How many tables should you put in a room? That depends on what kind of tables they are and how many people you need to seat. It doesn't matter if you are replacing one item or you are outfitting a multi-story building. Our tables are sturdy, dependable and attractive, so you know you are making the right choice when you purchase from Hertz Furniture.
What kind of table is right for my school?
Schools require many different kinds of tables. Elementary schools and preschools need sturdy activity tables so little ones can learn and play comfortably. We have a huge selection of classroom tables in various sizes, heights and shapes. They come from experienced children's furniture manufacturers including Mahar and Academia. To add some fun and flair to a learning space, try Educational Edge school tables with colored edge banding in a selection of vibrant hues.
Which tables are good for art?
To keep the creative juices flowing in the art studio, you need proper art tables and drafting tables. The right equipment helps students learn correct techniques as they are developing their skills. Our drafting tables are perfect for aspiring artists who are learning how to create drawings that are to scale, or even for professionals in an architecture firm.
Where can I find good lab tables?
When young scientists are first starting to experiment, it is important to make sure that they are conducting themselves in a safe and proper manner. While regular materials might be strong enough to support the equipment that is needed for experimentation, normal tabletops are not built to withstand harsh chemicals and materials. Lab tables from National Public Seating and Diversified Woodcrafts come in a selection of surface materials. Their special chemical-resistant or epoxy-resin tops are designed specifically for laboratory applications.
What kind of tables should I put in the cafeteria?
Make sure your students have plenty of places to sit and eat their meals in the lunchroom with our sturdy and comfortable cafeteria tables. Lunchroom tables come with a number of seating options including benches, stools or chairs. They lock in a partially-folded position for easy cleaning, and have wheels which make them easy to transport when they are fully folded.
Where should you put computers in a school?
Computer tables will come in handy in a school computer lab or company training room. They will even fit well on the side of a classroom or in a library. Unlike regular tables, computer tables come with extra features that are designed for comfortable desktop use. Many models have built in CPU holders and keyboard trays. Wire-management grommets in the work surface facilitate easy routing to reduce unnecessary clutter. The number of tables you should put in your room depends on how big the room is an how many students will be using it at one time.
What kind of table should I get for my office?
While a personal workspace usually has an office desk, other shared areas of a company require various table arrangements. For a professional boardroom or meeting space, try one of our sleek conference tables. Many come from office furniture collections so they can be coordinated with other items in the workspace. Solid woods, laminates and veneers will enrich the atmosphere of your company and project a dependable professional image.
When you are hosting conferences, training sessions or professional days, you need some sturdy seminar tables so all participants can stay comfortable. Training tables take up less space than regular tables because they are designed for people to be seated on one side, facing the front of the room. Many models have wire-management grommets so laptops, tablets and other electronics can easily be plugged in without getting in the way. Flip-top tables are super convenient because training tables are only used occasionally, and this design saves space in storage by facilitating compact nesting.
What is the most versatile table?
Folding tables will come in handy virtually anywhere. They can be used as banquet tables for formal occasions in a social hall, or for special events in the gymnasium. We have rectangular and round folding tables in a selection of sizes so you can find what fits in your space. They are available in various surface materials.
No matter what style of decor you have in your house of worship or school, Hertz Furniture has the tables you need to create a functional space. Our attractive budget-friendly selection can outfit any room you need to fill in style. If you are overwhelmed by all of the great choices and need help narrowing down your selection, contact the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice.

Tables are one of the fundamental units of office furniture. Round tables, adjustable height tables, foldable tables, and portable folding tables are just a few examples of the many varieties of tables you could use for your office.
How to select the right table? Well, start by deciding what your needs are. Will this table be for a school, institution, or small office? Round tables help people interact with one another while rectangular tables provide more privacy. Adjustable height tables are ideal for classrooms where different age children will need to sue the table. Foldable tables and Portable Folding Tables give you the added flexibility of tables that are easy to move and store.

