Douglas, 15532 Del Gado Drive, Sherman Oaks, Calif. 91403 Filed Apr. 5, 1965, Ser. No. 445,657 Int. Cl. A63b 43/06, 37/02, 37/12 US. Cl. 273-213 2 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An illuminable ball having a self-contained, dynamically balanced, battery and oscillator energy source connected by an electrical circuit to a layer of electroluminescent material adjacent an outer surface layer of light-transmitting material, with a switch for completing the circuit between the energy source and the electroluminescent material to produce a glow in the electroluminescent material visible through the light-transmitting outer surface layer. The switch may take the form of either (1) two resilient leaf-type contacts separated and restrained from engagement by a nonconductive pullout member or (2) a spring-biased contact restrained from engagement with a fixed contact by a fusible conductive wire.
THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to an illuminable ball which can be internally illuminated to permit its use in play in hours of darkness or where there is poor natural lighting. It is particularly well adapted for use as a golf ball, for which use it has been specifically designed, and Which is the preferred embodiment, but since it might be used in other types of balls, we do not intend to be limited to the specific embodiment described hereinafter.
Accordingly, it is a primary object of this invention to provide an illuminable game ball which will facilitate the playing of appropriate games and diversions during hours of and in areas of poor illumination. More particularly, it is an object of the invention to provide an illuminable ball which includes a self-contained power source and electroluminescent means to produce illumination when energized by the power source.
Attempts have heretofore been made to provide selfilluminable play balls of various types, including golf balls. So far as we know, none of such attempts has met with any success, particularly as to golf balls, which present serious problems created by the small size and weight of a regulation golf ball, its required resiliency and balance characteristics, and the large impact forces to which it is subjected in play. Consequently, it is a particular object of this invention to provide a golf ball which will meet all standard regulations for golf balls and yet which will be self-illuminable.
Another object of this invention is to provide such a ball which is easy to fabricate and inexpensive.
A further object of this invention is to provide such an illuminable ball having novel electrical connections be tween a self-contained energy or power source and the electroluminescent means. In the preferred construction, the novel electrical connections include a plurality of electrically conductive bands and relatively broad conductors engaging the electroluminescent means.
Since any self-contained power or energy source for such a ball must, of necessity, be of small size, it will also of necessity have a relatively short operating life. It is therefore very important, particularly in such a golf ball, to provide means whereby activation of the power source ICC can be initiated by the operator or player only at the inception of play. Consequently, another important object of this invention is to provide such a ball having switch means under the control of the operator or player for starting the operation of the power source.
A further object is to provide such an illuminable ball having an easily closed switch adjacent the outer surface thereof adapted to complete a circuit through the electroluminescent means.
Another object of this invention is to provide an illuminable ball having a self-contained oscillator and batteries therefor which are novelly arranged to provide fast assembly and security from the various shocks which may be received in normal usage of the ball.
According to a further object of this invention, electroluminescent means are provided in such a ball in a pattern which does not cover the entire ball.
Briefly stated, in the preferred embodiment such illuminable ball includes a hollow case having a plurality of apertures in the walls thereof, batteries disposed in the apertures, covering means surrounding the case and providing a light-transmitting outer surface for the ball, electroluminescent means within the covering means adjacent the outer surface of the ball, and circuit means for electrically connecting the batteries with the electroluminescent means. The circuit means preferably provides broad portions engaging the electroluminescent means and several conductive bands within the covering means. A switch is provided preferably adjacent the outer surface of the ball, to complete the circuit between the energy means and the electroluminescent material. The energy means includes at least one battery and an oscillator which preferably includes a transformer and a transistor to provide electrical oscillations. Thus, by closing the switch the electroluminescent material produces a glow which is visible to the player.
The invention, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference to the following description take in connection with the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is an enlarged, partially schematic, partially sectioned view of an illuminable golf ball embodying the teachings of the present invention the various ball layers being descriptively designated rather than cross-hatched;
FIG. 2 is a partially schematic detail showing one manner of connecting the electroluminescent means with a conductive band;
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 showing an alternate means for connecting the electroluminescent material with a conductive band;
FIG. 4 shows a preferred pattern for the electroluminescent material;
FIG. 5 is a circuit diagram of a preferred form for utilization in this invention; and
FIGS. 6 and 7 show schematically two different types of switches which may be alternatively utilized in the illuminable ball structure.
As shown in FIG. 1, an illuminable ball structure 11 includes an apertured hollow case 13 of an insulating material, preferably nylon. The hollow case 13 is generally spherical but has six evenly spaced generally flattened sides through which apertures 15 extend. Each of the apertures 15 carries a small battery or power source 17 which is secured therein in any suitable manner, such as by an adhesive. Six apertures 15 are provided because it is preferred to utilize six batteries in the electrical circuit and also because the six apertures 15 provide dynamic balancing to the ball without addition of counterweights. which serve no other useful function in the ball structure. It should be understood, however, that other numbers of apertures and batteries 17 may be provided in a suitably dynamically balanced ball structure. A small magnet 19 is preferably secured on one of the batteries 17 or on the hollow case 13 for a purpose which will 'be subsequently described.
A compact, inexpensive, rugged oscillator 21 having low heat output is secured within the hollow of the case 13 by any suitable means such as a potting compound which may be an epoxy or a resin. The oscillator 21 is described more fully hereinafter in connection with the discussion of FIG. 5. The batteries 17 are connected in series by a plurality of conductors 23 and a lead 25 connects one of the batteries to the oscillator 21. The conductors 23 and 25 may be painted on the surface of the batteries and the case 13 to form conductive layers. Silver paint has been found advantageous in performing this function. Two oscillator conductors 27 and 28 extend outwardly from the oscillator 21 and a battery conductor 29 extends outwardly from one of the batteries 17.
Several layers of insulating material provide covering means for the ball structure. Two hollow, preferably rubber, hemispheres 31 form a spherical shell 32 which encloses the case 13 and conforms to the contour thereof. Two conductive bands 33 and 35 are secured to and preferably completely surround the shell 32, and a broad piece of conductive material 37 is suitably provided on one of the hemispheres 31 as shown in FIG. 1. In lieu of the bands 33 and 35, two conductive layers appearing as large spots on the shell 32 may be used. The conductive bands 33 and 35 and the conductive material 37 may be conductive paint such as silver paint, conductive plastic such as a vinyl, conductive rubber, etc. The conductive bands 33 and 35 are positioned so that their position relative to the magnet 19 is known. Although the conductive bands 33 and 35 are shown as encircling the spherical shell 32 adjacent the middle thereof, it should be understood that the bands may encircle other portions thereof. The bands 33 and 35 should be sufficiently wide to permit easy location thereof.
The oscillator conductor 27 is suitably connected to the conductive band 33, the oscillator conductor 28 is suitably secured to the conductive material 37, and the battery conductor 29 is suitably secured to the conductive band 35. As shown in FIG. 1, the conductive material 37 preferably provides a relatively broad area contiguous the shell 32. A standard rubber golf ball wrapping 39 is applied in a generally spherical layer and a generally spherical plastic layer 41, such as polyethylene, is then applied in conventional fashion. The spherical plastic layer 41 may be applied by using two hollow hemispherical shells over the rubber wrapping 39 and heating that structure until the plastic hollow hemispheres form a unitary plastic layer 41.
Electroluminescent means 43 is then applied in a thin layer over the plastic layer 41. It is preferred that the electroluminescent means 43 not cover the entire surface of the plastic layer 41. The electroluminescent means 43 may assume the sine wave shape shown in FIG. 4 or other configurations which, for example, represent the trademark of a particular vender, may be used.
The electroluminescent means 43 (although shown as a single layer in FIG. 1) preferably includes a phosphor layer sandwiched between thin outer and inner conductive layers. The outer layer must be conductive on its inner surface, and capable of transmitting light. A thin tin oxide film or a vacuum-metalized material is preferred. The inner layer is preferably metallic but need not be capable of transmitting light. Such electroluminescent means is commercially available in sheet form. When an alternating current is applied across the electroluminescent means 43, the phosphor layer glows and such glow is visible through the light transmitting outer layer.
As seen in FIG. 2, a conductor 45 electrically connects one end of the inside of the electroluminescent means 43 to the conductive band 33. The band 33 which is covered by the layers 39 and 41 must be located before the conductor can 'be utilized. As indicated above, the position of the magnet 19 relative to the bands 33 and 35 is known. The magnet 19 may be located by utilizing magnetic material or another magnet and with this knowledge the position of the conductive bands may be ascertained. The conductor 45 is then formed by hypodermically injecting flowable conductive material between the electroluminescent means 43 and the conductive band 33. The flowable conductive material may be a conductive paint such as silver paint, epoxy filled with a conductive metal such as silver or copper, a conductive plastic such as a conductive vinyl, or conductive polymer. The fiowable conductive material may set up or harden to form a flexible but secure electrical connection between the inside of the electroluminescent means 43 and the conductive 'band 33.
