The investigation into a fatal roller coaster accident continues this month. State Fire Marshal Butch Browning tells KATC his office will meet with German manufacturer of the ride, Maurer Sohne.
Lindsay Zeno, 21, of Lafayette was killed July 11 when she fell 30 feet from the Xtreme roller coaster at Dixie Landin'. Investigators conducted hours of mechanical and operational testing focusing on the coaster's restraint device.
On October 27 and 28, another test will be conducted. This time it's a dismantling test, where they take the car apart and check the mechanics of it, then reassemble it.
The manufacturer recommended the test be done.

text: I agree that there are some military wives that do not cope well with long tours of duty, but their lack of emotional restraint may just be a cry for help or support. Imagine the stress of not knowing if you would ever see your soul mate again, or wondering if your kids will remember their other parent. Some may not cope well, but is that any reason to blanket all miltary wives as lazy whiners, no. Anticipation is horrible and our spouses have the hardest job, waiting. They need someone to lean on in these time more than ever.

During the Komets' 4-3 victory over Bloomington on Tuesday night, WOWO broadcaster Bob Chase talked at length about this story, which caused quite a stir earlier this month.
I have transcribed the entire segment. I ask you read my brief thoughts at the end ...
"Maybe I can let you in on something for a moment. We'll tell you more about it as the week goes by. My commentary on WOWO on Friday will deal and put to rest a situation that created a lot of discomfort for a lot of people. And that was a little faux pas that I uttered on Dec. 3 out in Rapid City. It really was a case of two people reconciling an error. Not one done on purpose. But just a Freudian slip because, I guess, of who I am and the era I grew up in. It would have been handled totally individually between myself and the gentleman who had notified the newspaper that he had heard me say a specific word that apparently was not very complimentary to the Japanese people in this era. Bingo, guess what happened? The newspaper writes a big story on it and from the story there, everybody was going crazy.
"I tried to find who the person was and I had a difficult time. They would not let me know that at the newspaper. I told the writer that I definitely would have, at that moment, emailed him and made my apology as profound as I could. I don't live to hurt people. People are what makes the world go round. And I love people. And I'm happy that people -- at least the majority of them -- have respect for me. I never got the opportunity until it was too late.
"I finally, through other means, found out who this gentleman was. Immediately, I emailed him a long apology and hopes that at least he would understand where I came from. Well, it took a week before he answered. As he said in the answer, he was sorry he had not written sooner but because of all the things that had happened, the activity around that story, he was in such total dismay, he didn't know what to do. He's an educated man. He's an educator in Japan. ... He could not understand. The thing that disturbed him as much as anything, and I don't read blogs; I've made that a point for many, many years, and I couldn't believe, wow, that people like that exist.
"But they also had cut into this guy's life and what had happened there. His folks were getting phone calls in Ossian, Indiana, and I was getting phone calls at my home. Some pretty nasty phone calls. When my wife would pick up and answer in a common manner, somebody would say, 'Is this Bob Chase?' She'd say, 'Yes,' and you can't believe the language that would spout from the telephone and then they'd hang up. The same thing, only probably not as badly, was happening to him.
"Anyway, to make a long story short, I didn't really know how to reach a finish on this and a wind up. I was advised by several people in the newspaper business not to go to the newspaper because it would not get the treatment it needed so there was fairness on both sides and so people could understand. I met with the general manager at WOWO and explained the situation. So this Friday morning, my commentary will deal with the injustices created by a bit of an irresponsbile known journalist.
"What I did to be sure so that you could understand it: All the email conversations that I've had with this gentleman from Japan will be posted on the WOWO Website, from my initial contact to my apology to his return with me and all the things that happened. I think you're going to find it very, very interesting when you get it all worked out. That's Friday morning and then it will be on the WOWO website.
"For all those people who misunderstood what it was all about, please, for your own good and my own vilification, and also for this gentleman who you heard more than you knew for doing this email or blog routine, give this guy a break. He's a very brilliant young man, very understanding and he made my day and made my year because there are still human beings in this world who can understand and forgive and get on with a new life. He did just that. We've become pretty good friends. When they come from Japan to the United States, we're going to get together."
OK, as I have from the beginning, I will keep my personal opinions out of this. I am being portrayed as the bad guy. I fail to see how I was remotely irresponsible. That's fine. It comes with the job.
However, Chase is completely incorrect in two things, and I want you all to be clear on this.
First of all, while he states this was all about one man's complaint, it was not. Shawn Barva was the first person to get in touch with me about Chase's comment. However, I have been contacted by many people who also heard it and were uncomfortable with it. They praised The Journal Gazette for writing about it and told me, they wish they had come forward, too.
Secondly, Chase claims that I wouldn't put him in touch with Barva. That's not the case. I told Barva the day I spoke with Chase that Chase would like to speak with him or take him to lunch. I gave that message to Barva. But that doesn't affect whether we do a story; I have bosses like everyone else.
