A case is molded of light-weight, thin-walled plastic in two hollow parts which when assembled, receives eyeglasses and sunglasses of many different designs and sizes. The case is slightly concave on one broad side surface and convex on the other. The upper edge of the lower part slants downwardly from one end, as does the upper edge of the upper port or lid. The two parts are hinged together at the higher end walls. A toggle-type latch is provided at the lower end walls. A gasket in the meeting edges is compressed when the clasp is engaged to close the case in a water-tight manner. There is sufficient volume within the case so that it will float. A projection on the top is apertured for a chain, thong, string or the like so that the case may be worn hanging from the neck. The concave-convex shapes of the sides accommodates eyeglasses without making the case unnecessarily thin. Such shape likewise makes wearing the case in a hip or shirt pocket comfortable.
1. An eyeglass case formed of light-weight, thin walled plastic material comprising:
a hollow lower part having a bottom wall, first and second opposed lower end walls extending upward from said bottom wall, a first lower side wall and an opposed second lower side wall extending upward from said bottom wall and each said lower side wall being joined to said lower end walls, said first lower end wall being longer than said second lower end wall, said first lower side wall being convex, said second lower side wall being concave, said lower part having a lower top face slanting downward from said first lower end wall to said second lower end wall,
a hollow upper part having a top wall, first and second opposed upper end walls extending downward from said top wall, a first upper side wall and an opposed second upper side wall extending downward from said top wall and each said upper side wall being joined to said upper end walls, said first upper side wall being convex and comprising an extension of said first lower side wall, said second upper side wall being concave and comprising an extension of said second lower side wall, said first upper end wall being shorter than said second upper end wall, said upper part having an upper bottom face slanting downward from said first upper end wall to said second upper end wall to engage said lower top face when said case is closed,
said lower first side wall curving upwardly-outwardly from said lower bottom wall, the perimeter of said lower top face being substantially larger than the perimeter of said bottom wall, and
said upper first wall curving downwardly-outwardly from said top wall, the perimeter of said upper bottom face being substantially larger than the perimeter of said top wall,
a first distance between said lower first and second side walls being substantially greater adjacent said lower first end wall than a second distance between said lower first and second side walls adjacent said lower second end wall to accommodate a folded pair of eyeglasses fitting closely within said hollow lower part, said first distance being substantially greater adjacent said lower top face than adjacent said lower bottom wall,
said lower top face and said upper bottom face being substantially co-extensive,
hinge means on said upper and lower first end walls pivotally mounting said upper and lower pans together so said case can be opened and closed, and
latch means for latching said upper and lower parts together in closed position.
2. An eyeglass case according to claim 1 which further comprises seal means on said lower top face and said upper bottom face to seal said upper and lower parts together in water-tight fashion when said case is closed, said seal means comprising a groove in said lower top face, a gasket in said groove and a rib on said upper bottom face engaging said gasket when said case is closed.
3. An eyeglass case according to claim 1 which further comprises a thick, resilient compressible pad in each end of said parts to cushion an eyeglass in said case against impact.
This application is a continuation-in-part of copending U.S. design application, Ser. No. 29/018,439, filed Feb. 7, 1994. This application is also an improvement upon U.S. Pat. No. 5,125,531.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a new and improved waterproof, floatable eyeglass case. More particularly, the invention relates to a light-weight, thin-walled plastic case composed of two parts. When assembled the parts have thin convex end walls and a pair of side walls, one of which is slightly concave and the other is convex. The overall shape is such as to readily accommodate eyeglasses of various shapes and sizes. The lower part of the case, which is considerably larger than the upper part, has an upper edge which slants downwardly-forwardly as does the lower edge of the upper part. The two parts are hinged together at the higher end wall of the lower part and are drawn tightly together by a latch at the opposed end wall. A suitable gasket in the parting surfaces of the upper and lower parts is compressed when the latch is engaged to make the case water-tight. By reason of the concave, convex shape of the case, it may be comfortably worn in a hip, jacket or shirt pocket, accommodating the shape of the wearer. Further, an apertured projection on the top of the case may receive a chain, thong or the like so that the device may be worn around the neck or waist or attached to a key chain. preferrably the interior of the case is lined to protect the eyeglasses. Large sponge-rubber pads may be inserted at either end to prevent the eyeglasses from being jarred from end-to-end.
2. Description of Related Art
U.S. Pat. No. 5,125,531 is a carrying case for such items as hotel room keys, credit cards and other small items. In this type case the side walls are substantially identical and only slightly convex, whereas the device of the present application is slightly concave on one side and considerably convex on the opposite side in order to accommodate the thickness of eyeglasses. Furthermore, the proportions of the two cases by way of height, width and thickness are considerably different.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,905,557 is shaped to fit the hip of the wearer when a belt or band secures the case to the waist. Other advantages of the present invention over this reference are readily apparent.
The case is specially shaped to accommodate eyeglasses and sun glasses of various sizes and designs. It consists of a lower part and an upper part which are hinged together and brought into tight engagement by a latch to form a water-tight enclosure. By reason of the weight of the case and its contents as compared with its volume, the case floats when dropped in the water.
The lower part of the case has an inclined upper margin carrying a gasket in a groove formed therein. When the upper part is hinged downward it engages the gasket. When positioned in the lower part of the case, a portion of the eyeglasses project above the inclined upper edge so that the eyeglasses may be easily gripped and removed from the case.
Another feature of the invention is that the two parts of the case may be molded of a light weight, thin-walled plastic so that the weight of the case and its contents as compared with its volume causes the case to float if dropped in water.
A transverse projection in the top is formed with a hole so that the case may be suspended from the neck or waist by means of a cord, chain or belt. Other items such as a key ring may be attached in this manner.
Padding on the interior protects the glasses. Preferrably sponge-rubber cushions are installed at either end to prevent glasses of various sizes from shifting from end to end as the wearer's position changes
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention:
FIG. 1 is a side-elevational view of the eyeglass case partially open.
FIG. 2 is a side-elevational view from the right of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a side-elevational view from the left of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a bottom plan view.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the case in closed condition.
FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line 6--6 of FIG. 5
FIG. 7 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view taken substantially along line 7--7 of FIG. 6 through the meeting edges of the upper and lower parts of the case showing the seal.
Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. While the invention will be described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments, it will be understood that they are not intended to limit the invention to those embodiments. On the contrary, the invention is intended to cover alternatives, modifications and equivalents, which may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
The eyeglass case which is the subject of this invention has a lower part 12 which is hollow and has an open upper end 22. Typically the angle of the upper edge 22 relative to the horizontal is between 15� and 30�. Cover 14 is hingably mounted for movement between an open position and a closed position.
Lower part 12 has opposed side walls 16 and 17. As best seen in FIG. 4, side wall 16 is convex both in relation to a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the case and also in a plane through the central axis and perpendicular to surface 16. 0n the other hand, the opposed side wall 17 is slightly concave in the plane transverse to the central axis and is relatively straight in a plane parallel to the central axis. The opposed end walls 18 and 71 are relatively convex and the wall 71 is of less width in a horizontal plane than is the opposed end wall 18. The configuration of the side walls reinforces the case and increases their strength against collapse under stress.
The users' eyeglasses thus fit conveniently within the lower case 12 but project up above the slanted top edge 22 thereof. Bottom wall 20 is preferably flat so that the case may stand on a level surface.
A continuous groove 24 extends around upper edge 22 and receives a resilient gasket 26 (see especially FIG. 6). The gasket 26 functions as a water-tight seal when the cover 14 is engaged. Preferably a thickened rim 29 is formed around the perimeter of the lower part of the case at the upper edge 22 to reinforce the lower portion and also to provide additional thickness for the groove 24. Hence, the side walls of the case may be thin and are reinforced by the rim 29. On the higher end wall 18 adjacent the top an ear is located for the purpose of hinging lower part 12 to the upper part 14 as hereinafter explained.
Upper portion or cover 14 has a pair of opposed side walls 40 and 41 and a top wall 42 as well as side walls 38 and 39. The curvatures of walls 38, 39, 40 and 41 generally matches those of the walls 17, 16, 71 and 18, respectively, when the cover is closed. Extending transversely across top wall 42 is a triangular projection 44 formed with an aperture 45 (here shown oval in shape) to receive a string, thong, cord or other device from which the case may be suspended. Upper case 14 has a slanted lower edge 43 which matches edge 22. A circumferential downward projecting rib 50 is formed on edge 43. Preferably the edge 43 is reinforced by an enlarged rim 33 similar to rim 29.
Directing attention now to FIG. 6 it will be seen that when the cover is closed the rib 51 deforms the resilient gasket 26 in the groove 24 to form a tight seal. A pair of ears 35 extend from end wall 41 and receive ear 30 therebetween. A pin 34 provides a hinge so that the cover may open and close.
A preferred latch 59 comprises an ear 66 projecting outwardly from end wall 71 adjacent the top thereof to which is pivoted by means of pin 67 a lever 62. Approximately midway of the length of lever 62 is an inverted U-shaped member 60 pivoted thereto by means of pin 64. A hook-shaped latch member 68 is formed projecting outwardly adjacent the lower edge of end wall 40 of cover 14. When cover 14 is closed, U-shaped member 60 may be brought over hook 68. By depressing lever 62, the hook 68 (and with it the cover 14) are brought tight against the lower case portion 12. Inasmuch as the pin 64 is located closer to wall 71 than pin 67, the latch functions as a toggle member to hold the cover tightly shut, compressing the gasket 26. In order to open the case, the user merely pivots the lever 62 upwardly and swings the U-shape member 60 away from the hook 68 (see the position of FIG. 1).
As shown particularly in FIG. 6, the interiors of both upper part 14 and lower part 12 are lined with a felt-coated fabric liner 76 and 77 respectively. The linings are attached by adhesive (not illustrated). Scratching of the lines and other damage to the lenses and frames is reduced by reason of the lining.
As also shown in FIG. 6, sponge-rubber pads 78 and 79 are inserted in the top of upper part 14 and the bottom of lower part 12. The pads are quite compressible and hence the ends of the eyeglasses are embedded in the pads. Adhesive (not shown) also retains each of said pads 78 and 79 in its respective part of said case. The resilient pads protect the glasses from damage which might occur if the glasses are jarred from end to end by activity of the wearer or if the case were dropped. Further, since the pads are compressable, they can accomodate long frame glasses and yet hold short frame glasses against movement.
The foregoing descriptions of specific embodiments of the present invention have been presented for purposes of illustration and description. They are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed, and obviously many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention and its practical application, to thereby enable others skilled in the art to best utilize the invention and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated. It is intended that the scope of the invention be defined by the claims appended hereto and their equivalents.

