Supporting Factory WorkersTo help our suppliers continuously improve, we share best practices, promote transparency, and communicate industry changes and legal requirements. We also encourage our suppliers' efforts to develop employees' capabilities and contribute to local economies. We want to move beyond compliance to focus more on building capabilities at our suppliers' operations. To that end, we work with our suppliers at their factories to help them strengthen areas where we see opportunities for improvement based on direct engagement, audits, or surveys.
We encourage two-way dialogue to learn from our suppliers' experience and insight, and we use that knowledge to further refine our strategy and engagement approach. Through open communication and long-term commitment, we can support lasting change and real investment in programs that improve working conditions and lessen environmental impacts.
We look beyond the factory walls too, seeking to improve the livelihoods of those in our supply chain at home as well as at work. For example, we have partnered with one of our large Keurig® brewer manufacturers in China to host a series of 20 life skills training classes (14 of which we completed in fiscal 2013) on topics ranging from interpersonal relationships and communication to managing money, career planning, and conflict resolution. The goal of the classes is to provide continuous education on fundamental livelihood needs and improve workers' confidence and morale in the workplace and at home. We strive to provide skills that help workers adjust to new environments since many workers migrate to distant locations to find jobs that will support them and their families. It's important to us that we do our part to support the people within our supply chain who produce our products and, therefore, help our business and our suppliers' businesses grow while providing our customers with high-quality Keurig® brewers. Over the course of a year, we anticipate that up to 8,000 employees may benefit from these classes.
Engaging Our Employees
Internally, we want our employees who work with suppliers to be familiar with the social and environmental issues that could occur within our supply chains. In 2012 and 2013, a director-level council worked to align processes around purchasing decisions. In early 2014, we established a cross-functional operating committee to explore how these processes intersect with sustainability strategies and integrate the two. Our procurement department is regularly engaged on supplier assessment and engagement results, changes to policies such as our Supplier Guidelines, and other emerging issues relevant to our supply chains and to business decisions.
We also intend to initiate training for employees who manage suppliers within our organization. Using our Supplier Guidelines as a foundation, we will teach employees how to recognize sourcing practices that are not responsible and help them gain a greater understanding of social and environmental issues especially relevant to our supply chain.

The Metal Blade tent gives you a free pack of bookmarks, by the way. They're all with band logos (Red Fang, Clutch, All Shall Perish, JFAC, Red Chord, 3IOB, Chimaira, and more), and the Roadrunner tent will give you a Machine Head lithograph signed by the band if you pre-order the album. If something pretty signed is what you want, save your money and get a free Machine Head poster when you come to Machine Head's autograph session. For those who want to meet Trivium, you've got to pre-order it or else it's a no-go. They give you a bracelet and if you don't have it when you get in line for the signings, they'll throw you out.
Also, the vendors at the official Mayhem merch table are complete dicks.

Greenwood Elementary 5th Graders Learn About Money
Are you smarter than a 5th grader? Professor David Mitchell, Director of the Center for Economic Education at MSU, recently spent time with the 5th graders at Greenwood Elementary teaching them a bit about the functions of money through a few interactive exercises.
In one activity, students were given a bag of treats that had different quantities of different things inside. For example, some might have Hello Kitty pencils, Spiderman pens, a slinky, a small flashlight, and assorted candies. Students were asked if they liked everything in their bag and then were given a few minutes to trade with their classmates if they wanted something else. At the conclusion of trading, students were asked how easy or difficult it was to trade and find people who had the items that they wanted and were willing to trade. In short, students were introduced to the problem of the double coincidence of wants. Students were then told how money, as a medium of exchange, solves the problem of the double coincidence of wants.
Students also learned about the need to include anti-counterfeiting measures in money, were shown different currencies from around the world, and were shown a picture of the stone money of Yap, a currency that can weigh up to 3 tons!