Finally, I did try to explain these things to Chase. He was understandably upset and threatened me, so I never got the chance to tell him that none of this was personal and that this wasn't about just one upset listener.
That's all from me.

Overall Rating:
good, but not as good as they could be
I just purchased the CableClips in all three sizes. Because they are made of silicone, you can easily push your cord through the slots on either side of a CableClip as you wrap it. That's a plus. But each size, in my view, would be better if it allowed a bit more room in the clips for the cable/cord. Because each size does not have quite enough...Read the full review >
Did not deliver
I had high hopes for this product. The description does not give you a good indication of which size to clip is needed for standard cords. Cords easily fall out of the clips. Overall I was dissapointed with this purchase (small and medium size were purchsed).Read the full review >

RADIANT PANEL ASSEMBLY Filed March 2, 1959 3 Sheets-Sheet 3 IN VEN TOR.
YMA QUIS A. WOODS B (inn- 0* ATT 'Ys Unite States Fate 3,674,521 RADIANT PANEL ASEEMBLY Marquis A. Woods, 9208 W. Grand Ave, Franklin Park, Ill. Filed Mar. 2, 15959, Ser. No. 796,639 4 Claims. (Cl. 189-85) This invention relates in general to improvements in radiant heating assemblies adapted to be placed around the perimeter of a space to be heated at either the fioo'r or ceiling level.
One of the essential characteristics of the subject invention is the full realization of the advantages of radiant heating by an assembly which is remarkably easily assembled and which may be used in buildings particularly designed for its inclusion, or in buildings not so specifically designed.
In particular, the subject assembly provides freedom from noise, absence from dust distribution credited to the fact that there are no appreciable convection currents in rooms using this assembly and the maintenance of normal humidity, while providing an effective heating system which, experimental usage has shown, can deliver over four times its rated output based upon the currently accepted method of determining heat loss quantities and radiation outputs.
Therefore, it is an object of this invention to provide a highly efiicient radiant panel assembly which, in operation is free from noise, provides no appreciable convection currents to distribute dust in the area to be heated, is adapted to maintain the normal humidity of the area, and may be easily and rapidly installed both in buildings designed particularly for its use, and in buildings not so designed.
The present invention is particularly designed to utilize the adjacent wall-floor or wall-ceiling areas as heat transmitting surfaces to significantly augment the radiant heat yielded by the system. In order to efiectively utilize the wall-floor or ceiling surfaces as radiant heat transmitting surfaces, the instant assembly utilizes a plurality of stud bracl-lets, radiant panels and other fittings which permit maximum heating of the wall and floor or ceiling surfaces adjacent a heating pipe. In the instant invention, this is accomplished by providing a maximum exposure of that portion of the wall and floor or ceiling which are behind, underneath or above the radiant panel.
Therefore, it is also an object of this invention to provide a radiant panel assembly which permits effective utilization of adjacent wall and door or ceiling surfaces for transmitting radiant heat.
In this invention, a particular configuration of elements is used which takes advantage of the innate resiliency of the sheet metal used in constructing the various elements to maintain the assembly rigidly secured with respect to the wall and floor or ceiling and which will not become disassembled or loosened by accidental bumps or jars.
Therefore, it is a further object of this invention to provide a heating assembly in which the configuration of the individual elements utilizes the innate resiliency or the sheet metal of which they are made to retain the elements in a rigid secure relationship to the wall and floor or ceiling.
Further, in order to minimize the cost of radiant heating elements, the present assembly has been designed to be quickly and easily installed with the use of a minimum number of tools. In fact, the instant assembly can be installed with the use of only a hack saw and a hammer,
the hack saw being used to cut the radiant panel into appropriate lengths and the hammer being used to secure the stud brackets to the wall.
Therefore, it is a further object of this invention to provide an improved radiant heating assembly which is adapted to be placed around the perimeter of the room to be heated and which may be installed with a minimum number of tools.
Also, in the use of radiant heating devices it has been recognized that certain areas or" buildings and rooms are more dirhcult to heat than others. While the instant assembly utilizes a relatively large surface to radiate large quantities of heat, this radiation is ultimately dependent upon the heat of the pipe behind the panels. Thus, it has been found that providing those sections or pipe which are located in areas more difficult to heat with finned tubing, an increased heating of the corresponding section of the adjacent panel is caused which equalizes the effective radiant heat throughout the entire area.
Therefore, it is a further object of this invention to provide a radiant heating assembly which is used in combination with finned tubing on the pipe in the more difiicuit areas to heat in order to equalize the heating effectiveness throughout the entire area.