Another electrical conductor 47 which is formed in a similar fashion connects the outside of the electroluminescent means 43 at the other end thereof to the conductive material 37. In locating the conductive material 37, a magnet similar to the magnet 19 may be used, or, by knowing the position of the conductive material relative to the magnet 19, the extra magnet will not be required. Thus, the conductor 45 connects to the inside surface of the electroluminescent means 43 and the conductor 47 connects to the outside surface of the electroluminescent means. Although hypodermically injected conductors are preferred, conventional conductors such as wire may be used.
FIG. 3 shows an alternative manner for improving the various hypodermically injected connections and particularly for connecting the electroluminescent means 43 to the conductive band 33. A staple 49, preferably of the conventional commercially available type, is forced through the layers 39 and 41 to connect electrically the electroluminescent means 43 and the conductive band 33. The staple, which is generally channel-shaped, provides broad surfaces contiguous the electroluminescent means 43 to improve electrical conductivity therebetween. The hypodermically injected conductor 45 surrounds the staple 49 to form a composite conductor 51 which further improves the conductivity.
Two other hypodermically injected conductors 53 and 55 connect the conductive bands 33 and 35 with two switch contacts 57 and 59 formed on the surface of the plastic layer 41. The contacts 57 and 59 which form fixed portions of a switch 60 are thin layers of conductive material positioned closely adjacent each other. A switch blade 61 which is normally spaced from the contacts 57 and 59 is provided. The switch blade 61 can, however, be forced into engagement with the two contacts 57 and 59 to complete the circuit to the electroluminescent means 43.
A plastic light transmitting outer layer 63 preferably of polyethylene forms an outer surface 65 and protects the electroluminescent material 43. Because the electroluminescent means 43 does not entirely cover the plastic layer 41, the latter may be bonded to the outer layer 63. The outer surface 65 may be formed with a plurality of indentations or inwardly extending dimples 67 to form a golf ball having the typical outer configuration.
With the ball thus assembled, the switch blade 61 may be only slightly exposed at the outer surface 65, the drawing having exaggerated this spacing. To use the golf ball, the switch blade 61 is forced through a portion of the outer layer 63 until it engages the contacts 57 and 59 and its outer surface is substantially flush with the outer surface 65. When in this position, the switch blade 61 completes an electrical circuit through the electroluminescent means 43. The electroluminescent means 43, being subjected to electrical oscillations from the oscillator 21, emits a glow or visible light which can be seen through the light transmitting outer layer 63.
FIG. 5 diagrammatically shows the electrical circuitry involved in the illuminable ball structure. In the specific embodiment illustrated, the oscillator 21 includes a transformer 69, a transistor 71, and a resistor 73, connected together as indicated in FIG. 5. An oscillator of this type is preferred because of its simplicity, low heat output, low cost of manufacture, and its ruggedness in being able to withstand blows which the ball structure 11 will receive in normal usage. A conductor 75 which may represent the battery conductor 29, the band 35, and the hypodermically injected conductor 55 connects one side of the battery to the contact 59 of a switch 77 which may, for example represent the switch 60. Another conductor 79 which includes the oscillator conductor 27, the conductive band 33, and the hypodermically injected conductor 53 connects the oscillator 21 to the contact 57 of the switch 77. In FIG. 5, a conductor 80 leads to the electroluminescent means 43 from the conductor 79 and includes the conductor 45 of FIG. 1. A conductor 81 which represents one of the oscillator conductors 28, the conductive material 37, and the conductor 47, connects the oscillator to the electroluminescent means 43. The electroluminescent means resembles a capacitor and accordingly, is given that designation in FIG. 5.
Other forms of switches are considered suitable for use with the ball structure of this invention and two of such forms are as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. In FIG. 6, two resilient leaf-type contacts 83 and 85 are separated by a nonconductive pullout member 87. The switch shown in FIG. 6 would be preferably positioned just inside the outer surface 65 and a portion of the pullout member 87 would be exposed at the outer surface 65. To energize the electroluminescent means 43, the player would pull the pull-out member 87 out of the ball structure to allow the two resilient leaf contacts 83 and 85 to move into engagement under the force of their own resilience. Preferentially, the two leaf-type contacts 83 and 85 would be provided in a chamber which would allow their movement into engagement with each other.
The alternative switch of FIG. 7 includes a small receptacle 89 carrying a fixed contact 91 and a spring contact 93 with the latter being under tension and out of engagement with the fixed contact by a fusible conductive wire 95. The ends of the fusible conductive wire 95 are exposed at the outer surface 65 and, when electrical current is passed therethrough, the fusible wire 95 will melt and allow the spring contact 93 to engage the fixed contact 91, thereby completing the circuit to the electroluminescent means 43.
The batteries 17 are preferably rechargeable and may be nickel-cadmium batteries. Recharging may be accomplished, for example, by extending a pair of conductors 97 (FIG. 5) from the terminals of the battery 17 to adjacent the inner surface of the light-transmitting outer layer 63 so they can be visually located. An external recharging apparatus including a pair of sharpened probes electrically connected at one end to a DC. source and capable of piercing the outer layer 63 to engage the conductors 97 may be utilized to recharge the batteries 17. Alternatively, by appropriately locating a pickup coil and a rectifier (not shown) in the circuit means within the ball, the batteries 17 may be recharged electromagnetical- 1y from an external source.
It is contemplated that with the golf ball constructed as described above, it will be dynamically balanced without the addition of any counterweights whatsoever. However, the use of counterweights when and if required is within the scope of this invention.
In the manufacture of the illuminable golf ball, the hollow case 13 may be either molded or machined to the described shape. The batteries 17 are inserted in the appropriate apertures in the case 13 and the appropriate electrical connections between the batteries 17 and the oscillator 21 are made as by painting a conductive material therebetween. Before the last battery is inserted into its aperture, the voids between the oscillator 21 and the interior of the case 13 are filled with a suitable epoxy 0r resin.
The two rubber hemispheres 31 to which the conductive bands 33 and 35 and the conductive material 37 may already have been applied are then fitted over the case 13 so that the position of the magnet 19 relative to the two conductive bands is known. The oscillator conductors 27 and 28 are then suitably connected to the conductive band 33 and to the conductive material 37, respectively, and the battery conductor 29 is suitably connected to the conductive band 35. This structure is then wrapped in a standard golf ball wrapping machine to apply the rubber wrapping 39 to hold the two hemispheres 31 together. Next the plastic or polyethylene layer 41 is applied by using two hemispherical shells of polyethylene positioned over the rubber wrapping 39 and heating the composite structure in a suitable mold until the polyethylene layer 41 becomes a unitary layer. A portion of the layer 41 is covered with the electroluminescent means 43, the layer being separated from the conductive bands 33 and 35 by electrical insulating material.
Next, by using a magnet or magnetic material, or by fluoroscopy, the conductive bands 33 and 35 and the conductive material 37, which are hidden by the wrapping 39 and the layer 41, are located and the conductors 45 and 47, together with the conductors 53 and 55 are hypodermically injected through the layer 41 and the wrapping 39. The hypodermically injected conductors may be injected either before or after the electroluminescent means 43 is applied. To prevent the conductor 47 from shortcircuiting the electroluminescent means 43, it may be desirable to take special precautions such as providing a patch of insulating material on the inner conductive layer of the electroluminescent means to insulate the conductor 47 from such inner layer. The conductive bands 33 and 35 and the conductive material 37 may also be located by use of a radioactive material with a very short half life in lieu of utilizing the magnet 19. These methods of positively locating the conductive bands 33 and 35 and other hidden conductive material without resort to trial and error procedures are exemplary of a generic concept labeled herein as systematic location.
If the staples 49 are to be used, one of such staples would be forced through the hypodermically injected conductor 45 to form the composite conductor 51, The electroluminescent means 43 and the contacts 57 and 59 may then be applied to the plastic layer 41, the conductor 45 connecting with the inner surface of the electroluminescent means and the conductor 47 connecting with the outer surface of the electroluminescent means 43. If desired, a staple may be added to augment the conductor 47 to provide a broad portion contiguous the outer surface of the electroluminescent means to improve contact therewith.
The ball structure is then covered with two polyethylene hemispherical shells and put into a spherical golf ball mold and heated to produce a golf ball having the outer layer 63 with the usual dimples 67 on the outer surface thereof. The switch blade 61 may then be driven an appropriate distance into the outer layer 63. If the switches of FIGS. 6 and 7 were used in the illuminable golf ball, the entire switch would preferably be positioned prior to application of the outer layer 63. To use the ball, the player merely closes the switch 60 to energize the electroluminescent means 43. The glowing ball is then ready for use.
Thus, the present invention provides an illuminable ball structure particularly adapted for use in dimly lit or dark areas. More particularly, a golf ball has been provided which substantially lengthens the hours of the day during which that game may be played and which also facilitates location of a ball which may have been hit into relatively inaccessible areas. The ball structure utilizes advantageous electrical connections and is constructed by a simple method which holds the cost of manufacturing to a minimum.
Many changes, modifications, and substitutions may be made by those having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

