Extractions: hosted by Southern California Edison We had a good turnout for the October meeting which was held on Saturday, October 17, at Southern California Edison in Rosemead. Many thanks to SCE for hosting the meeting, especially for the freshly baked cookies! John Cox opened the meeting with an announcement about the next Club get-together on December 5th. It will be a GMATV event combined with an EV1 Club meeting, similar to the event we held for Kris Trexler. The location is still being determined but it will probably be on the west side of L.A. He then started a round of self-introductions. In addition to EV1 owners there were several prospective owners, speakers and guests from L.A. Department of Water and Power (DWP), SCE, GM Advanced Technology Vehicles (GMATV), Nissan, and Ford, and of course many supporters from Saturn and GM. Sharon Have charger, will travel...

UBC Electric Bike Club We had our first official club meeting of 2005. Voltage electric vehicles kindly offered to let us host it at their new store at 4346 Main St, http://www.ebikes.ca/Events/
Extractions: "Thinking Outside the Four-Wheeled Box" The UBC Electric Bike Club About Ebikes About Us Events Projects ... Funding Last spring we held a very succesfull electric bike show at UBC for our membership drive. We are planning to do the same again sometime this summer, but the date keeps slipping back as other projects take priority. This takes a lot of time and organization to pull off and we will announce when the time is ready. The first sea freight shipment of 30 hub motors arrived in early April, about 5 months later than expected due to various reasons. Most of the 15 or so claimed by members have been sold, and we will be unloading the rest to the general public through the hub motor page , which you should check for more information. Last Friday, hundreds of truckers in the lower mainland formed a convoy and staged a protest drive in response to rising fuel prices cutting into their revenue. We of couse sympathize with the trucker's plight, but the solution is not to reduce gas tax (as they were suggesting) but to pass the rising fuel cost on to the consumer in all the products that are transported by truck. Increasing fuel costs is just about the best thing that could happen to our world right now, and we thought this was an ideal opportunity to get that point out. Unfotunately this came up on very short notice. The convoy started around 9am, and by the time Me, Stefan, and Paul had our banners prepared and strapped to our ebikes it was after noon. We still caught the tail end of the convoy though. The reaction from both drivers and the truckers was great, lots of positive cheering and honking. Our message: "Leave Fuel for the Truckers, Ride an E-BIKE"

Partnerships were formed with local businesses and individuals interested in seeing the project get off to a good start. Affiliations were established with local and national organizations such as Clean Cities and the Electric Vehicle Association of the Americas (presently the Electric Drive Vehicle Association). The Office of the Governor of Oklahoma became interested in the project and with help from other state agencies a grant was secured from the Exxon Overcharge Fund. Another grant was awarded through the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. The department has been instrumental in providing additional funds for further curriculum development and program enhancement.
Extractions: PEV is a club start for all students but mostly engineers interested in electric and alternative vehicles. Our goal and current project is to design and build an electric car. In the next few years, we plan on trying to get the money to design/build an electric Indy-style racecar and a hybrid car.

Some will also be given away in New York, Vermont and Massachusetts, which have tended to follow California's lead in tightening environmental standards for the automotive industry, said GM spokesman Dave Barthmuss.

Extractions: Environmentalists Cite Bank for Environmental Leadership (October 14, 2002) Ohio Savings Bank/AmTrust Bank, one of the top ten mortgage lenders in the U.S., has committed to replacing company vehicles with environmentally friendly hybrid electric vehicles wherever feasible. The bank estimates that it will purchase 24 hybrid electric vehicles in the next two years. "Our objective in making the switch (to hybrids) is to do our part to reduce U.S. dependency on foreign oil," said Gerald Goldberg, co-chairman of the board of Ohio Savings Bank. "Though individually it may seem like it won't make a difference, imagine what would happen if all of the companies in Cleveland, or in the state of Ohio, or even better, across the country, did the same." "In the past few months, two of our senior executives in Cleveland have started driving hybrids, we have a third hybrid based at our Boca Raton, Florida branch office, and we plan to covert many company issued cars over to the hybrids within the next two years," said Goldberg. "While we've had standards in place regarding company-owned vehicles in the past, such as a minimum fuel economy, adopting the policy of purchasing only hybrids makes a much stronger statement."

Profile Sister Action By Marilyn Berlin Snell The move toward "socially responsible investing" in the United States started in the 1960s, as people began to shun companies like Dow Chemical that were profiting from the manufacture of napalm for the Vietnam War. Some investors sold off their "sin stocks," while others used annual shareholder meetings to submit resolutions that called on these companies to stop what they saw as immoral business practices. The Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility was founded during this era. One of its domestic efforts was against the textile manufacturer J. P. Stevens, a flagrant labor-rights violator in the South made infamous by the 1979 film Norma Rae.

I have also been active in developing, modifying, and implementing new curriculum in these areas. I also have an interest and experience participating in and advising student clubs such as Society of Automotive Engineers, Society of Manufacturing Engineers, The Fluid Power Society and the National Association of Industrial Technology. I enjoy these student clubs because they allow the students to apply what they have learned in the classroom in a real world, competitive situations. TEACHING INTERESTS My teaching areas and interests include primarily power, energy, and transportation. I have taught at the university level for over 9 years. Although my primary area is power, energy and transportation, I've taught other subjects in the field of design and manufacturing including: Computer Aided Design and Drafting and Metallic Materials and Processes. Having these experiences allows me to show the importance of how power, energy, and transportation inter-link with manufacturing and industry.
