I work at Deere. The Wolverines are very comfortable. I've been wearing the same pair for 2 years. I am kind of old, so insoles make a huge impact when you are on concrete floors for most of the day. I bought a really good set of insoles about 4 months ago and it made a world of difference. The internal metguards are formable, so I was very uncomfortable the first week or so until they broke in. I have a high instep. I also have Timberline (stylish and comfortable, but no metguard), and Redwing work shoes (more durable, less comfortable). Good luck at Deere - I started there contract and I was converted to direct. They appreciate ISU engineers!

I'm assuming your contract is through Volt, if this is the case you are not going to get any money. If you have an office job and only need to walk through the production area occasionally I would recommend keeping your safety shoes in a draw and wearing your dress shoes in every day.
Thanks everyone for the feedback. I have been there 3 days now and have realized the contracting agencies really don't know squat. 1.) I really don't need the boots. As just previously mentioned I will wear dress shoes normally and if I have to cross an for a meeting or whatever I'll need some protection but can always just wear the slip over "cloppers". The other guy starting with me bought just steel toed boots because of his recruiter so they won't even work and of course they're worn now so he can't take them back. (So thank you CF!) 2.) That being said I'll still probably buy some. I am still looking at the slip on ones. I will only need to be out of the office maybe twice a week for meetings so I could get by without but the cloppers are cumbersome.

Sedu Revolution Professional Salon Set
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...DianaHairBlackNormal HairDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairThe Best Flat Iron Ever!!!!!I will never purchase a different flat iron in my life. I absolutely love it. I have wavy to curly hair but its real thick. I washed it and let it air dry. This flat iron made it completely straight with no blow dryer. I couldn't believe how natural and shiny it looked. The ultimate test was to try it on my sister and daughter. They both have very curly and coarse hair. Well with no blow drying it did its job. Their hair looked pin straight and shiny. That's when I was really sold on it. I would recommend this to anyone. I am so happy I finally found one that works for my entire family.posted Oct 23, 2013Link to this post

Sedu Revolution 6000i Hair DryerLaurieCA, USAHairBlackOily HairThick or Coarse HairGlad I Splurged For My SeduI've been using the Revolution 6000i for over two months now, and I quite like it. Needless to say, my retired 15-yr.-old Conair can't compete with today's hair dryers. I have thick, straight, long Asian hair that suffers flyaways more than frizz. I appreciate the Sedu's setting options (cool/low/high heat, hi/lo speed, ionic on/off) but mostly leave the unit on high heat/hi speed/ionic, which leaves my hair dry, smooth, and shiny in less than 10 minutes without making my head feel uncomfortably hot. My hair is typically dripping wet at the ends when I turn the dryer on, and the ends are barely damp when I turn it off. In addition to the high price point, downsides are that the unit is a bit heavy (though not weighty enough to be a deal breaker for me) and how easy it is to accidentally change the settings mid-use. The controls are located on the handle, and for lack of better terminology I'll describe them as teeter-totter switches (vs. sliders). I tend to inadvertently turn the speed from hi to low when I adjust my grip on the handle, but it's easy enough to flip the switch back to my desired setting. I am very happy with my Sedu. One extra note: I am very impressed with the Revolution 6000i's packaging—nicely designed and great quality, much like the product inside.posted Oct 13, 2013Link to this post

I have long frizzy curly hair and my 2000 watt dryer just bit the dust. I was apprehensive to order this dryer as the wattage is much lower; however to my surprise this dryer is very hot and powerful. My drying time is greatly reduced. My hair is left sleek and frizz free. Love this dryer!posted Sep 24, 2013Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...Rajveer S.Hayward, CAHairLight BrownNormal HairColor Treated HairI Love It!I have used many different straighteners. This one is by far one of the best. I had a Chi and in the beginning it was great, but over time it didn't heat up all the way. For those of you who are complaining about instructions; there are a million different ways to straighten hair. First of all, make sure that you use a heat protector. Your hair won't get damaged and it can handle the heat. Second of all, straighten your hair in layers. It makes it easier. It also makes everything look better. Use 450 degree if you are comfortable with it, it makes it faster; the hotter it is. If you aren't comfortable with it, change it to less heat. When you straighten, start from your scalp, don't just grab the middle. I hope this helps. I also recommend using "argan oil" if you use a lot of heat, it's really good. It's been fixing my damaged hair! Good luck to you all trying this straightener. For me, it's done it's job! :)posted Sep 21, 2013Link to this post

