Speaking of Halloween Costumes, your friends here at BWE contributed our own idea to AOL's annual list of Celebrity Halloween Costumes. And who else would we have suggested other than He who makes our lives Hoffish week in and week out here on this little blog of ours? It's never too early to start planning your get-up for the big night, which is now only about 3 weeks away. Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein and the rest of The Monster Squad have been done a bajillion times (except for Scary German Guy, who's always an excellent choice), so it might be time to think about dressing as something truly scary, like the Olsen Twins. So check out AOL's site for our Hoffoween Hoffstume and some other truly monstrous suggestions.
More Like Hallo-Teen… Pregnancy
Halloween is one of the most joyous times of the year for Pagans: It's the one day slutty older women show their true colors, the one day plushophiles can fulfill their fetish outdoors, and a day when morbidly obese children can eat candy in the open rather than binge eat in hiding as per yoozh. In addition, the littlest ones can dress up as their favorite cartoon character, neighborhood hobo, ghost, or something else equally innocent…
OR SO WE THOUGHT. Apparently, dressing up like a slutty old lady has now infected even the tiniest of girls. Because now, young "ladies" can dress up like an American Idol contestant, replete with tacky tops, fishnet sleeves, flared pants and platform sandals marked with the American Idol insignia.* And the best news? Now your toddler can look like the littlest failure in the country! But don't fret, fellas, Clay Aiken is available also. Our one real problem is that nobody seems to offer a Bo Bice costume… oh, no, wait… never mind.

ICYMI: Colbert Makes Nice With The Mentally Il
Maybe we're doing this wrong. Maybe we should forget about sanctions and inspections and stop attacking North Korea for testing a nuclear bomb. Instead, perhaps we should follow Stephen Colbert's lead and give Kim Jong Il what he wants: booze, DVD's, and a feature film deal. Makes sense to me.
Stewart & Colbert in '08. Whether they like it or not.
PROPPED: Who Went Under The Knife?
I'm loving these AOL quizzes. In this latest quiz, dropped by SethW, you not only have to figure out which celebrity had some work done, but also what they said about their plastic surgery. It gets tricky. I scored a sad 7/10… I'm sure you can do better. Post your scores in the comments. Good luck!

SIZZLER: Bizarro Trump Hates Angelina, Lauds K-Fed!
Last night's Larry King Live featured an unusual side of Donald Trump, a side where the real estate mogul wasn't afraid to opine on the likes of Angelina Jolie, K-Fed, Paris Hilton, the good looks of one Mr. Larry King, and some Mark Foley for good measure. We've clipped the best moments from the interview below, but if your stomach can stand it, you can read the entire thing here. A rundown: Trump loathes Jolie (including her looks — video footage here), loves K-Fed (who doesn't?), and finds Paris Hilton "extremely attractive", even though we've been told by many sources that homegirl is fully bald. In other words, wethinks ol' Trumpy has finally effing lost it.
LARRY KING:. You recently applauded Brad Pitt's stance on not marrying Angelina Jolie. I believe you said that you consider everyone — when he said everyone should be married but don't bug him, why?
DONALD TRUMP: Well, look, number one, I know her father. Her father is a nice guy. I think she treats him like a dog but maybe they have some kind of a thing… I mean this poor sap he comes along and he practically begs her, "I want to see my grandson. I want to see this." I mean if I were with him, I'd say "Forget it. It's over."… I think he's a great actor and she just treats him terribly. She's been with so many guys she makes me look like a baby, OK, with the other side. (Ed. Note: Savor that image, please.) And, I just don't even find her attractive. That has nothing to do with why I said it though.
LISTEN UP: Smooth & Sensitive
- Fluxblog has The Walkmen's smooth cover of Harry Nilsson's "Don't Forget Me".
- MOKB has an entire live set from sensitive singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur.
- The kids at Scenestars have a tune from The Stills' first record since 2003′s minor masterpiece Logic Will Break Your Heart. Logic will also dictate your going and grabbing the song.
- Aquarium Drunkard is cleansing a few Thetans by posting a few rare tracks from everyone's favorite hipster Scientologist – Beck!
- I've been hearing good things about the latest album by The Decembrists, mostly from bespectacled bookish types that work in record stores, but good things all the same. Head over to The Yellow Stereo and tell me whether the indie nerds are right.
True Life: I Want A Hot Dog, Bitch
Forget about North Korea, Mark Foley and everything else going on in the world. This is the news story of the day:
A Gainesville College student who told police he is an MTV reality show star was arrested and charged with battery for hitting two University students downtown, police said.
University students Katherine Leigh Walden and Sara Elizabeth Holbert flagged down an Athens-Clarke County Police officer at about 1:55 a.m. Saturday and told the officer that the man, Joshua Taylor Hill, asked them to purchase a hot dog for him while outside 195 College Ave., the police report said.
"We said 'No, we don't have any money. Buy your own hot dog,'†Holbert said in a phone interview Sunday.
She said Hill repeatedly said, "Buy me a hot dog, bitch.â€
I'm not sure what the best part of this story is; the fact that the guy identified himself to police as an MTV reality show star, or the line "Buy me a hot dog, bitch." Actually, wait, I take that back. I do know– it's the "Buy me a hot dog, bitch" line. Definitely.

