OFPP to issue final guidance on 'inherently governmental'
Friday - 9/9/2011, 12:34pm EDT
By Jason
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
After more than a year, the Office of Federal Procurement Policy is giving agencies final guidance for what jobs must be done by government employees and how to treat work that is considered closely associated to inherently government and critical functions.
OFPP will issue the final policy letter for those jobs in Monday's Federal Register. Federal News Radio obtained a copy of the final policy letter. OMB previously issued the draft letter in March 2010.
"Today marks an important milestone in an effort that began with the President's March 2009 memorandum on government contracting in which he called on us to clarify line between functions that cannot or should not be outsourced and those that may be subject to private sector performance," said Dan Gordon, OFPP administrator, during a conference call with reporters Friday. "The final policy letter is largely similar to draft we issued last year. You will not see a document where you look at it and say, 'Whoa, this is totally new.' There are significant changes we have made."
The policy letter makes eight changes to how agencies previously treated inherently government. It is effective Oct. 12.
For instance, starting with the name of the policy letter, OFPP changed it to "Performance and Management of Inherently Governmental and Critical Functions," instead of "Work Reserved for Performance by Federal Government Employees."
Gordon said the final letter keeps the definition of inherently governmental the same as what's in the Federal Activities Inventory Reform (FAIR) Act. He said the comments OFPP received were mostly in favor of staying with the existing definition.
OFPP expands and clarifies what jobs should be done by federal officials:
- All combat
- Security operations in certain situations connected
with combat or potential combat
- Determination of an offer's price reasonableness
- Final determinations about a contractor's performance,
including approving award fee determinations or past
performance evaluations and taking action based on those
- Selection of grant and cooperative agreement recipients
Gordon said the new list of inherently governmental positions is about 90-to-95 percent the same as the previous one in the Federal Acquisition Regulations.
"The final version does clarify the inherently governmental status of several particular functions where there has been a lot of confusion and sometimes controversy about the role of contractors," he said. "In particular, the discussion in the final version, which is new from the draft, about security operations, in a nutshell, what you will see there is our saying that when you are talking about security operations that are either part of combat or likely to evolve into combat, you cannot be using contractors."
Additionally, OFPP provides agencies with another list of functions closely associated with inherently governmental work.
"Federal acquisitions that include conducting market research, developing inputs for independent government cost estimates, drafting the price negotiations memorandum and collecting information, performing an analysis or making a recommendation for a proposed performance rating to assist the agency in determining its evaluation of a contractor's performance," the final policy letter states.
Agencies also will be provided a list of comprehensive responsibilities for functions closely associated with inherently governmental functions to analyze when they are deciding how to classify the functions.
"Caution that, in many cases, functions include multiple activities that may be of a different nature — some activities within a function may be inherently governmental, some may be closely associated, and some may be neither — and by evaluating work at the activity level, an agency may be able to more easily differentiate tasks within a function that may be performed only by federal employees from those tasks that can be performed by either federal employees or contractors," the letter states. Gordon said the final policy letter no longer separates closely associated and critical functions.
"We got public comments that said it was confusing to have that separate category," he said. "So as a result, in final version, we treat it really only as a management issue. If a function is closely associated to an inherently governmental one, the government needs to be sure there isn't mission creep, that the contractor doesn't expand their work into what would be inherently governmental."
OFPP wants agencies to define what are critical and closely associated functions and assess whether they are overly dependent on contractors in these areas. Agencies already had to do this assessment, but the policy letter calls for them to continue to pay attention to these functions.
Gordon said when agencies did their initial analysis they found mission creep in areas such as acquisition management and technology services.

FASHION lovers now have a reason to stay home and watch television every Friday as Project Runway Malaysia premieres next month.
Adapted from the highly successful reality series that hit America a few years ago, 8TV is now giving all imaginative and talented local designers a chance to carve their careers with the localised version aimed at discovering the next big fashion designer and launch the winner's career.
Stepping in the shoes of Project Runway's prolific model host and judge is local supermodel and thespian Bernie Chan while famous celebrity stylist Peter Lum takes on the role of the facilitator filled by Tim Gunn in the original version.
Heading the panel of judges is no other than our very own fashion designer guru Datuk Bernard Chandran, editor of EH! Asiah Mion, editor of Female Seema Viswanathan, chief editor of Glam and EH! Wirda Adnan and managing editor of Female, Marie Claire, Men's Health, and Seventeen, Aster Lim.
The winner of this series has to be more than creative and talented. One has to be good with their skills, the clothes they make must be aesthetically pleasing, flexible when adapting to clients taste, willing to take risks when creating new innovation with art and a positive attitude to complement the personality - a feat that is not easy to achieve at all, Bernard said.
Other big names in the industry, which will also appear throughout the series as guest judges include Tom Abang Saufi, Edmunser, Melinda Looi, Sonny Son and Jaclyn Victor.
With fashion as spectacle, favourite designers are too numerous to mention whereas only the 'true' designers who do have the special qualities and skills remain on today's top list. With this series, 8TV is proud to be able to provide this platform, 8TV general manager of brand management group Airin Zainul said.
The 15 competitors will take on the role of a designer and depending on the assignments, they will be given a set budget and to finish each design within a limited time frame.
Weekly challenges vary, where the designers must either work individually or collaborate in teams.
Once completed, the designers must dress and style their models for the judging process on the runway.
These models are also in the competition, as every designer that is eliminated each week the assigned model will also be eliminated.
In addition to the lucrative RM100,000 cash prize, the grand-prize winner will also receive a development fund and retail space courtesy of Parkson Corporation. Other sponsors of the show are Poh Kong and L'Oreal.