How to make a firmware like this
I was actually uploading a copy from my own computer obtained via exploit from bfielding's device, and I decided to try kies. The official package is a much better idea. Samsung Kies requires that you put in your model and serial, then it downloads the firmware in an encrypted package, extracts it, flashes it and deletes it. There's a short window where you can get in and grab the firmware.
Kies downloads to a temporary file called (in my case) C:\Users\Adam\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp####.tmp (where # is an integer less than 10). When the firmware is extracted, it goes into a new folder called C:\Users\Adam\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp####\. Yank that and put it on hotfile .

Click on the links below:
The Major William Anderson McTeer Camp No. 39, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War was Chartered in 2009, in Maryville, Tenn.
The Camp is named for Maj. William A. McTeer (1843-1925), who played an important role in the formation of Blount County. Besides being the first Judge of General Sessions, he held many other important positions in the community and at his church, New Providence Presbyterian. He also served as an officer in the Union Army during the Civil War and wrote a journal of his experiences, LOYAL MOUNTAINEERS. Of the eighteen men who joined the Union Army with McTeer, only five returned home after the War.
Soon after returning from battle, McTeer became a noted lawyer in Blount County. He was the first judge of the Court of General Sessions and also represented Blount County as a Legislator. McTeer later served as a Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Maryville City Recorder, a Trustee of Maryville College and numerous other high-level positions in the community.
An eloquent writer, McTeer penned the histories of both New Providence Church and Eusebia Church. He also wrote many articles for the local newspaper publications.

