Designed and built in-house by our staff of engineers, this robotic “Drum Machine,” called the Gluing Gantry, ensures that every Evans head has a true collar. A series of vacuum fixtures holds the film in place for each head while the robotic gluing arm circles above the hoop and dispenses epoxy. The result is a drumhead that tunes both easily and consistently. At Evans, we do it right the first time. And every time. Check out what Peter Erskine has to say about Evans drumheads at www.evansdrumheads.com PO Box 290 • Farmingdale, NY 11735 We’ve been making the world’s finest sticks for years. And experience tells us that there are no shortcuts when it comes to making a stick. There is, however a very good short- cut when choosing one. The journey from wooden dowel to finished drumstick is a tough one. Each stick makes its way through the hands of several craftsmen before it leaves us. And at every test, there’s always the chance of getting turned into firewood. But it does get easier when our sticks reach the store. Because once you feel a pair in your hands, you’ll appreciate the time it spent in ours.

  • Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary
    Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary Dear Wind Powering America Colleague, We are pleased to present the Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary, which reflects the accomplishments of our state wind working groups, our programs at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and our partner organizations. The national WPA team remains a leading force for moving wind energy forward in the United States. At the beginning of FY07 (October 2006), there were 11,078 megawatts (MW) of wind power installed across the United States, with an additional 3,000 MW projected in both 2007 and 2008. When our partnership was launched in 2000, there were 2,500 MW of installed wind capacity in the United States. In 1999, only four states had more than 100 MW of installed wind capacity. Sixteen states now have more than 100 MW installed. We anticipate five to six additional states will join the 100-MW club in 2007, and by the end of the decade, more than 30 states will have passed the 100-MW milestone. WPA celebrates the 100-MW milestones because the first 100 megawatts are always the hardest and lead to significant experience, recognition of the wind energy’s benefits, and expansion of the vision of a more economically and environmentally secure and sustainable future. WPA continues to work with its national, regional, and state partners to communicate the opportunities and benefits of wind energy to a diverse set of stakeholders. WPA now has 29 state wind working groups (welcoming New Jersey, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri in 2006) that form strategic alliances to communicate wind’s benefits to the state stakeholders.

A major purpose of this annual Review is to provide a forum for the presentation of ideas, as well as to inform the general public, of trends in the world of glass. The Review consists of three parts: a section illustrating 100 objects chosen by a panel from the slides submitted, a com­ mentary on the selections by The Corning Museum's Curator of Twentieth-Century Glass, and a 17-page check list of all publications (books and periodical articles) related to contemporary glass, acquired by the Library of The Corning Museum of Glass in 1981. Inasmuch as that Library attempts to be all-inclusive in its holdings, this annual check list should serve as a valuable tool to collectors, scholars, and others. Each autumn the Museum mails more than 4,500 announcements and applica­ tion blanks for the current competition to glassmakers throughout the world.
