Financial stocks were mixed after federal regulators made their biggest bank seizure in the year to date as investors tried to figure out how many more failures might be coming. Credit card issuers mainly fell as President Obama signed into law new rules for the credit card industry.
Federal officials late Thursday seized Florida thrift BankUnited FSB in a move that is expected to cost the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s insurance fund $4.9 billion. It's the costliest hit since last year's seizure of California lender IndyMac Bank that is estimated to have cost $10.7 billion.
Bank of America fell 34 cents, or 3%, to $11.07, while Capital One Financial fell $1.01, or 4.4%, to $21.92. American Express fell 75 cents, or 3.1%, to $23.40.
Among retailers, Sears Holdings turned in an unexpected profit for its fiscal first quarter, rebounding from a loss a year earlier, as the retailer worked to manage inventory. The stock jumped $5.21, or 10.4%, to $55.40.
In other trading, the Russell 2000 index of smaller companies fell 3.60, or 0.8%, to 477.62.
Markets will be closed on Monday for the Memorial Day holiday.

IRVING, Texas Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett stood before his team Wednesday morning and delivered a strong message about how important it was to have a good practice. According to eyewitnesses, the Princeton man even changed his facial expression a time or two. Who knows whether or not it will matter Sunday night against the Eagles, but a handful of Cowboys players confirmed to me that it was the most spirited practice of the season. The seldom-heard-from Vince Agnew, who could see significant time as a nickel cornerback this week for the Cowboys, was taken aback. "It was double the intensity from anything I've seen in my seven weeks here," he told me. "It just took things to another level." And if you're nave enough to think the Cowboys have any shot at the playoffs, maybe this is a positive sign. What it suggests to me is that Garrett has finally realized he's about to lose his job if the Cowboys don't at least show some fight down the stretch. Surely he feels the ...