Is light polluting the sky? Answers could keep you up at night
Light pollution, as defined by the International Dark Sky Association, is any adverse effect of artificial light, including sky glow, glare, light trespass, light clutter, decreased visibility at night and energy waste. Economics faculty members Drs. Terrel Gallaway, David Mitchell and Reed Olsen have published several articles on their recent studies of light pollution and the value of a dark sky, and they see economic effects in addition to the biologic and conservation issues.
Through surveying visitors to four national parks, the team assessed the value people place on a dark sky – one that is not showing sky glow. They tried to discern how much people would pay a utility company to have more efficient lighting placed in their communities and whether they would pay additional taxes to preserve the naturally dark sky. Mitchell explained some of the follow-up questions.
"Are they willing to pay to keep light pollution away from national parks but not their own home? For instance, people want to go to a place to be able to see tigers, bears and lions, but they don't want tigers, bears and lions in their own backyard. It's that idea," he said.
Olsen said that 25 percent of power used in the U.S. is used for lighting and an estimated 30 percent of that is wasted as light pollution, equating to approximately $25-$30 billion per year.
The first studies of light pollution focus on the biologic aspects, Olsen noted. Most species on Earth depend on periods of light and darkness, and biologists are concerned about the lack of biodiversity when nocturnal animals are disoriented by light pollution.
"I think the most ubiquitous problems for humans, though, is a lack of sleep if it's not dark," said Olsen.
In June, CNN reported that toward the end of his life, Michael Jackson sustained more than 60 nights without reaching the REM (rapid eye movement) cycle – the deepest sleep cycle in which you experience dreams. Mitchell related Jackson's scenario to their topic of light pollution and sky glow. If people sleep fewer hours overall, and therefore have less REM sleep, does that lead to more physical and mental health issues?
"It's widely documented that when people don't get good sleep at night, it interferes with their hormones. In women, this could mean higher incidences of breast cancer," said Mitchell. Other chronic conditions that have been related to hormones or sleep include obesity, diabetes, migraines and hypertension.
At the national parks, for astronomers and for many Americans, the most visible problem associated with light pollution is the aesthetics.
"You don't see a really dark sky in Springfield. The most recent example would have been during the ice storms of January 2007 when power was lost widely in the community," Olsen said. "The situation was bad, but the skies were magnificent."
"Hot Topic – Expert Source" releases are a tool the office of university communications provides to assist media in locating a university source to comment on a particular subject or issue. The opinions expressed by the expert are those of a specific individual and are not necessarily representative of the views of the university.
Economists research value of dark sky at four national parks
According to the International Dark-Sky Association, human-produced light pollution not only mars our view of the stars; poor lighting threatens astronomy, disrupts ecosystems, affects human circadian rhythms and wastes energy. Drs. Reed Olsen and David Mitchell from the economics department at Missouri State University discuss some of the findings from the light pollution research they conducted at four national parks alongside Dr. Terrel Gallaway.

Manual recording for OTA subchannel with no guide info?
Posted 14 July 2011 - 01:47 PM
Posted 14 July 2011 - 06:04 PM
I believe all our STB's and DVR's would have to be swapped out if E* decided to use the PSIP data. I'm guessing it's a hardware issue as well as software.

Right guide data was unblocked for us, which I think should be normal. It wasn't dish guide data because it had all the sub channels which dish does not have in my dma.
The only EPG data you will ever see is Dish supplied.
In many market Dish supplies subchannel data too, even though they don't carry those channels via satellite.
None of the Dish receivers in service designed for SAT service (Those TV Pal ones are excluded from this discussion for obvious reasons) use the PSIP data for anything other than determining the virtual channel names.

You're still missing part of the picture here....it was DISH guide data. One of the reasons to subscribe to locals thru DISH is so they provide you the OTA guide data, which should include most if not all subchannels you can receive via OTA in your market. Are you starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel now?
Posted 15 July 2011 - 09:14 AM
I'm not sure you are understanding all of what I'm saying here. There are two types of guide data out there at least. One the OTA's provide for free which comes into an antenna, through the cable and hits the receiver. As mentioned, this is PSIP. Either I was seeing this guide info for a couple of weeks or I was seeing Dish guide data which would then presume that Dish gets guide data and provides guide data for more than just the OTA's they sell. As also mentioned Dish does use some PSIP data to remap the channels to the right place so either I was seeing PSIP guide data or Dish is throwing away free guide data at the receiver and presenting me with "Digital Service."
In short, my point is, Dish is the company that seems to be a bit more focused on the user than Cable, ATT or Direct in my experience. It surprises me that Dish would chose to throw away free guide data (sure it doesn't go out as far, but does that matter, to everyone? Not me) and create a scenario where they look to be forcing people to pay for something that is actually free (well actually no, I've paid so Dish would be making me pay twice since I'm far enough away that I needed to put a pretty good sized antenna on my roof) because it's wrapped up in their package.
I'm pretty sure you just don't get what I'm talking about here but that's fine. I didn't have the guide data before, I had a glimmer of hope that Dish was more user focused but I guess I was wrong and they aren't, bummer.
Posted 15 July 2011 - 10:36 AM
PSIP and to some extent TVGOS data are the OTA ones.
Posted 15 July 2011 - 10:52 AM
To recap, I'm not looking for Dish to give me something for free that they are paying for. I ponied up and put up an antenna and get the OTA's and guide info to my TV tuners. I loved the fact that my 722 came with an OTA tuner so that I could just change the channels on Dish and get the OTA's rather than changing the TV channel. It would have been cool to just pass the PSIP guide info too.
Posted 15 July 2011 - 12:11 PM
So are you sure that's how it works or are you speculating? If you know the software and how it works, then fine, just say that. If you don't, you are probably speculating.
I'm completely understanding what you are saying...I'm also telling you I know how it works. I don't think I implied in any of my earlier replies that "I think it works this way". I just flat out said, this is the way it works....DISH and Direct chose a similar approach to OTA guide data integration on their devices...they didnt use the PSIP data, which IIRC, since I rarely use the data on my tv's internal tuner, only goes out a few hours....virtually useless for DVR name based scheduling, unless thats just the way many tv's choose to implement because they are not actual recording devices. If you would like to shell out a few hundred for on of those DISH DTV-PAL standalone dvr's, more power to you, but I actually like the OTA guide data integration...I dont have to futz with changing tv inputs, or switching sources to watch OTA vs. sat channels, its all seamless. I will say that I dont think cable even gives you the option of using OTA and integrating the OTA guide data into their set top boxes, and have you seen the PQ of the locals on cable vs OTA, you couldn't pay me be a cable subscriber...macroblocky pixellated crap...
Posted 15 July 2011 - 02:30 PM
That said, I can certainly understand why Dish and Direct chose to purchase Tribune data for DVR'ing. I'm sure it works very well and it probably makes the programming easier. Of course I will note that you can purchase OTA DVR's that will record things for you and they seem to do just fine with the OTA data so I don't think it's "virtually useless for DVR name based scheduling" maybe it's just a bit harder, shrug. I too like OTA integration but since I've already sunk the $$ into an antenna (if I lived close enough for one of those home made bow tie ones maybe I wouldn't mind as much but alas I'm far enough away to need a bigger antenna) it seems a bit pointless to me to pay for something again. Sure, I could look at it as I'm paying $6/month for guide data which seems a bit much to me but then again, I don't know how much Tribune costs per person.
Anyway, my point is that there is free guide data out there and offering it would offer Dish customers another option. I could be the only guy in the world who wants this but I sort of doubt it. I assume the TV manufacturers (and Dish for that matter with the $40 DTV-PAL) felt getting the free guide data was worthwhile when building them.
Either way, I've done manual timers before and will continue to do them. If I ever get to the point where I need the locals from Dish I'll gladly pay the $6/month and enjoy the guide info since then the $$ seems worth it. At this point, it's not since I only gain guide data.
Thanks for the education on how it all works, much appreciated.