In February and March, I previewed the 29 other MLB teams and compared them to our beloved Devil Rays, in anticipation of the 2008 season which has Rayvolutionized The Game ….
To get you ready for October, we'll do it one more 'gain with the 7 other teams lucky enough to join the Devil Rays in the postseason….
2008 Regular Season Record vs. Cubs: 2-5 [All games pre-Manny] (0-3 at Wrigley, 2-2 at Dodger Stadium)
2008 Regular Season Record vs. Devil Rays: didn't play
All-Time Record vs. Cubs (1890-present): 1,012-1,011
Manny Ramirez 2008 Regular Season Record vs. Devil Rays: 6-6, (0-6 at The Trop)
October Arguments: Joe Torre is a piss-poor postseason manager.
Torre is 0-3 lifetime managing NL teams in the playoffs. His teams have also lost four consecutive playoff series and 9 of their last 13 postseason games. He is 0-2 in series against teams that have Joe Maddon on the bench. Joe Maddon has a World Series ring from this millennium; Joe Torre does not.
Record of Playoff Teams with Nomar Garciaparra on them All-Time: 11-18
Spring Argument: The NL West vs. The AL East
Back in March I wrote the following:
The Dodgers are being talked about by many as the favorite in the NL West. Not because they are good, but because the NL West is filled with boring teams with little or no talent, and the Dodgers appear to be slightly less boring and slightly less untalented. If they have enough healthy bodies, the Dodgers may win the NL West.
Our Devil Rays are obviously in a tougher division. If our Devil Rays were in the NL West, they would run away with the division by at least 20 games.
A few commenters like Dusto Magnifico objected vehemently to this. Meanwhile the Dodgers won the West with only 84 wins, even after adding Manny, the next best thing to The G-POPE Barry Bonds. (They were only like 7 games over .500 with Manny too.) Our Devil Rays meanwhile won 97 games. The rest of the AL East was 338-309 (.522); the rest of the NL West was 291-357 (.449). So I may be guilty of underestimating how dominant our Devil Rays would have been. For that I sincerely apologize.
If the Dodgers and Devil Rays meet in the World Series, the first two games will be at historic Tropicana Field, and we'll all see that the Dodgers ain't shit compared to our American League East Champion Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
Previously on Your Team Ain't S#!t Compared To The American League East Champion Devil Rays: Playoff Edition….
#1 Boston Red Sox
#2 Los Angeles Angels Of Anaheim
#3 Chicago Cubs
Coming soon to Your Team Ain't S#!t Compared To The American League East Champion Devil Rays: Playoff Edition….
On Deck: #5 The Philadelphia Phillies
In The Hole: #6 The Milwaukee Brewers
Who are the Devil Rays, minor-league affiliate for the Tampa Bay Rays?
"Joe Torre is a piss-poor postseason manager." Hahaha, the ignorance levels keep rising…..
Let's see, Torre has four WS rings as a Manager from the previous millenium and Joe Maddon does not.
I don't see why you feel the need to critique Torre in order to build up Maddon. What Joe Maddon has done this year should be impressive enough to stand on it's own merit. He is deserving of Manager of the Year.
I've had my own issues with Torre and the postseason, but it still doesn't detract from what he accomplished from 1996-2000.
I'm well aware of the players implicated in the steroid scandal, but I'm also not delusional enough to believe that steroid usage was the sole reason for the success of the Yankees in this period. Steroid usage was widespread throughout the league.
If Clemens wasn't doing steriods, then it is likely the Yankees would have stuck with Wells, who outperformed Clemens in both 1999 and 2000 and had a better post season record.

