text: How to map your careerHoward Solomon - September 6, 2012If you can map out a vacation trip, why not map out your career? Many people do it for themselves, according to this article in NetworkWorld U.S., but in large organizations, managers do it in collaboration with staff. So this report is as valuable for staff as it is for administrators. As the piece points out, a career map pulls together corporate information to give employees and their managers a view of where they are, where they can go and how to get to the jobs they want. This particularly works for IT staff, who typically collect defined skills — in say, desktop operating systems, wired or wireless networks, security — and, with good advice, can plot what they need to move to more senior positions. It's important to note what one expert quoted in the article says: Career mapping "is about setting long-term professional goals and objectives that go beyond the targets established during annual reviews."

Annette, Kelso's girlfriend from his and Donna's California exile, comes to visit Michael Kelso but stays with Donna, who insists Jackie must join them. Jealous Jackie hates Annette like bubonic plague, but seems to warm to her, until...

Now their parents know and worry about Eric and Donna's engagement, Eric is terrified and shunned by Red, Donna goes plead their case.

12 Mar. 2003Hey Hey What Can I Do
Now most kids are out of a job income, they all head for the job fair, Eric and Hyde being fired, Kelso after getting a ticket from a female cop made him doubt if his looks will last, Donna as 'hot' appetizer for her radio station. Red raises the stakes: if Eric sticks to marrying Donna, he'll stop the dumb ass's college funding.

Eric found a bank teller's job, but...

While Fez wants to meet the parents of his girlfriend Nina, Donna has talked herself into asking Jackie to stay with her because her parents are gone.
2 Apr. 2003No Quarter
Donna finds having Jackie as 'guest' is hell, only more invasive than an occupying army. Kelso hopes he'll be a tough cop in a year, but needs a less sissy job than model- Hyde's boss Roy engages him as kitchen hand, but bastard Steven pretends to be his boss, qualified to fire him after a trial period, which the scum turns into a non-stop hell-week, even in the Forman basement. Eric can't meet the payments for Donna's engagement ring, even after selling LPs. Fez is still drifting on a pink cloud called Nina, yet as horny as ever.
9 Apr. 2003Trampled Under Foot
The basement gang realizes their lives, conversations and routine are boringly repetitive, so they consider inviting a new member, but Kitty forces upon Eric Lance Crawford, a creepy kid, just because she's after his mother's peach cobbler recipe, but he came prepared...

7 May 2003Immigrant Song
Red has taken a final decision regarding Eric and Donna's wish to move and marry.
14 May 2003Celebration Day
Fez dreads impending graduation as he probably must return to his lizard-infested country afterward, so he gets Kelso and Hyde to observe a truce in their Jacky-war to join both on a camping trip by the lake with the whole gang, plus Eric's stupid sister Laurie. Kitty is on heavy tranquilizers as she can't handle her 'baby boy' moving out. After a failed ghost prank by the campfire Eric was to skinny-dip with Donna, but ends up screaming butt-naked with Laurie, who next does it in Kelso's van with Fez, who gets even more out of it then sex... Kelso and Hyde's rivalry ...
29 Oct. 2003The Kids Are Alright
Eric is torn apart because he desperately wants to leave home, but can't because he's needed at home after Red's mild heart attack.
5 Nov. 2003Join Together
Although everyone keeps meanly abusing Kelso, he proves himself a true friend by realizing Hyde and Jackie may play cool and aloof, they're obviously still in love, so Michael starts shuttle diplomacy, albeit without rendering any sentence correctly, and makes each believe the other apologized first... Eric's announcement he defers college at least till Red is recovered delights Kitty as much as it depresses Red his 18 years wait isn't about to end after all, and joining Red in the doctor's ruthless diet looked doable to Kitty only till she reads he list includes no ...
12 Nov. 2003Magic Bus
It's Donna's last night in Point Place, and it's also Eric's eighteenth birthday. He may not be getting the party he expected, and he has to tell Donna goodbye.
19 Nov. 2003The Acid Queen
When the boys see foxy Brooke again, Kelso wants her to confirm they did it at a Molly Hatchett concert, but she doesn't even remember the Adonis, who just can't believe it: other girls pretend they did get him. Just admitting he finds Brooke hot too gets Hyde in Jackie's bad books, but he's not about to lie for her; Kitty assures her it just takes a few years of picking shrewd shrew-battles till a man just gives up 'disobeying'. Donna tells Kelso that Brooke is now a librarian, he keeps insisting -the other boys only now discover there is a library in town, and it ...
26 Nov. 2003I'm Free
The gang doesn't believe Kelso's claim Brooke can't be carrying his child. When Donna gets him to talk to her, she tells him never to give the baby and her another taught- he can't believe his luck! Immigration is going to deport Fez if his marriage to Laurie is found fake, so he must sleep in the Foreman house, Kitty can't refuse. Red isn't happy to find him naked in the shower, nor bunking with Eric, who must imitate his ocean sounds tape to stop his endless candy stories, so Fez ends up in the basement, cranky after a sleepless night. Agent Armstrong interrogates ...
3 Dec. 2003We're Not Gonna Take It
Eric is fired because Joanne broke up with Bob. Eric tries to get the job Kelso is also applying for.
17 Dec. 2003Christmas
The firm is mad enough to designate misanthrope Red as Santaclaus, instead of Bob who grudgingly accepts to assist as elf with Kitty, who by signing up the kids for the same duty unknowingly convinced the boys to attend the school dance they had sworn never to join again. Donna is furious when she learns Eric hangs out there and is now popular with a few schoolgirls, so she turns up during her radio show. Fez fears the football team will again lock him up in a locker. Hyde only came for Jackie's sake. Kelso only wanted to avoid going to the library as Brooke suggested...

