Scott Interrante, who hosts our podcast Pop Unmuted, contacted me to adapt the Pop Unmuted Tumblr theme for his new podcast. Are We Even Friends? is a podcast hosted by two real-life friends, Scott Interrante and Emily Cottone, who discuss the popular sitcom Friends with twice-weekly podcasts focusing on two episodes per recording. Like the Pop Unmuted theme, the site for Are We Even Friends? is responsive and includes outgoing links to subscribe to the podcast on iTunes and follow on Twitter.
Building bridges between music, web development, and social media.
Lyric websites have been a staple of music-related search results since the start of the millenium, but the format of presenting lyrics on many of these sites has remained mainly the same since their inception: plain text with no supplementary information or interactivity. Perhaps the most notable innovator in the genre is Genius — formerly known as Rap Genius, the site's sidebar annotations now extend to multiple genres and even outside the music sphere to news and entertainment, and infrastructure to help "annotate any page on the Internet" is currently in beta. Google recently began showing lyrics in their search result pages as part of their Knowledge Graph, but beyond requiring a click through to the song available for purchase in their Google Play store for access to the full lyrics, their method of displaying lyrics is no more advanced. Even despite sidebar-comment approaches similar to Genius in other industries, including notes on content platform Medium and annotations on Quartz articles, most lyrics-dedicated sites have been stagnant and unimaginative.

About White Night Melbourne
White Night Melbourne is a State Government of Victoria initiative created by the Victorian Major Events Company, and produced by White Night Melbourne Productions. The original concept for White Night (Nuit Blanche) was conceived in Paris in 2002, in a bid to make art and culture accessible to large audiences within public spaces. Paris' Nuit Blanche has inspired an international network of White Night events in over 20 cities globally, with each city moulding the event to reflect its unique passions and characteristics.
The first event of its kind in Australia, White Night Melbourne joined the ranks of these global cities on Saturday 23 February 2013. White Night Melbourne returned for its second year on Saturday 22 February 2014, increasing in popularity and quickly becoming Australia's most celebrated major cultural event. A hallmark addition to Victoria's Major Events Strategy, White Night Melbourne returned for a third year on Saturday 20 February 2015.
As Australia's international city of artistic innovation, Melbourne embraced this unique opportunity to showcase local and international artists and provide a platform for their work.

I just wanted to let you know about your exceptional customer service. My daughter needed boots with a steel toe and steel shank, as she will be spending her "spring break" in New Orleans, assisting with the relief efforts next week. After searching stores in town for 2 days, I finally located the boots on your site. Your customer service person confirmed they were in stock, took the order over the phone, and then made sure they got shipped. Our boots arrived on Tuesday! Now that is what I call "customer service"! Thanks again to WorkingPerson.com."

