This application is a division of U.S. application Ser. No. 098,085, filed Nov. 28, 1979, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,323,416.
This invention relates to labelling equipment for applying labels to cylindrical portions of containers such as bottles and more particularly to equipment for applying labels that wrap around the outer surface of the container.
It is well known to utilize mechanical handling equipment to apply labels to a container or the like. Such equipment usually includes a drum upon which the label is secured and which moves the label into engagement with the outer surface of the container. The label adheres to the container and is subsequently wrapped around the container by rolling it along a fixed surface.
The general improvement in labelling machines has resulted in increased use of rolls of labels which are individually severed as they are placed on the drum. The use of such rolls has avoided the problems associated with feeding individual precut labels from a batch, but some difficulty has been encountered in severing labels from the roll. Flying knife shears have been utilized, but these require accurate adjustment to prevent rapid wear of the cutting edge whilst ensuring the label is completely cut.
In our Canadian Pat. No. 951,685 there is disclosed a knife arrangement in which a stationary knife is inclined to the axis of rotation of a rotating knife to achieve a progressive cut across the width of the label. This arrangement has been successful in achieving complete cutting of the label without premature wear of the cutting edge. With this arrangement the label is engaged by a drum prior to severing and a tension induced in the label by rotating the drum at a greater peripheral speed than the feed rate of the label roll. It has now been found that the induced tension may cause the label to be torn from the roll as the knife approaches the end of its cutting action. This is due to the progressive reduction in width of unsevered paper which must resist the tension applied to the label. The tearing of the label is undesirable because of its appearance and because of the misregistration of the label on the drum.
According therefore to an aspect of the invention there is provided a cutter assembly to sever sheets of material from a strip moving along a predetermined path, the cutter assembly comprising a fixed support, a first knife element attached to the fixed support to extend transverse to the strip, a rotatable knife carrier mounted for rotation about a first axis, a second knife element attached to the rotatable knife carrier for movement therewith, drive means to rotate the rotatable knife carrier about the first axis and move the second knife element past the first knife element to produce a cutting action, the knife elements diverging in the direction of travel of the second knife element to provide progressive severing of the strip in a direction transverse to the strip, and cam means associated with the rotatable knife carrier and moveable into the path to engage the strip and during a latter part of the cutting action out of the path to disengage the strip whereby tension is removed from strip between the cutter assembly and the label carrier during the latter part of the cutting action.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention a cam Portion is mounted on a rotating knife holder to engage the label being severed from the roll. The cam portion is positioned ahead of the knife blade and moves out of engagement with the label as the knife blade approaches the end of its cut. The label is then slack as the cut is completed to avoid tearing of the label.
It is preferable to arrange the cutter assembly in a manner that permits easy adjustment and maintenance. However, since the various components must rotate in synchronism it has frequently been necessary to disengage drive components during maintenance.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of labelling equipment looking generally from an end of the equipment from which bottles are fed to receive labels;
FIG. 2 is a plan view having portions sectioned to show details of the labelling equipment;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view on line 3--3 of FIG. 2 showing a portion of the equipment;
FIG. 4 is a further plan view showing a part of a label feeder assembly to a larger scale than that used in FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a view on line 5--5 of FIG. 4 to illustrate the operation of cutting blades used to sever individual labels from a strip of labels;
FIG. 6 is a side view of the label feeder assembly showing some parts in section; and
FIG. 7 is a compound view of a label carrier which receives labels from the label feeder assembly, the right half being in section and the left half being generally an elevation.
The drawings illustrate labelling equipment capable of handling a strip of labels supplied on a spool, severing these labels individually, handling the labels and then applying them to bottles which are controlled and fed through the labelling equipment. Although the equipment is capable of use with various sizes of bottles, it is particularly designed for large bottles or other containers having cylindrical portions for receiving wrap-around labels. These labels tend to be unwieldy and therefore difficult to handle. Also, because of the length of the labels they tend to buckle or apply unevenly with unacceptable results. The present equipment controls the labels and applies them to the bottles while maintaining some tension in the labels. As a result the labels are applied evenly and positively to the bottles or containers.
Reference is now made to FIG. 1 which illustrates a preferred embodiment of labelling equipment 20 for use in applying wrap-around labels to a cylindrical portion of large plastic bottles. Labels in the form of a strip or web 22 are fed from a spool 24 to meet individually with bottles 26, 28 which are initially fed to the equipment by a conveyor 30. The bottles meet a separator 32 which allows them to be moved individually by a bottle feeder 34 to a point where each bottle receives a label from a label carrier 36. The bottle is then controlled by a bottle drive system 38 which rolls the bottle to receive the label and then dispatches the bottle out of the equipment.
The strip 22 of labels is drawn by a label feeder assembly 40 which also includes a cutting head as will be described later. As the labels leave the feeder assembly 40 they are attached individually to the label carrier using a pneumatic vacuum system in the carrier 36. The labels then pass a glue applicator assembly 42 before being applied to bottles.
The general arrangement can also be seen in FIG. 2. In this view an end of the strip 22 has been captured by label carrier 36, and preceding labels 44, 46 are attached to the carrier under the influence of the vacuum system as will be described. A label 48 precedes label 46 and has almost completely separated from the carrier 36 in the course of application onto a bottle 50. Details of FIG. 2 will be described more fully in combination with subsequent views but at this point it is important to note that the peripheral speed of the portion of the label carrier 36 which receives the labels is slightly greater than the linear speed of the strip 22 to maintain some tension in the label as it transfers from the label feeder assembly 40 to the label carrier 36. Similarly, the bottle drive system 38 is arranged to move the periphery of the bottle slightly faster than the label is moving with the carrier 36. This again ensures tension in the label as it is transferred from the carrier 36 to the bottle 50.
For the sake of convenience the label feeder assembly 40 will be described in detail before then describing the label carrier 36 and bottle drive system 38. Other parts of the equipment will be described where they relate to the feeder assembly, label carrier, and drive system.
Reference is next made to FIGS. 2, 4 and 6 with particular reference initially to FIG. 4 to describe the main components of the label feeder assembly 40. The strip 22 of labels is drawn into the label feeder assembly by a main or drive roll 52 combining with a rubber pinch roll 54 which is biased towards the main roll 52 by a pneumatic actuator 56 operating on the end of an L-shaped arm 58 which is in fixed relation with a pair of arms 60 and which pivots about an upright spindle 62. The arms 60 support a further spindle 64 about which the roll 54 is free to rotate. Consequently upon energizing the actuator 56 the pinch roll 54 is biased into engagement with the main roll 52 resulting in a driving force to progress the strip 22 through the assembly. The strip is also guided by idlers 66, 68 which both tend to remove any natural curl from the labels and also ensures that the strip is in good contact with the main roll 52 before the strip meets the pinch roll 54. The strip passes from the main roll 52 through a cutter assembly 70 and into engagement with the periphery of the carrier 36 where it is held by vacuum pads as will be described below. Because of the greater peripheral speed of the carrier 36, the strip slips relative to the carrier so that it is under tension. As seen in FIG. 4, the strip is moved from the main roll 52 into a position for severing into individual labels by a cutter assembly 70. This assembly consists of a stationary portion 72 and a rotating cutter head 74. The stationary portion 72 includes a blade 76 attached by screws 78 to a fixed bracket 80. The blade 76 can be aligned with a further blade 82 in a notched roll 84 using adjusting screws 86 before tightening screws 78 completely. The blade 82 is held in the notched roll 84 by screws 86.
The arrangement of the blades 76 and 82 is such that the strip is cut progressively across the width of the strip as indicated in FIG. 5. Here it will be seen that the blade 76 is inclined to a vertical axis whereas the blade 82 is vertical. As shown, the strip is being cut at a point 88 and has already been cut up to that point running from the bottom to the top of the strip 22.
It has been found that the arrangement of blade 76 relative to blade 82 results in an improved cut because of the scissor action as the blades come together while the strip is moving past the blades.
The inclination of the blade to the vertical axis ensures a square edge is cut as the label passes through the cutter assembly 70 so that it is not necessary to interrupt movement of the label whilst it is being cut.
A cam lobe 85 is attached to the notched roll 84 in advance of the blade 82. The cam lobe 85 is positioned so that its peripheral surface 87 engages the strip 22 as it moves past the stationary blade 76. As may best be seen in FIG. 4, the strip 22 is deflected in its path so that the effective distance between the stationary blade 76 and the point of engagement of the strip with the carrier 36 is increased. Since the strip is firmly held by pinch wheel 54 and main roll 52, the strip will slide relative to the periphery of the carrier 36.
As the notched roll 84 continues to rotate, as indicated in chain dot lines in FIG. 4, the cam lobe 85 moves out of the path of the strip 22 so that there is a temporary slack in the strip 22. The cam lobe 85 is positioned so as to disengage the strip 22 as the blades 76, 82 complete the cut. Since the tension is momentarily released from the strip, the tendency to tear the label from the strip is reduced.
It will be apparent that the path of the strip may be modified so that the cam engages the strip over a reduced arc provided that sufficient slack is created in the label to permit the cut to be completed before the difference in speed between the carrier 36 and the main roll 52 again introduces tension in the label.
Turning now to FIG. 6, it will be seen that the parts described with reference to FIG. 4 are driven from a single input spur gear 90 (part of which is shown). The gear meshes with a second gear 92 which is in turn in mesh with a further gear 94. The gear 92 is attached to the lower end of a shaft 95 to drive the notched roll 84. Similarly, the gear 94 is attached to the planetary portion of an epicyclic gear box 96 to drive the sun gear which is attached to the lower end of a shaft 98 associated with the main roll 52 (FIG. 4). (For simplicity, the planetary gears and sun gear have been omitted from the drawing.) The epicyclic gear box 96 includes a housing 100 which for the moment can be considered to be stationary. As a result, drive from the intermediate gear 92 results in rotation of the shaft 98 which is attached to the main roll 52 (FIG. 4) to drive the strip 22.