I have a good friend running tourneys next year, I talked to him this weekend
about Wasatch Academy.
Wasatch Academy has been invited to play in two Utah tourneys in 2014-15. One was declined due to finals week conflicting with the dates. The other is over Christmas break and involves 16 teams from Utah all from the 3A, 4A, and 5A level.
If Wasatch Academy wants to prove they "belong" in the 4A and 5A talk, they have a chance to do so if they accept the invite over Christmas break next year. There are so many articles where people are saying "nobody will play them" but that is not true. We will see if they accept the Utah tourney invite, because according to my friend the invite has been extended.

I find the position of the spray can a bit strange in each of these. I'd probably prefer a solid bottom-right. The eye tends towards the bottom right anyway, doesn't it? So it's not a bad place, even if it does seem ordinary.
The line doesn't do a lot for me; but I guess it's a translation.
I find these adds a little boring tbh.
Mosquito turns vegetarian? I don't think so. Maybe it should be sucking another animal? would be more believable.

Information, Not Evaluations
Breaking through blood sugar testing results.
By Kerri Sparling
June 2011 — "Blood sugars are information, not evaluations."
I heard Dr. Korey Hood, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, say this at a Children With Diabetes conference a few weeks ago. And this statement stuck in my head for many days.
To be honest, I was tempted to put it on a flag. You know, for those people who like to ask, "Hey, what was your number?" and when you reply, "Oh, it was 212," they say, "Wow. That's not very good." And then I can wave the flag around and casually say, "Yeah, well blood sugars are information, not evaluations." (In my mind's eye, the person gets bopped in the face with the flag as it dances back and forth.)
I have a hard time with some of the adjectives assigned to blood sugar results. When that 52 mg/dl result grins up at me from my meter, I have to beat back the phrases that jump into my head. "Bad number!" "What did I do?" "Wrong!" "Scary!" Same for the 342 mg/dl that comes with the same kneejerk reaction of blame and shame.
I'm not sure where it started, but growing up, blood sugars were either "good" or "bad." I don't fault my parents or my endocrinologist, but more the perception that we had so many tools to manage diabetes, so of course we should be able to hit all the suggested marks! Also, "good" is easy to reward by way of Barbie Dolls and being allowed to stay up late, but each "good" comes with a guilt-inducing "bad" counterpart.
After living with type 1 diabetes for over two decades, I've come to realize that nothing works more efficiently and effectively than a properly functioning pancreas. All my insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors and exercise can only take me so far. That's the reality of life with diabetes: It's not a perfect science, and perfect diabetes management isn't an achievable goal. (Not to mention, it's a constantly moving target.)
Knowing that perfection isn't possible makes dealing with the day-to-day of diabetes a little easier. When I test, I know that my blood sugar isn't going to be between 80 – 110 mg/dl every time. Seeing those numbers is a cause for celebration, but seeing numbers that aren't within that range isn't a reason to hang my head. Letting those kinds of thoughts enter my head isn't healthy. As Korey said, "Blood sugars are information, not evaluations." I need to find ways to stop myself from assigning emotional worth to my blood sugars. Instead, I need to see them as what they are: Information.
So I've started removing the words "good" and "bad" from my blood sugar vocabulary. They've been replaced with "in range" and "out of range," or "high" or "low." Something as simple as making the adjectives associated with each meter reading makes the result easier to learn from and to move past. These numbers don't define me, and they don't define my life. What they represent is information about my diabetes control, and they give me a point to start again from. Low, high, or right in range, I need to stop fearing the result and instead learning from it.