GREAT TV OF THE FUTURE: The Singing Office
Everybody loves The Office, but you know what could make it even better? Getting rid of its talented cast, replacing them with real-life fame-seeking office workers from around the country with no performing background to speak of, then having Alan "Double Scotch on the Rocks" Thicke lead them in song! Yes, The Singing Office, the latest nugget of genius to come out of the reality show idea hopper, is going to be a watershed moment in amazing television. Maybe they'll even come to YOUR office so you too can celebrate your mundane, painfully repetitive wage-slavery through the joy of song!
"Ohhh, what a beautiful spreadsheet, oh what a beautiful fax, I've got a beautiful cubicle where I do task after boring-ass task!"

PROPPED: Free Jude Kinnear!
The third installment of Project Runway is spiralling to a finish, with a winner being announced next week. But some of the season's controversies have still not died down, primarily the one involving Keith Michael (long-awaited lovechild of Jude Law and Greg Kinnear). Early in the season, Keith was disqualified for bringing pattern-making books with him, something PR producers claimed was expressly forbidden in the official rules.
In last week's reunion show, Keith came to his own rescue (because, apparently, no one else was going to), accusing PR producers of framing him and planting the books under his bed. Ah-likely ah-story. And thanks to reader roxdy who dropped yet more Jude Kinnear insanity! In an open letter to the Blogging Project Runway blog, JK actually does do a good job of defending himself, first by defining exactly what kind of books he had — not patterns themselves, rather explanations for how to measure things… which still sounds fishy. He goes on to walk us through the casting process, where producers thoroughly searched each contestant, removing any and all items considered banned. JK insists he was used as a pawn in the chess game known as Great Television. And frankly, after reading his letter… we kind of… agree with him. And you?
ps His real last name earns him some serious street cred.
RANT: Say Your Prayers, Eat Your Vitamins, Dress Your 18 Year-Old Daughter Up Like a Total Whore
According to our channel, Hogan Knows Best, but these photoshopped-to-death shots of his bareley legal daughter Brooke on the cover of FHM (a magazine for men whose wives and girlfriends won't let them read Playboy) are pretty f*cking creepy. I mean, they might as well have rubbed sparkly butter all over her, slapped on a couple of pasties and stuck her under a big neon sign that said, "Slutty cheerleader looking for someone to be her daddy". I mean, it's pretty easy to rail on pedophiles (political ones and otherwise) these days, but you have to at least acknowledge the fact that our culture regularly turns its children into sex objects. I wonder what the Hulkster would do if he could see the things aging readers probably imagine doing to his baby daughter while rifling through the pages of this particular meathead mag? Of course, maybe they just read it for the articles (this nine page advertorial on bathroom products sounds like a real page-turner!)

Brooklyn, one building at a time.
Name: Semi-detached row house
Address: 199 17th Street
Cross Streets: 4th and 5th Avenues
Neighborhood: South Slope
Year Built: Before 1880
Architectural Style: Simplified Italianate
Architect: Unknown
Landmarked: No
The story: When Brooklyn developed, it wasn't always in solid waves, with housing spreading out like Lego blocks across the map. Some areas were farms that were slowly subdivided into lots. Some neighborhoods grew as towns, like Bedford; a crossroads that slowly grew to be much more down the road. Other towns grew totally off the standard rectangular street grid, like Weeksville.The streets that make up the South Slope had an interesting path to development. Houses here were built in fits and starts. Some of the land was farmland, although not particularly good farmland, it was hilly and rocky, the legacy of glacial activity.
The street grid was established well before the Civil War, but insurance maps don't show a whole lot going on here until after the war. Some parts of the neighborhood had a reputation as a dumping ground, where one could conveniently get rid of all kinds of things, including an occasional body. For many years these blocks were just scruffy fields. Then as Green-Wood Cemetery grew in size and popularity as a tourist destination, and Park Slope began to flourish, this area began to be developed, as well. (more…)

Furious at the recent incident of India`s Sikh basketball players being asked to remove turbans at the Asia Cup in China, former cricket captain Bishan Singh Bedi today said the cagers should have walked out of the match instead of complying with the diktat.
After two `Sikh` players from the Indian basketball team were asked to play without their turbans during the recently concluded Asia Cup in China, the Minister of Skill Development, Entrepreneurship, Youth Affairs and Sports Shri Sarbananda Sonowal has issued a statement expressing shock and has sought a detailed report from the Basketball Federation of India (BFI).
Two Indian `Sikh` players were forced to remove turbans during the fifth edition of Fédération Internationale de Basketball (FIBA) Asia Cup, in China.

Sri Lanka were left searching for their seventh coach in four years after Paul Farbrace resigned on Tuesday to take up a possible assignment with England, Sri Lanka Cricket said.
In a surprisingly hurried move, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has entrusted on former captain Moin Khan the dual responsibilities of holding the post of chief selector as well as managing the national team.
Hockey India (HI) Monday appointed Harendra Singh as the coach of the junior men`s team keeping in mind the 2016 Junior World Cup to be held in India.