Senior Vice Commander Mike Downs will present the education as he portrays the experiences of his ancestor during the Civil War. We will install new members and will formally install new officers that were elected in December. And we will follow the official ritual for the meeting. Prospective members and the public are invited to attend. Let's get the word out as much as we can! It's a big room so we can host lots of members and guests. Wives and children might be interested as well.
Junior Vice Commander Steve Wallace suggested that our camp participate in the Civil War Encampment at the Thompson-Brown House which is across 321 from Blount Memorial Hospital that usually takes place the last weekend in April. We will put the exact date in next week's newsletter. We should put up our tent and provide information about our fraternal organization at what has been a well attended event.
Much discussion ensued around the big Blue & Gray Reunion and Jubilee to be held in Knoxville, TN from 30 April 2015 to 3 May 2015.
On 1 May 2015 there will be a Blue & Gray Dinner at the Convention Center in World's Fair Park starting at 7 PM. It would be great if we could have several members of our camp attend and those who have uniforms, wear them. Tickets are available through Brother George Lane.
On 2 May 2015 there is an all day Civil War Exposition at Krutch Park in downtown Knoxville. We will need to man an information tent. Brother George Lane, who will be conducting bus tours, will set up the tent and take it down. Commander David McReynolds will be there in the morning and Senior Vice Commander Mike Downs in the afternoon. We need more brothers to help out. A sign up list will be distributed closer to the date of the event.
On 3 May 2015 our camp will host the re-dedication of the Sultana Monument at Mount Olive Cemetery on Old Knoxville Highway. The event will start at 2 PM. Brother George Lane is attempting to arrange through the Blue & Gray event organizers a bus to bring attendees from downtown Knoxville to the cemetery for the event. We will be performing the official SUVCW ritual. Norman Shaw will present an educational program on the Sultana disaster. Brother Doug Fidler has arranged for a high school ROTC color guard, rifle team and bugler to participate. We have also invited a local boy scout troop to participate in uniform. We will need to set up tents and chairs earlier in the day. It was suggested that a local funeral home might donate this service for us.
Also on 1 May 2015 (at 10:30 AM subject to change), our camp will participate in a memorial ceremony commemorating the 75th anniversary of the death of Blount County's "Last Civil War Veteran" – Private Benjamin Franklin of the 1st United States Colored Heavy Artillery. The event will be held at Maple Grove Cemetery, 726 Dunlap Road – which is just off Lamar Alexander Parkway behind the Lone Oak Baptist Church. Brother Doug Fidler has also arranged for a high school ROTC color guard, rifle team and bugler to participate in this event as well.
We also set the date for our second quarter camp meeting – Monday, 22 June 2015, 6:30 PM at the Blount County Public Library in Maryville. We will need to have an educational program on tap for this meeting as well.
We also discussed the formation of an Auxiliary for our camp. Commander David McReynolds provided information to Treasurer Bob Wallace to take to his spouse, Chloe Wallace, who along with Commander McReynolds's spouse, Cindy, have expressed interest in leading the effort. Remember wives and daughters would be eligible and associate memberships are available for an auxiliary just like for the camp itself. Hopefully there will be enough interest for us to act upon this at either our March or June meeting.