Beautiful pendant, the attention to details is amazing and it easy to install.
I like the yellow/gold color of the glow, the materials are nice and well put together. Works well in our house that is a mix of classic pieces and modern ones. By:Matteo M. , Homeowner (Menlo Park CA)
lavish look
great looking pendant that gives a nice luxury feel in a room. By:Francis T. , Designer (New Yoek City)
Excellent light fixture...
This light was very easy to install and adjust to the desired height. The clear shade projects a very nice diffuse light and presents a very interesting prismatic appearance when turned on. The factory supplied bulb emits a low audible buzz but after replacing the bulb with a smaller GE globe bulb, the buzz is gone. the escutcheon is rather large and easily covered the excess wiring after adjustment. By:Ryan , Architect (Pittsburgh)
love the product
This item is clean, sleek, elegant and the gold interior is so reflective it can light up a much larger space than you would think 100w normally would.The reflective gold interior also make a beautiful golden zig zag ring of light on the ceiling. By:Theresa , Homeowner (ottawa)

As the Fort Hood community deals with the horror of today's mass murder at the Texas base, details are beginning to emerge about the alleged killer, Army Major Nidal M. Hasan.
A psychiatrist assigned to the Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood, Hasan had been assigned to the post since 2007, when he completed training at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.
In fact, all of Hasan's medical training was provided by the U.S. military. According to a provider database maintained by the state of Virginia (where he was licensed), Hasan earned his medical degree from the F. Edward Hebert School of Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS). Located in Bethesda, Maryland, the university operates the only medical school in the U.S. military.
After earning his M.D. degree, Hasan moved on to Walter Reed for a four-year residency in psychiatry. The Virginia medical database also indicates that Hasan completed a fellowship in Disaster and Preventive Psychiatry at Walter Reed earlier this year.
According to his professional profile, listed on the website, Hasan saw patients at Fort Hood five days a week, and spent "90% of his time" at the installation. The profile also reported that Hasan had been in clinical practice for "less than a year" at the time the website was updated last month.
There were no reports of past disciplinary action against Hasan, according to the database. He was licensed to practice medicine in Virginia 2005 and his license was up for renewal next year.
However, sources tell the Associated Press that Hasan received a poor performance evaluation during his time at Walter Reed. Despite that, he completed his residency on schedule, was transferred to Fort Hood, and promoted to Major in May of this year.
Various media outlets report that Hasan was "upset" about his deployment to Iraq, scheduled for later this month.
Using two handguns, Hasan opened fire around 1:30 p.m. today, targeting soldiers at a readiness center on the western side of the sprawling base. A Fort Hood spokesman said soldiers "cycle through" the facility as they prepare to deploy. It's unclear if Hasan was participating in pre-deployment processing when he opened fire, killing 12 soldiers and civilians before being shot by a security guard.
Two other soldiers were taken into custody shortly after the shooting but were later released, according to Republican Congressman John Carter, whose Texas district includes Fort Hood.
Some reports suggested the Hasan was a convert to Islam, but that was not immediately confirmed. Hasan was a U.S. citizen. Students at the USUHS are required to be citizens before graduation, so they can be commissioned as military officers.
UPDATE: 11:00 p.m. EST. The commanding general at Fort Hood now says that Hasan did not die in the shootout. Though he was hit multiple times, the gunman somehow survied and is hospitalized in stable condition. Looks like death row at Leavenworth will be getting a new senior ranking officer in the near future. On a happier note, the civilian security guard who first engaged Hasan also survived. That lady deserves a medal, a pay raise, or both.
We've also noted that the post-shooting spin has already begun, with various "experts" offering possible explanations for Hasan's murderous rampage. At least one pundit suggests the shooter was feeling the effects of "second-hand PTSD," caused by being around those who experience the condition first-hand. And predictably enough, a member of Hasan's family claims the Major experienced "anti-Muslim" discrimination in the Army. But apparently, the discrimination wasn't enough to deny him a decade of taxpayer-funded education and a commission as an Army officer--and not to mention his recent promotion to field-grade rank.