The convergence of television and computers is going to take a major step with digital broadcasts. Data will be sent along with video and audio. How we'll use the data is still largely unknown, but one of the more practical options is the set-top box.
Its name is very descriptive. It will probably be a box that sits on top of your digital television, just like many VCRs do right now. Also, just as your VCR does, a set-top box will take input from the cable connected to your antenna or cable service, and output to your television.
The set-top box will process the data sent with the broadcast, storing some of the data and executing applications. How it will do all this is still being developed. There are a few steps in the process which still need to be defined and implemented, including the format of the data, the set-top box's operating system, and the application environment.
At this point, it looks like these set-top boxes will be based on something like Windows CE or Java. No matter which system is chosen, though, TV is becoming an interactive experience with endless possibilities.

Fatal Illusion d'Ombre – Chanel
Chanel knows always well what to do. Especially when it comes to choose shades for a collection and the concept itself. For the Holiday 2013 collection, Chanel chooses to launch two new Illusion d'Ombre eyeshadows and one of these is Fatal. As always, Illusion d'Ombre eyeshadows are always really complex shades, very difficult to describe and also photograph. I'd describe Fatal as a multi-dimensional burgundy-taupe. That kind of colour I usually go mad for. It's full of micro-shimmers – not really glitters – that reflects the light and it's one of the most enlighting stuff I've ever put on my lids. It brightens your eyes just like a sort of magic and makes my brown eyes full of beautiful reflections. Since I bought Fatal I used it almost every day during last month. It has the well known Illusion d'Ombre unique texture: a sort of spongey mousse which is not cream nor powder.
Fatal is different from every other taupe shade I own. It's really warm that leads towards burgundy but it's not as red, though it's not as grey as usual taupes. Plus it contais micro gold and multi-coloured shimmers. You can use Fatal alone to achieve a perfect make up look, simple and elegant without much effort. I usually wear it alone as wash on my lids, blended out in a smoky effect. Then I add a lot of mascara and I have big, luminous eyes.
Though, Illusion d'Ombre eyeshadows are really, really expensive. I suggest you to wait for some Sephora discount code to get them at a more reasonable price. But there's also another downside: they're not waterproof nor really long lasting. On me Fatal lasts well for about 4-5 hours before creasing without a primer. With a primer it lasts all day long without any problem but since it's so expensive I'd expected a better performance.