Further objects or" the invention are to provide improved internal and external corner couplings and joiner strips which not only serve to seal the joints between successive sections and at corner bends but which also serve as rigid connectors between successive panel sections.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the description proceeds in accordance vit'n the accompanying drawings illustrating a specific embodiment of the invention and in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of an installation of an embodiment of the subject radiant panel assembly;
FIG. 2 is a view corresponding to FIG. 1 but showing the elements of the assembly in partially disassembled relationship;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view in fragmentary form of a section of the radiant panel assembly showing the mode of fastening a radiant panel on a stud bracket; the initial position of the panel in the mounting procedure being shown in dotted outline;
l6. 4 is a rear perspective view of an improved stud bracket according to the invention;
FIG. 5 is a sectional side view showing the manner of fastening the upper portion of a radiant panel to a stud bracket;
KG. 6 is a cross sectional view of a pipe mounting sleeve;
FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing the manner of securing a stud bracket to a wall;
FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a stud bracket attached to a wall and supporting a length of pipe preparatory to attachment of a radiant panel;
FIG. 9 is a rear perspective view showing a joiner strip secured over one end of a radiant panel;
FrG. 10 is a rear perspective view of an outside corner coupling shown secured over one end of a radiant panel; and
FIG. 11 is a rear perspective view of an inside corner coupling secured to one end of a radiant panel.
The embodiment shown in the drawings is for use as a baseboard assembly, although by a mere reversal of parts it may also be used adjacent the perimeter of a ceiling.
As seen in FIG. 1, the radiant panel assembly is comprised generally of a left-hand end cap 1, a right-hand end cap 3, a plurality of radiant panels 5, a joiner strip 9, an outside corner coupling 10, an inside corner coupling 11, and stud brackets 13 (FIG. 7).
As viewed in FIG. 7, stud bracket 13 is formed with an elongated, generally rectangular mounting base 15 having strengthening ribs 17 and 19 extending forwardly along each vertical edge to provide rigidity. Theupper portion of the stud bracket is bent forwarly and inclined downwardly to form a depending flange 21. The upper portion of the stud bracket 13 is formed with a'forwardly .olfset vertical shoulder 43, as seen in FIGS. 4 and 5, which is spaced from a vertically projecting tongue 45 which extends upwardly from and in the plane of the mounting base 15, the tongues 45 being struck from'the material of the shoulder 43 as the latter is formed; The lower portion of the stud bracket 13 is bent forwardly to form bracket heel 29 which is provided with a downwardly turned bead 23 along the outer edge.
When installing the stud brackets, the radiant panel assembly is laid out in an approximate position. Appropriate studs are then marked for mounting of the stud brackets, which should be located approximately four feet apart for proper supportof thepanel although in no instance should the bracket be nearer than six inches from the joiner, corner orend capfittings of the assembly. The panel may be put into approximate position adjacent the wall and leveled with shim stock 27. The baseboard panels are then removed, the shims being left in place, and the heel of the bracket 29 placed tightly on the floor or shim. Next, a generally cylindrically shaped mounting sleeve 31, made of relatively frictionless, heat resisting material such as Teflon, is 'slipped'onto a nail 33 which is then driven through the lower aperture 35 in stud bracket 13, the sleeve acting both as a spacer and as sup port for the pipe. A second nail 37 is' driven through upper aperture 39 of stud bracket 13 to provide additional support. The pipe 7 may be held in appropriate position adjacent the wall and floor by blocks 41 until the stud brackets are appropriately mounted. Then, blocks 41 may be removed and the pipe 7 supported by the mounting sleeves 31 which permit the pipe 7' to move relatively freely, longitudinally, to accommodate expansion and other longitudinal movement. Also, at this time, finned tubing 12 may be provided on the pipe in areas which are diflicult to be heated.
Each radiant panel is formed with a flat vertical face 47, the upper surface of which is rounded and curved gradually rearwardly to form a substantially horizontal top portion 49. A continuous depending flange 51 extends downwardly from the rear edge of the top portion of the radiant panel and is formed with an oflset surface 53 adjacent the lower edge set forwardly in relationship to the remainder of the flange. The lower portion of the panel is formed with a rearwardly projecting foot 55 having a continuous upwardly turned bead 57 extending through out the middle portion. This continuous upwardly turned head 57 not only addsrigidity throughout the length of foot 55 but also serves to secure the panel to the bracket, as seen in FIG. 3.
As shown in FIG. 3, the baseboard panel 5 is adapted to be secure-dto each of the stud brackets 13 in the following manner: The foot 55 of panel 5 is pushed inwardly beneath bracket heel 29 until head 57 is moved past head 23. The upper end'of' the baseboard panel 5 then is forced rearwardly and continued pressure causes the panel depending flange 51 to slide upwardly on depending flange 21 of stud bracket 13, flexing the panel 5 until it snaps into the space between tongue 45 and offset shoulder 43.
When the lower portion of radiant panel 5 is pushed under bracket heel 29, the resiliency of the bracket heel 29 opposes the wedging action of bead 57 and acts to force the panel foot 55 downwardly, pivoting the entire upper portion of the panel rearwardly around the-lower panel edge and toward the depending flange 21. Further, when the depending flange 51 is pushed inwardly toward the bracket 15 and is moved upwarly on depending bracket flange 21 it is acting in opposition to the downward force of heel 29 on foot 55 causing the top portion of the panel to flex upwardly. Thus, when the depending flange 51 is pushed beyond the rear edge of flange 21, it snaps into the space between the offset shoulder 43 and the tongue 45, due to the resiliency of the panel. panel is then held firmly and securely in relation to the wall.