It is good for us to be exposed to so many different points of view on a multitude of issues.

This invention relates to an electrophotographic printing machine, and more particularly concerns an improved stapling apparatus for use therein.
In the process of electrophotographic printing, a photoconductive member is charged to a substantially uniform level, thereby sensitizing the surface thereof. Thereafter, the charged photoconductive member is exposed to a light image of an original document being reproduced. Exposure of the charged photoconductive surface discharges the charge selectively in the irradiated area. This records an electrostatic latent image on the photoconductive surface corresponding to the informational areas contained within the original document being reproduced. After the electrostatic latent image is recorded on the photoconductive surface, the latent image is developed by bringing a developer mix into contact therewith. The greater attractive force of the latent image causes toner particles to be attracted from the carrier granules of the developer mix to the latent image. Thereafter, the resultant toner powder image is transferred to a copy sheet and permanently affixed thereto. This general approach was originally disclosed by Carlson in U.S. Pat. No. 2,297,691, and has been further amplified and described by many related patents in the art.
Frequently, it is highly desirable to reproduce a set of original documents as a plurality of sets of copies. This may be accomplished by employing a recirculated document handling system in association with the electrophotographic printing machine. The recirculating document handling system is positioned on the platen of the printing machine and advances successive original documents thereto. The original documents disposed on the platen are exposed and subsequently reproduced. After being copied, each original document is returned to the stack of original documents so that it may be re-imaged for the next successive copying cycle. In this manner, collated sets of copies or booklets may be formed. Each set of copies corresponds to the set of original documents. The copy sheets of specific booklets are stapled to one another.
A stapling apparatus is located at the finishing station of the printing machine to staple the set of copies. After the staple has been driven through the set of copies, the legs thereof protrude outwardly therefrom. Thus, it is necessary to bend the legs back into contact with the set of sheets, i.e. to clinch the legs. This may be readily achieved by a clinching mechanism. Various types of techniques may be utilized to achieve clinching. For example, a passive clincher employs an anvil having an appropriately configured groove into which the legs of the staple are pressed. This bends the legs into contact with the sheets. Active systems utilize clincher ears which move from a position spaced from the legs to a position in engagement therewith so as to fold the legs into contact with the bottom most sheet of the set. Hereinbefore, active clinching mechanisms have been driven by pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical and electromagnetic devices. In clinching mechanisms previously employed, the electromagnetic device must be far larger than is optimum in order to provide the maximum force required over the range of displacement. This is due to the fact that electromagnetic devices, such as solenoids, produce very little force when their cores are extended, thus, they generally develop insufficient force to start the clinching operation when the output force thereof matches the required force to complete the clinching operation.
When a solenoid is selected which develops sufficient force to start clinching operation, the resultant output force produced by the solenoid armature is greater than required to complete clinching of the staple legs. This is due to the fact that at the start of clinching, the core, i.e. armature of the solenoid is fully extended. At completion of clinching the core extension is a minimum. Thus, the force applied by the armature increases as the clinching operation proceeds.
Accordingly, it is the primary object of the present invention to improve the clinching mechanism employed in a stapling apparatus.
Various types of devices have hereinbefore been developed to improve stapling machines. The following prior art appears to be relevant: Readyhough U.S. Pat. No. 3,474,947 Oct. 20, 1969, Wines et al. U.S. Pat. No. 3,971,969 July 27, 1976, Gordon U.S. Pat. No. 4,030,656 June 21, 1977, Manganaro U.S. Pat. No. 4,033,500 July 5, 1977.
The pertinent portions of the foregoing prior art may be briefly summarized as follows:
Readyhough discloses a pneumatically actuated clinching mechanism.
Wines et al. describes an electrically operated stapling device where staples are driven into the article to be stapled by a driver blade powered by a solenoid.
Gordon discloses a stapling apparatus employing a pair of solenoids to obtain different magnitude forces.
Manganaro describes a trigger actuated electromagnetic stapler.
It is believed that the scope of the present invention, as defined by the appended claims, is clearly patentable distinguishable over the foregoing prior art taken either singly or in combination with one another.
Briefly stated, and in accordance with the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for stapling articles.