There's a Yiddish website called ivelt.com, where members congregate and talk
about all kinds of things. The variety of forums range from genealogy to
business.While I speak a fluent Yiddish, it is not exactly a website up
my alley.About a year ago, I was giving my first-ever major seminar in
the Yiddish language. (Yes, there is actually a thriving market for Yiddish in
this day and age. In fact, there's an entire ecosystem of Yiddish-speaking
haredi Jews who are hungry for all sorts of products and services.) Anyway, when
the Yiddish-language media reported about the upcoming seminar, someone notified
me that there was a thread on ivelt.com entitled, "Is Rebbe Issamar a scam?" So,
of course, I visited the site. I found all kinds of differing opinions from an
entire community of people who did not know me but who discussed me as if they
were my best friend. One person actually claimed that I was a son of a certain
rebbe who shares my last name, which I'm not.Another correctly figured
out who my father-in-law is. It was fascinating and enlightening to read! Much
of the forum discussion was centered around the admission fee of $350 per person
and the advertised "money-back satisfaction guarantee." Would the guarantee
truly be honored if someone asked for their money back? (Of course.) One person
wrote in the thread, "OK, I've signed up for the event. I'll let you all know
how it went – and if it isn't all its promised to be, I won't be ashamed, and
I'll ask for my $350 back! And you'd bet they will honor my request for a
refund... or else!" Instead of ignoring the thread, my seminar co-presenter and
host of the Kol Mevaser Yiddish-language business show, Lou Landau, and I did
the polar opposite. We emailed his mailing list of thousands of Yiddish speakers
a link to the thread – and showed them that we were enthusiastic about the free
publicity that they were sending our way and that we were ready for the
challenge.Later at the event I was standing on stage just as we were
about to begin, when I had a brainstorm.I quickly made a rough seating
chart of the hall and asked each attendee: "Please share with us why you came
and tell us what your biggest business challenge is." As each attendee shared
what industry they were in and what they hoped to accomplish, I jotted notes
down on each one.When someone said something out of the ordinary, we
immediately gave them an insight or technique they could use. That wowed the
crowd with insights that were laser sharp and on target for each
business.But beyond that, if the anonymous, skeptical poster from the
ivelt forum was in the room, he was no longer simply watching a show as an
observer. Rather, he was engaged with me one on one, on a personal
level.Five hours later, when the seminar was done, I knew that Lou and I
had truly over-delivered. The same way that bestselling authors can't help but
read the book reviews on Amazon.com, I went back to ivelt.com to see what he
would write for his review of the seminar.The entire thread had been
deleted.Since then, when the audience and time constraints allow it, I
try to begin my talks by asking everyone in the audience to introduce
themselves. The interaction level is much enhanced, and there is a palpable
difference in audience awareness and participation – even when I'm speaking to
college students who are attending involuntarily and on little sleep! Why does
it work? It works because people want to be engaged. They want to be recognized,
valued and appreciated.They want to be heard and seen. If you can do
that, even for only one minute per person, you will change the entire mood and
energy of the room.Don't just take my word for it. Practice it at your
next staff meeting or even at the dinner table. Look everyone in the eye and
smile and ask them to share their biggest challenge of the week. Listen
carefully and respond with warmth, empathy and answers, if you have them. Then
watch how the mood changes. Practice in small groups, and when the time comes to
speak to a larger group, it will be easy and even more effective.Many
times when someone challenges or doubts you, all they really want is to be
acknowledged. When you show them respect and acknowledge them and their
concerns, you often make friends and clients from someone who otherwise might
have been seen as a threat.I'm giving another seminar in New York in
about two months time. I can't wait to see what the forum posters will say while
they give the event free publicity...email@example.com Issamar

