HELP!!! I have a problem with this book.........
Rather then scatter our requests for help with a book across all the training threads, how about if we try to post questions and requests for help here?
Great start!
It looks as though this push for proofreading is off to a strong start! Several people are working on a number of different books. Some of the books are very clean, but there are a few that need LOTS of proofing. (For the latter, a single person doing the work in Microsoft Word would be much more efficient, because you can make mass search/replace corrections.)
What's your feedback so far? Do the tools work adequately? Do we need any additional support--progress trackers for books, for example? Is it fun, rewarding, boring, ??

Schlafly: Immigrants 'Don't Really Understand Our Country And Will Probably Vote Democratic'
Eagle Forum's Phyllis Schlafly released a report earlier this month that summarizes her argument that Republicans shouldn't support immigration reform because she thinks Latino and Asian-American immigrants are inherently Democratic-leaning. Schlafly elaborated on the report in an interview Friday with Dove TV, claiming that immigrants will always vote Democratic because they "don't even know what you're talking about when you talk about limited government."
"These immigrants, legal and illegal, coming in don't really understand our country and will probably vote Democratic," she said.
Schlafly added that a "good example" of liberal-leaning immigrants were the Boston Marathon bombers, who she said came into the country through "the asylum gimmick" and proceeded to collect welfare. "So we don't want to just bring in more people to enhance the Democratic vote," she concluded.
Schlafly added that President Obama is supporting immigration reform because he "wants to spread the power around" because "he thinks it isn't fair that we're richer and more powerful than other countries and he wants to bring us down to the level of other people."

We're just a couple days into EuroBasket, but if favorite Spain goes on to win the gold medal, Pau Gasol is headed to being named MVP of the tournament. He has looked like the old Gasol — not the one from the Dallas series in the playoffs — with a plethora of moves around the…

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars is considered one of Napa Valley's first-growths. We were founded by Warren Winiarski and his family in 1970 and are best known for our estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignons — CASK 23, S.L.V., and FAY. Over the years, our wines have become some of the most highly regarded and collected wines worldwide. They are fashioned to express classic elegance, structure, and ageability, and to reflect the place in which they are grown. n May 24, 1976, a wine tasting took place in Paris that changed the world's view of California wines forever. The tasting was the brainchild of Steven Spurrier, an English wine merchant who owned an innovative wine shop and adjacent wine school in the center of Paris. Located near the offices of IBM, many of the students at L'Academie du Vin were Americans who worked in France and were anxious to learn more about wine. Spurrier was intrigued by some of the California Cabernets and Chardonnays his students brought by the shop. Curious to see how these newcomers would fare against French wines made from the same kind of grapes, he arranged a blind wine tasting in celebration of the American Bicentennial activities in Paris. The French tasters chosen for the event had impeccable professional credentials. The French wines were First and other classified-growth red Bordeaux and white Burgundies. They were matched against California Cabernet Sauvignons and Chardonnays. The tasting was blind, with the identities of the wines concealed and the labels revealed only after the jury of nine tasters had voted its order of preference. The unthinkable happened. The 1973 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon - the first vintage produced with grapes from vines a mere three years old - was judged the best. The Cabernet had bested four top-ranked Bordeaux, including first-growths Château Mouton-Rothschild and Château Haut-Brion. The 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay from California bested its French counterparts. TIME magazine's Paris correspondent was on hand for the tasting and broke the news. Less might have been made of the whole thing had the French tasters been other than top-notch - and had they been less disdainful toward the California selections as they tasted. The French tasters were stunned when the names of the wines were revealed. The impact of the tasting for California wines was immediate, like a vinous "shot heard round the world," as one observer put it, catapulting California wines onto the world stage by illustrating that exceptional wines could come from somewhere other than traditionally sacrosanct French terroir. The 1976 Paris tasting has been duplicated over the years, often with similar results. One of those tastings took place at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in 1996 to mark the 20th anniversary of the event. At that time bottles of the first-place wines--the 1973 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars' Cabernet Sauvignon, and the 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay--were placed into the Museum's collections. Today, the wines of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars continue to command the respect and admiration of wine aficionados the world over, proving beyond a doubt that the Paris victory was no accident, and that our Napa Valley wines age as gracefully as the beautiful and time-honored wines of Bordeaux Read less