The epicyclic gear box 96 permits differential movement between the shafts 95 and 98. If the housing 100 is stationary, then the shaft 98 will rotate at a speed dictated by the relationship between the planet and sun gears in the epicyclic gear box. However it is possible to either advance or retard the shaft 98 relative to the shaft 95 by turning the housing 100 about the axis of shaft 98. This is necessary because of the allowance in length of each label. If it is found that the labels are being cut either in advance or behind the desired cutting line, then adjustment can be made through a motor and gear box 102 which drives a pinion 104 in mesh with a ring gear 106 associated with housing 100. The motor and gear box is reversible and is driven via a control circuit 108 which receives a signal from a device which senses the location of a label to determine whether or not the cutter should be advanced or retarded in relation to the labels. The device senses a predetermined marking on the labels and produces a signal to move the motor and gear box in an appropriate direction to ensure the cutter engages the label at the required position. The structure shown in FIG. 6 has a particular advantage from the standpoint of adjustment and maintenance. It will be seen that the structure includes a plate 110 resting on a part 112 of the frame of the equipment. The structure is located relative to the part 112 by a bearing housing 114 attached to the part 112 and containing a cylindrical portion 116 of the structure. The plate 110 can slide on the part 112 and rotate about the axis of shaft 95 so that the assembly shown in FIG. 6 can be swung about this axis and into a position for more convenient adjustment and maintenance. This is also made possible by the fact that such movement takes place about the axis of the shaft 95 so that the engagement of the gears 92, 94 is not affected.
The assembly shown in FIG. 6 can be locked in position using a simple engagement fitting controlled by a handle 118 and with the structure locked in position by this handle it assumes the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Such movement is particularly useful for adjusting the blade 76 (FIG. 4) of the stationary portion 72 of the cutter assembly 70. It will be appreciated that the spur gear 90 shown in FIG. 6 is driven through a suitable drive chain from a bull gear 121 shown at the bottom of FIG. 7. It will become apparent that this ensures that the label carrier 36 shown in FIG. 1 is driven synchronously with the notched roll 84. The reason for this will become evident from subsequent description.
Returning to FIG. 2. the label carrier 36 consists essentially of a large wheel having a discontinuous periphery. Four raised peripheral pads 120, 122, 124 and 126 are provided spaced equally about the periphery of the wheel. As will be described with reference to FIG. 7, these pads are provided with openings connected to a vacuum system to hold labels such as labels 44 and 46 on the pads.
FIG. 2 shows a label 129 which is projecting outside the label feeder assembly 40, but has yet to be severed from the strip 22. It will be seen that the leading edge of the label projects beyond the leading end of the pad 126 whereas the label 44 which has been severed from the strip sits on the pad and does not overhang the pad. This is because the wheel is made to move with sufficient peripheral speed that it creates slippage between the pad 126 and the label 129. Because the vacuum system maintains the label in contact with the pad, a tension exists in the label and this ensures that the label is drawn into firm engagement with the pad. When the label is severed from the strip, it will have slipped on the wheel to a point where the leading end of the label lies immediately adjacent the leading end of the pad 126. As soon as the label is severed it will be drawn onto the pad and take up a position such as that shown for label 44. This process continues as the severed label progresses with the wheel past the glue applicator assembly 42. Here glue is applied in a conventional manner, the applicator assembly being controlled to move out of engagement with the wheel should there be no label on the pad. This control will be described subsequently.
After a label such as label 46 has passed the applicator assembly 42 a leading end is stripped off the wheel by a pair of belts 128 (one of which is seen in FIG. 2 and both of which can be seen in FIG. 7). These belts pass around the wheel 119 driven by a roll 130 which causes a linear velocity in the belts greater than the peripheral velocity of the wheel 119. Conventional bottle feeder 34 is driven also from the bull gear 121 (FIG. 7) to cause bottles to be in position to receive labels from the wheel 119. The bottle 50 for instance has reached a reaction pad 132 supported by a wall 134 and is biased into contact with the belt 128 so that the bottle is driven linearly along the conveyor 30 at half the speed of the belt. The belt guides the leading edge of the label into contact with the outer surface of the bottle 50 which is moving faster than the label, so that as soon as the adhesive on the label comes into contact with the bottle, the label begins to adhere to the bottle and is pulled off the wheel while maintaining sliding engagement with the associated one of the raised pads on the wheel. This tension ensures an even and controlled application of the label as the bottle rolls in contact with the pad 132. However, because some labels are particularly long, an auxiliary vacuum pad 136 is provided to further support the label after it has slid off the pad 132 and before it is applied completely to the bottle 50. This will be better understood with reference to FIG. 3 which shows a sectional view through the auxiliary vacuum pad 136. Once the label has been applied the bottle is driven along at about the speed of the conveyor by a further single belt 138 which is also driven by the roll 130.
Returning now to the details of construction of the label carrier 36, it is evident from FIG. 2 that the wheel 119 includes two groups of vacuum pipes, an outer group 140 and an inner group 142. It will be seen that the outer pipes 140 serve the ends of the labels whereas the inner pipes 142 serve the centres of the labels. With this arrangement it is possible to release or more positively secure the centre of the label independently of the ends and vice versa.
Reference is next made to FIG. 7 to describe the structure of the label carrier 36. The carrier rotates about an axis defined by a vertical shaft 144 driven from a main drive and gear box 146. The bull gear 121 is attached to the shaft 144 and drives all of the other parts of the equipment through a conventional drive chain.
The shaft 144 passes through a bearing housing 148 and is supported at ends of the housing by suitable bearings 150, 152 which include a thrust bearing. The bearing housing 148 includes a flange 154 sitting on a part 156 of the frame of the equipment and attached by suitable bolts 158.
The bearing housing 148 also supports a vacuum distributor 160 having a lower part 162 fixed to the bearing housing by a further flange 164 and an upper or movable portion 166 which rotates with the wheel 119 driven by a pin 168 as will be described. The portions 162 and 166 are machined to define smooth faces in engagement with one another to facilitate the upper portion riding on the lower portion as the upper portion rotates.
The lower portion 162 defines an annular recess 170 covered by a plate 172 and seal 174. These parts combine to define an annular manifold served by a vacuum connection 176. This manifold then serves the pipes 140, 142 by way of concentric rows of openings 178, 180 in the fixed part 162 and corresponding openings 182, 184 associated with the pipes 140, 142. The openings 178, 180 extend partially about the part 162 as illustrated in broken outline in FIG. 2. Consequently, as the wheel 119 rotates the openings 182, 184 are affected by vacuum when they coincide with openings 178, 180. It will be evident that the size of openings 178, 180 can be varied to provide different degrees of vacuum in the pipes 140, 142 as the wheel 119 rotates.
Each of the pipes 140, 142 terminates at its upper extremity in a fitting which connects the pipe to one of a series of upright bores 186. Each of these bores acts as a manifold to a series of radial openings 188 for drawing air from the front of one of the raised pads such as pad 120. A label is shown in ghost outline fixed to such a pad. In fact, these pads are preferably of an elastomeric material bonded to an outer ring 190 which is made up of two halves and attached to the main body of the wheel.
Each of the bores 186 is associated with the pipes 140 at the leading end of a label has a vacuum sensor 192 at its lower end. This sensor normally rides on a track 194 until it passes a point at which a label should be picked up. In the event that a label is picked up there will be a build up of negative pressure in the bore 186 which will retain a loose plunger 196 against a seat 198 to thereby seal the bore 186. The plunger 196 will then be in a raised position and as the wheel 119 rotates the plunger will pass above an electrical switch 200. However, in the event that a label is not supplied to the wheel for some reason there will be insufficient vacuum built up in the bore 186 to maintain the plunger in its upper position and it will then drop off the end of the track into the position shown in FIG. 7. As the wheel rotates the plunger will contact the switch 200 and this switch will be used to energize an actuator 202 (FIG. 2) associated with the glue applicator assembly 42. Energizing this actuator results in moving the applicator assembly away from the wheel to avoid applying glue to the wheel in the absence of a label.
After the plunger 196 has met the switch 200, it will continue in the dropped or lower position until it reaches an incline 204 at a leading end of the track 194 which raises the plunger back to a position in which it engages seat 198.
The wheel 119 includes a central boss 206 which locates on an upper extremity of the shaft 144 and is engaged on the shaft by a key 208. An extension 209 on the upper extremity of the shaft is threaded to receive a knob 212 which retains the wheel on the shaft. It will be evident that once the knob is removed it is possible to disconnect the pipes 140, 142 and to lift the wheel off the equipment. Once this is done the distributor can be removed so that it is quite simple to service the equipment and to change parts if this is necessary for different labels.
Returning to the operation of the equipment, in the position shown in FIG. 2, pipe 140 adjacent label 128 is applying vacuum and has picked up the forward end of the label. As the wheel 119 rotates this label remains in contact although it will slide on the wheel until the label is separated from the strip 22. At this point it will have dropped back from label 44 by the amount of the space between pads 126 and 120 and will then effectively take up a position similar to that shown for label 44. Because a label has been attached to the wheel, the sensor 192 (FIG. 7) will fail to touch the switch 200 so that glue will be applied to the label as it continues to move into position for application to a bottle. It should be noted that it is possible with the arrangement of pipes 140, 142 to apply more vacuum at the centre of the label during gluing if required and in fact to vary the vacuum effect on the label by changing the sizes of the holes in the parts of the distributor serving the pipes. As mentioned earlier, the leading end of the label is stripped from the wheel by the belts 128 and at this point vacuum is no longer applied to the leading end of the label. Also, at this point the label becomes attached to a bottle and in order to simplify slippage of the label on the wheel it is preferable to discontinue vacuum through the pipe 142 to the centre of the label and to rely on vacuum on the trailing edge of the label through one of the pipes 140. Thus the holes 180 terminate at a position corresponding to the circumferential position of the conduit 140 just after the leading edge of the label is detached from the suction pad. The initial contact between the label and the bottle takes place just where the belt leaves the wheel and the differential speed between the belt and the wheel ensures tension in the label. This differential speed is achieved using a particular arrangement of belt engagement on the wheel 119 as will be described.
Reference is again made to FIG. 7 to describe the parts of the wheel 119 associated with containing the belts 128. These belts sit in respective recesses 210, 212 in radial engagement with slip rings 214, 216 made up in segments and of a low friction plastic material such as polytetrafluoroethylene. In turn, these slip rings are in radial engagement with brass wear strips 218, 220 which are also positioned in the ring 190 at the bottom of the respective recesses 210, 212. As a result of this arrangement the belts 128 can be driven at a linear speed greater than the peripheral speed of the wheel without interfering with the labels before they are ready to be stripped from the wheel. However, as soon as a label is stripped off the wheel and in engagement with a bottle, the speed of the label becomes that of the belt thereby ensuring tension in the label as it is stripped off the wheel.
The belts 128 are driven continuously by roll 130 which in turn is driven from the bull gear 121 (FIG. 7) through suitable drive members. Tension is maintained in the belt by an idler 222 and, as mentioned earlier, the single belt 138 is also driven by the roll 130. This belt passes around an idler 224 and tensioning idler 226 so that the belts 128 and 138 combine to roll the bottles along the reaction pad 132 and subsequent pad 228 with a linear velocity substantially equal to that of the conveyor 30. Guides 230 are shown in ghost outline to support the bottles at the neck and to limit the possibility of the bottles being toppled by engagement with the label etc.