I totally get and agree with what you are saying. Guide data for OTA channels that the provider (Dish) choose to put in their guide stream (sourced from Tribune, etc) should be the first option, but failing that, the boxes could display and utilize PSIP sourced data as a fallback position. If the OTA station does not even provide that, then show "digital service" or "no information available".
Posted 15 July 2011 - 03:34 PM
That data has not always been reliable... and is not always there for all customers in all markets. When it is there, it is not an extended EPG like Dish gives for 9 days on their DVRs. It is usually less than 24 hours... so it would be almost useless for a DVR to have such limited EPG data.
Also... IF Dish did use that PSIP EPG data... then IF it was wrong, people would still to complain to Dish. Granted, the Tribune data is wrong sometimes too... but at least Dish could threaten to stop paying for it IF they don't get on the ball... Dish has no leverage over an incorrect PSIP EPG.
Bottom line... Dish isn't in the business to provide you access to OTA signals... they do it because they can, and because a lot of customers like it... and Dish tries to integrate as much as they can without creating even more headache.
This is one of those rare customer-unfriendly decisions that I actually have to agree with Dish about.
-- Respect the S.H.I.E.L.D.
Posted 15 July 2011 - 05:10 PM
To me, I'm more of a give people a choice type of person. Dish has been better about this than most but just because you are better than the other guys it doesn't mean you are doing your best. And, I've worked for companies who were the best but didn't take care of customers or look for better ways to do things and they didn't tend to stay on top.
I like Dish better than any of the other options (so the complaints about how awful cable are really don't mean much to me, I don't like it anyway:-)). I'm just pointing out something they could do better. Oh, and if complaints are a problem, just make the guide info an option (enable OTA PSIP guide?) with a pop up that tells the user that it's non Dish provided data. It's really not THAT hard.
Posted 15 July 2011 - 11:34 PM
Hmm, interesting. Dish isn't in the business of providing me a means of getting OTA channels integrated in the guide either and I'm assuming that people are just as likely to complain to Dish about their OTA signal being Dish's fault as they'd be to guide info being wrong.
That wasn't my main point... but it is still a true one. The primary purpose of Dish is to sell satellite programming. They have integrated (or optional add-ons for some receivers) OTA tuners to appease those customers who want both... and Dish does a reasonably good job of that integration into the EPG.
Not having EPG data for all sub-channels is a nuisance... and I grant you that I wish they wouldn't tie the EPG to a subscription to locals... I wish Dish would just provide the data and end all the arguments... but I can't blame them for trying to get every dollar they can. I can just blame them for the EPG data that you still don't get even when you pay.
To me, I'm more of a give people a choice type of person.
I'm just pointing out something they could do better. Oh, and if complaints are a problem, just make the guide info an option (enable OTA PSIP guide?) with a pop up that tells the user that it's non Dish provided data. It's really not THAT hard.
It may or may not be "hard" but it would be different and additional programming effort to create and maintain... so it wouldn't be "Free" since they would have to pay someone to write the code... but be that as it may...
You are still missing the primary reason... PSIP OTA EPG data is not always good, consistent, or even available for you... and even when there, it is not something that you can see what is on 2 days from now or a week like the Dish EPG data... so it would be almost useless for your Dish DVR to even try to use the PSIP data.

