The newest member of Woodside's Architecture and Site Review Board is resident Bruce Carlsmith, the organizer of the town's recent soapbox derbies and an active volunteer for the Woodside Elementary School.
The Town Council approved his appointment on a 5-2 vote on Nov. 18, with council members Anne Kasten and Peter Mason dissenting.
Mr. Carlsmith will serve the remainder of Rick Anderson's four-year term. Mr. Anderson left the seven-member board in mid-October. Mr. Carlsmith's term expires in February 2015, when he would be up for reappointment by the council.
The ASRB's mission is a tough one: preserve Woodside's "rural" character and natural beauty while still allowing residents the freedom to design homes to match their wealth and ambitions.
Mr. Carlsmith is self-employed. According to his application to join the ASRB, he buys, remodels and manages single-family homes and apartments. Most of his work was done in Sacramento and Marin County, he said.
Along with managing the soapbox derbies, his local volunteer work includes the design and construction of a garden building for the school that includes a potting area, kitchen and greenhouse platform on which he assembled a greenhouse. He also built 14 raised-bed garden boxes at the school.
The whole council, including Mr. Mason and Ms. Kasten, made a standing offer to Mr. Carlsmith to be available for questions and advice. "I look forward to having him tell us how the experience is and how it's going for him when he comes back for reappointment," Ms. Kasten told the Almanac.

Colorado Springs, CO (PRWEB) November 24, 2014
The holiday season is one of the most excitingand stressfultimes of the year. Homeowners often undertake home improvement projects, hoping to leave a positive, lasting impression on family and friends, especially in high-traffic areas such as kitchens and bathrooms. Traditional renovations, however, can be time-consuming, expensive, and stressful. Miracle Method, the nations leading provider of surface refinishing products and services for tile and laminate surfaces, offers promotional pricing nationwide to help alleviate some of that stress.
With the holidays just around the corner, Miracle Method is offering quick, cost-effective solutions to homeowners who seek more affordable, convenient alternatives to traditional remodeling and replacement. Miracle Method can completely refinish damaged, dated or worn kitchen countertops, bathtubs and tile to look brand-new and guest-ready in just 2 to 3 days. And most transformations cost about 75% less than traditional remodels, explains Chuck Pistor, President of Miracle Method, so homeowners can concentrate on whats really important during the holiday season.
The surface refinishing process has opened up a multitude of remodeling options that were once available only to those with clear schedules and extensive budgets. For example, homeowners can easily change outdated bathroom colors and update laminate kitchen countertops with a completely new finish. Treating existing fixtures and surfaces also extends their lives and keeps those materials out of landfills. The end result is a durable, eco-friendly, like-new look and feel that is more practical and convenient than renovation.
While Miracle Methods seasonal sale is nationwide, each franchisee has the autonomy to offer the promotional pricing that best meets the needs of its market. We understand the importance of quick turnaround, affordability, convenience, and quality, says Pistor, especially during the holidays. With more than a million satisfied customers, Miracle Method Surface Refinishing has been relieving the stress of the holiday season for homeowners since 1979.
To schedule your in-home estimate, visit Miracle Method.com or call 888-271-7690. With more than 135 offices across the US and Canada, Miracle Method can help transform nearly any home anywhere, for a stress-free holiday season.

ELEVATING THE MEETING AND SPECIAL EVENT EXPERIENCE
In late August, Manor Vail Lodge, A Destination Hotel, completed a four-month long renovation of its 6,635 sq. ft. conference and meeting venue.

The renovated conference center and meeting venue is now equipped with a state-of-the-art projection system that includes two ceiling mounted Sony projectors that display on two motorized 100-inch screens and a short-throw projector with 100-inch portable screen. It can be setup in any of the conference center's five meeting rooms. The new conference center's one-touch audio system allows presenters to effortlessly toggle between the wireless microphone and a laptop or other preferred device to ensure a seamless presentation delivery. Each meeting room is also equipped with a wall-mounted touch-screen that allows the presenter to easily set up the AV system to their preference. The conference center now also features a four-level LED lighting system to set the perfect functional or ambient lighting for meetings, presentations, receptions, and other special events on the mountains in Vail, CO. Through this renovation upgrade, presenters now have a flexible, high-performance, state-of-the-art audio, video, and lighting system at their fingertips.
In addition to the technological enhancements, the renovation also included an extensive interior redesign.

Applied Predictive Technologies (APT) announced today that Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., the worlds second-largest Quick-Service Restaurant chicken concept based on number of units, has signed an agreement to license APTs Test & Learn Management System. Popeyes is using APT to test strategic initiatives across its network of more than 1,700 domestic restaurants. With this agreement, Popeyes joins over 30 industry-leading restaurant brands, such Wendys, SUBWAY, and Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, that use APTs cloud-based Test & Learn software to evaluate a wide range of business initiatives, including menu strategies, pricing, marketing and media, labor and operations, and capital investments.
To accurately optimize large dollar investments, from media to remodels to pricing, restaurants are increasingly leveraging Test & Learn, the process of trying an idea in some markets, in some restaurants, or with some customers and comparing the performance of a test group to the performance of an optimally-matched control group. Unfortunately, the process of designing, executing, and analyzing tests in the real world is extremely challenging, due to a constant slew of concurrent initiatives in market at any given time, weekly sales volatility, and differences between restaurants and markets, said John Howard, Senior Vice President at APT.
To overcome the inherent challenges of measuring in-market initiatives, an increasing number of restaurant organizations are now leveraging APTs cloud-based Test & Learn software. Mr. Howard said, Test & Learn helps executives answer three key questions about any proposed idea before they take the risk of rolling it out network wide: First, will the idea work? Second, will it work better in some restaurants or in some markets than others? And finally, how can we tailor and target the idea for maximum profitability upon rollout?
APTs software suite for restaurants also includes tools to visually explore restaurant performance data, improve the menu, determine the profile of the best performing sites, and measure price elasticity.
During an initial pilot project with APT, Popeyes used APTs Test & Learn software to determine the incremental impact of investments across local and national media, remodels, and value initiatives.
APTs Test & Learn software has significantly increased our internal data analytics capabilities. Using APT, we have an enhanced perspective of the incremental impact of our media investments, despite the large number of other factors, such as recent reimages, that also impact performance, said Suzanne Miller, VP of Field Marketing and Media at Popeyes. The APT software enables us to better understand the results of both national and local incremental media investments in individual markets, which will guide our media planning strategy going forward.
Mr. Howard added, We are thrilled that Popeyes has decided to adapt the gold standard in Big Data analytics: Test & Learn. We look forward to a partnership with Popeyes as they continually seek to deliver delicious food and an outstanding guest experience.
About APT APT is the worlds largest purely cloud-based predictive analytics software company. APTs Test & Learn software is revolutionizing the way Global 2000 companies harness their Big Data to accurately measure the profit impact of pricing, marketing, merchandising, operations, and capital initiatives, tailoring investments in these areas to maximize ROI. APTs client portfolio features the worlds best known brands, including Walmart, Staples, Lowes, Starbucks, Victorias Secret, Hilton Hotels, and others. APT has offices in Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Bentonville, London, Tokyo, and Taipei. Visit http://www.predictivetechnologies.com to learn more.