The Isotopes' large and lovable alien dispatched Ike the Spike of State College in the finals to earn the much-coveted title of Best Mascot in Minor League Baseball, securing nearly 60 percent of the vote in the last round.
"It's a tremendous honor," said an elated Orbit, with a seemingly permanent smile running across his furry orange face. "There were a lot of great mascots taking part in the competition, and to come out on top is just an unbelievable thrill. I'd like to thank each of my mascot brethren for a great competition. It really was great to compete alongside 63 other terrific mascots that do such a great job of supporting their teams."
Orbit's path through the West bracket was no walk in the park as he took on Homer (Billings), Cosmo (Las Vegas), Thunder (Lake Elsinore Storm) and Spike (Round Rock) before facing scrappy Midwest champion Snappy D. Turtle (Beloit) in the semis. Evidenced by this recent promotional video (below), Orbit enjoyed an outpouring of support from Isotopes players and fans alike.
"I just have a lot of passionate fans, and once we got the word out about the competition, they did an unbelievable job of voting. I really owe it all to them," Orbit said.
How does he plan on celebrating?
"Since this honor is entirely due to the fans, I plan on sharing it with them at an Isotopes game," he said. "My goal is to thank each and every person who voted for me by giving them a big hug. Oh, and a celebratory pizza might be in the works as well!"
State College Spikes ran an impressive campaign from the get-go, releasing a flurry of campaign videos and garnering a mayoral endorsement to help propel their short-season candidate on an unlikely run through a difficult East bracket and past South champ Phinley of Clearwater in the semifinals.
"We want to thank all of our amazing fans for making this run possible," said an appreciative Ike. "They are truly the best fans in all of Minor League Baseball!" Ike exclaimed. "Their support and compassion carried me into the championship. But for the record, I guarantee the win for 2013!"

More:FEMA Hurricane Preparedness | August 23 Travel Warning -- The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands
U.S. citizens traveling to storm-prone regions during hurricane and typhoon season should carefully consider the potential dangers and inconveniences associated with their travel before finalizing plans. Even inland areas far from the coastline can experience destructive winds, tornadoes, and floods from tropical storms, hurricanes and typhoons. Those who choose to travel should devise an emergency plan in advance of their departure. Prior to leaving the United States, enroll your trip on the State Department's travel enrollment website or at the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
For U.S. citizens overseas, in the event of a tropical storm, hurricane or typhoon, the U.S. Embassy will send out a warden message and will monitor the storm's track, issuing updated messages as information becomes available. The Department of State may also issue Travel Alerts or Travel Warnings to apprise the traveling public of the situation.
Please also take this time to check your travel documents and those of your family members to assure that all U.S. passports are still valid and that any non-U.S. citizen family members have valid U.S. visas. You may need to travel to the United States on short notice and would not want to be stuck without valid travel documents.
For situations involving an injury to, or the death of, an American citizen overseas, contact the OCS Call Center at 1-800-407-4747 (from overseas: 202-501-4444).

For instance, when I audition my song, the audience is all standing in the no_animation position, the camera is in an isometric view, there is no film-grain on the video, and i can't seem to find the switch so that this doesn't happen. About 2 measures in, I finally cut to all my animations and camera calls, but I can't seem to get it to start with camera calls.