My present invention relates to a drill chuck and, more particularly, to a drill chuck for percussion drilling or hammer-drill applications.
In my U.S. Pat. No. 4,272,087, I describe a drill chuck having a chuck body connected to a drill spindle connectible to the drive of a hammer or percussion drill capable of rotating the chuck while imparting axial blows to the chuck and a tool (i.e. a drill bit) held therein.
The chuck body accommodates a holding fixture for clamping one drill bit between jaws which are movable via a tightening ring connected to an adjusting sleeve.
The sleeve is provided with a toothed skirt which is engageable by a locking member so that no unintentional rotational movement of the sleeve relative to the chuck body in loosening direction is possible and thus an undesired unlocking of the chuck is prevented. In order to allow a loosening of the drill bit, the sleeve cooperates with a loosening ring which acts on the locking member to disengage the latter from the toothed skirt.
In such drill chucks, dirt tends to accumulate in the interior and constitutes a potential and substantial danger of contamination for the chuck, especially during overhead drilling since, in this case, the detritus drops directly downwardly between the jaws into the holding fixture of the chuck and eventually causes a deterioration of the functional properties of the chuck. It thus becomes necessary to disassemble and clean the chuck, a process which is cumbersome, time consuming and usually requires the expertise of a specialist.
It is thus the principal object of my present invention to provide an improved drill chuck obviating the drawbacks of prior art drill chucks.
Another and more specific object is to provide a self-clearing chuck, especially for hammer or percussion drills, whereby detritus accumulation is precluded.
Yet a further object is to provide a chuck which cannot be rendered inoperative by accumulated detritus and which therefore has an especially long useful life.
These objects are realized, according to my invention, by providing between the jaw tightening sleeve and the chuck body with at least one detritus-ejecting channel which leads to the holder bore retaining the tool (i.e. a hammer-drilling bit). The channel communicates with an annular space defined between the chuck body and tightening means cooperating with the holding means to tighten or loosen the implement. In order to allow a transport of dirt towards the outside, the tightening means are provided with discharge openings which communicate with the annular space and extend to the outside.
Through the provision of such a modified chuck, dirt accumulated during drilling and penetrating to the holding means is immediately discharged through centrifugal force through the channels and the annular space and eventually through the discharge openings to the outside. Consequently, the dirt is prevented from being collected in the drill chuck and from penetrating between parts of the chuck moving or movable with respect to each other.
According to a further feature of the invention, the chuck body defines a through-passage in elongation of which the holding means being provided whereby the channels extend from the annular space and lead to the holding means immediately next to the axial through-passage. Consequently, an accumulation of dirt in front of the end portion of the spindle which end portion constitutes a head which can impact upon the drill bit, and a penetration of dirt between the head of the spindle and the drill bit within the axial through-passage is prevented.
In a preferred embodiment, the channels formed within the chuck body and connecting the annular space with the holding means extend to the rear portion of the chuck at an open acute angle with respect to the chuck axis. This embodiment is in particular advantageous during overhead drilling since the dirt is transported outwardly and downwardly through the thus slopingly extending channels so that the discharge of the dirt is not only obtained by centrifugal forces but also enhanced through the effect of gravity. It is preferred to provide the annular space as well as the discharge openings in such a manner that they extend also downwardly so that the gravity supports the discharge of the dirt during an overhead drilling therethrough.
Accordingly, in order to provide the discharge openings in the preferred manner, the tightening means includes an adjusting sleeve which surrounds the chuck body at a distance therefrom and has an innerside provided with a toothed skirt having a plurality of teeth whereby gaps between adjacent teeth form a part of the discharge openings. In addition, the tightening means includes a loosening ring which is arranged coaxially above the adjusting sleeve and is provided with a plurality of indentations at its periphery so that interstices are defined between the loosening ring and the surrounded chuck body. These interstices are in alignment with respective gaps of the toothed skirt and form another part of the discharge openings.
Preferably, the loosening ring is axially aligned with the adjusting sleeve and the interstices extend over the entire height of the loosening ring in order to allow connection with the outside.
FIG. 1 is an axial section through a chuck according to the invention;
FIG. 2 is a larger-scale section through the chuck taken along line II--II of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a larger-scale section through the chuck taken along line III--III of FIG. 1.
FIG. 1 shows a chuck 2 including a chuck body 4 which is provided with a through-passage 60 along the chuck axis 30. In the through-passage 60, a spindle 1 of a hammer drill or the like can be mounted for driving rotatably and applying axial impact to the chuck 2 and thus the chuck body 4. By means of a spherical ball or a cylindrical pin 3, the chuck body 4 is keyed to the spindle 1 in a rotation-fixed manner, however, a displacement of the chuck body 4 along the spindle 1 in axial direction is still possible.