Looking for something different for your Lamborghini Gallardo ? Why not head into Germany ? In Ahlen you'll be able to have your 'standard' Gallardo, if there even is such a thing, transformed into a special Edo Competition version ...
A few numbers perhaps ?
Max. Horsepower : 550 Bhp (404 kW) at 7800 rpm
Max. torque : 540 Nm at 4500 rpm
Top speed : 328 Km/h
0 - 100 Km/h : 4.2 sec
0 - 200 Km/h : 12.5 sec
Those are some pretty impressive digits when comparing to the factory Gallardo with 500 Bhp and 510 Nm reaching a top speed of 315 Km/h, this Edo Competition version even 'shaves' a full two seconds off of the 0 - 200 Km/h time ...
Those figures have their origin in some finely tuned parts that are mounted on this 'personal' Gallardo, the 50 Bhp increase comes from a special '100 Cells sport' catalytic convertor, a Carbon Fiber air-box on the engine and some fine modification of the electronics controlling the V10 engine.
The Gallardo Edo Competition features large 19 inch wheels with 235/35 ZR 19 at the front and 295/30 ZR 19 Pirelli P Zero's at the rear, these custom wheels are finished in black and have the Edo Competition scripting done color coded to the car ... and they also have a tire pressure system installed to keep you from driving these magnificent rims with a flat !
The car is lowered about 15mm with a special suspension kit, and to get the car to a standstill if needed you now have 8 caliper, 365mm discs at the front and 4 caliper, 335mm discs at the rear, with ABS and ESP naturally ... not everyone is a race driver right ?
On the outside there are also some tinted turn signal lenses and the rear diffuser is color coded to the rest of the bodywork ... not added spoilers or wide whee larches on the Edo Competition Gallardo, just some mild touches here and there are all it took to create a one of a kind Lamborghini.
A really nice option is the fact that you can actually control the sound (or loudness) of the exhaust system with a button inside the car ... how does that sound to you ?
If all this sounds like a good idea to personalize your own Gallardo, or you just want to know more about this 'orange' Lamborghini, contact Edo Competition.

The reading public is torn now. There is the undeniable convenience of e-books, downloaded at the click of a button; and you can load dozens of them onto one small lightweight device. But who can deny the pleasure of unplugging completely from technology and enjoying a print book at a cafe, at the beach or on a comfortable sofa? You can write in the margins, feel the crisp pages in your fingers and lend it out to friends so easily. So which is your preference? Are you an e-book fanatic or sticking with print? Or do you go both ways and like them both depending on the situation?