Project Runway Malaysia will premiere on 8TV on Aug 3 and will on every Friday at 9.30pm.

Should I be concerned about osteonecrosis of the jaw?
The drugs Fosomax, Actonel, Boniva and Reclast, which are called bisphosphonate drugs have been associated with a new, newly recognized condition, called osteonecrosis of the jaw.
Now let me say right now, immediately, that I think the risk of this condition in somebody on one of these drugs for osteoporosis is extremely low.
What we've found was that people who were getting intravenous drugs like Reclast in very high doses monthly, or every couple of months, for a different condition, namely cancer,
that had spread to bone, where these drugs are very helpful in making the bone resist the cancer. Those patients, a small percentage of them, develop osteonecrosis of the jaw.
In the osteoporosis treatment side, this is really very, very unusual. Now, what is osteonecrosis of the jaw? The jawbone is a very active bone. It's what we call turning over itself frequently.
It's replenishing itself and renewing itself all the time because the jaw is very close to the mouth and the mouth is full of bacteria.
So the jawbone has to be able to fight off bacteria that you know, might sneak in through the gum.
If you give frequent infusions of an intravenous member of this class of drugs, it's going to love to go right to bone. So a certain amount of the drug goes right to bone in the jaw,
and it may reduce the ability of the jawbone to what we call turn over. Now, if you then go and have a tooth pulled and a piece of the bone is now exposed,
you've pulled the tooth out, the bone is exposed literally to the air. Sometimes that bone has more trouble healing and it winds up getting infected by the bacteria in the mouth.
The problem is in the bone, but it, it's something that can lead to an open wound. Some people can have this happen if they have a cancer situation typically, even without a tooth extraction,
maybe during an implant procedure. It doesn't happen if you have your teeth cleaned.
It doesn't happen if you have a cavity fixed, but it's most commonly going to happen when the bone is exposed for some reason and it just doesn't heal well.
When it was first happening, nobody knew what it was or what to do for it. I think today, the oral surgeons are much, much better at dealing with it and in the osteoporosis population,
we think it probably happens, but it's not very common. So it's the old story of what are the risks and what are the benefits of the drug.
If you're at significant risk for breaking bones and you can reduce that risk by about half, which is what these drugs do,
that benefit overwhelmingly outweighs the very, very small risk of having osteonecrosis of the jaw.
And I think that as we understand osteonecrosis of the jaw better, we're going to find out that there are probably other things in the people who get that,
that are going to tell us that those are people we have to be especially careful in.

This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/132,682 filed Apr. 25, 2002 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,014,078 entitled Container and incorporated herein by reference, which is a continuation-in part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/006,985 filed Dec. 5, 2001 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,036,693 entitled Paint Container, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates generally to the field of containers and more specifically a container for the distribution, sale, and use of paint.
Typically, paint for application to a house or building for both interior and exterior applications is sold in a cylindrical one gallon metal container. The metal container includes a round base and a cylindrical side wall attached to and extending from the base. The side wall terminates in an upper rim or chime having a u-shaped channel that frictionally receives and engages a plug or lid having a downwardly extending u-shaped annular ring that is frictionally engaged by the walls of the u-shaped channel.
The lid of a conventional paint container is removed by prying the annular ring out of the channel. This is accomplished by using a lever between an outer upper edge of the cylinder and the outer edge of the lid. In order to ensure that the lid does not fall off of the container, the interference/friction fit between the annular ring of the lid and the u-shaped channel of the container is sufficient to require the use of tools to remove the lid. Accordingly, a lever such as a screwdriver is used to pry the lid off of the upper rim by using the edge of the side wall as a fulcrum to apply sufficient force to the outer edge of the lid to remove the annular ring form the u-shaped channel. Depending on the amount of friction that must be overcome, a user usually has to apply pressure at a number of points about the circumference of the lid and container. The repeated insertion of the lever may result in damage to the lid or the coating on the inner surface of the metal lid that is intended to prevent rust or contamination of the paint.
The paint may be poured from the container into a tray or other smaller container to be used by the painter to apply the paint to the intended surface either by brush, pad, roller or other mechanical or electrical system. Almost any time paint is poured, paint drips down the outside of the cylindrical wall and covers any identifying label. If the drips are significant, the paint may streak down the outer edge of the cylindrical wall and drip to the supporting surface that the paint container has been placed on. In any event, a certain amount of paint will be trapped within the u-shaped annular ring of the upper edge of the cylindrical side wall.
When the lid is placed back onto the top of the container, the downwardly extending unshaped ring on the lid will be soiled by the paint in the annular receiving area of the cylindrical wall. This creates a potential problem the next time the lid is removed and placed on a supporting surface. The paint on the annular surface may soil the surface upon which the paint lid rests or the hands of the user when they replace the lid again after use. If latex paint is in the container then the latex may dry in the channel and act as an adhesive between the lid and container making subsequent removal of the lid more difficult. The dried paint in the channel may prevent an air tight seal as result of paint buildup preventing the lid from being fully seated within the channel. Further, paint trapped in the channel may be splattered about the room when the lid is replaced and the trapped paint will likely spill over the edge and streak down the side of the container.
Additionally, if the can itself is used as the container from which a brush is dipped by the painter, a significant amount of paint will accumulate in the channel as the brush is removed and excess paint is wiped against the edge of the can. Further, the inner annular edge of the container channel makes it difficult to uniformly wipe paint off of the brush. This results in an uneven application of paint on the brush and on the surface to be painted.
