In 1988, the catalog was expanded to 32 full-size pages and became the nation's first full-color pet catalog. Cat and horse supplies were added, and the partners shifted the catalog's focus to include regular pet owners. Toys, pet furniture, and accessories were added to the catalog's existing medications. The catalog's success eventually prompted the veterinarians to give up their clinics and pursue the catalog business full-time.

1998 saw the launch of Pets.com and Petopia, attracting millions of pet supply customers to the web for the first time. Drs. Foster and Smith, which had gone online with a basic homepage a few years earlier, also launched online ordering that year. Drs. Foster and Smith, however, made no attempt to compete with the new Internet retailers on their terms, spending no money on advertising for its website. Instead, the company viewed the website as a support structure for its catalog business. Its existing distribution chain allowed Drs. Foster and Smith to become the first in its industry to promise shipment within 12 hours. Following the 2000 collapse of Pets.com, Foster & Smith's online sales increased substantially. A new telecommunication center was added and order fulfillment upgraded to meet the increased demand.

In an effort to boost catalog distribution, Drs. Foster and Smith offered 100,000 free pet tags to those who joined their mailing list in early 2000. In 2001, Drs. Foster and Smith increased its market share by 20% through the acquisition of Pet Warehouse, a Dayton, Ohio mail-order catalog, in a cash buyout. The acquisition expanded the company's product selection from primarily dog and cat supplies to also include products for aquariums, birds, small pets, and reptiles. After a brief transition period, the Dayton warehouse was closed and its products and employees moved to the Rhinelander location. were added to the Rhinelander warehouse to handle the 7,000 new items. The acquisition also boosted the company's catalog distribution by 5 million.

Doctors Foster and Smith continued to pursue expansion, signing their first advertising contract in July 2002. Around the same time, catalog and internet departments were integrated to increase efficiency. Advertising efforts were expanded to television in 2003 with spots airing on Animal Planet and Lifetime. The ads were aimed at reinforcing the idea that the company's catalog items are hand selected by veterinarians, according to the then marketing director Joe Voellinger.

In 2003, Drs. Foster and Smith moved into product development, introducing its own brands of cat and dog food. The brands were formulated by the company's on-staff veterinarians, aiming at the premium end of the market. Around the same time, company sales were boosted through an auto-replenishment program that automatically billed customers for regularly bought items – food and certain medicines – after an email reminder a few days prior. In exchange for joining the auto-replenishment program, customers received discounted shipping charges. Within a few months, over 2,000 customers were using the program. Also in 2003, a new call center was opened in Hazelhurst, Wisconsin.

In May 2007, Drs. Foster and Smith recalled its Adult Lite dog & cat food products as a precautionary measure because the products' manufacturer, Chenango Valley Pet Foods, had potentially received contaminated rice protein from China. Although no contamination was ever discovered in any Drs. Foster and Smith products, Foster & Smith contacted customers who had recently purchased the product in question. The company reformulated its pet food to no longer contain rice protein, and later switched manufacturers.

Grand Hyatt Washington

Grand Hyatt Washington is a hotel in Washington, D.C., in the United States. The 888-room hotel, located at 1000 H Street NW, primarily serves tourist and business travel. From the time the hotel opened until 2003, it was directly across from the Washington Convention Center and served as a "convention headquarters" hotel for many conventions. The convention center closed, and was demolished in 2004. CityCenterDC, a major office, residential, and retail complex, now occupies the site.

25612859#1

Grand Hyatt Washington

Quadrangle Development broke ground for the Grand Hyatt Hotel on February 21, 1985. The site was directly across the street from the Washington Convention Center. The structure was designed by RTKL Associates, an architectural firm based in Annapolis, Maryland. The hotel featured a vast atrium over the lobby that ran to the roof. The inspiration for the atrium was a similar structure designed by John C. Portman, Jr. and built in Atlanta, Georgia, in the 1960s. The ground floor of the atrium was designed to feature a waterfall and fish lagoon, designed by engineer Howard Fields. At the time of the groundbreaking, planners expected the hotel to have 950 rooms and cost $130 million to construct. By June, the hotel's room count had dropped to 910, and by July the cost had soared to $150 million. By December 1986, the room count had fallen to 907, and a water feature (lagoon and waterfall) had been added to the atrium.