Extracted from the interview section of Raymond Pettibon published by Phaidon Press Limited.
RAYMOND PETTIBON IS ONE OF contemporary art's most enigmatic figures. Unlike most L.A. artists of his generation, he doesn't teach at one of the renowned local art schools. He very rarely makes the scene at gallery and museum openings, and the few public appearances by this ultraprivate, attention-phobic artist tend to be awkward and elusive affairs. He conforms neither to his nonart world image as a punk rocker gone legit, nor to the conventional image of a successful, hip, fashionably groomed and garbed artist. While he doesn't shy away from interviews, he is a defiantly impersonal if unpretentious subject who wants to communicate through his poetic, more-than-generous art, and leave his interests du jour to the imagination.
Arbiters of contemporary art are crazy about making distinctions between high art (essentially, art with a graduate degree) and low art made in a so-called primitive if creative way -- from "outsiders" like the currently fashionable janitor/painter Henry Darger, to basically any artist who gains recognition without relying heavily on the gallery system to get there. Pettibon is a high artist, for sure, but one whose work has reached an unusually, even spectacularly broad audience. Loved internationally by people who know his work only from the multitude of CD covers it adorns and the books in which it has been collected, as well as by Artforum subscribing gallery hoppers in the know, he may just be the most successful living serious artist -- a bona fide crossover hit who has achieved an almost Norman Rockwelllike popularity without either licensing his signature style à la Keith Haring, or becoming a media-friendlier shadow of himself à la William Wegman.
For the record, the 43-year-old Pettibon has lived in Hermosa Beach since he was a kid. His nondescript, smallish house, which he shares with his parents, sits on a difficult-to-locate street sniffing distance from the ocean. The living and dining rooms double as his studio, and the tables and even floors are piled with works in progress, many haphazardly crisscrossed with the paw prints of his perennially barking dogs. The following interview, most of which will appear this month in the book Raymond Pettibon(Phaidon Press), was conducted in his home late last year, as the artist was preparing for his most recent solo exhibition at his Los Angeles gallery, Regen Projects.
Untitled (The Family Dog) 1990 |
DENNIS COOPER:You were born in Arizona, right?
RAYMOND PETTIBON: Yeah. Then we moved out here when I was pretty young. I don't have big memories of the time before that.
What were you like as a kid?
[long pause] I was a kid. I did things that a kid liked to do. Do you think it's interesting to know what artists were like as kids?
Not really. But people usually want to begin there, or at least cross-reference artists' childhoods. They like to trace things back to a pre-sophisticated state, I guess to see if they can identify with, say, you, or to see how they might have turned out differently if they'd behaved differently in childhood. You know, they want to know why they became themselves and not you.
Not an artist.
Not an artist or, if they're artists, not exactly the artist you are.
I can't tell you why I started to draw and write or why I liked to do that. I don't think there's an answer to that question back there. I just did what I liked to do, and I ended up doing what I do now for some reason.
I'm curious about your relationship to literature. Since language and visual imagery seem equally important in your work, I'm wondering if one interest preceded the other.
Literature was originally and probably still is just as important to me as art.
Do you read a lot of fiction and poetry?
Mostly fiction, some poetry. But I haven't read much poetry in the last 10 years.
Did you ever want to be a writer in the traditional sense?
I was never really much of a writer. The first things I ever wrote to any extent were related to my artwork, and I still don't write narrative fiction, per se. My longer, non-art pieces are usually screenplays related to my videos.
Do you think of your work as a response to literature?
In the beginning, yeah, it was. To trace it back distinctly, I guess my first artworks were cartoons, and were a response to cartoons, also. It's kind of a subtle line between that and what I do today, but, in another way, it's quite a dramatic line to have crossed. From a distance, the average work of mine might resemble a cartoon. But there was a specific point where I think I crossed over into something else.
Were the associations you made between language and imagery always poetic, even when you were making more traditional kinds of cartoons?
No. The ideas always came out of reading, and they were kind of between the lines, or suggested. It's kind of like swimming in words and letters. I place myself in this state of consciousness where I'm receptive to associations and stuff. Rather than quoting, as I have in the past 10 years, they originally were more like responses than quotations. But they always had to do with reading things from the world at large -- media, television, music, books -- rather than being personal or anecdotal.

Gain the power and stamina of the ninja!
Just as the ninja were legendary warriors, this mystical enhancement cage will make you a legendary lover!
• Special four ring design for maximum effect
• Three rings function like a super-charged penis ring
• Limiting blood flow boosts the size of your shaft
• Fourth ring functions as a ball strap
• Helps delay ejaculation for longer-lasting sex
• Cage covered with diamond ticklers for vaginal stimulation
• Measures 2.5 inches wide and 4.25 inches long
• Made from stretchy and flexible TPR
Just slip this penis enhancer cage on your pole to gain ninja-like stamina and skills! The rings in the cage function just like penis rings – restricting blood flow from your shaft. By keeping blood in the penis for longer than usual, the enhancer cage increases your girth and length. And with multiple rings instead of one, the cage is much more effective than your typical ring.
You can use the fourth ring as an additional penis ring, but it's much more effective if you turn it into a ball strap. Simply pop your balls through the ring so it restricts circulation. This makes it harder than usual for you to orgasm, delaying ejaculation and leading to longer-lasting sex.
As an added bonus, the rings and connectors are covered with soft, diamond-shaped ticklers that rub her clit with every more – providing additional stimulation to help her come faster and harder.
The enhancement cage measures 2.5 inches across at its widest point and 4.25 inches long. The penis enhancer is made from TPR, making it very flexible and stretchy so it fits comfortably.
Adam & Eve recommends the Ninja 4-Ring Enhancement Cage for men interested in increasing the size of their penis and couples interested in prolonging sex.
The penis enhancer is compatible with Adam & Eve's water-based and silicone-based sex lubes. After you finish wearing the penis cage, wash it thoroughly in warm, soapy water and rinse it clean. Let your penis enhancer dry and then store it with the rest of your sex toys.