A couple of hats for my new grandbaby
I've been madly knitting socks and hats for Exaiden, my 2 month old grandson. Here are two of his mother's favorites.
Carol Ann, this was a free pattern I found on the internet, but for the life of me I cannot seem to locate the site anymore. Here is the pattern:
Knit this in the round on #7 dpn's using worsted weight yarn. Gauge is 4 st per inch
Earflaps, make 2
Cast on 3 st
kfb in first st of each row and knit remainder of st until you have 15 st.
Leave a 12 in tail and place on holder or dpn
With working yarn purl across first earflap begining at opposite end as tail. With the tail in front and working yarn to the back cast on 13 st using long tail method. Now, purl across second earflap as done with the first one. Cast on 21 st as before.
Join and work three rounds in garter st. switch to St st and work until hat measures 5 in.
Round 1: K6, k2tog
Round 2 and all even rows: K
Round 3: K5, k2tog
Round 5: K4, k2tog
Continue in this manner until you have 4 st remaining, k one round. Break yarn leaving a 6 inch tail, using a yarn needle draw the tail thru all remaining stiches to finish.
I added the ties and the seed stitch chevrons. It's such an easy pattern.
Those are adorable - I have a nephew coming in December and have been frantically hat-making as well.
The chevron pattern is just lovely - and perfect for a little boy.
(congrats on the new grandbaby!)