The present invention provides an exhaust system comprising an elongated hollow casing having an upstream muffler chamber containing an insulated removable cartridge for sound absorbing and sound collecting, an intermediate chamber containing a removable spark and moisture arrester and a downstream chamber having a removable and replaceable cartridge containing exhaust gas purifying material. In one embodiment the cartridge provides dual chambers, one for absorbing and absorbing exhaust gas pollutants and the other for catalytic conversion of the same or different exhaust gases. The purifying cartridge is constructed of a foraminous material such as heat and corrosion resistant wire mesh or screen. Similarly, the muffler cartridge is an elongated hollow shell formed of a foraminous heat and corrosion resistant material such as wire mesh or screen. The annular space around the muffler cartridge is preferably filled with a heat-resistant, sound-absorbing, gas previous material. The purifier chamber is provided with guide vanes to direct the exhaust gases over the purifier material and through and out of the purifying chamber. In another embodiment the muffler cartridge is provided with a plurality of sound attenuating chambers.
1. An exhaust system for connection to exhaust gas pipes of an internal combustion engine comprising a casing adapted for flow therethrough of exhaust gases from an upstream end to a downstream end of said casing, said casing having a muffler chamber at its upstream end, an intermediate spark and moisture arrester chamber and an exhaust gas purifier chamber at its downstream end, said muffler chamber comprising a removable foraminous cartridge having an axial opening therein for flow of exhaust gases therethrough and a sound attenuating material disposed about said cartridge, said removable foraminous cartridge containing a plurality of sound attenuating chambers decreasing in size from the upstream end to the downstream end and having openings for passage of sound waves from said chambers to said sound attenuating material, said intermediate chamber being filled with a heat and corrosion resistant strand material presenting a large number of surfaces serving to filtering out sparks and moisture and further muffling exhaust gases passing therethrough, said exhaust gas purifier chamber comprising a replaceable foraminous cartridge filled with small particles of exhaust gas purifying material, said purifying cartridge being supported in said gas purifier chamber by removable means whereby exhaust gases pass upwardly therethrough and whereby said cartridge may be withdrawn from said chamber for inspection or replacement of said cartridge.
2. The exhaust system of claim 1 wherein means are provided for splitting said exhaust gases exiting from said intermediate chamber and directing said gases into contact with said gas purifier material whereby to maximize contact with said gas purifier material.
3. The exhaust system of claim 2 wherein said means for splitting and directing exhaust gases are provided with curved inturned ends directed upstream whereby moisture is intercepted.
This invention relates to internal combustion engine exhaust systems and more particularly to a muffler, spark and moisture arrester and gas purifier system for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles and the like.
The private passenger automobile and trucks constitute a major, if not the major, factor in atmospheric pollution. The exhaust gases thereof introduce into the atmosphere not only carbon monoxide but also a large number of other pollutants which adversely affect human life and plant life. Among these other pollutants may be listed nitrogen oxide gases, unburned or partially burned hydrocarbon vapors, both aromatic and alaphatic, sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide, and lead compounds. The major components of burned gasoline, diesel fuel and the like are carbon dioxide and water, neither of which is harmful to human or plant life. There is a great need at the present time for an effective and economical purifying means for automotive exhaust systems, because of the acute worldwide air pollution control effort. A number of different approaches to solving the problem of air pollution due to automotive exhaust constituents have been offered. Some of these proposals involve improved combustion within the engine and/or improved carburation. Others involve recycling or reburning of exhaust products before final emission into the atmosphere. Still others broadly similar to this invention propose direct placement in the exhaust conduit of a device for removing at least the more dangerous pollutants. In order for such a device to be successful and practical, it must be economical to manufacture and install without adding greatly to the total cost of the automobile or altering the otherwise conventional parts of the exhaust system, and the device must not adversely effect engine performance. To be successful, the device must also be easy and economical to maintain after installation. Prior art devices of this general character have failed to measure up fully to the above requirements and as yet no completely satisfactory exhaust purifier unit or muffler has been devised.
It is therefore a desired object of the invention to provide an internal combustion engine exhaust system that meets all the above needs and requirements.
The present invention provides an exhaust system comprising an elongated hollow casing having an upstream muffler chamber containing an insulated removable cartridge for sound absorbing and sound collecting, an intermediate chamber containing a removable spark and moisture arrester and a downstream chamber having a removable and replaceable cartridge containing exhaust gas purifying material. In one embodiment the cartridge provides dual chambers, one for absorbing exhaust gas pollutants and the other for catalytic conversion of the same or different exhaust gases. The purifying cartridge is constructed of foraminous material such as heat and corrosion resistant wire mesh or screen. Similarly, the muffler cartridge is an elongated hollow shell formed of a foraminous heat and corrosion resistant material such as wire mesh or screen. The annular space around the muffler cartridge is preferably filled with a heat-resistant, sound-absorbing, gas previous material. The purifier chamber is provided with guide vanes to direct the exhaust gases over the purifier material and through and out of the purifying chamber. In another embodiment the muffler cartridge is provided with a plurality of sound attenuating chambers.
For a fuller understanding of the nature and desired objects of the invention, reference should be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein like reference characters refer to corresponding parts throughout the several views and wherein:
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a muffler and exhaust gas purifier constructed in accordance with the present invention with the top cover and top insulation removed.
FIG. 2 is a side plan view of the muffler and exhaust gas purifier of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is partly a side plan view and partly a vertical cross sectional view along the line 3--3 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a transverse section along the line 4--4 of FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 is a top plan view partly broken away of the exhaust gas purifier container of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is a sectional view of a modified form of the removable exhaust gas purifier container box in accordance with the invention.
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary partially sectional view of modified form of the muffler in accordance with the invention and illustrating a modified embodiment of the muffler section, and;
FIG. 8 is a transverse section along the line 8--8 of FIG. 7.
Referring to the drawings and initially particularly to FIGS. 1-4, the muffler and exhaust gas purifier unit in accordance with the present invention is shown generally by numeral 10 and includes a casing 12 and removable cover 13 forming an elongated structure having a substantially square cross-section and constructed of metals or alloys such as stainless steel or the like which are heat and corrosion resistant. The cover may be attached by means such as metal screws 15. The casing 10 is provided with stiffening flanges 32. The downstream end is provided with an exhaust end plate 14 and a short exhaust connection 16 to be directly coupled to the exhaust tailpipe in the conventional manner. The upstream end is also provided with an intake end plate 18 and an intake connection 20 which may be coupled to the usual vehicle exhaust pipe, not shown, leading from the engine. Within the casing 12 of the exhaust gas muffler and purifier unit 10 there is provided an upstream muffler chamber 22, and intermediate, spark and moisture arrester chamber 24, and a downstream gas purifier chamber 26.
The upstream muffler chamber 22 is provided with an axially mounted removable cartridge 28. In the illustrated embodiment, the cartridge 28 comprises a metallic foraminous shell 30 formed of metals or alloys such as stainless steel or the like which resist heat and corrosion. In the illustrated embodiment, the material comprises stainless steel wire mesh. A suitable wire mesh is preferably between 16�16 to 4�4 mesh size. The cartridge 28 is attached to and held in axial position to intake connection 20 by annular flange end plates 34 and 36 and metal screws 38. The space between the muffler cartridge 28 and casing 12 and cover 13 of the chamber 22 is packed with sound-absorbing and attenuating, heat-resistant, gas previous material 40 such as packing of heat-resistant fibers such as glass fibers.
Positioned intermediate the muffler chamber 22 and the gas purifier chamber 26 is the spark and moisture arrester chamber 24. In the embodiment illustrated chamber 24 is defined upsteam by the annular flange end plate 34 and associated cartridge 28 and on the downstream side by baffle means 42 containing opening 50. The chamber 24 is filled with a replaceable heat-resistant material 44 which allows the passage of exhaust gases without great resistance while substantially effectively filtering out glowing particles and moisture. One suitable material is continuous strand stainless steel having a fine strand width.
The downstream gas purifier chamber 26 contains an upper turning vane 46 and a lower turning vane 48. The upstream ends of the upper and lower vanes are mounted respectively above and below the opening 50 in baffle means 42. Both vanes are curved downwardly with the downstream end of lower vane 48 terminating adjacent to the bottom of casing 12 at point 52 and the downstream end of upper vane 46 being secured to the support 54 for supporting purifier container 56. The upper and lower turning vanes 46 and 48 extend transversely of the longitudinal axis of the muffler 10 to the sides of the casing 12 (as shown by the upper vane 46 in FIG. 1) and are secured in position by means 58 which may suitably be pop rivets. The turning vanes 46 and 48 define a passageway 60 and serve to deflect the gases exhausting from opening 50 downwardly and then upwardly for introduction into and diffusion through and out of purifier container 56. Positioned in passage way 60 are splitter vanes 62 and 64.
The splitter vanes are provided with curved edges 66 to further cooperate with chamber 24 to intercept and remove moisture. As can be seen in FIG. 3 the downstream end of splitter vanes 62 and 64 terminate in curved ends or edges 66 adjacent the gas purifier chamber 56. The curved ends are inturned upwardly and back against the direction of exhaust gas flow or towards the upstream end to intercept and remove moisture from exhaust gases. It is well known to persons having ordinary skill in the pertinent art, that the major components of exhaust gases of internal combustion engines employing gasoline, diesel fuel and the like are carbon dioxide and water (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,032,310 of June 28, 1977 (to Ignoffo). It is also well known to persons skilled in the art that when an internal combustion engine is shut off and cools down, water vapor in the cylinders and muffler forms moisture condensate. It is also well known that when an engine is first started such moisture condensate is blown from the cylinders into the muffler, a portion of which may be blown out the exhaust end of the muffler. It is also well known to those skilled in the art that as the engine is run, the exhaust system heats up whereby the condensate moisture is vaporized by the heat of the exhaust system and exits with the exhaust gases. In the instant invention, when the engine is first started, the curved inturned ends of the splitter vanes intercepts the condensate moisture reaching that point. The intercepted moisture then either remains on the splitter vanes and/or the base of the muffler until vaporized by the heated muffler and exhaust gases and removed along with the exhaust gases. The splitter vanes also serve to split the exhaust gases and provide for distribution of the exhaust gases over the lower surface, of purifier container 56. The arrangement allows for maximum contact of the exhaust gases with the purifying material 68 and minimizes concentration of exhaust gases about the downstream side of the container 56. In this matter, more efficient purification is achieved by the effective utilization of all the purifying material 68.
The gas purifier chamber 26 receives a removable purifier container 56 (FIGS. 3-5), filled with a heat-stable material 68 comprising particles of a substance or substances which absorb and/or chemically modify the components of the exhaust gas, particularly one or more of the noxious components describer hereinbefore. The removable purifier container cartridge 56 illustrated is boxshaped and has at least a foraminous gas-permeable bottom 70 and top 72, and preferably also has similarly foraminous side walls 74 and end walls 76. In the illustrated embodiment, the purifier container cartridge 56 is formed of a heat-resistant gas permeable mesh material 78 which resists corrosion such as stainless steel mesh. In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 3-5, the mesh material forms the bottom 70, top 72, sidewalls 74 and end wall 76. The cartridge 56 is carried by support members 80a,b,c, and end cover 82. The purifying material 68 as illustrated is preferably a particulate material and may consist of one or more solid, heat-resistant chemical compositions, e.g., small particles of charcoal which per se have gas-adsorbent and gas-absorbent properties and also, particularly when heated by exhaust gases, enhance further combustion of the exhaust gases, i.e., oxidation of the carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, further combustion partially burned hydrocarbons, etc. Other substances may be catalytic support with an oxidation-promoting catalytic metal or metal compound on the support. Exemplary of such type catalytic substances are supported platinum, palladium and vanadium catalysts heretofore recommended for automotive exhaust systems. Exhaust gases exiting from the top of the purifier container 56 are directed through the exhaust connection 16 by upper guide vane 55 and side guide vanes 57. The guide vanes may be secured to the casing 12 by suitable means such as, for example, spot welds 59.
Referring now to FIG. 6 there is illustrated a modified form of the removable exhaust gas purifier container box in accordance with the present invention. As illustrated, the purifier container 84 comprises a top 86, bottom 88, end 90, and end cover 92 constructed in the same manner and with the same materials as purifier container 56. In the modified container 84 there is provided a porous member 94 which divides the container into an upper chamber 96 and a lower chamber 98. In this manner the dual chambers, upper and lower, enable the use of one chamber for holding a material for catalytic conversion of exhaust gas pollutants to non-noxious of less noxious gases. For example, upper chamber 96 may be provided with a particulate catalytic converter material 100 and lower chamber 98 provided with a particulate gas absorbing and/or adsorbing material 102. Suitable materials may, for example, be those discussed hereinbefore with respect to purifier materials.
Referring now to FIGS. 7 and 8, there is illustrated a modified form of the muffler cartridge and comprises a plurality of sounds attenuating chambers 104 contained within the metallic foraminous shell 30. Each chamber comprises sound muffling walls which decrease in size from the upstream end to the downstream end and have axially aligned openings 106 for exhaust gases to pass through. The chambers are formed of a heat and corrosion resistant support 108 such as stainless steel wire and plates 110 which are attached to the outer surfaces of the support 108 by means 112 such as pop rivets or staples. The plates 110 are preferably formed of a heat and corrosion resistant material such as mica or other similar materials. The entire cartridge 30 is surrounded by insulation 40. The space 114 between adjacent plates 110 expose the wire supporting structure 108 which provides for further attenuation of sound by the surrounding insulation 40. It is believed that sound attenuation by the chambers is accomplished in part by diffraction of sound waves by plates 110 and reflection onto and absorbtion by the sound absorbing insulation 40.
The respective embodiments of the invention thus provide internal combustion engines with a muffler, spark and moisture arrester and exhaust gas purifier units, each having a segmented chamber providing a removable upstream sound absorbing and sound collecting cartridge means, an intermediate chamber providing a spark and moisture arrester means, an downstream chamber having removable exhaust gas purifier cartridge means. In each instance the embodiments provide a muffler and gas purifier unit which is readily adapted to and readily installed in automotive exhaust systems, provides easy access to the chambers for inspection and/or replacing the insulation, muffler cartridge, and spark and moisture arrester material. The purifier cartridge may separately easily be removed for inspection and/or replacement. Additionally, the exhaust system of the present invention may be employed with both leaded and unleaded gas.
While the invention has been described with respect to preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the invention herein involved in its broader aspects. Accordingly, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description, or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrated and not in limiting sense.