WHAM13 - Search Results
Chief on police cameras and scanners
Rochester, N.Y. --- In 2008 the City of Rochester purchased 50 surveillance cameras for the police department.
Today, that has grown into a network of more than one hundred so called blue light cameras deployed all over the city.
Those cameras were initially met by resistance from some citizens who wondered what the cameras would record and where they would be pointed.
The Rochester Police Department claims the cameras helped solve, and prevent crime.
Its been a helpful tool but its not the cure-all, explained Rochester Police Chief James Sheppard. A lot of people think that if we put a camera up its going to solve all the problems and thats not true. What it may do is displace crimes, instead of this corner they move into the middle of the block.
Yet Chief Sheppard maintained the cameras are working and mobile blue light camera units are also deployed throughout the city.
A national debate also centers around the use of license plate scanners by police departments. The scanners are mounted on top of police patrol cars and the data is stored, in some cases for an unknown amount of time.
There is a greater risk of misuse that it will be given to someone else who will have a perverse interest in the material so let's err in the side of privacy," Scott Forsythe of the American Civil Liberties Union said.
"The fact of the matter is if you drive a vehicle on a public street anybody can write down that license plate and so if that's the case you really don't have a right to privacy," Chief Sheppard counters.
These are some of the issues and topics 13WHAM News will explore during a town hall event Thursday, October 10, called: Your Privacy, Your Security.
We think that its important to have this debate because I think everybodys going to learn something, Sheppard said.
Chief Sheppard, will be joined by former U.S. Attorney Terrance Flynn, WHAM 1180 talk show host Bob Lonsberry, and citizen Larry Krieger who is pursuing legal action against Rochester because of a red light ticket.
13WHAM's Your Privacy, Your Security Town Hall event will be held at the theater inside The Strongs National Museum of Play.

55% of Censured Docs Face No Licensing Action by State Medical Boards
Because the NPDB public use file identifies physicians through the use of code numbers rather than names, the identities of these physicians have not been made public.
Of the 5,887 whose staff privileges were curtailed, 220 were identified as causing an immediate threat to health or safety, 605 were disciplined for substandard care, and 1,119 because of incompetence, negligence, or malpractice. Other categories of substandard behavior included sexual misconduct, inability to practice safely, fraud including insurance fraud or fraud obtaining a license and fraud against healthcare programs and narcotics violations.
Of the 5,887 doctors who escaped licensure action, 3,6707 had either a permanent penalty from their hospital or a penalty of a year or more, but no state medical board action.
The report says that some states had far worse track records of not taking action against doctors whose peer reviews had resulted in a report to the NPDB.
In Illinois, for example, "a doctor had clinical privileges permanently revoked in 1999 and accumulated 10 medical malpractice reports between 1992 and 2006 totaling $7 million for, among other things, improperly managing cases, failing to diagnose and failing to identify fetal distress. One patient suffered a major permanent injury while another became a quadriplegic due to a brain injury. Yet Illinois did not discipline the doctor," the group said.
And "in Florida, a doctor had hospital privileges permanently revoked in 2002 for incompetence and racked up 10 medical malpractice reports totaling $1 million between 1992 and 2009 for, among other things, an unnecessary procedure, leaving a foreign body in a patient, and misdiagnosis. Two patients died. Yet the state of Florida took now disciplinary action against the doctor."
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

One thing comes to mind. Was the evaluation of the surgeon or physician fair at the hospital peer review? Under the federal law called the Health Care Quality Improvement Act of 1986, the ONLY right that the doctor ( MD, DO, DPM, DDS) has is "procedural due process". He does not have "due process rights". Yes, I know it is hard to believe but this is the fact. The details can be seen at The Center for Peer Review Justice, www.PeerReview.org . Physician Peer Review can be fine and proper, or it can be "gamed" as the Hospital and all concerned enjoy immunity under this Law and case law that follows. And, a doctor can be called "disruptive" and be on the fast tract towards losing his Licence. How is "disruptive physician" or a "disruptive surgeon" defined? After 11 years of seeing hundreds of cases, it is definded as anything that the CEO says it is. Really. But, there ARE solutions that have been developed.
Shammed Doc (3/19/2011 at 2:01 AM)
There is a major flaw in assuming that a hospital's decision to revoke a physician's privileges or to enforce a disciplinary action necessarily means that a physician is actually bad. This is not even the most likely scenario by any stretch of imagination. The current laws actually do not have a provision, whatsoever, that an accused physician be provided with a constitutional "due process", believe it or not. In other words, if some gang up, and they control the entire process against an undesirable physician (for whatever reason) there is no recourse for the physician since she/he may not be given the right to an "impartial" authority (equal to an impartial jury). So, I just wanted to alert the readers that the current process lumps together rogue doctors with excellent ones who got "shammed" by their peers. A peer review reform is needed to protect the patients from the rogue doctors who stay in power without being subjected to any reviews, and protect the good doctors who are now pushed under the bus by malicious-acting peers. Patients are victims of a process that does not effectively differentiate the definitely good from the definitely bad. Loopholes get exploited all the time. I try to increase awareness with this important issue via a blog www.shammeddoc.blogspot.com .