Deal Chevy in this summer
Time for well-stocked Jets to join the off-season action
NEW YORK -- Kevin Cheveldayoff has shown us he can waltz. Now it's time see if he can do the Hustle.
The patient Jets GM has a plan and he's been resolute in his approach to repairing the years of damage inflicted upon the franchise now known as the Winnipeg Jets.
The Jets were bankrupt of depth at both the NHL and AHL level when Cheveldayoff was hired to steer the hockey end of the franchise. The first-time NHL GM's top priority was to restock the organization. His mantra has been to draft, develop and retain his players.
Andrew Ladd, Ondrej Pavelec and Evander Kane have all been signed to long-term deals and Cheveldayoff is working on new deals for Zach Bogosian, Bryan Little and Blake Wheeler.
Draft picks Mark Scheifele, Jacob Trouba and Adam Lowry are coming on stream this fall and Cheveldayoff has 10 picks, including six in the first three rounds, in Sunday's entry draft.
The foundation is not fully entrenched but it's in a much better place than when Cheveldayoff began his reclamation project.
There does appear, however, to be a window for Cheveldayoff to enhance his spade work with some splashier manoeuvres. He has assets and cap space with which to work. This could be the Summer of Chevy.
There is also a more volatile marketplace than the NHL has seen in years, due to the reduction of the salary cap to $64 million from $70 million. While many teams must reduce payroll or hold constant, Cheveldayoff is positioned to add talent, both in the form of draft-pick prospects and high-priced players via trade or free agency. He's a man with options and the cash to explore them.
The Jets recently gave head coach Claude Noel a one-year contract extension and it was quite clear in his comments afterward that a playoff berth is expected this season. But with the Jets moving to a new home in the west, the landscape is unknown.
The Jets were a one-line team last season with one of the league's worst goal differentials. They missed the playoffs in one of the softest divisions and, unless the personnel is improved, it's difficult to see that changing this season in a division that will include the Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks as well as playoff teams in the St. Louis Blues and Minnesota Wild.
The Jets will most likely be fighting for a wild-card berth unless Cheveldayoff can add some key pieces -- and there seems to be an appetite within the organization to do just that.
The draft is the first piece of business and with a pick in the first round, three in the second and two in the third, Cheveldayoff has assets to try and move up for a higher selection. Top three would be very expensive, but there could be a deal for the Jets to move from 13th to somewhere in the five-to-eight slot.
Cheveldayoff says he hasn't contemplated dealing talented but underachieving Dustin Byfuglien, but his name pops up in discussions with other clubs. It's also no secret the club and young centre Alex Burmistrov aren't seeing eye-to-eye right now. Both could be intriguing trade possibilities.
Teams with cap issues might be looking to deal roster players for draft picks and Cheveldayoff is flush in that department.
Don't expect a New Orleans Saints everything-but-the-kitchen-sink for the right to select Ricky Williams type of deal but moving one of his seconds and one of his thirds is an option Cheveldayoff will be happy to discuss. He collected these picks to open doors. Now he's standing in front of those doors and studying which he'd like to go through.
Don't be fooled into thinking Cheveldayoff isn't a deal-maker because he's remained mostly quiet since taking over the Jets. The old maxim is to never trade from a position of weakness and that is where the Jets have been until now. Cheveldayoff was prudent to bide his time.
But this weekend, Winnipeg definitely finds itself in a position of strength. Cheveldayoff has deftly positioned the chess pieces.
We've seen him put a plan in place and stick to it. Now it's time to see him operate outside that box.
We're not expecting Cheveldayoff to Tango but how about a little Electric Slide?

