Johnson Outdoors Inc, et al v. Navico, Inc. et al
Filing 1
COMPLAINT against Navico, Inc., Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. ( Filing fee $ 350.00 receipt number 4602012699.), filed by Johnson Outdoors Inc,, Johnson Outdoors Marine Electronics, Inc.. (Attachments: # 1 Exhibit 1, # 2 Exhibit 2, # 3 Civil Filing Receipt)(cb, )
RECEiVED IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALAM 2b NORTHERN DIVISION JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. and JOHNSON OUTDOORS MARINE ELECTRONICS, INC. Plaintiffs, V. Civil Action No NAVICO, INC. and SPORTSMAN'S OUTFITTERS, L.L.C. : 10- cV i1- JURY TRIAL DEMANDED Defendants. COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT Plaintiffs, Johnson Outdoors Inc. ("Johnson Outdoors") and Johnson Outdoors Marine Electronics, Inc., d/b/a Humminbird ("Humminbird" and together with Johnson Outdoors, "Plaintiffs"), for their Complaint against Navico, Inc. ("Navico") and Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. (collectively "Defendants"), hereby allege as follows: Nature of the Action 1. This is an action against Navico, Inc. and Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. for patent infringement. 2. In the early 2000s, Humminbird employees invented a new system, to be mounted to a boat, employing side scan sonar beams to locate fish and underwater structures, and to display them in detailed and recognizable images. On August 2, 2004, Johnson Outdoors filed U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/598,326, and on August 2, 2005 it filed U.S. Patent -V1-C$ Application No. 11 / 195,107 (the "107 application") claiming priority therefrom, directed to its side scan sonar technology. The '107 application issued on January 26, 2010, as United States Patent No. 7,652,952 ("the '952 Patent"), entitled "Sonar Imaging System For Mounting To Watercraft." 3. In Humminbird's fiscal year 2005, Humminbird introduced the first of its products to employ its side scan sonar technology. In the years that followed, Humminbird introduced an array of products that used this now patented technology. These products are sold by Humminbird under its "Side Imaging" registered trademark. 4. The marketplace has enthusiastically accepted these Humminbird "Side Imaging" products. They have become the industry leading high end, premium sonar fish finders used for inland (freshwater) and near shore (saltwater) sports fishing and recreational boating. 5. With knowledge that Johnson Outdoors had filed the aforementioned patent applications to protect its side scan sonar technology, and with knowledge that the United States Patent and Trademark Office had determined that claims in the '107 application were patentable, Navico expended substantial resources to inform the trade, and the relevant purchasers of fish finding products, that it too would use side scan sonar technology, and would launch the sale in the United States of its own side scan sonar products to compete directly with the Humminbird "Side Imaging" products. Navico calls these products its "Lowrance LSS-1 StructureScan Imaging System" ("StructureScan" products), which comprises an LSS-1 StructureScan Imaging Module and an LSS-1 Imaging Transducer assembly. 6. By about December, 2009, Navico commenced sales of its "StructureScan" products in the United States. These products, when used with a Lowrance High Definition System ("HDS") display (collectively, the "Infringing Products") in the manner instructed by -2- Navico, directly infringe one or more claims of the '952 Patent. The Infringing Products are now being offered for sale by Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. in this District. 7. Therefore, Plaintiffs file this action to seek redress for Defendants' ongoing infringement of Plaintiffs' patent rights. The Parties 8. Plaintiff, Humminbird, is a corporation duly organized and existing under Alabama law, with its principal place of business in this District at 678 Humminbird Lane, Eufaula, Alabama 36027. Plaintiff, Johnson Outdoors, is a corporation duly organized and existing under Wisconsin law, with its principal place of business located at 555 Main Street, Racine, Wisconsin 53403. Humminbird is a wholly owned subsidiary of Johnson Outdoors. 9. Upon information and belief, defendant Navico is a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware, having a place of business located at 12000 East Skelly Drive, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74128. Upon information and belief, Navico does business under the "Lowrance" brand for certain of its products, including the Infringing Products at issue here. 10. Upon information and belief, Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Alabama and has a place of business at 1975 Ross Clark Circle, Dothan, Alabama 3630 1-5883. Jurisdiction and Venue 11. This is an action for patent infringement arising under the patent laws of the United States (35 U.S.C. § 100 et seq.). 12. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1331 and 1338(a). -3- 13. Upon information and belief, this Court has personal jurisdiction over Navico because it regularly conducts business with and ships products to retailers authorized to sell those products in the Middle District of Alabama, including but not limited to Sportman's Outfitters, L.L.C. and therefore has substantial contacts with this District; because it has availed itself of an Alabama court; because it has interactive websites, www.navico.com and www.lowrance.com , that advertise and promote the Infringing Products, as well as other products, in this District; because it directs and permits owners of Lowrance HDS displays in this District to download software from www.lowrance.com to enable those displays to function with the "StructureScan" products; and because upon information and belief it has sold and offered to sell Infringing Products in this District through the aforementioned authorized retailers and has thereby injured Johnson Outdoors and Humminbird, a citizen of Alabama, in this District. 14. Upon information and belief, this Court has personal jurisdiction over Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. because it regularly conducts business in this District and therefore has substantial contacts with this District; because it has a regular and established place of business in this District; and because it has offered to sell Infringing Products in this District and has thereby injured Plaintiffs in this District. 15. Venue is proper in this District pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and (c). Patent-in-Suit 16. The '952 Patent has duly and legally issued to Johnson Outdoors as assignee of the inventors, David A. Betts, Robert W. Derrow, and David J. Howells. A true copy of the '952 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 17. Humminbird is the exclusive licensee under the '952 Patent and under its license manufactures the Humminbird "Side Imaging" products in this District. El Humminbird's "Side Imaging" Products Are Market Leaders in Performance and Sales 18. Since Humminbird's introduction of its "Side Imaging" products in fiscal year 2004, they have become a remarkable success. Net sales have grown from zero to over $19 million in fiscal year 2008. Total net sales over that four year period have exceeded $37 million, despite the difficult market for the recreational boating and fishing industries in 2007 and 2008. The Hummingbird "Side Imaging" products are Humminbird's most important, and profitable, products. 