This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 07/868,971 filed Apr. 16, 1992.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a tablet dispenser and is particularly noteworthy for being child resistant and, at the same time, elderly friendly. More specifically, the invention relates to a container and dispenser for tablets which may be opened only upon the combined execution of two simple separate operations beyond the ability of a young child, but readily performable by the elderly.
With the concern about accessibility to medication which may be toxic to infants, there has been a flood of different dispensing containers which resist opening by a young child. Often these containers have required special manipulation, adult strength and good eyesight to operate and have been based on the ability of the user to understand directions usually imprinted on the container. Some, for instance, have required force in a certain spot.
In some cases, the aim to make a container or dispenser child resistant has been taken to extremes and has prevented the access by those for which use of the contents are intended: the elderly have been frustrated because they have neither the strength or cognitive skills to perform the needed operations. In such cases the purpose of the dispensing container, to dispense, has itself been defeated.
2. Description of Related Art including Information Disclosed under ��1.97 to 1.99
Examples in the prior art of such structures are found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,563,368 which issued Feb. 16, 1971 to Wilfred L. McHugh; U.S. Pat. No. 4,113,098 which issued Sep. 12, 1978 to Charles S. Howard; U.S. Pat. No. 4,126,224 which issued Nov. 21, 1978 to Robert H. Laauwe et al; U.S. Pat. No. 4,844,284 which issued Jul. 4, 1989 to Edward Drozd et al. These are examples of containers which generally require the manipulation of one part relative to another.
A dispensing container comprises an open-fronted housing having an opening in its top wall and a drawer which slideably fits in the housing. The drawer has a front cavity section and a rear latch section. The latch section includes a horizontally disposed resilient panel formed with an upward button which, when the drawer is closed, extends up through the opening in the top wall of the housing and forms a latch, holding the drawer closed. In order to open the drawer, the button must be depressed and, at the same time, the drawer must be pulled out from the housing. The top of the housing is formed, adjacent the opening for the button, with a relief zone such as an opening or a domed section into which the button moves when the drawer is in dispensing position. The configuration of the dome and button cooperate to block further opening of the drawer.
Variations of the invention include a projection in the opening which fits into a recess in the button to prevent opening until the button has been depressed. Also, a trap may be incorparated into the structure which only makes one tablet available for each opening of the drawer. In another variation the cavity section is a zig-zag channel in which tablets flow visible through the cover which is transparent marked with indicia to indicate the days of the month so that the taking of the daily tablet will be remembered. In still another version the resilient panel is a separate metal spring rather than an integral part of the molded drawer.
Further versions include ones in which the resilient latch panel is defined by spaced parallel slits, and ones wherein the floor of the drawer is apertured and receives a multiblister pill pack with the blisters in registry with the apertures.

A dispenser embodying the invention is generally designated 10 in FIG. 1. It comprises an open-fronted housing 12 having a top wall 14 and side walls 16 and drawer retaining means which may be a partial bottom wall 18 (FIG. 9). A cutout 18a in the bottom wall may provide access to the bottom of the drawer 26.
The top wall is formed intermediate the side wall 16 with an opening 20. Longitudinally spaced and in line with the opening 20 is a relief zone in the form of a domed section 22. The housing may be molded of a suitable plastic such as high-density polyethylene or polypropylene.
Slideably disposed in the housing is a molded plastic drawer 26. The drawer comprises a front end panel 28 having marginal portions which, when the dispenser is closed, butt against the front of the housing (FIG. 1). The drawer is defined by a front tablet-receiving cavity section 30 and rear latch section 32. The sections are integral, formed preferably as one unitary piece.
The cavity section comprises a floor or bottom wall 34, side walls 36, 38 and a rear wall 40. The latch section 32 includes the floor or bottom wall 42, the side walls 44, 46, and the rear wall 48. As shown in FIG. 3, the side walls 44, 46 are shorter and closer together than the side walls 36, 38 of the cavity section but the rear wall 48 extends beyond the side walls in extensions 50.
To the upper end of these extensions 50 a "living hinge" 52 hingedly supports a resilient hinge panel 54, formed centrally (FIG. 3) with a downward domed-shape button 56. Rearward nibs 58 are formed on the rear wall 40 of the cavity section outside the side walls 44, 46 of the latch section.
In assembly the resilient panel 54 hinged at 52 is folded over (see arrow FIG. 3) and its distal edge is tucked under the nibs 58. This holds the panel in position, resting on the upper edges of the side walls 44, 46 of the latch section 32. Because the panel 54 is resilient and only supported at its opposite ends, the button 56 may be pressed downward (FIGS. 4a and 13) and will return to its original position by the resilience of the material.
Preferably the entire drawer assembly as shown in FIG. 3 is molded to form a unitary integral piece as described and shown. The plastic material may be high-density polyethylene or polypropylene, for example. Polypropylene has been found to make the best-acting spring panel 54.
FIG. 5 shows the drawer, assembled, about to be slid into the open-fronted housing 12. In this insertion the rear wall 48 of the latch assembly is aligned with the front opening in the housing 12 and the button 56 is depressed to permit the drawer to enter the opening. As the drawer is slid into the housing, the top wall 14 holds the button 56 depressed.
As the drawer is inserted farther, the button 56 moves up into the relief zone or dome 22 (FIG. 6c) so that the resilient panel 54 is allowed to revert to its normal flat condition. Forcing the drawer in farther causes the cam undersurface 22b of the dome 22 to engage the top of the button 56 and force it downward again. When, thereafter, the drawer is totally installed, the button 56 will move up in the opening 20, automatically latching the drawer in the closed position (FIGS. 1, 7).
Assuming that the cavity section 30 is filled with tablets such as T in FIG. 2, the dispenser may be opened only upon the depressing of the button 56 flexing the panel 54 into the position shown in FIG. 6b. Simultaneously with or after the depression of the button 56, the drawer 26 may be opened, the user grasping the drawer on its front upper edge (FIG. 1) and through the opening 18a (FIG. 12) in the partial bottom wall. The bottom 34 is provided with the strengthening ribs 60 as shown in FIG. 12. To assist in the opening of the drawer, the ribs may be formed perpendicular to those shown, transverse to the drawer. In the FIG. 12a version the bottom wall 18 extends in a bridge 18b across the width of the housing at the rear thereof to provide a surface on the opposite side of the dispenser from the button. This arrangement makes it easy for the user to put a forefinger on bridge 18b and a thumb on the button and squeeze the button down to open the drawer. The ribs 60' are shortened so as not to interfere with the bridge.
Once the depressed button passes out of alignment with the opening 20, it stays down, held down by the top wall 14 until it reaches the relief zone or domed section 22 whereupon it is permitted to raise to the position shown in FIG. 6c, leaving the drawer in the dispensing position as shown in FIG. 2. Because the button is permitted to raise in the domed section after opening, the spring panel 54 is fully relieved. This ensures against a "cold set" of the panel which might otherwise happen if the package were left open for prolonged periods of time with the button down. Clearly such a "cold set" would leave the spring panel 54 less functional at the expense of child resistants. The dome 22 thus comprises a relief zone. Instead of a dome 22, the relief zone may be a simple opening in the wall 14 to permit popping up of the button.
As will be noted, in FIG. 7 the button 56 is formed with a transitional vertical edge 56a. This edge, when the drawer is in the dispensing position of FIG. 2, butts against the vertical shoulder 22a formed in the underside of the domed section 22 (FIG. 8). As these vertical surfaces butt, there is a positive stop to further opening of the drawer 26.
Subsequent closing of the drawer is effected as described in connection with the assembly of the dispenser above. The forceful closing causes the sloping cam surface 22b (FIG. 6c) of the domed section to urge the button 56 downward, permitting closing of the drawer. When the button 56 aligns with the opening 20 in the housing, it raises to the position shown in FIGS. 6a and 7.
Just as the button is formed with a vertical section 56a, the opening 20 has a confronting vertical section 20a (FIG. 7). These vertical sections, butting together, will frustrate any attempt to open the drawer without depressing the button 56.
As shown in FIGS. 9 through 11, the opening 20 may be formed in a modification with a tongue 20c and the button 56 with a peripheral recess 56c facing the tongue. When an attempt is made to open the drawer without depressing the button in this modification, the tongue 20c is received into the tongue recess 56c, locking the drawer against further opening. Thereafter, to open the drawer it is necessary to fully reclose the drawer, press the button and then open the drawer.
It should be noted in FIG. 7 that beneath the vertical sections 20a and 56a on the button and in the opening respectively, there is a chamfer 20b on the opening and a fillet 56b on the button. Cooperating, the fillet and chamfer serve to center the button in the opening as the button moves up. This assures that when the drawer is closed, the button is up at maximum engagement with the margin of the opening 20.
It will be clear from the aforegoing description that in order to open the drawer to the dispensing position shown in FIG. 2, it is necessary for the user to depress the button 56 so that the vertical section of the button 56a clears the vertical section 20a of the opening 20. At the same time, the drawer 26 must be drawn out by grasping the drawer by its bottom surface 34 and the top edge of the front wall 28, for instance. These two operations, which must be done simultaneously, are totally beyond a young child. At the same time, however, the elderly can understand the need for performing the two operations simultaneously and the pressing, gripping and pulling will come naturally to him or her. The dispenser is thus child resistant and elderly friendly.
Modifications of the invention are shown in FIGS. 14 through 20. In FIG. 14 the drawer 26' is provided with a spacing block 62 which takes up the major portion of the front of the drawer but stops well short of the rightward corner (FIG. 14) so that a single tablet is exposed when the drawer is open. This assures that only one tablet at a time can be removed from the dispenser when the drawer is open. What this arrangement does is to localize the dispensing of tablets from one side of the drawer only. It is intended as a convenience to the user. Further, if the dispenser is on a flat surface when the drawer is open, it will mean that only one tablet can be dispensed. Obviously, if the dispenser is tilted forward, additional tablets will be available one after the other. The block 62 is slanted at its inward end to funnel the tablets down toward the dispensing space at the right hand end of the drawer.
The FIGS. 15, 15a modification is more elaborate. The idea here is to dispense one tablet and one tablet only for each opening of the drawer. This is effected by providing a rightward extension 30a of the cavity section 30" as well as an extension 12a of the housing 12", shown in dotted lines in FIG. 15. This extension 30a is accessed by a passage 64 in the side wall 36" of the cavity section. Additionally, depending down from the top wall 14" adjacent the front thereof is a partition 66. The rear wall of the extension 30a is vertically slotted at 31 (FIG. 15a) to pass the partition 66 in assembly.
The operation of the FIG. 15, 15a modification is simple. With the drawer closed within the housing, the dispenser is shaken and a single tablet moves through the passage 64 into the extension 30a of the cavity section. Subsequently, when the drawer is opened (FIG. 15a), the partition 66 (being fixed on the housing 12") aligns with the passage 64 so that no further tablets can enter the extension 30a. A blocking ledge 68, which angles across the front of the cavity section 30" acts in much the same way the block 62 does in the FIG. 14 embodiment and makes tablets in the main part of the cavity section inaccessible. Once the isolated tablet is removed from extension 30a, no further tablet will appear there until the drawer is closed, the dispenser shaken and the drawer reopened.
The FIG. 16 embodiment, as compared with the FIG. 3 preferred embodiment, includes in the drawer 226 the additional support walls 70, spaced inward from the walls 146, 144 and providing the panel 254 with more closely placed support means to limit the flexibility of the button if desired or necessary.
FIG. 17 shows a drawer 226 in which the latch section includes an integral stop rib 72 against which flexible panel 254 bottoms out to avoid overstress of the panel 254 in pushing down the button.
The FIG. 18 modification includes the drawer 326 compartmenting partitions 74 parallel to the side walls 338 and 336 in which tablets may be lined up on their edge, the front of the compartments being notched out as at 76 to afford easier access to the tablets. Ramps 78 may be formed in the front of the drawer to assist in the "roll-out" of the tablets.
The FIG. 19 modification is similar to the preferred embodiment with the exception that the cavity section 430 is shaped (instead of a rectangular open space) with a zig-zag canal 80 in which the tablets are placed. Additionally, the housing 412 is made of transparent plastic and indicia 82 are molded or printed thereon to overlie positions in the canal 80. Thus, when the dispenser is positioned with its front end down, the tablets fall in pinball fashion to the lower end of the canal and the indicia overlying the position of the upper tablet indicate how many tablets remain in the dispenser. Alternatively, if the indicia 82 are appropriately arranged by the days of the month, for instance, or days of the week, they will indicate to the user whether or not a tablet has been taken that day. This is particularly helpful to forgetful elderly persons.
As an additional modification, FIG. 20 shows that the flexible panel and button of the earlier embodiment may be replaced by a separate resilient panel 554 of metal with its button 556. Such a separate panel may be snapped under nibs (not shown) similar to nibs 58 and supported on the top of the end wall 544 and 546 (not shown). It should be understood that in all other respects a dispenser according to the invention and as shown in FIG. 20, operates identically with the above described dispenser of the FIGS. 1 through 5 embodiment.
In a further modification, shown in FIGS. 21 through 24, the latch button 656 is molded in a latch panel 654 which is defined by a pair of parallel slots 660 in the top wall 662 in the latch section 664. The latch section is an inverted open box (FIG. 22) which is integral with the drawer section 626.
The drawer section comprises the front wall 628, the bottom wall 634, and side walls 636 and 638 which define the tablet receiving cavity 630. Aside from the latch top wall 662, the latch section 664 comprises the side walls 644 and 646 and the rear wall 648, all integral, molded together and unitary with the drawer section 626.
The slots 660 permit the latch panel 654 considerable flexibility and resilience in the area of the button 656. As a result, the button 656 can be depressed through the opening 620 in the top of the housing 612. The relief zone 622 in the hollow of the dome, as shown in earlier embodiments, permits the button to return to its original upward position when the drawer, open to avoid the "cold set" of the latch panel 654 which might otherwise happen without such a dome or other relief zone such as a simple opening. The button and domed section may be as described in connection with FIGS. 7 and 8 to block further opening of the drawer.
The advantage of the FIGS. 21 through 24 embodiment is that the button is molded in place and there is no requirement for hinging the latch section over as with the FIG. 3 embodiment, for instance. There is also no need for a separate latch panel as in the FIG. 20 embodiment.
The modified form of the invention shown in FIGS. 25 through 32b comprises, as best shown in FIG. 29 the housing 712 and the drawer 726. The housing comprises the top wall 714, the side walls 716 and a full bottom wall 718. The top wall is provided with an opening 720 spaced back from the front opening of the housing. The top wall is also formed with a relief zone in the form of an opening 722 similar to opening 720 and in line forward of the latter opening.
The drawer 726 (FIG. 25) comprises the side walls 736 and 738, the front wall 728 and the floor or bottom wall 734. The floor 734 is multiply apertured as at 770. Preferably, the rows across the drawer are of seven each for reasons which will appear.
Aside from the cavity section 730, the drawer 726 also comprises the latch section 764 which includes a latch panel 754 bridging between the side walls 736, 738. At the midpoint of the latch panel 754, the panel is formed with an upward rectangular button 756 with a perpendicular front end 756a and a sloping rear end 756b (FIG. 30a). Above the perpendicular front end 756a there is a rearwardly and upwardly bevelled section 756c.
Below the latch panel 754 is the card locking bow 772 (FIGS. 25, 26a) which also bridges between the side walls 736 and 738 is before assembly of the unit bowed downward in its center (FIG. 26a). Extending inward along the side walls 736, 738 respectively and spaced upward from the floor 734 are a pair of ribs 774.
A dispenser card 780 (FIG. 25), a separate piece from the drawer, is provided. It comprises a thin frangible base layer 780a to the upper surface of which is laminated a clear plastic pocketed layer 780b. The pocketed layer comprises rows of upward collapsible pockets 780c arranged seven in a row to register exactly with the opening 770 and the floor 734 of the drawer. Each of the pockets holds a tablet T or a pill (FIG. 31a).
As shown in FIG. 25, the pockets may be identified with intervals of periodicity, for instance, the days of the week, in the embodiment shown. Alternatively the number of pockets in a row may be a different number and marked to indicate the times of the day at which a pill must be taken.
In assembly the card is inserted from the rear of the drawer (FIG. 25) through the opening between the latch panel 754 and the locking bow 772 so that the sides of the card 780 track into the slots 730 under the ribs 774 and come to rest against the front panel 728 of the drawer 726 with the card directly superposing the floor 734 and the pockets in registry above the respective floor openings 770. At this point the locking bow 772 is pressed upward (FIG. 26b) to spring up over-center fashion to the bowed upward position (FIG. 26c) to lock the card against rearward displacement in the drawer 726. This assures that the pockets 780c will remain registered respectively with the openings 770.
In the final stage of assembly, the drawer 726 is aligned in front of the opening of the housing 712 (FIG. 27) and moved inward of the housing. Upon contacting the front edge of the top wall, the latch 756 will be cammed downward as the resilient latch panel 754 flexes down. Upon arriving at the relief zone, that is, opening 722, the latch button 756 will pop up into that opening and, as the drawer is forcibly moved rearward into the housing once again, the latch button 756, because of its rear end cam-shaped surface 756b, moves downward (FIGS. 32a, 32b) to permit the drawer to be moved inward further. Finally, when the drawer is fully in the housing 712, the latch button 756 will pop up in opening 720 to latch the drawer in the closed position.
It should be noted that the front wall 728 of the drawer has ends which extend laterally beyond the side walls 716 of the housing. When the drawer is closed these ends are accommodated by notches 736a and 736b (FIG. 27). In the dispensing operation the user will grasp the sides of the drawer front panel 728 with the thumb and forefinger of one hand and with the other hand squeeze downward the button 756 by grasping the rear of the housing by the button 756 and the lower wall 718 with thumb and forefinger.
Actually, it is probably not possible with the thumb or forefinger to press the button 756 down far enough to clear the wall 714 because the size of the opening will not permit it. The purpose of the beveled section 756c is to assist in the lowering of the button. As the drawer is pulled forward, section 756c contacts the front edge of opening 720, and this contact cams the button down the rest of the way so that the button top can engage the underside of top wall 714.
With the latch button 756 thus downward (FIG. 30b) the drawer may be pulled open. Once the button 756 has cleared the opening 720, the button will be held down by top wall 714 and the drawer may be pulled further open. When the drawer reaches the position shown in FIG. 29, the button 756 pops up in the relief zone or opening 722. The perpendicular front wall 756a of button 756 butting against the margin of opening 722 prevents further opening of the drawer.
At this point (FIG. 29) the cavity 730 of the drawer 726 is fully exposed and the rows of pockets 780c are clearly visible along with their indices of periodicity (for instance, days of the week as shown in FIG. 25). The user then (FIGS. 31a, 31b) merely presses the top of the proper collapsible pocket 780c (FIG. 31b). The pocket gives way putting pressure on the pill and forcing it to burst the frangible base layer 780a therebelow.
After the user has some experience, he will be able to catch the dropping pill in the palm of the same hand with which he supports the container, or the entire unit may be placed over a table to catch the falling pill.
It will be noted that the apertured floor 734 is firm enough to support the rather fragile card 780 against the pressure of the user's finger as he presses down the pocket 780c. In FIG. 31a it can be seen that the bottom margins of the openings 770 may be chamfered, whereas the top surface of the floor 734 about the opening is left unchamfered to provide a sharp edge which may assist in the rupture of the base layer 780a (FIG. 31b).
Once the drawer is opened in the position shown in FIG. 29, it is thus an easy matter for the user to push down the proper pocket 780c and dispense the pill thereunder. The markings which are preferably provided for every row show the intervals of periodicity and are a help to the user in determining which pocket to press and so that thereafter there is an automatic indication that the pill has been taken on a given day. The pills are readily dispensed from the open drawer as described above. As a matter of fact, once the drawer has been opened, pills can be pressed down and dispensed even by a child. However, opening the drawer requires the cognitive skills and finger/thumb span of an adult and, hence, the dispenser is indeed child-resistant. The elderly, on the other hand, will find the container readily openable and will be able to dispense the pills without difficulty.
After the single pill is dispensed, the user may close the container by merely pushing in the drawer 726 into the housing and the cam surface 756b on the button 756 will press down the button as it moves against the top wall 714 at the margin of opening 722 (FIG. 32b). When the drawer is closed all the way, the button 756 will pop up in opening 720 and the perpendicular rear face 756a (FIG. 30a) will block the opening of the drawer until the button is again depressed and the drawer pulled forward (FIGS. 30b and 30c). The FIG. 25 through 32b modification is thus child-resistant and elderly friendly.
When the dispenser card is exhausted of tablets, it is a simple matter to replace the card 780 with a new card into the drawer 726. It is only necessary to snap the bowed lock 772 from the position shown in FIG. 26c to that of 26b and then slide out the exhausted card 780 and then slide in a new card under the ribs 774. The bowed lock 772 can then be resnapped from the position shown in FIG. 26b to the position shown in FIG. 26c. The drawer can then be returned into the housing.
The FIG. 25 through 32b modification comprising the drawer 726 and the housing 712 are both molded of a plastic which is resilient in its thinner dimensions, such as those of latch panel 764 and the bowed lock 772.
Even other variations and modifications are envisioned without departing from the spirit of the invention. Thus, while the invention has been shown in a limited number of embodiments, it is not so limited but is of a scope defined by the following claim language which may be broadened by an extension of the right to exclude others from making or using the invention as is appropriate under the doctrine of equivalents.

The crime occurred in broad daylight — about 2:30 pm — on April 21, 2016.
Three black teens — 17-year-old Xavier Porter, 15-year-old Quincy Parker, and 14-year-old Trevone Miller — were arrested in connection with the murder.
Charges include aggravated robbery and murder.
The accused were assigned a court date in October, 2016.
• Thompson was apparently shot to death as he sat in his car. Investigators originally assumed the death was caused by suicide.
The victim's aunt said her family was praying for the families of the alleged killers and is trying to forgive them. "I know that when you do forgive, you release the heartache from your own heart and I don't want that in my life."
Rather then riot, friends of the victim held a candlelight vigil.
• Black thugs have hunted white people for sport for generations. They frequently hunt in packs of three.
The attacks often result in severe injury or, as in the tragic case of Thompson, death.
The epidemic of black-on-white violence is inexcusable. The silence of the mainstream national media; even more so. The media, however, prefers to fret over the deaths of black thugs who are killed in self defense while attacking police officers.

while expressing her feelings
are the most innocent creature on the earth.
Never hurt her. !!
Advice is like snow
The softer it falls,
The longer it dwells upon,
The deeper in sinks into the mind.. !!

one minute to destroy someone's life…

Before you give someone advice,
be sure that
you would follow your own advice first.

Think less, feel more.
Be mindful of what you toss away,
Be careful of what you push away,
Think hard before you walk away… !!
Don't make decision based solely on popularity,
just because other people are doing
it doesn't mean it's the best choice.
Relationships are like glass,
sometimes it's better
to leave them broken
than try to hurt yourself
putting it back together. !!
You should respect each other
and refrain from disputes;
you should not, like water and oil,
repel each other,
but should, like milk and water, mingle together !!
It is better to keep your mouth closed
and let people think you are a fool
than to open it and remove all doubt.
Choose a job that you like

When good people consider you the bad guy,
you better develop a heart to help the bad ones.
You actually understand them.
Nothing hurts more in love than avoiding,
Don't avoid the person,
for whom you mean so much,
Getting avoided in love is like living in a hell.
Be careful about reading health books.
You may die of a misprint.
The only way for a rich man to be healthy
is by exercise and abstinence,
to live as if he were poor.
We must become the change we want to see.
To be a good Professional,
Always start to study Late for EXAMS…
Because it teaches You..
How to Manage "TIME" and tackle "EMERGENCIES"!!
Every great man was thought
to be insane before he changed the world.
Some never changed the world.
They were just insane.
Some people should consider
having multiple Facebook accounts
to go along with
their multiple personalities.
They think you're crazy, and sad.
They think you're weird, and mad.
They call you stupid, and worthless,
tell you that you're not worth it.
But in someone's eyes, you are perfect.
Live your life, take chances,
be crazy. Don't wait
because right now is the oldest
you've ever been and
the youngest you'll be ever again.
We will have to Repent to this generation,
not merely for the hateful words and actions of bad people,
But for the appealing silence of good people.
If the Mankind were to disappear,
the world would regenerate back to the rich state of equilibrium,
that existed 10,000 years ago;
If insects were to vanish, the environment would collapse into Chaos.
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago;
The second best time is now.
When people make you feel unwanted,
Don't leave to make them feel Sad or Guilty,
They won't Leave because you no longer have a reason to stay.
Sometimes you have to be strong for yourself.
What's meant to be will end up good 'n what's not – won't.
Love is worth fighting for,
but sometimes you can't be the only one fighting.
At times, people need to fight for you.
If they don't, you just have to move on
Realize what you gave them was more than
they were willing to give you !
Always be a first-rate version of yourself,
instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
You shouldn't open Your Mouth In Two Situations…
One while Swimming
The Other When You Are Angry !!
Silence is the fence around wisdom!!
If your foot slips,
You can always regain your balance..
But if your tongue slips,
You can never recall the words…
So think before saying anything in anger.
"Coins Always Make Sound"
But The Currency Notes Are Always Silent!
So When Your Value Increases
Keep Yourself Calm & Silent
Nice Saying:
Sorry Works When Mistakes Is Made..
But Sorry Does Not Work When Trust Is Broken..
So In Life Do Mistakes
But Never Break The Trust ..!

wow, you are all so greedy..the point of pinterest, etc is to share and collaborate.ReplyDeleteReplies
What's greedy is customers who assume that they can a) rip off hours beyond hours of incredibly hard work, and b) rip off the designers whom we use in our products. Besides helping with formatting, there is one main point to a seller making a product in PDF format: protection of copyright. Believe it or not, if we created products in, say a Word doc, and just sold them that way, there are tons of customers who would change one tiny thing and then re-post the item in their own store, completely disrespecting all the hours of work and thought we put into the product. Furthermore -- and almost more importantly -- is the graphic designs' Terms of Use. We purchase clipart to use in products with our own money, and those designers work very hard. If we don't secure their graphics in our products, then a) the designer gets jipped because anyone could "lift" those graphics for themselves for FREE, and b) the sellers and thousands of other people who have already purchased that clipart get jipped because we did the RIGHT thing by paying for clipart, while someone else mindlessly stole it.Delete
It is never an issue of greed; it is an issue of following the LAW (copyright) and having INTEGRITY.
~Mrs. K. from The Teacher Garden Blog
Thank you so much for your comments. I didn't know what to say to that! :) You ROCK!Delete
I second (or third) that!! I don't even create documents, but I respect the time, talents, and ideas of those who do. I am so thankful that there are resources that others create FOR US...many are FREE! THANK YOU if you are one who creates resources for us to purchase from you!Delete
Since I am not only a teacher but also a digital scrapbook kit designer, I already knew about this...I guess I just figured that everyone making teacher resources knew about it too. I am sorry that as teachers we have to be so careful about protecting our work. However, I've been doing it for years with the scrapbook kits.ReplyDelete
Mrs. B's Nook
Here's another view point:ReplyDelete
I've always wanted to change PDFs to Word because often the documents other people create are rendered useless if you can't "change one tiny thing" (as stated in another comment). There was an item I ran across last week. It was perfect, except my grade level was not one of the versions offered. I asked the creator if she'd be willing to adjust that. No response. So I moved on. Will I go back to her store? Not likely. Time is precious to all of us, and I'm going to deal with sellers who respond. But if I had the option to adjust "1st" grade to "2nd" I'd hang around to see what else she had to offer.
Hilary, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your work. I look forward to seeing what you create and am willing to purchase items I can use. I appreciate all your freebies. You offer top quality items.
I will NOT steal, repost, disrespect, or violate terms of your work. When fellow teachers ask where I get my ideas, I give credit where credit is due.
But the tone of your post and especially that of Mrs. K seems to assume we all are a bunch of jackers. (Sorry to learn that.) And quite frankly I'm a little put off by the tone. I recognize there are dishonest people in the world. And unfortunately, just as soon as you figure out how to protect your documents, they will figure out how to bypass the system. But not everyone who would seek to utilize a PDF changer is dishonest.
I am one of those who looked, with interest, into programs that convert PDFs into Word documents. Really, seriously, all I wanted was the option to change "one tiny thing" on some documents, thereby making a document I was purchasing tailored to the specific needs of my classroom. Nothing more.
Please don't let all the rotten apples spoil your faith in the rest of us!
Submitted with deep respect and appreciation for your work!
Chris Yazzie, a newsletter subscriberReplies
Hi Chris,Delete
I'm sorry if I came across snide, that wasn't my intention at all! It really isn't so much the words that I worry about, but the clip art that I have to have a license to use in my products. I value you as a follower and would definitely fix something like a grade level for you. I've fixed products to make them Canadian friendly several times! :) I have actually run across one of my products being sold on another site with my name taken off. It seems like the few always have to wreck it for the rest of us. I'm so sorry...I hope you know, I really didn't mean to upset anyone. :(
Thanks for your comment and for following.
Thanks for your response. I'm am sorry for the selfishness of another (or others) with which you have had to deal.ReplyDelete
And I've seen it too. I came across a product for sale on TpT that I instantly recognized as a copycat of something a retired teacher had available on her website for free. It was an old, old site that I had happily discovered by accident a few years back (long before blogs and TpT). I sent a message to the seller, but she didn't seem phased. ??? I don't know all the rules/protocols of selling, but I do know that it did't seem right.
I truly believe that we reap what we sow. At some point, those who are dishonest will face difficulty, difficulty they could avoid if they would acknowledge their actions, make amends, and consciously seek to make better choices. After all, how do we teach our students integrity if we ourselves do not practice it? Nonetheless, I will seek to look for the good in people. I know it exists, even though sometimes the ugliness of some temporarily overshadows the good of many.
Hillary, I understand that you would want to protect your work. I only hoped to let you know that not every misuses the PDF converter. And I'll tell a tale on myself ... even though I looked into to it, I couldn't figure it out. *smile*
I wish you best of luck as you continue with your products. I have always been impressed with your work. I will continue be one of your followers. You rock!Replies
Thank you Chris...You rock as well! :)Delete


text: Since my showers are probably split time-wise about 75% thinking about nonsense vs. 25% bathing, the place where I most often question the existence of God is while I'm in the shower. At some point, I feel like God is going to get tired of my agnosticism and, being the spiteful God that he is, use his power to fuck with me in the shower when I am most vulnerable. Every time I close my eyes to rinse my face with water, I feel like I'm somehow at risk of opening them back up to some horrifying image or sensation, like a creepy killer suddenly appearing in the shower next to me or blood raining down out of the showerhead. That Christian brainwashing I went through as a child must've imprinted pretty deeply in me.

So, just how did Fulham finish ninth, their first ever back-to-back top 10 finish in the top flight?
Chances were, if we were winning at half, we'd win the game. And if we were losing, we had a better chance than most at getting something out of the match. And that's not all:
- Never lost a single match when winning at half (10-1-0)
- Conceded just 4 goals in the second half when winning; one behind leaders Stoke City
- Finished 2nd overall in total points gained when losing at halftime with 8
- Finished 18th overall in total points gained when drawing at halftime with 13
- Tied with United overall for least amount of points dropped with just 6
- Yet, somehow, conceded 17 goals in the final 15 minutes, more than in 2007-08
How did our home record stack up with our away record?