Sedu Revolution 6000i Hair DryerHolly G.FloridaHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairGreat DryerI ended up buying this dryer after reading the reviews. This is a lightweight dryer which helps me a lot since I have a bad neck and back and because it dries my thick hair a lot faster it helps to alleviate the pain from holding my hands over my head and standing for a long time.All the ones I have previously owned were too heavy and just did not dry my hair well. This dryer got hot enough but didn't make my hair frizzy.
My stylist made several suggestions about buying a better and more expensive flat iron and hair dryer.. glad I listened to her and glad I found this website. Some things you just can't skimp on and expect a good outcome This was a great deal with the offer of trading in the old hair dryer (what a smart idea).

Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...LauraLos Angeles, CAHairDark BrownNormal HairBig DisappointmentI just bought this flat iron last week, and I should listen to my friend's advice get me a Chi flat iron instead.
The problem with this iron can't get the job done and they are pretty expensive. Funny thing is, it doesn't come with any instruction paper and when I turn the iron to 450 degree and the light just kept blinking. Half way when you using and the light will turn to RED. What that mean??? Should I rerun it?

Originally the name of Dhanbad was Dhanbaid which seems to have been derived from the word Dhan (paddy) and baid, i.e., the paddy land. The Dhanbad originated from the district of Manbhum occupied by Mundari or Kolarian races in the wilderness of South undivided Bihar. In the seventh century A.D. some information is available from the account of the travels of Hieun Tsang. These accounts narrate existence of a powerful kingdom which comprised the district and adjoining areas, ruled by Sasanka.[4]
Geography and climate[edit]
Dhanbad has an average elevation of 227 m (745 ft). Its geographical length (extending from North to South) is 15 miles (24 km) and the breadth (stretching across East to West) is 10 miles (16 km). It shares its boundaries with West Bengal in the Eastern and southern part, Dumka & Giridih in the North and Bokaro in the west. Dhanbad comes under the Chota Nagpur Plateau.

Google Music Problems
I have two problems: 1. Google play will not allow me to change album art. 2. I no longer have the option to play a play list. I can add it to the queue but not directly play. Any suggestions?
Re: Google Music Problems
Change album art in the desktop browser version of Google Play Music. It's much easier that way.

Re: Google Music Problems
There isn't a need for a "Play" selection, because you can just double tap a track to play it.
I'll see if I encounter the same problem with album art.

Re: Google Music Problems
But this IS aproblem if I want to play a playlist when looking at all my playlists. Before, I tapped on the small arrow on the lower right hand corner then tapped "Play." Now double-tapping a playlist does NOT play the list but only opens it. Then I have to double tap on the first song to start the list. Therefore the new method is longer and slower than the old one. Did someone complain about the ability to directly play a song or playlist? Why was this changed? I hate "updates" that make the experience worse. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Re: Google Music Problems
I see what you're saying. I'd encourage you to use the link I included in my previous post to make your suggestions to Google. Just curious, though--is it really that much more of an extra step for you to tap the playlist and then double tap the song? Because what you describe as your old method was still two taps--one tap to bring up the playlist menu, and then another tap to play it.

Re: Google Music Problems
You're right. It's not that big of a deal...the extra tap. I just don't understand the advantage to changing what was already working. The album art is a bigger deal and I did as you suggested. Thanks. Any suggestion on a simple way to pin music to the ext sd card?