Accommodated within the chuck body 4 in elongation of the through-passage 60 is a tool holding fixture socket or bore 5 for a respective implement or tool such as a hammer or percussion drill bit (not shown).
The tool holding fixture 5 cooperates with a plurality of jaws 6--usually three--for retaining the drill bit. The jaws 6 are guided within respective grooves 9 provided within the chuck body 4 and inclined at an acute angle relative to the axis 30. Along a major portion, each jaw 6 has an array of teeth 10 which is in engagement with an internal thread 11 of a tightening ring 12. The ring 12 is rotatably mounted on the chuck body 4 and is actuated by a chuck key 13 in order to move the jaws radially toward each other and axially away from spindle 1 when the drill bit is to be tightly clamped or radially apart and axially toward spindle 1 in case it is required to loosen the drill bit.
For providing the simultaneous movement of the jaws 6 within the associated grooves 9, the standard key 13 has a pinion 15 which cooperates with a serration or crown gear 16 of the ring 12 and is provided with a guide pin 14 projecting from the pinion 15 and insertable into a radially extending blind hole 31 in the chuck body 4. Consequently, by inserting the guide pin 14 of the key 13 into the blind hole 31 and engaging the pinion 15 with the serration 16, the jaws 6 can be moved within the grooves 9 to tighten and to loosen the drill bit.
When using the drill as a percussion drill, the striking action of the spindle 1 is transmitted via its end portion 1a which operates as an impact head onto the drill bit which is retained in the tool holding fixture 5 between the jaws 6. For preventing the striking action of the spindle 1 upon the drill bit from being transmitted directly to the chuck 2, the chuck body 4 is slightly movable along the spindle 1 in both axial directions and is resiliently supported by respective elastic rings 7.1, 7.2 against a collar 8 of the spindle 1.
The tightening ring 12 is connected to a locking mechanism 18a provided to prevent an undesired unlocking of the chuck. For assembling reasons, the ring 12 is made of two parts which are kept together by an actuating sleeve 17. The locking mechanism 18a includes a toothed skirt 18 arranged at an upper portion of the sleeve 17. The toothed skirt 18 extends coaxially to the axis 30 and cooperates with a locking member 20 which is displaceable within a blind bore 32 of the chuck body 4. A compression spring 19 biases the locking member 20 towards the toothed skirt 18 so that the member 20 is forced to project into a respective gap 18.1 between adjacent teeth of the skirt 18 as is clearly shown in FIG. 2. Hence, a relative rotation of the chuck body 4 and the sleeve 17 in loosening direction as indicated by arrow 21 in FIG. 2 is prevented, however, a relative rotation in opposite direction, that is in tightening direction as indicated by arrow 21a is possible because the member 20 will merely glide along the respective flanks of the respective teeth when the member 20 is forced inwardly against the bias of the spring 19.
A loosening ring 22 is coaxial with the axis 30 and immediately above the toothed skirt 18 of the sleeve 17 around the chuck body 4 for allowing disengagement from outside of the locking member 20 out of the tooth skirt 18.
The loosening ring 22 is provided with a plurality of indentations 23a spaced along the inner side 22a of the ring 22 so that a corresponding number of axial channels or interstices 23 is defined between the loosening ring 22 and the chuck body 4.
As can be seen in FIG. 3, the ring 22 is provided with six angularly equispaced indentations 23a. Since the interstices 23 are arranged adjacent to the toothed skirt 18 in axial direction, the member 20 when being in engagement with the toothed skirt 18 can also project into a respective one of the recesses 23. Thus, when the member 20 is to be disengaged from the toothed skirt 18, the ring 22 is rotated relative to the chuck body 4 in direction of arrow 21a until the flank 24 of the respective interstice 23 forces the member 20 inwardly out of contact with the toothed skirt 18 to allow the sleeve 17 to be rotated freely relative to the chuck body 4.
As can be further seen from FIGS. 1 and 3, the chuck body 4 accommodates a retaining or detent mechanism 27 including a spring 29 which radially outwardly biases a ball 32 for locking the ring 22 in a position with the ball in one of the interstices 23.
Referring now especially to FIG. 1, there can be seen that the sleeve 17 is arranged at a distance from the chuck body 4 so as to define an annular space 25 therebetween which is in communication with the gaps 18.1 between adjacent teeth of the skirt 18 and with the interstices 23. The gaps 18.1 as well as the interstices 23 are open towards the outside in axial direction and form together discharge outlets 28 in prolongation to the annular space 25 which also communicates with the tool holding fixture 5 via a plurality of channels 26. The channels 26 lead to the tool holding fixture 5 immediately next to the axial through-passage 60 and extend at an open acute angle relative to the axis 30 in direction to the rear side of the chuck body 4. The cross-section of the channels 26 is sufficiently large to allow dirt entering during drilling to pass through the channels 26 into the annular space 25.
Consequently, during overhead drilling, dirt which enters from the drilling hole between the jaws 6 into the tool holding fixture 5 is transported immediately by means of centrifugal force and gravity through the channels 26 into the annular space 25 and eventually drops through the discharge openings 28 constituted by the gaps 18.1 and the interstices 23 out of the chuck to the outside.