The left and right-hand end caps 1' and 3 are mirror images of each other and are adapted to be placed on the corresponding ends of the panelS. As best seen in FIG. 2, each end cap is formed with an end face 59 having a peripheral flauge61 extending completely; aroundv the edge of the end face and projecting inwardly, the: rear and. bottom portions being of, greater width than thefrontand top portions to provide an effective mounting surface. The front and top portions ofthe' flange-are adaptedlto overlie theend of the panel 5. The bottom of the peripheral flange hasa cut-out por-tionwhich is. bent vertically to provide a spacingtab. 63, adapted to abut. the forward edge of the rearwardly projectingfootmember 55 of the panel 5 when the end cap is secured on theend of the panel. The rearupper portion of the. peripheral flange 61 is formed with a forwardly projecting spacing tab 65. which is adapted to abut the lower edge of depending panel flange 51 when the cap is positioned on the end of: panel .5. The angle between the top and the front portion: of the flange'61 is less than theangle. between the. top. and face of the panel so that theend of the. panel 5.. must. be slightly sprung to receive, the. end 1cap, theiaction of the panel in tending to return to itsnormal configuration retainingthe end cap in place.
A joiner strip 9, best shown in FIG. 9, .is also provided to seal the joint and provide-a rigidconnectionbetween adjacent lengthsof baseboard paneL. Since the. lengths of the panel will generally be provided in. rather long sec tions from 10 to 18 feet, in length, it will often be. desirable to supplement a length with a partial length in order to conform the assembly to the dimensions of a particular room.
These joiner strips are essential inmaking a relatively air-tight fit between the panel lengths and for providing a relatively rigid connection between the panel lengths. topreserve lineal continuity and thuslenhance the appearance of the assembly. Joiner strips 9 are formed with an outer face having a conformation approximating the face of the. baseboard panel '5 and are adapted to be placed over the endsof the adjacent baseboard panels 5 to provide a close overlying fit. The joiner strip 9 is provided with a lower rearwardly projecting foot 67 which is divided into twolongitudinal sections by an elongatedopening 69 which. permits relative movement between the. two portions. of the foot to accommodate minor variation in floor level. Further, this joiner foot 67 is cut inwardly on each outside edge adjacent the rear end of the foot 67 and the rearward flap thus formed bent upwardly and inwardly along a line extending diagonally from the rear corner of the foot-67 to form a triangular spacer tab 72 having a forward edge adapted to abut the rear edge of foot 55 of panel 5 when the joiner strip is in place. The uppermost edges of the tabs 72 are thus inclined upwardly and forwardly from the plane of the foot 67 so that the foot 67 can, by a wedging action, be forced inwardly beneath the panel foot 55 when the joiner strip is applied.
The joiner strip is also formed with a downwardly projecting depending flange 73 at its upper end which flange is also divided into two longitudinal sections to provide adaptability. The outside edges of the depending flange 73 are split horizontally inward adjacent the lower end and the flaps thus formed are bent'forwardly and inwardly as in 'thecase'of the tabs in the foot to'form tri- The' angular spacing tabs 77 and 73 each having an upper edge adapted to abut the lower end edge of depending flange 51 of the adjoining panels. The forwardrnost edges of the tabs are thus inclined upwardly and forwardly from the bottom edge of the flange 73, and as in the case of the end cap, the angle between the top and face of the joiner strip may be less than the angle between the top and face of the baseboard panel, the resiliency of the panel aiding in holding the strip firmly in place.
In securing the joiner strip to adjacent panels 5, first the depending flange 73 of the joiner strip is inserted between the depending flanges 51 of the panels and the wall until the spacing tabs '77 and 78 are pushed beneath the lower edge of each depending flange 51. The angularly disposed tabs progressively wedge the upper portion of panel 5 forwardly as the flange 73 is moved downwardly. The resiliency of the bracket 13, panel 5 and flange 21 causes the flange 51 to spring toward. the wall when the tabs are pushed below the edge of flange 5i, assuring that the tabs will project and be secured under the edge of flange '51. Then the lower end of the joiner strip is pushed inwardly, the joiner foot 67 being inserted under foot 55 of the panel 5, and the spacer tabs 72 being forced under foot 55 until they pass completely beneath the foot. Again the resiliency of the panel 5, foot 55 and bracket heel 29 yield to the progressive entrance of the inclined tabs 72 until they pass beyond the rear edge of the foot, the resiliency of these members forces the foot 55 downwardly assuring that the tabs will project upwardly over the rearward edge of the foot 55.