Keep in mind that doctors can be reported to the NPDB for minor things such as not signing charts in a timely manner. While bad, it is not the same as leaving a foreign object in a patient. This story is taking something that needs to be looked at and blowing it out of proportion for publicity and ratings.

Keith Richards on Tonight Show [VIDEO]
The rock n roller stopped by the Tonight Show last night to promote his new venture.
The rock n roller stopped by the Tonight Show last night to promote his new venture.
"My body left the car," wrote Richards. "I watched it all happen from 12, 15 feet above. You can leave your body, believe me. I'd been trying all my life, but this was the first real experience of it."
The Rolling Stones guitarist is joined by a group of virtual collaborators from all over the world for a spirited take on one of his solo tracks.
The Rolling Stones are heading to Australia in the spring as part of their 2014 tour, but Keith Richards is already there -- on TV, anyway.
Keith Richards has played thousands of shows during his career, both with and without the Rolling Stones, but the one he later referred to as his "most spectacular" took place in Sacramento on Dec. 3, 1965.
Keith Richards will return for his third appearance in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movie series as Captain Jack Sparrow's father. And this time the Rolling Stones guitarist plays a pivotal role in the film's plot.
Keith Richards has always said that the goal of the Rolling Stones in the early days was to bring the blues to London. In a new interview, he discusses a side benefit, which threw him for a loop back in the day.
What do you get the rock legend who already has everything? For one Keith Richards fan, the answer was allegedly "a homemade bomb."
Keith really didn't do much to hide his drug use. A new tell-all book looks deeper into the Stones drug life.

Nkaitole can't run from his problems and, it turns out, can't fly from them either. Instead, this airplane ride is just a temporary escape from the realities of his situation. The reality is that prior to this trip, he didn't own a suitcase. So his mother lent him her dirty pocketbook, bedazzled in fake jewels, to pack his tattered clothes in. He'd never been through an airport security screening before. The only security he knew was the thorn bushes he helped set up around his village to keep the lions from eating the goats and cows. Or worse. And when he's been thirsty, there's never been a flight attendant to bring him a bottle of clean water. Because the water sources in his village are unfit for human consumption. So much so that the water kills one in five children before their fifth birthday. That's why Nkaitole's first airplane ride has no happy destination. Rather, it's just one of the many things that make up his bucket list. Something no four year old should even have in the first place.
To make a change in the life of Nkaitole and other children like him, donate to WATERisLIFE.com.

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 7 nights
Bring your own boat and use the long dock, or just enjoy the beach and gentle slope into the water. Rocklette is tucked just inside the mouth of West Bay, so it's protected but also has great views of the lake. We have 42 feet of waterfront, which is just perfect for all kinds of water activities. Plus, we're right next to the uninhabited end of the lake, so there's very little boat traffic.
Rocklette includes a chemical-free two-person hot tub on the deck just outside the master suite (and also accessible from the main deck.) That means you won't smell like chlorine after you use it – and it's a great way to warm up after waterskiing early in the morning, or just enjoying a cocktail at sunset!
Inside, the house is perfect for one or two families, with two bedrooms with queen beds, plus two loft bedrooms with four twin beds and lots of extra floor space for kids. Enjoy the Jacuzzi tub in the full bath in the master suite, and the main bath is also a full bathroom. The second bedroom also has an ensuite powder room. Finally, the leather sofa in the living room is a pull-out full-sized bed for extra sleeping accommodations.
We want you to feel that you've gotten such a great vacation that you can't wait to book Rocklette again for future trips. Diamond Lake is inexpensive relative to Lake Chelan or Coeur d'Alene, but it's the perfect size lake for all water sports including fishing (trout, bass, sunfish and perch), waterskiing or jet skis, swimming, canoeing, sailing, or just floating lazily on an inflatable. We live right next door most of the summer, so we can answer any questions you have or direct you to some of the local activities on and around Diamond Lake.
Keywords: Lake Cabin
Hi, I'm Denise. My husband Doug and I want to welcome you to visit Rocklette. We're active owners, generally living in our place next door during summer, and we love meeting the folks who join us at Diamond Lake!
Doug Gorder purchased this cabin in 2008
We bought Rocklette in late 2008 since it's right next door to our place, Rocktail, which we've owned since 2000. We completely renovated Rocklette for rental in 2009, and it's now available for summer rentals!
You'll love the coziness and warm colors of "Rocklette," our two-bedroom, two loft home. We put in lots of touches that we liked in places we stay, such as great mattresses with plush bedding and high thread-count sheets, comfortable leather furniture, a fully-equipped kitchen, great colors and warm lighting. Everything is set up to be easy to use and great for entertaining or just relaxing. Find a space of your own to enjoy on one of three decks; each with a lake view: Barbecue and enjoy food and friends on the spacious main deck just outside the living room, with gas barbecue and two tables with seating. Or relax in the two-person hot tub on the deck outside the master bedroom. Our own favorite is the "sun deck" right at water's edge, a large new deck that is great for reading or getting a little sun. Northeast Washington State is a great locale in the summer. There are lots of outdoor activities and destinations like Silverwood Theme Park, Sandpoint Idaho, or the Nelson Loop (a great drive up to Nelson British Columbia).