Pursuant to the features of the invention, the apparatus includes means for driving a staple through the article so that a portion of the staple legs extend therethrough. Means are provided for bending the portion of the staple legs protruding through the articles into substantial contact therewith. In this manner, the staple is clinched. Means apply a force on the bending means which varies as a function of the distance of movement of the bending means. The bending means exerts a clinching force on the legs of the staples which varies as a function of the distance of movement thereof in substantially the same manner as the force applied thereon by the applying means.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent upon reading the following detailed description and upon reference to the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic elevational view of an electrophotographic printing machine incorporating the features of the present invention therein;
FIG. 2 is an elevational view showing the stapling apparatus employed in the FIG. 1 printing machine; and
FIG. 3 is a graph depicting the force applied on the clinching mechanism and the force required as a function of displacement.
While the present invention will hereinafter be described in connection with a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood that it is not intended to limit the invention to that embodiment. On the contrary, it is intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalents as may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
In order to more fully understand the electrophotographic printing machine incorporating the features of the present invention therein, reference is made to the drawings. In the drawings, like reference numerals have been used throughout to designate identical elements. FIG. 1 schematically illustrates the various components of an electrophotographic printing machine incorporating the stapling apparatus of the present invention therein. Although the improved stapling apparatus is particularly well adapted for use in an electrophotographic printing machine, it will become evident from the following discussion that it is equally well suited for use in a wide variety of machines and is not necessarily limited in this application to the particular embodiment shown herein.
Inasmuch as the art of electrophotographic printing is well known, the various processing stations employed in the FIG. 1 printing machine will be shown hereinafter schematically, and their operation described briefly with reference thereto.
As shown in FIG. 1, the electrophotographic printing machine employs a belt 10 having a photoconductive surface, e.g. made from a selenium alloy, deposited on a conductive substrate, e.g. aluminum. As shown in FIG. 1, belt 10 moves in the direction of arrow 12 to advance sequentially through the various processing stations positioned about the path of movement thereof. Rollers 14, 16 and 18 support belt 10. A drive mechanism, i.e. a suitable motor, is coupled to roller 14 and advances belt 10 in the direction of arrow 12.
Initially, a portion of the photoconductive surface of belt 10 passes through charging station A. Preferably, charging station A includes a corona generating device, indicated generally by the reference numeral 20, which charges the photoconductive surface of belt 10 to a relatively high substantially uniform potential. A suitable corona generating device is described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,836,725, issued to Vyverberg in 1958.
Next, the charged portion of the photoconductive surface of belt 10 advances through exposure station B. At exposure station B, a recirculating document handling system indicated generally by the reference numeral 26, presents successive original documents 22, one at a time, to exposure station platen 24 and returns the original documents to the stack thereof. After the original document is exposed, it is returned to the stack of original documents. A suitable recirculating document handling system is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,076,408, issued to Reid et al. in 1978, the relevant portions thereof being hereby incorporated into the present application. Original document 22 is positioned face down upon platen 24 and a lamp flashes light rays thereon. The light rays reflected from original document 22 are transmitted through the optics of the exposure system forming a light image containing the informational areas of the original document therein. The optics, e.g. a suitable lens and mirror, project the light image onto the charged portion of the photoconductive surface of belt 10. In this manner, the charged portion of the photoconductive surface is discharged selectively by the light image of the original document. This records an electrostatic latent image on the photoconductive surface which corresponds to the informational areas contained within original document 22.
Thereafter belt 10 advances the electrostatic latent image recorded thereon to development station C. Development station C includes a developer unit 28 having a plurality of magnetic brush developer rollers 30, 32, 34 and 36 disposed in housing 38. Each developer roller advances the developer mix into contact with the electrostatic latent image recorded on the photoconductive surface of belt 10. In a system of this type, a chain-like array of developer mix extends in an outwardly direction from each developer roller to contact the electrostatic latent image recorded on the photoconductive surface. The latent image attracts the toner particles from the carrier granules forming a toner powder image on belt 10.
