1. Technical Field
This disclosure relates generally to an inkjet carriage unit and an image forming apparatus, such as an inkjet recording apparatus, using the same.
2. Description of the Related Art
Image forming apparatuses such as inkjet recording apparatuses have a scanning part that causes a carriage having recording heads mounted thereon to scan paper in a predetermined scanning direction while guiding the carriage with a guide rod. The recording heads are driven based on image data during scanning by the carriage so that an image is formed. In general, these inkjet recording apparatuses include a linear scale bearing marks for detecting the position of printing heads, and a read sensor to read the marks while moving along the linear scale. The linear scale is shaped like an elongated film extending in the scanning direction of the carriage. Its marks are provided at very narrow intervals (for example, 0.084 mm in the case of 300 dpi) (see, for example, Japanese Patent No. 2958131).
In image forming apparatuses such as inkjet recording apparatuses as described above, various modifications such as making many component parts and members replaceable are made so as to make apparatus service life much longer, for example, tenfold. In this respect, there is a need to remove and replace a carriage or replace a light emission part and a light reception part forming an encoder sensor. This is because longer apparatus service life may cause contamination of the encoder sensor, specifically, its light emission part and light reception part, with ink mist, thus causing a problem in that position detection cannot be performed with accuracy.
In order to perform such replacement, first, it is necessary to remove the carriage from a guide rod. In this case, the conventional structure also requires the linear scale to be removed. However, since the marks of the linear scale are arranged at very fine intervals, an operator is prevented from touching the marks with her/his hand. This is because the sebum of the hand adheres to the marks of the linear scale through touching them so as to prevent the marks from being read. Therefore, according to the conventional structure, it is almost impossible to actually remove and replace the carriage.
In an aspect of this disclosure, an inkjet carriage unit is provided in which it is possible to replace a carriage or an encoder sensor without removing a linear scale so that an operator can work without the fear of touching the linear scale.
In another aspect, an inkjet recording apparatus and an image forming apparatus are provided which employ such an inkjet carriage unit.
In another aspect, an inkjet carriage unit is provided which includes a main body, a sensor holding part detachably attached to the main body, and an encoder sensor attached to the sensor holding part.
In another aspect of this disclosure, a carriage and an encoder sensor can be replaced without removing a linear scale. As a result, an operator is less likely to touch the linear scale with her/his hand.
In another aspect, an inkjet recording apparatus including an inkjet carriage unit is provided according to one embodiment of the present invention.
In another aspect, an image forming apparatus including an inkjet carriage unit is provided according to one embodiment of the present invention.
Other aspects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
A description is given below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, of embodiments of the present invention.
The print mechanism part 2 holds the carriage 13 with a main guide rod 11 so that the carriage 13 is slidable in the main scanning directions. The main guide rod 11 is provided between Y1-side and Y2-side side plates (not graphically illustrated). The recording head 14 including inkjet heads ejecting ink droplets of respective colors of yellow (Y), cyan (C), magenta (M), and black (Bk) is attached to this carriage 13 so that the ink droplets are ejected downward (in the Z2 direction). The sub tanks 12 for supplying color inks to the recording head 14 are attached to an upper part of the carriage 13.
Each sub tank 12 is connected through an ink supply tube 16 to a corresponding one of replaceably attached ink tanks 15, so that a corresponding one of the color inks is supplied therefrom to the sub tank 12. The main guide rod 11 passes through an X1-side part of the carriage 13 (a upstream-side part of the carriage 13 in the paper conveyance direction) so that the carriage 13 is slidable on the main guide rod 11. In order to cause the carriage 13 to move and scan in the main scanning directions, a timing belt 20 is engaged with a drive pulley 18 rotated by a main scanning motor 17 and a driven pulley 19 so as to be stretched therebetween, and the timing belt 20 is fixed to the carriage 13.