Further the cylindrical container provides other disadvantages in the shipping, display and handling of the container by the end user. First, since the containers are round, the area between the cans represents wasted space when the container are shipped from the factory to the retail outlet. This wasted space must be paid for in terms of shipping costs. Similarly, shelf space at the retail outlet is wasted by the area between the cans. Since the cans are cylindrical, the label must also be cylindrical and therefore does not present the ideal display surface for the consumer at the retail outlet. As the consumer typically walks down the isle, the customer views the container at an angle which reveals only a portion of the label. Many display shelves also permit more than one can to be stacked in a front to back fashion. The cylindrical shape also limits the number of rows of cans that may be stacked on a display shelf.
The handle of the typical paint container is a thin curved wire member comprised of a 0.105 gauge material that digs into the user's hand under the weight of the paint and the container. It is difficult to carry more than one paint container in each hand utilizing the curved wire. Additionally, the curved wire handle requires handle pivot or "ear" supports to be added to the outer surface of the cylindrical can. These pivot supports add assembly and material costs to the container. The pivot supports further affect how the containers must be packed for shipping and for display. Since the pivot supports extend outward from the container, additional space between products or placement such that the pivot supports are in the "dead" space zone between the containers is required.
The cylindrical paint can does not provide a surface to support a paint brush. In order to balance a paint brush on the open container, the brush must be supported by two points on the outer lip. This is most easily accomplished with the bristles balanced at one point and the ferrule or handle balanced at another point. As discussed above, paint often collects in the channel of the container resulting in the ferrule or handle being soiled. Alternatively, if the channel does not contain paint, the placement of the bristles on the edge of the container will likely result in paint dripping into the channel and/or on to the edge of the container, which will likely soil the ferrule or handle if the ferrule or handle is subsequently placed on the soiled region.
Paint that falls into the channel also presents a problem when the lid is being secured to the container after use. The paint in the channel is forced out of the channel as the annular ring of the lid is being located into the channel. Unless the lid is covered, the paint in the channel will splatter about the room as the lid is securely attached to the container. This result is due to the fact that the lid must be fully seated within the channel and a significant force is required. Typically a rubber mallet is used and the lid is struck a number of times with significant force.
Another problem with the existing paint container is that if the paint is shaken in the container with the lid securely attached, the underside of the lid will become covered with paint and becomes difficult to handle when it is removed from the container.
From the foregoing, it would be desirable to provide a paint container that would minimize shipping costs and permit a maximum number of containers to be stacked on a retail outlet shelf per linear foot of display. It would be further desirable to provide a product and method for displaying a paint product that allows for non-curved labeling. It would be desirable to provide a container that must be positioned correctly on the shelf, and is not easily rotated to a position that makes it difficult for a consumer to see the label. Another feature that would be desirable is a container system that facilitates stacking the containers one in front of the other.
It would also be desirable to provide a container having a paint reclamation pouring mechanism in order to maintain a clean work area. It would also be desirable to provide a paint container that eliminates the need for handle supports or ears on the cylinder. It would also be desirable to provide a handle that is easy for the user to use and does not cut into the user's hand. Additionally, it would be desirable to provide a container with a lid that also serves as a paint container. It would still further be desirable to provide a lid that may be attached securely onto the container without the need for tools. It would also be desirable to provide a container with a spout that provides for a brush to be inserted into the container and includes a non-curved edge to provide for even wiping of the brush. It would also be desirable to provide a container that does not permanently dent when dropped or hit. It would also be desirable to provide secure surfaces for a container having one or more of the foregoing features to be employed in shaker equipment, to mix and or shake the paint. It would be desirable to provide a paint container with the foregoing features alone or in any combination.
An exemplary embodiment relates to a paint container. The paint container includes a top, a bottom, a substantially flat side wall and at least a second side wall connected to the first side wall. A handle is pivotally attached to the body proximate the top and having a recess adjacent the flat side wall. A finger recess is disposed in the bottom and an access recess is positioned between the bottom and at least one side wall. A user may insert one or more fingers through the access recess and into the finger recess to grasp the body when the body is resting on a flat surface.
Another embodiment relates to a pour spout for a paint container. The pour spout includes an outer wall, and an inner wall defining a reclamation channel between the inner wall and the outer wall. A flange extends from the inner wall having a wiping edge configured to remove paint from a paint brush.
A further embodiment relates to a paint container having a body with a top and a bottom surface. A handle is pivotally coupled to the body an includes tabs extending toward each other, the handle having an extended use position and a retracted rest position. A cap is configured to seal an aperture in the body, the cap extending upwardly from the top, the cap having a surface portion parallel to the bottom support surface defining an apex height. The handle in the rest position has a handle surface at the apex height and no portion of the body extends upwardly to a position greater than the apex height. Another embodiment provides a handle including a center portion having a top surface and a varied region projecting from the top surface and offset from a center of the center portion, and the bottom including a support surface configured to contact a portion of the top surface, the support surface configured including a recess configured to receive a varied region of a second container.
A still further embodiment relates to a method of mixing paint in a paint container. The method includes the steps of providing a plastic paint container having a planar top surface and a planar bottom surface, wherein the top surface and the bottom surface are parallel. Further steps include providing paint in the plastic paint container, providing a paint mixing machine having a support surface and a compression surface, and placing the bottom surface onto the support surface. Further steps include securing the paint container between the support surface and the compression surface and mixing the paint by agitating the container with the paint mixing machine.
In another embodiment, a container includes body having a first side with a substantially flat portion, and an opposing curved side. A pour spout is proximate the curved side and a handle is pivotally attached to the body, having a resting position adjacent the first side.
Alternative exemplary embodiments relate to other features and combinations of features as may be generally recited in the claims.
Referring to
Body 12, includes a recessed region 38 that extends across the front wall 22, the side walls 26, 28 and a portion of the curved back wall 24. The recessed region 38 may receive a label that could be applied during the forming operation such as in the mold, or a label may be affixed to the container after the container has been formed.