The toner powder image is transported by belt 10 to transfer station D. Transfer station D is located at a point of tangency on belt 10 as it moves around roller 14. A transfer roller 40 is disposed at transfer station D with the copy sheet being interposed between transfer roller 40 and belt 10. Transfer roller 40 is electrically biased to a suitable magnitude and polarity so as to attract the toner powder image from belt 10 to the surface of the copy sheet in contact therewith. After transferring the toner powder image to the copy sheet, conveyor 42 advances the copy sheet in the direction of arrow 44 to fixing station E.
Prior to proceeding with the remaining processing stations, the sheet feeding apparatus will be described briefly. With continued reference to FIG. 1, the sheet feeding apparatus includes a sheet transport 46 which advances, in seriatum, successive copy sheets from stack 48, or in lieu thereof, stack 50. The machine programming enables the operator to select the desired stack from which the copy sheet will be advanced. In this way, the selected copy sheet is advanced to transfer station D so that the toner powder image adhering to photoconductive surface of belt 10 may be transferred thereto.
After the toner powder image has been transferred to the copy sheet, conveyor 42 advances the copy sheet in the direction of arrow 44 to fixing station E. Fixing station E includes a fuser assembly, indicated generally by the reference numeral 52. Fuser assembly 52 comprises a heated fuser roll and a backup roll. The copy sheet having the toner powder image thereon, passes between the fuser roll and backup roll with the toner powder image contacting the fuser roll. This permanently affixes the toner powder image to the copy sheet. After fusing, conveyors 54 and 56 advance the copy sheet to finishing station F.
Returning now to the printing cycle, after the toner powder image has been transferred to the copy sheet at transfer station D, residual toner particles frequently remain adhering to belt 10. These residual toner particles are removed therefrom by a fibrous brush 58 coupled to a vacuum system. Brush 58 rotates so as to remove any residual particles remaining on the photoconductive surface of belt 10. These residual particles, in turn, are drawn through the vacuum system into a storage chamber.
Turning now to finishing station F, finishing station F includes an output tray 60 and a stapling apparatus 62. Only one stapling apparatus 62 is shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of such staplers may be employed wherein the stapler is manually adjustable to discrete positions corresponding to the paper sizes which may be employed in the printing machine. Either stapler or both staplers may be selected for stapling. Inasmuch as both staplers are identical to one another, only one stapler will be described hereinafter. Stapling apparatus 62 includes a modified stapler head 64 which corresponds to Model Number 62E manufactured by the Bostitch Corporation. Stapler head 64 is actuated by an electromagnetic device 66, such as a solenoid. Thus, actuation of solenoid 66 causes stapler head 64 to drive a staple through a stack of copy sheets 68. Clinching mechanism 70 bends the portion of the staple legs protruding through stack 68 into contact with the bottommost copy sheet thereof. After all of the staples have been clinched, the set of copy sheets is ready for removal by the machine operator from tray 60. Although only one output tray is depicted, a plurality of such output trays may be employed as well as a corresponding number of staplers associated therewith.
It is believed that the foregoing description is sufficient for purposes of the present application to illustrate the general operation of an electrophotographic printing machine incorporating the features of the present invention therein. Referring now to the specific subject matter of the present invention, FIG. 2 depicts the clinching mechanism employed in the FIG. 1 printing machine in detail.
Turning now to FIG. 2, there is shown the detailed structure of clinching mechanism 70. As depicted thereat, driver 72 of stapler 64 has driven staple 74 through the stack of copy sheets 68 supported on tray 60. Clincher ears 76 and 78 are mounted rotatably on pins 80 and 82 secured to tray 60. In this way, clincher ears 76 and 78 are readily pivotable. Clinching rod 92 has an arcuate end portion 86. Arcuate end portion 86 of clinching rod 92 is concave and has a portion thereof disposed in slot 88 of ear 76 and the opposed portion thereof disposed in slot 90 of clinching ear 78. In order to accomodate arcuate portion 86 of clinching rod 92, slots 88 and 90 are open ended. The opposed end portion of clinching rod 92 is secured to solenoid armature 94. Energization of coil 96 of solenoid 98 causes armature 94 to move in the direction of arrow 100. A suitable solenoid is made by the Ledex Corporation of Dayton, Ohio, Model No. 6EC. As armature 94 moves in the direction of arrow 100, the armature, i.e. core, air gap decreases. Initially, armature 94 is fully extended, i.e. the core air gap is a maximum and the armature force a minimum. Energization of coil 96 causes armature 94 to move in the direction of arrow 100 decreasing the core air gap and increasing