Vt. advances ban on drivers phoningBy Neal P. Goswami
VERMONT PRESS BUREAU | February 01,2014MONTPELIER The House Judiciary Committee advanced legislation Friday banning the use of cellphones and other handheld devices while driving.
The committee approved the bill unanimously after hearing from law enforcement officers supporting a ban. The committee has advanced similar bills at least twice before, but they fizzled out without becoming law. The state already prohibits texting by drivers.
Under the bill, using a phone or other device while behind the wheel would be allowed only with the use of a hands-free feature. Twelve states already have such laws.
A first offense would carry a fine of $100 to $200. A second and all subsequent offenses within a two-year period would carry a fine of $250 to $500.
Scott Tucker, a captain with the Rutland City Police Department and a representative of the Vermont Police Association, said law enforcement officers support the bill and believe that phone calls should be banned.
In general, I would say that law enforcement can support this bill, he said. This is really nothing more than an extension, I think, and a normal, healthy extension, I think.
Still, Tucker said enforcement can be difficult so the legislation would be primarily an awareness bill.
Tucker, along with Montpelier Police Chief Anthony Facos, asked lawmakers to include an exemption in the bill for law enforcement officers who need to use their phones while driving in the course of their official duties.
Chris Maley, president of the Vermont Association for Justice, also urged lawmakers to ban cellphone use while driving. He said the legislation will help alter behavior behind the wheel.
According to Maley, who speaks at schools about the issue, teenagers are learning bad habits from their parents who answer emails and text while driving. However, teens are using cellphones while driving in worse ways, he said.
They get the selfies going while theyre driving, Maley said. They do all this stuff thats just bizarre and nuts.
Public Safety Commissioner Keith Flynn said his department has not taken a stance on the issue, but he noted Gov. Peter Shumlins opposition to a ban. Flynn said a study conducted in California after it passed a cellphone ban in 2008 showed no notable change in crashes.
Committee Chairman William Lippert, a Hinesburg Democrat, said the panel is aware of Shumlins position but believes the bill will enhance highway safety.
Lippert said lawmakers wont be able to eliminate all distractions through legislation but that ending cellphone use while driving is an appropriate place to start and is achievable.
Were not going to achieve perfection here. I dont want us to wait until we have every possible permutation worked out, he said. This needs to be law.
The bills prospects are unclear, given its past failures. Lippert said the committee will continue advancing the ban until it becomes law.
Even if it stops, were going to keep making the statement that it needs to happen, he said.
Shumlin spokeswoman Susan Allen declined to say if he would veto the bill if it reached his desk.
As you know, the governor never comments on what ifs, she said. He hopes people refrain from using their handheld cellphones for calls while driving. Thats just good common sense, something the governor doesnt think you can legislate. He has heard from both sides in the debate and is willing to look at the data as this discussion moves forward.

14 Claims.
This invention relates to box making machinery and particularly to machinery for folding and forming boxes or baskets from blanks of flexible, fibrous, sheet material such, for instance, as the so-called berry or fruit boxes or baskets of a size holding approximately one quart.
This invention is particularly directed to the portions of the machine which perform the folding and clamping operations upon a blank of material which has been previously cut to shape,
scored and had adhesive applied thereto.
It is therefore the general object of the present invention to provide novel and improved plunger and die mechanism for box making ma- 5 chinery.
An important object of the present invention consists in the provision of plunger and die mechanism for box making machines, equipped with means to fold inwardly the upper edges of all four sides of a partially formed blank so as to provide a reinforcement or cuff about the upper edge of the box, which is used without a cover.
Another important feature of the invention resides in the construction of the plunger mechanism for cooperation with the die for forming a blank into a box and particularly to the construction of the plunger body which provides improved means for mounting the folders, a plurality of which is carried by each side thereof.
A further feature of the invention resides in the novel construction and arrangement of the die mechanism whereby movement is imparted to one wall thereof by power mechanism to give a final pressure to set the shape of the box and to properly adhere the Wings which are folded over the ends of the box from the two sides and at the same time and from the same operating means to move both of the laterally disposed sides of the die to give a final pressure to the cuff flaps so that they are properly adhered to their basket walls.
A still further feature of the invention resides in the novel manner of mounting the plunger body on the plunger rod and in the construction of both of these parts.