The 7 PM performance, featuring songs and narration from the show, boasts the talents of Tony nominee Michael McElroy, Nathan Lee Graham, Katie Thompson, Andrew Durand, Blake Daniel, Doreen Montalvo, MJ Rodriguez and Rania Salem Manganaro. Eric Hoff directs.
The concert, according to press notes, takes place on "the 40th Anniversary of the event from which the musical takes its inspiration: the UpStairs Lounge Fire, a 1973 arson attack at a New Orleans gay bar that killed 32 people and remains the deadliest massacre in U.S. LGBT history."
"It's shocking to me that most people have never heard of the UpStairs Lounge Fire, given its significance," Vernon said in an earlier statement. "Even as a queer studies major, the fire was never mentioned in any of my classes. Now, with the recent violence and hate crimes occurring around NYC, it feels more important than ever to tell this story and reclaim this event."

- Bob Vila TV Shows >
- Victorian Restoration > Episode 4: Electrical Systems and Wiring and Upstairs Framing
Installing French Doors
Bob gets an update on the progress taking place at the Victorian renovation project. Rough electrical work is underway, as is the home's data and video wiring, which will form the backbone for the advanced communications, security, and entertainment systems. Workers are framing a new addition, and are also at work on the second floor, where a Kohler tub and new Pella windows are being installed.
- Part 1: First Floor Framing and Barn Renovation/Demolition
- Part 2: Shoring Up the Attic With Supports
- Part 3: Interior Framing and Bathtub Installation
- Part 4: Installing French Doors
- Bob talks with Ray Adams (from Pella Windows) about the new French doors to be installed in the library. The door is from the Architect's Series. It's a simulated divided light door. The glass is Pella's Insulshield glass, an argon filled glass with low-e coating. It's one large piece of glass with extruded aluminum on the outside, for the muntin bars, and all wood on the inside. This makes it more energy-efficient than a true divided light door.
Originally there had been a window where the doors will be installed. Contractor Matt Alexander cut it out, put in bigger studs, and headed it off with 2 x 10s with a 3/4 sandwich. The door comes with nailing fins that fold up at 90 degrees The installers will nail through the fins to attach the door behind the cladding.
For waterproofing, the installers apply a bead of sealant underneath the door at the sill, and a bead behind the fin. The most important part of the installation is ensuring that the door is plumb, so it will swing properly.
Located just five miles from downtown Boston, Bob's scouts discovered a Victorian-era house in a neighborhood of family homes on tree-lined streets that was past due for a full-scale renovation.
The home's new owners, a work-at-home family, have set goals to modernize the home's floor plan, update the building's mechanical and electrical systems, and add home office and work spaces for two busy professionals.

NEWPORT, R.I. - For better and for worse, America's borders have always been highly porous. Far from being a new and unprecedented danger to America, the illicit underside of globalization is actually an old American tradition dating back centuries. Peter Andreas, professor in the department of political science and the Watson Institute for International Studies at Brown University, argues that our "smuggler nation" not only subverts U.S. laws but also helped to fuel America's evolution from a remote British colony to the world's pre-eminent superpower.
Andreas will expound on his research when he presents "Smuggler Nation: How Illicit Trade Made America" on Tuesday, March 5 at 6:30 p.m. in Salve Regina's DiStefano Lecture Hall, located in the Antone Academic Center on Lawrence Ave. Presented by the Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy, the lecture is free and open to the public. As seating is limited, those interested in attending are asked to RSVP to email@example.com or 401-341-2927.
In tracing America's long and often tortuous relationship with the murky underworld of smuggling, Andreas provides a much-needed antidote to today's hyperbolic depictions of out-of-control borders and growing global crime threats. Urgent calls by politicians and pundits to regain control of the nation's borders suffer from a severe case of historical amnesia, nostalgically implying that they were ever actually under control. This is pure mythology, says Andreas.
Andreas was previously an Academy Scholar at Harvard University, a Research Fellow at the Brookings Institution, and an SSRC-MacArthur Foundation Fellow on International Peace and Security. He has written numerous books, published widely in scholarly journals and policy magazines, presented Congressional testimony, written op-eds for major newspapers, and provided frequent media commentary.