25612859#2

Grand Hyatt Washington

As constructed, the hotel had 907 rooms, and was the city's third-largest hotel. The hotel cost $140 million to build, which included a $1 million, 13-story skylit atrium above the lobby. The water feature in the lobby consisted of a waterfall which began above the lobby and ended below it. The waterfall helped fill and circulate water in a lagoon.

25612859#3

Grand Hyatt Washington

The hotel had five below-ground floors, with the lagoon on the first below-ground level. Banquet space, ballrooms, and meeting rooms existed on the second to fifth below-ground levels. The lobby occupied the first floor. Slightly raised platforms and bridges connected various parts of the lobby to one another, with stairs and escalators, placed at diagonals to H Street NW, led to the below-ground levels. The structure had double-loaded corridors, which meant that guest rooms either faced inward at the atrium or outward at the city. All inward-facing rooms had balconies overlooking the atrium. The north walls of the atrium were decorated with Mediterranean-style pilasters, with a Mediterranean-style arcade formed by segmental arches on the first and second floor. A similar design motif existed on the east and west sides of the atrium, which were stepped back from the first below-ground level. Campanile-like towers, which served as structural supports for the lobby elevators, were set against the south wall. Two gift shops graced the lobby.

25612859#4

Grand Hyatt Washington

The exterior of the hotel featured rhythmic metal-framed windows with spandrels. The base of the building was clad in rusticated stone panels. The corners of the building featured entrances to the hotel lobby bar and to a delicatessen-like restaurant, which helped to alleviate the monotony of the vast expanses of wall. A mansard roof topped the structure. The roofline was punctuated with dormers, each topped by a pediment, which helped to mask the HVAC and mechanical equipment on the roof.

25612859#5

Grand Hyatt Washington

In addition to its regular guest rooms, the hotel had two special types of rooms. The hotel's top floor was called the Regency Club, and each of these rooms (aimed at business travelers) came with special amenities. The hotel also had three presidential suites. Each presidential had a hot tubm, sauna, wet bar, and other amenities. The firm of Hirsh-Bedner oversaw the interior decoration scheme. The public spaces featured marble floors, while the meeting and banquet levels had white maple walls. A large number of original artworks were placed throughout the public spaces of the hotel, including two Cubist sculptural pieces by Guy Dill.

25612859#6

Grand Hyatt Washington

Benjamin Forgey, the architectural critic for "The Washington Post", called the Hyatt's architectural design grand, but not great. Although aesthetically pleasing, he called it "a cold, passionless design." Elements of the structure were clichéd but also efficient, he concluded. "[T]his building is better than a brutal box; we see the architects conscientiously hitting a lot of the right urban design keys without creating a wholly pleasant, let alone a memorable, melody."

25612859#7

Grand Hyatt Washington

Quadrangle Development put the now-888-room Grand Hyatt Hotel up for sale, and in 2011 Host Hotels & Resorts agreed to place a $15 million deposit on the building to prevent another bid from being entertained. But Host Hotels withdrew from the negotiations on December 18, losing its deposit.

25612859#8

Grand Hyatt Washington

However, Host Hotels reversed itself in 2012, and on July 22 announced it had agreed to buy the Grand Hyatt Hotel for $400 million. The sale was the largest hotel sale to date in the history of the District of Columbia. Host Hotels rebranded the hotel as the Grand Hyatt Washington.