As shown in FIGS. and 11, outside corner coupling 1:) and inside corner coupling 11 are adapted to provide for uninterrupted panel radiation surface around the entire perimeter of a room. 7 Outside corner 10 is formed with two surfaces 7h and 81 corresponding generally in overall contour to and adapted to overlap the respective ends of the radiant panels 5 positioned substantially at a 270 degree angle with respect to each other adjacent an outside corner of the wall. Each of the surfaces '7? and 31 extends at substantially a 270 degree angle with respect to the other and are connected by an integral rounded portion 83 extending upwardly and rearwardly to provide a rounded corner between the two surfaces. Each outside corner is further provided with two lower, rearwardly extending foot portionsBS and 87, adjacent the end edge of each surface, each foot having a short longitudinal slit from the outer edge formed substantially parallel to the corresponding front face, the portion behind each slit being bent upwardly to form triangular spacing tabs 89 and Q1 the uppermost edges of which are inclined upwardly and forwardly from the plane of the foot, and the for- ,wardmost edges of the tabs being located to abut the rear edges of the feet 55 when inserted beneath the respective panels.
The upper ends of the two surfaces 79 and 31 are turned 99 degrees inward to form a unitary top end closure for the corner member and the rearward edges of this closure meet to form a substantially 9% degree angle adapted to fit against the outside wall corner and from which two depending flanges 93 and $5 extend vertically downwardly. Each of these flanges is provided with a short substantially horizontal slit in each of the outer edges, and the edge portions immediately below the slits are bent forwardly and inwardly on a diagonal line between the inner end of the slit and the outer edge of the flange to form triangular spacer tabs 97 and 99. The lower edges of these tabs are thus angularly inclined upwardly and forwardly and the upper surface of each of these tabs is adapted to abut the lower edge of the depending flange 51 of the baseboard panels on either side of the outside corner.
To assemble the outside corner, the depending flanges 93 and 95 are inserted behind the adjacent panels 5 at the upper portion and moved downwardly, the edges of the tabs pushing the panel flanges 51 forwardly until the spacer tabs 97 and 99 snap into position abutting the lower edges of depending flanges 51, the resiliency of the panels 5, flanges 51 and brackets 13 assuring that the tabs $7 and d9 project forwardly of the edge of the flange 51. Then the lower portion of the outside corner it? is inserted under the feet 55 of panels 5 and pushed inwardly, the inclined edge of the spacer tabs 89 and 91 pushing the panels 5, feet 55, and bracket heel 29 upwardly until the tabs snap into position abutting the rear edge of each foot 55. The resiliency of the panel 5, feet 55 and heel 2? assures the positioning of the tabs to hold the corner securely. Again, the angle between the top and face of the outside corner surface may be less than the angle between the top and face of the radiant panel 5 so that when the external corner is positioned on the panels 5 its tendency to return to its original configuration aids in holding it in place. Inside corner coupling 11 is formed with a flat outer face and a flat top portion, all having a contour corresponding to and adapted to follow that or" a pair of radiant panels 5 disposed substantially perpendicularly to each other adjacent an inside corner of adjoining walls. In addition the internal corner member is formed with its right angular top portion llll projecting rearwardly in a triangular formation to engage the surfaces of an inside wall corner. This triangular portion is equilateral and is formed with downwardly turned flanges 163 and each of which is provided with a short horizontal slit extending inwardly from the outer edge at a distance below the top 161 substantially equal to the depth of the panel flange 51, the edge portion beneath each slit being bent inwardly and forwardly to provide triangular spacer tabs 167 and 109, the lowermost edges of which are inclined upwardly and forwardly from the plane of the respective flange. It is to be noted that these spacer tabs 1tl71tl9 are so spaced that when the depending flanges 1G3 and 1535 are wedged behind the depending flange 51 are shown in FIG. 11, the substantially horizontal edges of the tabs 167 and 169' will snap into place abutting the lower edge. of flange 51, the resilience of the panels 5, and brackets 13 assuring the positioning of the tabs.
The lower portion of the internal corner is formed with a rearwardly projecting rectangular flange Ellfi. Two pairs of locking lugs are formed in the foot portion of the inner corner, each pair being spaced apart along a respective line extending at 45 degree angles with respect to the front face and edges of the flange lit Each pair of lugs is spaced from the other pair so as to be aligned with and receive the rearwardly projecting foot 55 of the respective panels 5 therebetween. Spacing lugs 111, 113, and 117 thus disposed are formed by stamping them from the metal of the foot portions at the appropriate locations. These opposing lugs act to retain the face portions of the inner corner 11, in tight abutment with the faces of the respective panels 5 adjacent the corner. The configuration of the internal corner coupling may be such that the upper portion is at a greater angle with respect to the face than in the upper portion of the radian panels in respect to the face. In assembly, the upper flanges 163 and are wedged downwardly behind the depending flanges 51 of the panel until the tabs snap into place abutting the lower edges of flanges 53.. Then the lower portion of the inner corner is wedged inwardly until the projecting foot portions of the corresponding panel members are wedged upwardly by the forward lugs and are snapped into the space between the opposing lugs ill, 133, 115 and 117; the innate resiliency of the panel 5 and brackets 13 assure proper positioning of the inner corner member and act to hold it securely. The tendency of the inner corner to return to its normal configuration may also aid in securely holding the corner in place.