Two questions about existing cast iron tub in remodel
We are gutting and replacing our 1960's 5x7 "master" bath in 2 weeks. The only thing we've been planning to keep is the cast iron tub because it's really in good shape in the interior.
However, there is a line of rust between the apron and the ledge (I included a photo below - it's difficult to see but you can tell there's a dark link on the side of the tub - that's the rusted area).
I bought Bar Keeper's Friend, but the rust is more than a stain, it's built up. Does anyone have an idea of how I can try to remove the rust in this tight spot?
My second question is about the drain and overflow - can I or should I replace these since the walls will be out?
We are buying all materials and the contractor is doing the labor. I haven't asked him this question and don't know if it might be a code requirement as well???
Any advice is appreciated.
That's a replace the tub issue. You aren't going to be able to "fix" that. Even if you used naval jelly to remove it, you'd still have a bare iron spot that would rust again unless porcelain coated. No one porcelain coats anymore. You could take a chance and just epoxy coat it after removing the rust, but that's a BIG chance to take that it won't return. The rest of your bath would already be nice and new and now you can't replace the tub without ripping all of that out. Replace it now while all of the other destruction is going on.
Hi albryant, it's hard to see from a distance, but is that a 2 piece tub? If the rest of the tub is in great shape, you could try this:
Take a piece of course sandpaper, say 80 grit, and fold it. Use the folded edge to sand down the rust in the groove. Then mask off above and below the line, and spray Rustoleum rusty metal primer and then white finish coat.
Thanks Pinkmountain and Ship. I discussed it again with the contractor and he thinks it's worth trying to refinish it and is referring us to someone he knows who he feels does a good job.
Ship - yes - I think it's a 2-peice tub! I've never seen such a thing anywhere else, but it really looks like there is a gap between the sections. I'm interested to see what the whole thing looks like when the tile and walls are torn out. That may change our minds.

Kids try to catch the Cardinal at Lakes Area Endurance (w/video)
A thunderstorm and the threat of more rain didn't spoil the fun at the Lakes Area Endurance runs in Alexandria Friday and Saturday.
Sponsored by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, the races began Friday night with a One-Mile Family Fun Run where children were encouraged to catch a runner dressed in Cardinal suit. A 5K race also took place. A heavy downpour before the races led to a short delay but the runners stayed dry, dodging the puddles.

Pete Anderson
Guitar man Pete Anderson's brand of original blues is thoroughly contemporary and deeply imbued with the brawny heritage of his native Detroit. Anderson is also an acutely self-possessed perfectionist, yet those qualities never detract from the stunning musicality with which he has long distinguished himself. No ham-fisted bar-band blues rocker he; every song is a study in elegant, spontaneous combustion, at once earthy and emotionally desperate but put across with an intoxicating combination of impeccable technique and soulful involvement. You can hear this cat once a week for two months straight (he also gigs every Monday at Burbank's Moose Lodge), and he'll never play a song the same way twice. This kind of elevated musical kapow is exactly what we all need more of.

Members of the Big Bear community gathered in Long Beach this past weekend, to celebrate the life of Bear Valley Unified's first principal, Tom Sanchez, who passed away on July 24. Tom Sanchez and wife Jean were both teachers in Big Bear and, in fact, Tom began teaching at Big Bear High School when it was still part of the Victor Valley Union High School District. Sanchez taught science, math and band, while also coaching baseball, at BBHS from 1950 through 1958. When BVUSD was first established in 1958, he was named principal; from 1964 to 1978, he assumed an administrative role with the district, ultimately serving as Assistant Superintendent during his 28 years in Big Bear education. Science facilities at the new Big Bear High School, which opened on Maple Lane in 1985, were dedicated to Sanchez whose four children, Tommy, Diane, Craig and Sandie, all graduated from BBHS.