the force applied by armature 94. Thus, as the external displacement of armature 94 increases, the core air gap decreases. In this way, the force applied by armature 94 is directly proportional to the increase in external displacement of armature 94 in the direction of arrow 100 and inversely proportional to the decrease in core air gap. Moreover, the increase in external displacement equals the decrease in the air gap as armature 94 moves in the direction of arrow 100. Thus, armature 94 applies a force to clinching rod 92. As clinching rod 92 advances, it, in turn, pivots clinching ears 76 and 78 which bend staple legs 102 and 104 into engagement with the lowermost sheet 106 of stack 68. Preferably, the concave portion 86 of clinching rod 92 is crescent shaped being greater than a 40� elliptical shape. However, one skilled in the art will appreciate that any smooth elliptical shape is most likely satisfactory. The exact dimensions and curvature of concave portion 86 of clinching rod 92 depends upon the force characteristics of solenoid 98. However, by selecting an appropriate elliptical configuration for arcuate portion 86, the force versus displacement curves exerted on staple legs 102 and 104 will be substantially the same as the force versus displacement curve of solenoid 98. The crescent shape 86 of clinching rod 92 is any smooth elliptical shape greater than 40�. One skilled in the art will appreciate that crescent shape 86 may be made by using a numerically controlled milling machine, or by a ball mill having the diameter of the ellipse and being tipped at a 40� or greater angle in a milling machine with rod 92 moving therepast to form the elliptically shaped trough of crescent shape 86. It should be noted that portions 108 and 110 of ears 76 and 78, respectively, engage arcuate portion 86 of clinching rod 92 when clinching rod 92 moves in the direction of arrow 100.
Contrawise, when solenoid 98 is de-energized, clinching rod 92 moves in the direction of arrow 112. As clinching rod 92 moves in the direction of arrow 112, tapered portions 114 and 116 engage surfaces 118 and 120 of clinching ears 76 and 78, respectively. This pivots clinching ears 76 and 78 away from stapler legs 102 and 104 returning them to the inoperative positions spaced therefrom. Furthermore, as rod 92 moves in the direction of arrow 112, armature 94 also moves in the direction of arrow 112. Movement of armature 94 in the direction of arrow 112 decreases the external displacement thereof and increases the armature, i.e. core, air gap. When clinching ears 76 and 78 have returned to the inoperative position, armature 94 has returned to its initial position, i.e. where the external displacement is zero and the armature is fully extended, i.e. the core air gap is a maximum.
By way of example, solenoid coil 96 comprises a winding having an aperture therein in which armature 94 is mounted slideably. Armature 94 is made from a magnetic material to form a magnetic path in association with coil 96. Solenoid 98 is energized by applying an electrical current to coil 96.
Referring now to FIG. 3, there is shown a curve depicting the output force versus the external displacement of armature 94. Similarly, the force exerted by clinching ears 78 and 80 required to clinch staple legs 102 and 104 is also shown. It is evident that these force versus displacement curves both are substantially identical to one another with the armature force being greater so that the applied force is greater than the required staple bending force. This force versus displacement match is achieved by utilizing a clinching rod having a concave driving surface for pivoting the clinching ears during the bending of the staple legs.
The force required to bend the staple legs is the component of the force normal to the staple legs. The bending force varies as the staple leg deflects. The bending force is one component of the axial force exerted by the solenoid armature. As the staple leg bends, the angle that the staple leg makes with respect to the axial centerline of the solenoid armature or armature force varies. The component force applied normal to the staple leg is a function of the elliptical shape of the clinching rod. By defining the elliptical configuration of the clinching rod, the force required by the clinching ears to bend the staple legs may be made to vary as a function of armature displacement in a manner substantially identical to the maximum output force that the solenoid armature is capable of applying as a function of armature external displacement.
In recapitulation, the force versus displacement curve of the solenoid is substantially identical to the required clinching force. The foregoing is achieved by utilizing a clinching rod having an arcuate driving surface in engagement with the clinching ears for the bending of the staple legs into engagement with the lowermost sheet of the stack.
It is, therefore, evident that there has been provided, in accordance with the present invention, a stapling apparatus having a clinching mechanism that fully satisfies the objects, aims and advantages hereinbefore set forth. While this invention has been described in conjunction with a specific embodiment thereof, it is evident that many alternatives, modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, it is intended to embrace all such alternatives, modifications and variations that fall within the spirit and broad scope of the appended claims.