- Had 7th best home record, behind every team that's going to Europe
- Nipped Stoke City for *not* having the least away goals scored in the entire Football League.
- Swansea City was the only team in the bottom 10 that defeated us at home
- Liverpool was the only team in the top 10 we beat on the road
- Beat Arsenal, Norwich, Sunderland, Stoke, and Wigan all by 2-1 at home
Anything else cool that may have helped?
- Didn't have a single red card all season
- Spurs' win on Sunday meant they won the London Derbies Cup, though we conceded the least amount of goals
- Clint Dempsey set a whole bunch of records. And then some.
Got any other stats worth mentioning?

IMMIGRATION WATCH....Here's the news....
In a new effort to crack down on illegal immigrants, federal authorities are expected to announce tough rules this week that would require employers to fire workers who use false Social Security numbers.And here, via Michael O'Hare, is the analysis, admittedly a little cryptic unless you click the link and read the whole thing:
....Experts said the new rules represented a major tightening of the immigration enforcement system, in which employers for decades have paid little attention to notices, known as no-match letters, from the Social Security Administration advising that workers' names and numbers did not match the agency's records.
The poor souls in DHS, apparently unhinged by anticipating the '08 elections, or some new horror from an IG or a Hill committee hearing, have completely forgotten (3), and worse, put a serious enforcement program into the hands of civil servants in the Social Security Administration, an army that will be as hard to call back as the sorcerer's apprentice's brooms. It's been so long since the last helpful political briefing that they have also forgotten that the employers in 3a and consumers in 3b are W's people! They're Republicans! Guys, we deplore illegal immigrant workers when Rupert needs a story maybe even abuse a few; we don't actually deprive ourselves of them!Like I said, click the link to find out what (3) is. Also (1) and (2).
My only demurral is that I have my doubts that this new initiative is going to be quite as thoroughgoing as Michael suggests. But we shall see.

"There is no place for a liquor outlet at the front gate of a school," said Robin Staples of Southern Cross Campus, which caters for about 2000 pupils from Years 1 to 13.
The school and the Mangere-Otahuhu Local Board are considering legal options after the Auckland District Licensing Committee granted Mr Jagjit Janjua and Ms Balbinder Janjua an off-licence for a liquor store above their grocery store at Wickman Way opposite the school.
The liquor outlet will be on the first floor of the building the Janjuas own, replacing a video parlour.
The Janjuas have agreed to surrender their off-licence for wine and beer at the grocery store, close the liquor store between 3pm and 4pm on school days and not sell single RTDs (ready to drink spirit-based drinks).
The closest off-licence liquor store is about 1km away.
Mr Janjua was not available to comment yesterday, but the licensing committee decision said he had traded at the premises since 1994 and quoted him saying he "was concerned about the exposure of alcohol to young persons and for that reason he had never promoted the availability of alcohol from the Price Cutter store externally".
The licensing committee, comprising Gavin Campbell, former local body politician Gwen Bull and Hibiscus and Bays Local Board member Gary Holmes, said there was no evidence "to conclude that the impact of the granting of the licence would affect amenity and good order to more than a minor effect".
"The evidence of the police is that there are no significant hot spots for alcohol-related reporting in the area", the decision said.
The reduction in hours by the Janjuas was enough for the police to withdraw opposition, but the establishment of a full-strength liquor store selling RTDs was opposed by the Auckland Regional Public Health Service and an Auckland Council licensing inspector, Anita Marsh.
Mangere-Otahuhu Local Board chairwoman Lydia Sosene said the decision was devastating for the local community, adding it would exacerbate crime and domestic violence in a neighbourhood with three gangs in the vicinity.

The Fender American Standard Jazz Bass is a refined player's instrument; a modern interpretation of their classic instrument for today's players.
Fender hit a giant bass home run in 1960 by introducing its deluxe-model four-string instrument, the Jazz Bass guitar. With its sleek offset body; thin, fast neck and rich, growling tone, it was a raring, roaring racecar of a bass that quickly established itself as a must-have instrument.
Features on the American Standard include the Fender high-mass vintage bridge; a thinner finish undercoat that lets the body breathe and improves resonance; improved Fender tuning keys that keep the classic look but are 30 percent lighter; a richer and deeper neck tint for a more elegant appearance; a great-looking glossed maple or rosewood fingerboard and satin back for smooth playability; and a Fender-exclusive molded case.
What started as a simple string and pedal sales catalog has grown exponentially over the past thirty years. The early days were a time where catalogs didn't have much of a presence in the industry, but what began as a college dorm room operation grew rapidly. In 1986 we moved to a full product offering and 64-page catalog, which over the years has grown to 162 pages. Join the AMS family and get your free catalog now!