Will my older cat prefer one new kitty or two?
I have an older cat and we lost his brother a few months ago. I and am considering getting either one or two new cats. I've been hanging out at the humane society looking at cats who are friendly/loving towards other cats. Assuming I even get any new cats at all (I'm still debating), I'm torn about whether to get one new one or two.
One argument is that getting one new cat could give him a new friend while he is lonely. Another argument is that I should get two new cats (like 2 siblings) who will hang out with each other and won't bother him (on the other hand, groups of three never work for friendships and I would hate him to feel like the odd man out).
For anyone who has gone through this, what do you recommend? Which method (one new kitty or two) has worked out better for you?
Thank in advance for your advice.
I have an older cat and we lost his brother a few months ago. I and am considering getting either one or two new cats.
If I do this, what is the best method to introduce new cat(s) into the house? We have had a number of guest dogs and guest cats visit for weekends during my cat's life and we have usually just brought them into the house and let them meet my kitty right away and soon afterwards they have coexisted peacefully.
I don't know if I should try a new method for bringing in any new kitties? I have heard things like put the new cat(s) in a seperate room and let them smell each other. I have heard things like exchange smelly blankets during this process that smell like each other so they can get used to each other's smells. I'd appreciate any tricks of the trade you recommend!
I used to always have 3 cats ... they all had their different bonds with each other. Now I have four, and I think my oldest is the odd man out ... the other three are very close.
I always separate a new cat in a guest bedroom and use a screen door in place of the normal door so the cats can see and smell each other through the screen and get use to each other without a big confrontation. It works for me.
I think the introduction really depends on your cat. Tanker and Pippen don't need a screen door, they love other cats that will accept them. Senna would like a door though. Roswell and TwoFace would prefer a gun and thumbs.
I would go with two more, but mostly because there are a lot of homeless cats out there, and if you're willing to take two, you should. I would go with one older cat (2+) and one kitten though, rather than two that are the same age to keep your old man from getting shut out.

HELP! Orienpets broken off from bulbs
So I ask the not-so DH to please dig up my orienpets as I wanted to transplant them. They are several years old and were 4-5ft tall. I asked him to do it assuming he would dig deep and get to the bulbs. I came home and found the shoots lined up on the driveway. Some had the bulbs intact, some did not.
He didn't get the bulbs to some of them, I assume the bulbs are still buried deep in the ground. That's okay I guess as I am assuming they will come back next year.
My question is for the shoots. They all have big root systems ABOVE where the bulbs were. Can I plant these and will they eventually MAKE new bulbs? Or are they lost causes?
I am so mad at him! We're talking over a dozen!
It's a little early for digging them but the bulbs should be fine. The roots above the bulbs are stem roots and help to stabilize the stem in the ground. You can still dig down and get the bulbs, I assume you wanted to move them or divide them? Planting the stems will not form new bulbs but your husband didn't do any damage.

Policy Priorities
California has the highest child poverty rate in the nation. More than 1 in 4 California children are poor. The burden of poverty falls disproportionately on children of color, with 1 in 3 Black and Latino children in California living in poverty. Growing up poor has lifetime negative consequences, decreasing the likelihood of graduating from high school and increasing the likelihood of becoming a poor adult, suffering from poor health, and becoming involved in the criminal justice system.
California can – and must – end child poverty. We must invest in policies and programs that increase employment and make work pay for parents and caregivers and expand the social safety net to ensure children's basic needs are met. We must also implement policies that break the cycle of poverty by ensuring children and families have access to affordable health care, quality early learning, high-performing schools, and families and neighborhoods free from violence.
New CDF Report: Ending Child Poverty Now
On January 28, 2015, the Children's Defense Fund released a groundbreaking report entitled Ending Child Poverty Now that details how the U.S. could substantially reduce child poverty immediately. If policymakers invested an additional 2 percent of the federal budget to expand existing federal programs and policies to increase employment, make work pay, and ensure children's basic needs are met, 60 percent of poor children across the country – and 58 percent of California's children – would be lifted out of poverty and 97 percent of all poor children would benefit.
A companion report by the Children's Defense Fund - California presents key state policy recommendations for how California can reduce child poverty: including enacting a refundable state Earned Income Tax Credit, raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour, and expanding child care subsidies.
California Policy Recommendations
California has the opportunity to substantially reduce the state's high child poverty rate by investing in policies and programs that increase employment, make work pay, and expand safety net supports to ensure children's basic needs are met. This investment would eventually pay for itself since protecting children against the lifelong consequences of poverty would improve their lifetime earnings and outcomes and reduce poverty in future generations.
Children's Defense Fund-California recommends the following state policy changes to reduce child poverty:

Just don't put them in the dishwasher! The graphics will get wiped out almost immediately, like they did on my last DFH glass that the SWMBO chucked in the dishwasher.
Ordered one now, will probably pick a few more when I (hopefully) go to the Brewery this summer.
I think I might order one from Sierra Nevada, since the shipping is a little cheaper. Actually, I wonder if Bevmo will start stocking them, since they carry SN glassware.
Just ordered a few.
These are quite interesting but I personally like the look and effect of my Samuel Adams glasses more. I may get one of these just to try it out though.
I'm holding out for V2.0 with the vortex grip
Got mine, just poured a victory hop wallop. Am currently waiting for the head to settle out a bit but I was very happy with my pour
I'm sorry, it looks like a sex toy to me
Just picked up a pair from Sierra Nevada. Will be washing off the logo just because I don't want any confusion when drinking my homebrew. Appearance can mean a lot, and someone seeing SNBC might think differently about my beer. I thought about ordering 100 at Dogfish since the shipping never changed and stayed at 9 bucks, but I don't want to be a total douche.

glass vessel bathroom sink /swimming koi
allsixcatsMarch 3, 2012
there was a posting about one of these sinks literally exploding. Yes it has happened to us also. not in use no water running mother walked in to brush teeth and sink exploded.
I have never actually seen a glass vessel explode. It would need some very high temperatures to do that. Tempered glass sinks are pretty reliable, but if you dont use a mounting ring between the sink and the countertop and put too much pressure on it, it can definitely give the appearance of exploding as the tempered glass shatters.