In disassembling the radiant panel assembly, it is merely required that a screw driver or other suitable prying tool be inserted between depending flange 51 of the panel 7 and beneath the rearwardly projecting foot 55 of the I-panel, to disengage the respective tabs of the joiner strip 9, the outside corner 10' and the inside corner 11. These fittings may then be removed from the panel with case.
To remove the radiant panel 5 from the mounting brackets 15, the end of the panel 5 maybe forced outwardly progressively along the panel length and disengaged from the of the mounting brackets 15. The panels may then he lifted upwardly to disengage the depending rear fl'aiiges of the panel from the upper ends of the brackets. 5
'Accordingly, there has been provided a radiant panel assembly which is economical to'rnanufacture and simple in construction, and which may be'easily assembled by simply snapping the front panels onto the'stud brackets attached to the wall; which provides a'h'ighly efficient radiation which in operation is free from noise, provides no appreciable convection currents to distribute dust in the area to be heated, is adapted to maintain the normal humidity of the area, and'may be easily and rapidly installed both in buildings designed particularly for its use, and in buildings not so designed; which permits effective utilization of adjacent wall and floor or ceiling surfaces for the transmission of radiant heat; which may be used in combination with finned tubing on the pipe in the more difiicult areas to heat in order to equalize the heating effectiveness throughout the entire area; which may be installed with a minimum number of tools; which utilizes a patricular configuration of the elements which takes full advantage of the innate resiliency of the sheet metal used in constructing the various parts and fittings to maintain the assembly rigidly secured with respect to the wall and floor or ceiling and which will not become disassembled or loosened by accidental bumps and jars; and which provides improved inside and outside corner couplings and joiner strips which not only serve to seal the joints between successive sections and at corner bends, but also serve as rigid connectors between successive panel sections.

Pants Suit 8 8
Good outfit to wear to work. Not the best material or fit. Blair products used to fit better. July 6, 2014
Pants and top seem like two different sizes I ordered this outfit for the color, and because it can be worn in an office setting. The outfit is a 6P; however the pants fit like a 4 and the top fits like a 10. I may end up donating it. July 3, 2014
Love the fabric! Nice fabric and good fit. Wish there were more colors. May 21, 2014
Cute outfit, good price Purchased this for my mother in petite. She is 5 feet tall and it was still a little long, but a quick hem did the trick. May 20, 2014
This outfit was a "guess" and I am very pleased This outfit exceeded my expectations both in style and quality. I wish there were more colors available. I would be sure to order again. May 9, 2014
Nice Color but runs a bit small This item does not stretch and runs a little small. May 2, 2014
I have not worn it yet. While I like the style and feel I will use it a lot, I cannot give a very good review until I wear the outfit, which I will in the next few days. April 24, 2014
The suit is of good quality and a good buy. This is an all around suit, the material does not wrinkle and it hangs well. The Jade color, is gorgeous. well made, I love it. April 24, 2014

Big room. Clean. Facilities are good. Used the business centre to print boarding cards. Gym and pool are nice. My only complaint is we were hit with a raft of taxes and a "service charge" of $18 a day which were never mentioned when we booked. Overall they added $50 to the cost of an overnight stay. They should just add the service charge into the room price as there is no way to avoid paying it. Just tell us what the real price is!

I like the discernment in Arnold Kling's three-pronged argument according to which:
- (1) economy-wide wage growth is too highly aggregated a performance figure for analysing the economy,
- (2) the Fed is trailing the real economy,
- (3) the economy can be and presently is segmented so that certain layers of it experience vibrant economic activity, while others are mired in recession.
On (1), I would note that a few years ago wage growth was violating the Phillips Curve on the high side [meaning, I suppose: too high employment relative to the level of inflation, with strong demand for labour and correspondingly high wage growth, G.T.], and now it is violating the Phillips Curve on the low side [employment is too low given the level of inflation, with insufficient demand for labour and correspondingly weak wage growth, G.T.]. And yet mainstream macroeconomists stick to the Phillips Curve like white on rice. I would emphasize that the very concept of "the" wage rate is a snare and a delusion. Yes, the Bureau of Labor Statistics measures such a thing.
Instead, think of our economy as consisting of multiple labor market segments, not tightly connected to one another. There are many different types of workers and many different types of jobs, and the mix keeps shifting. I would bet that in recent years the official statistics on "the" wage rate have been affected more by mix shifts than by a systematic relationship between "the" wage rate and "the" unemployment rate.
On (2), I view this as evidence for my minority view that the Fed is not a big factor in the bond market. Instead, the Fed is mostly just following the bond markets. When it actually tries to affect the bond market, what you get are "anomalies," i.e., the failure of the bond market to do as expected by the Fed.