Goose Creek Oil Field

The Goose Creek Oil Field is a large oil field in Baytown, Texas, on Galveston Bay. Discovered in 1903, and reaching maximum production in 1918 after a series of spectacular gushers, it was one of the fields that contributed to the Texas Oil Boom of the early 20th century. The field was also the location of the first offshore wells in Texas, and the second group of offshore wells in the United States. Consequences of the development of the Goose Creek field included an economic boom and associated influx of workers, the founding and fast growth of Baytown, and the building of the adjacent Baytown Refinery, which is now the 2nd largest oil refinery in the United States with a capacity of 584,000 barrels per day. The field remains active, having produced over of oil in its 100-year history.

25612907#1

Goose Creek Oil Field

The Goose Creek field is also the first place where subsidence of overlying terrain was attributed to the removal of oil from underneath. On the Goose Creek field, subsidence has damaged houses, roads, and businesses, and much of the oil field that was on land in the early years of its development is now submerged in Tabbs Bay. Subsidence-induced motion along faults on the field also caused the only earthquake of local origin ever felt in the Houston area.

25612907#2

Goose Creek Oil Field

The Goose Creek field is located along the northern shoreline of Tabbs Bay, an arm of Galveston Bay, at the point where Goose Creek exits to the sea. It is directly south of the city of Baytown, and about east of downtown Houston. Elevations on the field range from approximately at the highest well locations next to developed parts of Baytown, on the north side of the field, to submerged and partially submerged areas within Tabbs Bay itself. Much of the field is close to sea level. The total productive area of the field, including the submerged portion, is approximately .

25612907#3

Goose Creek Oil Field

Alexander Drive, a spur of Texas State Highway 146, runs through the field. West of Goose Creek it rejoins Highway 146 to go over Tabbs Bay on the Fred Hartman Bridge.

25612907#4

Goose Creek Oil Field

The oil field is an accumulation of petroleum underneath a deep salt dome, one of several such fields in the Gulf of Mexico region. It was the first oil field to be found in a deep rather than a shallow salt dome, and its discovery led to the search for others like it; the finds that resulted were some of the largest oil fields in the United States. The sedimentary layers over the dome are themselves arched into a shape conforming to the underlying dome, so the structure forms a perfect trap for hydrocarbons which would otherwise migrate to the surface. The field contains 30 separate pools or producing horizons, ranging in depth from 800 to . The oil-bearing strata under the salt dome consist of porous sands with some interspersed clay.

25612907#5

Goose Creek Oil Field

The Goose Creek field is the first place where subsidence of the land over the oil field was definitively attributed to the extraction of petroleum. Subsidence over the Goose Creek field is well documented and particularly dramatic; parts of the field which were once above-water are now wholly or partially submerged, and the area of subsidence almost exactly conforms to the boundary of the productive region. The connection between extraction and subsidence was first recognized by geologists W.E. Pratt and D.W. Johnson, who published their findings in a 1926 paper. By this year, after about ten years of active pumping, most of the productive area of the field had subsided three feet, and the submerging of the facilities had already become obvious to field operators.

25612907#6

Goose Creek Oil Field

Along with the subsidence, surface faulting has been observed, and motion along these faults – although minimal compared to motion along faults in areas in which the seismic activity is due to tectonic forces – has been sufficient to damage buildings and be felt in the local area. One of the faults in the Goose Creek area, first observed in 1925, shows a vertical displacement of 0.4 meter, along a length of over 700 meters.

25612907#7

Goose Creek Oil Field

Subsidence of land due to either oil or groundwater extraction is now widely recognized, and the Gulf Coast is one of many places in the world in which it has become a serious problem. In the present day, oil fields underneath sensitive areas, such as cities, are usually re-pressurized with water or gas to prevent the land above them from collapsing into the vacated space.