On the other hand, in order to convey the paper 3 set in the paper feed cassette 4 to the lower (Z2) side of the recording head 14, a paper feed roller 21 and a friction pad 22 to separate and feed the paper 3 from the paper feed cassette 4, a guide member 23 to guide the paper 3, a conveyance roller 24 to convey the fed paper 3 in a reversed position (upside down), a conveyance roller 25 to be pressed against the cylindrical surface of the conveyance roller 24, and an edge roller 26 to determine an angle at which the paper 3 is fed out from the conveyance roller 24 are provided. The conveyance roller 24 is rotated by a sub scanning motor 27 through a gear train.
An electrostatic conveyor belt 29 to guide the paper 3 fed from the conveyance roller 24 below the recording head 14 is provided in correspondence to the range of movement of the carriage 13 in the main scanning directions. The electrostatic conveyor belt 29 is charged by a charger 30 so as to attract the conveyed paper 3 so that the paper 3 adheres to the electrostatic conveyor belt 29, thereby keeping the surface of the paper 3 and the surface of the recording head 14 in parallel with each other. A paper output roller 33 to send out the paper 3 onto the paper output tray 6 is provided on the downstream side of the electrostatic conveyor belt 29 in the paper conveyance direction.
If necessary, a paper reversing unit 8 and a paper feed unit 9 may be attached to the main body 1 as shown in
As graphically illustrated, the carriage 13 includes the sensor holding member 50 for holding an encoder sensor 40. The sensor holding member 50 is provided at a position obliquely upward from an insertion part 13A through which the main guide rod 11 passes. That is, the sensor holding member 50 is provided at a position above and offset at an angle from the insertion part 13A. The sensor holding member 50 is attachable and detachable (removable) in the vertical directions (or along the Z-axis indicated by the double-headed arrow in
The sensor holding member 50 includes a holding part 53 that can pass through the opening 51 and a base plate part 54 that does not pass through the opening 51, and is formed into a T letter shape. The encoder sensor 40 is held by the holding part 53, being attached to the vicinity of a lower end of the holding part 53. It is desirable that the encoder sensor 40 be detachable from and reattachable to the holding part 53. The encoder sensor 40 includes a groove part 42 through which a linear scale 41 passes. A light emission part 43 is provided on one side and a light reception part 44 is provided on the other side on the interior surface of the groove part 42 so as to read the marks of the linear scale 41 as described above, thereby detecting the position of the carriage 13. The positions of the light emission part 43 and the light reception part 44 shown in
A guide part 55 is provided on the lower end of the sensor holding member 50 so as to protrude therefrom in such a manner as to receive the encoder sensor 40. The lower end surface of the guide part 55 is formed like a slope that is lower on the side of the main body 13 a of the carriage 13 and higher on the side of the encoder sensor 40. As a result, even if the slope (lower end surface) of the guide part 55 comes into contact with the linear scale 41 in attaching the sensor holding member 50, the slope serves as a slide guide and does not become a load on the linear scale 41. The linear scale 41 may have a tape-like shape.
That is, according to this embodiment, removal and replacement of the carriage 13 and removal and replacement of the encoder sensor 40 are performed by first releasing fixation of the base plate part 54 of the sensor holding member 50 to the attachment part 52 of the carriage 13, then pulling the entire body of the sensor holding member 50 upward, and extracting the holding member 53 through the opening 51. If a configuration does not allow the encoder sensor 40 to pass through the opening 51, the encoder sensor 40 may be detached from the holding part 53 with the sensor holding member 50 being pulled halfway up. As a result, it is possible to extract the main guide rod 11 and remove the carriage 13 without the possibility of touching the linear scale 41. Even if the main guide rod 11 or the carriage 13 comes into contact with the linear scale 41 during this operation, there is hardly any problem. Further, the carriage 13 and the encoder sensor 40 may be attached in the opposite procedure to the one described above.
Further, in the first embodiment, the sensor holding member 50 is detachable from and reattachable to the main body 13 a of the carriage 13 in the vertical directions. Alternatively, as shown in
Thus, according to one aspect of the present invention, a carriage and an encoder sensor can be replaced without removing a linear scale. As a result, an operator is less likely to touch the linear scale with her/his hand.
The present invention is not limited to the specifically disclosed embodiments, and variations and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
The present application is based on Japanese Priority Patent Application No. 2005-000422, filed on Jan. 5, 2005, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

As many readers will now have their Philatelic Bulletin for January I thought I would clarify some of the information it contains.
The retail booklet issued on 20 February (see page 130) will contain 4 x 1st Machins and 2 x 1st Footballers, not Locomotives. (The retail booklet is not mentioned on pages 133/4).
For the Spring Blooms Faststamps (page 135) the Post and Go terminals in '146 branches of the Post Office' will dispense Faststamps with their usual branch code, not a 'philatelic Post and Go Code'.
Also, on page 140, John Holman's write-up says that the Spring Blooms are issued on the third day of Stampex: they are actually issued on the first day of Stampex. (Thanks Doug for pointing this out.)
For those interested in PO Training School material here is a different registration label to that shown on page 151 of the Bulletin, and a SPECIMEN postmark.

ObamaCare forces Trig's to limit workers' hours
Submitted: 07/24/2013
Ben Meyer
Executive Producer
- ObamaCare will dig into the pocketbooks of part-time workers at one of the Northwoods' biggest employers.
If Trig's Supermarkets hadn't cut part-time work hours, it would have been out of business within a year.
That's what a consultant told the company.
About two-thirds of the 1,100 Trig's employees are part-time workers.
But if they work more than 30 hours a week, the president's health care legislation technically considers them full time.
That means Trig's would be forced to provide health insurance to those workers.
The report said keeping the work schedules as they were AND providing that health coverage would have been disastrous to the company's bottom line.
"Doing nothing was not an option. It would have put us out of business. Within a year, it would have put us out of business. There's no doubt about that. So obviously we've had to make some changes," says Angie Dreifuerst, Trig's' Vice President of HR, Benefits, and MIS.
Those changes include promoting a few workers to full time.
But the biggest impact comes to the 65 percent of employees working part-time.
They're not allowed to work more than 30 hours per week.
That way, Trig's can avoid considering them full time workers.
"Yeah, they were frustrated, but I believe they also understood why we had to make the decisions that we did. I said, 'this isn't good for you, this isn't good for us, it's not what we want to do either.' Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of options. We have to do what we have to do to comply and stay viable," she says.
Companies like Trig's aren't the only ones facing employment challenges from the Affordable Care Act.
Even school districts like Minocqua-Hazelhurst-Lake Tomahawk have taken steps to make sure their part-time workers stay under the 30 hour threshold.

Brush Run fans, racers tough out weekend's bad storms
Submitted: 06/26/2016
Play Video
- Pounding rain, howling winds, and flashing lightning�"not the most ideal conditions for camping on Saturday night.
In fact, Saturday night's bad weather couldn't have picked a worse time for thousands of people to set up camp at the Crandon Race Track.
"We were holding onto the awning last night," said Keegan Kincaid, a racer from Crandon. ."It was pouring."
"Our canopy [got] rained [on] so much we had to keep pushing it up so it wouldn't collapse," said Paul Posbrig, a fan from Green Bay.
"It was coming in all over," said Jessie Braden, a fan from Richfield.
But for Crandon fans, the rain certainly didn't dampen the weekend.
"But we made the best of it," said Braden, who comes to Crandon every summer for the Brush Run.
"We had a canopy at one point and put up tarps on the walls as we got downpoured on and it was all windy," Braden said. "If we're going camping, it's going to rain!"
The fans also got their fair share of noise because the rain didn't really affect the race schedule.
"We just had to wait a little bit longer before we could put crews out on the track," said the raceway's announcer, Dave Mullins. "So needed it to dry off a little bit first. But really it was only about a half hour."
But it certainly changed the racers' strategy.
"And so you'll see a lot of changes in trucks and driving styles," Kincaid said.
"Figure out the track, sort out where the grip is, where it's wet, where it's dry," said Arie Luyendyk, Jr., a racer from Arizona.
But Crandon's track is pretty resilient.
"Most tracks we wouldn't be able to race on it the next day, but Crandon has a lot of clay," Kincaid said.
"Because this is a clay track, it doesn't absorb the water as much, it makes it more like a mud pit," Mullins said.
Sunday's nice weather quickly brought the track's conditions back to normal.
"I thought we were going to be racing in the mud, but turns out because of the sun and wind we're actually going back to our setup we had yesterday," Luyendyk, Jr., said.

Woman dead after truck versus train collision
Submitted: 06/25/2016
- A truck versus train crash killed a woman late Saturday morning.
According to the Price County Sheriff's Office, it happened at the intersection of County Road D and the Canadian National Railroad tracks in the Township of Knox.
Police think a 76-year-old man was driving the truck with a 76-year-old woman in the passenger seat, and the truck and the train collided.
Several different agencies responded, including Canadian National Railroad investigators.
Crews took the man to St. Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield, and they took the woman to Aspirus Hospital in Wausau where she later died.
Police are still investigating and will not yet release the names.

Star power too much for Swedes
Kearney Catholic prevails 50-34.
KEARNEY—Gothenburg's girls know their offense runs through senior Emily Max.
They've come to depend on her double-digit scoring and consistent rebounding.
Max gave the Swedes solid production at Kearney Catholic Saturday putting in 26 points and grabbing eight rebounds.
It just wasn't enough to overcome the Stars' fire power as Kearney Catholic downed the Swedes 50-34.
"Emily had a nice weekend for us," said coach Tim Peterson. "She really works hard and this weekend she was productive with that hard work. We just need her supporting cast to relax and put the ball in the basket."
Kearney Catholic led 24-18 at halftime.
"We knew we were out-manned in every position and still we were only down six points at halftime," Peterson said. "I felt really good about that."
But in the third period, Gothenburg struggled to score at all, putting only three points on the board.
"Aside from our outside shooting, that was probably our best overall game of the season," Peterson said. "We were intense the whole night and played really good defense. We did everything we needed to do to win except put more points on the board."
The Swedes move to 5-9 heading into the Southwest Conference tournament.
Gothenburg hosted Cozad in the first round of the SWC tourney Tuesday night.
Complete results can be found in next week's issue.

Rosie O'Donnell Grieves Over Her Dog's Death
Sad news comes from a comedian, Rosie O'Donnell. On Friday, October 12, her dog was dead due to his old age. She tweeted about her big loss, saying, "RIP NICKY O BOY - r miami born rescue dog - loyal smart nearly perfect for over a dozen years ...," and posting a picture of her dog.
Rosie adopted Nicky from an animal shelter 13 years ago, according to PEOPLE. He was loyal, smart and nearly a perfect dog for Rosie as she mentioned it in her tweet. A good protecter for her family, he will always be a part of Rosie's family although he's already gone.
"One day, when Blake was 2 years old we were all snow tubing on the hill and Blake jumped in the tube and it started going down," she wrote in an e-mail to PEOPLE. "Nicky put his paws on the tube and held it so Blake wouldn't go down alone."
The death of Rosie's dog happened just a few months after she tied the knot with her new wife, Michelle Rounds, whom she began dating in summer 2011. She previously was married to Kelli Carpenter and has four children.
The former married couple adopted Parker, now 17-year-old boy, Chelsea, now 15-year-old girl, and Blake, now 12-year-old boy. They also have a daughter named Vivienne through artificial insemination.

$50 Oil Doesn't Work
$50 per barrel oil is clearly less impossible to live with than $30 per barrel oil, because most businesses cannot make a profit with $30 per barrel oil. But is $50 per barrel oil helpful?

In Vermont, a famously beautiful and progressive land that has also offered us a viable presidential candidate, there was virtually unanimous support in the legislature for recognizing limits to economic growth, the problems caused by growth, and the solutions inherent to a steady state economy.
It is time to reframe the debate to recognize that we have pushed growth in material consumption beyond Earth's environmental limits.
The people's voice has taken centre stage once again in recent months, in which a call for sharing is palpable in the many agendas for social justice and true democracy.
Public health is an alternative indicator of well-being and is strongly correlated to levels of equality or inequality. Greater equality means greater well-being for everyone and a smaller need for the state – yet inequality has been increasing dramatically.
Politics in the United States subsists on a single myth whose narrative is central to all positions, even most of the ones located at the fringe.
Every human society without exception gives some members more say in making decisions than others.
Opening a newspaper or listening to the radio news exposes us to a flood of catastrophic messages: devastating droughts, failing states, terrorist attacks, and financial crashes.
The existing economy is already environmentally unsustainable. It is utterly implausible to think we can "decouple" economic growth from environmental impact so significantly, especially since recent decades of extraordinary technological advancement have only increased our impacts …
An alarming new study has shown that the world's forests are not only disappearing rapidly, but that areas of "core forest"...are vanishing even faster.

The main suspect in a legendary art heist is said to have whispered with his dying breath: "Only I know where the 'Adoration' is..."
More than seven decades later, the whereabouts of a panel belonging to one of Western art's defining works, the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, also known as the Ghent Altarpiece, remains a mystery.
If the stunning heist of Picasso, Monet and Matisse paintings in Rotterdam, Netherlands, last month focused attention on the murky world of art theft, the gothic Saint Bavo cathedral in Ghent has been at the centre of a crime that has bedeviled the art world for decades.
The Just Judges panel of the Van Eyck brothers' multi-panel Gothic masterpiece hasn't been seen since 1934, when chief suspect Arsene Goedertier suffered a stroke at a political rally and died after murmuring those fateful words to a confidant.
The theft has kept the country enthralled ever since, with its heady mix of priceless art and scintillating detective story.
Ghent was hit by two thefts on the night of April 10, 1934: "One was a wheel of cheese," said detective Jan De Kesel. "The other was the panel."
That slowed up the investigation of the art theft, in which a minor panel of the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb representing St John the Baptist, was also lifted.
"Don't laugh," said De Kesel, one of a long line of detectives searching for the lost work: "It was 1934, there was an economic depression — and the wheel of cheese had priority."
The probe went nowhere until the St John the Baptist panel was found that year in the luggage claim of a Brussels train station wrapped in brown paper. It wasn't the sign of a guilty criminal conscience — just an extortion ploy proving that the thief, or thieves, had The Just Judges. A note demanded a million Belgian francs, a massive sum at the time, for the panel's return.
The local bishop produced only a fraction of the ransom demand and more extortion letters followed.
Then Goedertier died, yielding another clue in his apparent confession: "In my office ... drawer ... closet." There, copies of the old extortion letters and the draft of a new one were found.
Adding to the theft's mystique, this last one read: "The Just Judges are in a place where neither I nor anyone else can take it without drawing the public's attention." Police also found indecipherable drawings possibly pointing to a hiding place.
Ever since, Belgium has been in the grip of a decades-long treasure hunt, one that has drawn detectives of every ilk: cab drivers, computer scientists, lawyers, retired police inspectors, among others.
From divining rods to endoscopes to SS Nazi search parties, it has all been to no avail. Overanxious amateur sleuths have even drilled holes in important monuments on the hunch the panel might be there.
One of the more popular theories is that Goedertier, a stockbroker, may never have taken the panel out of the cathedral, but hidden it somewhere inside. But lifting every pane or tile in the massive St Bavo would carry a prohibitive cost and risk damaging the historic edifice.
"There are not even indications as to what part of the church it might be in," said De Kesel. "And I tell you, there are an awful lot of nooks and crannies."
Perhaps closest to the mystery these days is art restorer Bart Devolder, at Ghent's Museum of Fine Arts. He is working on the most ambitious restoration yet of the 15th-century painting. Devolder hopes the five-year restoration will raise interest in the theft of The Just Judges, which was replaced in 1941 by a much-lauded copy by art restorer Jozef Vander Veken.
The ongoing restoration "offers the opportunity for a new boost to look for it," Devolder said in an interview while taking a break from work. "It really bothers me that the work is not complete."
The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb was finished in 1432 as medieval times gave way to the Renaissance, and the work's stunning detail and sense of light were at the time unsurpassed.
Much as the restoration of Rome's Sistine Chapel a dozen years ago wiped the grime off Michelangelo's multicoloured glories, there is hope the same will happen to the "Ghent Altarpiece" under Devolder's efforts.
"If we remove the yellowing varnish, people will see the genius of Van Eyck even more," Devolder said.
He maintains hope that he will one day get his hands on The Just Judges— for restoration only of course. "I am sure it will take a great deal of work," he said, "depending where it was kept."
He made an appeal to whoever might have possession of the panel.
"We have an extra easel here," said Devolder. "They can quietly bring it in here. "No questions asked."

Popeye was a jaunty sailor obsessed with spinach. It was the miraculous substance that swelled his strength to superhuman proportions. In the children's comics we read, he overcame obstacles and thwarted the bad guys, often after downing a can of spinach.
As a kid growing up in 1970s Hamilton, spinach was a foreign vegetable. Silverbeet we knew about - soggy, overcooked and notable for its tough white stalks. It was the nearest we had.
These days we recognise spinach as a much less exotic edible. New Zealand spinach must rate as one of the most useful crops. Easily grown, its leaves can be frequently picked off for salads, sandwiches and stews.
At TLC Meats spinach is mixed with camembert, onion and garlic and stuffed inside a chicken that has then wrapped in bacon.
Leanne Anderson, "gourmet chicken creator", at the Richmond Centre butchery has been preparing the dish, called Popeye Chicken, for some time. She gets repeat customers and estimates the chicken will feed about five. That's good news. Visiting TLC meats last week with $30, I'm seeking options for a family of five. One Popeye Chicken will cost $18.99 and while that's more than a supermarket bird, we have a birthday to acknowledge so Popeye poultry is perfect.
Anderson says the strips of bacon, covering the chicken's outer, add to its flavour while also deleting the need to add any fat in the roasting process.
We will eat this hot but left to cool down and eaten cold, the layers of chicken, stuffing and bacon are more obvious, she points out. That means her comic-book inspired creation would be great for a special occasion lunch when cold meat means something other than a run-of-the-mill option. A smaller Popeye chicken is also produced for poultry fans only needing to feed two mouths.
I've started with chicken so finish the rest of my $30 spend by opting for Chicken Wellingtons. These are small pies, folded a little like Cornish pasties and modelled on a traditional Beef Wellington. Chicken thigh fillet meat is tucked, with basil pesto and cheese, inside savoury pastry. At about $4 each, I take home three agreeing with Anderson that they'll be handy fillers for quick meals.
They'll feed two at a time.
The family devour the Popeye Chicken once it has been roasted for an hour, and left to rest for about 10 minutes. No gravy is required - it would be insensitive to swamp Anderson's creation in heavy sauce. We go for the roast potatoes and green salad combo - not with spinach because that has gone to seed in the garden, but with rocket as its base. The chicken flesh is firmer than the last supermarket chicken we purchased, as well as being less oily despite its bacon coating. The stuffing doesn't overwhelm the flavours and the onion- allergic members of our household don't notice its inclusion, so that adds to the ease and enjoyment of our treat.

Lee's great Valentine's date with Brian the dummy
Lee Burke tells story of her Valentine's Day adventure across Shepparton with Brian the dummy.JENNA BISHOP February 19, 2014 4:55am
When Lee Burke first met Brian, it wasn't exactly love at first sight.
When you meet Brian, it's obvious why — he is severely lacking in conversational skills, he doesn't move well and his facial expressions leave much to be desired.
It's probably because he's a dummy, a clothes mannequin rescued from obscurity from a bin at one of Shepparton's sports clothing stores.
That didn't stop the pair enjoying a range of activities across the city on Friday to celebrate Valentine's Day.
It was only by chance Lee and Brian met — she was looking out a second storey office window on Thursday with her boss when she saw several mannequins taken to the recycling bin.
A spur of the moment decision led the pair to rescue the dummies.
''I took the big six-foot one and only just got him in the car. My daughter jumped in and saw him, and said, 'Mum, it's me or Brian','' Ms Burke said.
Another spur of the moment decision led the pair on a series of adventures for Valentine's Day, a modern-day Life of Brian for Monty Python fan Ms Burke.
After a tough year and becoming single for the first time since she was 17, Ms Burke decided to put her own twist on Valentine's Day celebrations.
''I wanted to make people laugh and see the lighter side of things,'' she said.
Ms Burke said her social experiment had put a smile on many faces across the city and was memorable.
''You could see people look and then do a double take. You started telling people the story and they thought it was great. They were taking photos.
''When we went out, we attracted a lot of attention.''
Dressed in hipster fashion — long brown hair, sunglasses, a woven straw hat, jeans and a shirt of Ms Burke's favourite band, ZZ Top — Brian hit the town, first taking Lee to see the cows near Victoria Park Lake and even planking on one to amuse her. They stopped in for coffee at Hudsons, with amused coffee-drinkers posing for photos with Brian.
After relaxing at Lee's desk, Brian took her out for lunch and to Shepparton Art Museum.
Ms Burke said they did not visit one of the exhibitions, fearing the faces on the art would offend Brian and his lack of facial features.
After Brian helped Ms Burke complete her work, the pair went for pedicures at Wellsprings Day Spa, followed by a night out at the Aussie Hotel.
Brian propped himself up at the bar, with many curious glances coming his way.
''There were even people just lining up behind him to buy drinks,'' Ms Burke said.
Unfortunately, she did not really think Brian was boyfriend material and she was not sure if he would make the cut for a second date.
''He didn't have much to say, which isn't a bad thing, because he was a good listener,'' she said.
''Plus, I was literally carrying the relationship, it was tiring.''

BMW, Ford, GM, Honda and 10 other leading automakers have agreed a set of expectations for suppliers, relating to the environment, working conditions, human rights and business ethics.

As the name indicates, the one-page document is a set of broad principles rather than prescriptive standards. For the environment, the principles are:
Companies are expected to pursue effective environmental protection throughout the supply chain in order to reduce the environmental footprint of our products through-out their life-cycle.
All products manufactured within the supply chain, and the applied materials and substances used in the process are expected to meet environmental standards for design, development, distribution, use, disposal or recycling. Such a comprehensive approach includes but is not limited to:
• Reducing energy and water consumption
• Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
• Increasing use of renewable energies
• Enhancing appropriate waste management
• Training of employees
Businesses are expected to support a proactive approach to environmental challenges, and encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.
The guidelines apply to first-tier suppliers as well as their subcontractors and suppliers
AIAG first developed the basis for these guidelines in 2009, in collaboration with Ford, GM, Chrysler, Honda and Toyota.
The same year, automotive companies in Europe created a working group to enhance collaboration on supply chain sustainability. CSR Europe has facilitated this working group since 2012.
To establish the latest Guiding Principles, AIAG and CSR Europe, together with the 14 automakers, built on the AIAG guidelines and worked to find common points of agreement.
The AIAG also has projects related to greenhouse gas reporting, chemical management and reporting, and the Globally Harmonized System.

The moon's crookedness is caused by our going toward the center of the galactic plane

I see... I agree to leave your thread alone and now you're going to trash-talk and taunt me? You're not only delusional, you're obviously an insecure self-centered jackass. The more I watch threads on this subject by "believers", the more I see that correlation.
many questions my friend, but
menow (astro??)has already given me (and grasptheuniverse) red karma
just because we bumped/posted on your thread yesterday,
Absolutely false.
I think Meowmeow is just a sore loser, if he/it were capable of feelings, that is. Kind of feels good to Win on my Thread, but I thought it was rather too easy actually, so my satisfaction is sadly lacking..sniffles...
Anonymous Coward 27437534
"Win"? By weasling out of the discussion and disingenuously dodging the REAL explanation for the Moon's alleged "crookednes"? What a pathetic ego-maniac you are! Wot a maroon!
Yeah I was going to say Before, hope you and others (beyond folks like Weasel and Kathy and Menow) don't mind my tooting my own horn so much when i talked with them. That's not really me, but Sometimes I feel so Strongly to put those Arrogant ones in their rightful places.
Anonymous Coward 27437534
"Arrogant"? Ever look in a mirror, pal? We simply had a rational, non-woo explanation for the Moon's alleged "crookedness". If that means I'm "arrogant", I'll take it as a badge of honor. The moon is not "crooked" or "wrong" at all. You don't want to hear that because it means you can't get enough attention and ego-stroking by posting idiotic pseudo-scientific nonsense about it.
So glad to see this Thread has turned a Corner so it's not all about Bickering with the Shills. I'm also going to Turn in soon myself, and I think with the Encouragement you gave me, I shall sleep like a baby.. albeit a Rather loud snoring one! TTFN
Anonymous Coward 27437534
Right... "shills"... definition: anybody who knows the first thing about astronomy and can explain where you are wrong.
Now you can all go back to your delusional, self-congratulatory circle-jerk.
Oh... one more thing... BITE me!

Haha! That's a pretty damn good post there! Maybe I was wrong about you being a bot, unless you've gotten a recent upgrade, or somebody has taken over your name persona? LOL (ugh I still hate LOL)
I guess you decided to Catch me at a disadvantage when I'm depriving myself of sleep, but I'll still give this a go, and actually have to thank you as the Gentleman (not to mention Scholar) that I am, to give me something atm to occupy myself with.
I'm not Trash-talking, just speaking honestly. If I were to say shit smells, well if that pile had a consciousness, it wouldn't be too flattered, but it's the truth nonetheless. And I'm not trying to take cheap shots at you, because actually if I'm being perfectly frank, your post here is much better than what you posted here previously. Still, I couldn't help but to follow your Thread history in the last two months. it seems this is your comeback to my thread? You posted here and another, but alas in the other thread agent 4 was your best buddy, and so my suspicions of you again get confirmed. I won't explain further to that point, out of a little common courtesy so that you can save face a little bit.
I don't know about the karma thing, but I'll check it out after I've done responding to you here.
Arrogance bleeds from you, I hate to burst your bubble. And while I've had a Christian upbringing, sometimes I don't know what's good and what's not. Recently I've had my thoughts about such challenged by someone who says that being proud in your accomplishments and thoughts isn't a bad thing. So I guess maybe that's right, but you at least have to have the RIGHT things to be proud of, and to sell out humanity as I think you're doing, isn't something to be proud of at all. I think it's criminal, evil, and every other word in a thesaurus of the same meaning. Doesn't matter if they sold you on the false pretense that we have to maintain social order, because folks just wouldn't be able to handle the Truth. There's probably no such thing as a real Devil, but folks like you come devilishly close, if anybody does!
But like I said, you've gotten tons better with this post, so kudos. Oh wait one more thing, just like was said in the movie Star Wars, only the Sith think in terms of Absolutes. I've given my certaintude to a factor of 99.88% in my mind. Bet you can't even admit the possibility that you may be wrong, can you? See, that's what really separates me from you. Never ever have I ever seen a Shill admit he could be Mistaken.