Welcome to Operation NICE!
That one minor gesture brightened my day! I started to think, "What a great world this would be if everyone had consideration for others." It's a shame that that's not the case currently. It's obvious that common courtesy is lacking in society today. Just drive down a major highway and you'll see that.
What we all need is a little NICE.
Operation NICE encourages individuals to be proactively NICE. Stop by to read some positive, upbeat news stories (yes, they exist) about nice people. Download some tools (coming soon!) to help you in your quest to communicate the concept of niceness. Share a story or two about how someone made your day.
It is not true that nice guys finish last. Nice guys are winners before the game ever starts.

About Me
Hi there! My name is Melissa Morris Ivone and my goal in life is to be as nice as I can possibly be. Here's a little bit about me. I live in New Jersey and work in Philadelphia as a graphic designer. I love crafting. I'm married to a wonderful (and kooky) man. And if you really want to know more about who I am, you should check out my personal blog or even my sketchbook or my pictures. Thanks for reading my blog!

Hi Melissa,
I found your Melissahead blog through Artsy Fartsy and I just read your latest post about being nice. I had a similar experience at a McDonald's - the employees were so friendly and it seemed like they really were glad to assist me! I go back to that McDonald's as much as possible because their great attitudes truly make a difference! I love the idea for this new blog...I will definitely check back often. Thanks! - July 16, 2008 at 7:52 AM

This is wonderful, Mel! I look forward to using your "nice" tools, and hope your blog inspires others to do as they would have others do unto them! You certainly have inspired me!

Well hi there stranger! ;-) Just found this through feterie's blog. What a great concept!
- September 2, 2008 at 5:22 AM
Hello Melissa
Operation nice is a fantastic and refreshing idea. If only this concept could be embraced into corporate culture... arhh...I dream.
In today's time poor society short cuts are taken. Unfortunately for many their short cut of choice includes being nice.
Much of society also perceives niceness as soft and weak. This is partly due to individual fear and insecurity. For change to begin some one needs to "stand up" for being nice and you have done that, congratulations!
When I appear to be one of the only few at work being nice and I start to doubt "niceness" your site will remind me to "stand up" for being nice.
So, thank you Melissa!

Your blog is so fantastic! There really is nothing nicer than being nice. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment otherwise I may never stumbled across Operation NICE! - September 10, 2008 at 3:00 PM

Thanks for your positive energy Melissa! I found your site on Veer and I had to repost it on my blog! (http://designfix.collarfree.com) It's shocking how an act of kindness is so rare that it actually surprises me. I hope we can change that. :)
- September 12, 2008 at 10:44 AM
Hi there! I was just referred to your site. I love the whole concept! I'm the one that will tell you how great you look or what beautiful eyes you have, just because. I know how great it is to get compliments from people. I also have a habit of making sure managers know when an employee is good to me-whether it be a store or a restaurant. What a great feeling! ;)

Hi Melissa! I just randomly came across your blog from Stleberry...which I found from a comment on The Martha Blog...anyway, so glad I found your blog! I couldn't agree more with you...I consider myself a pretty nice person and am very proud of it!
I'm putting your badge on my blog to spread the Nice! Look forward to reading more from you!

Hi Melissa,
An article about you in today's Sacramento Bee motivated me to respond.
On a daily basis I look for situatiions in which to offer a compliment or praise to a stranger.
Two weeks ago, I complimented an airport bathroom attendant on how clean his station was. His response was a huge smile. He shared that on one had ever praised him nor his work on the job. A human, personal connection occurred at that moment. Wonderful feeling all day that a simple word of praise could have such a powerful effect on a stranger's affect.
I've thought many times of creating a t.v. station, Positive New Network, PNN. We need more positive information to be shared, too much negativity nearly everywhere.
Best to you and yours from a former Jersey City native.