Special Guest Author This Week
Gordon Mackay has written a brilliant - and free - article for us this week, "An Introduction to MOSe." Gordon runs GordonMac.com, where he provides tutorials, smart templates, and many other wonderful geek-related things that you should check out at your earliest convenience. MOSe means "Mozilla, Opera and Safari enhancement" and Gordon will lead you through creating a form that will take advantage of the rendering capabilities of those browsers. The final effect is a beautiful form that really stands apart from most forms you see on the web.
Please Check Your Privacy At The Door
IDScan, a British company, has come up with an ID tool for nightclubs called Clubscan. The ID-checker at the door would take your ID and run it through Clubscan to verify your age. It checks your ID against a database of passports, driver's licenses, and national ID cards from "Europe, the US, Australia, the Middle East, and the Far East." If that already has your big-brother radar doing loop-dee-loops you may not like the fact that Clubscan can also burn your ID to a CD if needed. Engadget.com agrees that this ID-checking solution may be a bit overboard.
For This Internet Explorer Developer, The Thrill is Gone
Scott Berkun helped develop Internet Explorer versions one through five, mainly working on the user interface. He was passionate about improving the web user's experience through better browsing. Back in December of 2004, he wrote a good essay in his blog about what he thought made for a better browser. To his credit, Berkun didn't tout IE as the best browser to ever exist. But times change, and now Berkun is saying - again through his blog - that he does in fact have a favorite browser, and it is... Firefox. Read why Berkun digs FF so much on his blog. You may find the many replies to his revelation interesting as well.
But Internet Explorer is Learning...
Internet Explorer 7 will have a few improvements over its predecessors, not the least of which will be support of OpenSearch, which is currently used to great effect in Amazon's A9 search engine. WebProNews.com points out several reasons why this is a good move for Microsoft, and one that benefits everybody - except for Google, that is.
And Let's Not Forget About Opera
Opera has been the favorite browser of a lot of users out there, but it has never caught on in the way that Firefox has. Part of what has held it back from fame is the distracting ads it sported, and the price you had to pay to get rid of those ads. For anyone who thought they'd like to try Opera if it got rid of the ads and became free, your time has come. Opera has ditched the ads, and their browser is completely free, unless you want support.

Google Begins Testing Free WiFi
When Google started snapping up unused fiber-optic connections last month, it sparked rumors that Google was thinking of trying their hand at offering WiFi service to the public. So far, Google is still officially mum, but has planted seeds of information here and there. An obvious clue is on their website, in the form of the Google Secure Access tool, which they also have an FAQ for. Google states that they are only testing WiFi in spots close to their corporate headquarters, but they also sponsor a free WiFi hotspot at Union Square in San Francisco. Most folks believe this is just a precursor to Google coming out with WiFi service, and they're probably right, considering that this would enable Google to pinpoint advertising on their website based on the user's location. More information on this at Yahoo.com.
If You Like Your iPod So Much, Take It To Your Wedding!
That's what some people are doing: Using an iPod instead of a DJ at your wedding may become the next big thing. With the ability to easily access a huge number of songs, it's much simpler to get your best man (let's call him "Melvin") to just pump out tunes on an iPod than to get a professional to bring their rig out and pretend to enjoy themselves. While IndieBride.com recommends sticking to numbers like "Whip It" and "YMCA", we uh... don't. Read more about getting married with your iPod at News.com.

This Should Fuel Kids Nightmares For Years
Italy has long been known as a producer of some of the world's finest artists, creating beautiful art on canvas as well as in architectural design. Every once in a while, it's good to shake up perceptions. A Vienesse art group called Gelatin has constructed a 200 foot long giant, pink bunny rabbit on the side of a mountain in Italy. The artists say they would like people to climb up and fall asleep on the rabbit's stomach. Art... go figure. Read more at the Guardian.

Rotating Images with Dreamweaver and JavaScript [FREE]
Slideshow, rotating images, image-a-go-go, whatever you want to call it, a client will ask for an image or banner to swap out with another image (or more than one), and continue swapping every so often. With Dreamweaver it's pretty easy to throw together some scripting that will accomplish just that for your client. Dreamweaver does most of the heavy lifting, and all you need to do is to paste in a little bit of code, set the images you want to display, how long you want the interval between image swaps to be and your all ready to send the invoice. Right, yes you did read that you'd be doing a bit of work up there, but don't worry, once you have this technique down it can take you as little as 20 seconds to get this going.
How Inline Elements Work - Part Four
In this, the fourth tutorial in our series, we continue with inline elements by looking at some CSS properties that directly modify the appearance of the text glyphs themselves. The font-style, font-variant, and text-transform properties are ones that most coders may not be very familiar with, but they can be useful when the need arises. We'll cover what they're supposed to do, and then look at practical applications and any potential problems with browser implementation. Onward!

A CSS Web Design Case Study: Constructing a Personal Site - Design Comp Construction [FREE]
So far in the case study of building my personal site, you've seen how I planned my web site and came up with ideas for its design. In this article, you'll see how I turned that sketch into a design comp using Fireworks MX 2004 and a bit of Freehand MX. Because this article is meant to help you understand the design process rather than the specific design techniques I used, it will not go into the technical details of how I completed every task. So, I won't bore you with every click I made in Fireworks, but you will learn how to set up your comps in a web instead of print mentality, so that when it comes time to actually build the pages, you won't tear your hair out trying to create a design that isn't well suited to its medium.
Flash Capabilities Detection: Part 2 - Frame Rate
In this article you will learn how to detect a user's frame rate capabilities. Frame rate detection is helpful in determining whether or not the user will be able to playback content as intended. Often you can use frame rate detection in order to provide the user with the optimal content specifically designed to playback at their frame rate capabilities. This article looks at both SWF timeline frame rate and FLV frame rate detection.