Veterinary Assistant SupervisorLea Mercer
Veterinary Tech School: Gwinnett Tech
Lea has been a valuable part of the VCA Roswell Animal Hospital team since 1995! When not at work, Lea enjoys spending time with her daughter and miniature toy poodle, Sayti.
Lea explains "I know that each day I walk into the door that I'm going to make a difference in each pet's life. I enjoy interacting with clients and pets of all ages and believe I too can make that huge difference even though I am not a veterinarian."
Veterinary AssistantSandy Ehlebracht
Veterinary Tech School: Penn Foster College
School: Art Institute of Atlanta, Associates in Fashion Merchandising
Sandy joined the VCA Roswell Animal Hospital family in November of 2012. She grew up in Hilton Head, South Carolina and moved to the Cumming area in 2001. Prior to joining our team, Sandy volunteered with the Humane Society of Forsyth County. She graduated in 1986 from the Art Institute of Atlanta with her Associates in Fashion Merchandising and is currently pursuing her veterinary technology degree through Penn Foster College. When asked why she likes working in the veterinary field, Sandy said "I am instinctually a caretaker and, because of this, I feel that being around people and animals is a calling..."
When not at work, Sandy enjoys baking, watching cooking shows with her husband, and finding activities for her children to do that are not average, such as geo caching and odd arts and crafts. Ultimately, laughing and spending time with her family is her favorite interest!
Sandy explains "I was lucky enough to be granted a job with VCA Roswell Animal Hospital on Nov 22 2012. Since that wonderful day I have been striving to learn as much as possible and understand what I have learned. There have been a few hiccups from time to time but the staff here has been more than an encouragement more like my own private cheer team. I am spoken to with respect and the confidence that what will be taught to me is something I can handle. The Doctors are never to busy to answer questions as why they are performing the task they are. Explanations are given for what is wrong with a patient, and most of all chances are given. The people here don't want you to fail they want you to be good at your job, and that to me is a sound work environment! My interest for this field was when I decided to volunteer for the Forsyth County Humane Society. I was totally blind to how many pets were in need of homes and special care. I have always been a person to help those in need and care for those that didn't have a shoulder to lean on. I knew that this was a field where I could apply all of me to helping those that can't speak. Some people like sit behind a desk and not deal with the others. I on the other hand like to please people and make them feel like they are my number one priority. My past work experience was giving people the satisfaction of getting the best for what they desire. Here I give the pets and clients the best in what they desire. The fact that I get unconditional love every day from the patients is just icing on the cake. It is the most rewarding job I have ever had the chance to be a part of. I wouldn't care if I had to work days straight or endless hours in a day, the love and happiness I see in the patients eyes with them hopefully understanding that we are hear to care and make the best life possible for them. Comfort them when they are in pain and reward them for a job well done, it's my job to take care of them. I challenge myself to push back any fears and to learn more and more each day. Sneaking in a super hug, kiss and nosey to a patient helps me everyday."
Veterinary AssistantKristen Hoggard
School: University of Georgia
Kristen joined the VCA Roswell Animal Hospital family in October of 2014, but she is by no means new to VCA; she transferred from VCA Columbia in Augusta, GA. In fact, Kristen was born in Augusta and resided there until her recent move to the Atlanta area. She graduated from the University of Georgia in 2013 and hopes to go on to attend veterinary school! In her free time, Kristen enjoys spending time with her furry family--two dogs, Samson and Sebastian, and two cats, Storm and Cheeto. Kristen says "I have always adored animals of all shapes and sizes and I have always wanted to do whatever I could to help them. Combined with the lifelong interest in medicine, my love of animals led me to joining the veterinary field. My work at VCA is allowing me to learn and pursue my dreams of aiding animals; I hope to share my knowledge with our clients so that they can care for their beloved pets".
Veterinary AssistantKristen Windsor
School: The University of West Georgia, Associate in English
After a brief stint away, Kristen came back home to rejoin her VCA Roswell Animal Hospital family in July of 2014; our resident Cat Lady is back! Kristen grew up in Lilburn, Georgia and graduated from Brookwood High School. After graduation, she went on to attend West Georgia College where she earned a degree in English. When not at work caring for her patients and clients, she can be found smothering her own fur babies with love! "Why do I love my job at VCA Roswell Animal Hospital? There are so many reasons and not enough space! The first reason I love being a part of the VCA Roswell Animal Hospital family is because of the kitties & doggies (okay, mostly the kitties; sorry, I am the cat lady after all!). It brings me so much joy to see a once ailing pet get better with our help! There are always the kisses & cuddles we get from our precious patients and, as if that isn't enough, we have the most amazing clients who will do anything for their furry friends. Fur parents, you make our work even that much better with your support & gratitude. Lastly, I LOVE my supportive coworkers! In fact, they are like family and help make waking up every morning worth it! I love it that these family members of mine love animals just as much as me! If you are looking for a new veterinarian, please come and join our family; I promise you won't regret it!"

But Grayson has put his finger on the logic of the conservative approach to the issue.
By that logic however, Carol is also being floated as a possible casualty of the episode.
The logic of pizza is that everything that goes on it cooks in the oven.

Meaning "logical argumentation" is from c.1600.
The branch of philosophy dealing with the principles of reasoning. Classical logic, as taught in ancient Greece and Rome, systematized rules for deduction. The modern scientific and philosophical logic of deduction has become closely allied to mathematics, especially in showing how the foundations of mathematics lie in logic.

ITER TOPS THE DOE LIST OF FACILITY PRIORITIES. Yesterday the US Department of Energy released a list specifying priorities for construction or upgrading of science facilities over the next 20 years. The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), which would represent the next big generation in fusion reactor design, occupied the number one slot on the list, followed by the Ultrascale Scientific Computing Capability, a network which aims at greatly enhancing high-end scientific computing. Four facilities were grouped together as the number three priorities among near-term projects. They are the Joint Dark Energy Mission, the Linac Coherent Light Source, the Protein Production and Tags Facility, and the Rare Isotope Accelerator.

Feminist Artist Statement
The seriousness of intolerance that I see in our society is one of the driving forces that leads me to create work. I want to challenge people to re-evaluate overly simplified and narrow understandings of a much more expansive reality. As a lesbian I do not always fit into the ideal standards that our society has set for women. I am conscious of the constrictions that people may struggle against. The dichotomies that our society follow, such as feminine/masculine and beautiful/ugly are too narrow and restrict the myriad of experiences that makes up personal expression. Through photographs, video and performances I introduce viewers to individuals and subcultures, such as transgender people, drag kings and the queer community who break societal norms of acceptable expressions. I want viewers to become aware of their responses, recognize the stereotypes they consciously and unconsciously reinforce, and question the biases their choices are based upon. I often use my body as a metaphor and site for questions that involve, as well as move beyond, corporeal matters. These performances establish a sense of vulnerability but also power that is important for the emotional state of mind that I strive to maintain throughout the piece. I do not accept the roles, boundaries and decisions that our culture and society has strategically planned for my community. I strive to confront conventional social constructs that are malleable and will continue to change. I want people to be forced to critically consider their reactions and interactions with social injustices. I have the freedom to explore this territory in part due to the women before who have fought to be recognized. I make art that challenges directives because I look at art by women who do the same and it excites me. It makes me feel strong and I'm honored to be a part of such a community of people who stand up.

Hadlock Man Pleads Guilty to 2004 Port Ludlow Arson
A Port Hadlock man on Friday pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Tacoma to a 2004 Port Ludlow arson that caused more than $2 million in damages at a condominium complex.
Kevin Lee Graesser, 32, faces 11 to 13 1/2 years in prison after pleading guilty to the Dec. 2, 2004, arson at the Admiralty One Condominiums in Port Ludlow.
According to the plea agreement, Graesser admitted to setting the fire because he believed a man living there was romantically involved with his girlfriend. The fire began around 4 a.m. in a car that Graesser thought belonged to the other man. It turned out, it was the man's grandmother's.
The intended victim was not at the condos that night.
The fire spread from the car to the carport roof and quickly destroyed building 12 in the complex. Two adjacent buildings were also damaged. A building 12 resident heard a car horn and was able to get his neighbors out.
Graesser was arrested March 7, 2007 in Alaska and a federal grand jury indicted him April 12, 2007. His trial was scheduled to begin later this month.