Dining on the patio or relaxing in your backyard is a great way to spend a warm summer day. Having the hot sun beat down on you for hours on end? Not so much. Like sunscreen and an ice cold drink, outdoor shelter and shade is essential for surviving the sun. Our collection of outdoor shades, sheer panels and curtains will put a barrier between you and the sun, while still allowing the fresh air to flow through. Our colorful umbrellas offer superb outdoor shelter and shade whether you're sitting at a table or reclining in your favorite chaise. Window awnings block glare and help to keep your interior cool. Pergolas add an architectural element to your landscape while providing outdoor shelter and shade.
Olla (Spanish, pronounced "oh-ya") jars have been around since ancient times. Made of unglazed ceramic, ollas traditionally have short, narrow necks with wider bodies, and are made in a variety of shapes. They have been used for thousands of years for cooking, storage, and plant irrigation.
When used to irrigate plants, an olla is buried neck-deep in the ground near a plant's roots, with the opening of the olla extended above the soil so that it can be filled with water periodically. The porous walls of the unglazed pottery allow the water to seep through gradually, constantly and consistently hydrating the plants without overwatering them – and without wasting precious water to evaporation or runoff.
The use of ollas for irrigation was introduced to the American Southwest by Spanish conquistadors during Colonial times, becoming very common among Native American tribes and Hispanic settlers. Though the technique gave way to more modern methods of irrigation some time ago, its superior efficiency, coupled with its simplicity, has caused it to make a comeback. Though the technique has changed little since its introduction, today's ollas are usually capped off, making them even more water-efficient.
Perfect for home gardens, Ollas are a super-easy, eco-friendly, less time-consuming way to water annuals, perennials, herbs, vegetables and plants of all kinds in dry, sandy soil, very hot or drought-prone areas, raised beds, and even pots, planters and hanging baskets. Fill the olla before you leave on a short vacation to enjoy worry-free watering – and a smaller water bill!
Water is pulled directly through the terra-cotta!

Off-the-shelf options may rule the roost when it comes to mobile enterprise applications used by businesses and their employees. But there's a productive hen with the ability to lay golden eggs that's gaining greater prominence in this market: custom mobile apps that are fully or partially personalized, tailor-made, and paid for by a company to meet its particular business or mission needs.

Imagine attending a conference or trade show while still getting to enjoy dinner with your family and without dealing with the headache of airport delays. Thanks to the emergence of virtual events, you can attend sessions, meet vendors, and mingle with attendees—all without leaving the comfort of your desk chair.
For proponents of virtual events, a perfect storm has created an opportunity: The struggling economy that has forced many companies to reduce their travel budgets and an increased focus on being "green"—with a desire to reduce overall travel as an environmentally friendly thing to do—have converged to make virtual shows a realistic endeavor for the conference business.
Laura Ramos, vice president at Forrester Research, points out that marketers spend nearly a third of their marketing budget on trade shows. "They're looking at ways to reduce that expense; and ways to make that money more effective will be top of mind," says Ramos.
In addition to the financial and environmental factors that are leading more and more companies to try virtual trade shows, the advent of online social networking is also helping to increase acceptance of the medium. "We wouldn't be talking about virtual trade shows if social computing wasn't on the rise," adds Ramos.

Comments Thread For: Klitschko Confession: Thompson Was Not My First Choice
The Klitschko brothers have worked hard to get their hands on nearly every major title in the heavyweight division. Wladimir in particular owns a considerable amount of hardware these days, while also serving as the recognized lineal champion.
Given his position, it should be easy for the younger Klitschko to pick and choose his opponents, belts be damned. Thats in theory, anyway. The truth is that the pickings remain slim in todays heavyweight division. The longer that the Klitschkos remain at the top, the sooner they will run out fresh challenges.

With most of the division not ready or willing to fight Wlad, for whatever reason, and then the "other" champion of the division Povetkin looking for soft touch paydays, what else is there to do but fight recycled cans he's already beaten? Hold an open fight invitation for the anyone in a 19,000 arena who think they can beat him to enter the ring?

Not much Wlad can do to be honest.
The likes of Fury & Price have said they're not ready. Wlad's in a dammed if he does and dammed if doesn't sort of situation.
If he fights Fury/Price & wins, they were easy targets & they weren't experienced enough. Meaning he's left to rematch dudes he's already beat.

Nobody wants to fight him? A Haye rematch would be better than the voluntary defences against fighters like Mormeck that Wlad chooses. Haye still is the best fighter in the HW division not called Klitschko.

If he beats Chisora and maybe another name guy, I think Wlad might give him a rematch. The best move for Haye, should he win against Chisora, would be to throw a boatload of money at Povetkin to get him in the ring and take his title.

I'm guessing by next year their is going to be negotiations for a Seth Mitchell fight even though he said he wasn't ready yet for the Klitschkos.

help some kind of bee is eating my car port.
cb-garden(6b heatzone 7 Perry county tn)May 29, 2013
I have no clue about bees... what kind of bee eats wood and how do i get rid of them before they destroy the wood in my carport?
Carpenter bee? Looks like a giant bumblebee but has a shiny butt. Bumblebees have a fuzzy one. Paint is a deterrent.