Material: FINE HAIRCELL
Product Code: 12554001
Part of the ICON Collection
Safety Features:
|Anti Static
Discharges static buildup through the shoe to the floor and therefore reduces accumulation of excessive static buildup. Anti Static electrical resistance between 0.1 and 1000m.
|Safety Toe cap
Toe Cap offers protection from a minimum 200j impact and 15kn compression force.
|Shock Absorbing
Dr. Martens Air cushioned sole for additional shock and absorbing properties.
|Slip Resistant
Reduces the risk of slips and falls on hazardous surfaces.
Made In: China
This is a Goodyear-welted product using PVC for the welt. The upper and sole are sewn together, not merely glued, like many footwear constructions. This, together with our Z welt-stitch and heat-sealing process, makes it unique to Dr. Martens. This is the only construction that is stitched on the outside and helps footwear take the shape to the foot. The welt is chain stitched to the upper and insole. The outsole is then sewn to the welt around the edge and then heat sealed. This is the sturdiest and most complex of all constructions.
MaterialA corrected grain leather that has been embossed to give a leather grain effect.
SoleThis sole is hard-wearing, with good abrasion and slip resistance.
Care Instructions[Fine Haircell] = Clean Away dirt using a damp cloth, allow to dry apply correct coloured wax based shoe polish to restore shine as desired.

Halloween Scene
By: Jake Linville for AMACO
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Create and display a spooky Halloween scene made from PlasterForm, Diamond Mesh and Rub n Buff paints. The scary scene from AMACO can be inside or outside of your home.
- 1 Box of Marblex™
- 1 Mini Pack of WIREFORM® Diamond Mesh
- 1 Roll of PlasterForm®
- Rub n' Buff®:
- Ebony
- Antique White
- Spanish Copper
- Olive Gold
- Emerald
- Chinese Red
- Gold Leaf
- Pewter
- Craft Knife
- Glue
- Cardboard
- Scissors
- Small Round Paint Brush
- Cut WireForm® with scissors to about 31/2" x 8". Roll into a tube and fasten by making a folded seam (see diagram A).
- Cut one end of the tube from the bottom upward about 11/2" four or five times. Roll the flanges into "roots" and bend to desired shape (see diagram B).
- Cut the other end of the tube downward about 3" four or five times. Roll these flanges into "limbs" and bend into desired shape (see diagram C). Limbs can be made to fork by cutting from the end in two places and rolling into separate limbs.
- Roll another tube from a 31/4" x 6" piece of WireForm® and fasten with a folded seam as before.
- Cut from the top downward about 3" four or five times, and roll these flanges into "limbs." Insert uncut bottom of this tube into the top of the base tube and crimp the wire together (see diagram D).
- Secure with moist strips of PlasterForm®. Allow to dry until sturdy and then wrap entire tree with moist strips of PlasterForm® and let dry.
- Cut a hole in the trunk of the tree with scissors or a craft knife and roll the rough edges inward.
- Apply Rub n' Buff® (Spanish Copper) straight from the tube and spread with a paint brush to cover the entire tree. Let dry for 20 minutes.
- Press the Marblex™ on a flat section of cardboard and create a large kidney shaped base (see diagram E) about 3/4" thick.
- Press the roots of the tree into the base while the clay is still wet also filling the cavity of the tree with wet clay until it fills the tree to within 1/2" of the opening (make sure the clay is smooth and flat to create a seat for the owl).
- Sculpt the owl, cat and headstone from Marblex™. Press the cat and headstone to the base. Set the owl aside and let everything dry overnight. NOTE: The base may dry slower than the cat and headstone causing them to break free from the base – if so, just glue them back in place. If any cracks develop after drying, soften a small amount of Marblex™ and press into the crack and smooth with finger. Allow to dry completely before decorating.
- The cardboard will absorb moisture from the clay base. Replace the moist cardboard with a fresh dry piece to ensure complete dryness.
- Cover entire base with Olive Gold Rub n' Buff®. Decorate the cat with Ebony Rub n' Buff® and the owl with Pewter Rub n' Buff® and let dry.
- Accent the eyes and beak of the owl with Gold Leaf Rub n' Buff® and glue it to the base inside the tree. Accent the eyes of the cat with Gold Leaf Rub n' Buff® and mix Chinese Red and Antique White Rub n' Buff® to create a pink color for the nose and mouth. Use Emerald Rub n' Buff® to give the base an irregular grassy appearance.