Libya: The $600 Million WarWritten by Michael Tennant
For all his talk about cutting deficits, President Barack Obama seems strangely unconcerned about the massive amount of money his unconstitutional war on Libya is costing the American taxpayer. How massive, you ask? Try $600 million for just the first week.
Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla., pictured left), the Chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, announced Monday she will introduce legislation that makes U.S. funding for the United Nations contingent on reform. It also calls for the U.S. to withdraw from the U.N.'s Human Rights Council.
In an address to the nation delivered from the National Defense University in Washington, on Monday, March 28, President Obama made statements regarding American military action in Libya, and declared that NATO would be taking the lead from the United States. Obama also claimed that the United States' role in Libya is simply to defend those under attack Moammar Gadhafi's forces. Unfortunately, President Obama's remarks may not have been entirely truthful.

Report: Apple buys social video-discovery service Matcha
updated 12:12 am EDT, Wed August 14, 2013
Company had comprehensive database of available TV content
Matcha.tv -- a startup "second screen for TV' service that offered comprehensive cable and online video service listings, social channels for managing and talking about TV watching and other features -- has been bought by Apple, reports claim. The promising service and matching iOS app, which routinely featured in the top charts for entertainment apps, shut down quickly and mysteriously at the end of May. Users could use Matcha to discover content on digital, streaming and cable services, rate shows and get recommendations based on what they enjoyed.
The purchase price for the company hasn't been revealed, but the purchase was confirmed by Apple after Venturebeat first reported the buyout. How Apple intends to use the technology acquired from the startup isn't clear, but CEOs Steve Jobs and Tim Cook have both expressed an interest in "reinventing" television service. Apple has been on a bit of a buying spree lately, acquiring location-data service Locationary and transit-directions service HopStop.
Back when Matcha first shut down, CEO Guy Piekarz told reporters that the company would focus on a "new direction." A source in the original report estimated Apple's price for the company at as little as $1.5 million, but other sources have said that figure is incorrect -- implying that the price was higher. Should Apple find a way to incorporate Matcha's comprehensive cross-medium listing service into a future Apple TV or TV product, it would certainly be closer to giving consumers a larger and better TV experience.

Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steven Spielberg and David Geffen urge political donors to give to Shriver's campaign because the county needs his "vision and leadership."
The DreamWorks power trio has come out in support of Bobby Shriver's campaign for the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
In a letter distributed throughout Hollywood this week, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steven Spielberg and David Geffen urged their vast network of political donors to give the maximum allowable contribution of $300 per person to Shriver, who is running for the District 3 seat now held by Zev Yaroslavsky.
STORY: Fox, National Geographic Channel Team With White House on Student Film Festival
"During his eight years of exemplary service on the Santa Monica City Council, Bobby worked tirelessly to deliver first-class police and fire protection, clean up Santa Monica Bay and the beaches, create and maintain parks and house the homeless, especially military veterans," according to the letter. "In his own words, 'local government impacts people where they live, literally and figuratively, every day.'"
The DreamWorks heavyweights noted that the county supervisors "oversee almost every aspect of daily life in their communities: healthcare, education, the arts, parks, social services, transportation, land use and much more, for as many as 10 million people, especially the most vulnerable -- foster children, the mentally and physically disabled, the poor, senior citizens and the homeless."
STORY: Ben Affleck Testifies About the Congo on Capitol Hill
They added: "Now more than ever, we need Bobby's vision and leadership on the L.A. County Board of Supervisors."
Yaroslavsky, who will be termed out of office in December, has served on the Board of Supervisors representing the San Fernando Valley, the Westside and the costal areas between Venice and the Ventura County Line since 1994.
So far, Shriver's main challenger for the county seat is former state senator Sheila Kuehl.

