 There is Bruce the Moose, a 500-lb. gentle beast that took Freeman 400 hours to complete. More than 370 feet of rebar form the framework, which is covered in hundreds of metal objects such as radiator covers, oxen shoes, chain links, hammer heads, car parts, chainsaw chains, hinges, horseshoes and wrenches.

For her senior thesis project, Ada turned some of her personal experiences into a range of wearable pieces including metal grills that say “Speak Chinese, We’re in America” written in Chinese, a necklace that says “Speak English, We’re in America,” red earrings that combine a Christmas tree with a firecracker in honor of the Chinese New Year, and even a pair of Chinese slippers recreated in silver metal.

You would expect that Hurco Companies Inc., which invented conversational programming, would be a leader in streamlining the process of getting from print to part faster with CNC machining centers. And it is.

While the global miners and royalty firms have made considerable moves to the upside recently, shell-shocked junior gold stock speculators are waiting for a confirmation of a breakout in bullion before coming back into the more higher risk stocks in the complex. Gold has been beaten back six times from the $1350-$1375 region over the past 5+ years, which has made resource speculators overly cautious of yet another failed attempt at breaking this very strong “Maginot line” of defense at $1375.