TALLAHASSSEE -- Voting glitches are cropping up across the state, including jammed optical scanners in some precincts in South Florida and Leon County, misprinted ballots in Hollywood, and waits as long as three hours at one precinct in Miami, voting rights advocates reported this morning.
Advocates could not say whether the problems were isolated or widespread.
"It's very difficult to say how vast this is," said Ben Wilcox, executive director of Common Cause of Florida. "All we can see is a trend."
By 11 a.m., the group had fielded 1,257 calls on its 1-866-OUR-VOTE hot line, some of them describing voting-equipment problems at 32 different locations across the state.
They included optical scanners at precincts in Tallahassee and South Florida that were rejecting paper ballots.
Leon County Elections Supervisor Ion Sancho said the problem was cropping up in a few precincts in Tallahassee. Scanners were jamming, but only after the ballots had been scanned and reported, Sancho said. No votes were lost, he said.

Nice stay, but staff need more trainingPosted Jun 9, 2016
Pros: The vibrations from next door (through the wall)
Cons: the hotel staff service
Location: Short walk from Dijon-ville train station. 5 mins walk from City Centre.
We stayed at Dijon for one night before heading off to Meursault the next day. Arriving from the train station the hotel was a short walk. The check-in process was smooth, however when we called the front desk for an extra pillow the request seems to have been ignored, we called the second time and it wasn't an hour since the initial call that we finally got our extra pillow. The room was facing inwards, when balconies facing the courtyard and swimming pool. The toilet is separated from the bathroom, which means you have to walk across the hotel room to wash your hands; it also has no ventilation - the scent from your toilet break may flow into the bedroom area. Although the room was well sound-proofed, the walls will still shake quite a bit if someone is banging on it next-door. We checked out just as the France rail worker strike was starting so we asked the front desk to book a taxi for us in our next destination. We ask the front desk to confirm the taxi request at least twice (and they assured us) and in the end we did not see our taxi at our destination - and had to ask the train station staff to book another taxi for us.