Other and further features and objects of the invention will be more apparent to those skilled in the art upon a consideration of the accompanying drawings and following specification wherein is disclosed a single exemplary embodiment of the invention with the understanding, however, that various changes, additions and subtractions may be made thereto such as fall within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In said drawings:

Figure 2 is a vertical section taken on line 5 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an elevation, on an enlarged scale, of the plunger and die, with one side of the die removed;
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure'3 but taken 19 at right angles thereto;
Figure 5 is a horizontal section on line 5-5 of Figure 4;
Figure 6 is a horizontal section on line 66 of Figure l;
Figure '7 is a central vertical section through the plunger taken on line 'll of Figure 3;
Figure 8 is a perspective view of the lower portion of a folder;
Figure 9 is a fragmentary plan view of the die 20 showing the parts thereof in their separated positions; and
Figure 10 is a perspective view of a berry box of the type adapted to be formed on the present machine.
In my previous Patent No. 1,814,043, granted July 14, 1931 for Machine for making boxes, I have shown a complete machine for removing previously cut box blanks from a pile, feeding them one at a time to creasing or scoring mechanism, then to adhesive applying means, and finally to a position on a die Where they are folded by plunger mechanism which is equipped with pivoted folders for turning in flaps on two ends on the box blank so that they are positioned in the path of the plunger for final folding.
In my Patent No. 1,935,032, granted November 14, 1933 for Box machine, I have shown die and plunger mechanism, with particular improvements in the folding means whereby the pivoted folders are eliminated and their places taken by sliding folders moving in advance of and with the plunger to engage the upper edges of flaps on two ends of the box blank and fold them into the path of the plunger.
In these and other patents granted to me and to others, folding of flaps upon the upper edges of the box has been limited to two oppositely disposed ends of the box. In accordance with the 0 present invention, equipment is provided which 5 simultaneously folds the flaps upon four sides of the box, thus producing in a single stroke of the plunger a completed box having a reinforcing band or cuff around all of its upper edges. 5 This is a distinct improvement over prior devices 5 sponding walls.
for when a fully reinforced box was required, they only provided it by the previous folding and gluing of two of the cuff flaps before the feeding of the blank to the plunger mechanism.
Not only does the present machine fold all four cuff flaps in one operation, but it provides a final forming and gluing pressure to all of these flaps as well as to the wings which secure the sides and ends of the box together.
All of the above is accomplished by an extremely simple construction of both the plunger and die mechanism and in which at least three sides of the die are simultaneously moved through the action of a single power driven slide member.
For a better understanding of the invention reference should now be had to the accompanying drawings in which the same reference numerals are applied to the same parts throughout all the figures.
Figure of the drawings shows, in perspective, the type of box intended to be manufactured on the machine of the present invention. It is a so-called fruit or berry box or basket of open top type having a rectangular and preferably square bottom l2 and four flaring walls l3, I3, [4, M. The walls i3, i3 which may be called the sides of the box are integral extensions of the bottom, folded upwardly therefrom slightly less than 90 to provide the flare and are of single thickness except for the upper edges which are each reinforced by an inturned flap i5 folded over to an angle of 180 and secured down against the inner face of the side by suitable adhesive. The ends I4, It not only comprise portions integral with the bottom and similar to the sides but have overlapped on the outer faces thereof the wings l6, it formed as extensions of the side walls i3, i3 and bent around the corners of the box and secured down by adhesive. These wings IS, IS are each provided with a flap-like portion ll, H which is folded over the upper edge of their end M and secured by adhesive against the inner face thereof.
In the operation of the machine, previously cut and scored blanks are fed, by suitable apparatus such as that shown in one of my previously mentioned patents, through adhesive applying mechanism and are finally positioned one at a. time on top of the die mechanism. The plunger then descends, forces the flat blank down into the die and forms it into the shape of the finished box. In doing so the sides and ends are automatically turned up around the bottom by engagement with the upper edges of the die parts and the wings turned into position over the ends. All of this original forming is caused by a separate lower member on the plunger which is only a thin plate of substantially the shape of the bottom of the box. The plunger proper then moves downwardly and folders carried thereby and projecting below the lower surface thereof engage the now upstanding flaps I5, I5, l'l, H and turn them inwardly until they are in the path of the main body of the plunger. These folders are stopped then in their downward movement by engagement with the die, but movement of the plunger continues, the under-surface thereof engaging the partially inturned flaps and carrying them downward and outward against the inner faces of their corre- When the plunger has reached the limit of its downward movement, movable walls of the die are forced inwardly to firmly press the material of the box into its final shape and to ensure close adherence of the parts, to which vadhesive has been applied, against their cooperating parts. This pressure is essential to ensure adequate sticking of the adhesive so that the box can be quickly removed from the die and plunger and a subsequent and similar operation performed on another blank.