25612907#8

Goose Creek Oil Field

Bubbles of methane gas coming up in the shallow water along the shoreline of Galveston Bay alerted early prospectors in 1903 to the possibility of an oil field in the area. The first attempts to develop the field followed shortly, but none of the wells produced economic quantities of oil; indeed it was not until 1908 that oil was found at all, and the Producers Oil Company drilled 20 separate times in a failed attempt to create a well that flowed sufficiently to turn a profit. The American Petroleum Company had better luck, and their -per-day gusher on August 23, 1916 brought in the field. The subsequent fast influx of workers and equipment engendered a pair of boomtowns – Pelly and Goose Creek – adjacent to the field. In 1917 Ross S. Sterling, president of Humble Oil Company, chose to build a refinery on vacant land just northwest of the oil field, reorganizing his firm as the Humble Oil and Refining Company in order to accomplish the task. Humble Oil would go on to become Exxon, and the Baytown Refinery would eventually become the largest refinery in the United States. In addition, in 1919 Sterling arranged for the construction of Baytown on land adjacent to his new refinery.

25612907#9

Goose Creek Oil Field

High oil prices also fueled the field's fast development. The First World War had caused a run-up in the price, which reached $1.35 per barrel by 1917. During that year the average well was producing over , and the biggest gusher also occurred during 1917 – a well drilled by the Simms-Sinclair Company which spewed , remaining out of control for several days.

25612907#10

Goose Creek Oil Field

The Goose Creek Oil Field was the location of the first offshore wells in Texas. They were drilled in shallow water from piers like the ones in on the Summerland field in Summerland, California twenty years before, which were the first in the world. Due to subsidence many of the wells which were originally on land are now wholly or partially submerged.

25612907#11

Goose Creek Oil Field

Because of the sinking of the land containing the field, the State of Texas sued the Humble Oil Co. for rights to the field, as technically the field had ceased to be on land but had joined the state water bottomlands, which were not subject to private ownership. Along with title to the field and the various private parcels within it, the State sought to collect the revenues from oil and gas produced since the land went underwater. The State lost the suit, with the court ruling that the subsidence was caused by the extraction of oil, and was therefore an "act of Man" rather than a natural event. Humble Oil continued to produce from the field.

25612907#12

Goose Creek Oil Field

Parts of the field have subsided nine feet from the original ground surface elevation since production began, while subsidence in adjacent Baytown has reached approximately six feet. Not all of the subsidence in the field and adjacent areas is due to oil withdrawal; some is from pumping of groundwater from water wells.

25612907#13

Goose Creek Oil Field

Peak production of the field had been reached by 1918, before the street grid for Baytown had even been drawn up. In that year the field produced of oil (more than the current estimated recoverable reserve). Some of the infrastructure improvements built during this year were the railroad connecting the oil field to the site of the future refinery, and pipelines crossing under the bay connecting storage tanks to the mainland. On May 24, 1919, a tropical storm destroyed over 1,450 of the flimsy wooden oil derricks erected on the field. After the production peak in 1918, field output began a slow decline, dropping from the high of in 1918 to only 1,100 in 1943. Production increased again in the 1960s with the development of water injection technologies, but then began falling off as the field became depleted. The field's major operators in 1984 were Exxon, Gulf Oil, Mobil, Monsanto, Coastal, and Enderli Oil. Many of the major oil companies began divesting their onshore operations in the U.S. around this time, selling them to independents, as opportunities overseas became more attractive. The field changed hands several times, going to Wood Energy Corp. in 1996, and then to Texas American Resources in 1999. They operated the field until 2006, at which time Bakersfield, California-based Foothills-Resources bought the field. Foothills immediately began a remapping and 3D-seismic survey program to identify new development opportunities. At this time the daily production from the field was around of oil per day; Foothills-Resources claimed that the field retained of proven reserves. In late 2007 they put in new wells, but the entire field was shut down for two weeks in September 2008 due to Hurricane Ike, the eye of which passed directly over the field, and destroyed or damaged considerable oil and gas infrastructure in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. In spite of the direct hit by Ike, and the field being right at sea level or in shallow water, subject to storm surge, little long-term damage occurred; nevertheless the field was inoperative for two weeks. On February 11, 2009, Foothills filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the bankruptcy court for Delaware.