MODANO DONE? There is still no word from Mike Modano on if he has played his final game in the NHL, but the smart bet is that he has. In an interview with a Dallas radio station, he largely affirmed that believe, but wouldn't go as far as to confirm it. "I don't know. I think that was the swan song," Modano said. So are you officially retiring? "Not yet," Defending Big D has all the details on the radio interview and says that it's hard to come away from it believing anything but Modano's career is finished.
LOCATIONS FOR RELOCATION: The Atlanta Thrashers just became the Winnipeg Jets. Soon the New York Islanders and Phoenix Coyotes could be on the move as well, if things don't go their ways. There really are no Plan Bs in either city, so it's a boom or bust scenario. But Kevin McGran at the Toronto Star points out that serious problem in the relocation aspect ... relocate where? Quebec City is the first city on the list, but it doesn't have an arena. At least it does have potential owners who could build an arena by 2015 (when the Isles lease runs out). But others? Kansas City has an arena with no prospective owner. Same goes for Houston. Seattle doesn't have a suitable arena and no apparent serious owners. I'm still wondering why Milwaukee is never in this conversation. Perhaps it would be time to consider Hamilton, Ontario.
LOONEY TIMES: Former Detroit Red Wing Darren McCarty made a brief return to professional sports on Thursday, joining the Dodgers' Class A affiliate, the Great Lakes Loons, as a player for a day (Detroit Free Press). Unfortunately, McCarty didn't actually play in the game, he just signed autographs throughout as part of a Red Wings legends series. What I want to know is if he would have jumped in the fray if there had been a basebrawl. That would have been a time to have McCarty on your side, now wouldn't it?
KICKIN' KICKS: Paul Bissonnette is, thanks to Twitter, one of hockey's best-known personalities at this point. The Coyotes fourth-liner just got some awesome new shoes that seem to fit his personality ... and his team. The Biz tweeted out a picture of his custom Coyotes high tops that, as you might have guessed, are red. Take a look. I think he should have custom-made skates to match.

Vancouver holds off Minnesota to win 4-2, Sami Salo suffers another injury
Mar 15, 2011, 1:18 AM EDT
Idle Western Conference bubble teams were in an uncomfortable position tonight, as they were forced to root for their tormentors in Vancouver. That's because the Canucks hosted – and defeated – the Minnesota Wild on Monday.
Perhaps the Anaheim Ducks, Nashville Predators and Calgary Flames actually cheered out loud when they found out that Vancouver did it without going to overtime or a shootout to boot. With this win, the Canucks became the first team in the NHL to cross the 100-point barrier (101) during the 2010-11 season. No other team has more than the Philadelphia Flyers' 91, so Vancouver is worthy of the title Prohibitive Stanley Cup Favorite.
They even managed to impress two special guests tonight, as beloved former Canucks captain Trevor Linden sat with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper during the game. (Linden and Harper can be seen in this post's main image.)
The Canucks won their sixth game in a row, but it didn't come easily. It looked like it might at first, as the team charged to a 3-0 lead on goals from Raffi Torres, Daniel Sedin and Ryan Kesler.
Yet Mikko Koivu wouldn't allow his team to roll over during his first game back from injury after missing 11 games with a broken finger. He scored a goal and set up an assist in a gutsy performance that ultimately fell short of earning the Wild a much-needed point or two. Minnesota might be getting healthy again with the return of Koivu along with Cal Clutterbuck and Clayton Stoner, but it could be too late.
While the Wild are getting slightly healthier, the Canucks must deal with yet another blow to their brittle defensive corps, even if a Sami Salo setback ranks as one of the most predictable moments in hockey. Salo injured his elbow after blocking a Kyle Brodziak slapper. It's unclear how severe the injury is at this time.
Vancouver keeps winning game after game even though their spot in the playoffs is safer than any in the NHL. Minnesota needed this game badly, as they find themselves stuck in 11th place with 77 standings points. They remain behind the Ducks (79), Predators (80) and eighth-place Flames (81) for a playoff spot, so this loss must burn.
Yet the way this West race is playing out, anything can happen. Pretty much every night will include at least one important game, so stay tuned. It should be fun.
- tommytd - Mar 15, 2011 at 6:21 AM
Since when should V be listed as the "prohibitive favorite." They've never figured out Chicago and if the Blackhawks make the playoffs, the road to the cup is surely going thru here. Good ole "Bobby Lou" (Roberto Luongo) has *never* shown he can stop the Hawks and I know they're in his head. Vancouver as the prohibitive favorite…I don't think so!
- missthemexpos - Mar 15, 2011 at 10:43 AM
The thing that is in the head of all the canucks is that song they play in Chicago every time the home scores a goal.

Calif. initiative will test appetite for GMO foodBy ALICIA CHANG
The Associated Press | October 07,2012LOS ANGELES Calories. Nutrients. Serving size. How about produced with genetic engineering?
California voters will soon decide whether to require certain raw and processed foods to carry such a label.
In a closely watched test of consumers appetite for genetically modified foods, the special label is being pushed by organic farmers and advocates who are concerned about what people eat even though the federal government and many scientists contend such foods are safe.
More than just food packaging is at stake. The outcome could reverberate through American agriculture, which has long tinkered with the genes of plants to reduce disease, ward off insects and boost the food supply.
International food and chemical conglomerates, including Monsanto Co. and DuPont Co., have contributed about $35 million to defeat Proposition 37 on the November ballot. It also would ban labeling or advertising genetically altered food as natural. Its supporters have raised just about one-tenth of that amount.
If voters approve the initiative, California would become the first state to require disclosure of a broad range of foods containing genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. Food makers would have to add a label or reformulate their products to avoid it. Supermarkets would be charged with making sure their shelves are stocked with correctly labeled items.
Genetically altered plants grown from seeds engineered in the laboratory have been a mainstay for more than a decade. Much of the corn, soybeans, sugar beets and cotton cultivated in the United States today has been tweaked to resist pesticides or insects. Most of the biotech crops are used for animal feed or as ingredients in processed foods including cookies, cereal, potato chips and salad dressing.
Proponents say explicit labeling gives consumers information about how a product is made and allows them to decide whether to choose foods with genetically modified ingredients.
Theyre fed up. They want to know whats in their food, said Stacy Malkan, spokeswoman for the California Right to Know campaign.
Agribusiness, farmers and retailers oppose the initiative, claiming it would lead to higher grocery bills and leave the state open to frivolous lawsuits. Kathy Fairbanks, spokeswoman for the No on 37 campaign, said labels would be interpreted as a warning and confuse shoppers.
Its not necessary. Worse, it leaves people with the impression that theres something wrong with the food. Thats not the case, she said.
The government approves genetically engineered plants and animals on a case-by-case basis, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture restricts the use of GMO crops that might harm other plants. The Food and Drug Administration can only require labeling if a genetically altered food is different in taste, for example from its non-engineered version or known to cause allergies.MORE IN Wire NewsLOS ANGELES A former California real estate developer once honored as his citys citizen of the...