Lonnie Ali
Oprah.com | May 07, 2007
Lonnie Ali, wife of boxing legend Muhammad Ali, is not only married to a champion—she's a champion in her own right as part of the Fight for MORE campaign, whose purpose is to help Parkinson's disease patients and the millions of people who care for them. Gayle talks to Lonnie about being a caregiver to Muhammad and her work to educate and empower others living with Parkinson's.
It has been more than 20 years since Muhammad was diagnosed with Parkinson's, a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that often impairs motor skills and speech. Although there is no cure, Lonnie says she wants to convey the message that it is a manageable disease. "Engage them, keep active, keep your life going," she says. "There's no reason to let this disease define who you are."
As those living with Parkinson's know, the disease affects not only the person afflicted with the condition but also their family, friends and caregivers, Lonnie says. She adds that the Fight for MORE campaign's mission is to provide support, educational tools and resources for the caregivers, who often lack a community of support or the knowledge they need to administer the best care possible. "It's all about empowering the caregiver to do the best job that they can do for that patient," she says.
Lonnie says the disease hasn't affected Muhammad's emotions, reasoning or thinking, although it has impaired his ability to walk and speak. She says they both remain positive and focused on what he
do, rather than his limitations. "I have never in my life heard Muhammad talk about regrets, 'Why me, why did I ever get this disease?'" she says.
Their strong relationship and faith enable the couple to keep up the fight, Lonnie says. "I have that history with Muhammad, and I know the valuable contribution he has made to the world and the contribution he has left to give," she says.

I like em all but last year I got to see the cavs win which was cool, but my favorite one I went too was the Raptors game where we totally waxed em and Henderson came in and had some sickk dunks.
It's hard to narrow it down for me.
I was fortunate enough to see wins against LeBron and Kobe....
But, I really enjoyed the win against Sacramento last year. The first half was an all-out highlight reel blowout by the Bobcats. It was one nasty dunk or alley-oop after another.
And then, Tyreke Evans was absolutely brilliant in the second half to make it interesting, with a close Bobcats win in the final minute.
Good times.......
I like em all but last year I got to see the cavs win which was cool, but my favorite one I went too was the Raptors game where we totally waxed em and Henderson came in and had some sickk dunks.
My favorite game was against the Grizzlies when Gerald caught Feltons miss and layed it in as tie expired....that game was awesome.
I think I'd have to go with the Grizzlies game as well. So exciting. We had to make a comeback which added to the drama. Then there was Gerald's chasedown block, OJ Mayo's contested three to tie the game, and the tip in at the buzzer. Perfect.
The runner ups would be the Bucks game and the first playoff game. The Bucks game was the first I attended where the crowd was as loud as it could be. Everyone was into it and the team fed off of it and won in OT. I don't think the first playoff game needs to have an explanation.
Gotta go w/ the playoff game. Even though they lost, I've never been a part of something that loud and crazy.
the grizzles game by far as well i have been to less than 10 games total but that was my second home bobcats and by far the best.
1. Game 3 vs Magic. So loud and intense even though we lost, great atmosphere.
2. 2006 Triple OT win vs Lakers. Kobe fouled out with 58. Gforce, Okafor and felton all went off. Loved seeing all the Kobe jerseys going home in shame.
Im gonna go with a stretch of games. Last year around March 20th to April 4 or something like that. Ending with an overtime win against Milwaukee. We had a stretch of 5 home games. Won 4 outta 5 and going into the games and coming out were a feeling not often seen in CLT. Everyone started to realize we were gonna be in the playoffs, and we were winning in streaks. Probably the most optimistic i've seen Time warner Cable. Good buzz to have. Kinda felt a little relief, a little excitment, a little validation for having season tickets to 5 non-winning seasons. Just felt good.
Into the crevasse!
"Climb down Lemon, Climb down"
OT win against bucks right before playoffs. Jax nails a three right over carlos delfino's face after crossing him up 3 times and we win off of a offensive rebound tip from chandler to felton. The place was rocking! They also still had bogut at this point so it was a huge win all around.
close second, Game 3 of the finals vs. Magic.....Loud, Proud, Intense.....if only we would have won.