Body 12 further includes a first hand or top recess 40 located on the top edge of the container between the front wall 12 and the top 30. Top recess 40 enables a user to easily access the handle 14 when the handle 14 is in a first or rest position adjacent the top 30. A user can easily raise the handle 14 by simply sliding his or her hand within the recess under handle 14. The top recess 40 may be fully covered by the handle 14 on the top of the container as illustrated in
A second hand or bottom recess 42 is located on the bottom edge of the container between the front wall 12 and the bottom 20. The bottom or access recess 42 allows a user to reach under the bottom 20 of the container 10 while the container is resting on a supporting surface. The bottom recess 42 further facilitates pouring paint from the container. The bottom recess 42 is connected to a finger recess 44 via channel 46 on the bottom 20 of the container. The finger recess 44 allows a user to insert his or her fingers into the recess 44 to provide support for pouring paint from the container in combination with handle 14. Additionally, the height of the bottom recess 42 and channel 46 as measured from a supporting surface may be sufficient to allow a user to insert his or her fingers in the finger recess 44 while the container is on the support surface. This would aid in pulling a container off of the support surface or off of a lower container where the containers were stacked.
Land 32 includes a pair of recess openings 48 to receive a pair of tabs 50 on handle 14. Of course land 32 could include tabs that would be received in apertures located in the handle 14. The tabs and apertures allow the handle 14 to pivot about the land from the rest position to a carrying position or intermediate pouring position. Other mechanical fastening structures that are know in the art may also be employed. Additionally, a snap in feature that releasably locks the handle 14 in the rest or in use position may be helpful to ensure the handle does not move. The snap or lock feature may be accomplished by irregular geometry of the handle tabs and land apertures, or any other known means for securing a handle in specific position relative to the container.
The bottom 20 further includes additional recesses 52, 54 to provide structural rigidity to the container. The recesses 52 and finger recess 44 extend into the container. The geometry of the recesses 52 should be such that a user can still access the paint on the inside of the container with a brush. The spaces between the recesses 44 and 52 should be sufficient to allow a user to access the paint between the resulting raised areas with a brush. The recesses may also be constructed to permit a top to bottom nesting feature with an adjacent stacked container. The bottom 20 also includes an outer periphery 56 that defines a plane that is parallel with the top of the cap 16 and top of the handle 14 for use in a compression type mixing apparatus. The portions 58 between the recesses 44, 52 and 54 are in the same plane as the periphery 56 to provide additional support for the container.
Handle 14 includes a top surface 60, a front surface 62, a rear surface 64, and a pair of opposing side surfaces 66, 68. When the handle 14 is in the rest position, the front and side surfaces 62, 66 and 68 are flush with the upper portion of the body. The handle may include a soft raised portion 69 that may be molded into the top surface 60 of the handle 14. The handle 14 includes a lower contour 70 that substantially follows the contour of the land 32 and upper portion of the body 12.
As illustrated in
The use of an inner wall 76 and outer wall 80 allows the cap to be used as a paint dish without the paint soiling the threads of the container, or dripping paint on to the outside of the body when the cap is secured to the body after it has been used as a container. Since the inner wall 76 extends beyond the outer wall, any paint that drips out of the cap when the cap is secured to the container will drip directly into the container. Additionally, any paint that drips into the channel 82 between the inner wall 76 and outer wall 72 will drip into the container between inner wall 76 and the spout insert 18.
The spout insert 18 includes an outer lip 84 that rests on the top rim 86 of the neck 34 of the body 12. Insert 18 is secured to the body 12 by either an adhesive, friction fit, welding, or any other method known in the art. Insert includes an outer wall 88 and an inner wall 90 that includes a spout 92. In one embodiment spout 92 extends upward above the outer lip 84 of the outer wall 88. Spout 92 includes a "v" shaped recess with a circular recess 93 at the bottom portion of the "v". Insert 18 includes an angled floor 94 connecting the inner wall 90 ad outer wall 88. Floor 94 is angled downward from the rear wall 92 of the body and "v" region of the spout 92 toward the front wall 26 of the body 12. Other spout configurations may also be employed. For example the shape of the spout recess could be a shape other than a "v" shape. The recess could be "U" shaped or rectangular. Alternatively, the spout could not include a recess portion at all but rather the spout could extend toward a single apex, where the apex is the highest of the spout and the paint is guided to pour over the apex.
A channel 96 is formed between the inner wall 90, and outer wall 88. The angled floor 94 includes an opening 96 to connect the channel 96 with the interior of the container, to permit paint that drips over spout 92 to be reclaimed into the container via opening 96.
Insert 18 also includes a raised wipe portion 98 terminating in a straight edge 100. The raised wipe portion 98 extends from the inner wall 90 into the opening 102 defined by the inner wall 98 and the straight edge 100 of the wiper portion 98. The angle of the wipe potion 98 allows for reclamation of paint back into the container if the paint drips onto the top portion 99 of the wipe portion 98. In one embodiment the opening 102 has a diameter of three and one half inches, allowing for easy insertion of a three inch brush. The straight edge has a width of at least three inches to permit the brush to be wiped along straight edge 100 without curving the bristles. It is possible to replace the straight edge with a comb or undulated edge feature. It is also contemplated that a comb feature could be releasably attached to the raised wipe portion to provide another type of wiping edge geometry if desired. The geometry of the opening 102 may be modified to allow for a larger or smaller brush width to enter the interior of the container to apply paint to a brush. For example the opening could be four inches or greater to allow for a four inch brush to be inserted.