Attorney: Rich Rodriguez and investors were also victims
Published: Thursday, March 25, 2010 at 2:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 25, 2010 at 2:32 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | University of Michigan head football coach Rich Rodriguez and other investors in the Legends of Tuscaloosa condominium development who are defendants in a nearly $1 million lawsuit were victims of another investor in the project, an attorney for the plaintiffs said in a statement today.
Rodriguez has been named as one of several defendants in the lawsuit, which claims that The Legends of Tuscaloosa LLC, a company formed to develop The Legends of Tuscaloosa condominium project on 12th Street near Bryant-Denny Stadium, failed to repay a $1 million loan for the project. The lawsuit, filed by West Columbia Trading Co., seeks more than $995,000, plus interest and attorneys' fees.
Rodriguez was served with notice of the claim on March 1 in Ann Arbor, Mich. The suit was filed in Tuscaloosa County Circuit Court on Feb. 23.
Rodriguez is named as a defendant along with Illinois assistant coach Ron West, who previously served with Rodriguez on Tommy Bowden's coaching staff at Clemson for two seasons.
"Coach Rodriguez, as well as the remaining LLC members, were passive investors in several real estate developments, including the Legends of Tuscaloosa condominium project that is subject of this recently filed case," said Ron Davis, a Tuscaloosa attorney who represents Legends of Tuscaloosa LLC and Palmetto States Enterprises LLC, the companies named as defendants in the suit, in the statement. "These projects suffered setbacks due to fraudulent actions of its original promoter and developer, Lamar Greene.
"Greene was arrested in December 2008, and charged with multiple counts of fraud arising out of his operation of these projects as a Ponzi scheme, which remains under investigation. This lawsuit appears to be one where one victim is trying to recoup losses by suing other victims."
Clegg Lamar Greene, a former Clemson booster who was disassociated from the school, was charged with five felony counts of fraud before his death last October. Greene's son, Jeffrey Greene, is also named as a defendant in the Legends of Tuscaloosa lawsuit.
The lawsuit is similar to one filed last year over a condo project in Blacksburg, Va., near Virginia Tech's stadium. Rodriguez was also named as a defendant in that suit.
Davis indicated Rodriguez's attorney, Hamilton Osborne Jr., will represent him in the matter. Efforts to reach Osborne were unsuccessful.

Best place to stay in D.C.Posted Mar 23, 2015
Pros: Everything
We were there in ice and snow. Great restaurants nearby and close to Metro. Felt safe at night.

Great location & OK price considering locationPosted Jun 10, 2014
Pros: Location, very helpful staff at check-in, clean nice room. Good, lively vibe in the hotel & the neighborhood.
Cons: Seems that most hotel rooms these days have in-room coffee makers. I would much prefer this to a mini-bar with such expensive items!
Location: 5-minute walk to metro;Starbucks across the street;bookstores right there;numerous enticing restaurants in walking distance. 1.5 miles to memorials.
Excellent location in Dupont Circle, less than a five-minute walk to the metro. Starbucks is right across the street, & there are many great restaurants within walking distance; also bookstores, CVS are very close. No in-room coffee, which surprised me. Room was a good price & good quality considering the location; I've stayed at other places in the DC area which have cramped rooms, low-grade facilities, and are still expensive. Hotel staff told me they were unable to provide a hotel receipt for reimbursement from my employer because I'd booked through Travelocity; I guess that's understandable but still wanted evidence that I'd stayed at the hotel.

really poor for value, so many issuesPosted Nov 1, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants
Had great hopes when we arrived. The front staff were very friendly. But several things went down hill fast. The website said that robes were available. We called the front desk for them to be sent up twice; they never came. The pillows were uncomfortably soft so we asked for foam pillows three times, finally, they said they were out. The wireless was so weak that we couldn't be on our devices at the same time or we'd get locked out of the internet. We had to call twice for more towels and wash cloths, finally they delivered towels and hand towels. So we had to chase down the housekeeper for wash cloths. I asked the concierge if he could estimate how much a cab ride from the hotel to Silver Spring would be, he informed me that cabs have meters and that would be how I know how much it cost. At that point we were just laughing at how poor the value was. It is a great location for visiting, though.

Would not return to Dupont Circle HotelPosted May 19, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants
Our first and will not return. Bathroom has signigicant design flaws. We had to clean up the water spilled from the shower area before we can use the rest of bathroom. When we mentioned our problems to the maid, she showed us a different room, and told us they were all designed that way. It was a housekeeping headaches. The front desk told us it was an interior design flaw. The room was quite small. When we attempted to move a small coffee table the top came off in our hands. Meals are pricey. We really don't mind paying a bit more for better hotel. This hotel just does not do it.

Biz traveler - okay....Posted Apr 2, 2012
Cons: Noisy, toilets not private
Stayed for a week. Garbage trucks 6:15 am daily. Recycling trucks 4 am. Rm 344 great if you get up before 6 am but not for sleeping in. Not for families. Single persons only given toilet situation in rooms. Restaurant on-site average. Service average. Room size was okay for single traveler but not for a family. Plantation shutters allow lots of street light with no curtains or black out shades. Lower floors not optimal.

Great hotel, bad customer servicePosted Jan 19, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants, Free Internet
I've stayed here many times and I always get the same upgraded Deluxe room. Apparently they've recently changed the room names and Deluxe is now the basic room (what used to be named 'superior room'). The site still shows the upgraded room as the deluxe room but the manager claims that doesn't count so I had to pay an extra charge per night to get the room I had already paid for anyways. This is a great hotel but there are many others in the area that would probably have a manager who knows what good customer service is.

We were very happy with hotel. The concierge and bell man were terrific. The restaurant was also excellent.Posted Jan 5, 2012
Pros: Free Internet
We really liked this hotel, never heard of this chain before, but had a great experience. The hotel was cozy yet very chic and had all amenities. The restaurant (breakfast and dinner) was awesome. The concierge was super helpful and the bellman was great, always so friendly and welcoming. We would definitely return.

In my distinctly modest opinion, coleslaw should never, ever be made with Miracle Whip. In my opinion, no one should ever even eat Miracle Whip, but, I digress.
Here's a simple, tasty recipe for coleslaw that will make a proud hit at your next barbecue or fish-fry.
6 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot
1 cup mayonnaise
½ teaspoon celery seed
¼ cup white wine vinegar
¼ cup sugar
Salt and pepper, to taste
Combine cabbage and carrots in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, celery seed, sugar, salt and pepper. Mix dressing into cabbage mixture to taste, and chill in the refrigerator. Serve alongside your favorite dishes.