If we have a boy, DH is set on naming it after him. He even refers to the baby as "Baby Ray". He says he just wants to carry on his name.
I on the other hand think its unfair and that we should give the baby its own name and its own identity. I think him carrying on the last name is enough.
What is your opinion on the matter?

The 'Linger' bench seat has come about through experimentation into doing as little as possible to achieve a functionally successful product. In this case, two pieces of 4mm stainless steel plate, laser cut and folded, a plank of timber with four incisions made across the grain and durable finish. A sturdy platform to linger a while.

The classic canopy bed in a modern interpretation, suitable to be positioned mid-room; base frame and headboard in leather or fabric. The bed rests on a platform which is large enough to position a storage element with an open compartment and a drawer at the foot of the bed. One single large size and four different finishes: brushed light and black oak, grey and brown oak. While maintaining the structural characteristics of a canopy bed, another version is now available, Alcova. The new bed is smaller in size with the headboard and mattress box higher than the original version. The protruding base has also been eliminated. The easily removable covers are finished with exquisite needlework. In natural grey, brown, black oak or wengé.

Button is a side table developed with the purpose to provide versatility in the living space. With the removable table top it can also be used as a serving tray and adapts to the user's wish. The centered handle makes it easy to move and it also becomes a visual feature in itself.

During the Salone Del Mobile, De Padova launched the Keel table, FUWL's first collaboration with the legendary Italian design house. The simple table idea is based on observation of sailboats. The vertical divider inserted in the table is like the centerboard that crosses the keel of a boat. The colored wooden part at the center adds stability and crosses the whole structure, a single piece of curved wood that makes the table balanced and elegant.

This porcelain vases collection is a research on aesthetic of industrial archeology. These vases draw attention to the cultural dimension of industrial architecture, highlighting the need for preservation of these buildings. The collection has an evident inspiration, and is a tribute to the work of two internationally renowned artists: Bernd and Hilla Becher.

The name giver of Marionet shows how to do it: only the connections between the (body) parts, joints and threads hold together the marionette; if one of the components is missing it collapses. This principle is equally applicable to the side table, which Simon Busse designed for the Mox Company: Only if all its components interact the table stands firmly. Three flat wooden legs other form the basis and are brought into position by a connective element. A hook on the top side of the connective element holds a coloured elastic band – the marionette's string. The band runs through the wooden legs towards a tabletop and turns into a carrying handle on the upper side. In order to lock this fragile structure, the tabletop is bevelled downwards, the legs are kept in position and the entire table stands firmly.

Storage units, made of steel sheet, that can be either open, with drawers or sliding doors. Adhoc stems from the desire to create a home furnishing system with a historically industrial material. The sheet metal has allowed working with 1.5-mm thick plates. Thanks to a special compass opening solution patented by Bruno Fattorini & Partners (patent pending No. MI2011A000131), the door folds away inside the container with no lateral encumbrance, which further minimizes the layout of the containers, already simple and linear, and lends a perception of extreme lightness.

New York-based textile design company Maharam has teamed up with Fritz Hansen and Kvadrat to launch Point by Paul Smith. The upholstery textile is a mix of Smith's signature 'classics with a twist' pattern.
"The idea behind this fabric came from traditional Scottish Fair Isle knitting; I love the vibrant mix of colours and patterns that Fair Isle techniques create and have used many variations of it over the years," said Smith.
Point combines natural tones and accent colours that are available in seven geometric patterns, ranging from traditional to modern. To celebrate the launch of Point by Paul Smith, the textile will be upholstered on a selection of Fritz Hansen's classic design icons including the Egg, Swan and Grand Prix by Arne Jacobsen and the PK22 chair by Poul Kjærholm, as well as the Alphabet Sofa by Piero Lissoni.

The Swedish designer Jonas Wagell has created this new interpretation of the classical chamber candlestick. Flag's design was inspired by the little signal flags on floating buoys used to send signals to sailors. Designed to hold a single candle, the candlestick has a classic expression that would suit any interior style. In the old days, the chamber candlestick was used to provide light at night. Today, candlelight is used to create a warm and cosy atmosphere. With clear references to the chamber candlestick, Flag has a recognisable function and modern expression and is easily moved by picking up the little flag.

Remembering Actress Anne Francis
Actress Anne Francis passed away on Sunday at a Santa Barbara nursing home.
The sad news also comes the same day as we learned of British actor Pete Postlethwaite's passing.
Francis, best known for her role as the love interest in the 1950s science-fiction classic "Forbidden Planet" and later was sexy private eye in "Honey West" on TV, was 80.
The actress, who had surgery and chemotherapy after being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2007, died of complications of pancreatic cancer, her daughter, Jane Uemura, told the Los Angeles Times.
Like many actors of that time, Francis arrived in Hollywood when she landed a movie contract at MGM. She later went to 20th Century-Fox, then returned to MGM, and the two big studios afforded her the chance to act opposite the biggest male stars of the day.
Francis co-starred with many actors in some of the most popular films of the 1950s including Spencer Tracy, Paul Newman, Robert Taylor and Leslie Nielsen, with whom she co-starred in Forbidden Planet.
But "Forbidden Planet" and "Honey West" made her reputation. The beautiful blonde with the beauty mark was hailed in Leonard Maltin's movie guide as "one of the most ambitious and intelligent films of its genre."
Francis was nonimated for an Emmy in her role as a sexy and stylish private detective in "Honey West," which lasted 30 episodes.
Francis is survived by her daughter Jame Uemura, her second husband, Robert Abeloff, daughter Maggie, and a grandson.