19. Humminbird "Side Imaging" products have received very positive testimonials from objective, actual users and opinion letters in the industry. For example, a visit to www.yahoogroups.com , typing in "Side Imaging Sonar" reveals an online community of over 5,000 members who have voluntarily joined to share their experiences with Humminbird "Side Imaging" products. Defendants' Infringing Activities 20. Upon information and belief, Navico has long been engaged in the business of marketing underwater sonar products, including fish finder systems and their components. Upon information and belief, Navico's underwater sonar products have been losing market share to Humminbird's "Side Imaging" products in the high end, premium category. 21. Determined to compete more effectively against Humminbird's "Side Imaging" products, Navico developed its own products, the "StructureScan" products, that copy Hummingbird's side scan sonar technology and products. Since about January, 2009, Navico has been demonstrating and displaying its "StructureScan" products. -5- 22. Since about July 15, 2009, Navico has been indicating on its website, www.lowrance.com , that its "StructureScan" products are "Coming Very, Very Soon!" 23. In the October, 2009 issue of FLW Outdoors and in the January, 2010 issue of Bass Master magazine, both of which upon information and belief are distributed throughout the United States and in this District, Navico has advertised that the "StructureScan" product is "Now Available!" 24. More recently, Navico announced at www.lowrance.com that "[l]ong-awaited shipments" of its "StructureScan" products have begun in the United States. 25. Upon information and belief, retailers of marine products -- such as Star Marine Depot at www.starmarinedepot.com, Go There GPS at www.gotheregps.com and Marine Electronics Unlimited at www.marine-electronics-unlimited.com -- have been and are offering for sale throughout the United States, for delivery commencing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2009, the "StructureScan" product and the Lowrance HDS display. 26. Upon information and belief, Navico directly infringes one or more claims of the '952 Patent at least by using the "StructureScan" product mounted to a boat and operably connected to a Lowrance HDS display. 27. Upon information and belief, Navico has also actively induced and contributed to the infringement of one or more claims of the '952 Patent by others, by for example instructing purchasers of the "StructureScan" product to mount its Imaging Transducer assembly to a boat and to operably connect its Imaging Module to a Lowrance HDS display to create a sonar system with side scan sonar capability. 28. On January 26, 2010, after issuance of the '952 Patent, Sportsman's Outfitters, L.L.C. offered to sell a "StructureSc an" product and a Lowrance HDS display within this District, with delivery promised for mid-February, 2010. A true copy of the corresponding Sales Receipt is attached hereto as Exhibit 2. 29. Plaintiffs have not licensed or otherwise authorized Defendants or their customers to make, use, import, sell, or offer to sell sonar systems covered by the claims of the '952 Patent. 30. As a result of Defendants' infringing activities, Johnson Outdoors and Humminbird have suffered substantial and irreparable harm and lack an adequate remedy at law. Unless restrained and enjoined by this Court, Defendants will continue their infringing activities, thereby causing Joimson Outdoors and Humminbird further irreparable harm. Claim for Patent Infringement Under 35 U.S.C. 271 31. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference each and every allegation of paragraphs 1 through 30 of this Complaint, as though set forth here in their entirety. 32. Since its issuance, Joimson Outdoors and Humminbird have been and still are, respectively, the sole owner and exclusive licensee of the '952 Patent including the right to sue and recover for any and all infringements thereof. 33. Defendants have directly infringed, contributorily infringed, and/or induced others to infringe the '952 Patent by making, using, importing, offering to sell and/or selling the invention defined by one or more claims of the '952 Patent, without authority or license of Joimson Outdoors or 1-Jumminbird. 34. By reason of Defendants' infringing activities, Joimson Outdoors and Humminbird have suffered, and will continue to suffer, substantial damages in an amount to be proven at trial. -7- 35. Defendants' acts complained of herein have damaged and will continue to damage Johnson Outdoors and Humminbird irreparably. Johnson Outdoors and Humminbird have no adequate remedy at law for these wrongs and injuries. Johnson Outdoors and Humminbird are therefore entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctions restraining and enjoining Defendants from infringing the claims of the '952 Patent. 36. Upon information and belief, Navico's infringement has been deliberate and willful. Prayer for Relief WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request the Court to enter judgment that: A. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 271, Defendants have directly infringed, have contributorily infringed and have induced others to infringe the '952 Patent; B. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 283, Defendants and their subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, successors, and assigns, and all other persons and organizations in active concert or participation with them, be preliminarily and permanently enjoined from infringing the '952 Patent; C. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, Defendants be ordered to pay Plaintiffs their damages adequate to compensate Plaintiffs for Defendants' infringement of the '952 Patent, together with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest and costs; D. Awarding Plaintiffs an accounting for acts of infringement not presented at trial and an award by the Court of additional damages for such acts of infringement; E. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, an award of treble damages due to the willful and deliberate nature of Navico's infringement of the '952 Patent; -8- F. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 285, this case be declared exceptional and that Plaintiffs be awarded their reasonable attorneys' fees, interest and costs; and G. Plaintiffs be granted such other relief as the Court deems just and proper. Jury Demand Plaintiffs hereby demand a jury trial as to all issues so triable.