The "D" shape of the container allows for a convenient curved rear surface over which the paint is poured, and a substantially straight rear surface to allow for a label having a flat surface to be applied. The flat surface permits easier viewing of the label on the store shelf for the consumer. If the front of the container with the flat surface is facing the isle, the consumer can easily pick up the container by using both the handle 14 and the bottom finger recess 44 through recess 42 and channel 46 as discussed above. The curved rear surface guides the paint toward the spout 92 aiding in the removal of the last portion of paint in the container.
The cap 16 is easily removed both in the retail outlet for easy tinting and at home or on the job site without requiring additional tools. Once the tinting coloring has been added the cap is screwed back on to the body of the container such that the top of the cap and the top surface of the handle are in the same plane. Since the top surface of the handle and cap are in a plane parallel to the button supporting surface, the paint in the container can then be mixed utilizing a standard mixing apparatus where the top and bottom of the container is trapped and compressed between two surfaces and subsequently shaken. The surface area of the handle and cap provide a stable surface for this type of compression apparatus. The container may employ other geometry to ensure that the container may be securely located in a compression type mixer. The mixer itself could employ a top member that matches the profile of the top of the container including the handle and cap. The container, cap and/or handle could include raised features to permit the top member of the mixer to effectively clamp onto the container for mixing.
The geometry of the body facilitates access to the paint, once the level of paint drops. Since the recess 42, channel 44 and finger recess 46 protrude into the interior of the container a greater amount than recesses 52 and 54, a greater amount of paint will be in the region directly below the opening 102 to facilitate removal of the paint from the bottom of the container. Additionally, curved portion of the back wall 24 focuses the last amount of paint in a single area proximate the spout 92, when the paint is being poured from the container.
The container may also include features to promote stacking of the container. For example, the container may include four small bumps on the bottom periphery that would act as feet and interlocking features with structure on the top of the container. For example, the top of the container could include four small indents that would receive the bumps, or the bumps could be restrained from moving in a lateral direction by four offset guides. Of course there could be more or less than four locating features. Additionally, any locating feature could be arranged such that there is no impediment form sliding an upper stacked container off of a lower stacked container, by having the rear portion of the guides open. The raised portion or bumps could also be located on the top of the container and the recess or guides be located on the bottom of the container. The bumps could also be flexible such that they would be resiliently deflected when the container is clamped in a paint mixer that clamps the container on the top and bottom.
Turning now to an other embodiment illustrated in
Top 130 also includes a first land region 136 proximate the neck 132, a second angled transitional region 138 and an upper region 140 configured to support handle first region proximate. Land region 136 may be flat or parallel to a horizontal plane as illustrated or may have another profile. Adjacent sides 126, 128 and top 130 is a pair of handle support regions 142 that begin lower than first land region 136 and angle upward to transition region 138 and upper region 140. Region 142 as measured from a vertical plane in one embodiment is preferably about 45 degrees. Additionally, a back handle support region 144 as described below supports handle 116 in a rearward position closer to spout 118. Back handle support region 144 as measured from a vertical plane is preferably about 60 degrees. The angle of support region in combination with the size of handle 116 prohibits handle 116 from contacting spout 116 or the rear portion of body 112, and still providing clearance over the cap 114 to lift the handle. Accordingly, other angles of region 144 may be used.
Body 12 also includes a recessed region 146 that extends across the substantially flat front wall 122 and around at least a portion of the curved back wall 124. Recessed region 146 may receive a label that could be applied during the forming operation such as in-mold labeling for a plastic formed component. A label may also be applied to the container after the container has been formed.
A front edge 148 of upper support region 140 may be curved or beveled as a transition into front wall 122. This transition edge 148 provides an easy surface for a user to be able to grasp handle 116. While the front edge 148 may have a recessed region permitting a user to slide his fingers under the handle, handle 116 may also include a handle recess 150 either in addition to a recess on the edge 148 or independent of such a recess. A disruption in the interface between handle 116 and the top 130 and front wall 122 allows a user to easily grasp and raise handle 116.
A bottom recess 152 is located on the bottom edge of the container between the front wall 122 and the bottom 120. Bottom recess allows a user to reach under the bottom of the container 110 while the container is resting on a supporting surface or on another container 110. Bottom recess 152 further facilitates pouring paint from the container. Bottom recess 152 is connected to a finger recess or well 154 extending inwardly into container 110 from bottom 120. Finger recess 154 may be located immediately proximate bottom recess 152 or may be connected to bottom recess 152 with a recess channel 156. The bottom recess 152, recess channel 156 and finger recess 154 may be configured to comfortably rest on a users hand to aid the user in pouring the content from the container. As shown in
The height of the bottom recess 152 as measured from a support surface of the container, or as measured from the lowest support features on the bottom 120 may be sufficient to allow a user to insert his fingers or portion of his finger in the bottom recess and/or channel recess and/or finger recess. This would allow a user in combination with the handle to easily lift the container from a support surface such as a retail outlet shelf, table or another container.
Bottom 120 includes a cap recess 158 configured to receive a portion of cap 114 when like container 110 are stacked on one another. Cap recess 158 may include a periphery having matching features as cap 114 such as indentations to match the recesses 159 on cap 114. Alternatively, cap recess 158 may have an outer diameter that matches or exceeds the outer diameter of cap 114.
Body 112 includes a pair of handle recesses 160 extending into handle support wall 162 adjacent first region 136 and support region 142. Handle recesses 160 receive a pair of trunnions or tabs 164 extending inwardly from handle 116. Of course, container 110 may include a pair of tabs extending outwardly that would be received within a pair of recesses on the handle 116. The tabs and aperture allow the handle 116 to pivot from a first rest position in which the handle 116 is proximate front wall 122 (See
Referring to
Referring to
In one preferred embodiment, the clearance between a center region of handle 116 proximate handle recess 150 and support recess 182 and the top of cap 114 is one inch when handle 116 is substantially vertical as illustrated in
The width of handle support regions 142 and 144 are at least as wide as handle 116 so that the outer periphery of handle 116 does not extend beyond the outer periphery of body 112. Similarly, the pivot connection of handle 116 is located such that the front surface 172 of handle 116 does not extend beyond front wall 122.