Follow the happenings with the White House Conference on Aging 2015
Directly from the White House:
The first White House Conference on Aging (WHCoA) was held in 1961, with subsequent conferences in 1971, 1981, 1995, and 2005. These conferences have been viewed as catalysts for development of aging policy over the past 50 years. The conferences generated ideas and momentum prompting the establishment of and/or key improvements in many of the programs that represent America's commitment to older Americans including: Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and the Older Americans Act.
The 2015 White House Conference on Aging
2015 marks the 50th anniversary of Medicare, Medicaid, and the Older Americans Act, as well as the 80th anniversary of Social Security. The 2015 White House Conference on Aging is an opportunity to recognize the importance of these key programs as well as to look ahead to the issues that will help shape the landscape for older Americans for the next decade.
In the past, conference processes were determined by statute with the form and structure directed by Congress through legislation authorizing the Older Americans Act. To date, Congress has not reauthorized the Older Americans Act, and the pending bill does not include a statutory requirement or framework for the 2015 conference.
However, the White House is committed to hosting a White House Conference on Aging in 2015 and intends to seek broad public engagement and work closely with stakeholders in developing the conference. We also plan to use web tools and social media to encourage as many older Americans as possible to participate. We are engaging with stakeholders and members of the public about the issues and ideas most important to older individuals, their caregivers, and families. We also encourage people to submit their ideas directly through the Get Involved section on this website.

Great New Resource on "Elder Abuse Prevention" via Greater Boston Legal Services
We recently heard from Emily Crim, a Public Interest Fellow working in Boston with the "Elder Abuse Prevention Project" under the auspices of Greater Boston Legal Services. The project's important mission, now more than a year in development, is to "offer legal advice and representation of victims, provide training to care providers, community members, and seniors, as well as to advocate for systemic reform and build local networks that can prevent and intervene in cases of abuse." As part of this Project, they have recently launched a great new "Project Blog" to help get the word out.
Here's a link to their most recent post on "LGBT Elder Abuse: An Invisible Problem within an Invisible Community." Here's a link to the Project website too. Certainly the topics addressed here are relevant beyond the Greater Boston area!
Thanks, Emily, for reading our Elder Law Prof Blog and for sharing your latest news!

What Should You Look For In An Elder Law Attorney?
ElderLawGuy (and good friend) Jeff Marshall has a great blog post on "How to Find A Good Attorney for Older Adult Issues" He knows whereof he speaks and starts off by explaining the important reasons for asking the right questions:
"Planning for senior issues like incapacity and long term care is an important aspect of the services provided by what have become known as "elder law attorneys." Unfortunately, in most states any lawyer can say he or she practices elder law or hold themselves out as being an "elder law attorney" even if the lawyer has little or no experience with the issues that are especially important to older adults. This means seniors must be particularly cautious in choosing a lawyer and carefully investigate the lawyer before hiring."
Jeff explains the significance of "certification" as a specialist and how to assess "ratings" or particular approaches to planning, such as "life care planning." The post is useful both for consumers and young attorneys thinking about how to build a respected career.

Tips for Elder Law Prof Blog Readers: Comments and Subscriptions
Readers sometimes send emails to us, rather than adding comments to an individual post. That's great, of course. We welcome all forms of communication about the contents of the blog, especially ideas, topics, links to new academic articles or presentations, or news items.
Also, for those readers who may be new to this website, when Kim, Becky or I write a "post" we can (and usually do) open the post for "Comments." Readers can add a Comment to the individual post. We review Comments before releasing them for publication. Thus, there will often be a small delay before a comment is made public. A couple of readers have mentioned to me problems with the "Comment" function. I know it can be frustrating to type something twice. One option is to type the comment first in Word, and then cut and paste that into the "Comment window." Thus, if something goes awry the first time, you at least don't have to retype.
Also, we welcome "subscribers" to the Elder Law Prof Blog. No cost, of course! Subscribers receive an email periodically (no more than once per day and less often if there are no new posts) that provides summaries of new posts and direct links to individual items. You can unsubscribe at any time (directions for unsuscribing are at the bottom of the email). The link for subscriptions appears at the top of the Elder Law Prof Blog.

The Peer Tutors for the 2014-2015 Academic Year:
Noah Burnett
Class of 2016
Other Roles on Campus: Senior Math Leader
Hi, I'm Noah! I come from Willington, Connecticut, and I'm a junior here at Wheelock. I am majoring in Elementary Education and Math/Science with a focus in math as well as minoring in Leadership. I hope to eventually become a school principal, and maybe even the superintendent of a school district! On a more personal level, I love to cook and taught myself how to do so by watching the Food Network, trying tons of recipes, etc. I also love to explore different areas of Boston in my free time, as I'm always finding new places to go! In my time here, Wheelock has impacted me positively both academically and non-academically, and I can't wait to meet new people here!
Taylor Goyette-Frechette
Class of 2017
Other Roles on Campus: Admissions Ambassador, Orientation Leader, General Member of Campus Activities Board (CAB)
Hi everyone, I'm Taylor! (I know, from the picture you may have thought I was Beyoncé, but I'm not). I am double majoring in Social Work and Political Science & Global Studies, with a minor in Writing. I have a passion for being a voice for those who aren't heard, and so I hope to be an advocate for victims of sex trafficking in the United States. I am originally from a small town called Turner, ME, but I now consider Wheelock as a second home. If I had to choose what I am looking forward to most this year as a peer tutor, I would say having the opportunity to interact with more members of the Wheelock community.
Kendra Grant
Class of 2016
Other Roles on Campus:Oral Communications Peer Tutor, Wheelock Family Theatre stage crew member
Hi everyone! I am a junior here at Wheelock College, and I am studying Human Development with a focus in Developmental Psychology. I also have a passion for the theatre, and I have been actively involved in acting and singing since I was about nine years old. Therefore I have two minors in this field. My first minor is in theatre, and the other is in community arts. I plan on incorporating theatre, and music into my professional and personal life. Aside from my theatre passion, I also enjoy helping others, and I can't wait to work with the Wheelock community in the peer-tutoring center!
Emily Jestus