"Five of us went there on 11/25/05, the day after Thanksgiving, and had a wonderful time. The appetizers were outstanding, especially the crabcakes & onion rings. Everyone thought well of the entrees, including my self. However my lamb tips, although tasty and rare as ordered, were curiously a little tough.
Our server, if anything, was too solicitous. He seemed to return to the table every five minutes. It was early P.M. and the the room was only half full at the time. He also didn't understand the statement; "Ted Williams was the real John Wayne." But that's getting off point.
The Leatherlips IPA is a Hop-Head's wet dream of World-class proportions. Don't leave without taking a couple or three
containers away with you. The other brew of note was Lucky 7.
We will definitely be returning here again and again. "

How many trophies in 3DS game in total?

If you can share the score, etc. between different versions, I think it's still worth to have both. Otherwise I will only get the Wii U version.
@Einherjar Read again, I meant [new 3DS] character, not new [3DS character]
So it's possible that ice climber will be a new 3DS/ Wii U exclusive character in the future (next year)
Hatsune Miku Project Mirai 2 in JP used to be able to post screenshots on MiiVerse. However, there's an very easy way to post real life photo from the game, and Nintendo just simplely shut down the screenshot feature of that community, without any patches or so. That's terrible because there're so many really cute moments in the game that you want to share with others and if you beat a prefect or really high score you also want to share that with others.
I'm not sure when Project Mirai comes to NA what will happen with the community.
As someone who got the JP version full game, I'd say that there's no way to switch D-pad and circle pad (D-pad is used for taunting.) You can switch the functions of ABXYLR, and turn on/off the circle-pad's up as jump. That's all you can do currently. However, it's possible that the game will add more options in future updates.
Already downloaded the game this morning. However, I'm still interested in the demo version, especially I want to know if there's any region lock for local play.
However, I can see one problem. If the demo is still limited to 30 times, that will be a huge problem for this demo. With JP demo, you should not worry about 30 times because there's only 3 days. But for US version, 30 times for 2 or 3 weeks may be just far from enough for some players.
According to the source material, Ryunosuke Naruhodou visited London. Also, the Japanese heroine studied at London. For the roles, I think Ryunosuke Naruhodou and Sherlock Holmes are both the main characters, just like that Phoenix Wright x Professor Layton (also from London!). Do you still remember the demo video of this game released earlier? It says founder x ancestor, and the source material reveals that the ancestor is Ryunosuke and founder is Holmes.
I think there will be lots of Pokémon designs after ORAS release.
@KnightRider666 I also want to know that. I currently have more than 250 and hope that new 3DS can remove that limitation. I think if the reason for old 3DS is because that the hardware can't handle too much software, there should be no such excuse for new 3DS. The only question is whether Nintendo is too lazy to make this modification.
Just check JP Club Nintendo, great new physical rewards almost every month. Yoshi plush, Super Mario Tape, Club Nintendo Touch Pen, ? Block Rubber Coaster, NES Notebook, and this month, they got a Shopping Bag with Mario's enemys on it.
Will Amiibo be region-locked? Let's say, if I buy a JP version Super Smash Bros 3DS, will it be possible to use US version Amiibo?
I know it's sounds ridicules, but I think I will not be surprised either way.
@AVahne About the optional region-lock, as far as I know, there are 2 games can be considered as "optional". One is the famous Louvre guide, another is not as famous: Zelda OOT Chinese version, which can be played on both Traditional Chinese region and Simplified Chinese region (that's 2 regions, and only this one title is playable on both systems). You may notice that both games are published by Nintendo, so if that's optional, that's only optional for Nintendo.
Btw, I also saw a post years ago from a publisher that said they want the game to be available for all regions but Nintendo doesn't allow it.
Whatever, I never believed the rumor from the first time I heard it. Even that was true, unless you can access different eShops from any 3DS, that's still useless for me (eShop version is cheaper (without shipping fee) and has some exclusive titles).
I just hope Nintendo can drop the region-lock for local wireless play. I was told even the latest Kirby Fighter Z has region-lock when local play with different versions... I think only few games from Nintendo like Animal Crossing and Pokémon doesn't have region lock for local play.
I hope Super Smash Bros 3DS can be one of them. I plan to play the JP version first then buy the US version, and I hope I can then simply give one of my 3DS to my friend and battle.
I don't care about this game, so whatever.
I also want to say if the game manufacture show no respect to this platform, there's no need to care about them. Really, even if you beg them, and they port certain version, they may just give you something really bad and there's very few chance for next version or updates. Why should you pay them for such a bad product and attitude?
Just forget it, no need to mention it, either as news or as discussion.
@ChuJelly You're right, that the new adaptive brightness feature, the screen will get darker in dark environment. Actually I noticed this feature several times, but each time I tried to summarize all the features of new 3ds, I always forgot it -_-. So I can understand why nobody talk about it (no, I can't).
For the new exclusive games, I think most of games will not be in this category. No matter what, game developer and publisher still want to earn as much as possible, so there is not way they exclude the large install base that already there. The only possible reason that there's exclusive game is that they game really need extra power, like Xenoblade. I also think it's possible that Nintendo may release some other Wii games as new 3DS exclusive, since it will not cost a lot to port the game and they usually require more power. But other games, either 1st party new titles, or 3rd party games, should still be playable on old 3DS as that's the only way to earn more.
However, I also think it's possible that new games will have something exclusive on new 3DS. For example, maybe next Pokemon will be able to be 3D all the time on new model, but still partial 3D on old model.
@Jazzer94 I think nobody answered your question yet. According to official website, the camera's resolution is still the same. However, the performance in dark environment is improved a bit
Another change is the front camera, there is a infrared LED next to it, which can help the camera recognize the position of player's face in dark environment (but I think it will not be helpful for the image quality)
As well as new mii plaza puzzle panel for these games.
I'm glad it's not Mario, but I think the current character should be much more cuter. Btw, it may be a hint of Mario DLC.
I personally don't mind this DLC. Actually I like it. However, I still want to say I can understand other players who may against it if Nintendo can't do it right (since at this time, we don't know how exactly it works). 1. Is this DLC really optional, or this DLC is bundled with many other improvements? If that's the latter case, you can't say it's optional because all the improvement are important. In the worst case, you must have it to play online. 2. Can you optionally block this DLC when playing online, or if your opponent use this car, you have no way but accept that? If it's the latter case, that means not only the DLC is not optional but also not avoidable. I hope Nintendo does the former case for both my questions. Once again, I don't mind real world cars at all, and I probably will use that car, but I can full understand that there are players that don't want them, and I hope Nintendo do the right thing that doesn't bother them.
Too bad it's just too late !!!
@sketchturner Agree. SM3DW is the best game on Wii U, should have a much better sales number.
I have the offcial fan book coming with Ace Attorney 123, which is great (altough that means I paid much more than the upcoming western version Ace Attorney 123)
272 apps currently on my JP 3DS. I hope Nintendo can announce a new 3DS model soon so I can buy another one before the number reaches 300.
(Btw, 198 of them are demos... However, I assume since NOJ release more and more demos every week and they provide 5 club coins for each demo, there should be more and more Japanese 3DS players face such issue recently. Maybe NOJ will notice that and try to fix it through a firmware update, and NOA and NOE will benefit from that as well).
That's why I have not bought these games yet.
Glad to hear this news.
I think there are just too many games that are banned from posting screenshots that I now consider the screenshot is not allowed as default for new games and would be very happy if I find screentshot is allowed..
@SonataAndante But one thing make Japan's club great: you can earn 5 coins for each demo (within 10 days since the demo available), and there are already nearly 200 3DS game demos so far, which mean 1000 Japan coins, or roughly 2000 US coins. There's no problem to become platinum only by demos.
Not to say they have much better selections of rewards.
Now Yokai Watch 2 already sales more than Yokai Watch, and there is no doubt that Pokemon ORAS, Monster Hunter 4g and Super Smash Bros. will book their positions in the second half year. I think 3DS will continue dominating the top 10 at the end of this year, but the question is how many Wii U titles left (MK8 probably can still be the top 10 for the whole 2014 ranking, but not sure if SSB Wii U version can be one of the top 10)
FYI, I think (as far as I know) the comic workshop's tutorial is just about how to use its tools, not about how to draw comic.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, because if it also teach you how to draw comic, similar to art academy, I will definitely buy it.
Watch it every week (now every 2 weeks) on my 3DS.
Especially like all the tips and secrects of SM3DW revealed in the show.
@Barbiegurl777 this video.
It's funny if you have heard of the idolm@ster.
@PvtOttobot Totally agree with you. Less than 2.5 years and there are 4 Denpa Men games, RPG games. Even if each game had significant improvement, it's still too many and fast, not to say that the improvement is trivial.
That's how to destroy a good game brand. I liked this game initially, but now I'm tired of it.
@Miss_Dark At least there are already several comments here claimed that they are waiting for this game.
It's may not for you, but you can't say everyone wants the same game as you.
@Barbiegurl777 I'm a little surprised that someone loves Kuma Tomo in the west, because if other Japanese titles were mentioned in west media somewhat, I think almost nothing for Kuma Tomo. The last video of this game for April Fool is actually very funny.
Use a lot of coins -> beat one stage -> wait several days for the coins -> repeat.
Thanks to yesterday's new panel, I have to wait more days for the coins to play the next stage.
Since you can have at most 334 pokemons for each type during the battle, and without streetpass you can only have 1 type, it's clearly that there's no way to complete this game without lots of streetpass.
I think that's maybe for South American, South Asia or Mid-East market.
That's why Nintendo should continue working on their 3DS or following consoles and not release their new games on mobile platform. There are tons of such cheap imitations, and Nintendo has no effective way (except so called "law" which doesn't always work) to defend their IPs and ideas on others' platform, and no way to attract customers to choose their games if the low quality imitations are much cheaper (because most customers can't really tell the difference before purchasing)