Handle 116 further includes two raised tabs 190 that have the same height from bottom 120 as does the top of cap 114, when the cap 114 is threadably attached to the neck of the body. The bottom 120 includes two stacking recesses 192 configured to receive the tab 190 of handle 116. The provides a positive locator for stacked containers as well as stability to the stacked containers 110. Tabs 190 extend in both the cross container direction and fore/aft direction resulting in a positive location in both directions. However, the tabs 190 and/or recesses 192 could be configured to constrain the stacked container in a single direction.
Referring to
The upper edge 194 includes a first region proximate apex 200 and two straight planar portions 204 extending in a "v" shape away from the first region. The straight portions 204 serve as a brush wipe to wipe excess paint off of a brush. One of the two straight portions may be a solid continuous line, while, as shown in
Cap 114 serves both as a cover and a paint dish. Cap 114 includes a downwardly extending wall extending from the top 206 of cap 114 and extends between the inner and outer walls 196, 198 of spout 118. Cap 114 further includes an outer wall 208 having internal threads that threadably engage the outer threads 134 of neck 132. Cap 114 may also include an indentation or recess on the top of the cap that receives a molded in logo and/or a dab of paint allowing the user to identify the color of the paint by the color of the dab of paint on the lid. The dab of paint could be on a white or colored sticker placed in the recess or detente on the top of the cap. In one embodiment the diameter of the cap is four inches and includes a plurality of detents or undulations to permit a user to easily grip and rotate the cap. In one embodiment the cap diameter is four inches.
Further modifications may be made in the design, arrangement and combination of the elements without departing from the scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims For example a top member including one or more of the features discussed above such as the spout, reclamation structure, paint brush support, cap support, and others may be integrally formed with the body member or may be fastened to the container as a separate component. Additionally, the container may include transparent areas to allow the user to see the contents of the container. Further the cap attachment may include a transparent area to indicate whether the cap is securely attached to the container to prevent paint from accidentally being spilled. Although the container has been referred to as a paint container other liquids may be stored and poured as well. While some of the features have a unique application to the storage and application of paint, other features may be used for other liquids as well. Additionally, the label that is applied to the container may include a blank white portion to permit the user or manufacture to dab or paint an sample of the paint in the container to clearly show what color is contained within the container and how it will appear when painted on a white background. It is also noted that the features described in the specification and shown in the Figures either alone or in combination may also be combined with individual or multiple features disclosed herein or in the priority applications noted above. These and other modifications may be made in the design, arrangement and combination of the elements without departing from the scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.

Kooba Jonnie Shoulder

It's between this and the Kooba Leroy. This bag is smaller, more compact and easier for me to carry than the crossbody style of the Leroy. However, despite the magnetic snap closure, the contents of my bag fall out every time this bag falls over, which is every time is isn't being carried by me. Not at all practical for being in a city. If this had a top zipper to secure the contents, it would be great. In addition, the kangaroo zipper pocket is substantially smaller than on the Leroy, so I can't carry as much in it (like my wallet, so I don't lose it when the Johnnie invariably tips over). If Johnnie had a top zip and a larger pocket it would be the bag for me.

Very disappointed. I finally caved in and bought this bag only to discover the leather (black) was thin. For the price I expected more. I did however love the style and size. Zappos shipped very quick. Happy with their service.

Just received the Kooba Jonnie Shoulder in black--it's my first Kooba bag. Of many! I adore this bag. It's a great mid-zize bag, easy to carry and stays nicely on my shoulder. When I hold it by the handle and let it dangle with my arm straight it doesn't touch the ground. The black leather is GORGEOUS. Lovely and soft. The maroon-leather contrast handles make this bag so unique and cool. I would have liked a slighter lighter lining color, so I can easily find things, but the bag's not so deep; I don't think that'll be a problem. The lining color--sort of a violet gray--is beautiful. I may not use the front magnetic pocket, but since I love the style and design of the bag overall, I don't mind the slight impracticality of it. Love it. I used it immediately and felt special. Classic black bag. Can be dressed up or down. I will enjoy this forever. :)

SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. -- Spokane Valley Sheriff s deputies found methamphetamine inside a man s ice cream container during a traffic stop Friday night.
A deputy pulled over Steven Fitch, 60, on S. Havana for a traffic stop at 10:45 p.m. Authorities said Fitch did not have a valid driver s license.
While the deputy was checking Fitch s driving status in his patrol car, he saw Fitch reaching down toward the center console in his car. The deputy ordered Fitch out of the car because he was concerned for his own safety.
The deputy saw Fitch s hands were covered in a white creamy substance and saw a quart of ice cream in the center console. Officials said a small plastic baggie was found in the ice cream. The baggie contained methamphetamine.
Authorities said Fitch tried to convince the deputy that he had no idea how the meth got into his ice cream.
Fitch was booked into jail for Possession of a Controlled Substance, methamphetamine, Driving While suspended and two other infractions.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Armed Forces will improve its security weaknesses and enforcement lapses in the Eastern Sabah Security Zone (Esszone) to prevent intrusions and crimes, said Armed Forces chief Tan Sri Zulkifeli Mohd Zin.
"There are weaknesses. Do not think there are no challenges within ourselves," he told reporters after receiving a RM200,000 sponsorship for the Malaysian Armed Forces Hockey Association here yesterday.