On (3), I think that we are seeing a Charles Murray economy. In Murray's Belmont, where the affluent, high-skilled workers live, I am hearing stories of young people quitting jobs for better jobs. On the basis of anecdotes, I would say that for young graduates of top-200 colleges, the recession is finally over. The machinery of finding sustainable patterns of specialization and trade is finally cranking again.
In Murray's Fishtown, on the other hand, the recession is not over. I would suggest that we are seeing the cumulative effects of regulations, taxes, and means-tested benefits that reduce the incentive for firms to hire low-skilled workers as well as the incentive for those workers to take jobs. As Sumner points out, President Obama's policies have moved in the direction of making these incentives worse.
Read the whole post on Arnold Kling's theory of the segmented wealth of nations.
See also Patterns of Sustainable Specialization and Trade.
For a broader context of Kling's take, consider his intriguing account of contemporary economic change:
I am inclined to treat the financial crisis as a blip, one whose apparent macroeconomic impact was made somewhat worse by the very policies that mainstream economists claim were successful.
This blip took place in the context of key multi-decade trends:
–the transition away from goods-producing sectors and toward the New Commanding Heights of education and health care
–the transition of successful men away from marrying housekeepers and toward marrying successful women
–the integration of workers in other nations, most notably China and India, into the U.S. production system
–the increasing power of computer technology that is more complementary to some workers than others
These trends are what explain the patterns of employment and relative wages that we observe. The financial crisis, and the government panic in response, pushed the impact of some of these developments forward in time.

A kurta — an Indian-style top — in a paisley fabric. The pattern is Vogue 8117 (now discontinued). A few years ago I decided to make my own "ethnic" clothes because the quality and fit of those available overseas, especially in India, is so poor. I made two that were very successful and became favourite garments. Now I have made another, the first for more than 4 years.
My fabric is Mark by Liberty of London. The colour is horrible but it is Liberty and it was going cheap on eBay (UK).

And a tweak to the points system so that there are more outright wins
February 4, 2013
Related Links
News : Three groups for Ranji Trophy, five-day knockouts
Series/Tournaments: Ranji Trophy | Indian Domestic Season
Teams: India
To stake a claim on the illustrious Ranji Trophy is no mean feat. To be able to play quality first-class cricket consistently for three months you need to put in plenty of effort into your pre-season preparation and fitness training, work on your team combinations, and ensure you have a strong bench of reserves to endure the backbreaking schedule.
So when a team like Mumbai win the trophy 40 times - the second-best side, Delhi, haven't won half as many - other state teams should be looking at the reasons behind their successes and turning them into a blueprint to follow.
Things were a little easier till a few years ago with regards to the standard of competition and scheduling of matches, but massive changes to the tournament's rules, points system, pitches and scheduling have made winning it much more challenging today. So kudos to Mumbai for not only winning the Ranji Trophy this year, but also for reaching the finals of all the junior age-group tournaments. Undoubtedly the Mumbai Cricket Association is doing something right to be able to enjoy such consistency.
But as much as Mumbai's victories reinforce their dominance on the Indian domestic circuit, they also highlight the pitfalls in the prevailing structure.
Mumbai had only two outright wins from 11 games this season. The rest were decided on the basis of first-innings leads. There is no denying that on many occasions Mumbai must have played better cricket than their opponents to get three points for the lead, but is that how we'd like our first-class cricket to be set up - where pitches aren't good enough to produce outright results and where there is an inherent flaw in the points system, which encourages teams to get three "safe" points rather than aim for an outright win?
Pitch imperfect
Acting on the recommendations made by its technical committee, the BCCI directed curators across the country to prepare sporting pitches this season, and all matches were scheduled on a home-and-away basis.
After India's recent overseas debacles, it was imperative to take a closer look at the kind of tracks the country's young players were fine-tuning their skills on, and the consensus was that there was an urgent need to spice up pitches in India. Unfortunately it seems the curators didn't take the brief as seriously as they should have, because this season's outright win percentage of 40% is the same as last season's.
While Mohali produced results throughout the season, Rajkot had three draws and three results. And for every pitch like Mohali, we have five others like Rajkot, which is why India's below-par overseas performances shouldn't come as a surprise. After all, a player is a product of his environment.
The board needs to start penalising state associations for dishing out highways in the guise of cricket pitches. Dock the team points, slap financial penalties on the association, and treat the grounds at par with those like Karnail Singh Stadium, which was found guilty of hosting matches on underprepared pitches.
|After India's overseas debacles, the consensus was that there was an urgent need to spice up the pitches in India. Unfortunately, this season's outright win percentage of 40% is the same as last season's
Not enough points
Before the season began, there was a lot of talk about changing the points system, and it was decided an extra point would be given for outright wins. While it is a noble idea to encourage teams to go for wins, the actual number of outright victories haven't gone up significantly. In fact, Mumbai found their way into the knockouts by winning only one game in the league phase.
Perhaps there's a need to add a few more points for an outright win or to revamp the points system completely to raise the level of competition. I suggested a new system for points on my blog on ESPNcricinfo.