a community supporting ambient music, art, poetry, photography, games and more
The Soundscapes Concert Series is intended to bring electronic music to the Lehigh Valley by being the concert companion to Galactic Travels and Thought Radio, two radio shows in the Allentown - Lehigh Valley area of eastern Pennsylvania. Like the radio shows, the SOUNDSCAPES CONCERT SERIES features Electronic, Ambient and Spacemusic. There are many reasons for starting this concert series, not the least of which is to bring the music heard on Galactic Travels and Thought Radio to the area in a comfortable, friendly and relaxed concert setting. This also has the byproduct of providing valuable performance opportunities to the musicians who put so much energy into their craft. This is their chance to step out of the safety of their studios and connect with the fans of electronic music.

2 farewell flights
WWI-era plane being grounded
Before there was flight training at Sheppard Air Force Base, the Army set up shop in Wichita Falls from 1917-18 to train aviators in the Curtiss JN4-D Jenny at Call Field.
The Jenny, housed at Kickapoo Downtown Airport as part of the Call Field Memorial Exhibit, will take to the air for two final public exhibitions, the first Saturday as pilot David Martin flies the World War I-era aircraft above Call Field Road as part of a tribute to the 34 aviators who died during training.
Bob Seabury, a local builder and aviation enthusiast, said they will begin prepping the plane at the airport at 10 a.m., and it is scheduled to be over Call Field Road by around 10:30 a.m.
"Thirty-four young men died out there learning to fly that airplane (96) years ago at Call Field," he said of the military pilot trainees who stepped into the aircraft knowing the dangers of the relatively new technology. "It was so primitive back then. The airplane was primitive, the preflight was primitive, the flight instruction was primitive, everything was primitive, it was just kind of trial and error."
Seabury said as Martin pilots the aircraft he will dip the wings, a military tradition of honoring fallen airmen.
He said it will be a nostalgic flight because it is one of only five of the aircraft in the world that can still fly. Since the Jenny will become a display at the new Wichita Falls Municipal Airport, the city has asked that it not take additional flights beginning Jan. 1.
The second flight will be Sunday at Kickapoo, and the Jenny will circle the airfield about five or six times, Seabury said. A preflight inspection will begin at 2 p.m., and the Jenny should be in the air about 30 minutes later.
After Sunday's flight, the Jenny will be grounded until it is flown to the new airport in the fall. Seabury said guests are still welcome to visit the Call Field Memorial Exhibit, and they will even fire up the airplane so visitors can see and hear the plane run.
Visitors can also view the other exhibits and also take rides in vintage military vehicles. The exhibit is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

CHICAGO – Chris Rock isn't a huge writer/director, but when he does make a film, it's an event to consider. For example, he made black president tale "Head of State" long before then-senator Barack Obama was even considered for the real-life role, and whether behind the stand-up mic or in an interview, he's a voice to be reckoned with.

Vincent Cassel Gives Riveting Performance in 'Mesrine: Killer Instinct'Submitted by BrianTT on August 26, 2010 - 8:36pm
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – The film around its riveting central performance may be a little more flawed than the entire project's international reputation would have you believe but Vincent Cassel alone makes a trip to "Mesrine: Killer Instinct" worth the time and emotional effort. Be warned that this is not a crime epic for the faint of heart and those who have difficulty with an anti-hero protagonist may be turned off but those attuned to this kind of storytelling will find a lot to like here.