Google Refine
Google Refine is a free tool designed, as the tagline puts it, for "dealing with messy data." Although Refine opens in a browser window, it is a desktop install and can therefore be used even when no internet connection is available. It is extremely useful for quickly transforming, assessing, and cleaning data from a variety of source formats. While its functions for joining, splitting, and summing data are more involved than other spreadsheet programs, its automatic macro-writing feature makes developing these a worthwhile investment in situations where these operations are needed on a regular basis (such as with a weekly or monthly data release).
What is it good for?
High-level analysis
Google Refine is especially good at providing quick, top-line overviews of imported data. For example, it provides an automatic row-count when data is loaded, while the "faceting" does the same for each unique value that appears in a given column. The summary window that this generates can be sorted both alphabetically and by frequency, making small variations or errors in the data easier to identify and update. Finally, selecting one or more of these values filters the dataset to contain only matching rows. These filters can be applied across many columns simultaneously, allowing for quick drilldown to specific value intersections. Any and all of these filters can be removed by closing the corresponding facet summary window.
Format conversion
Google Refine is also useful for transforming data formats. For example, it can automatically parse well-formed XML or JSON into spreadsheet format, an otherwise difficult and time-consuming manual or programmatic task.
Recording actions on the data
As mentioned above, Google Refine also keeps a step-by-step record of any transformative data manipulation (such as merging, splitting, removing or renaming columns), which can viewed and stepped through at any time using the Undo/Redo tab. Although these manipulations are more complex to execute in Refine when compared to other spreadsheet programs, the resulting commands can be applied wholesale to another file of the same structure. This is particularly useful when certain calculations or manipulations must be made on a regular basis, as with monthly economic data and the like.
What does it look like?
The main interface of Google Refine is essentially a spreadsheet layout. The small arrows to the left of each column header provide access to the faceting, sorting, splitting and other features, while the Facet/Filter and Undo/Redo tabs appear next to the current row count.
Unlike most spreadsheet programs, however, a maximum of 50 rows can be viewed at any given time, and beyond this are paginated at the upper right. At any time, the currently selected rows can be exported as a .csv or other format.
How do I use it?
After downloading and installing Google Refine, double-click on the program's blue diamond icon – it will open a new browser window or tab (on a PC, a small, black window may also appear – you can minimize, but do not close, this window).
Loading & parsing data
Select the file you want to open and click
Next. Refine will guess the file type you have selected and offer a visual preview in the top half of the contents in the top half of the window. In the case of non-spreadsheet formats, such as XML and JSON, you simply need to highlight with your mouse the first element you want converted into a row – it will then show you a preview of the resulting file.
By using the
Pick Record Elements and
Update Preview buttons at middle right, you can experiment with your selection until it's correct. Then simply click
Create Project at the upper right.
Select the arrow to the right of the column you want to facet and choose
Facet>>Text facet from the dropdown. The resulting summary will be shown at right. By selecting one of the values, the dataset will be filtered to show only those containing that value.
To add values to the selection, roll over them and choose "Include" to the right of its value.
Where can I find it?
The latest version of Google Refine can be downloaded for free for all platforms at code.google.com. As noted earlier, though the interface operates through a browser window, Refine does not need a web connection to operate, nor does it transmit information to a remote server by default.
Issues & FAQs
While its tools for quickly "faceting" and cleaning data are extremely useful, there are some standard spreadsheet operations (such as concatenating columns and calculating derived values) that are more complex to execute in Google Refine than in programs like OpenOffice or Microsoft Excel, because it uses the custom GREL expression language. However, for complex analyses that must be performed on a regular basis, developing them in Google Refine is often more efficient in the long term, as the macros can be stored separately and so easily reapplied.
Tools & Tutorials
Several in-program and online tutorials have are available at Google Refine's project home page. The downloads page also includes a Getting Started guide and FAQ section. Additional tutorials will also be available on this site in the near future.

Webster Dictionary
the act or process, or the result, of calculating; computation; reckoning, estimate
an expectation based on circumstances
A calculation is a deliberate process that transforms one or more inputs into one or more results, with variable change. The term is used in a variety of senses, from the very definite arithmetical calculation of using an algorithm, to the vague heuristics of calculating a strategy in a competition, or calculating the chance of a successful relationship between two people. For example, multiplying 7 by 6 is a simple algorithmic calculation. Estimating the fair price for financial instruments using the Black–Scholes model is a complex algorithmic calculation. Statistical estimations of the likely election results from opinion polls also involve algorithmic calculations, but produces ranges of possibilities rather than exact answers. To calculate means to ascertain by computing. The English word derives from the Latin calculus, which originally meant a small stone in the gall-bladder. It also meant a pebble used for calculating, or a small stone used as a counter in an abacus. The abacus was an instrument used by Greeks and Romans for arithmetic calculations, preceding the slide-rule and the electronic calculator, and consisted of perforated pebbles sliding on an iron bars.