Hyvä hotelliPosted Mar 29, 2016 on Ebookers
Hotelli oli oikein siisti ja tyylikäs. Mukava henkilökunta. Valitettavasti aamiainen ei kuulu perushintaan. Asuimme delux huoneessa joka oli sopivan kokoinen ja vaikka ikkunat olivat kadulle päin, mitään ääniä ei kuulunut. Sijainti hyvä. Raitiovaunut liikkuvat hotellin edestä eikä kävellenkin ole pitkä matka keskustaan.

Iker Arroitajauregi has made the first ascent of Txapela at Albarracin, Spain, which he believes could be his first 8C.
36 year old Iker is by no means a stranger to difficult bouldering and has uncountable 8B+'s under his belt. This is of course a way of saying I have no idea how many he has done in total, just that the number is big.

About 50 employers are scheduled to attend
Fixed-hour daytime shifts are a fiction according to a majority of U.S. workers. Special skills are needed to thrive and avoid stress in the 24/7 work environment.
Five groups in the Kansas City area will receive funding, with the Housing Authority of Kansas City receiving $360,798. The money comes from the Family Self-Sufficiency Program of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Jensen Walcott was fired in June after asking why her male friend Jake Reed was paid 25 cents an hour more at a Kansas City, Kan., pizza shop. The incident, which came an hour after she had been hired, drew a tweet from Hillary Clinton, making the Basehor-Linwood High School students famous.
MINNEAPOLIS - Lynne Robertson is famous. At a time when many advertising agencies have consolidated, she bucked the trend when she purchased the Minneapolis retail agency Fame, which she had been leading, from its owner, the Omnicom Group holding company. A year later, Robertson said she has no regrets as she remakes the firm. She expanded its client base and recently relocated to a new office. The 20-person agency added 11 clients this past year, including retailers, restaurants and health care businesses. "I'm really delighted that we have been able to continue to attract good business and that we continued to build our talent pool," she said. "I didn't think we wouldn't, but you never know. You step off that precipice, and it's a leap of faith."
PITTSBURGH - Long before he became a senior vice president at CannonDesign, Michael Corb made $3.30 an hour flipping burgers at a Wendy's in Louisiana.
PITTSBURGH - You may want to stand up while you read this: Studies show Americans sit on average between eight and 12 hours a day. Many sit in the car on the way to work. We sit in our chairs at our desks. We sit down to eat lunch. We sit through office meetings. Then we sit during our evening commute. At the end of the day, we sit while eating dinner, watching TV and surfing the web.
As the summer brings sweltering heat, office dress is shifting. Skirts and sleeves are shorter, sandals are prevalent, and both seasoned professionals and the summer's crop of interns test the boundaries of casual dress.
Q: I have a co-worker who often makes me crazy. She asks for my opinion (maybe only because she feels obligated), but she fights me when I make suggestions. I have substantially more experience, and though we work together, I'm not her boss. How can I handle this?
Q: I work in a very small medical practice where one of the owners has an extremely foul mouth. Whenever "Dr. Smith" is upset, he curses at employees and frequently drops the F-bomb. This is highly offensive to everyone on the staff, but we're afraid of losing our jobs if we complain. What can we do about this?
Low unemployment rates generally are a good thing - but not when they bring on the warm-body syndrome.
Dear summer interns:
Government & Politics
The high court will hear the case Oct. 6. The appeal stems from a judge's ruling in 2015 that removed a ballot measure to boost the local base wage.
With many communities at "full employment," employers say it's harder to fill openings because too few remaining job hunters have the right skills or experience. Furthermore, training budgets have been cut or eliminated, so corporate willingness to hire and train is lacking.
Johnson County agencies collaborated to put on a reverse job fair. Employers would walk around the conference room, stopping to chat with or interview the job seekers and learn how to accommodate disabilities.
Johnson County Developmental Supports and Johnson County Mental Health held a Reverse Job Fair on July 12, 2016, in an effort to bring more employment opportunities to marginalized workers. Job seekers displayed resumes, business cards and informational tri-folds at stations where company representatives could approach and set up future interviews.
Authorities have identified a 58-year-old man who was killed in a fall Sunday at an Independence industrial park as Michael Wrigley of Independence.
LOS ANGELES - The gig: Media companies can be caught by surprise by the immense cultural appeal of their fiction. That's where Susan Kresnicka enters. The 48-year-old cultural anthropologist, who works at Troika Design Group in Los Angeles, has brought social science in to figure out why something becomes popular and help Hollywood executives spot opportunities more quickly.
CHICAGO - Sam Koch, who launched Boston Beer Co., from his kitchen 30-some years ago with a 19th-century family recipe, said he had no idea that his Samuel Adams beer was name-checked in Broadway's cross-cultural megahit "Hamilton."
CHICAGO - Shake Shack is growing at warp speed, but its chief executive says controlled expansion is the key to keeping the company strong in the long term.
