The Navy, NASA Ames and the city of Mountain View have been debating the future of Hangar One for years. But discus- sions were at a relative standstill over the past several weeks after Navy officials announced they had resolved once and for all to strip the historic structure’s toxic siding away and leave a bare skeleton behind — an option preservationists said would spell the end for the hangar. Before its discussions with Eshoo, the Navy reportedly was trying to enter into a contract by the end of the month to remove the siding.

  • Understanding Trader Joe's
    Understanding Trader Joe’s May 2006 Coriolis Research Ltd. is a strategic market research firm founded in 1997 and based in Auckland, New Zealand. Coriolis primarily works with clients in the food and fast moving consumer goods supply chain, from primary producers to retailers. In addition to working with clients, Coriolis regularly produces reports on current industry topics. Recent reports have included an analysis of Retail Globalization: Who’s Winning” and “Understanding Costco.” The coriolis force, named for French physicist Gaspard Coriolis (1792-1843), may be seen on a large scale in the movement of winds and ocean currents on the rotating earth. It dominates weather patterns, producing the counterclockwise flow observed around low-pressure zones in the Northern Hemisphere and the clockwise flow around such zones in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the result of a centripetal force on a mass moving with a velocity radially outward in a rotating plane. In market research it means understanding the big picture before you get into the details. PO BOX 10 202, Mt.
