F ederal Contractors Conference The AGC Federal Contractors Conference is the only national event where AGC contractors and federal agency personnel can meet in a collaborate forum to review federal construction contracting issues from around the United States. The conference is designed to allow open dialogue between contractors and the federal agencies to discuss contracting issues critical to the construction industry. Top decision makers from the federal agencies with large construction programs will be in attendance.

These insightful and highly productive exchanges have solidified the need for both federal construction contractors and the federal construction agencies to share information on a wide variety of issues, foster better communication and create real solutions.

If you are engaged in any aspect of constructing, designing or planning a federal project and you are a general contractor, specialty contractor, service/supplier, attorney or any other important stakeholder already engaged in the federal market, this conference has a place for you. If you are interested in learning more about federal contracting opportunities and how to get started, this conference is a great place to begin your learning experience. AGC contractor members who perform federal work are served by two occupational divisions - the Federal and Heavy Construction Division and the Highway & Transportation Division. The occupational divisions provide members from specific industry segments the opportunity to stay informed of emerging issues and trends that are relevant to the type of construction work they perform every day.

G etting to Boston via A irplane: Business travelers flying in to Boston arrive at the Boston Logan International Airport, New ,# " #$ $" #! "$ $ $ " The airport has 94 gates with contact jet bridges and nine regional jet gates at the airport and more than 40 airlines fly nonstop to more than 100 domestic and international destinations. It generates $7 billion in economic activity each year.

G round Transpiration: Taxis are typically in plentiful supply at Logan Airport and are available at the airport taxi stand. But cab fare is not cheap; Boston is now among the five most expensive large cities for taxi service. Note that cab fare to and from Logan Airport includes additional surcharges and tolls for the tunnels. Using one to get to and from your hotel in Boston is a good option if you prefer not to lug their suitcases up and down the stairs of subway stations. To save some money, you can always take a taxi to a subway station and travel more economically around town. Van and Wagon taxi cabs may charge an extra $5 for excessive luggage.

Boston can be subject to poor winter weather conditions, which may cause taxis to be in short supply and in these cases taxis may accept double fares. When a taxi is occupied by more than one party, each will be charged the regular fare, less two dollars ($2.00). Under these conditions there shall be no charge for any tolls or fees. Under these conditions there is a minimum charge of $2.50 for each party. ( % %#$ ,$ ' $ $ #$" ( $ %$ " " !% $" #! "$ $ # % # $ renting a car may be the right choice. Before you decide to rent, check out the prices at different rental agencies (there are many), and do try to book early, which may give you a chance at a better rate. Most agents offer a convenient pick-up service at Logan Airport, so if you are flying into town, see whether your agency has one.

Public Transportation: The public transportation system in Boston is excellent; many locals take & $ $ * + ) short for MBTA, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. At Logan Airport, free buses stop at all terminals and take you right to the Blue Line Airport T station ($2 from there). Or, there is the new T "Silver Line". For $2, its buses pick you up right at your terminal, and take you on their own track into downtown and the Red Line T's South Station. That $2 - per trip - gets you virtually everywhere in Boston. The T has now converted to the "Charlie System" and no longer uses tokens. Electronic Fare Vending Machines can be found at nearly all subway stations. There vending machines allow you to get around using either a paper CharlieTicket, which the machine will give you, or a plastic CharlieCard, which you can obtain at various local stores, through the MBTA's website, or at a select few T stations. If you are able to get your hands on a CharlieCard, you are given discounts individual fares which you do not get using the CharlieTicket. Subway trips cost $2 with a CharlieTicket (or cash on board) and $1.70 with a CharlieCard. Similarily, buses cost $1.50 with the CharlieTicket (or cash on board) and $1.25 with the CharlieCard. Both CharlieTickets and CharlieCards can be used multiple times and can be recharged at the Fare Vending Machines.

Weather: Packing for a trip to Boston can be tricky because the weather is hard to predict. Generally speaking, winter months are bitterly cold and snowy, so pack your boots and overcoats. But it is important to remember that Boston weather can change on a dime; sometimes, the area will see a random 65 degree day in the dead of winter. Spring months can bring unexpected rain and temperatures ranging from freezing to sweltering, but there's just something about Boston in the Spring that you can't beat. The snow is gone (usually) and the flowers in the Garden are starting to bloom. Summers are typically hot and humid. As the season changes from summer to fall, the leaves turn to glorious colors.

Fall brings cooler, crisper air (although there is still the chance for an Indian summer). With Boston, its best to pack layers.

Off the Clock: M ar ket (M K T): For business professionals ready for a night of revelry, head to the Market in downtown Boston. The lounge, wrapped in refurbished wood from an old Maine barn, features an impressive circular bar, red décor, and comfortable seating for dinner and cocktails. The main bar is a classic setting surrounded with flatscreen tvs, sure to cover every game being aired on any given evening. The upper floors feature wrap around seating, VIP areas and private bars on each floor. The Market is one of Boston's newest upscale lounges and is popular amongst locals. In addition to offering 10 cent wings on Football Night every Monday, the lounge also hosts live local bands on Thursdays and multiple Djs for Market Saturdays. The swanky nightspot is opened every day until 2 a.m. 120 Water St. Boston, MA 02109 A rts & C ulture: If you've got some spare time, explore Boston's flourishing arts and culture scene by taking advantage of one of the city's many museums, theaters, galleries, or musical performances. You can visit The Strand Theatre, a 1,400 seat house in Dorchester that hosts a wide variety of entertainment from Gospel to #! " " & # $ $ #$ !

The World’s Most Accurate Thermal Mass Flow Meter.

QuadraTherm 640i/780i ®

NEVER HIGH ACCURACY : FOUR-SENSOR : MASS FLOW METER

before possible.

From Sierra’s beginning over forty years ago, Founder Dr. John G. Olin was driven by his vision to design the world’s most accurate thermal mass flow meter. Two revolutionary technologies—QuadraTherm® and qTherm™, have made his vision a reality.

QuadraTherm Sensor This revolutionary new four-sensor design isolates forced convection (the critical variable for measuring gas mass flow rate) by neutralizing unwanted heat-transfer components, like sensor stem conduction, one of the major causes of false flow reading inaccuracies.

qTherm Brain qTherm is a proprietary algorithm set that uses QuadraTherm sensor inputs to solve the First Law of Thermodynamics (Heat Energy In = Heat Energy Out) for thermal dispersion technology. Accuracy never before possible is the remarkable result!

Accuracy: +/- 0.5% of Reading Multivariable: Mass flow rate, temperature & pressure Revolutionary QuadraTherm® four-sensor design DrySense™ no-drift sensor with lifetime warranty qTherm™ living, learning “Brain” manages all inputs Dial-A-Pipe™: Change pipe size Dial-A-Gas™: Change gas type qTherm Gas Library: 18 gases & mixtures (growing & improving) Global Agency Approvals: ATEX, IECEx, CE, cFMus Digital Communications Solutions: HART, Profibus DP, MODBUS, RTU, Foundation Fieldbus