CRLA Certified, Level 2 Tutor
Other Roles on Campus: Bridge Assistant, Writing Center Student Director, Poetry Editor of Catachresis literary magazine, Wheelock Honors Program President, Public Relations Officer of Wheelock Student Theatre
Hi everyone! I am an unconventional, auditory, enthusiastic learner. After Wheelock, I hope to work with children with behavioral special needs. My life's passion lies in theater, music, and art, and I incorporate these into my life and work as much as possible. This year, I am looking forward to growing my role in the Peer Tutoring Center in several different directions and interacting and supporting new students.
Claire Kawski

Other Roles on Campus: Passion for Action Scholar, member of Best Buddies & Service in Action, COF Dance Project
Hello! My name is Claire Kawski, and I am originally from the North Shore of MA. I am a Visual Arts major, and I am also in the Child Life Dual Degree Program. Dancing, music, the arts, and working with children have been key elements for the greater portion of my life, and attending Wheelock has magnified the importance of these things throughout the past three years. I consider myself to be a very visual learner who can explain topics in a creative and different way. I look forward to working with my peers and strengthening my connection with the Wheelock community.
Kellie Neary

Other Roles on Campus: Student Advisor, Admissions Ambassador, Math Leader, Vice President of Teach Learn Create (TLC), and Senator of Campus Activities Board (CAB)
I'm so excited to be working as a Peer Tutor this year. I am originally from Nashua, NH which is only about an hour away from the wonderful city of Boston. I am currently double majoring in Elementary Education and Counseling Psychology. My career goal is to work in a low income school district as an Elementary School Teacher. I love working with both children and peers and helping them strive to be their very best.
Julia Paolino
Class of 2017
Other Roles on Campus: Student Advisor, Writing Consultant, Peer Presentation Coach, Admissions Ambassador, Public Relations Officer for the Campus Activities Board
Hi everyone! My name is Julia Paolino and I am a sophomore here at Wheelock originally from Warwick, RI. I'm a Communications/Media Literacy and Performing Arts major who loves funny faces, hates gum, and wears cardigans. No matter where the future may take me, I hope to always incorporate my love of theater and the arts into my career. Over the past year, I've especially loved working with the Wheelock Family Theatre both behind the scenes and in their productions of Hairspray and It's a Wonderful Life. Above all, Wheelock has given me the opportunity to help others in so many ways, which is why I am so excited to be working as a peer tutor this year. I hope to get to know many of you and help you in any way possible throughout the year!

Hey! I'm Nicholas Quijano and I am a sophomore at Wheelock. I am originally from Long Island, New York, but I have lived in Vermont for the last couple of years.

I can't wait to see you all in our office sometime!
Eva Roberts
Class of 2015
Other Roles on Campus: Secretary for Class Council 2015
I am an Elementary Education and Performing Arts major with a minor in Autism Studies. I came to Wheelock to pursue my life long dream of becoming a teacher. It was not until I came to Wheelock that I started to thrive as a student and as an active member of campus. Wheelock has become my new home and I am excited to be starting the second half of my college career. I will be living off campus this year but I know I will be a familiar face around Wheelock. I enjoy strong minds, books, children, food, and cats. I really look forward to meeting new and exciting Wheelock students!

Hi! This is my second year as a Peer Tutor and I am excited to be working with Wheelock students! My hometown is Framingham, MA but I love returning to Boston every year.

I enjoy encouraging others to find a positive outlet to express themselves.