Altar in the World, An
A Geography of Faith

In her critically acclaimed Leaving Church ("a beautiful, absorbing memoir."—Dallas Morning News), Barbara Brown Taylor wrote about leaving full-time ministry to become a professor, a decision that stretched the boundaries of her faith. Now, in her stunning follow-up, An Altar in the World, she shares how she learned to encounter God beyond the walls of any church.
From simple practices such as walking, working, and getting lost to deep meditations on topics like prayer and pronouncing blessings, Taylor reveals concrete ways to discover the sacred in the small things we do and see. Something as ordinary as hanging clothes on a clothesline becomes an act of devotion if we pay attention to what we are doing and take time to attend to the sights, smells, and sounds around us. Making eye contact with the cashier at the grocery store becomes a moment of true human connection. Allowing yourself to get lost leads to new discoveries. Under Taylor's expert guidance, we come to question conventional distinctions between the sacred and the secular, learning that no physical act is too earthbound or too humble to become a path to the divine. As we incorporate these practices into our daily lives, we begin to discover altars everywhere we go, in nearly everything we do.
Barbara Brown Taylor's last book, Leaving Church, was met with widespread critical acclaim including the New York Times, USA Today, NPR's Fresh Air, and others. Taylor spent fifteen years in parish ministry and was named one of the twelve most effective preachers in the English-speaking world by Baylor University in 1996. She became a professor of religion at Piedmont College in 1998 and also teaches spirituality at Columbia Theological Seminary. Still a priest in the Episcopal church, Taylor has traveled the world in pursuit of sacred wisdom, finding most of what she needed in her backyard. She lives on a working farm in rural north Georgia with her husband, Ed.

The apartment is located on the corner of Crown and Stanley streets, so is a very short walk through beautiful Hyde Park to the centre of Sydney city and is also an easy stroll to Sydney's other equally awesome neighbourhoods, including wonderful eateries and bars along Crown St in Surry Hills and Macleay St, Potts Point. Many of the city's best art galleries and museums, as well as the botanic gardens and other harbourside parks are within walking distance, too.
The apartment is waking distance to the best attractions in Sydney and only a 7 minute walk from Museum and Kings Cross train stations, making it super easy to directly access the airport and wider Sydney (as many different lines pass through these two stations). There is also a bus stop out the front of the apartment that provides quick and direct access to Circular Quay (the Opera House - though this is also a walkable distance) and Bondi Beach. The Central Business District is also located a 5 minute walk away through beautiful Hyde Park.
A few location highlights:
* There are loads of fantastic restaurants and cafes located on the same street as the apartment - literally footsteps from the front door
* Some of Sydney's coolest wine and cocktail bars are hidden in the laneways surrounding the apartment building, including Love Tilly Devine, Kubrick's, Pocket, Shady Pines and more...you won't need to budget for cabs when you are this close
* A few minutes away is Oxford St - home to some great fun bars and nightclubs
* There is a supermarket one block from the apartment open til midnight, 7 days a week as well as a convenience store located right across the road from the building, open til late every day
* A weekly farmer's market at Taylor Square every Saturday brings the best organic local produce to your doorstep

I have been working at Box full-time (More than 3 years)
I absolutely love this company.
- They've done an amazing job hiring people who are not only incredibly talented but also a blast to work with. The culture is focused and supportive.
- If you have the ambition, there are opportunities to match it. I've seen people make entire careers here in the span of a couple years.
- Empowering management style. You're trusted to exercise good judgment and make your own decisions.
- Experienced senior staff. SVP Engineering ran Google Apps for several years and is extremely sharp.
- The company is growing extremely fast, so occasionally people get moved into leadership positions who shouldn't have been and it takes too long to move them out.
- While people are empowered, they aren't always held accountable. The company has some growing up to do in that sense.
- There is a lot of technical debt which can be pretty frustrating at times (but also means that most things are getting rewritten, which can be quite fun to do).

- Act more quickly with poor performers in management.

I have been working at Box full-time (Less than a year)RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEORecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
There's never a dull moment. If you take initiative, there is always something amazing to do. And generally people are more than happy to step out of the way to let you go enact your vision or jump in to help depending on what you need. Everyone is incredibly friendly, you get free food, the benefits are super cheap (though not free), and the CEO is inspiring. This is a hot place to work- there's no doubt about it.
A lot of the folks are very inexperienced, and it can be frustrating to come in with experience under your belt and have to watch people make rookie mistakes without being able to jump in and save them from themselves. It's very frowned upon to say "Hey- you're doing this wrong". If you're trying to do something brand new- the sky's the limit. But if you're trying to change an existing system or practice, it can be very challenging to do so while tip-toeing around everyone's feelings. In some ways- it's great to be in a place that's so positive. In some ways it's paralyzing. This is particularly true if you're in the Customer Success department where an army of rookie, poorly trained (But very well-intentioned and hard-working) CSMs are running the show in ways that defy all logic (and their supervisors).
Advice to Management
Every department in Box moves at light speed except your Customer Success department. I know you want to keep things positive (and you should), but we need a little more top-down management to ensure that people are working in ways that further the organization's larger goals and not just their own.

