This is the first time where I wished the author wrote the story from multiple points of views. I loved every single character. They each get a small break down in the book about their past and what's their story, but I would have loved to been inside their heads. There is a slight love triangle, but it was done so well that when I was done reading I was still swooning over both males.
The one thing that stuck out to me the most about Araby, was her compassion for others. Even though she was so broken inside and came from a pretty wealthy life, she still found it in her to think of others and help others. Although, this was also a bad thing, because at times she was very gullible, but it was written very well that in the end it just made her look like a strong character. While I was reading I was so into Araby's world and her emotions that I instantly felt a connection to her. She is very relatable.
Araby shut herself off from the world around her after the death of her twin brother. In a mistaken attempt to honor her deceased brother, Araby decides to not fall in love or enter into any type of relationship because her brother is not around to do the same. This is another example of how deeply Araby feels. She is willing to forgo having any happy feelings in her life because she has this deep, albeit misguided, guilt about the circumstances surrounding her brother's death.
Masque of the Red Death is a well plotted book with great, great, characters and a very imaginative world. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for something dark and edgy with a great pace and consistent world building. I really enjoyed it!
5 out of 5 stars!

So excited to see a rave review for this book-I have a copy and adore Poe! Definitely one of my most anticipated books of the year.
Tanya Wednesday, April 18, 2012 6:20:00 PM
Thanks for the awesome review. It has been on my wish list and I can't wait until I have some extra cash to go out and pick it up.
Can't wait to read this book, I am such a fan of the original by Poe. And I love the name Araby:)
Anything Poe related is always an automatic buy for me. I got this but still haven't read it. Just like the majority of my books. I need more time!

Короне́нко Світла́на Анато́ліївна (16 липня 1960 року, м. Фастів, Київська область) — українська письменниця і журналістка. Живе і працює у Києві.

Життєпис
Народилася в інтернаціональній родині. Батько — українець, мама — білоруска. Перші вірші написала у 5 класі. Друкувалася у фастівській міськрайонній газеті «Перемога». Була учасницею літературної студії при редакції газети.

Закінчила Фастівську середню школу № 9 (тоді  — російську).

З 1979   — студійка літературної студії, якою керував поет Володимир Забаштанський.

Після першої вибухової публікації віршів з  передмовою Івана Драча у «Літературній Україні» (1978)  про молоду поетесу вже писали як про «нашу Рембо».

Була учасницею  Восьмої всесоюзної наради молодих письменників 1984 року у Москві. Тоді ж стала лауреаткою премії московського журналу «Юность» за добірку перекладених російською мовою віршів.

Світлана Короненко — одна з яскравих представниць  плеяди «вісімдесятників», її вірші є в антології молодої поезії «Вісімдесятники», укладеної і виданої Ігорем Римаруком в Едмонтоні в 1990 році.

Закінчила факультет журналістики Київського університету (спеціалізація радіожурналістика) (1985).

1982 видала першу поетичну книжку «Сузір'я веснянок» у видавництві «Радянський письменник». І відразу була прийнята до Спілки письменників з рекомендаціями Івана Драча, Ірини Жиленко, Володимира Забаштанського.

Видала ще дві поетичні книжки «Голос дощу» (видавництво «Молодь»,1988)  і  «Під світлом  летючих псів» (видавництво «Радянський письменник», 1991).

Після 2000-го
2000 року — перше поетичне вибране   «Ворожба на віршах» у  київському видавництві «Ярославів Вал». 2003 року в Росії вийшла поетична  книжка Світлани Короненко «Ворожба на виршах»  у перекладі російською  Миколи Іванова.

Після 2000 року всі книжки С. Короненко виходять у видавництві «Ярославів Вал».

З кінця 90-х і до 2016 року віршів не писала.

Поетичні книжки «Нічний політ»(2009) ї «Зі старого манускрипту» (2014) — це вибрані твори поетеси.

2017-го, після тривалої поетичної перерви, виходить поетична книжка «Вірші з осені». Вона являє собою вже «іншу» Світлану Короненко. Якщо рання Короненко писала білі вірші і верлібри, то Короненко зразка 2017-го — це вже поетеса класичного римованого вірша, часто експериментального.

2018-го виходить поетична книжка «Дебора», 2019-го — «Містерії», 2020-го — «Замовляння на білоруську мову».

На вихід кожної книжки з'являються численні захоплені рецензії, а кожна презентація збирає повні зали слухачів. На її вечорах виступають Дмитро Павличко, Світлана Йовенко, Любов Голота, Павло Мовчан, Василь Герасим'юк, Теодозія Зарівна, Валентина Давиденко, Олена О'Лір, Надія Гаврилюк, Валерій Корнєєв… А вечори ведуть Микола Жулинський, Іван Малкович, Наталка Сумська…

Співпраця з благодійним фондом «Ліга українських меценатів»
З 1999 року розпочала співпрацю з фондом. З 2000-го стала літописцем Міжнародного конкурсу з української мови імені Петра Яцика. https://mon.gov.ua/ua/osvita/zagalna-serednya-osvita/uchnivski-konkursi/mizhnarodnij-konkurs-z-ukrayinskoyi-movi-imeni-petra-yacika

Численні світлини і відео з усіх двадцяти конкурсів, інтерв'ю з президентом Ліги українських меценатів Володимиром Загорієм  та багатьма учасниками, організаторами і меценатами цього, вже легендарного, патріотичного марафону можна знайти в багатьох періодичних — як українських, так і закордонних — паперових виданнях та в інтернеті. Зокрема, за 2020: https://ukurier.gov.ua/uk/articles/volodimir-zagorij-sogodni-u-molodi-vidchutnij-zapi/

Брала інтерв'ю у Петра Яцика і його доньки Наді Яцик.

