DOE Proposes Higher Energy Efficiency for Vending Machines
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing a new energy-efficiency standard for cold-drink vending machines. Under the new proposal, refrigerated vending machines with glass or plastic front panels that dispense drinks in cans or bottles could be required to cut energy consumption by up to 42 percent, or 15 percent for more traditional solid front machines, reports Energy Efficiency News. The proposed regulations are open for comment until the end of July.
According to the DOE, the new regulations could save as much as 10-billion-kilowatt hours of electricity over 30 years, which is equivalent to the annual electricity usage of 800,000 homes, and reduce costs by $250 million for vending machine owners.
PepsiCo is already testing new vending machines that are 15 percent more efficient that the current average. The company recently launched a pilot program in the Washington, D.C. area, to test these climate-friendly, vending machines. The beverage company says this marks the first time that vending machines cooled by CO2 have been introduced in the United States. PepsiCo is also testing thousands of machines around the world that use other green refrigerants, such as isobutane and propane, that also have a lower climate impact than current HFC refrigerants.
Coca-Cola is also testing new climate-friendly, HFC-free, energy-efficient coolers and vending machines in Washington, D.C., at the House of Representatives. The company may deploy up to 1,800 energy-efficient vending machines around the U.S. and Canada later this year.

Since this has already been decided by a jury, there shouldn't be any more money
pumped into this charade. If his attorney's want to volunteer their time
because they feel strongly that he is a victim (it's pretty hard to type that
without puking), then let them donate their own resources.
Cases like these should not be permanent employment for a few attorneys. My goodness, lock up the guilty and give the innocent their rightful taste of freedom, closure and fresh air.

About this item
Important Made in USA Origin Disclaimer: For certain items sold by Walmart on Walmart.com, the displayed country of origin information may not be accurate or consistent with manufacturer information. For updated, accurate country of origin data, it is recommended that you rely on product packaging or manufacturer information.
A fathomless source of profound non-sequiturs, MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS has supplanted Shakespeare as the British variety act most quoted by people who haven't actually seen the original show in the original order as it is here. In fact, Monty Python is nearly indistinguishable from Shakespeare, except that the lines don't rhyme and there are very few bodkins or codpieces. There are, however, British accents and men in drag - two well-known staples of Shakespearean drama. And most of the members of Monty Python's Flying Circus are still alive.

Shuttle SB65G2 XPC with ClearView cover - The Little guy packing a Big punch
Quake 3
Quake III Arena is a real-world OpenGL benchmark that we have been using here at TweakTown for quite a while now because it has proven itself to be one of the best gaming benchmarks around to compare a wide range of different products. Quake III is getting very old, but is still the best way of testing video and PC systems for any instabilities and best performance.
Quake 3 is a bit of pointless benchmark these days but with all of that aside the MAX3 has a useless 15FPS on the Shuttle.
Moving to a higher resolution, as you would expect we see a huge amount of FPS at very playable speeds. Keep in mind though, there could be a difference of 150 FPS and the game would still be very playable on both machines.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to utility boxes such as those used to provide access to drain and supply lines in a wall in order to facilitate the installation of a washing machine.
2. Description of the Related Art
Washing machines are typically provided with connections for hot and cold water supply hoses and with a drain hose through which waste water is expelled. These hoses need to be connected to respective hot and cold water supply lines and to a drain line. The supply lines and drain line are typically located inside a wall in stud bays formed between respective wall studs. A laundry box is used to provide access to the supply lines and drain line through a finished wall so that the respective hoses can be connected.
A typical laundry box comprises a box having a pair of side walls, top and bottom end walls, a back wall and an open front or face. The bottom wall will include a drain opening through which the drain line can be accessed. A pair of supply line openings for admitting the supply lines into the box are formed in either the top or bottom wall, depending upon the direction from which the supply lines are plumbed. Hot and cold water shut-off valves are mounted inside the box in communication with the respective hot and cold supply lines. Mounting flanges are generally provided on the box for connecting it to one or more nearby wall studs. Wallboard is fastened to the wall studs, leaving a wall opening aligned with the front of the laundry box. When a washing machine is installed, the hot and cold supply hoses are run into the laundry box through the wall opening and connected to the respective hot and cold shut-off valves. Similarly, the washing machine drain hose is run into the laundry box through the wall opening and inserted into the drain line through the drain opening.
In order to make installation of the laundry box more flexible, various improved laundry boxes have been developed which provide alternative openings for the drain line and/or supply lines. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,129,109 to Humber discloses a laundry box having drain openings in both end walls so that the box can used both in installations where the supply lines come from above the laundry box and installations where the supply lines come from below the laundry box. Other patents such as U.S. Pat. No. 6,125,881 to Hobbs et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,934,410 to Humber, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,155,286 to Geary disclose laundry boxes which are adaptable to allow the supply lines to be located either to the left or right side of the drain line.
One type of installation not allowed for by any of the prior art is one where the drain line is located on the opposite side of a wall stud from the supply lines, i.e. one where the drain line is plumbed in a stud bay adjacent to the one in which the supply lines are located. One advantage to being able to plumb the drain line in this manner is that it allows a drain line having a complete S-trap to be installed in a single stud bay without cutting (and thereby weakening) any of the wall studs.
What is needed is a laundry box system which is versatile enough to allow the supply lines to come in from different directions, such as either the top or bottom, to be on either side of the drain opening, and to be on the opposite side of a wall stud from the drain line.
The present invention is a modular utility box system which includes a supply box having at least one supply opening sized to receive a water supply line and a separate drain box having a drain opening sized to receive a drain line. The supply box and the drain box are interconnectable in multiple configurations such that the supply box may be positioned to the right or left of the drain box and may be oriented with its supply opening or openings directed in multiple orientations, including either upwardly or downwardly. The boxes may be interconnected using a generally U-shaped clip having legs which are selectively engageable with any of the box sidewalls. The legs of the clip are spaced apart a distance selected to receive the narrow dimension of a standard wall stud therebetween such that the drain and supply boxes may be positioned on opposite sides of a stud. The clip can also be fastened to the stud using conventional fasteners such as nails or screw, and thus acts both to inter-connect the drain and supply boxes and to fasten the boxes to the wall.
For installations where the supply box and drain box are to be positioned side-by-side in the same stud bay, additional brackets are used to fasten the boxes to the wall studs. A second generally U-shaped clip can be connected to a free side wall of one of the boxes and used to attach the already interconnected supply and drain boxes to an adjacent wall stud. Alternatively, the free side wall can be mounted directly to a stud using mounting flanges and nail guides formed in the box. The end walls of the boxes include bracket receiving slots or grooves or both sized to receive elongate mounting brackets for mounting the boxes between adjacent studs. A pair of the elongate mounting brackets can be mutually received through the bracket receiving slots and grooves of both the supply and drain boxes with one bracket positioned above the boxes and one below.
As required, detailed embodiments of the present invention are disclosed herein; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, which may be embodied in various forms. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a basis for the claims and as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present invention in virtually any appropriately detailed structure. The drawings constitute a part of this specification and include exemplary embodiments of the present invention and illustrate various objects and features thereof.
Certain terminology will be used in the following description for convenience in reference only and will not be limiting. For example, the words "upwardly," "downwardly," "rightwardly," and "leftwardly" will refer to directions in the drawings to which reference is made. The words "inwardly" and "outwardly" will refer to directions toward and away from, respectively, the geometric center of the embodiment being described and designated parts thereof. Said terminology will include the words specifically mentioned, derivatives thereof and words of a similar import.
Referring to the drawings in more detail, the reference number 1 generally designates a modular utility or laundry box system according to the present invention. As shown in
The washing machine water supply lines may be connected to the supply lines 3 and 5 in wall 9 using connector assemblies or hookups 16 and 17. Each hookup 16 and 17 includes first and second connectors 18 and 19 which are mounted on opposite sides of a shut-off valve 20. Each of the wall mounted water supply lines 3 and 5 are connected to a respective first connector 18 and the washing machine water supply lines 13 and 14 (not shown) are connected to a respective second connector 19. The shut-off valves 20 may both be operated by a single valve actuator 21 or by separate actuators (not shown). Each of the hookups 16 and 17 may further include a water hammer arrester 22. The connector assemblies or hookups 16 and 17 may be considered as forming a portion of a respective water supply line 3 or 5 and may also be considered part of the laundry box system 1.
Referring to
Referring to
If it is desired that the supply box 24 be useable as an ice-maker supply box, a single supply line opening 39 may be provided generally centrally in the first end wall 33 of the supply box 24, as shown in the alternative embodiment of
Referring to
As best seen in
A removable closure member or knockout 57 initially covers the drain line opening 51 and permits pressure testing of the drain line 7. The closure member 57 can be removed after pressure testing to permit insertion of the washing machine drain hose (not shown) into the drain line 7. The closure member 57 is similar in construction to the closure member or disk described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,769,291 of Julian et al. the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The closure member 57 includes a circular disc or wall 59 with a peripheral rim including an inner rim section 61 and an outer rim section 62. A lower outer edge of the inner rim section 61 is connected to the upper inner edge of the pipe stop 54 by a region of reduced thickness to cause shearing of the inner rim section 61 from the pipe stop 54 upon application of a shearing force to the removable closure member 57. A portion of the outer rim section 62 is enlarged to form a tab 63 which may be readily grasped with a pair of pliers or the like to facilitate separation of the closure member 57 from the drain box 25. The tab 63 is positioned near the front of the drain box 25 to facilitate access thereto. It is also possible to separate the closure member 57 from the pipe stop 54 by pounding on the outer rim section 62 with a hammer or the like. The outer diameter of the closure member 57 is sized to be larger than the inner diameter of the drain line 7 received within the collar 53 so that the closure member 57 will not fall into the drain line 7 when removed from the drain box 25.
With reference to
Referring to
A pair of ratchet strips 70 are formed on both the upper and lower, outer surfaces of each collar 66 and 67. As best seen in
Each of the boxes 24 and 25 includes a variety of structures to facilitate mounting of the boxes 24 and 25 in a wall 9 including the U-shaped clips 26 and the elongated brackets or bars 27 which permit mounting of the boxes 24 and 25 in various arrangements or configurations, including on the same or opposite sides of a stud 11 and with the supply box 24 oriented with the first end wall 33 (in which the supply line openings 37 are formed) positioned as the bottom end wall or the top end wall.
Referring to
A pair of hollow, cylindrical, fastener guides 77 are mounted to and above both the second end wall 35 of the supply box 24 and the top end wall 47 of the drain box 25, with one fastener guide 77 positioned proximate each sidewall of the pairs of sidewalls 29 and 43. When, for example, the supply box 24 is positioned with one of its sidewalls 29 against a side of a stud 11 and the mounting flanges 72 projecting outward from that sidewall 29 are secured to the front of the stud 11, another fastener can be driven through the fastener guide 77 associated with the respective sidewall 29 and into the side of the stud 11 to provide lateral or side to side support for the supply box 24. Each fastener guide 77 is mounted to the associated end wall 35 or 47 by web 78 and support wall 79 at an angle to facilitate driving a fastener into the stud 11 at a selected angle.
The U-shaped clips 26, one of which is shown in
The legs 81 are sized to be received in slots 84 formed in the sidewalls 29 and 43 of the boxes 24 and 25 respectively. As can be seen in
As noted previously, the legs 81 are spaced apart a distance sufficient to receive the narrow dimension of a stud 11 therebetween. One or more fastener receiving holes 91 are formed in the clip front plate 83 to facilitate mounting of the clip 26 to the front face of a stud 11. As shown in
The clip 26, is sized to space the vertical edges of the sidewalls 29 and 43 farthest from the stud 11 the proper distance apart to align the edges of the boxes 24 and 25 with the first and second frame collars 66 and 67 of cover plate 28. The L-shaped guides 85 and 86 are also positioned on the sidewalls 29 and 43 to position the pawls 71 formed along the front edge of the drain box top end wall 47 in horizontal alignment with the pawls 71 formed along the front edge of either the first or second end wall 33 or 35 of the supply box 24 (depending on which of the endwalls 33 or 35 is positioned on top) when the boxes 24 and 25 are secured together by the clip 26. The clip 26 thereby ensures that the pawls 71 will be properly aligned with the ratchet strips 70 on each of the cover plate collars 66 and 67.
Referring again to
As shown in
With reference to
Grooves 103 are formed in the drain box bottom end wall 49 (see
In applications in which the supply box 24 is inverted to position the first end wall 33 and the supply line openings 37 on top or above the second end wall 35 as shown in
Depending on the desired installation, the system 1 may be installed using various combinations of the mounting flanges 72 and nail guides 77, the U-shaped clips 26 and the mounting brackets 27 to interconnect the boxes 24 and 25 and to connect or mount the boxes 24 and 25 to one or more of the wall studs 11. If, for example, it is desired that the boxes 24 and 25 be located adjacent to and on opposite sides of a stud 11 as in
Once the boxes 24 and 25 are connected, the U-shaped clip 26 is pushed over the stud 11 until the front plate 83 is seated against the stud 11. The system 1 is retained in position by driving fasteners into the stud 11 through the fastener receiving holes 73 in the mounting flanges 72 adjacent the stud 11, and through the fastener openings 91 in the clip front plate 83. Fasteners are driven through the associated nail guides 77 to secure the boxes 24 and 25 to the side of the stud 11 and help retain the system 1 in position. Elongate mounting brackets 27 may be threaded through aligned slots 101 and grooves 103 in the in the boxes 24 and 25 and fastened to the stud 11 to provide additional vertical rigidity for the system.
If it is desired that the boxes 24 and 25 be installed side-by-side and between a pair of studs 11 a and 11 b as generally shown in
It is also foreseen that one or more boxes 24 and 25 could be supported on mounting brackets 27 spanning the gap between two adjacent studs 11 a and 11 b without use of a clip 26 to connect either the supply box 24 or the drain box 25 to either stud 11 a or 11 b as shown in
Once the system 1 has been installed using one of the above methods and the associated plumbing including the drain line 7 and supply lines 11 are in place, the wallboard 10 can be installed over the studs 11 and generally flush with the front edges of the boxes 24 and 25. After the wallboard is finished, the cover plate 28 is installed to cover the edges of the wallboard and give the boxes 24 and 25 a smooth, finished appearance.
It is to be understood that while certain forms of the present invention have been illustrated and described herein, it is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangement of parts described and shown. For example, it is foreseen that the supply box and the drain box could be connected together by a cross-member integrally molded with the supply box and the drain box to form an assembly formed as a single molded piece of plastic. The cross member would effectively replace the front plate 83 of clip 26 and provide the proper spacing between the drain and supply boxes and provide means for mounting the supply and drain boxes on opposite sides of a stud with the stud received between the boxes. Fastener receiving openings would preferably be formed in the cross member to facilitate connection of the boxes to the stud positioned therebetween. As used in the claims, identification of an element with an indefinite article "a" or "an" or the phrase "at least one" is intended to cover any device assembly including one or more of the elements at issue. Similarly, references to first and second elements is not intended to limit the claims to such assemblies including only two of the elements, but rather is intended to cover two or more of the elements at issue. Only where limiting language such as "a single" or "only one" with reference to an element, is the language intended to be limited to one of the elements specified, or any other similarly limited number of elements.

For Federal Computer Week's 25th anniversary issue, we highlight some of the people, policies and technologies that have influenced federal IT. Although it is not possible to include all the dynamic and dedicated people who have been or still are a part of this marketplace, we start with some who have left their mark.