Grande grande grande
|"Grande grande grande"
|Single by Mina
|from the album Mina
|"Non ho parlato mai"
|Vinyl record (7")
|Mina singles chronology
... it was thanks to the work of a young bass guitar player, Pino Presti, who offered a more modern musical arrangement, that finally made Mina agree to perform it.[1]
"Grande grande grande" is a 1972 Italian song, written by Alberto Testa and Tony Renis. It was a No. 1 hit for Mina in Italy and for Shirley Bassey released as "Never Never Never" in the U.K., U.S. and Australia.
Mina version[edit]
"Grande grande grande" was a No. 1 hit on the Italian Singles Chart for Mina in 1972, from her No. 1 self-titled album. The single was released in early 1972 and entered the Top 10 the week of February 26.[2]
After a steady climb to No. 2 (behind "Imagine" by John Lennon) the week of March 11, the song seemed to have run out of steam after falling 2 places to No. 4 to new hits by Delirium, Nicola Di Bari and Nada ("Imagine" had dropped to No. 5). By April 1, the song had once again climbed to its peak No. 2 position were it remained the whole month of April before finally reaching No. 1 on April 29. "Grande grande grande", arranged by Pino Presti,[3] ruled the charts the first three weeks of May until "I giardini di marzo" by her collaborator Lucio Battisti, and her own hit "Parole parole" knocked it out of the top spot down to No. 3 the week of May 27. "Grande grande grande" remained in the top 10 until the week of July 8, often trading places with "Parole parole". By the year's end, only "Il Padrino" by Santo and Johnny had enjoyed a longer life on the charts and Mina had to settle for the runner up position for 1972's biggest hit on the Italian singles chart.
Cover versions[edit]
- Shirley Bassey had a No. 8 hit in the UK with "Never Never Never", an English version with lyrics by Norman Newell. It was also No. 1 in Australia, No. 1 in South Africa, No. 3 in Singapore, and her only single to make three US charts: No. 48 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 8 on the Adult Contemporary Chart, and No. 67 on the R&B Chart. It is also a concert staple.[4][5][6][7]

METHQD OF MAKING BAND SAW BLADE 5 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Dec. 7, 1964 @JM Zaya! AAzziaman 1115mm]; [annoy United States Patent Olfice 3,315,548 Patented Apr. 25, 1967 3,315,548 7 METHOD OF MAKING BAND SAW BLADE Royal A. Anderson, Barrington, ill., and Eugene N. Connoy, Minneapolis, Minn., assignors to Contour Saws, lnc., Des Plaines, "1., a corporation of Illinois Filed Dec. 7, 1964, Ser. No. 416,367 4 Claims. (Cl. 76-112) This invention relates to the production of band saw stages and, more particularly, to metal cutting band saw a es.
Manufacturers of band saws have long known and appreciated that the ideal band saw blade is one in which the tips of the teeth are formed of high speed cutting tool steel, or its functional equivalent, and all the remainder of the bladeincluding that portion of each tooth below its high speed steel tipis formed of a steel alloy possessing the properties characteristic of spring steel, so as to be capable of withstanding shock and have high resistance to fatigue failure.
The attainment of that ideal saw blade or, more accurately, a commercially practicable way of producing it, has been an objective of the industry for a long time, and while substantial progress toward that end has been made in the past, it was not until the discovery upon which this invention rests that the ultimate goal was realized.
Examples of recent steps in the right-direction will be found in the W. T. Anderson Patent No. 2,786,788, the Connoy Patent No. 3,063,310, and the Connoy et al. Patent No. 3,089,945. But despite the improvements which the inventions of those patents produced, the demand for further improvement persisted.
Those most skilled in the art have always realized that if a wire of high speed tool steel could be secured to an edge of a strip or band of tough flexible steel with the bond therebetwcen as strong as the band, and if this could be done with minimum distortion and without incurring insurmountable straightening problems; if the teeth could be formed on the bimetal bandstock by milling rather than grinding; and, most of all, if all this were possible without complicating the heat treatment required to bring the tooth tips to their ultimate correct hardness, then the long sought goal would have been reached.
In a sense, therefore, it might be said that the purpose and object of this invention is to find some way of adapting the old concept of the Blum Patent No. 1,535,096, to a commercially practicable and feasible procedure, for in the Blum patent, as in the present invention, a high speed tool steel wire of relatively small cross section is secured directly onto one edge of a strip or band of carbon steel; but for band saw blade stock which must be provided in long lengths, this cannot be done by the resistance welding technique employed by Blum. One of the instant joint applicants made many attempts to do this but simply met with failure upon failure. The same discouraging results also must have been experienced by A. V. Bernstein, the inventor and assignee of Patent No. 3,034,379, since he found that:
"the welding of the high speed steel directly to the common or low alloy steel results in a welding joint containing hard brittle portions due to a partial melting of the steel during welding."
To avoid this objectionable condition, Bernstein interposed a thin strip of stainless austenitic steel between the high speed steel wire and the carbon steel backing band, but this sandwiching of a stainless steel strip between the backing band and the high speed steel wire has serious objections. Not only does it introduce production prob lems, but more significantly the presence of the austenitic material in the weld zone inevitably creates a soft, weak structure at the very point where utmost strength is needed. In addition, this sandwiching" approach introduces heat treating problems which the Bernstein patent leaves unanswered.
By contrast, this invention enables welding a high speed tool steel wire directly to an edge of a carbon steel backing strip or band without entailing any metallurgically objectionable structure in the weld zone, and without causing warping and camber to the extent that the attainment of acceptable straightness is impossible, which was one of the difiiculties experienced in all previous attempts to produce bimetal band saw blade stock in commercially practicable lengths.
But perhaps the most gratifying consequence of this invention resides in the fact that now, for the first time, it is possible with a single temperature heat treatment over which control can be exercised, to give the back of the band and all portions of each tooth below its high speed tool steel tip, the desired spring temper and the tips of the teeth the maximum hardness attainable with the chosen high speed steel.
Another very significant advantage of this invention is that it permits any high speed steel to be used for the tip material, the only limitatoin in this respect being that the steel chosen be capable of being drawn into' wire, and almost all grades of high speed tool steel are now available in this form.
It has been discovered that all of the aforesaid objectives and advantages can be achieved through the use of the new electron beam process. In this new technique, a highly concentrated sharply focused beam of electrons is caused to impinge upon the workpiece. The high kinetic energy resulting from the extremely high velocity imparted to the electrons, when transferred to the lattice electrons of the workpiece, generates higher lattic vibrations which produce an increase in temperature within the impingement area sutficient to accomplish work. The process and a machine for practicing it are disclosed in the Steigerwald Patent No. 2,793,281, issued May 21,
The adaptation of the electron beam technique to the production of bimetal band saw blades will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate one mode of practicing this invention, and in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective'view, more or less diagrammatically illustrating the apparatus employed in welding the high speed tool steel wire to one edge of a strip or band of carbon steel by means of the electron beam process;
FIGURE 2 is a perspective view at an enlarged scale, of the portion of the backing band and high speed steel wire at which the welding takes place, to better illustrate the welding operation;
FIGURE 3 is a side view of a short length of saw band produced by the method of this invention; and
FIGURE 4 is a block diagram depicting the sequence of steps involved in the complete method of this invention.
The production of band saw blade in accordance with the method of this invention begins with the selection and procurement of band or strip stock for the backing and the selection and procurement of the high speed steel wire which is to be welded to one edge of the band.
As indicated hereinbefore, any high speed steel that can be drawn into square wire may be employed. Both M2 and M3 wire has been used. The analysis of these high speed steels is undoubtedly well known to those skilled in the art, but for quick reference, the Connoy Patent No. 3,063,310, may be consulted.
The steel used for the backing must have the following characteristics:
(ll It should be all hardening;
(I) It should tolerate a hardening temperature of 2150- (3) Its nlloy content should be such that final hardness after two tempers at 1050 F. is in the 44-46 Rockwell C range;
(4) It must have excellent fatigue resistance; and
(5) It should be low in cost.
The steel alloy identified by the AISI-SAE number 6l50 has been found to be entirely satisfactory, but those skilled in the art will understand thatsteel alloys other than this one will meet the requirements and hence can be employed.
The first step in the method, as indicated by the block 5 on the sequence diagram FIGURE 4, consists in grinding one edge of the backing strip material. This is preferably done with the stock tightly coiled and on a Blanchard grinder. After being thus ground, the backing strip material and also the high speed steel wire are degreased in any conventional way, as indicated by block 6 of FIGURE 4.
One edge of the wire is then ground fiat and smoothblock 7 of FIGURE .4also in any conventional way and by means of any suitable grinding apparatus. The backing strip and wire are now ready'for the welding operation by which they are secured together.
The weldingblock 8 of FIGURE 4is done by the electron beam process, and while other machines may be suitable for the purpose, it was found that the electron beam welder manufactured by Hamilton Standard, a division of United Aircraft Corporation, under the aforesaid Stigerwald Patent No. 2,793,281, is entirely suitable for the purpose. This machine, as diagrammatically illustrated in FIGURE 1, comprises an electron beam column, indicated generally by the numeral 10, mounted on the top wall of a vacuum chamber 11. The column 10 contains means, not shown, for emitting electrons, focusing the electrons into a beam, and accelerating them to extremely high velocity. By means of an electromagnetic lens, also not shown, but located in the base of the column and controlled from an instrument panel 12, the operator can focus the beam onto the work inside the vacuum chamber 11, with a spot size of less than .015 inch at maximum power and of less than .005 inch at a lower power level.
A door in one end of the vacuum chamber permits a work-carrying fixture l3 riding on rails 14, to be moved into and our of the vacuum chamber. This fixture carries a coil of the flexible back-forming strip material or band and a coil of the high speed steel wire 16, and has means for advancing both the band and the wire lengthwise along defined paths which intersect one another edgewise with respect to the hand. For this purpose the fixture 13 mounts a reel 17, on which the coil of high speed wire is wound, and a pair of reels 18 and 19, the former carrying the coil of flexible back-forming strip material or band 15 and the latter having the welded bimetal blade stock coiled thereon as the welding operation proceeds.
Power driven means of any conventional type, including feed rolls 20-20 continuually draw the strip or band 15 off the reel 18 and at the same time pull the wire 16 off the reel 17, and suitable guide means 21 direct the advancing strip or band and the wire between the clamping rolls 22-22, with the ground edges of the band and wire facing each other so that the clamping rolls press these edges together. Preferably the fixture also includes a wire straightener 23 of suitable construction, through which the wire is drawn as it approaches the band.
The power means for advancing the band and wire is, of course, controllable to enable adjustment of the rate at which both move through the welding zone which is located just downstream of the clamping rolls 22-22.
With the fixture properly positioned in the vacuum 4 chamber 11, the electron beam--indicated at 24 in FIG- line of junction of the band and wire just after they leave URE l, but better shown in FIGURE 2--impinges the the clamping rolls, and welds the two together into the desired composite or bimetal band saw blade stock 25.
It is, of course, understood that after the fixture 13 is in place in the vacuum chamber and before the welder is turned on, the chamber must be sealed and evacuated, and when the proper degree of vacuum has been reached, the welding process may be started.
Experience has shown that this invention makes possible an exceptionally wide latitude in welding parameters. For instance, in experimental practice of the inventior the welding power was varied from a low of 240 watts to a high of 1080 watts, and the rate of welding, ie, the rate at which the band and wire progress through the welding zone, was varied from six feet per minute to sixteen feet per minute with very little, if any, change in the quality of the weld; and rates of sixteen feet per minute are being used.
Although some camber in the composite or bimetal band 25 was experienced, it was relatively slight, being only about six inches in ten feet. This was easily corrected by simply passing the composite or bimetal band through a tempering mufile such as that shown in FIG- URE 4 of the Connoy et al. 'Patent No. 3,089,945. Block 26 of FIGURE 4 indicates this straightening step.
After the composite band stock is straightened, it is annealed in any conventional manner to soften the weld area, block 27 of FIGURE 4. The annealed composite or bimetal band stock 25 is then dressed to thickness, block 28 of FIGURE 4, by means of a belt-type grinder or any other suitable apparatus.
The annealed and dressed composite band stock 25 then has teeth of the desired size and pitch milled into it, block 29 of FIGURE 4. In milling the teeth into the composite band, the teeth are, of course, formed in that edge of the band at which the high speed steel wire is located, and they are so milled or formed that only the tip portion 30 of each tooth 31 is of high speed steel. All the rest of each tooth, like the backing band, is of 6150 carbon steel.
After the teeth are formed, they are set, block 32 of FIGURE 4, an operation which may be performed in any conventional manner. The band with its milled and set teeth is then heat treated, block 33 of FIGURE 4. This is done by moving the band endwise at about two and onehalf to six feet per minute once through a high speed steel heat treating furnace having a muffle tube length of twelve feet and in which a selected final mufile temperature of between 2150 and 2275 F. is maintained, and then double tempering the band at I050 F. for two hours. Experience has shown that a muffle temperature of 2225 F. and a band travel of three feet per minute produces very good results, both with M2 and M3 high speed steel. The tips of the teeth, which were formed of M2 high speed steel had a hardness of 64-65 Rockwell C, and the tips of the teeth which were formed of M3 high speed steel had a hardness of 66-665 Rockwell C. In each instance the 6150 back had a hardness of 44-45 Rockwell C.
Photomicrographic examination of the weld zone securing the high speed steel wire to the backing band revealed an exceptionally fine and very narrow junction between the wire and the backing band, and every test that the saw blade could be subjected to showed it to be far superior to anything that had heretofore been achieved.
The greatly improved results obtained by this invention no doubt stem from the fact that the weld produced by the electron beam process is quite different from a weld produced by the conventional resistance welding method. The weld zone is capable of being annealed along with the rest of the bimetal band, which permits the teeth to be milled into the composite band, and during heat treatment the weld zone takes on the hardness of the tip portion of the teeth. But most significant is the fact that only a single-pass heattreatment is required to produce a band saw blade with the correct hardness and spring temper for the back of the band and a classically heat treated high speed steel cutting edge. t
Although the electron beam welding that has been employed in the practice of this invention was conducted in a vacuum chamber, it is conceivable that the results achieved might be accomplished without requiring the entire band and wire to be placed in a vacuum chamber, as suggested for instance by the Radtke Patent No. 3,136,- 882. In any event, even though the work was done in a vacuum chamber, it was not in an absolutevacuum, since that condition is extremely difiicult, if not impossible, to achieve. Hence, it would be more accurate to say that the welding is done in a rarefield atmosphere, and where this term is employed in the claims, it is intended to encompass not only the condition which obtains in the vacuum chamber of a Hamilton Standard electron beam welder, but also any atmospheric condition amendable to electron beam welding.
From the foregoing description taken with the accompartying drawings, it will be apparent to those skilled in this art that the present invention represents a major break through in the production of band saw blades; and it should be understood that while a specific embodiment of the invention has been described, such changes in the precise embodiment of the hereindisclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claims.
What is claimed as our invention is:
1. The method of making a band saw blade wherein (l) a wire of high speed cutting tool steel is welded directly to one edge of a flexible alloy steel band of substantially uniform width and thickness to form a bimetal band, and
(2) after straightening and annealing, the resulting bimetal band has teeth of the desired size and shape formed in the edge thereof at which the tool steel wire is located to form a saw blade in which only the tips of the teeth are formed of the tool steel, said method being characterized by:
A. the use of an electron beam to weld the high speed steel wire to the edge of the band; and
B. simultaneously developing in the tool steel tooth tips the metallurgical characteristics of classically heat treated high speed steel along with maximum hardness, and bringing the remainder of the saw blade to a hardness on the order of 44-45 Rockwell C by (l passing the saw blade lengthwise once through the mufile of a heat treating furnace in which the final mufile temperature is maintained at a substantially constant level and at a selected value in the range of 2150-2275 F.; and (2) thereafter tempering the saw blade.
'2. The method of claim 1, further characterized by the fact that the final mutfle temperature is 2225 F. and the tempering is done at 1050 F.
3. The method of claim 1. further characterized by the fact that the mfile is approximately twelve feet in length and the movement of the saw blade through the mufile is at a rate of two and one-half to six feet per minute.
4. The method of claim 3, further characterized by the fact that the tempering is done by twice subjecting the saw blade for a period of two hours to a temperature of 1050 F.

Estero residents opposed to I-75 drainage pipe plan
The combined power of Estero citizens could come crashing down on the South Florida Water Management District.
The Estero Council of Community Leaders is expected to take sides Friday on a district decision to put drainage pipes under Interstate 75.
Citizens in The Brooks subdivision are against the proposal because they fear the culverts will cause flooding in their community. The culverts would drain water from property east of I-75, owned by AgriPartners, residents fear. The excess water would flow right through The Brooks in Halfway Creek, which is not designed to handle such quantities, critics say.
The district is requiring the Florida Department of Transportation to include the culverts in its permit for I-75 widening. The culverts will alleviate flooding in Bonita Springs by allowing water to flow west, instead of being damned by the interstate and forced south, district officials have said. The district must issue the permit before FDOT can begin construction on the section of the interstate, which is in South Lee County.
The Conservancy of Southwest Florida has already threatened to take legal action, blocking the permits, if the district does not back off its demand for the culverts. That action could delay the construction of the south Lee County section of I-75.
"If the district continues to insist on the culverts without an analysis, then that would prompt action that would delay the I-75 widening," said Jennifer Hecker, natural resource policy manager for the conservancy. "We're doing everything in our power to avert that and reach a resolution in a timely manner."
The conservancy is concerned with the environmental aspects of putting untreated water down the creek and eventually into the Estero River and Estero Bay. The group wants proof that the culverts are needed before taxpayer money is spent installing them, Hecker said.
The Estero Council will adopt a position on the matter and then take action, said Don Eslick, chairman of the ECCL, a collection of volunteer community leaders representing several neighborhoods in Estero.
"This is an opportunity for everybody in the community to learn about it and support what's been going on on our behalf," Eslick said.
Once the council decides to take action, community members will get the charge to begin calling and writing county and district leaders. Community leaders will also state their position during public comment periods at county and district board meetings.

As we write this update, we cannot help but to be overwhelmed with gratitude at your support of the technology and science educational opportunities being provided to the students in Haiti. One piece of our exciting news is that on this #GivingTuesday, Microsoft YouthSpark is supporting our project with 100% Matching funds starting at noon today! Microsoft has $250,000 in matching funds, but shared among projects supporting children, it will go quickly. What an awesome opportunity to double our impact at our schools in Haiti!
Since our last update, staff and students at James Stine College have formed a committee of five to establish further opportunities for educational collaboratives with students in the US. We look forward to updating you on the educational connections that result!
Stateside, the Palmyra Haiti Technology Club has been busy organizing a load of soccer shirts donated by the CPYSC Soccer Club to be sent to Haiti. (The shirts are sure to be appreciated among all of the Haitian youth soccer fans!) Palmyra's Haiti Technology Club has also been busy arranging opportunities at local school and community events to raise awareness of the beauty of the Haitian people and their educational successes and challenges.
In our trips to Haiti, we have seen first hand so many young people that have the desire, dedication and drive to make the most of their educational opportunities; so much so that classrooms have filled on Saturdays for study sessions and peer teaching. The students at James Stine College and the Good Samaritan School are deserving examples of Microsoft YouthSpark's hope to close the divide between young people who have access, skills and opportunities to be successful and those who do not. Thank you for partnering with us close the divide for these deserving students!
Today's noon 100% Match (up to $1,000 per donor) through the vision and generosity of Microsoft YouthSpark will go quickly! If you are interested in this unique opportunity to double your impact, please give your gift as close to noon as possible! (Donations may be designated as a 'Gift' or 'In-Honor of' for Christmas Giving) We and the students of the Good Samaritan and James Stine College thank you for your support!
Dear Supporters,
It is hard to believe that another school year is in full swing here in the United States. In Haiti however, the school year has just recently begun.
On the Palmyra side of our project, one activity in the works is a spring trip to Washington, DC to visit the Haitian embassy and GlobalGiving. This visit will give our Palmyra students the experience of networking with government liaisons and a large-scale nonprofit organization.
On the Haiti side, this school year is one of exciting possibilities thanks to a productive 2012/2013 school year. Les Bons Smaritains is admitting the largest kindergarten class in their history. With the use of schools' technology, these 101 kindergarteners will have amazing opportunities for learning and global collaboration in the near future.
Thanks to Intel's IESC team visit last spring (GG Update # 21) the technology capabilities at our schools in St. Marc continue to grow. Consistent, reliable electricity and Internet connections challenge our project from time to time, but your continued support continues to help us make improvements to make our connectivity increasingly consistent.
An opportunity to stretch your contribution dollars is just around the corner. Please mark the date of Wednesday, October 23rd as the next GlobalGiving matching day. Starting at 9am (eastern time) all donations given that day will be matched by 30%. Please consider a contribution that morning.
Thanks for your continued support.
Dear Supporters, Our project continues to be blessed with good fortune thanks to your continued support. One such example was a spring visit by the Intel Education Service Corps (IESC). Intel Corporation selects high achieving employees to be part of this elite volunteer service corps and we would agree that they are the best of the best. To find out more about IESC, please check the link at the conclusion of this update. In preparation for IESC's visit to Haiti, students from our Palmyra-Haiti Technology Project conducted a Skype interview of one of the IESC team members. Our Palmyra students had many good questions and IESC provided insightful answers and further inspired our students to continue their own service work to Haiti. Once on the ground in Haiti, the IESC worked at an intense pace. In the span of a week, they worked diligently to make significant improvements on the technology infrastructure of our schools and to conduct extensive student and teacher technology trainings. Here is a brief summary of some of what the Intel crew accomplished: • Serviced 50 of our laptops • Installed 23 software applications • Created lab number & inventory system • Trained librarian on Excel & created log file to manage books inventory • Conducted over 15 hours of training with 43 teachers (PC Basic, Introduction to Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Educational Software) • Developed Math based lesson plan & held first 2 math classes in computer lab • Inspired students and educators alike in Palmyra and Haiti! One of the highlights of the week was a combined Skype session between the students at the Palmyra Middle School and the students, staff and IESC crew at James Stine College in St. Marc. Students on both sides of the Skype session had prepared questions for each other and the IESC team. It was inspirational and a foreshadowing of more online collaborations to come in the future. The IESC team also provided us with a report of strengths and needs of the technology infrastructure at our schools. As in most developing countries, consistent and reliable Internet connectivity can be challenging and that continues to be an ongoing need. Your continued support helps maximize the yield of the fruits that were produced from the IESC's amazing efforts. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of many! You can help us by sharing this update with others and by "liking" our Facebook project page at the link below this update. Thanks for your continued support and special heartfelt thanks to Intel!

Ashley Tisdale in J Brand
My favourite celeb to blog, Ashley Tisdale, was seen leaving her home in Toluca Lake, California to make her way to the 2010 CBS Summer TCA Panel for Hellcats at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California. Ashley was wearing two of her favourite brands, J Brand and Christian Louboutin. She opted for J Brand's 912 pencil leg jeans in Indio which she paired with Christian Louboutin Esoteri ankle booties, an Enza Costa Tunic Layer Tank and a necklace with her name on (Aly Michalka has one too in the bottom right picture). I have the Esoteri booties in all black and I love them! They remind me of a tuxedo!
I think Ashley looks really pretty in this outfit, it's definitely one of my favourites she has worn. It's classy with the blazer and heels but the jeans being worn a bit loose give it that casual feel so they balance each other out. Her make up is also really nice! I'm glad Ashley is back in LA, I hope we see more candids of her soon! You can buy lots of J Brand jeans at Singer22 and Boutique To You.
Rachel Bilson in Paige Premium
Rachel Bilson was seen by the paparazzi arriving at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles, California. I love this outfit on her! It's gorgeous! She was wearing a pair of Paige Premium Jimmy Jimmy skinny jeans in Tropics with Christian Louboutin Bianca heels, a white tee and sunglasses. This outfit is definitely my kind of style!
Rachel has also been spotted in these jeans before while running some errands. I think Paige Premium jeans are actually her favourite brand, she seems to live in Paige jeans and shorts and she wears them so well! It's always nice to see a celeb sticking to a brand they love when they have the option to try any brand they want. Buy these jeans at Paige Premium for $199.

Single Finest Known 1938-D Oregon Trail Memorial, MS69 PCGS1938-D 50C Oregon MS69 PCGS. Technical perfection is assumed at this grade level. In fact, any grade from MS67 on up should exhibit similarly preserved surfaces. What sets this piece apart are primarily two things. First is the coin's aesthetic qualities. While one would expect any coin graded MS69 to have strong visual appeal, this coin REALLY has a strong dose of it. It won't matter if a collector specializes in copper, currency, or commemoratives, this coin has an immediate and lasting effect on the viewer. While each side has a brilliant center, the obverse is surrounded by especially lovely pastel toning, and the reverse is mostly golden-brown around the margins. Thick mint frost overlays over each side and gives the pale toning a vibrancy and life missing on lesser graded coins. Second is the amazingly well executed strike on all of the intricate details of the Frasers' complex design. This is seen in all areas, the full definition on the head and legs of the oxen being a prime example. Truly a magnificent coin, and the single finest known example of this immensely popular Memorial issue. Population: 1 in 69, 0 finer (3/04).