What size restoration hardware pulls?
I have 3 30" drawer stacks and one 36" drawer stack slab fronts. I am looking at the restoration hardware Adeline pull.
Restoration sizes come in 3", 4", 6", and 8". What size pulls would you use for the drawers?
30" drawer = One 8" pull (rule of thirds ideally be 10" )
OR Two 4" or 6" pull? (ideally would be 5")
36" drawer= Two 6" pulls?
I am also interested in the Adeline knobs for upper cabinets which are rectangular. Are there any issues you can see with this or another knob that might coordinate?
Or if you have a totally different idea I am open.
Thanks for your thoughts!
that is a very pretty pull. I just ordered my pulls last week so I'll tell you how I did it. My 30" (or close to it) drawers got 7 1/8" pulls (6" centers). The next size up that pull came in was 12" centers and those were 99 dollars/each. Not happening. I think I may have liked one a bit bigger but it will be fine. In your case since the 8" is available go with that for your 30" drawers. Just wondering though, what is your drawer style? Does it have rails/stiles? Apparently the rule of thirds applies to the panel part of the drawer front only (not including the stile on each end). FWIW.
For the few drawers I had that were under 20" wide I went with the 5" center pulls. I did order the 12" centers for my garbage and recycle pullouts because I like a nice big pull for that even though those were only 20" wide. Nice to hang a towel on too.
I think rectangular knobs are fine if they have a little pin on them to keep them from spinning on the cabinet. I ordered some rectangular shaped knobs for my master bath and they had the little pin to prevent the spinning. So just look for that.
Regarding your 36 drawers, some believe that 2 handles on a single drawer aren't functional and may impact the use of the drawer. I don't have drawers that wide, but it may be something to consider. Realistically, if you won't consistently open the drawers using both pulls, you'll want to consider the regular strain of using just 1 pull on a 2-pull drawer.
You can do whatever you like, personal preference. I like things uniform & symmetrical so I did the same size pulls throughout (Full disclosure, I did 3 different knobs). Mine are 4" CC and 5 1/8 overall width. On my 30" & 36" drawers, I did 2 pulls. Everything else, one pull. These are 36" drawers.
We have Aubrey pulls and used a single 6" pull on all our 30" and 36" drawers. We only used 8" pulls for our pantry & closet door handles. We didn't want to use 2 pulls on any drawer and liked having a single centered pull.
Our drawers will be slab so there are no stiles - so I guess the rule would be to take the full 30" and 36" into account.
I would likley only use one handle (bad habit) that is why I was thinking of only doing one. But I didn't want a single 8" to look lost on a 36" drawer. I should order samples of course.
Thanks for sharing your photos romy!
Do you have a pic of your drawers illinigirl and/or calumin? I was looking at the Aubrey pulls too.
I don't have pics yet. The drawer fronts aren't on. I did realize that the drawers under my range top are closer to 38" wide and I'm still using the 7 1/4" overall length pull. I'm not personally worried it will be too small but it's personal preference about how long you want it to look. I forgot to mention I'm staying with single pulls on all drawers.

This is an extremely full-bodied, powerful wine, but it still retains a classy balance. Deep ruby, with chocolate and berry aromas, full-bodied, with anise and dried cherry flavors, full, hard tannins and a long finish.
(1/ 1989)
Graham is another great port house, producing one of the deepest-colored and sweetest styles of vintage port. Along with Taylor and Fonseca, Graham has probably been the most consistent producer of great port in the post- World War II era. Their tawnys are quite good rather than exceptional, but their vintage ports are truly sublime and sumptuous. The 1970 is a monumental vintage port and one of the greats of the vintage. (RP)

3.9° Baumé. From a magnificent magnum. Pale crimson. Sweet and round. Easy and round with rose-petal notes and quite firm tannins. Very appetising but not that sweet. Dusty finish but good stuff. Slightly drying out now though. (18/20 points)

Stayed here one night. The lobby is quite beautiful and the rooms look like they have been refurbished in the recent past. We had good service. They offer a buffet breakfast that looked good, but we chose to eat at a little place called La Tetera that was half of the Courtyards cost. My wife had a large bowl of very nice fruit, granola and yogurt and I had a ham and cheese omelette. Both were good and were each priced at less than $6.
La Tetera and several other restaurants are located within the same Itkatzu Plaza as the Courtyard. Its a one or two minute walk to Argentine, Mexican, Italian, Hooters, Outback, gelato, pizza and a few others. Very nice area