He was commenting on Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein's statement that corruption and leakages were among the causes of continued intrusions in the coastal waters off Sabah and it was unfair to just blame weaknesses of assets.
In Kota Kinabalu, Malaysian Anti Crime Foundation vice chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye said increased intelligence gathering and encouraging "whistle blowing" would be among the effective measures in combating graft among security personnel guarding Sabah's intrusion-prone east coast.
Commenting on the same issue, he said the increased intelligence would enable authorities to identify those involved in any form of corruption.
"Getting those in the know to point out who is doing what will also help tackle the situation," he said adding that the problem was likely to be confined to a few black sheep.
This problem must be addressed as matters concerning the safety and security of our nation must never be compromised," Lee added.
He said investigations had shown that Sabah's security had been compromised by corruption and leaking of vital information by irresponsible parties.
On a different issue, Lee who is also the National Institute of Occupational Safety Health (NIOSH) chairman said statistics showed that workplaces were becoming safer but getting there was becoming more hazardous.
He said the number of accidents at the workplace had declined by about 30% over the past 10 years but this had been offset with a 30% increase in commuting mishaps, usually involving motorcyclists.
"All too often it is caused by a lack of concentration while on the road. There have been cases of motorcyclists texting while riding their bikes. This is inviting trouble," Lee said.
He said NIOSH was prepared to work with the Road Safety Department and the Social Security Organisation (Socso) to organise more road safety awareness programmes for workers.

The 7th installment of 'Fast and Furious' will hit theaters in April 2015, but a week earlier than previously planned.
Universal Pictures recently declared that they have shifted the release date for the racing franchise as it would help booking more international play dates, the Hollywood Reporter reported.
The film, which will be helmed by James Wan, was earlier slated for a summer 2014 release which had been postponed due actor Paul Walker's tragic car accident in November 2013.
The movie will see the 40-year-old late actor, Vin Diesel, and Dwayne Johnson, along with Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges, Elsa Pataky and Lucas Black, and will also star Jason Statham, Djimon Hounsou, Tony Jaa, Ronda Rousey and Kurt Russell.

Israel Apartheid Week: A Tale of Two Brothers
Posted By David Solway On March 1, 2013 @ 12:25 am In Daily Mailer,FrontPage | 26 Comments
[1]Driving past the University of Toronto recently, I noticed a lone protestor on the perimeter of the campus carrying a sign objecting to Israel Apartheid Week. I was reminded that the University of Toronto was the first academic institution to host and promote the scandal of this event. Beginning in 2004 under the interim presidency of Frank Iacobucci, who does not seem to have realized the ignominy he had countenanced, the contagion spread to many other academic cesspools across Canada, the U.S. and Europe. The University of Toronto, however, is the revered patriarch of the movement. Iacobucci was succeeded in November 2005 by the current president, David Naylor, under whose administration this academic canard has persisted into the present moment—the festival of anti-Semitic hatred and anti-Zionist calumny will unfurl the Palestinian flag and welcome a contingent of bigoted speakers on March 4.
When questioned by the Friends of the Simon Wiesenthal Center [2] for Holocaust [3] Studies about his university's compliance with so evidently corrupt and defamatory a spectacle, Naylor declared [4] that "We do, in fact, recognize that the term Israeli Apartheid is upsetting to many people, [but] we also recognize that, in every society, universities have a unique role to provide a safe venue for highly charged discourse." Naylor's recognition that the term is "upsetting" is entirely frivolous, unbefitting a university president. The fact is that the term is totally false—a given that appears to have escaped Naylor's attention rather conveniently, thus sparing him the moral duty to confront so spurious a conviction. Further, universities are not always—or even primarily—known for furnishing such "safe venues," especially when the speakers are unpopular conservative figures.
A few typical episodes will suffice to corroborate the point. A riot [5] incited by pro-Palestinian activists erupted when Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu was invited to speak at Concordia University in Montreal, causing extensive damage and injury and forcing cancelation of the event. Jewish students at York University in Toronto required police protection when threatened [6] by a swarm of Muslim students. Ann Coulter's talk at the University of Ottawa was shut down [7] by a horde of howling students and a craven administration. Author Warren Farrell's address [8] on behalf of a men's rights organization, the Canadian Association for Equality (CAFE), held at Naylor's own university, proceeded amidst obscene verbal abuse and palpable menace while police stood idly around. Israel's ambassador to the U.S., Michael Oren, was disrupted [9] and shouted down by unruly Muslim and left-wing students at the University of California at Irvine. David Horowitz, founder of the Freedom Center, is accompanied by a bodyguard [10] when he lectures at American universities. The beat—and the beating—goes on.
The disingenuousness of Naylor's claim regarding "every society" is revealed if we glance at the Arab world, where no "safe venue" is remotely in evidence. Consider inviting a politically controversial or Jewish speaker to Al-Azhar University in Cairo, or Umm Al-Qura University in Mecca, or the Islamic University of Lebanon where the Academy's "unique role to provide a safe venue for highly charged discourse" is about as viable as, well, a Canadian or American university president showing a sliver of moral courage or cerebral acuity.
One does not like to cast disparaging phrases and sentiments around indiscriminately, but I cannot refrain from viewing David Naylor (no differently from his likeminded peers, as it should go without saying) as a disgrace to his calling. Nor can I help speculating that the refusal to intervene, or what amounts to the de facto advocacy we remark in the U of T president, runs in the family. His brother, R.T. Naylor, a professor at McGill University in Montreal, is the former director of the piquantly named American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee and the author of many tendentious books on political and economic subjects. The Naylors' partiality to Islamic causes may be fractionally explained by a Middle Eastern genealogy, as M.J. Stone implies in a favorable review [11] of the Montreal Naylor's work in the pro-Nazi [12] Vanguard News Network Forum, in which he does not fail to mention the Naylor "family roots in Lebanon."