CampStove Bundle
Portable Grill
NEW BaseCamp
NEW 10W KettleCharge
Press & Awards
Media Kit
September 03, 2014
The BioLite Kettle Charge was built for everyone to easily use. Its uses go beyond the campsite, giving many people who don't have reliable power or lights the ability to create power. Just fill the stainless steel container with water, find a heat source (camping stoves, gas ranges, BioLite Stove) and let it work its magic.
August 04, 2014
This intelligent kettle is designed for use on any range — making it useful both indoors and out — and can boil up to 750 ml of water at a time, while sending up to 10W of power to the USB port, meaning you can charge even your most power-hungry gadgets (we're looking at you, iPad) as fast as you can with a wall outlet.
June 02, 2014
BioLite makes cool stuff. The Basecamp is a sweet portable grill that builds on the earlier Biolite design successes and ramps them up. The power pack now puts out 5w and can store power, and they've added a "smart dash" so you can monitor the stove's heat and power output.
May 14, 2014
It really is a pretty smart—not to mention sustainable—alternative to the more common versions that run off propane. The stove itself has some pretty neat origins. Its original iteration, the wood-burning HomeStove, also doubled as a gadget charger—but for developing countries.
March 05, 2014
One of the smartest cooking accessories on the market, the BioLite stove debuted in 2012. Using twigs and brush, you can create an "eternal" charger for your phone or camera. The heat from the pot generates power with a thermoelectric generator, which in turn causes a fan to blow, generating even more heat. You connect your phone with a USB port. The new KettlePot holds about six cups of water and weighs just one pound.
February 24, 2014
BioLite is at it again with a new and bigger thermoelectric camp stove called the BaseCamp. The newly minted portable device allows users to cook, generate heat and charge cell phones simply by burning whatever twigs and sticks they put inside its burning maw. The stove top looks even more like a mini furnace complete with a side port to load in wood like a fireplace.
February 20, 2014
Since it hit the market with a gadget-charging portable stove a few years ago, BioLite has been slowly growing its line of outdoor cooking-charging gear. Its latest product, the BaseCamp, gives campers more power for cooking and charging gadgets. It can serve as both grill and stove, while storing enough power to charge tablet computers.
February 12, 2014
Most recently, DUMBO Improvement District unveiled the fruits of a long-term collaboration with Biolite...The company adapted its patented thermoelectric technology to create the DUMBO Firepit, a 500-pound, outdoor heater located in the Pearl St. Triangle, which offered warmth to passersby, while supplying the energy source needed to light DUMBO's holiday tree last December.
January 24, 2014
Last year Brooklyn-based BioLite introduced the HomeStove, a biomass cookstove that converts waste heat into electricity, with the goal of bringing the technology to households currently cooking over open fire in Indian and sub-Saharan Africa. BaseCamp is inspired by the HomeStove, but more luxurious.
January 23, 2014
We've been fans of the BioLite stove since it debuted, because it was a no-liquid-required backpacking stove with a bonus: It can recharge your gadgets. Lighting tinder in it generates electricity, which powers a fan that not only keeps the fire humming but also provides enough power to charge devices plugged into its USB port. The latest offering from BioLite does the same, but in a bigger package.
January 21, 2014
This group-size camp stove from BioLite burns sticks and logs. Its flames are channeled to warm a grill on top as well as to a module on the side that makes electricity from the heat. Plug in a tablet computer, phone, or other gadget in need of a recharge at your camp site.
December 10, 2013
The fire pit is a gargantuan version of the company's coffee-can-sized camp stoves, which can create enough thermoelectric power from burning pine cones and twigs to charge a 2.5-watt iPhone. "It's kind of fun to hack together something awesome," BioLite Co-Founder Jonathan Cedar said.
November 29, 2013
When I was first introduced to BioLite's technology a little more than a year ago at an outdoor goods showcase in lower Manhattan, I was equally enchanted and dismissive… Boy, did I miss the bigger picture.
November 22, 2013
This camping stove makes it easy to cook with a handful of twigs — and it charges your gadgets too. Newly added are the grill and kettle attachments. Every one you buy subsidizes R&D on a tougher, low-emission version of the stove for the developing world.
August 30, 2013
Just imagine how relaxing your Labor Day weekend will be when you can simultaneously boil water and charge your smartphone using only firewood.
June 19, 2013
But wait, use the stove to charge your cellphone? That's right — all you need is a bit of wood and your cellphone's charge cable, because this thing exists
May 19, 2013
But the company has bigger aims in mind than helping well-heeled backpackers go green. Its big project is the HomeStove, a larger stove meant for use in the developing world, and it is using sales of the CampStove to fuel development and testing of the HomeStove.
March 04, 2013
With not a hint of khaki or green, it's unashamedly brash and modern-looking... Thanks to the fan and clever ducting, it burns extremely well which, given its primary function, is essential. Plus, there's no need to carry gas canisters or foul-smelling fuel tablets.
November 12, 2012
GRAND AWARD WINNER- 2012 BEST OF WHAT'S NEW For better or for worse, electronics such as GPS devices, cellphones, and LED lights have become de rigueur in the backcountry. But keeping them charged isn't easy. Solar panels don't work well in heavily wooded areas, and spare batteries add weight to a pack. The coffee-can-size BioLite CampStove solves that problem—and cooks meals at the same time.
November 10, 2012
"You have this idea of, 'Let's just dump a bunch of stoves into a disaster situation, but for us there are logistics about how to do this safely and effectively," Rosen says. Do the people know how to properly use it? Can they teach others? Do they have a viable fuel source? "We're seeing parallels from this experience to the challenges of international development, where we must figure out how to set up proper distribution channels and education programs."
November 06, 2012
Company employees set up a table with the stoves in spots like Washington Square Park in Lower Manhattan, where many people were still without power. They offered hot drinks to people as they gathered around the stoves to charge their dead phones. The stoves got plenty of attention from passers-by, including the police, who ordered BioLite to stop.
October 01, 2012
The BioLite stove burns found fuel—twigs and small bits of wood—and uses the heat to create electricity to charge your electronic devices... there's another consideration: sales of the BioLite support the HomeStove, which uses 50 percent less wood and cuts smoke by 95 percent, huge issues in the developing world.
September 29, 2012
Remember rubbing two sticks together, or even trying to ignite a fire with a mirror? How about sending messages using smoke signals?
September 14, 2012
Cedar and Drummond are pioneering a fresh business model that seeks to benefit industrialized and developing countries at once. With $1.8 million in seed capital, the model is one that NGOs are eagerly watching.