A pallet magazine for transporting workpieces from a loading station to an unloading station, and possibly past a working station, has two parallel, endless conveyor chain loops supported on and driven by spaced pairs of sprocket wheels having horizontal axes. A plurality of pallets for carrying the workpieces are adapted to rest slidably on the upper sections of the chains and to hang freely from the lower sections of the chains. A further sprocket wheel is provided between the sprocket wheels of each said pair thereof, and a rack adapted to engage the further sprocket wheels is provided on the underside of each pallet. Each pallet has lateral guide rollers with horizontal axes which engage semicircular guide members provided adjacent the sprocket wheels. A guide rail extends between the further sprocket wheels and is received between spaced guide projections provided on the pallet racks.
1. In a pallet magazine for transporting workpieces from a loading station to a working station and to an unloading station, said pallet magazine having a frame and two endless rotating chains arranged parallel to one another and which undergo a 180� turn at said loading station and at said unloading station by being guided around sprocket wheels having horizontal axles supported on said frame, a sprocket wheel located at one of said loading station and said unloading station being driven for rotation by a motor, said pallet magazine further including plural pallets, which carry said workpieces thereon, having first means at least partially gripping around said two chains, the improvement comprising wherein said first means is spaced freely below an upper conveyor reach of said chains and hanging freely on a lower conveyor reach of said chains so that a frictional force alone effects a carrying of said pallet with said upper and lower conveyor reaches, and wherein at each 180� turn of said chains, there is arranged a gear oriented coaxially with said sprocket wheels, between said sprocket wheels and rotated at the same speed as said sprocket wheels, which gear engages second means arranged on the underside of each said pallet to effect a controlled driving movement of said pallet from a location on said upper conveyor reach to a location on said lower conveyor reach and vice versa.
2. The pallet magazine according to claim 1, wherein said pallets are each provided with lateral guide rollers, through which they are guided at said 180� turn locations by substantially semicircular guide members provided on said frame.
3. The pallet magazine according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said gears are designed as roller-chain sprocket wheels and said second means formed on the undersides of each said pallet are rigidly mounted roller-chain sections.
4. The pallet magazine according to claim 3, wherein the first and last roller of each said roller-chain section has a smaller diameter than the rollers which lie therebetween and than the tooth fillet curves of said roller-chain sprocket wheels.
5. The pallet magazine according to claim 3, wherein the first and last roller of each roller-chain section is omitted.
6. The pallet magazine according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said roller-chain sections include guide projections and wherein a guide rail which lies in the plane of said gears and between same, is connected fixedly to said frame and is disposed between said guide projections of said roller-chain sections.
7. The pallet magazine according to claim 1, wherein said gears are connected by means of a slip clutch to said shaft which support the associated and coaxial said sprocket wheels so that if resistance to movement of said pallets occurs, said endless chains will continue to slide relative to the stopped pallets and said slip clutches will operate to stop the movement of said pallet at said 180� turns, said slip clutches effecting a transfer of said pallets between said reaches of said endless chain when there is no resistance to movement of said pallets.
The invention relates to a pallet magazine for transporting workpieces and, more particularly, to such a magazine having two endlessly rotating chains supported on spaced sprockets which rotate about horizontal axes and having pallets which carry the workpieces and are adapted to rest on the upper reaches of the chains and hang from the lower reaches of the chains.
A pallet magazine of the foregoing type represents the state of the art of pallet magazines. The pallets which rest freely on the upper reach of the endless chains slide, at one of the turning points (or 180� turns) defined by the sprocket wheels around which the chains are looped, completely uncontrolled into a position rotated 180� and then hang from the lower reach of the chains. When the pallets arrive at the other turning point (or 180� turn ), they are supported by the parts which grip around the chains and are rotated again 180� around the sprocket wheels into their original position, so that they now rest freely again on the upper chain reach. During sliding from the resting to the hanging position and also during the transition from the hanging to the resting position, difficulties occur again and again. It frequently happens that a pallet assumes an inclined orientation and then jams, or that the support on the chain members which engage the sprocket wheels does not come off. These breakdowns can be caused by slight damage to the pallets or by adhering chips.
Therefore, the basic purpose of this invention is to provide a pallet magazine in which the rotation of the pallets at the turning points occurs forcibly and under control and thus is functionally safe.
This purpose is attained inventively by arranging at each turning point (or 180� turn) a gear or the like between and coaxial with the sprocket wheels and rotating at the same speed, which gear engages a short rack or the like which is arranged on the underside of each pallet. In order to assure good engagement between the racks and gears, the pallets are preferably provided with lateral guide rollers, through which they are guided at the turning points by substantially semicircular guide members.
A very inexpensive design of the gears and of the racks is obtained when the gears are roller-chain sprocket wheels and the racks are roller-chain sections which are rigidly mounted on the undersides of the pallets. A problemless feed of the roller-chain sections onto the roller-chain gears is achieved when the first and last roller of each roller-chain section has a smaller diameter than the rollers lying therebetween and than the tooth fillet curves of the roller-chain gears, or alternatively when the first and last roller of each roller-chain section is removed and only the support bolts therefor remain in the roller-chain sections.
To increase the operating safety, it is possible to arrange a guide rail in the plane of the roller-chain gears and between same, which guide rail is received between guide projections on the roller-chain sections and is connected fixedly to the magazine frame. With this, the pallets receive a guide resisting movement transversely to the direction of feed, by which in particular an inclined orientation of the pallets is prevented and no further guideways are necessary in the area where the roller-chain sections are fed onto the roller-chain gears.
The roller-chain gears can be connected by means of a slip clutch to the shaft which carries the sprocket wheels. With this, in the case of a breakdown in operation, damage to the pallet magazine is prevented and the accident risk is reduced, for example, if an operator during loading or unloading touches a pallet which is just running over a turning point, since such pallet is then not moved on.
Pallet magazines of the above-mentioned type are typically equipped with mechanisms for stopping and/or releasing and for storing and/or separating of the loaded and the empty pallets. These mechanisms are conventional and not a part of the invention, and are therefore not discussed in detail herein.
The invention will be described hereinafter in connection with one exemplary embodiment which is illustrated in the FIGS. 1 to 4.
In the drawings:
FIGS. 1a and 1b taken together are a side view, partially in section, of a pallet magazine embodying the present invention which is associated with a tool machine;
FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a turning point taken along the line II--II of FIG. 1a;
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of another turning point taken along the line III--III of FIG. 1b; and
FIG. 4 is a perspective view, partly broken away, of a pallet which is a component of the pallet magazine of FIGS. 1a and 1b.