Love this piece!
Christina from Elmhurst, IL – Verified Buyer
I searched forever for a serving piece for our not so large dining room which has traditional furniture and an oriental rug. I was looking for sturdy/good quality, not too formal style and function. This piece is everything I was looking for and looks great! Stanley has proven again to be a great brand as we have other Stanley pieces in our home. It serves at a nice serving piece, fits with both casual and formal furnishings and is substantial in length but not too deep (which was exactly what we were looking for). Wayfair was easy to work with and I receive the table in a week. The table was delivered assembled in a box and was left for us to take move into our home.
Sturdy and functional

The larger portion of Periodontal Assistants in the United States are women. Median pay in this female-dominated area goes for around $16.40 per hour. Compensation ranges between $11.73 per hour and $21.23. Most Periodontal Assistants are fairly content with their jobs, and work satisfaction falls in line with the national average. Medical benefits are awarded to a little less than half, and nearly one in three earn dental coverage. This report is based on answers to PayScale's salary questionnaire.
Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
The Periodontal Assistant can be thought of as very similar to a dental assistant or orthodontic assistant. Periodontal Assistants aid and facilitate the work of a Periodontist. The Periodontal Assistant plays a crucial role in the field, as the Periodontist needs to be focused with the job at hand as opposed to moving around and looking for different instruments, especially when he or she may be performing a surgical procedure.Read More...
The work environment of a Periodontal Assistant is indoors, primarily in a dental procedures room. Periodontal Assistants generally work regular eight-hour shifts anywhere between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.. A common shift would be 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Periodontal Assistants work primarily with the Periodontist whom they are assisting, but also with the office workers at their place of employment, as well as with the patients. Their primary duties include handling and maintaining dental equipment and making sure that the appropriate supplies are readily available. They also perform X-rays on patients, which requires them to be 18 years or older. Educational requirements are either a certification from a college or technical school, or three to six months of related experience. Periodontal Assistants must also be exemplary at providing customer service as they work with patients on a daily basis.
Periodontal Assistants provide many important activities in their job to make sure that procedures run smoothly and quickly for a Periodontist. Without their work, a Periodontist would only be able to see a handful of patients per day, and businesses would struggle as a result.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Average salaries for inexperienced employees average out to around $31K, but folks who have five to 10 years of experience earn a higher median of $36K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $35K in this role. Average wages for folks with more than 20 years of experience come out to around $42K.

WILLlAM HADWIN.
Improvement in Bali-ng Short Cut Hay and Straw.A
fifi/fz ess es.
/mp l UNITED STATES 4Pil-martyr OFFICE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 123,824, dated February 20, 1872.
Specification describing a certain Improvement in Balin g Short-Out Hay and Straw, invented by WILLIAM HADWIN, of the city of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York.
This invention is an improvement on that patentedto me February-28,1871; and consists in arranging the wooden strips to run crosswiseof the bale to shed water more readily, and in combining therewith longitudinal binding-slats at the edges, which cross the coverin g-boards at right angles, the whole being held by wire, as hereinafter described.
The drawing represents a perspective view.
My present invention diers from my former one in making the boards or veneers AA,which form the covering of the bale, to run crosswise instead of lengthwise, and in combining therewith the ed ge-slats or binders B B, crossing the boards'at right angles and lengthwise of the bale, and the whole held by wire bands C O situated at suitable distances apart. These bands have hooks and eyes, which connect in the usual manner.
f By this special arrangement I gain the following advantages The covering-strips, lying crosswise,form a better shed to rain, and do not require such tight joints, as 'thewater will follow the natural curve and run off unimpeded without crossing j oints, as it must do where the strips lie crosswise. Therefore,'it is a more perfect water-proof covering, which is of much strength is insured; and, in turning the bale over, or in the rough handling of transportation, there is much less danger of splitting or breaking of the wood, or of disarranging and opening the joints. A distinguishing feature ofthe invention is the edge-binders B B, crossin g the covering-strips at right angles, and thus bindn g them together, and serving to receive the strain at that point where contact occurs in turning the bales over, and also forming the bearings for the wires.
Claim. I claim- The covering-strips A A, lying crosswise of Witnesses:
