The verdict in the infringement lawsuit between tech giants Apple and Samsung has been reached. The California jury found that Samsung devices infringed on Apple patents, including multi-touch gestures, scroll, zooming and other navigation features.
The damages: $1,051,855,000.
Samsung's counter-claim that Apple infringed on Samsung's technology were all denied, so no damages will be awarded to Samsung from Apple.
According to the jury, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 did not infringe on Apple's tablet designs, but aspects of Samsung's phones did infringe on the design of Apple's products. So not every claim against Samsung was upheld, but most of them were. This is a decisive victory for Apple, and is likely to have tremendous repercussions in the world of cell phones and tablets.
Apple Corp. filed the lawsuit in April 2011 asking for $2.5 billion from Samsung Electronics Co. for infringing on various aspects of the design and technology of Apple products.
This is most likely not the end of the case. An appeal is almost certain.
We'll have more analysis of the verdict and what it means in the coming days, so check back!

The antitumor necrosis factor, infliximab, has been recently shown to be effective in refractory sarcoidosis including the intestinal form of this disease. We have tried this therapy in a 55-year-old woman under immunosuppressive therapy for longstanding sarcoidosis presenting with abdominal pain apparently caused by a colonic localization of the disease. The latter diagnosis was based, as recommended, on the presence of nonnecrotizing granulomas in mucosal biopsies, the presence of systemic disease, and the careful exclusion of other granulomatous diseases, including tuberculosis. After the first IV infusion (10 mg/kg BW), she quickly improved, but the wellbeing lasted approximately 4 weeks. She then received another dose of infliximab, but she soon developed low-grade fever and weakness and shortly succumbed of miliary tuberculosis. Likely, infliximab precipitated a pre-existing mycobacterial infection of the intestine. Given the likelihood of underdiagnosing intestinal tuberculosis—and the risks associated with infliximab treatment—this case suggests that this drug should be used with extreme caution, if at all, when a diagnosis of colonic sarcoidosis is suspected.

After 91 years of a full and happy life, Kathleen "Tubby" Ruth Waldie McCarty Hunter went home on May 28, 2013. She was born May 5, 1922, to Myrtie and Claude A. Waldie of Floresville, Texas, the youngest of seven children. All of her siblings and her parents have gone before her. Her daughter Kathleen Dalton Ferguson and husbands William Dalton (Bill) McCarty and Laurie Demouche Hunter predeceased her. She is survived by her daughter Claudia McCarty Roeser, her granddaughters, Meredith McCarty Riddle, Emily Roeser Wehring and husband Jonathan, Elizabeth Riddle Anders and husband David and great-grandchildren Anna Boehm Wehring, Caroline McCarty Wehring, Ella Elizabeth Wehring and Oliver Dalton Anders as well as nieces and nephews. She is also survived by stepchildren, Mary Lou Hunter Vielock, Larry Talbert Hunter, Darius Crayton Hunter and John Floyd Hunter and a host of Hunter family which she married into and took as her own.
Tubby loved her family, her friends, her community and her church. After spending her adult life in Beeville, she retired to Houston seven years ago to be with family, but never ceased missing friends in Beeville. She was an avid sportswoman who loved to hunt and was a superb athlete, playing tennis well into her 70s. She was a poet, a fine arts lover, a world traveler, a businesswoman and a fashion maven extraordinaire … an enthusiastic and competitive participant in whatever she chose to do.
Pallbearers were David Anders, Philip Ferguson, D. Crayton Hunter, Crayton Hunter, John Hunter, Larry Hunter, Wesley Hunter, Bob Vielock, Hunter Vielock, Wade Vielock and Jonathan Wehring.
Services were in Beeville, Texas, at the First Methodist Church, 106 East Cleveland Street, 78102 at 2 o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, June 1, 2013.
For those who so choose, the family suggests a donation in her memory to the First Methodist Church of Beeville, Texas, or the charity of your choice.

Over the last couple of weeks there's been a discussion going on between me and a certain person on my Twitter feed on the nature of what Alpha and Beta Clients, especially in relation to Warlords, will actually entail. It made me wonder this morning: is this is the very start of the process with Alpha Client notes? Should I even be seeing these to begin with? As a result I went and did a bit of research. Fortunately for me, Wikipedia had a diagram to explain:
|All very logical.
Okay then. So Warlords is in what I've been seen referred to as a 'Technical' Alpha in the same way as the Heroes of the Storm MOBA. They even have a graphic:
Looking at other releases I am aware of away from Blizzard (Landmark and ArchAge both spring to mind) Alpha has taken on the mantle of something quite special, away from what I suspect was traditionally a testing period where nothing went outside the Blizzard Campus and its employees. Alpha appears to be a place where gaming companies will pick and choose from their playerbase or from particulars sectors of the gaming community in order to get their game 'tested' in a way which will provide them with a far wider range of feedback than perhaps would normally be the case in simply a Beta. However, as has been the case with Blizzard's pre-order campaign, players are being increasingly asked to part with cash for the privilege.
This appears to be the dawn of the age of the Paytester, an idea Blizzard pioneered themselves with Mists of Pandaria.
Both Landmark and ArchAge, which have a lot in common (sandbox, self-construction worlds with inbuilt secondary crafting and gathering systems) have attracted players and interest via the use of Founders Packs: pay a set sum and you're in the game at Alpha, playing content long before anyone else even gets their hands on a finished product. This gives players a vested interest in what is produced even before the general public get to play: it helps the gaming company generate world of mouth interest via Social Media and through the gaming press. It also means that if the gaming company does something the founders don't like their displeasure's also likely to be aired in the same channels. It puts the responsibility on the company to listen to it's 'paying' testers in a far more significant fashion than might transpire during a large access Beta event.
Most importantly of all, it allows the gaming company working capitol to continue their development efforts.
|ArchAge Founders Packs. Operators are standing by.
Blizzard used the Annual Pass method last expansion around in much the same way as the Founders Packs are working now: pay for 12 months of game time and we'll give you guaranteed Beta access. So why are so many people disappointed with the results when so many players got to test the game? There's a fundamental difference between Blizzard and everyone else that often gets overlooked when considering why they do the things they do: time. This game's a behemoth in MMO terms, and what is abundantly apparent is that what works for other titles won't work for this one. There's also one major issue that the 'large' Beta threw up, and why letting player buy into certain concepts is actually very attractive for gaming companies: feedback.
Obtaining information from players is great, but it's not as useful as the right or very specific feedback, especially if you have systems you're deliberately trying to test. Making sure you're targeting groups who you know will give you the specific responses you're after is something Blizzard have become very adept at over the years. You only need to look at the YouTube and Twitch streamers Blizzard targeted with the Heroes Alpha to grasp they're pushing product in distinct directions. Letting people play your game, whether they pay to do so or you specially invite them, is more likely to produce positive results if you're listening to them from Day One. I strongly suspect that's why they ignored the Annual Pass this time, and instead decided to gather their working capital in a far more subtle fashion. The net result however is pretty much the same.
|They tried to break us, looks like they'll try again...
This time, paytesters have been given the most precious commodity Blizzard can offer: a L90 character. That means, come whenever we see the Release Candidate on the Live Servers, the one million people who paid to pre-order a copy can come back from whatever they're doing and simply take part in the finished product from the first moment it launches. All the work will have been done and they'll be able to experience a game that a selected number of players will have made great for them... because the lesson Blizzard learnt from letting everybody play last time is that it means that many are far less likely to want to stay around to begin with.
The people paying for Founders Packs have a vested financial interest in the outcome of the game, so they'll stick around to make that investment worthwhile in their minds. That's why so many people played Beta before Pandaria: they'd paid for it, so they were going to take part... but for many it spoilt the experience of the game proper. This time however, Blizzard have managed to get people not to pay for the 'chance' to beta the game but to take a 'guarantee' of an instant start on new content come release, which is clearly a far more attractive and time-effective solution for many players. There is no paytesting required here any more. Blizzard tried that idea and it didn't work, so now players are simply provided with something useful in exchange for the product itself. There was also clearly a lack of useful feedback on gating gear to rep grinds and dailies too from that massive exercise for Mists. One suspects testing will be FAR more focussed this time around. What Blizzard require this time is a different approach on many fronts, and that looks like it's going to happen.
But only when Blizzard are good and ready.
|Listen to what the man says...
The Chief Creative Officer of Blizzard Entertainment, Rob Pardo, gave a talk on Wednesday 7th at MIT as part of their Media Labs Conversations series (details are here) This Tweet stood out for me in a selection of notable comments on the Blizzard philosophy to game production, and it's a telling statement on how gaming companies understand the significance of 'product' for consumers. I'd suggest checking out this Twitter Search term timeline too, because it's interesting to see how non-players react to Pardo. What is apparent, even after almost a decade, is that the corporate culture of Blizzard as a 'brand' is very much front and centre. Yes, it matters about player choices, of course it does, but the bottom line remains continually intractable. These guys are here to make money from you and me. How they do that is a constantly evolving process, and sometimes what works for one company won't for another.
Paytesters may be the future: it is hard to tell with the speed at which gaming changes. Wildstar is already promising players a means to pay for real-world subscriptions using in-game gold, and you can be sure Blizzard will be keeping one eye on every such innovation, but the other firmly fixed on maintaining the integrity of its product. Although there will be those who will say that allowing players to buy 90's for cash is already a step too far and a compromise of what the world of Azeroth is all about, the company are simply responding to the understanding of what their players want. Gaming is a very fast-moving world, yet Blizzard refuse to be compromised. What matters is their brand, and if it's going to take until December 2014 to get Warlords right, then that's what is going to happen.
Like it or not, this will be ready when its ready.

JOHN TROSSEN, PLAINTIFF,v.MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY SSA, DEFENDANT.
John Trossen ("Trossen") began receiving Social Security disability benefits on December 26, 1989, due to injuries he suffered in a motorcycle accident where his leg required amputation below the knee. On June 23, 1999, the Social Security SSA ("SSA") informed Trossen that it determined that he was no longer disabled, (Tr. 231), and informed him that his benefits would end as of September 1999, (Tr. 232). Trossen appealed, and Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") Patrick D. Halligan determined that Trossen remained disabled. (Tr. 79.)
In January of 2003, Trossen began earning a significant income as the owner of a bait store and fishing guide. (Tr. 395-96.) Because of this substantial work activity, on April 20, 2005, the SSA informed Trossen that it appeared that he was no longer entitled to benefits as of April 2003, and it gave Trossen the opportunity to present information before it made a final determination. (Tr. 377.) Trossen' benefits were stopped in May of 2005. Because the SSA did not stop Trossen's benefits until May 2005 but Trossen had begun earning significant income in January of 2003, it determined that it had overpaid Trossen $25,806.60. (Tr. 400.)
Proceeding pro se, Trossen asked that this obligation to repay the overpayment be waived. (Tr. 403-11.) Trossen's request for a waiver was denied, (Tr. 413-19), and Trossen requested a hearing before an ALJ, (Tr. 420-22). Trossen appeared pro se at a hearing before ALJ Arthur Schneider on May 28, 2008. (Tr. 493-521.) ALJ Schneider denied the request for waiver, concluding that Trossen was not without fault in causing or accepting the overpayment. (Tr. 52-54.)
Trossen initiated a pro se appeal to the Appeals Council, but during the appeal, Trossen retained counsel. After some confusion about whether the record of the proceedings before the ALJ had been lost, (Tr. 30-36), on November 27, 2009, the Appeals Council ultimately denied Trossen's request for review, (Tr. 23-25). After numerous requests for extensions of time, (Tr. 6-7), proceeding with the assistance of counsel, Trossen filed the present action on May 3, 2010.
Upon all parties consenting to the full jurisdiction of magistrate judge, (Docket Nos. 4, 6), this matter was reassigned to this court for all further proceedings, (Docket No. 7). Trossen has submitted his initial brief, (Docket No. 10), to which the defendant has responded, (Docket No. 13), and Trossen has replied, (Docket No. 16). The pleadings in this matter are closed and the matter is ready for resolution.
Trossen does not disagree with the conclusion that he is no longer disabled or that he was overpaid benefits. Rather, the only dispute is whether the Commissioner erred in determining that Trossen is not eligible for a waiver of the obligation to repay this overpayment.
If the Social Security SSA overpays disability benefits to an individual, the overpaid individual must generally return the overpayment. However, overpaid individuals may be able to obtain a waiver of this repayment obligation under certain circumstances. First, the individual must demonstrate that he was not at fault for the overpayment. 42 U.S.C. § 404(b); Banuelos v. Apfel, 165 F.3d 1166, 1169-70 (7th Cir. 1999). Second, the individual must demonstrate that requiring him to repay the overpayment would defeat the purposes of the Act or be against equity and good conscience. 42 U.S.C. § 404(b); Banuelos, 165 F.3d at 1169-70. In the present case, ALJ Schneider found that Trossen was not without fault for the overpayment, and therefore the waiver was denied without ALJ Schneider addressing the second element of the waiver analysis. (Tr. 54.)
The Commissioner's decision denying a request for a waiver of recovery must be affirmed if it is supported by substantial evidence. 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). See also Banuelos v. Apfel, 165 F.3d 1166, 1169 (7th Cir. 1999), overruled on other grounds by Johnson v. Apfel, 189 F.3d 561, 562 (7th Cir. 1999). Evidence is considered substantial if a reasonable person would accept it as adequate to support the Commissioner's conclusion. Young v. Barnhart, 362 F.3d 995, 1001 (7th Cir. 2004). A reviewing court may not "reevaluate the facts, reweigh the evidence, or substitute [its] own judgment for that of the ." Knight v. Chater, 55 F.3d 309, 313 (7th Cir. 1995).
Bosnich v. Barnhart, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 55216 (N.D. Ill. 2006).
In challenging the decision of the Commissioner, Trossen contends that ALJ Schneider failed in his obligation to properly advise Trossen about the availability of counsel, and upon failing to properly advise Trossen, ALJ Schneider failed to properly develop the record. As for the merits, Trossen contends that administrative finality precludes the retroactive finding of overpayment and that the conclusion that he was not at fault for the overpayment is not supported by substantial evidence.
A. Administrative Finality
At the time of ALJ Halligan's decision in August of 2000 finding that Trossen remained disabled, the prospect of Trossen opening his own business was on the horizon. (Tr. 77-80.) Trossen's efforts to get his business running were discussed at length at the hearing and ALJ Halligan was clearly concerned about how terminating Trossen's benefits as he was trying to get this new business off the ground might derail Trossen's plans. (See Tr. 480-88.) Trossen spoke extensively of his desire to get off of Social Security and become financially independent as the owner of his own business. (Tr. 480.) Notably, Trossen stated, "And I promise, as soon as I'm making money I will let you know and I won't need this anymore." (Tr. 480.)
The rules of administrative finality generally preclude the SSA from re-opening a disability determination more than four years later. SSR 82-66. Trossen contends that ALJ Schneider necessarily reopened the 2000 determination by ALJ Halligan when ALJ Schneider found that Trossen completed a trial work period between September 1999 and May 2000. (Docket No. 10 at 6.)
The Commissioner responds that ALJ Schneider's determination did not require reopening ALJ Halligan's prior determination. (Docket No. 13 at 6.) ALJ Halligan determined only that Trossen had not engaged in substantial gainful activity ("SGA") since May 14, 1998 and thus remained disabled. (Docket No. 13 at 6.) ALJ Schneider's determination that Trossen commenced a trial work period prior to ALJ Halligan's decision is not inconsistent with ALJ's Halligan's finding that Trossen did not engage in SGA because there are numerous ways an individual might have commenced a trial work period without engaging in SGA. (Docket No. 13 at 6-7.)
Under the regulations in effect at the time of ALJ Halligan's determination in 2000, a self-employed person engages in SGA if he spends more than 45 hours a month managing a business, 20 C.F.R. § 404.1575(b)(1), and receives more than $700.00 a month in income from the business, 20 C.F.R. § 404.1574(b)(2). An individual need not engage in SGA to be considered in a trial work period. 20 C.F.R. § 404.1592(b). A trial work period will commence under the 2000 regulations when a self-employed individual earns more than $200.00 a month or works more than 40 hours a month. 20 C.F.R. § 404.1592(b). An individual has only one trial work period of 9 months, regardless of whether the 9 months are consecutive, during a period of entitlement to cash benefits.
20 C.F.R. § 404.1592(c). Thus, under the 2000 regulations, if a person earns more than $200.00 but not more than $700.00 a month, the disabled individual will be in a trial work period but not be engaged in SGA.
The issue before ALJ Halligan was not whether Trossen had begun a trial work period. The issue for ALJ Halligan was whether Trossen had engaged in SGA. As noted above, a finding that Trossen had not engaged in SGA does not necessarily mean that Trossen did not begin a trial work period. The court is presented with no reason to conclude that the rules of administrative finality forever bar the Commissioner from considering facts simply because they happened before a prior administrative decision. Rather, the rules of administrative finality merely limit the Commissioner's ability to upset determinations necerily made in a prior decision. The bar is upon re-considering facts, not considering facts for the first time. Thus, ALJ Schneider could not later determine that Trossen had, in fact, engaged in SGA prior to ALJ Halligan's decision. That determination was foreclosed by ALJ Halligan's decision. However, ALJ Halligan made absolutely no determination as to whether Trossen began a trial work period prior to his decision, and because ALJ Halligan did not make this determination, SSR 82-66 did not bar ALJ Schneider from subsequently so finding.
B. Fault
An individual is at fault for the overpayment if the overpayment resulted from:
(a) An incorrect statement made by the individual which he knew or should have known to be incorrect; or
(b) Failure to furnish information which he knew or should have known to be material; or
(c) With respect to the overpaid individual only, acceptance of a payment which he either knew or could have been expected to know was incorrect.
Trossen argues he was not at fault for the overpayment because he truthfully provided all information that the SSA requested and reasonably relied upon notices from the SSA and statements by ALJ Halligan that led Trossen to believe that when Trossen was suspected to no longer be eligible for benefits, the would initiate a review.
In 2000, ALJ Halligan was clearly looking for a way to continue Trossen's benefits, at least temporarily. ALJ Halligan discussed at length how even if he determined Trossen was no longer disabled, Trossen might be able to remain eligible for benefits under a special program because he was amidst a rehabilitation plan with the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation. (Tr. 481-91.) ALJ Halligan went so far as to advise Trossen about what he should do to be able to benefit from this program if ALJ Halligan found Trossen was not disabled and how Trossen's benefits could continue while the matter under review. (Tr. 481-91.) Ultimately, this discussion was inconsequential because ALJ Halligan found that despite Trossen's improvement, Trossen remained disabled.
At no point in the hearing, or in his decision, did ALJ Halligan make any sort of assurances that could be reasonably interpreted as explicitly excusing Trossen from his obligation to report to the SSA relevant changes in his employment. The only point where ALJ Halligan even remotely suggested that the SSA might be actively monitoring Trossen's case is when in his decision ALJ Halligan suggested that a review be conducted within 36 months because continued improvement was likely. (Tr. 80.) To this court, Trossen's claim that he understood ALJ Halligan's suggestion that a medical review should be conducted in the future to mean that he was "in the clear for a full three years or until his case was reviewed," (Docket No. 10 at 10), is less than credible. This might have been what Trossen honestly believed, (see Tr. 404, 469), but if so, in the view of this court, such a belief was not reasonable.
ALJ Halligan determined only that Trossen remained disabled through the date of the decision, (Tr. 79), and clearly believed that in the near-future Trossen would no longer be disabled. It is unclear why ALJ Halligan suggested a maximum 3-year timeframe in his decision; at the June 22, 2000 hearing, Trossen indicated that he hoped to be off of Social Security within 6-months, (Tr. 486). It is not clear if Trossen was using the 6-month timeframe as an estimate as to when his physical condition would permit him to work fulltime (the record is clear that despite ALJ Halligan's finding that Trossen remained disabled, Trossen had regularly been doing substantial highly physical work remodeling his business) or if he instead was estimating that in 6 months his new business would be off the ground and he would no longer need to rely on the disability income, which is obviously not the standard for determining eligibility for disability benefits.
The fact that Trossen received numerous notices about his benefits is not sufficient to establish that Trossen was without fault. See Kurtz v. Astrue, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 27371, *15-*16 (S.D. Tex. Mar. 31, 2009). As Trossen notes, all beneficiaries receive a regular notices from the SSA. As pointed out by the Commissioner, if the court were to accept Trossen's argument that receipt of such notices meant that a person was not at fault for an overpayment, essentially no recipient would be at fault for an overpayment such as this. Clearly, this is not the law.
It is also not enough that Trossen responded timely and honestly to all the SSA's requests for information. A beneficiary has an affirmative duty to disclose relevant information even if it is not explicitly requested. See Astrue, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 27371, *13-*15. This burden does not rise to the level of requiring a beneficiary to interpret the complex statutes and regulations governing disability benefits, id. at *15-*17, but conversely, an individual is not able to avoid fault by sticking his head in the sand.
Although it is clear that the SSA eventually found out about Trossen's income, and there is some indication that the SSA could have recognized that Trossen was no longer eligible for benefits earlier than it eventually did, (see Docket No. 13 at 12 fn. 7 ("Admittedly, it would have been better for SSA to have connected the dots and realized something may be amiss.")), Trossen makes no claim that he ever explicitly informed the SSA of his new income. Granted, Trossen was not hiding his income; he apparently honestly disclosed his income to the IRS and the SSA relied upon this information to, ironically, increase Trossen's benefits, (see Docket No. 13 at 12, fn 7 (citing Tr. 43)). But simply because the SSA could have done more to prevent this overpayment does not absolve Trossen of his obligation to repay the overpayment. Notwithstanding the SSA's failure of recognition, a waiver shall be granted only if the individual was not at fault for the overpayment. 20 C.F.R. § 404.507. Even if the SSA is predominantly to blame for the overpayment, the individual will be excused from repayment only if he was wholly innocent. Id.
Trossen also contends that ALJ Schneider's decision is not supported by substantial evidence because the record does not contain any evidence that he did not notify the SSA of his income. (Docket No. 10 at 8.) This argument is not persuasive. How an evidentiary record is supposed to contain proof that an event such as this did not occur escapes the court. Rather, the very absence of any indication or even claim that Trossen did appropriately notify the SSA of his income is the best evidence that Trossen never made such a notification.
Finally, Trossen contends that ALJ Schneider's decision was not supported by substantial evidence because ALJ Schneider's finding that Trossen was informed when he began receiving benefits that he had a duty to timely report income, (Tr. 53), was not supported by a reference to the record. Trossen contends "there is no proof that Trossen was ever informed about a need to inform Defendant of income or the standards of trial work periods in his initial notices, later notices, or by ALJ Halligan." Because the record is devoid of any notices Trossen received, Trossen contends that ALJ Schneider's decision is not supported by substantial evidence.
It is obviously preferred that an ALJ support each factual finding with an appropriate reference to the record. It certainly makes a reviewing court's job easier. However, failing to do so does not, in itself, form a basis for remand. ALJ Schneider was not making a credibility finding or a finding about Trossen's medical limitations, in which case a reference to a specific portion of the record is often essential in order to build a logical bridge from the evidence to the conclusion.
The district court need not nit pick a decision and remand it for addition of a reference to the record. See Fisher v. Bowen, 869 F.2d 1055, 1057 (7th Cir. 1989) ("No principle of administrative law or common sense requires [this court] to remand a case in quest of a perfect opinion unless there is reason to believe that the remand might lead to a different result."). If the record contains readily-identifiable un-contradicted support for the factual finding, the lack of a reference is harmless error, if error at all. Unfortunately, a review of the record in this case requires more than simply picking nits.
The Commissioner contends that ALJ Schneider was referring to a pamphlet Trossen was provided when he was first found to be disabled. (Docket No. 13.) The record indicates that Trossen agreed on February 13, 1989 "to notify of all events as explained in the rights and responsibilities pamphlet given to [him]," and that he received "a printed explanation of [his] reporting responsibilities." (Tr. 82.) A separate letter dated January 29, 1990 states that Trossen was provided a pamphlet entitled "Your Social Security Rights and Responsibilities -- Disability Benefits," which informed Trossen of "what must be reported and how to report." (Tr. 217.) Trossen was instructed to "be sure to read the parts of the pamphlet which explain what to do if you go to work or if your health improves." (Tr. 217.)
The information in the record merely confirms that Trossen was informed of certain obligations. Although the court could speculate that the documents mentioned in the record refer to documents wherein Trossen was informed that he was obligated to report the events that occurred in this case, proceeding in such a manner paints with too broad a brush. This court and the ALJ are bound by what the record actually says and cannot simply gloss over and speculate as to what might be within a referenced document. The record lacks sufficient evidence to permit the conclusion that rossen was explicitly informed of his obligation to disclose that he had returned to work and was earning significant income. Therefore, ALJ Schneider's finding that Trossen was so informed, is not supported by substantial evidence.
In summary, an individual is at fault for an overpayment if he fails "to furnish information which he knew or should have known to be material." 20 C.F.R. § 404.507(b). ALJ Schneider, in effect, found that Trossen failed to furnish information that he knew was material because he had been explicitly informed of his obligation to disclose the information. But as noted above, this finding is not supported by substantial evidence.
Perhaps ALJ Schneider could have found that other evidence in the record, such as Trossen's promise to inform the SSA once he started making money, (Tr. 480), demonstrated that he knew of his obligation to disclose his income. Alternatively, ALJ Schneider might have been able to conclude that the evidence demonstrated that Trossen should have known that the fact he was earning significant income was material information that he should have disclosed. But in his terse opinion, ALJ Schneider did not discuss these alternative possibilities. The court is constrained to what ALJ Schneider did say and cannot consider what could have been said; it is not permissible for this court to re-evaluate the evidence and re-write ALJ Schneider's decision in an effort to sustain his determination. Therefore, remand is necessary.
On remand, the ALJ must consider factors such as the Trossen's age and intelligence and any physical, mental, educational, or linguistic limitations and determine whether the overpayment resulted from any of the circumstances outlined in 20 C.F.R. § 404.507.
C. Waiver of Right to Counsel
When Trossen appeared pro se at the hearing before ALJ Schneider on May 28, 2008, ALJ Schneider asked him a series of questions about whether he wished to proceed without counsel. (Tr. 495-500.) After Trossen asked a number of questions about whether he could appeal if ALJ Schneider's decision was unfavorable and if ALJ Schneider represented the SSA, Trossen agreed to proceed without counsel. ALJ Schneider gave Trossen a form entitled "Waiver of Right to Representation," which Trossen then signed. (Tr. 468.)
The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals has been very clear as to what is necery before an individual may waive his statutory right to be represented by counsel at a hearing before an ALJ.
To ensure valid waivers, ALJs must explain to pro se claimants "(1) the manner in which an attorney can aid in the proceedings, (2) the possibility of free counsel or a contingency arrangement, and (3) the limitation on attorney fees to 25 percent of past due benefits and required court approval of the fees."
Skinner v. Astrue, 478 F.3d 836, 841 (7th Cir. 2007) (quoting Binion v. Shalala, 13 F.3d 243, 245 (7th Cir. 1994); Thompson v. Sullivan, 933 F.2d 581, 584 (7th Cir. 1991)). It is frankly amazing to this court, given how long this has been the law in the Seventh Circuit and how frequently it comes to this court's attention, that ALJs have failed to fully comply with the Seventh Circuit's requirements. At the very least, the Commissioner should have issued a standard script for ALJs in this circuit to recite at the beginning of hearings of unrepresented individuals and standard forms wherein all these rights are explicitly articulated, a sort of Miranda warning for persons appearing pro se before ALJs in Social Security proceedings. Too often, ALJs such as ALJ Schneider, seem content to engage in meandering and vague discussions about an individual's right to counsel, (see Tr. 496-97), and utilize pre-printed forms that lack many of the elements the Seventh Circuit has repeatedly said are required, (see Tr. 468). Consequently, the result is that certain elements required by the Seventh Circuit are missed. That is what happened here.
Trossen contends that ALJ Schneider failed to advise Trossen of the third element set forth above. Trossen acknowledges that because this was an overpayment case, the omission of any discussion about fees being capped to 25% of past due benefits was harmless because there were no past due benefits. (Docket No. 10 at 2-3.) However, any fees still would have to be approved by the court and Trossen was not informed of this. (Docket No. 10 at 3.) The closest ALJ Schneider came to articulating this limitation is when he stated, "there's [sic] limits set up by Social Security as to how much that can be, so they can't just charge you any figure they want." (Tr. 496.) This is insufficient to comply with the Seventh Circuit's mandate. ALJ Schneider was required to state that any fees had to be approved by the court, and he failed to do so.
The ALJ's failure to obtain a valid waiver of counsel heightens his duty to develop the record. Luna v. Shalala, 22 F.3d 687, 692 (7th Cir. 1994); Thompson, 933 F.2d at 585-86; Smith v. Sec. of Health, Educ. & Welfare, 587 F.2d 857, 860 (7th Cir. 1978). When an ALJ fails to adequately inform an unrepresented claimant of the right to counsel, the ALJ must "scrupulously and conscientiously probe into, inquire of, and explore for all relevant facts." Smith, 587 F.2d at 860 (citation omitted); Binion, 13 F.3d at 244 . . . . If the ALJ does not obtain a valid waiver of counsel, the burden is on the Commissioner to show the ALJ adequately developed the record. Binion, 13 F.3d at 245. While a claimant represented by counsel is presumed to have made his best case before the ALJ, no such presumption attaches to an unrepresented claimant. Sears v. Bowen, 840 F.2d 394, 402 (7th Cir. 1987).
Skinner v. Astrue, 478 F.3d 836, 841-42 (7th Cir. 2007).
More importantly, the Commissioner has failed to demonstrate that ALJ Schneider fulfilled his obligation by adequately developing the record. For example, there is no indication that the Commissioner ever obtained the record of the hearing before ALJ Halligan. Although this court finds nothing in ALJ Halligan's decision that amounted to an assurance that Trossen was "in the clear for a full three years or until his case was reviewed," (Docket No. 10 at 10), the events at that first hearing were relevant to the ultimate question of whether Trossen knew or should have known whether information about his new income needed to be disclosed. It is conceivable that a upon reviewing the record of the hearing before ALJ Halligan, an ALJ would conclude that, based on Trossen's lengthy discussion of his imminent plans for launching his business and ALJ Halligan's discussion about how under certain circumstances Trossen's benefits could continue even after he began earning substantial income, Trossen could have reasonably concluded that his income was not material information he needed to disclose. Of course, the opposite conclusion, that the transcript of the hearing before ALJ Halligan demonstrates that Trossen knew of his obligation to disclose his income, is also a reasonable inference to be drawn. Deciding between these competing inferences is not a task for this court, but rather a determination that the ALJ will have to make upon remand.
ALJ Schneider failed to adequately inform Trossen about the nature of his right to counsel and thus Trossen's waiver of his right to counsel was ineffective. ALJ Schneider failed to adequately develop the record as required in such circumstances. Thus, remand is necessary. Further, remand is necessary because ALJ Schneider's conclusion that Trossen was informed of his obligation to inform the SSA of his income is not supported by substantial evidence. On remand, the ALJ must consider factors such as the Trossen's age and intelligence and any physical, mental, educational, or linguistic limitations and determine whether the overpayment resulted from any of the circumstances outlined in 20 C.F.R. § 404.507. If the ALJ determines that Trossen was not at fault for the overpayment, the ALJ must consider if Trossen has demonstrated that requiring him to repay the overpayment would defeat the purposes of the Act or be against equity and good conscience.
Finally, Trossen requests that, if the court orders remand, it recommends that the Commissioner, assign the matter to a different ALJ. While the court is not precluded from making such a recommendation, it is best to leave the decision as to the assignment of cases with the Commissioner. This court simply expects that on remand, Trossen now proceeding with the assistance of counsel, will have the record fully developed, regardless of the ALJ to whom the case is assigned.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the decision of the Commissioner is reversed and this case is hereby remanded for further review in accordance with this decision. The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment accordingly.
Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin this 6th day of December, 2010.

Sundials - inv. 4277
This is the best-known sundial in the collection of the more than two hundred items gathered by Piero Portaluppi and also one of the most important by reason of its antiquity, the refinement of its materials and the client who commissioned it. It was made in 1524 by the famous French mathematician Oronce Fine, who was also the author of a literary work on solar clocks. It was intended for the court: it bears the emblems of King Francis I (a salamander and lilies). This instrument was a portable sundial: when the ship was orientated correctly towards the sun a plumb line thread with a bead falling from the mast cast its shadow on the dial. On the hull are engraved the series of the hours and two zodiacal scales, while the signs of the constellations appear along the mast. This is hinged between the two panels forming the hull so it can be inclined depending on the seasons. The name comes from the form of the clock, which resembles a sailing ship used in Venice.

The Grail in America
Written By: Sol

A great deal of literature has seen light in recent years about the voyage of the "Holy Grail" from Europe to America. The idea of a Templar Fleet sailing the oceans and carrying their treasure trove across the Atlantic was extensively researched by Baigent and Lee for their 1989 "The Temple and the Lodge". Many authors had picked up the theme, tracing and documenting the ability of the original Knights Templar to perform such a feat, as they escaped from the continent on their ships in Spain and southern France, after the sudden demise of their order in 1307.
Much of this research focuses on Sir Henry St. Clair (Sinclair) of Scotland, whose grandson William built the Roslyn Chapel, and who is said to have voyaged in late 14th Century to Oak Island in Nova Scotia, and buried "something" there in the famed "Money Pit". This location was later also connected with two famous contemporaries from 16th Century England, similarly named "Francis" - Drake and Bacon, one a sea-farer and explorer, the other a philosopher and mystic (1) (see notes at the end).
Francis Drake claimed many of the lands which subsequently became the US and Canada for the Crown of England, including the entire East Coast with Oak Island. Tales of his hidden treasures across the region spur many adventurers even today. And Francis Bacon is said to have viewed the "virgin land" of the newly discovered continent as the perfect place to practice his mystical philosophy. His work "The New Atlantis," published a short time before his death in 1626, was a utopian vision of a benevolent kingdom.
According to many scholars of the subject, Bacon planned to implement his ideas in America. In 1606 he drafted the charter of the Virginia Company, which later oversaw the Jamestown settlement on the east coast and the development of Virginia lands. Thus Bacon personally had a very big hand in the first permanent and successful white settlement in the north of the new continent, one from which the nation of the United States eventually grew.
In 1610 Bacon was granted land in Newfoundland by King James I, which included Oak Island. Many researchers believe that this gave him a perfect opportunity to study the Sinclair "Money Pit" location at length, and enabled him to deeply extend its underground levels and secret passages, in which he eventually hid his own treasure - his most secret knowledge and reportedly some "magical" artifacts.
The man possibly most responsible in modern times for spreading the idea of Bacon's New Atlantis as the embodiment of the "Holy Grail" in America, was the great 20th Century mystic and occultist Manly P. Hall. In his "Secret Destiny of America" (1958) Hall noted that,
"For more than three thousand years, secret societies have labored to create the background of knowledge necessary to the establishment of an enlightened democracy among the nations of the world ... and they still exist, as the Order of the Quest ... All were searching for one and the same thing under a variety of rituals and symbols. That one thing was a perfected social order, Plato's commonwealth, the government of the philosopher-king."
Hall contends that Bacon and other influential Elizabethan figures of his younger years, like Drake, Walter Raleigh and John Dee, all belonged to that secret Order and sought to perpetuate their ancient tradition on the new "unoccupied" continent. The Order is said to have been "Rosicrucian", in the nature of its symbolism and mystical beliefs (2). This is of course a very interesting connection for Grail seekers, because the founder of the modern Rosicrucian Order in medieval times is said to have been Jean De Gisors, also believed by some to be the founder of the now famous Priory of Sion, the "guardians of the Grail".
The voluminous research conducted on this topic leaves little doubt that "some kind" of an esoteric ;;doctrine is very likely to have lain at the foundation of the United States. In addition to the Baconian philosophy and similar doctrinal evidence, this theory also finds a great deal of support in the incredible wealth of Masonic and otherwise esoteric symbolism present in the architecture of Washington DC and other important places, a topic well studied and documented.
I have chanced upon another extremely interesting yet curiously entirely overlooked link between the origins of America and the legend of the Holy Grail.
When browsing through the history of Northern Virginia in the US, the area known as "the Northern Neck" near Washington DC and westwards, one is struck by a very interesting entry right at the top of every timeline. It says that the history of European settlement in the region began with the lands in question being given as a gift from King Charles II to seven of his most loyal supporters, known as the Seven Barons, in the year 1649 (3).
The year 1649 is one that will ring many bells for any serious student of England, because it was by no means an insignificant year in that country's history. It was the only time they ever had a reigning monarch executed by his own countrymen. He was executed by what can be termed a "popular revolution", more precisely a revolt by his disgruntled nobility. This was Charles I, the father of young Charles II.
Despite what one might think from reading the bloody history of Europe, the execution of a reigning monarch was far from a regular phenomenon. In fact it happened only three times in modern history - the other two being Louis XVI in the French Revolution of 1793, and Nicholas II in the Communist Revolution in Russia in 1917. The two latter events forever changed the course of our entire history - the first produced Napoleon and his conquests, and the second heralded the Soviet Empire and the Cold War.
The English Commonwealth Revolution, which executed Charles the First, can be said to have influenced the world in similarly far-reaching ways. It was the first time in modern history that the King's nobility had successfully challenged his right to make unilateral decisions based on his "regal prerogative" alone, or implementing what is known as the Divine Right of Kings. The philosophy behind the Commonwealth Revolution created the system of Constitutional Monarchy, which still persists in many countries. It led to the consolidation of the English Parliament as a ruling body, which became the progenitor of every elected parliamentary system we know today.
The Parliamentary doctrine of 17th Century England produced vital works of political philosophy, such as the Bill of Rights, used in 1688 to oust the Catholic James II from the throne. It's a most important document in the history of Political Science - not least because many of its precepts were incorporated a hundred years later into the US Constitution, which created a democratically elected government, independent and disdainful of any Royal power.
The early English influence on the origins of America in that respect is undisputed (although during the War of Independence itself, it was of course the French who were heirs to that legacy and thus allies of the new Americans, while the political system of England reverted to the old Royal ways.) ;;But the mentioned date in the historical records of Virginia means that we need to take a look at another most interesting aspect of the story.
The important point is, that Charles II was NOT the "King of England" in 1649. After the beheading of Charles I on January 30, the official Ruler of England was Oliver Cromwell, the leader of the Commonwealth Parliament, who bore the title "Lord Protector of England". And Charles II at that time was but a youth of nineteen, probably confused and scared, who had just seen his father beheaded and was on the run himself, hiding out in the French forests. As a "deposed monarch", he was in no position to make any land grants which would be recognized by the "official government". Why then, do the records mention his name as the one who made the original grants?
One reason would undoubtedly be the historical English penchant for Royalty, which doesn't like to see a break in its succession. For example, looking at this typical historical timeline of the period, we see the following two entries:
"30 Jan 1649 CE Parliament became the supreme power in England under the rule of Oliver Cromwell.
30 Jan 1649 CE The Prince of Wales becomes King Charles II, of England, although technically Britain is a republic." (emphasis mine) (4)
In fact it was Cromwell who was the actual ruler of England, and Charles II who was "technically" still considered the King by some. For royal genealogists, the succession continued even when he was in exile. And a decade later, when he was reinstated on the throne in 1658, he approved and ratified the land grants he made earlier, thus giving his seven barons the official legal title to the holdings, according to the law of the land (5).
But what was so important about this particular land grant, that it had to be made so urgently, right after the power switch in England and with Charles II hiding in France? Surely this could've been done later in a more orderly fashion, like other grants indeed were. To answer that question, we must recall the vital fact that Charles II and his father were not only Kings of England and Scotland, but also heads of the Stewart dynasty, usually spelled "Stuart".
The Stewarts/Stuarts have been named by the writers of "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" and much of the subsequent literature which that book prompted, as nothing less than the Heads of the "secret brotherhood" charged with safeguarding the Holy Grail on the British Isles, and in fact themselves hereditary descendants of the Merovingians and the sacred Grail Dynasty. The Grail itself, whether a physical artifact or a person or both, was said to have been safely secreted in Scotland by Templars fleeing from France, with Roslyn Chapel being a likely location.
The English Revolution was actually a Civil War between several conflicting factions on the Isle, and a most troubling time for the Stewarts (and consequently their "Grail fraternity".) They were besieged not only by Cromwell's parliament in England, but also by the Presbyterian parliament in Scotland.
If Scotland was indeed the resting place of "the Grail" and the Stuarts its champions, then the English Revolution would surely be a time when its keepers would need to seriously consider moving something as vital as this charge to a safer location again.
Civil wars are notoriously a time when one doesn't know whom to trust, one's old friends could suddenly go over to the "other side". The best case in point is Charles I himself, who trusted the Scottish Parliament and surrendered to them hoping for help, but was instead handed right over to Cromwell, to later be executed.
In such a situation, it seems obvious that young Charles II had been pressed by others in the Grail circle into urgently making the Virginia land grants right after his father's beheading. It was the time to quickly ferry the Grail to safety - away from their troubled country and to that far-away land across the ocean. Title to the land was an important facet of the operation, so that their ownership of the Grail's resting place would not later be disputed. They used the atmosphere of confusion which the upheavals caused to their advantage, removing and transferring the cache unobserved.
The story of Charles II and the Seven Barons in the Virginia annals with the incongruous date, is the clue they left in the history books for future researchers who would seek the Grail in later times. It was meant to tell us that the Grail was taken from Scotland and moved to Virginia, in the years immediately following the execution of Charles I.
Upon looking closer at the history of that State, we see that it is perhaps the single most significant place in the development of the United States. Jamestown, Virginia (not Plymouth, Massachusetts) was the location of the first viable English colony on the New Continent, in 1607. It was also the first financially successful English overseas venture, from which pretty much all of modern American business and commerce spawned. And as noted earlier, the original charter was written by Francis Bacon himself.
The land holdings of the Seven Barons are said to have all been eventually purchased by one of them, Thomas Culpeper, whose daughter married Thomas Fairfax, fifth baron of Cameron. Their son, Thomas Fairfax the sixth Cameron, became a personal friend and benefactor of both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. His support was one of the chief factors which brought these men to early prominence.
The region had afterwards become synonymous with the Fairfax name (6). Later, part of the Northern Neck grant lands became Washington DC, the National Capital no less, and a great deal has been written about the significance of its location at those precise coordinates (7).
The name "Virginia" itself is extremely meaningful in the lore surrounding the Grail. Named by Drake after the "Virgin Queen" Elizabeth I, it is in fact a symbol for the Maiden, a "virginal" form of the Goddess - who is the embodiment of the Sacred Feminine principle, which some say that the Grail represents.
We have here then, a most significant link to the early origins of the United States, and perhaps the underlying reason behind the vast amount of arcane meanings present in the various symbols of that country and in the layout of its capital city. This could be the final bit of evidence to clinch the theory that the Grail legacy *really* continued in America.
Several interesting locations in Virginia should be noted in that regard, in addition to Washington DC itself. The town of Williamsburg, further south from DC towards the historical Jamestown settlement, holds the famed Bruton Church, where Manly Hall and many others believed that Francis Bacon had hidden part of his "treasure", consisting of some immensely vital secret documents and other things (8).
For seekers of more modern thrills, there is the headquarters of the CIA at Langley, on the front lawn of which sits one of the great riddles of today - the enigmatic Kryptos sculpture (9). Formerly reputed to play a part in Dan Brown's upcoming Langdon novel, its three solved parts of the code seem to point to a hidden treasure, with an obvious link to Ancient Egypt - a description of Howard Carter opening of Tutankhamen's tomb. The CIA itself is of course implicated in just about every conspiracy theory one can think of.
Whether any of these connections are meaningful to the Greater Quest or not, is unimportant here. But that curious date in the historical annals of Virginia definitely appears to be a vital hint about the later fate of the Grail, after it left Roslyn Chapel in Scotland.
I think it's safe to say, "Yes Virginia, there IS a Sanity Clause".

In Memoriam: Stars We Lost In 2011
As 2012 approaches, it's appropriate to look back at which stars we lost over the last year. As always, the number of famous names on the list seems astounding. Each one meant something to many people, and their legacies will live on forever in the hundreds of films, TV shows and songs on which they left their mark.
It's impossible to include everyone, but we think these are among the most notable deaths of the year.
Let's take a look back. These are in no particular order.
Harry Morgan, 96
The lovable TV and film actor will always be best known for playing the fatherly Col. Potter on 'M*A*S*H.' He played the part for eight years, after replacing McLean Stevenson, and loved the part so much that he went on to star in the short-lived spinoff, 'AfterMASH.'
Maria Schneider, 58
She was best-known for heating up the screen with Marlon Brando in 1972's controversial 'Last Tango in Paris.'
Frances Bay, 92
This familiar-looking character actress was in scores of movies and TV shows, but most will probably know her for playing Adam Sandler's grandmother in the film 'Happy Gilmore.'
Anne Francis, 80
Perhaps most famous for being one of the first leading female TV detectives with her show 'Honey West,' Francis also turned in an unforgettable performance in 'The After Hours' episode of 'The Twilight Zone,' in which she played a mannequin that came to life. She dabbled in TV and film for decades after.

George Huguely Case Headed to Grand Jury
After a nearly nine-hour preliminary hearing Monday in Charlottesville, Va., a district court judge ruled that there was enough evidence against former Virginia men's lacrosse player George Huguely in the case of Yeardley Love's death to send the case to the next step of the legal process.
A grand jury in Charlottesville Circuit Court is scheduled to meet Monday to decide if it should indict Huguely on charges of felony murder, assault, robbery and burglary in Love's death and the theft of her computer.
The preliminary hearing Monday provided the most detailed account to date of the events that led to Huguely's arrest. Several news outlets have provided reports. Links are below.
Huguely's defense attorneys said in court that Huguely did not know Love was killed, and that he was suspect in the murder, until an hour into his interview with a Charlottesville police detective hours after Love's body was found.
Huguely was not present at the hearing. But relatives and friends were, as were relatives and friends of Love. At times, some left the courtroom as details emerged.
NBC: Grand jury gets murder case in lacrosse slaying
The Baltimore Sun: Court hears details of U.Va. lacrosse player Love's death
The Washington Post: Case of U-Va. lacrosse player Love's death advances to grand jury

Making a Difference
Douglas StanWiens
By Gwendolyn Purdom | From Preservation | January/February 2011
A few weeks before summer vacation in 2005, Douglas StanWiens, a high school teacher in Boise, Idaho, gave his students an assignment: Research the history of a local building. StanWiens hoped the project would keep his students engaged after finishing their advanced placement tests in U.S. history. He didn't imagine that his idea would grow into the Boise Architecture Project, a collaboration among hundreds of students from three area high schools and one fourth-grade class. Students have now researched and published the histories of more than 200 buildings, led historic house tours, attended civic meetings about preservation, even protested the demolition of the Cole and Franklin elementary schools. "Given the opportunity, students participate in architectural history and preservation, and do it willingly and gladly," StanWiens says. According to Kelly Waldo, a senior at Timberline High School, the city-wide project inspired her to consider studying architecture in college and introduced her to the wealth of styles—Art Deco, Egyptian Revival, Modern—in Boise. "A lot of these buildings have a historical value that shouldn't be overlooked," Waldo says. "I've realized that Boise is a pretty cool town."

It is not hard to figure out the best rated carpet cleaners in the market. You just need to go to the internet and search it. You will find dozens of websites that will directly give you the list of top rated machines along with their ranking and specs. While the ranking differs, the machines remain almost the same. Thus, it is easy to find out the top machines. However, figuring which one of them is the best for you can be very tricky. Rank one will be given to different products on different websites. And if you take help of your friends, all of them will have different opinions. Thus, it is up to you to figure out the best product. In order to do so, you should compare the top carpet cleaners and consider the following things.
Budget: The most important thing to consider while buying a carpet cleaner is the price. There is no point of wasting time on the products that are out of your range. Thus, you should decide a price range before you start comparing top rated carpet cleaner products. If you are flexible about the budget, then you can take a look at more cleaners.
Power: Whether you need a cleaner with more power or less depends on the type of carpet you have. If your carpet is hard, thick and porous, the cleaner should be powerful enough to get all the dust particles out easily. On the other hand, if it is soft and furry, you need a mild cleaner. A more powerful one might even damage the carpet.
Capacity: Tank capacity is a very important factor. Most of the people think that a bigger tank is always better. Well it is, but only if you have a lot of carpets to clean. It will allow you to clean all of them without having to empty and refill the tank repeatedly. It will save a lot of time and will allow you to do the things you actually enjoy. But there is a drawback too. A larger tank will mean that the cleaner will get very heavy after using it for a while. You will have trouble taking it up or down the stairs. So, you will have to compromise with one of the two things. Or you can balance both and select a cleaner with a tank neither too big nor too small.
Cord: Length of the cord can make a lot of difference. Most people forget to consider this factor. You should try to keep in mind. If it is too short you will have to keep plugging and unplugging the cleaner in different sockets as you move around the room. Also, if it is too long, you will not be able to handle it easily. So the cord length should be perfect. All the top rated carpet cleaners would probably have the right length, but you should still check before making any decision.