Massive overspending of its overtime budget has forced the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office to rethink its operations, and jail visitation hours were first on the chopping block.
Visitation in all Maricopa County jails was reduced to 6 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. every day but Friday, when only lawyers will be allowed to visit.
Visiting hours formerly ran from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day but Friday.
The policy change is meant to help the office compensate for exceeding its budgeted overtime by $2 million in the first quarter, sheriff's spokeswoman Lisa Allen MacPherson said.
Trimming visitor hours should save the office $900,000 through the fiscal year ending June 30, she said.
Some families feared the cutback would be even more severe following a snafu in early November.
Detention officers posted signs Nov. 3 in the Fourth Avenue Jail lobby — along with a message on the jail's phone system — stating that visiting hours were being cut to Sundays only.
The signs were taken down soon after they went up. Sheriff's spokesman Capt. Paul Chagolla said certain departments took "as gospel" an e-mail meant to circulate ideas about how to reduce overtime spending, and they began to implement some of the proposed changes prematurely.
They were not authorized to do so, Chagolla said.
Also temporarily affected was transportation of defendants to their court hearings. As many as 46 defendants involved in 61 criminal cases missed their scheduled court appearances on Nov. 5.
A team of deputies in charge of moving inmates was not on duty because they were mistakenly told they would not be working their overtime shifts.
Chagolla said there have been no problems transporting inmates to their court proceedings since then.
In other cost-cutting measures, the sheriff also shut down three buildings used by local police to book inmates into county jails, including one in Mesa.
MacPherson said certain aspects of the new visitation hours are an improvement.
"Fridays are just legal visits, which is great for the attorneys, because then they don't have to compete with all the families and friends and loved ones that want to visit before 2 p.m.," she said. "And the family doesn't have to compete with them either."
Also, the limit of visits per person has not changed, MacPherson said. Visitors will still be allowed to see a particular inmate three times per week for 30 minutes each.
MacPherson said she's not worried about getting expenditures back in line with the budget.
"We'll be fine," she said.
"We have nine months to figure this out."
She blamed the economy for this year's tight budget.
"In the past, the county has been in a better position than it is this year," she said.
Sheriff's officials could not say what their total annual overtime budget was when asked Friday.
The new overtime restrictions will affect 1,900 detention officers and 216 sergeants, who are eligible for overtime.
Employees ranked lieutenant and higher receive salaries only, with no overtime pay.