5 Quick Ways To Get Party-Ready Hair — From Your Office Chair
On holiday-party overload this week? Even if you've got barely enough time to throw on something sparkly — let alone squeeze in a hairstyling session — I'm giving you five tricks to freshen and revive strands in a hurry.

So, hypothetically, when do you think I might actually see my bag again?" The question posed to the very helpful Air Botswana agent in the Kasane airport was of a more urgent nature than that of a typical traveler merely seeking a clean change of underwear. Not that I couldn't use them, too, of course, but I could—and did—borrow skivvies. You see that bag contained my ammunition, which I had packed in Virginia seven days previous, and ammunition is kind of important on a safari.
In that bag—amongst all my other gear—were 60 gleaming, nickel-plated, belted, sausage-like rounds of Federal Premium Safari .458 Lott loaded with 500-grain Trophy Bonded Sledgehammer bullets. Six days into a 10-day safari with a change of venue from the Caprivi in eastern Namibia to the mountains near Windhoek slated for two days later made the matter somewhat urgent to me. Of our group, which included Federal Premium's Tim Brandt, Kimber's Dwight Van Brunt and outdoor writer Mike Scobey, I had the only .458. Van Brunt and Scobey, hunting hippo and crocodile, had .375 H&H Magnums. Brandt's rifle, destined to take a Cape buffalo—and eventually my elephant—was in .416 Rem. Mag.
I had spent day after day practicing with the Lott, ramping up for the opportunity to take an "own use" elephant in the Kasika Conservancy, with all the meat going to feed the Kasika people and the tusks, if there were any, going to the conservancy as well. In the Caprivi Strip, the Chobe River separates the nations of Botswana and Namibia. On the Botswana side, the area includes the Chobe Game Park and one of Africa's most travelled tourist destinations. On the Namibian side, it is far more undeveloped, and there are far too many elephant in the area—on both sides of the river. As a matter of fact, the animal I hunted for six days and ended up taking was declared a "problem" by Namibia Game and Parks due to a bachelor herd's refusal to leave a village. Contrary to popular opinion, elephant in that part of Africa are nowhere near endangered and, in many areas, are dangerously overpopulated.
The Beast
A gunsmith, big-game hunter and one-time technical editor of Guns & Ammo, Jacque P. Lott hunted Africa often, and he was almost killed in 1959 when a .458 Win. Mag. failed to penetrate to his satisfaction on a Cape buffalo. That set Lott in search of .45-cal. cartridge with more power and penetration than was offered at the time in .458 Win. Mag. Lott was looking for a .500-grain, 0.458-inch bullet in the 2,200- to 2,300-fps range from a 22-inch barrel. With no factory cartridge available, he decided to make his own.
The .458 Lott, too, is based on the .375 H&H Mag., but the maximum cartridge overall length is 3.600 inches—0.260-inches longer than the 3.340 inches of the .458 Win. Mag. One of the virtues of the Lott is that .458 Win. Mag. ammunition can be fired out of a .458 Lott-chambered rifle, which may be helpful in remote parts of the world. I say "may" because it helped me not at all.
According to its factory data, Federal Premium Safari Ammunition's 500-grain Trophy Bonded Sledgehammer .458 Lott loading delivers 2,300 fps.at the muzzle and 5,875-ft.lbs. of energy. The same bullet in the company's .458 Win. Mag. factory load leaves the muzzle at 1,950 fps. delivering 4,221 ft.-lbs. of energy. Over an Oehler Model 35P, out of the 24-inch-barreled Caprivi at 15 feet, the Lott load ran at 2,283 fps—very close to the factory number—with 5,786 ft.-lbs. of energy. That is more than 1,500 additional ft.-lbs. of energy over the .458 Win. Mag.
The Federal loading I chose uses the Trophy Bonded Sledgehammer, which has a thick bronze jacket bonded around its lead core. It has a flat meplat (marked with a "T") and is designed for straight-line, deep penetration. The 500-grain bullet in the Lott has three relief grooves around its shank to improve accuracy and reduce pressure, which, judging from my range sessions, seems to have indeed helped with the former.
Between zeroing, testing for accuracy and practicing before the trip, I fired more than 80 rounds of .458 Lott and another 60 of .458 Win. Mag. I knew the rifle well. Off a Caldwell Lead Sled DFT II (which I broke a weld on at round 24) it delivered a 1.17-inch group at 100 yards. Off sticks at 50 yards, I could keep three shots within 4 inches while working the bolt with alacrity.
I have had relatively few genuinely unpleasant experiences with firearms. The majority of them involve the .458 Lott cartridge. A friend who worked with Lott once said of the cartridge: "It's unpleasant; just like the man who made it." It is not really the cartridge's fault; it is merely doing its job, delivering a powerful blow sufficient to fell the largest beasts that walk the earth. The Lott's most recent transgression? The sin of omission. For the latter, blame cannot actually be assigned to the cartridge; that belongs to the crack baggage-handling team in Atlanta.
I have shot five rifles chambered for .458 Lott—owned two and broken two (neither Kimbers)—and must say that the Caprivi is the one that handles the recoil best, points most naturally, shoulders quickly and is utterly reliable. The name is derived from the narrow strip of land in Northeastern Namibia that linked what was German South West Africa to the Zambezi River and Germany's former colony on the East African coast, Tanganyika. And I was fortunate enough to take one there to the wild land that gave the rifle its name.
The Caprivi does not have a true magnum length action—one that would accept say a .416 Rigby—but it is built on the 8400's 1.365-inch-diameter, cylindrical receiver and accepts certain magnum cartridges. The ejection port is 3.51-inches long, so complete .458 cartridges must be just slightly angled for insertion into the magazine. The heart of the Caprivi is its dual-opposed locking lug bolt, which borrows from both the Model 98 and the Arisaka. The claw extractor is on the bolt's right, and there is a three-position wing safety on the bolt shroud's right.
The 24-inch-long barrel has a magnum contour with the front sling swivel mounted ahead of the fore-end on a steel barrel band. Kimber describes the chamber as "match grade," and indeed the rifle was more accurate than it will need to be in the field. There are aluminum pillars for the two stock screws, the barrel is free-floated, and the receiver is bedded its entire length.
The stock has excellent lines and ergonomics, a blend of vintage English Mauser 98-based rifles and classic American lines. On the stock's left is a pancake-style cheekpiece, and its pistol grip has an open radius, which keeps the knuckles from rapping the trigger guard under recoil. There is a 1-inch-thick Pachmayr XL Decelerator recoil pad with plenty of surface area to spread out the Lott's considerable recoil.
I selected Weaver's Dangerous Game 1-5X 24 mm riflescope mounted in Talley rings with throw levers to allow rapid removal of the scope. The Weaver took the pounding every time I pulled the trigger without issue. I will be completely forthright; I did not shoot the square to test the repeatability of the scope. I am not man enough for that. That said, in zeroing, the adjustments worked as advertised, and once set, stayed where they belonged all the way across the world and back.