Referring to FIGS. 1a and 1b, a frame 3 for a pallet magazine 4 is secured, for example by screws, on a column 2 of a machine 1 which, in the illustrated embodiment, is a gear-deburring machine. The frame 3 is built of suitable profile parts 5 and 5' and supports the pallet magazine 4 which includes a longitudinal carrier 8 composed of a hollow profile 6 (FIG. 3) and two spaced, flat profiles 7 and 7' (FIGS. 1a and 3). Sprocket wheels 9 and 9' (FIG. 2) and 10 and 10' (FIG. 3) are rotatably supported at the ends of the carrier 8 in a manner described in more detail hereinafter, around which sprocket wheels run two parallel, endless conveyor chains 11 and 11' designated by dash-dotted lines in FIGS. 1a and 1b. The conveyor chains 11 and 11' each turn 180� at the sprocket wheels 9 and 9' and at the sprocket wheels 10 and 10', so that between the respective turning points 12 and 13 there exists an upper conveyor reach 14 defined by portions of the chains 11 and 11' and a lower conveyor reach 15 defined by portions of the chains. The chains 11 and 11' engage and are guided between the respective sprocket wheels 9, 9', 10 and 10' by the top and bottom edges of the flat profiles 7 and 7', as illustrated in FIG. 3.
A plurality of pallets 20 rest freely on the upper conveyor reach 14 and are carried along with the continuously rotating chains 11 and 11' through the friction generated by their own weights. They are each loaded, by hand or by a mechanical device, with a workpiece 21 at a loading station 16. A conventional separating mechanism 17 synchronized with the control of the tool machine 1 ensures that, at any given time, only one pallet 20' is presented to the working station 22, at which working station the workpiece 21 is chucked, machined and then released. The pallet then moves to an unloading station 18 where it is stopped by a conventional blocking mechanism 19 until the machined workpiece 21' is removed manually or by a mechanical mechanism.
While the pallets 20 are stopped at the loading station 16, the working station 22 and the unloading station 18, the conveyor chains 11 and 11' slide beneath the pallets 20. After the blocking mechanism 19 releases a pallet 20, it moves to the first turning point 12 where it is turned 180� and it thereafter hangs on the lower conveyor reach 15 in a manner described hereinafter. The now-hanging pallet 20 is moved by the lower conveyor reach 15 to a storage place 23, from which pallets are fed around the second turning point 13 in a manner described hereinafter to the loading station 16 as space becomes available on the upper conveyor reach 14. The cycle just described then repeats. It is possible to provide the pallet magazine 4, as protection against accidents, laterally, from below, and also at the turning points 12 and 13 with covers 24.
FIG. 2 illustrates the turning point 12 in greater detail. Two arms 30 and 30' which are secured to and extend horizontally away from the longitudinal carrier 8 support ball bearings 31 and 31' in which a shaft 32 is supported rotatably, the shaft 32 being rotationally driven by a motor 29 which is secured on the arm 30'. The two sprocket wheels 9 and 9' are mounted on the shaft 32 so as to be fixed against rotation with respect thereto and spaced from one another. The sprocket wheels 9 and 9' respectively engage the two conveyor chains 11 and 11', which have a plurality of bent support clips 33 and 33' and driving pins 34 and 34' provided at spaced intervals therealong. A third sprocket wheel or gear 35 is provided on the shaft 32 between the sprocket wheels 9 and 9', is rotatable with respect to the shaft 32 and is pressed between two friction disks 36 and 36' disposed between a Belleville spring 37, supported by an adjusting nut 38 threadedly engaging the shaft 32 and a collar 39 provided on the shaft 32. Due to this slip clutch, the sprocket wheel 35 normally rotates with the shaft 32 but can slip with respect thereto when a resistance is encountered without influencing the conveyor drive, and can again rotate with the shaft 32 when the resistance ceases.
The pallets 20 rest with their undersides 25 on the support clips 33 and 33' of the upper conveyor reach 14. Intermediate the points of support on the underside 25 of each pallet 20 a short rack which is preferably a roller-chain section 40 is secured by screws and mounting straps 41. When a pallet 20 arrives at the turning point 12, the sprocket wheel 35 engages the roller-chain section 40 and transports the pallet 20 to the lower conveyor section 15, the pallet 20 being turned 180�. In order to facilitate engagement of the roller-chain section 40 with the sprocket wheel 35 and with a sprocket wheel 52 which will yet be described in detail, the first and last rollers of the roller-chain section 40 are preferably designed with a smaller diameter than the other rollers or a smaller diameter than the tooth fillet curve of the sprocket wheel 35 or, alternatively, they are omitted entirely, leaving only the bolts 42 (FIG. 4) on which such rollers would otherwise be rotationally supported. In the interest of satisfactory tooth engagement, the sprocket wheel 35 preferably has a slightly larger pitch diameter than the sprocket wheels 9 and 9'. Guide rollers 43 and 43' are rotatably, laterally supported on the pallets 20, the axes of which guide rollers extend parallel to the axis of the shaft 32. The rollers 43 and 43' run, at the turning point 12, on spaced, substantially semicircular guide plates 26 and 26' which are also secured on the arms 30 and 30'. With this, lifting off of the pallets 20 during turning is prevented.
Each pallet 20 has plates 45 and 45' (FIG. 4) which are screwed to the underside of downwardly projecting bars 44 and 44', project inwardly, and are spaced below the driving pins 34 and 34' when the pallet 20 rests on the upper conveyor section 14. After the pallet 20 negotiates the turning point 12, the plates 45 and 45' rest on driving pins 34 and 34' and the empty pallets 20 hang from the portions of the conveyor chains 11 and 11' forming the lower conveyor section 15 as illustrated in FIG. 3.
The second turning point 13 (FIG. 3) corresponds substantially in its design with the turning point 12 already described, and equivalent parts are therefore identified with the same reference numerals. Two arms 50 and 50' which are secured to and extend away from the longitudinal carrier 8 support ball bearings 31 and 31' in which a shaft 51 is rotatably supported. The two sprocket wheels 10 and 10' are mounted on the shaft 51 so as to be fixed against rotation and spaced from one another. The sprocket wheels 10 and 10' respectively engage the two conveyor chains 11 and 11'. In order to be able to adjust the tension of the conveyor chains 11 and 11', the arms 50 and 50' are adjustably secured to the longitudinal carrier 8. A third sprocket wheel or gear 52 is provided on the shaft 51 between the two sprocket wheels 10 and 10', is rotatable relative to the shaft 51, and is pressed between two friction disks 36 and 36' disposed between a Belleville spring 37 supported by an adjusting nut 38 threadedly engaging the shaft 51 and a collar 53 provided on the shaft 51. The pitch diameter of the sprocket wheel 52 is selected so that the roller-chain section 40 of a pallet 20 which hangs from the lower conveyor section 15 will be engaged by the sprocket wheel 52, after which the wheel 52 will transport the pallet 20 to the upper conveyor section 14, whereby the pallet 20 is again turned 180�. During transport by the sprocket wheel 52, the pallets 20 are supported on the one hand by the plates 45 and 45' which engage the driving pins 34 and 34' on the conveyor chains 11 and 11', and on the other hand by their guide rollers 43 and 43' which engage round guide disks 54 and 54', which are mounted on the shaft 51 and fixed against rotation with respect thereto. The pallets 20 remain engaged with the sprocket wheel 52 for slightly more than 180�, until they again rest with their undersides 25 on the support clips 33 and 33' of the upper conveyor section 14.
Provided on the upper side of each pallet 20 is an exchangeable fixture 46 for holding the workpieces 21.
Particularly in the case of nonsymmetrical workpieces, the pallets 20 may have a tendency to take on an inclined orientation. To counteract this, a longitudinally extending guide rail 47 (FIG. 3) is arranged on the longitudinal frame 6 and is received between guide projections 48 and 48' provided on the roller-chain section 40. The guide rail 47 extends between and lies in the same plane as the sprocket wheels 35 and 52.
Although a particular preferred embodiment of the invention has been disclosed in detail for illustrative purposes, it will be recognized that variations or modifications of the disclosed apparatus, including the rearrangement of parts, lie within the scope of the present invention.

a curious question....
Went to DS's house this weekend and was conned into making a cushion cover :^) They bought a new Brother machine. It has fancy stitches built in and lots of doo-dads. It also has all hand operated controls...Whhhhaaaaaaattt???????? Yep, speed, forward, back, stop and needle rise...all hand operated; either push botton or slide switch....yikes!!! Is this a new trend???? How in the world do you hold things in place and still have a hand free to speed up, slow down and stop...etc.????? Am I THAT lost out in space?????(more probably lost in the dark ages...told you I was as old as dirt!!) I MENTIONED to him:^) the next time I have to sew something, to warn me in advance and I would bring my OWN machine...thankyouverymuch!!!!!!!
I have a Brother sewing/embroidery machine, and it has a button for needle up/down, thread cutting, and reverse, but the actual operation of the machine is with a foot pedal. That said, however, when it is in embroidery mode, you have to disconnect the foot pedal and then you push a start button to make it sew. It stops itself when it's done with each color.
Maybe they have this type of machine and they just haven't discovered the foot pedal in the box yet. Because, you can operate it in regular sewing mode w/o the foot pedal - you just push that start button and then have to push it again to stop. But it definitely is supposed to be run with a pedal for regular sewing.

When I bought It I had no clue what a Quad 4 was, but as soon as I drove It, I got impressed. 7000RPM (now 7400) and 180Hp from a stock 2.3liter I4. Oldsmobile really got it good! The car as a nice look and when I drive it I still get lots of comments about it. I go often to the drags strip and most people ask 'is that a V6?' they are suprised that a Chevy built in the 90' could push so much horsepower! Oh and The engine is from Oldsmobile, it's sad that GM closed it!

Over the years we've increased our inventory to include an abundance of brands, thousands of product categories and hundreds of thousands of products so that you can find your needs met right here at OpticsPlanet. Law enforcement and military professionals can browse through many options of trustworthy rifle scopes, red dot weapon sights, holsters and more, while lab researchers resupply their lab consumables, improve their microscopes, and set up their observatories with the most advanced research equipment. And we're continually trying to go above and beyond what's called for, giving you much more than a huge amount of options. Our customer service group is well trained to aid you in your quest to find what you need, and when an issue is outside of their level of expertise, one of our product specialists steps in to answer the most technical queries.