Student and Faculty Accomplishments to Be Celebrated
The end of the academic year is a time to celebrate the accomplishments of the students and faculty of Fairmont State University.
The end of the academic year is a time to celebrate the accomplishments of the students and faculty of Fairmont State University.
As part of the Introduction to Global Perspectives course, which offers students a chance to familiarize themselves with cultures and concepts outside their own, 11 students and two instructors from Fairmont State University spent their spring break in Canada. This trip, which offered many students their first international experience, was funded by a grant from the Consortium for Internationalizing Higher Education, part of the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission.
Saturday, March 24, 2012 offered an exciting opportunity to experience campus life at Fairmont State University through Campus Visitation Day. The pictures are from that day's events.
As a follow up February's Black History Month program on "The Aubrey Stewart Project," the Office of Student Affairs and the Office of Multicultural Affairs will host a showing of the movie "The Wereth 11" on the shared main campus of Fairmont State University and Pierpont Community & Technical College. The event will take place at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 29, in the Falcon Center third floor conference rooms. Admission is free and open to the public.
Kestrel, Fairmont State University's professional journal of literature and art, invites everyone to take part in the Kestrel Celebration Friday, March 30, and Saturday, March 31, to celebrate the release of their newest issue, Kestrel 27. From a Poetry Making workshop on Friday to readings on Friday and Saturday, Kestrel Celebration offers the perfect event for you.
On Sunday, March 25, beginning at 2 p.m., the Fairmont State University Honors Program and women's volleyball team will collaborate in honor of a good cause as they take part in the Soup Opera's third annual walk-a-thon.
As part of a network of women supporting the campus and community, the Women of Fairmont State University and Pierpont Community & Technical College gathered for "A Spring Celebration" on March 20.
Disappointment sometimes leads to a new way to win. From age 12 in Lordstown, Ohio, Meagan Gibson knew she wanted to play college volleyball. Practicing, playing and suffering through injuries paid off through a scholarship from Fairmont State University—but it came with a price.
"I received a medical redshirt my freshman year with the hopes of healing for the next season. I received cortisone shots, did specified strengthening programs and went through pounds of ice. It was a chilling experience, physically and mentally," she said.
He might have desk space in the Education Building, but his true office can be found at the peak of Cooper's Rock, the trails of the Appalachian Mountains and the depths of the Grand Canyon. For Education faculty member and Fairmont native Matt Schmuck, his passion for outdoor adventure has become his career – and students are reaping the benefits.
As the sound of airplane engines roar in the background, Mark Heefner steps out of a single engine plane, fresh from a trip to see his girlfriend, Mariah Roth'11, in Charlotte, N.C. The 2011 Fairmont State University graduate and pilot returns the plane and heads to his desk a hundred yards away at the North Central West Virginia Airport in Bridgeport. This wasn't Heefner's first solo trip, but he has experienced many firsts at the airport and is anxious to create more.

Miracle! Cat returned after 9 weeks!
DD & DSIL moved to the new house 10 weeks ago. A week later, Sandy escaped. She is 15 yrs. old, declawed, and a tiny Siamese mix. We were all feeling sick about it ever since. We have a LOT of Hawks and Buzzards in the area. And she's so tiny and old and a housecat and declawed. And then she showed up last night mewing outside the fence, and kinda skinny. WOW! My DD got her @ 6 wks old when she was a Junior in HS. (She's 32 now.) Sandy is a SURVIVOR! Somebody HAD to be feeding her, thank God.
A friend of my sister had a cat disappear for about 6 weeks and was found. They had pretty much given up. But a friend of a neighbor called the neighbor and said there was a cat there that fit the description. Off they went and sure enough, she came back home. Tired, hungry and probably a little dehydrated, but home nonetheless.
Being a realtor, I hear alot of stories about cats that disappear when people move. Did anyone check to see if the cat had gone back to the old house? Most of the time, this is where they are. I've heard that when you move, you should keep the cat inside for a week or two, until they figure out this is their new home. Glad your daughter got her back. :)
Moving is a scarey time for pets...it really is a blessing Sandy made it home ok...a good ending for once. Hope she didn't pick up any germies to make her sick later.
Linda117, it is recommended you secure your pet more than you would normally when you're moving...it can save their lives. I've heard one or two weeks also.
It is so nice to hear of a happy ending like this....
When we moved to a place on the River, our Panther Cat disappeared... and was gone for about 3 months, when a fellow in town mentioned a black cat that was stealing his dogs food... he doesn't like cats and said that cat was a dead cat if he comes around much more...Well this fellow lived only about 4 miles away and about half way back to our old h ome... so I told him of Panther and implored him to not shoot him....and he relented... We searched for another few weeks to no avail.. and then one day while driving up over a ridge..... he ran in front of the car... I stopped and called him, and Panther jumped up out of the ditch and into my arms, licking my face... He was about half his normal weight, but he was alive and in my arms... I sobbed with relief... and brought him home... he even snuggled with our dog...
Critters can sure amaze you..
How wonderful that she returned.
We were moving one time and we had a small black cat and she went and got in the front seat of the truck and stayed there all the time we made several trips to and from. Guess she figured she wasn't going to be left behind.
Sandy escaped again but returned that evening. The escape route in the fence has been blocked. She must have had a great 9 week adventure if she's decided to escape again? What so ironic is that as an old house cat, she mostly sits on her perch and sleeps/chills out. That's been going on for a few years. And now she's got the energy/gumption to escape and live out in the wild after her 9 week adventure. It's like she's found the fountain of youth.
My cat is kinda like that. He's strictly indoor only but is constantly looking for an opportunity to slip past someone at the door. He hangs out right at my front door when I come home and I have to use my purse (or grocery bags) to push him out of the way so that I can come in, lol.
He's escaped a few times when I wasn't paying enough attention and he gets even worse for a few days after his "adventure." He gets even more determined to go back outside.
DS & DDIL had a cat, Sampy, that they adopted as a rescue kitten. He would always charge the front door whenever it was open, like he wanted to escape. That went on for YEARS! Block Sampy as he's trying to run out the door. Sometimes several times in a day. So, one day they decided to not stop him and let him run out the door. He hit the door threshold and ran back into the house. Game over. He was too scaredy-cat to follow through with going outside.

I have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-AD700's that I have had for about 3 years. My wife has been using them and when I used her computer last I noticed that the wire that goes into the headphones is getting really stiff. Up towards the top it is almost rigid. I don't want to even try to bend it because I fear it would break the wire. It seems like it gets softer after getting about 6 inches down the wire. They wire doesn't feel completely normal until about a foot down though. Any ideas on what is causing this or how to fix it? I may have to re wire them but I have never done that before.