Ventura Out of Shoemaker
Juddmonte Farms' outstanding mare Ventura, favored against males in the $250,000 Shoemaker Mile (gr. IT) at Hollywood Park May 25, was scratched by trainer Bobby Frankel on the morning of the race due to a "foot problem," according to the track's racing office.
The Frankel barn reported later that Ventura does not have a foot problem. According to his assistant, Ventura was withdrawn because she was acting quieter than usual and they decided to be on the safe side.

Originally written on Larry Brown Sports | Last updated 12/7/12
The New York Knicks easily defeated the Miami Heat by a score of 112-92 on Thursday night, marking the first time this season that the defending NBA champions have lost back-to-back games. From a numbers standpoint, LeBron James did his part. He scored 31 points on 11-for-20 shooting from the field (3-for-5 from three-point range) and grabbed 10 rebounds. However, LeBron was not satisfied with his individual performance or that of the team. After the game, LeBron let off some steam by lifting weights and venting to reporters about his team's second loss to the Knicks this season. "They kicked our ass. They have pretty much dominated us in two games," James said after his workout, via the Palm Beach Post. "We've got work to do. We can't act like, OK, let's just sweep this under the rug. We've got a lot of work to do. New York is a real team, they've got some real good players, and we understand that. "I've got to be better. I've got to be better. It's that simple. I'm here, and I'm the last one to leave." Miami's performance against the 14-4 Knicks is a good indicator of where they stack up, considering New York looks like one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference. Some of the Heat players already admitted they are struggling to find motivation after capturing the title last season, which is normal for any championship team early in the year. If LeBron continues to lead by example and give 110% on a nightly basis, I wouldn't bet against Miami reaching the NBA Finals for a third straight season. Photo credit: Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports

African seats
Prestel, 1995 - Art - 200 pages
Drawing on over 170 examples, this book offers a survey of the seats of sub-Saharan Africa, an integral part of a traditional culture that is already disappearing. The various essays by noted ethnologists address the cultural histories and aesthetics of African seats and other objects, as well as their regional characteristics. In addition, there is a wealth of photographic evidence documenting the use of seats and their original contexts, both past and present.

Lentils And Rice
|Brown lentils
|1 Cup (16 tbs), well washed and soaked for 1 to 2 hours
|1 , finely chopped
|8 Tablespoon (preferably olive oil)
|Freshly ground black pepper
|To Taste
|Long grain rice
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|2 , sliced downward into half moon shapes (Extra)
|To Taste
Drain lentils, cover with fresh water and boil for 20 to 30 minutes or until tender. Fry chopped onion in 2 to 3 tablespoons of the oil until soft and golden. Add it to the lentils and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and add to the rice together with enough water to make the volume of liquid in the pan about equal to that of the rice. Season again and simmer gently, covered, for about 20 minutes or until rice is tender; add a little more water during the cooking if needed — it should be just absorbed when the rice is cooked. Fry sliced onions briskly in remaining oil until dark brown, sweet and almost caramelised. Serve the lentils and rice in a large shallow dish garnished with the fried onion slices. Either hot or cool, it is a delicious light supper dish to have, dressed with yogurt.In the Middle East, the proportions vary with every family. Olive oil gives a distinctive flavor to the dish, but a lighter vegetable oil will do.

Andrew Reynolds Entrepreneurs Bootcamp 2009
I have just spent the weekend at the O2 Arena at Andrew Reynolds Entrepreneurs Bootcamp 2009, which was an interesting event with some great speakers and authorities on topics such as Internet Marketing, Copywriting, Google Adwords, Direct Response Marketing, Ebay and Motivation.
The speakers over the 2 days were Andrew Reynolds himself plus Pat Mesiti, Adam Ginsberg, Armand Morin, Brett McFall, Kirt Christensen, Andy Harrington, Simon Coulson, Chris Howard, Tom Hua & Joel Comm. What a line up, safe to say that I learnt loads of useful tips and techniques, which I will share with you….
Day One
Pat Mesiti – Pat is a motivational speaker often referred to as "Mr Motivation". As an income acceleration coach he harnesses people's potential with his passion to equip and empower individuals and businesses to experience growth and prosperity to its fullest.
His key message was about shifting your mindset to build bigger results.
It's an important message which often isn't acted upon. If you are all that you want to be now then Congratulations! But for the rest of us who strive for something more then part of the reason that you haven't got it yet is because your mindset is probably not where it needs to be and therefore you need to shift it.
"Where your focus is today your future is tomorrow"
Adam Ginsberg – An Ebay authority, regarded as the "No.1 Ebay Trainer in the World", Adam helps get people started on Ebay and takes their business to the next level.
He offered insights into Ebay trends and statistics, perhaps the most significant of which was the growth of 'Buy-It-Now', which is now used by 50% of Ebay buyers, demonstrating that people on the internet want goods and services now. This just goes to show that Ebay can be a useful marketplace for information products (subject to meeting Ebay's rules & regulations of course!) as people want things quickly.
Armand Morin – Armand was a particular highlight that I was looking forward to as he is one of the World's best known Internet Marketers having been online for 13 years generating over $76M in that time! Certainly someone who would be able to teach me some useful techniques…
Armand's main point was around the importance of long term relationships and recurring income.
He presented a simple 3 step system for success:
1) Find a 'hungry' mass market
2) Give away a free product or newsletter
3) Sell them a membership site
Evidently he talked around the importance of delivering good content and value as without this you are dead in the water, but based on Alex Jeffreys teaching and ethics and my approach this should be a given in any case.
Stripped down to its bare bones the system is simple yet so effective and will repay you over and over again.
I was fortunate enough to catch Armand for a chat in between one of the sessions and you can see a picture of me meeting him below. He offered further advice which I will cover in a separate post at a later date.
Brett McFall – Brett is a Copywriting Guru, widely acclaimed as Australia's best direct response advertising writer. He is also co-founder of the World Internet Summit (with Tom Hua), the World's largest IM seminar.
Brett divulged a useful 7 step formula for making money online GUARANTEED.
1) Find a hot niche market (the rest is easy!)
2) Create a product which gives your market what they want
3) Create a powerful, compelling sales message
4) Design a simple website that converts prospects into buyers
5) Bring Traffic to your site using the Internets' best search engines (free & paid traffic)
6) Use e-mail to turn even more people into customers
7) Have an army of affiliates to sell your product
Again another simple system, yet useful as it lays out the steps in an easy manner and you can map your progress through them and into profit!
Kirt Christensen – Kirt is an Adwords Guru, with over a decades worth of experience as an Adwords Qualified Individual he talked extensively on how to achieve a high Adwords ROI.
He outlined a 5 step system to Adwords success:
1) Sell what people are buying
2) Do Adwords Right! (deliver quickly and obviously what people want)
3) Track, Track, Track
4) Testing
5) Funnelise and monetize
I know that a number of people have mixed feelings about PPC, and it's a technique that I don't currently employ, however its one that remains a key strategy for the future as PPC has virtually no feedback delay which means you can be in business in about 10 minutes starting to see results.
Hopefully this has proved an interesting summary of the first day of the event, let me know your thoughts on the information thus far as it is just scratching the surface of my notes. I will post about Day Two later this week.