The third part of the popular and comprehensive series Photoshop CS6 One-on-One follows industry pro Deke McClelland as he plunges into the inner workings of Adobe Photoshop. He shows how to adjust your color, interface, and performance settings to get the best out of your images and the most out of Photoshop, and explores the power of Smart Objects, Shadows/Highlights, and Curves for making subtle, nondestructive adjustments. The course dives into Camera Raw to experiment with the editing toolset there, and returns to Photoshop to discuss toning, blur, and blend modes. Deke also teaches tried-and-true methods for sharpening details and reducing noise, as well as creating quick and accurate selections with Quick Mask, Color Range, and Refine Edge commands.
In this movie, I'll show you three special things that you can do with Camera Raw images here in Bridge. So for starters here, I'll select this file Spanishtown dinosaurs. If I were to press Ctrl+R or Cmd+R, I would open Camera Raw hosted by Bridge. If I were to double-click on the file, I'd open Camera Raw hosted by Photoshop. Let's say you always want Bridge to host Camera Raw. Well then, what you do is you press Ctrl+K or Command+K on the Mac in order to bring up the Preferences dialog box and you want to switch to the General panel, if it doesn't come up in general automatically and select Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge and then click OK.
And now if I double-click on this thumbnail, it opens in Camera Raw inside the Bridge, just as if you have pressed Ctrl+R or Cmd+R. All right. I am going to cancel out of here. Now contrast that by the way to pressing Ctrl+O or Cmd+O on the Mac, that's going to go ahead and switch you to Photoshop as always and Photoshop, will host Camera Raw. Once again I am going to cancel out here and I'll go up to the File menu and choose Browse in Bridge or press Ctrl+Alt+O, Cmd+Opt+O on the Mac to switch back to Bridge. So, that was special item number one, here is special item number two.
Let's say you want to open an image in Photoshop, but you want to bypass Camera Raw. You just want to accept the settings you have and start working. Well, in that case, you press the Shift key and double-click on the thumbnail. Even though we've set double-clicking to open the image in Camera Raw in Bridge, by virtue of the fact that I had the Shift key down, it still goes ahead and switches those to Photoshop and opens the file directly. All right. Let's return to the Bridge once more and now I'll show you special thing number three which is how you can copy and paste Camera Raw settings between different images.
I am going to start off by right-clicking on Spanishtown dinosaurs.dng, choosing Develop Settings from the list, and then you choose Copy Settings. Then switch over to Swim meet-1.dng which is right next door and I'm feeling pretty good about replacing these settings because I have already got him backed up on the other three Swim meet files. So I'll right-click on the image, choose Develop Settings and then choose Paste Settings. Then you get that big long list of settings that you could possibly copy and paste and by default only the last three which are local changes, are deselected.
I am going to go ahead and select Local Adjustments because I want to see what those Brush Adjustments and Gradial Filters look like when applied to Sam here. So having done that I'll go ahead and click OK and that will change the file like so, and you can see that he now has the sort of dinosaur shapes painted on his face along with the other settings. Now you might expect him to look a lot like the dinosaur image, that is the blues would be bright and the oranges would be shiny and that kind of stuff, but we are starting with a totally different photograph that was shot under different circumstances.
So we are going to get very different results. All right. That was a fairly absurd demonstration. But there is a method to my madness here. I am going to go up to California coast.dng and right-click on it and then choose Develop Settings and choose Copy Settings, and now I'll scroll back down to Sam here and I'll right-click on him and choose Develop Settings. But before I can choose Paste Settings, I need to get rid of those Local Adjustments. So any time you apply Local Adjustments this way, you need to clear them before you apply different settings because otherwise they will stay there.
So I am going to choose Clear Settings, and incidentally, when you choose Clear Settings you get rid of everything, you wipe out the Camera Raw settings, you wipe out the Crop Settings, you wipe out the Local Adjustments, the only thing that stays intact is your snapshots, they will remain. All right. So I'll go ahead and choose Clear Settings. That restores the original version of the file without the Local Adjustments. Now I'll right-click in the thumbnail, choose Develop Settings again, and then choose Paste Settings, up comes the dialog box, this time with those same settings in place, Local Adjustments automatically turns itself off, I'll go ahead and click OK, and we end up with this final version of the effect which is quite different than what we had before and makes Sam look like he's gone back in time and gotten cast in a silent movie.
And those are three very special things that you can do with Camera Raw images from Bridge.

35 year old man | San Diego, CA, USA | Seeking women 22-35 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
Just let me be great...me and destiny got a date!!!
I am a San Diego native, Point Loma to be exact and currently living in Mission Valley. I am one set of two twins in my family. My twin sister and two older sisters are extremely close. I am half Portuguese/Mexican which means I come from a crazy, (in a good way) loud, family! Being that I have three sisters I can appreciate a girl with a sense of style and can dress well. I would also like her to keep me mentally stimulated, meaning she has to be smart, not rocket science smart, but you know what I mean. She has to have some goals and drive and is not meandering aimlessly through life. She has to have a sense of humor and it'd be good if she can cook because I can too. My four main qualities are that I am handsome, smart, driven, and VERY funny (not in that order....well maybe in that order!!) I am adventurous and always up to try new things. Things that make me smile: love music, dancing, trying new restaurants, hanging with family and friends, working out, football, and snowboarding. I consider myself down to earth and easy going, so meeting people and making the best out of any situation comes pretty naturally. This may or may not be of interest to you ladies, but I have never had a Facebook account or any other popular social media accounts, therefore you wont get any nonsense from me (nothing against FB users). I do have a LinkedIn account, but I NEED it for work and that's it. That may or may not be refreshing to you ladies, but doesn't it make me mysterious? *forgive all my selfie pics*
Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Dancing, Football, Martial arts, Other types of exercise, Soccer, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
Me and my sisters share joint custody of our Pomeranian named Rocco
Downtown, North Park or wherever the wind blows
San Diego State University, San Diego, CA

About the Seller
Seller Description
eForCity is a one-stop shopping destination for all the electronic accessories you'll ever need in your home or on the go. Having made the Inc 500 in 2006 and the Internet Retailer Top 500 e-retailer list last year, you may run into us or Jack, one of the founding eForCitizens in the media. Minus the glitz, we just want to be the guy who's got your back when your dog chews up your charger. You know those mom-n-pop stores that seem to have everything under the sun, with the friendly guy up-front who knows his gadgets and lets you use the employee bathroom? That, is what we strive to be style line-height: As our business continues to grow, we will continue to bring you the latest cell phone accessories, camera accessories, MP3 accessories, AV cables, gaming accessories, computer accessories and flying animals. Yes, even flying animals (sometimes, even we're not sure if we run the business or if they do). eForCity was conceived on one fateful night in 2000. We were sitting in a garage and contemplating life. After the second slice of pizza, an idea came to our young adventurous minds. No, we didn't start a rock band, even though that would have been cool. We decided that the world has had enough of overpriced gadget accessories and something needed to be done. So, we started selling bargain electronic accessories online right from that garage, with a makeshift warehouse made of cardboard boxes. Soon after, eForCity.com was born. Ten years later, eForCity has grown to be a go-to destination for gadget lovers, bargain hunters, geeks and all the cool kids alike. Sometimes we can't believe we've grown so much either. Though we are pretty sentimental about that garage, our sunny California headquarter has been home to eForCitizens since 2000. Complete with an ever- expanding warehouse, we insist on shipping locally to guarantee you the best quality fulfillment and most efficient delivery. Did we mention our warehouse also has a colony of flying monkeys?

text: What more can be written about 1967's Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band? Beyond the fact that it was the last time The Beatles truly worked together as a united band, it also established the LP as an art form and influenced countless rock groups that followed. "Sgt. Pepper was our greatest endeavor," Ringo said in 2000. "The greatest thing about the band was that whoever had the best idea – and it didn't matter who – that was the one we'd use."