But I can bust one take without looking at no paper
It doesn't take a bunch of takes or me to stand here in this booth all day
from Eminem – Big Weenie Lyrics on Genius
Eminem is very well known for his freestyle abilities and by saying that he doesn't need to "look at no paper" means that he doesn't need to write his rhymes, he can just freestyle an awesome diss. Whereas for Benzino it would take him many takes to make a song.
This can also be taken to mean that even though The Source keeps giving Eminem bad reviews, he keeps rapping. So he doesn't need to see The Source's magazines or… PAPERS.

HONOLULU (AP) — Hawaii's hotel industry set records for room rates in February as more tourists traveled to the islands from around the world, according to a monthly study issued by a private consulting company.
Hawaii hotel room rates up 13 percent in Feb.
The average rate hotels charged for their rooms surged 13 percent to $233.30 in February, according to the study by Smith Travel Research and Hospitality Advisors. That's the highest average daily rate ever recorded for the month of February.
Average daily room rates on Oahu hit an all-time high of $209.18. No room rate records were broken on the Big Island, but they still rose nearly 10 percent to $222.05.
Joseph Toy, president of Hospitality Advisors LLC, predicted hotel revenue will set a record during the first quarter of the year.
"We're seeing a boom in the travel industry nationally and in fact globally," said Joseph Toy, president of Hospitality Advisors LLC. "Coming out of the global recession, there's been a lot of pent up demand for travel overall. Throughout the country and most of these destinations, we're seeing a bump."
Hawaii in particular is benefiting from the return of more Japanese visitors and growing numbers of travelers from South Korea and China, he said. More Australians are also coming to Hawaii to take advantage of their nation's strong currency.
A rise in international travel tends to give Oahu a disproportionate boost because Honolulu's airport is the only one that currently receives flights from overseas.

Willie Claus Card. Not Much Left After Taxes
Member reactions:
Thanks to hobbit90 Elegary lucianomorelli pcrdds MsgtBob Wanderer hobbit90
It feels a bit like a sad card, I wish there were more Jolly feeling of Christmas. But it's a great artwork nonetheless. Congrats on the silver, Hits. and Merry Christmas.
It is sad, and it is poignant. There is no card I could design with a more positive Christmas message, though. The IRS took everything Willie owned, everything, including Trigger, his Martin guitar. However his fans and friends bought most all of his stuff from the IRS auction and gave it all back to him. There is no better story that illustrates the spirit of giving that I know of. My intent was to bring you all back in time to when Willie was destitute and in his darkest hour just days away from experiencing one of the all time greatest moments of true friendship. The happy ending I left for you to fill in, given the viewer knows music history. I think my aim was a little high for some voters, perhaps unfamiliar with Willie Nelson. I think the high votes were for technical execution rather than content. Sometimes your best just is not good enough. Que sera sera Thanks Newsy and a Merry Christmas to you and Mac and Kellie.

there is an escape clause if you don't want the job Hitspinner.
Bwhahahaha Sassyfras. Naturally that would be Section 8, Santa Clause 1. "If at any time the acting Santa becomes so submerged in the role that he starts to fart "Jingle Bells" he may be exempt from the duty.
That's fantastic. I like it. Is working very well.. Great work.Congrats hidden...

Funny Santa Claus Products
Santa Claus never refused to endorse any product. Why? Because he's technically not a trademarked character - this fat old jolly fellow is in the public domain - which means every company who wants to use Santa to promote their products are free to do so. And who, if not Santa, could help boost your sales before Christmas? Some companies practically abused Santa image using him for products he hardly fits with. Here's a nice gallery of vintage ads with Santa. Add Santa Claus image to labels, brands, and products normally not appropriate for Santa image. Please keep your entries Safe For Work.
Funny Bad Santa Claus Labels
[ The state of Maine has banned a beer because its label depicts Santa Claus enjoying a pint of brew. The state said that the label for "Santa's Butt Winter Porter" is "undignified and improper" and may attract children. ] I understand Maine is concerned about morality and "wrong appeal" to children, but banning a beer for using the image of Santa is like banning Playboy magazine for using the image of bunny. Children love bunnies more than they love beer. So Maine is barking up the wrong tree here. If you want to clean you state morals, start with ho, ho, hos on your streets, not on beer labels. In this contest you are asked to add Santa Claus image to labels, brands, and products which would be considered inappropriate use of Santa image. E.g. Santa Claus on alcohol products, condoms, guns, cigarettes, etc.
Funny Celebrities Santa Claus
Who do you think would make a good Santa of the Year? Create images of politician / celebrities as Santa of the Year!
Funny Santa Claus Celebrities
In our final "Christmas Themed" news contest, we're looking for images of celebrities, politicians or any famous faces dressed up as Santa, Mrs. Claus or Santa's elves.
Funny Santa Claus Flight
What will Santa's flight be like this year? Will he have a new sleigh? Maybe it's time Santa change his method of transportation? Create images that involve Santa's delivery of Christmas gifts this year. This is a broad contest, and it's Christmas so there will be great latitude in what will be accepted! Merry Christmas to all, and to all... a good chop!