If you've got a picky eater in your household, try putting some of these strategies from the nutritionists at the American Dietetic Association to the test. In no time, you may see your so-called picky eater blossom into an epicurean adventurer.
Skip the Power Struggle: When your kid won't even taste something you know he'll probably adore, or if he isn't eating as much as you think he should, it can be tempting to force the issue. Don't, experts advise. Forcing kids to take a bite or to eat something they don't want to can just compound the problem and lead to even more finicky eating.
Avoid Labels: Sometimes calling a child a picky eater can backfire when she starts thinking of herself that way. The truth is that many toddlers will simply grow out of selective eating habits if you give them enough time, so it's best not to call attention to the issue.
Be a Repeat Offender: If your child refuses to eat a specific food the first time you serve it, don't automatically assume that she hates it. It's more likely that she's intimidated by trying a "new" thing. But after seeing carrots on her plate six or seven times, she might feel comfortable enough to add it to her list of acceptable foods.
Tap Into Peer Pressure: Do you know what your child's friends are eating? Sometimes, seeing another child eating a new or unfamiliar food is all it takes to get your kid to try it. Ask what his friends bring to school for snacks or lunch, or make a point to schedule a mealtime playdate and use peer pressure to your advantage.
Go Shopping Together: Involve your child in your shopping routine so he feels like he's part of your menu choices at home. Of course, as the parent, you are ultimately in charge of what makes it into the cart, but allowing a child to choose between three kinds of fruit, for example, or which color of cheese he or she would like to try can work wonders. Another strategy: Have your child pick a healthy new "food of the week" for everyone in the family to try.
Get Cooking: Letting your kids help with meal preparation can also help build interest in what is on the table. Even small children can pour an ingredient that Mom or Dad has measured out, or check on cookies or bread through the window in the oven door. As children get older, they can take on bigger roles, such as planning and preparing a well-balanced meal one night a week.
Set an Example: Eat a balanced, healthy diet yourself! Kids pick up cues from their parents. So, if you grudgingly eat your greens, avoid certain food groups or pick junk food over healthier snacks, chances are your child will do the same.
What food does your picky eater surprisingly love? Chime in below!

ISAF Bags Third Taliban Leader in Two Days
By Harold Hutchison
ISAF confirmed the death of a third Taliban leader in two days. Tor Jan, also known as Graan, was killed during an operation in Kandahar province.
Tor Jan was also a Taliban facilitator, who organized attacks against Afghan and coalition forces using IEDs, personnel and weapons. His death came in what an ISAF release termed a "precision strike."
ISAF also captured Taliban leaders in Kandahar province and Ghanzi province, while also nabbing a leader of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan in Kunduz province. Three insurgents were captured during the hunt for a Taliban leader in Nangarhar province.

Child Support Termination Procedures By State
|Thursday, 21 June 2012 00:00
Child support does not automatically terminate once the child reaches the age of emancipation in most states. To stop the collection, you may have to file a motion with the court that originally ordered the support.
So which states require a motion and which states automatically stop child support upon emancipation? DadsDivorce.com researched state child support laws and compiled this comprehensive list of state-by-state child support termination procedures.
If you need assistance ending your child support obligation, please contact Cordell & Cordell child support lawyers.

I have so many questions. Why review a law? Isn't that called a constitutional challenge? What are we reviewing? Whether the law to terminate is constitutional? Are we reviewing whether this particular father should be exempt from the law to terminate? If the child's mother wants child support for a thirty year old child, should not she be the petitioner, rather than the father, who has survived long enough for the law to terminate child support due to emancipation to apply? If paying through a state child support office, the office staff are happpy to enforce every other law related to child support, except the one to terminate? Why would there be tighter laws for a child support order that had been constantly monitored by the state, than one that had not? Why are 85% of people paying child support male? Isn't that unconstitutional?

Child Support
written by B. Brandon, August 15, 2012
In February of 2012, when my son who turned 19 years old I petition the court to stop my child support which was granted. Now several months later, the mother has petition the court to have the order re-open to continue receiving child support. The state of Alabama only states to the age 19 and nothing at all stated concerning the child to still attending high school. Is this correct although the state does not even discuss it or have no guidelines concerning this issue. After researching the topic, states the judge can use his discretion on matters like this.

I am a step mother that took very very good care of my stepson for 16 years. his mother and my husband and I had a great relationship, and he always had anything he ever needed. But due to his mother almost loosing her home, and at the age of 16 he came to us and asked if we would mind that he gets a part time job which was mainly on weekends so we accommodated his request. We have not spoken to him (maybe twice) since. During this period his mother in the midst of loosing her home, that was my husbands fault even though she was swamped with debt had her daughter living in her home with her partner. We became the bad guys "We never did anything for him". Well she proceed to take my husband back to court for more child support. So her child support got raised (child is 18 at this point), my husband as NO right to know anything about what his son is doing (e.x attending school, working, etc...) but we continue to pay child support. On the way out of the court room the ex girlfriend (baby mama)had my husband a paper (note he has a witness with him a friend that attended court as support) it was a report that his son wrote for class and passed in stating that his father was nothing but a "Sperm Donor and a Check in the Mail". And Thanks to the wisdom of the Commonwealth of Mass. That's exactly what he is. Now he is 20 and we are still paying! For what we don't know except he bought a puppy recently.