I've just viewed the videos of another seminar that had Kirt as a speaker. He does know his stuff.
A couple of interesting things on eBay from this seminar:
I can't remember the exact figures but eBay has more searches each day then Google and, I believe, MSN and Yahoo.
PayPal, which is owned by eBay, has more customers then all of the major credit cards combined except for Visa. Visa is larger then PayPal…for now.
Most people think that buyers go to eBay for cheap deals but price is actually the third lowest consideration.
By Tomharvey, October 5, 2009 @ 10:50 pm
Kirt was very interesting and had some useful tips, however Adwords is not something that is for me at the moment as there is so much else to do! Ebay is an interesting one though as you rightly say search numbers are vast and this is usually buyer traffic as people enter the marketplace to try and buy something. What I thought was interesting was the move from traditional auction to buy now, echoing the facts that people want things now and also price is not always the main driver. Thanks for stopping by.
By avis, October 6, 2009 @ 12:02 pm
Hi Tom,
I was going to go to Andrew Reynolds Entrepreneurs Bootcamp 2009, just miss out..By your post I have missed out big time. Adwords isn't something that am into at the moment neither, maybe in the future.
I have sold on ebay before and what I notice is people are more likely to buy from you based on your customer service feedback and your product description, they like to see a picture/video and a detailed description… the price comes last.
People would rather buy your product at a higher price, knowing that the customer service is good and they can see what their buying.
I can't wait to read your up coming post of day two of the event.
Kind regards
By Andrew Vaughan, October 6, 2009 @ 4:28 pm
Hey Tom,
Looks like a jam packed bootcamp.
What did you think of Andrew Reynolds? I ask, because I've come across a few people in the last few months who aren't too complimentary.
Brett's 7 step formula looks simple – given the hot market and the great product.
Talk soon,
By Tomharvey, October 6, 2009 @ 8:03 pm
I've heard mixed reviews about Andrew too. Whilst I haven't used any of his products myself, his approach is a logical one and he does seem genuinely interested in helping people however there is no doubt he is a very shrewd businessman and does very well for himself. Brett was a very nice chap and broke down the steps very simply which is all we sometimes need to focus in on as it is very easy to over complicate things and lose our way. Thanks for stopping by.
By Tomharvey, October 6, 2009 @ 8:41 pm
Shame that you couldn't make it. I would love to report that on day two I won Andrews Bentley (competition was one of the main benefits of attending!) but sadly it wasn't to be!! It was a good weekend providing you didn't get caught up in the sales pitches and whip out your wallet… All the speakers delivered quality content and tips and tricks and it was good to see and hear from the guys in terms of their backgrounds and successes. I found this year was a lot more IM focused than previous years which was good from my point of view given recent interest and business development. The second post will probably go up on Friday or Saturday so please check back. Thanks
By Paul Wilson, October 6, 2009 @ 8:44 pm
Hey Tom,
Looks like you had a pretty awesome weekend, and learned a few good tips
I will look forward to your next post on the rest of the seminar!
Talk soon,
By tom, October 6, 2009 @ 9:46 pm
Hi Tom
I will be honest tom,i have never heard of any of these people you mention in your post.Maybe that says something about me.
But i would like to thank you for dropping by my blog,thought i had better repay the favor.
And I'm glad i did.How to make a blog header,i will definitely give that a go.
Tom you have such great content here,I'll be back tomorrow to take another look.
Tom Shaw
By Tomharvey, October 6, 2009 @ 10:04 pm
Thanks for stopping by. The guys are some of the big names on the speaker circuit but in some cases operate quietly online making their money. You should be able to find them quite easily on Google. To be honest its probably a good thing in some ways as you havent bought any of their products in that case!! I've got a few of theirs and many others…. All the best
By James Howard, October 7, 2009 @ 11:37 pm
Hey Tom,
Another packed post there.
I think Brett McFall has the system down it tends to get over complicated but as Alex would say K.I.S.S
Looks like you had a good weekend but I want to know, how did you manage to stay focused with all the different subjects covered and that was just day one?
Can't wait for your report on day 2.
By Jacinta Dean, October 10, 2009 @ 2:55 am
Hi Tom,
Isn't Brett and Tom great Guys!!
I went to World Internet Summit here in OZ back in March and absolutely loved it. Have read Brett's book plus recently did his Make Money while you sleep seminar and most recently "Dream Life Seminar" here in Melbourne.
I am a big believer in going to seminars if you can. They are great places to network, meet new people, be inspired, learn, etc etc.
Stay Inspired and Be Good To You!
By Tomharvey, October 10, 2009 @ 12:53 pm
Thanks for stopping by. Yes Brett was very interesting and I'm intending to make it to one of the World Internet Summits, sounds like a good time! Thanks for your feedback on Brett's seminars, certainly interesting to know for the future. Have a good weekend,
By Tomharvey, October 10, 2009 @ 12:56 pm
Good point made by both Brett and Alex, its all too simple to overcomplicate the process and get bogged down in all the info and systems out there. It certainly was a packed weekend, I was frantically scribbling down notes and have been reviewing them and picking out the bits that are relevant to my current plans and endeavours! I am one of those people that likes to know a bit about everything so I can get an overview and dig deeper if and when I need to so I enjoyed the broad topic coverage. I'll get the second installment up over the weekend. All the best
By Michael Appleton, October 10, 2009 @ 3:15 pm
Hey Tom, thanks for your comment over on my blog.
Seems like you had a great weekend in London, what an incredible lineup and thanks for the links to their blogs
Can't wait to hear about day 2.
Take care and talk soon,
Mike Appleton
By Tomharvey, October 11, 2009 @ 2:51 pm
Thanks for the return visit. Certainly was a packed weekend and got some great info and networking with the guys. There is loads more great stuff ontheir individual sites. Ill be getting the second installment up later so keep an eye out for it. All the best
By Paul Lear, October 13, 2009 @ 1:19 am
Hey Tom,
Great post, from what I had time to skim through anyway. I will definitely have to come back here and read the whole thing, when it's not so late at night.
I'm off to my first workshop in a couple of weeks, it's going to be hosted by Lee McIntyre in Manchester, you probably know about it?
I look forward to meeting you there, if you manage to make it?
By Franck Silvestre, October 13, 2009 @ 8:29 pm
K.I.S.S. I like this. Armand's technique is good. he does what he preaches. You can find his free IM newsletter on every website on the web.
Plus I made a bunch of money with his products as an affiliate.
By Tomharvey, October 13, 2009 @ 11:55 pm
Thanks for taking a look, have almost finished the second update so keep your eyes peeled for more reading!! I'm not sure if I can make Lee's workshop unfortunately which is annoying as I know some of the guys and Alex went last time and said it was good value. I'm trying to see what I can do to shift commitments, let me know how it goes if I can't get there!!
By Dave Robus, October 14, 2009 @ 11:59 pm
Great post on the bootcamp Tom. Sounds like you took as much interest as I did. We should definitely compare notes in the near future.
I have been inspired massively by the 2 day event and believe that it will help us all to be spurred on to greater things.
Dave Robus
By conrad, October 30, 2009 @ 12:08 pm
Hi Tom ,like yourself found the content of the two day bootcamp very interesting and informative.Trouble is now with so much concentrated information that it frustratingly seems to be a job on its own just to work out where and how to put the first foot forward,whilst trying to put time into a fruitless retail shop just like we seen on Andrews video of his Father…..
By Rob Canyon, November 1, 2009 @ 7:02 pm
Very cool seminar you were at. Always wanted to meet Pat Mesiti. And I think Adam Ginsberg is one of the greatest stage speakers there is.
Sounds like it was totally awesome.
Got to get to the next… Know when it is ??
By John Tanner, November 15, 2009 @ 9:21 pm
Hi Tom,
Sounds like a really interesting seminar.
Over the last month or so, have you managed to put any one particular tip into action.
I'd be interested to read about that.
Keep in touch
By James Collett, December 28, 2009 @ 8:32 pm
This was a crammed event. It was crammed a great deal with sales hype for the system or product promoted by each speaker. This was the first event of its kind that I have attended. This was made possible for me by the low entry cost (all for charity etc).
Some speakers abused their opportunity to ply their wares. Being a newbie, I was not prepared for the merciless onslaught of sales pitches.
Nevertheless I managed to get down quite a lot of useful notes. I liked Andy Coulson and Tom Hua; they were for me the most believable speakers.
I bought Tom Hua's PRIMO system with my father-in-law, who attended also. I have worked right through the generation of the automated ebook system. The system is good technically, although the interface sucks out loud. It is disintegrated and lacks flow and clarity.
Currently I am struggling to see how I can create a positive cash flow; the use of Adwords has for me been a 100% flop.
By Tomharvey, January 21, 2010 @ 12:07 am
I've seen Pat speak twice now and he is one of the most energetic speakers I have come across. Always delivers plenty of good content and whilst his programs are not for me just yet, certainly seem to have benefit and are popular.
Adam was also very interesting, particularly if you are or have been an Ebayer. Some of the tools that he has developed, including the templates looked fantastic and certainly made the whole Ebay process a lot more automated and less manual which is what we all strive for.
Bootcamp is usually an annual event in the second half of the year so guess its best to keep an eye out. Ill post an update as and when I hear anything and hopefully we can meet up! All the best
By Jess Jones, February 14, 2010 @ 8:39 pm
Dude, that kinda makes sense when you actually think about it.
By Andrew Reynolds fan, June 3, 2010 @ 12:52 am
It was a good weekend, except for the tube strike.
The most poignant moment was andrew, visibly moved by the situation in south africa, handing out the metal roses made by someone in the townships.
I think he really does care.
By Tomharvey, August 11, 2010 @ 7:44 pm
Yes the transport wasn't great but at least most people managed to get there one way or another!!
It's nice to see that he does give back – both in terms of giving that business to the local craftsman (giving the gentleman a rewarding challenge which he achieved!) and also in the donations that the Bootcamps raise for worthy Charities.
Did you take up any of the programs or offers – would be great to hear how you are progressing if so….
By generating traffic to my website, October 23, 2013 @ 12:04 am
Great post. I was checking continuously this blog and I'm impressed!
Very useful information specially the last part
I care for such information much. I was looking for
this certain information for a very long time.
Thank you and good luck.