When Mark Forman took on the role of associate director of IT and e-government at the Office of Management and Budget in 2001, the position essentially functioned as the first federal CIO. At the time, the debate over that new function focused on whether the person should be a technology geek or a business transformation guru. Forman accepted the challenge on the condition that he would be a transformer rather than a technologist.
The size of that challenge became clear in his first week on the job when he received a report related to the implementation of the Government Information Security Reform Act. It marked the first time anyone knew how many information systems the government had, how secure they were, and how much agencies were spending on IT and cybersecurity. The report also uncovered large sums of money that had previously been unaccounted for.
"We had a billion dollars of IT at the National Nuclear Security Administration that we never knew about until the GISRA report," said Forman, who is co-founder of Government Transaction Services. "Not only was the report useful for cybersecurity, but it was also useful for getting that inventory of government IT."
In addition to managing more than $58 billion in IT investments, Forman led President George W. Bush's e-government and e-business initiatives to create a more productive, citizen-centric government. Forman's efforts included simplifying the FirstGov portal using a "three clicks to service" model, creating the first IRS free filing website under a public/private partnership and establishing a rigorous cybersecurity improvement process. His role at OMB was later codified as administrator of the Office of E-Government and IT as required under the E-Government Act.
"Mark played a key role…setting up the framework for that office and moving the agencies quickly into e-government," said Olga Grkavac, executive vice president for the public sector at TechAmerica. "He helped make e-government [into] government, and now, no one really uses the term 'e-government' anymore. It's just government."
Forman said change needs to come from the top. "Unfortunately, one of the biggest ways you get change is when you have a crisis," he said. "Our crisis was 9/11, and it became very clear to everybody that we had to work together."
Paul Brubaker, president of Silver Lining and former deputy CIO at the Defense Department, said Forman was successful because of his vision and ability to make change happen. He had "one of the best and most effective approaches to transforming government that I've ever witnessed," Brubaker said.

I'm writing this review to obtain a free gift card from All-Pro...but I would have done it anyways. My doctor suggested All-Pro as a reputable PT facility for strength training prior to having shoulder surgery. I make the majority of my consumer decisions based upon reviews ...moreand All-Pro had an excellent reputation so I went with my doctor's suggestion and couldn't have been more pleased. Matt did my initial evaluation and strengthening program for approximately a month prior to surgery. He listened to all of my concerns and took the time to explain anything I wanted to know about in detail, all without a sense that he was doing it for the thousandth time. He genuinely cares about helping you get through your issue. Post surgery my doctor urged me to use his on-site PT facility due to the nature of my injury. I seriously considered it but decided to go back to All-Pro based on my pre-surgery experience and was not disappointed. Matt again started my recovery but as new patients came in and my recovery progressed I started working with nearly everyone on the staff. Tracy, Steve, Jeff, Danica, Jill (from the Canton facility), and Raj (the owner) are all down-to-earth, pleasant people who deserve to work under the name All-Pro. I got to know most of them over the course of my 4.5 months working with them and never dreaded a visit. For my particular injury I was able to become self-sufficient as my recovery progressed and eventually felt like I was just going in to chat with friends while I worked out for an hour each session. They kept a watchful eye, let me do what I needed to do and would joke around. I saw them treat various other people during my time there and it was obvious that I wasn't receiving any type of special treatment. I highly recommend All-Pro PT.view less

I am a Registered Nurse and I am very picky about who I choose as a healthcare partner. Naturally, when I needed Physical therapy (PT) after a total hip replacement, I asked my daughter, who happens to be a PT practicing in Chicago, to activate her network of colleagues and...more find the name of the best PT in my area. Raj at All Pro Physical Therapy was acknowledged as the best there is. Now, after completing my therapy and having gained strength, flexibility, and balance I totally agree! Raj directed my recovery with a thoughtful progression of exercises that helped me transition from depending on a walker, to using a cane, and now fully walking on my own. The course of therapy wasn't easy but I always felt encouraged by Raj. The atmosphere of the facility was very positive, with fun conversation between the staff and patients. I really felt like everyone there cared about me as a person. I was always greeted by name with a warm and genuine smile from the Receptionist when I arrived. The facility was maintained spotless. I hope I never need PT again, but if I do I will return to Raj without hesitation because I know he provides expert care with a personal touch.view less
I recently went to All-Pro to receive PT for a bulging disc in my neck. I was in tremendous pain when I called and Leslie was able to get me in that day. Steve performed a detailed evaluation of my condition and began my therapy, which immediately decompressed the injured di...moresc and eliminated the stabbing pain that I experienced. Through Steve (and other therapists') efforts, he was able to relieve the debilitating burning and numbness that was caused by the disc impingement. I was very impressed with the quality of care and compassion that I received from Steve and the other therapists at All-Pro. They were also able to work with my schedule so that I could receive my PT after work. I am anticipating both back and knee surgery in the near future. I will return to All-Pro and I highly recommend them. Paul Grandahlview less

Was the baby measuring smaller or anything? And could you maybe be off on your dates?
Praying for healthy!
Little Lady ~ born at 33 weeks
Did your doctor say more than this? Did he order any follow-up labs? What were previous ultrasounds like? This can be a bad sign, depending on the progression of other markers, but if that is the sole data point, I'd go back in a few days and see whether someone missed something...
Like, your conception date/due date. Maybe you are earlier along than you thought? My doc saw a h/b at 8 weeks and a few days and not at 7 weeks and a few days...
Good luck! Unless you are being sparse on the details, it seems like your doc didn't give you that much info...
Go to the ER or another Dr as by this time they should be able to see one using a vaginal or abdominal. I went to ER yesterday and it was hard to see anything doing vaginal because my uterus is tilted. She did abdominal and bean was well and hb still going strong. Did they only do one or both?
Sadly no heartbeat at 8 weeks usually does mean a miscarriage. But it sounds like you might be unsure of your dates.

Costs for non-contractual LTL shipping rates will increase 6.9% on average.
Online retailers that occasionally deliver or receive orders of over 150 pounds via United Parcel Service will pay an average of 6.9% more for less-than-truckload shipments starting Aug. 1, UPS said today. Such shipments do not require a full trailer, meaning it involves relatively small loads of freight.
UPS announced the rate hike in response to increased costs for technology that support its logistics operations and a $1 dollar per gallon rise in the price of diesel fuel since the last such rate increase, a UPS spokesman says. UPS last increased less-than-truckload non-contractual rates in October, when they rose 5.9%, he adds.
The 6.9% rate hike does not immediately extend to shippers' contracts with UPS for ongoing shipments; such contracts are negotiated individually.
Ken Wood, president of shipping advisory firm LJM Consulting, says the rate hike also stems from changes in shipping volume available to carriers, who are getting more choosey about if and when they'll handle shipments of bulky items like furniture and treadmills from online retailers to consumers' homes. Unlike shipments to companies, shipments to homes must deal with a lack of loading docks, freight-handling equipment and personnel trained in receiving goods, often requiring the carrier to bear additional costs such as running specially equipped trucks with lift gates for unloading heavy items, Wood says. "Carriers are looking at what's not profitable for them to carry," he adds.
As a result, carriers are requiring higher minimum per-item shipping fees—in many cases rising about 30% to $85 from $65—with additional surcharges for special equipment and other services, Wood says.
LJM works with UPS and dozens of other carriers to negotiate contracts on behalf of about 35 e-commerce retailers. Wood notes that it's possible to reduce the 6.9% rate hike to a hike of about 3%, but that retailers and other shippers may still have to absorb surcharges and increases in minimum fees.
The rate hike, however, also coincides with long-range improvements UPS is making to its operations, says Jack Mitchell, president and CEO of shipping consultants PANCGroup. "UPS making such investments during a slowing economy indicates a strong commitment to growing their LTL business, which will be to the benefit of shippers," he says.
The hike does not affect small-parcel shipments, for which UPS increased rates by an average of 4.9% in January.