Premierleague.com rifles through the annals of the Barclays Premier League to find significant events.
Aston Villa manager John Gregory signed German youth international Thomas Hitzlsperger from Bayern Munich as part of a busy summer recruitment drive.
Villa had already signed Luc Nilis, Alpay and David Ginola with Hitzlsperger signing on a two-year deal following a trial with the club earlier in the year.
"My ambition is to play in the Premiership and I intend to reach it," he said. "I have come here to develop as a player and play as a professional."
The then 18-year-old had to wait until January 2001 for his first-team debut, when he came on as an 84th-minute substitute in the 3-0 defeat at home to Liverpool.
The following season, Hitzlsperger went out on loan to Chesterfield but got an extended run in the first team at the end of that campaign, making 12 appearances, while he featured regularly in 2002/03 under new manager Graham Taylor.
Hitzlsperger became a Villa Park favourite and was christened 'Der Hammer' because of his explosive shooting prowess which brought about some spectacular goals. In 2004 he was named as Young Player of the Year by the Midlands Football Writers' Association.
His time at Villa Park came to an end in 2005, when he signed for Stuttgart, and he left having made 99 League appearances for Villa, scoring eight goals.
After spells in Germany and then in Italy with Lazio, Hitzlsperger returned to England in 2010 when he was signed by West Ham United while last October he joined Everton on a short-term deal.

your homebuilding process
Whether this is your first home or your third, buying a new home is completely different from buying a resale home. First and foremost the new home process, from the time you sign to the time you move in, is approximately 9 months* versus a month or so for resale. Plan this timeline accordingly by working back from when you want to move in, take into consideration seasonal preference or a work situation.
The trade off for a long timeline is your new home will be more personalized and you can plan it to suite your lifestyle. Another advantage is the comprehensive warranties that accompany a new home. Your home will be completely insured for any builder defect for up to a year after the possession date.
Visit the showhomes
Start the home buying process by visiting as many show homes as possible. There are numerous sizes, builder plans, and styles to consider. The more showhomes you visit the better you will understand your preferences and needs.
Show homes also give you the opportunity to examine a builder's craftsmanship. Take your time inspecting the quality of construction features such as structural components, carpentry and finishes such as flooring and paint.
This is also your chance to ask any questions about the home or the builder you may have. Showhomes are staffed by knowledgeable sales associates who are there to assist you during the home buying process.
Get to know the builders
Choosing a builder is a crucial turning point in your home search. From start to finish, it can take the better part of a year to build a home. You want to make sure that the company you partner with for the experience will be working with you and not against you.
The warranty provided with the home is an important consideration. New homes in Alberta built by registered members of the Alberta New Home Warranty Program (ANHWP) are automatically enrolled into the program when you sign a purchase agreement with the builder. Ask to see a copy of the builder's registration certificate, verifying that they are registered with the program.
Also find out from each builder what kind of service you can expect after the sale. Builders are typically expected to contact you after you move in to resolve any problems covered by the builders warranty.
Purchasing your home – purchase agreement
Once you have chosen the home you want to build and the builder you want to build with speak to the builder's representative about a purchase agreement. The purchase agreement is a legally binding agreement between you and the builder for the sale of a home to be constructed and the land it will be built on.
The Alberta New Home Warranty Program (ANHWP) provides the forms to registered builders and establishes the terms and conditions in the agreement. The agreement will describe the property in detail, including a civic address, a legal address, total selling price, and the deposit you will have to make. With Sabal, your deposit is protected by the ANHWP for up to 20% of the purchase price for a single-family home (to a maximum of $100,000).
It's important to make sure that everything is specifically written into the agreement. Anything left out, even if you had discussed items verbally with your sales consultant, will not be binding on either party. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this document you may want to consult legal counsel. Buyers who purchase homes from Sabal have access to legal counsel at the time of closing, provided at no extra charge.
The final step in creating a binding purchase agreement is mortgage approval from your bank. The quicker you obtain approval, the soon the pre-construction phase will begin.

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.
Posted on January 26, 2012
Contact Members of the Judiciary Committee and Urge Them to Support LB 804
Yesterday, Legislative Bill 804 was heard by the Judiciary Committee. Favorable testimony was given by representatives of the NRA, as well as the NRA's state association and concerned citizens who see the absolute need for this important legislation.
LB 804, introduced by state Senator Scott Lautenbaugh (18), is critical for law-abiding citizens in the Cornhusker State. Current Nebraska law places the burden of proof on the homeowner when confronting an intruder and hinders your ability to decide when you can use deadly force to protect yourself and your family. This bill would create a presumption in the favor of a person who uses force against an intruder who has, or is attempting to, unlawfully and forcibly enter a dwelling or occupied vehicle. In such cases, deadly force would be presumed to be necessary for defense of those within the premises.
Opponents are trying to paint this legislation as a loophole for criminals to commit lethal acts of violence. Such a claim could not be any further from the truth. Under current law, a person who uses force in self-defense has to come forward with evidence justifying his or her actions and is subject to an after-the-fact determination of the necessity and reasonability of the forced used. LB 804 would shift the risk of burglaries and car-jackings away from innocent homeowners and motorists forced to defend themselves and place it where it belongs: on the perpetrators of criminal offenses.
The NRA will continue to work with members of the Judiciary Committee on LB 804, but we need your help. Please contact members of the Judiciary Committee today and respectfully urge them to support LB 804. Contact information can be found below.

High-definition audio studio
Cirlinca's software products provide the essential features to create rich media with HD music. With it, you can import music (high-definition or standart CD resolution), process it if desired (upsample, upmix, VST plug-ins) and export it to DVD-Audio/Video, Blu-ray discs or computer files.
High-resolution music download sites
Benefits of remastering music
Get more from your music collection. Import music tracks from computer files, CD or DVD-Audio discs (non protected, non MLP). If they are in stereo, convert them to surround 5.1 for an immersive experience. And/or upsample them to high-definition up to 24bit/192kHz for enhanced clarity and details. Export to DVD, Blu-ray or files.
When your music is not already in high-definition or surround (e.g. it is of CD quality), you will benefit to remaster it (i.e. process and/or convert) :
To encode the audio signal in a way that is more easily reproducible by electronics equipment with less distorsion and closer to the original analog signal with a technique called upsampling.
To supplement the stereo reproduction with surround channels to restore the sound stage to something closer to reality with a technique called upmixing. The front stereo channels can be left unchanged.
The result is a superior listening experience having more definition, clarity and presence, that has been qualified as "more fluid, less harsh and an all round better sound".
All features : audio remastering and DVD-Audio / Video / Blu-ray discs authoring
Remastering features (upsampling, upmixing, VST plug-ins)
DVD-Audio and DVD-Video discs authoring
3 product editions to choose from
HD-Audio Solo Ultra

Typical use cases
Cirlinca's products can be used with or without remastering, depending on your needs, to author high-definition surround media, as illustrated in the following typical cases :
Features highlight
VST plug-ins support
Cirlinca's VST enabled applications act as a VST host capable of accepting most VST plug-ins (3) for processing on the fly. There is vast offer or commercial and freeware VST plug-ins, ranging from audio effects to spectrum analyzers.