Про Петра Яцика написала спогад, оприлюднений у книжці спогадів про нього «Меценат, який не відмовився бути українцем» (видавництво «Ярославів Вал»,2003).

Українське радіо
З 1993 року працює на Українському радіо. http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/

Працювала в літературній редакції Всесвітньої служби Радіо Україна (1993—1995), готуючи мистецькі програми для українців діаспори.

З 1995 р. — у літературній редакції Творчого об'єднання мистецьких програм, згодом — радіо Культура: редактором, заступником завідувача літературної редакції, заступником директора радіо Культура.

Була ведучою багатьох прямих ефірів.

Готувала програми з найзнаковішими письменниками України — Павлом Загребельним, Іваном Драчем, Миколою Вінграновським, Володимиром Дроздом, Анатолієм Дімаровим та багатьма іншими.

Сотні поетичних програм з творами  українських і закордонних поетів, підготовлених редактором Світланою Короненко, прозвучали в ефірі Українського радіо, як на Першій програмі УР, так і на Третій.

2006 року  Українське радіо започаткувало Перший всеукраїнський конкурс радіоп'єс під девізом «Відродимо забутий жанр». Світлана Короненко була головою оргкомітету і «мотором» цього унікального проекту. http://www.golos.com.ua/article/183719 Конкурс мав великий резонанс  і щороку організатори отримували сотні робіт. До журі конкурсу входили відомі письменники і актори (Наталка Сумська, Анатолій Хостікоєв, Лариса Хоролець та ін.), а головою журі був Михайло Слабошпицький.

Нагородження переможців конкурсу щоразу перетворювалися на справжні мистецькі дійства і відбувалися у прямому ефірі у Будинку звукозапису Українського радіо. http://slovoprosvity.org/2010/03/10/vidrodymo-zabutyy-zhanr/

https://day.kyiv.ua/uk/article/kultura/dvichi-na-misyac-radiopremiera

Чотири конкурси справді відродили на УР жанр радіоп'єси, і сьогодні у його фондах вже зберігаються десятки радіопостановок сучасних радіодраматургів, переможців конкурсу, у виконанні багатьох провідних акторів сучасності.

Is Frame Denim a Fashion Brand Possible?
Los Angeles: The Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel at 9 a.m. on a Friday is probably the best place to watch Hollywood work. The team behind denim brand Frame, which includes co-founder and creative director Erik Torstensson and CEO Nicolas Dreyfus, has positioned themselves at a lacquered wood booth in the middle of everything.
Dreyfus and Torstensson exchange a few hellos and receive nods. Peter Rahal, the founder of RXBar, quickly appears at their table, eager to flaunt the tag on his T-shirt.
He chuckles, "I couldn't have arranged it better."
The haphazard appearance of Rahal fits perfectly into Torstensson's meticulously crafted narrative. When consumers were more interested in Lululemon leggings than jeans in 2013, Frame, his premium denim venture with Jens Grede, not only succeeded but flourished, evolving into a lifestyle brand rooted in denim rather than a denim brand with nothing else to say.
Tortensson has hired a yet-to-be-named European heavyweight to give the collections a real identity in 2023 because he wants fashion to have credibility. A runway show is in the works. Can Dreyfus and Torstensson successfully expand their denim line outside of Los Angeles, where no other denim brand has done so? The one exception might be Diesel, whose designer, Glenn Martens, has received high praise.) According to Torstensson, the "most exciting thing in American fashion" could be the result of a "mix of what Paris does best — when it comes to everything from image to clothes and products — and what California and LA have in terms of technology and modernity."
Frame clothing is worn by NBA players Tyrese Maxey, Terance Mann, and D'Angelo Russell. BFA) Frame Denim is in a good financial position.
The company's sales in 2022 were about $170 million, up 50% from before the pandemic. (The company declined to disclose figures for 2021.) Due in part to a tripling of e-commerce sales, profitability on an EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) basis is up more than 90% from 2019. Direct-to-consumer channels now account for 30% of the company's revenue, up from 20% prior to the pandemic.)
Dreyfus, who joined the company in March 2020 after co-founding (and selling) the French contemporary brand The Kooples, is confident that Frame can continue expanding its talent pool in Los Angeles by recruiting from other parts of the United States and abroad.
Torstensson attributes Frame's early success to Grede and his slightly unconventional approach.
Torstensson and Grede set the tone for the brand by introducing the standard skinny jean, which was at the time the most popular style, but positioning it as the choice of their supermodel friends. An early win was a collaboration with Karlie Kloss in 2015 on two flares that were extremely long.)
Even though the jeans are still selling ten years later and account for half of the company's revenue, Frame has managed to do something unusual for a typical premium jeans manufacturer: encourage customers to purchase items other than jeans, such as silk blouses and satin mini skirts.
According to Pete Nordstrom, president and chief brand officer of his family's department store chain, "they have built a strong brand around timeless, elevated versatility." He goes on to say that Frame offers "pieces that are the center" of the customer's wardrobe and that the line "always feels relevant."
This is in large part due to the initial framework that Torstensson and Grede established: (Denim)
Frame was never about a particular type of jeans; rather, it was about a way of life. A risk that has paid off was relaunching a men's collection after an initial failure—the first attempt was too focused on denim, according to Torstensson.
For many, the logical next step would be to sell the business as soon as the market starts to favor sellers more, or as soon as possible if the right deal comes along. Grede is less involved in day-to-day operations now that he and his wife, Emma, manage Skims and Good American. Dreyfus, who in 2019 sold The Kooples to Maus Frères, owner of Lacoste, is the kind of executive who can help Frame get ready for that kind of deal.
However, Torstensson insists that the goal is not a sale. He states, "We absolutely do not want to sell the business." He is instead concentrating on developing Frame Denim by continuing to act independently of a denim brand.