Go back to neutral venues
The decision to play knockout matches at neutral venues was a sensible one, because otherwise the hosts have an unfair advantage. The pitch for the Ranji final between Delhi and Uttar Pradesh at the Wankhede in 2007-08 had something in it for everyone and allowed Delhi to win the game even after conceding a first-innings lead. If UP had hosted the match, they would probably have prepared a turner to take advantage of Delhi's limited spin resources.
But a few years ago, on Sachin Tendulkar's suggestion, the board decided to revert to the home-away system for knockouts to bring crowds into the stadiums. Tendulkar said neutral venues kept the teams' die-hard fans away from the grounds. But most home games are still played in empty stadiums, and now the problem of unsporting pitches has returned.
In the 2010-11 Ranji semi-final, Baroda, backing their superior spin bowling attack, dished out a dustbowl to Karnataka, who were a stronger team overall. The match lasted five sessions.
Such radical surfaces even out the playing field, but the outcome was harmful for the game. There are many such examples of hosts dictating terms at the cost of the quality of cricket.
If state associations aren't ensuring substantial footfalls, it might be prudent to host these matches at neutral venues - perhaps in tier II cities. That way not only can the pitch preparation be regulated, there will probably also be decent turnouts for the games.
This Ranji Trophy was said to be the year of transformations. But while some changes proved effective, like dividing the 27 teams into three groups of nine each so that every team got enough first-class games, others left a lot to be desired.

The Geospatial Information & Technology Association (GITA) has awarded Jones-Onslow Electric Membership Corp. (EMC) of Jacksonville, N.C., and the Office of Geographic and Environmental Information at MassGIS, Boston, with its 2005 GITA Innovator Award. The awards were presented during GITA's Annual Conference in March.
Jones-Onslow EMC developed its own geographic information system (GIS) over the past 10 years, resulting in an integrated, seamless, consumer-information system; financial-management system; and mapping-facilities system for the electric utility. The GIS runs on one database, and the information resides in one location. The MassGIS Open Geospatial Information System-based Web Mapping Services project, started in 2000, provides always-on access to all of the data contained in the MassGIS data repository through a variety of interfaces. The system provides a vendor-neutral, standards-based, data repository of all MassGIS maps, geospatial data, and geoprocessing services.

I have Man of steel superman and his special ability is a 30% chance of using no energy on super attacks. For me it feels like 70% so what I do is that I use my weak cards to stall and wait for my Superman card to charge all the way and once it does I use Superman and use the attack.

Vaddio Announces AutoPresenter and Presenter Pod for Automating People and Content into Videoconferencing and Rich Media Presentation Systems
MINNEAPOLIS, MN (April 19, 2010) â Vaddio, the leading manufacturer and OEM distributor of specialty PTZ cameras and high-end camera control systems, introduces the new AutoPresenter and Presenter Pod Camera and Content Control Systems.
Vaddioâs AutoPresenter is designed to make it easier to present and create content in the classroom by combining the automation of people and content into one easy-to-use classroom system.
âThe AutoPresenter is designed to truly allow a teacher to have an automated classroom,â? explained President and CEO of Vaddio, Rob Sheeley. âFor years integrators have been designing classrooms with large control systems with the goal of making it easier for teachers to teach. What weâve discovered is that teachers donât want to deal with the complexities of operating a control system; they want automation. They want to focus on teaching and not the technology.â?
The AutoPesenter can switch up to six video inputs in analog component HD (720p/1080i/1080p), RGBHV (up to 1920 x 1200) and SD video (NTSC & PAL). Individual video transitions including fades, wipes and dissolves can be programmed as required, while each video input can be up/down-converted to create a common aspect ratio and resolution. An additional output converter (available InfoComm 2010) will convert YPbPr component video to a DVI/HDMI digital output for integrating with TANDBERG and Polycom codecs. The AutoPresenter allows the presenter to automate up to 72 predetermined presets for any type of content (video, document camera, whiteboard, PC, etc.). The PIP option allows any of these types of content to be shown at five different screen positions, in three different sizes within each preset.
The complementary Presenter Pod (with PresenterSense), used in conjunction with the AutoPresenter, allows the presenter to automatically walk up to a work area, such as a teaching podium or whiteboard, and have the content appear in the main display, while retaining a PTZ camera preset shot of the presenter in the PIP window. An ultrasonic Presenter Sensor tracks presenter movement (with up to four ranges), while two large buttons located on the PresenterPod offer the presenter flexible control over the automated content and other necessary content sources. A third button is available for PIP adjustment within any preset.
This new approach to automating people and content presentation systems offers unlimited preset functionality with easy presenter-controlled options.
About Vaddio:
Vaddio is the leading manufacturer and OEM distributor of specialty PTZ cameras and high-end camera control systems used in the broadcasting, audio/visual and videoconferencing industry. Headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, Vaddio also has operations throughout the Americas, as well as sales and support partners throughout the world.