Best Fan I've Ever OwnedPros: Super quiet in lower speed modes, can blow a lot of air in higher speed modes, remote control. Cons: A bit expensive comparatively. Other Thoughts: This the perfect fan for home theater rooms, or at least where you're trying to watch tv or listen to music. The lower speed settings are very, very quiet compared to any other tower fans I've tried, which are numerous. If you need more air movement, just up the speed (there are plenty of speeds), but beware it will start to get loud like any other fan. The lowest speed is nearly silent, but doesn't push a lot of air, but is great if you're not too far from it. Worked great all last summer with no odd noises like others have described when it's oscillating. Looking forward to warmer weather to enjoy it again. I have added it to my Logitech universal remote control to keep things simple. Did you find this review helpful? |
junk!Pros: None Cons: Starts squeking so bad after a couple months I;m afraid it will start a fire Other Thoughts: STAY AWAY!! Did you find this review helpful? |
A bit misleading adPros: Looks nice, simple to assemble, and sturdy base. Cons: DOES NOT have 12 hours timer as ad stated. Other Thoughts: At this price it should have more operating features like sea breeze, and shorter increment timer like 1/2 hrs etc (not 1, 2, 4, 8 hrs). Did you find this review helpful? |
Great fan...spreads nice airPros: Works nicely, worth the money I got it for ($30 off). Lots of settings + remote. Cons: Could be stronger Did you find this review helpful? |
unacceptable noisePros: irrelevant Cons: The fan arrived yesterday. It intermittently makes a buzzing sound when the ran rotation reaches an end point, and at random other times. Holding my hands on the fan body eliminates the noise. Clearly, some internal vibration is being transmitted to the plastic enclosure. Also, if I put my ear to the unit I can hear a faint clicking sound, the kind a fan makes when it nicks something as it rotates. May be a design defect, may be a manufacturing defect, may be a packaging defect, your guess is as good as mine - in any event the fan is going back. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Love minePros: Quiet, compared to other fans i own, and for it's class it's as quiet as any other. The remote is kinda of pointless, but fans are useless if you aren't being fanned by them, so it's nice to turn it off at night if you put it in the corner. Even the low speeds move considerable amounts of air, enough to blow a lighter out from 15' away. Have had mine since august of last year, no noises or ticks or anything. Thing is almost never off though from May-September. Cons: It kinda stays at the end of the cycle when oscilating for a while, so having it stop on you is a good idea, unless you just want a passing breeze. Other Thoughts: Fans break, MTBF is not listed on these things, but i usually don't get more than 12 months out of a oscillating fan until it stops rotating, but still works as a fan. Did you find this review helpful? |
Breaks After One Month of UsePros: -Sleek design Cons: -Wobbly Base Other Thoughts: This fan is GUARANTEED to fail within a month's time either due to a power failure or an internal defect that results in the constant emission of a horrible, high-pitched screaming noise. Multiple reviews by many owners and from different sources confirm this to be a VERY common occurrence. This fan seems like a great buy when compared to other tower fans of its same class, BUT DO NOT BE DECEIVED. IT IS NOT QUIET. IT WILL FAIL YOU. 3 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Worked Great....Pros: Worked great, had multiple settings from quiet to super loud blast of air. Cons: Lasted but a few months and the power system seemed to be dead. Would take it about 5 minutes to kick on and when it did, it was loud as my neighbors spanish music. The oscilating wouldn't work either. 5 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Best fan I've ever owned!Pros: This fan is especially great for a bedroom! It is very quiet for the amount of air pushed. You can set a temp and forget it. Lots of speed settings between low and max. Is slightly higher than most fans. Cons: Bright temp display could be distracting to some at night. Doesn't inject sage smell into air. Other Thoughts: Pricey but at least you are clearly getting what you pay for. 1 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