R. T. Naylor intrigues me not least because we shared a publisher for a time, McGill-Queen's University Press, for which I no longer write. Naylor, I must confess, is one of the most turgid and clottingly indigestible writers I have ever suffered reading, but one book in particular merits investigating for the kind of anti-American, anti-Israeli, pro-Muslim bafflegab littering the Left/Islamic scene today, an illustration of what David Horowitz has aptly called "the unholy alliance [13]" busy at its insidious work. I refer to Naylor's Satanic Purses [14], a screed filled with reams of presumably hard economic data arguing that the war on terror is largely deceptive and feeds off a hoodwinked public in order to advance various entrenched interests. The atrocious titular pun on Salman Rushdie's major novel, The Satanic Verses [15], is enough to extradite the author's intellectual repute. Not only does the title betoken an adolescent attempt to seem clever and with-it, but ironically also recalls the fatwa on Rushdie issuing from the very Islamic world that Naylor extols and justifies.
Once inured to the battery of putative "information," it requires only a few pages for the reader to recognize that the writing is vitiated by a sophomoric snideness, operating in the vein of pseudo-mockery and alluding tongue-in-cheek, to take just a couple of examples, to the presumed "regime of brooding Islamic fanatics" in Sudan or the "gang of misanthropic miscreants" in Taliban Afghanistan. These groups are meant to be understood as the inventions of unscrupulous neoconservative agents like George W. Bush and his Republican backers or of the "machinations of the pro-Israel lobby." It is the latter, we are given to understand, who comprise the brooding fanatics and misanthropic miscreants.
But when Naylor goes on to define al-Qaeda as "largely a law-enforcement fable akin to the Mafia myth," we know we are witnessing a slick polemical shell game, for the Mafia is no myth and its global reach has been amply documented. For Naylor, the United States is the real Evil Empire, Israel and its American-Jewish supporters are the devil's deputies, Hamas is a world-class charity, the Oslo Accords were sabotaged by the Israelis, radical Islam is basically innocent and is only reacting to "Western meddling in the Islamic world," jihad does not mean Holy War (shades of John Brennan), the American government seeks "to demonize Muslims worldwide," (utter nonsense under Obama, but also under Bush), the international banking infrastructure is "a global espionage apparatus," and so on ad vomitatum.
When, in an interview with Counterpunch [16], Naylor speaks of Jewish fundamentalist "charities" sponsoring terrorist groups and of Christian fundamentalist proselytizing which "may well provoke further acts of terrorism," asserts that Israel is engaged in a "policy of mass murder," torture and theft, and contends that the main resource of Middle Eastern countries "is not oil [but] their émigré population, well-educated and for the most part anxious to go home," there can be little doubt that we are observing a polemical farce of histrionic proportions, turning reality upside-down, accusing a straw man of the crimes and transgressions committed by one's own fraternal constituency, and whitewashing a frankly violent, parasitic and Caliphate-aspiring Islamic world.
As Stone put it in the above-cited puff job, "A culmination of thirty years' work as a historian, criminologist and expert in international political economy, Naylor described Satanic Purses as counterpoint to post 9/11 propaganda. 'It brings together my expertise in finance, politics, and both Middle Eastern and North American history as it relates to the deeply embedded prejudices against Muslims and Arabs that have existed in the West since the time of the crusades.'" Shades of the increasingly discredited Edward Said. Naylor then goes to bat for Hamas and Hezbollah, describing both terrorist organizations, according to Stone, as "having important social and humanitarian mandates" and being compelled to react "to Israeli atrocities."
Candidly speaking, it isn't far from one Naylor's approval of Hamas and Hezbollah and condemnation of (fictive) Israeli iniquities to another Naylor's seemingly serene acquiescence in eight years' worth, now, of Israel Apartheid Week hate fests on the campus he oversees. There is nothing unique about the brothers' species of advocacy, whether passive like the Toronto Naylor's or aggressive like the Montreal Naylor's. Together they offer a paradigm for the migration and sedimenting of radical ideas, via a composite passive-aggressive mentality indicated by a sibling dynamic of permission and attack. There is a symbiotic relation in play here, as one approach lends institutional respectability to the hypothetical scholarship of the other—and vice versa.
The brothers are therefore influential in different but kindred fashions, one through the latent concession of misconstrued authority and the other through the manifest thrust of false argumentation. Moreover, it clearly signals how academic elitism and ostensible intellectual sophistication have succeeded in skewing the genuine terms of debate and have reconditioned violent aggressors as plaintive belligerents. There is not much to choose between wrong thinking and abject pusillanimity.
The placard borne by the lone protestor on the University of Toronto campus read: Israeli Jihad Apartheid Week. No balls to flog. The second statement may be a trifle bizarre and ambiguous, but it is more easily understandable than the pliant and accommodationist positions adopted by the representative Naylors.

Only 2 options missing; 1) the ability to turn the service off. 2) the option to hide the notification bar icon. Btw -the frequency that the 90% warning shows up is a little annoying. Having an option that wld allow you to set how many warnings per 1,2,3, or 5% increments after 80, 85, 90 or 95% usage, would be really ace;-)

After so many apps regard data manager, finally the only apps (From my point of view) with the icon (With figure - coming soon?) shown in notification bar bring to us from you. My opinion to 5 star. -Percentage of usage in figure show beside the icon -Quantity of usage : xxx/Remain show beside the icon -customized warning as mentioned by others. Looks forward your next update.