A broad choice of export media for authoring
Author DVD-Audio discs, DVD-Video discs,
universal DVD-Audio/Video, Blu-ray discs or
export to computer files
If you want the most versatile audio format, the clear choice is DVD-Audio. This standard supports up to 24bit/192 kHz in stereo and 24 bit/96 kHz in surround 5.1. It offers many unique features for audiophiles. You will need a DVD player that is DVD-Audio capable (e.g. from Denon, Oppo, Marantz, Harman-kardon, Meridian, Pioneer, ...). DVD-Audio players tend to have higher quality audio paths than standard players.
If your interest is for stereo at 24bit/96kHz or 24bit/48kHz, then a standard DVD-Video disc is a sufficient media when played through a good quality player.
To author surround 5.1 tracks in full 24bit / 96kHz or if disc capacity is a major concern, consider choosing Blu-ray.
Export to audio files if your audio playback devices are PC or Mac or or Multimedia disc based player. Most multimedia players can play DVD-Video ISO files with menus, which is a convenient way to structure big playlists without burning discs (and add visual interaction).

Word buzzed around Cannes about pointed comments Mickey Rourke (White Sands) had made to a reporter for London's Evening Standard in Milan earlier in the week. ''The blood of Los Angeles falls on those who instigated this revolt,'' the paper quoted him as saying about the riots, ''the malicious prophets of black cinema and rap music, the movies such as those of (Spike) Lee and (John) Singleton.''
When Lee, who was promoting Malcolm X at Cannes, was told of Rourke's comments, he told Entertainment Weekly, ''Mickey Rourke is a f---ing a-- hole. He's a f---ing redneck, motherf---ing cracker, a motorcycle-riding...you know, what kind of work does he do? I mean, he's an idiot! He's been riding a motorcycle without a helmet, and he's punch-drunk from being in the ring. How can Mickey Rourke say that me and John Singleton are responsible for the riots in L.A.? Like his films are responsible? He should get a f---ing shave, take a shower....''
Director Alan Rudolph (Equinox) weighed in earlier in the weekend at the Majestic's hotel bar after Rourke's comments became public: ''I think it's a little difficult for someone like Rourke, who has appeared in films of a violent nature, to be pointing a finger at someone else.''

Backyard Boot Camp Workout
We'll help you turn your home into a playing field with our calorie-blasting boot camp workout routine.
Hi, I'm Angela Parker from Body Inspired Fitness, and Katie and I are gonna show you one of our favorite exercises. Katie, come into position for me. We're gonna take one foot on either side of the hose. She's gonna drop down into the bottom of a squat position really in her heels. Her tummy is crazy tight. Now she's gonna take a nice big inhale and on her exhale, she's gonna jump up as fast as she can and click her heels together and then land back into this position. So go ahead and start. Why don't you give us 3 or 4? Perfect. Now she's getting really high off the ground. You do not have to get this high, but it's so beautiful and it's something to aspire for. We are gonna take the soccer ball and place it right in the back of her legs where her calves and the back of her thighs meet. She's gonna squeeze that soccer ball in as tight as she can. She's gonna draw her knees into her chest, really working the low belly. And then she's gonna move forward, place her sneakers down on to the mat, press into her heels and lift her booty up. You like that abs and booty, right? So lower back down. Give me a few reps of this, Katie. So as she draws her knees in-- look how high up her tush is coming. That's what we're aiming for. And then as she presses her heels down, it's all about getting your butt up as high as possible. We're gonna come on to our right foot. We're gonna take our left leg back behind us and we're gonna tap the ground with our left hand, so it's opposite hand and foot. You wanna get as low into this position as you possibly can because in a second we're gonna jump super fast to the other side. Ready, ready, and go. Perfect. Notice how we landed exactly in the position just on the other side. Stay loose in the body. Let's do 5. Ready? Here we go. 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1. As we build into this exercise, it's really important to have a foundation and simply be able to hold this first. The key is her shoulders are directly above her wrists. Her hips are at the same place as her shoulders and her belly is super tight. Katie is gonna reach her right leg out to the side. Look at her core, it didn't even more. Her arms are still in the same position and then she's gonna switch the other leg and lift up the other side. Notice that nothing is changing in the center of her body and that is super important. So give me a few reps on this, Katie, one side to the next. Notice that nothing changes in the center and her shoulders are still above her wrists. Now if you're feeling a little spicy, instead of placing one foot down and lifting up the other, I wanna encourage you to swing it to the other side as quickly as you can and replace it. So, Katie, step on up for me. Oh, you did it! Perfect! Give me another one. Good. Give me one more. You did it! The key is keeping your tummy as tight as you can. Her arms are perfect. The more you move your arms, the easier this exercise becomes. What she's doing so beautifully is she's truly landing in the front heel. It's all about staying in that heel. You're perfect. Come into high plank for me. Go ahead and reach those legs back. I'm gonna place the ball under her shins and then with the superstar here, she's gonna bring her knees into her chest, tucking her knees in all the way and then lengthening back. So give me 2 more. Her belly is so tight. Her shoulders are on fire. Great, freeze. And then let me take the ball from you, Katie, and come into a high plank position. What she's gonna do now is she's gonna just draw a knee into her chest. So bring one knee in towards her chest and squeeze your tummy as tight as you can and then take that leg back. Give me 5 reps of those. This is the same exercise. We're just getting rid of the soccer ball and making it a little bit easier but still the work is happening especially in that low belly. Perfect. Stick your chest out for me, Katie. Really engage that belly as tight as you can. Now, I want you to float your leg down just a little bit for me and I now need to lift your arms and your leg up at the same time so that everything is hip high. So float your arms up for me as well as the leg. Keep your tummy super tight and then take it back down to the bottom. Give me a few reps of that. This exercise is fantastic, not only for developing balance but getting that tushy super strong, engaging the core all the way from the top of the tush to the middle of the back, and the best part is this part of the top. She's engaging all the muscles in the back which is so beautiful for defining a gorgeous back for tank tops and bathing suits. She's gonna start in a high plank position with her shoulders directly above her wrists, keeping her tummy as tight as she can. She's gonna tip over into now what is the side plank, so challenging. In the side plank's position, she's gonna try to reach her arm up towards the sky. This might be where most of you stop. This is already really hard, but if you're up for the challenge, lift your top leg off the other shoe. Reach in towards your body and then extend it long just like she's doing here. The hardest thing is keeping your tummy so tight because the side walls want to work, but your abdominals actually are trying to push forward. Fight that feeling and pull your belly in as tight as you possibly can. Give me just one more. Gorgeous!