I'm glad to introduce my brand new game, called JAKE.
The concept is an original take on the classic snake game, more like a puzzle game.
Jake will change color at any step and will eat only dots of the right color.
Also, stars will help you to stay alive longer, reducing your size.
I integrated google+ game services for a better game experience (3 leaderboards and 32 funny achievements to unlock)
Here's the link to the play store (I can't post link, please copy & paste):
I will really appreciate any kind of feedback

The Space
One bedroom apartment located in a prewar carriage house located in the Clinton Hill section of Brooklyn. Apartment is furnished with modern decor and has all amenities essential to make the guests stay comfortable and memorable. This apartment is near public transportation ( the c and g trains) connecting the guests to Manhattan within twenty minutes. The Brooklyn Academy of Music as well as the Brooklyn Flea Market, the Farmer's Market, Fort Greene Park, Prospect Park and a multitude of interesting shops and restaurants are
a stone's throw away. Guests love the proximity to Manhattan but also fall in love with the charm and flavor of the Brooklyn neighborhood. The streets are tree-lined with many beautifiul stunning brownstones and mini-mansions that are still owned by single families. One of the most amazing days is the day of the New York Marathon, when neighbors and tourists all gather to cheer the runners on. The parks are also always filled with wonderful activities for people of all ages.
Guests are expected to enjoy the space and leave it as they found it, The cleaning of course will be done by the housekeeper.
Claire was very accessible and responded quickly to our needs. The apartment was great. Very clean and spacious with a well-equipped kitchen. Very convenient to the Clinton Hill/Fort Greene areas as well as the subway line.
We didn't meet Claire or her team, but the apartment was very clean, well-equipped, comfortable and close to public transport. We really enjoyed our stay.
It is excellent value for money and I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for something a little alternative away from the hustle and noise of Manhattan.
My sister and I stayed at Claire's Carriage House Apt. the nights of March 6 and 7. Upon our arrival, we were greeted cordially by Claire and her staff, shown up to the Apt., and given the keys.
Although it was around noon, Claire was nice enough to let us move into the Apt., mostly just to drop off our bags, as it was all ready to go anyway. (And Claire even offered to help carry a bag up.)
As you have already read in other reviews, this apartment is secure, clean as a whistle, very spacious, fully equipped, and perfectly located in Brooklyn. If you are in Brooklyn on business or perhaps (like us!) have family in Brooklyn, this is the place to stay. (Indeed, my niece was precisely ONE BLOCK away; what a pleasant surprise for all of us!)
The next time I'm in Brooklyn, I would not hesitate to stay at the Carriage House Apartment again.
Our host Claire greeted us at the apartment and couldn't have been more welcoming on the cold and frosty day we checked in. The apartment is very charming, roomy and comfortable and well equipped. Our thirteen year old son enjoyed the sofa bed in front of the TV. Only hiccup was a malfunctioning heating system but Claire immediately got us space heater's while she had the mechanic/ electrician come in on Saturday and had it fixed immediately. The bed in the bedroom is very comfy also with lovely bed linens. Fantastic area also and perfect for us because we were there to see our daughters thesis exhibition at Pratt Institute which is just a few blocks away- a beautiful historic campus nearby.
The apartment was just as pictured. clean and comfortableand a great location . I wouldn't hesitate to come back again. my husband and I were there for couple days visiting our daughter who lives a few blocks away. we will definitely be back. Claire was a wonderful hostess and whenever we had any questions or concerns she was there immediately
Gracious and understanding host, beautiful apartment and perfect location right by the train. Highly recommended. Thanks again Claire and I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
We had a very nice stay on a very snowy weekend! The apartment was great and Claire was very responsive. I hope to return!
One of the things I enjoy the most is meeting people.. When I am not working as an attorney I spend a lot of my time cooking, baking and feeding people. I'm originally from New Orleans, the mecca of hospitality...Down there people have a way of welcoming strangers into their homes and feeling that it's their fault if the person doesn''t have a great time. I love my Clinton Hill neighborhood because in alot of ways people's attitudes about what is important mirrors that of my native hometown. LAISSEZ LE BON TEMPS ROULEZ. And may God help you, if you don't understand.

Gallery: Non-Billboard in Washington Advertises Nothing but Clean Air
In an age where we are inundated with advertisements that distract us from what we are doing and where we are going, the "Non-Sign II" does the exact opposite by reminding us of our surroundings.
Lead Pencil Studio's Daniel Mihalyo says, "Borrowing the effectiveness of billboards to redirect attention away from the landscape… this permanently open aperture between nations works to frame nothing more than a clear view of the changing atmospheric conditions beyond."
Questioning consumer culture is a reoccurring theme of Lead Pencil Studio's work. This stunning billboard gives us a break from constant images, colors, and words, and reintroduces us to the simple beauty of the environment.
Perhaps more surprising than the structure itself is that it was commissioned the federal government. This grand gesture is a step towards growing national interest in the environment, and even good taste in art!

Fossil (FOSL +7.1%) shares bounce strongly after an early drop following Q4 results that exceeded EPS estimates but missed on revenues. Investors decide they like the outlook for EPS of $5.40-$5.50 FY2012 and $0.90-$0.92 Q1, and 15% revenue gains for both the quarter and year, which implies $2.96B in FY2012 and $617.3M in Q1.

I am unable to plug the cord into my camera to download pics. I was onlt able to accomplish this once & even then it did not insert fully into the camera. Would a new cord help or is this a problem with my new camera. I received it as a gift for Christmas 2009.

I have had this camera about 4 months. All of a sudden when I turned it on the lens would open & immediately close. I thought I did it myself. After repeated times of doing this I thought maybe I needed a new battery. Tried a new battery...did not solve the problem. The camera was not dropped & I am the only one who uses it. Any suggestions...please?

Help make it easier for other Avvo users to choose the right lawyer by sharing your experience with this attorney. It's fast, simple, and safe.
Lawyers: Use the Peer Endorsements section to provide input about other attorneys.
I was charged with making an illegal turn on Hampton Blvd in Norfolk, Va and I asked CJ Vandervelde to handle my case. That was the best decision that I could have made. CJ is a very competent Attorney and the kind of person that anyone would want to advocate on their behalf. She was very responsive to any questions or concerns that I had with regard to the process of the traffic court system. CJ knows how to nuance her arguments to advocate for your best interests while at the same time not alienating the judge, a rare and dangerous combination. Most attorneys love the sound of their own voice and they just talk and talk and talk but CJ understands that we were born with 2 ears and one mouth; so she listens twice as much as she talks, what a concept!
Without getting too deep in the weeds, CJ got my case dismissed through her extensive knowledge of the law and her graceful application of it. Thanks CJ, you're the best!!!
I am a Government worker and could not afford to loose my security clearance for a traffic ticket. CJ Vandervelde and her staff were very responsive, proffessional and handled my situation in a timely manner and saved my clearance and job! Thank you CJ!