During the Apollo moonwalks, for example, such a technology could have prevented the highly abrasive lunar dust from adhering to astronauts' spacesuits. "However, the coating as it was originally formulated will not be able to withstand the harsh environmental conditions found in space," Peters said.
The Goddard team has experimented with and tested different formulas to determine their suitability for spaceflight. "No one formula will meet all our needs," added Peters. "For example, the coating that's applied to spacesuits needs to stick to a flexible surface, while a coating developed to protect moving parts needs to be exceptionally durable to resist wear and tear."
The Goddard team has met with exploration systems engineers at NASA's Johnson Spaceflight Center, Houston, Texas, to demonstrate the modified coatings and get mission requirements.
The team also is trying to partner with Northrop Grumman to add biocide capabilities that would kill bacteria, which thrive and produce foul odors wherever people are confined to a small space for long periods, like the space station. NASA could apply the same biocide-infused coating on a planetary lander to prevent Earth-borne bacteria from adhering and potentially contaminating the surface of an extraterrestrial object. The team believes this version of the coating may have commercial interest to hospitals as well.
"We are modifying and testing the formula to ensure it can withstand all the challenges our hardware will encounter extreme temperatures, ultraviolet radiation, solar wind, and electrostatic charging. Outgassing of the coating also must be addressed for use inside astronauts' habitation areas," Peters added. "We also are making sure it remains durable and cleanable in the space environment."
"We have a great team," said Peters. "Goddard is the only NASA center researching this type of coating, and we believe continued research will deliver great benefits t