It's ironic that this started your blog, nice idea that it is. As I understand elevator etiquette, the gentleman is supposed to board first. This stems from the days when elevators were not the safest of modes of transport: the gentleman would board as a test of the elevator's safety (if it was empty, at least). Further, it is deferential to enter first, because the last to enter is the first to leave. Which means while the nice gesture was well-intended, it was technically not nice.

If everyone felt just a little bit better about themselves and their fellow man, maybe they wouldn't have to buy "things" to make them feel noticed or worthy.

WOW! MY KIND OF THINKING! I believe - really BELIEVE - that old saying, "If you see a man without a smile, give him YOURS." The power of a GENUINE smile, a kind word, a small goodness is HUGE. I think you ROCK and my friend Laura at My Little Orange Kitchen linked us to you! I hope you won't mind if I mention this on my blog, too!

Hi there
I found your fab blog and fantastic idea through The Toy Society. The funny thing is I was bemoaning the lack of niceness around us and said we should start a Ooo Be Nice campaign, you've already done it. The fab news is unsurprisingly as the bloggy world is full of lovely folks, lots of people have said to me I want to join in too!!!
So, if it's ok with you, I'm going to put a link to you on my blog and start spreading the niceness throughout the UK. Keep up the great work.

I came across your blog through one of my students. I am a teacher at the American School of Doha in Qatar, and I teach a middle school elective called, Be the Change. The basic premise of the class is finding ways to make a difference in the world. One of my passions is random acts of kindness, and I am trying to instill that in my students as well. I gave them an assignment to search the web for sites that relate to our class in some way, and one student responded with Operation NICE! I was thrilled to visit the site and read about someone with a similar desire to make a difference through niceness! Thanks for being a pioneer in this area!!

GLACIER Mount Baker Highway will be closed at least until Friday, Dec. 21, while state Department of Transportation crews remove nearly 100 trees that toppled onto the road because of wet, snowy and windy weather.
The highway is closed from Coal Creek Bridge at mile post 35, just east of Glacier. It has been closed since Wednesday morning.
The closure is affecting Mt. Baker Ski Area, which also has been closed since Wednesday, when so many trees fell that crews couldn't keep up with their removal and prompting DOT to close that portion of the highway out of safety concerns.
"Some of them have just snapped off and fallen because of the weight of the snow," Bronlea Mishler, DOT spokeswoman, said Wednesday.
"They keep coming down," she added. "It's safety. We want to keep drivers safe. We want to keep our crews safe."
About six feet of snow has fallen on the area since Friday, according to Mishler.
The first trees fell Tuesday night. Crews were able to remove those.
But tree after tree began toppling after a windstorm early Wednesday morning combined with more snow and then temperatures warm enough to make the snow sit even heavier on the trees.
DOT crews worked throughout Wednesday to remove the snow-laden trees from the highway. In some cases, the weight of the snow, coupled with the saturated ground, uprooted entire trees, and others snapped and came down across the road.
"It's a road issue. It's not a snow issue," said Gwyn Howat, Mt. Baker operations manager of the reason for the ski area's closure.
Officials hope to reopen the ski area on Friday, with Howat saying that the snow conditions were "fantastic."
"It is special snow right now," Howat said of the "champagne powder" that should be there on Friday when the ski area reopens.
By Friday, snowfall for the ski area could total 100 inches in less than a week, she added.
"It's primo conditions for skiers and snowboarders," Howat said.
But she also cautioned people to be careful because of deep-snow dangers.
On Tuesday morning, a snowboarder visiting from out of state nearly suffocated in deep snow when he fell head-first into a tree well while snowboarding in the back-country just outside the ski area's boundaries, Howat said.
An experienced local resident who also knew how to do deep-snow rescues was passing and saw a portion of the base of the snowboard and dug 6 feet down to extricate the snowboarder, who later said that he couldnt pull himself out.
Howat said people should go online to deepsnowsafety.org for tips on staying safe.