The feeding, creasing and adhesive applying may be performed by any suitable mechanism such, for instance, as that shown in my previously mentioned Patent No. 1,814,043. The present invention contemplates mainly improvements in the die and plunger mechanism of that and other patents whereby flaps to reinforce all four upper edges of the box are turned in and glued in a single operation and all four sides of the box are pressed. Only so much of the cooperating machine as is necessary for the understanding of the operation of the plunger and die has been shown for the sake of simplicity.
Figure 1 shows the machine in plan with the plunger mechanism removed so that the die parts can be more readily observed. The machine is built on a fiat bed plate mounted on suitable standards and beneath which are carried the various power shafts and the like for applying power and movement to the different parts. Mounted on the bed are four die parts or sides 2!, 22, 23 and 24, all surrounding the movable bottom plate 25 of the die which is mounted on rods 26 connected to cross head 2? driven by a suitable mechanism, not shown, in timed relationship to movement of other parts of the machine as will be later described. The die side 2| is stationary and is permanently secured to bed 20 as seen in Figure 2 and has secured in alignment with its upper face the extension 29 to provide a fiat surface on which to support a portion of the blank when it is first fed to the die. The opposite die member 22, of similar shape, is slidably mounted on the bed plate and positioned by bolts 30 secured to the bed plate and fitting through elongated slots in extension 3! so that this side can be moved toward and from the side 2 i.
A slide 32 is adapted for movement along the upper surface of bed plate 20 and is guided by tracks 33. This slide is attached by means of plate 34 to the die side 22 which not only provides the means for operating the die side from the slide but the flat surface corresponding to part 29 for the reception of box blanks. Movement is imparted to slide 32 by means of a pair of toggles 35 each consisting of two links 33 and 3'! pivoted to each other and with the link 36 pivoted at 38 to an abutment 35 integral with or secured to the bed plate. Each link 3'? is pivoted at 48 to a link ll pivoted at 42 to the bed of the machine. The pivot 59 also attaches link 3'! to the head 43 of a rod 44 which is adjustably cured in the slide 32 by the mechanism shown.
The link 3? of each toggle is directly positioned above a cam 45 mounted on shaft 46 driven by sprocket and chain 17 from a suitable power shaft beneath the machine. It will be seen that when the lobe of the cam engages beneath link 3? that the toggle will be straightened from the position shown in Figure 2 and the slide and its attached die part will be moved to the right as shown in that figure. The final position of the die part is determined by the adjustment of the mechanism connecting the rods 44 to the slide.
Return movement of the slide upon recession of the cam lobes is effected by means of coil springs 50 surrounding guide rods 5! and bearing between fixed standards 52 and the slide.
The remaining pair of sides 23 and 24 of the die are identical, but oppositely disposed, and
each is mounted for sliding movement along the surface of bed plate 28 by having bottom flanges 54 resting on that surface and guided by bolts 55 operating in slots 56 in these flanges. Each of these die sides is attached by a toggle, comprising links and 58 pivoted together at 59, to the pivot 68 of an abutment 6| secured to the bed of the machine.
When these toggles are straight as shown, the ends of links 51, which are received in recesses in the side walls of the die parts, hold these parts in their position of nearest approach to each other, but when the toggles are broken by moving pivots 58 upwardly as viewed in Figure 1, the die parts are drawn apart slightly to facilitate the entrance of the blank and plunger between them. This drawing apart by breaking the toggles is effected by means of links 82, each pivoted at 58 to the junction of the two links of the toggle and at 63 to members 64 attached to the slide 32. It will thus be seen that movement of the single slide not only imparts movement in the same direction to die part 22 but movement at right angles thereof and simultaneously to die parts 23 and 24.
As seen in Figure 3, fixed die side 2| and its partner 22 have sloping faces 68 set at the same angle in respect to movable bottom plate 25 as are the sides of the finished box to its bottom. Suitable chamfered corners B'I facilitate the entrance of the blank into the die and assist in turning up the sides and ends. Any additional folder guides necessary to turn the wings about the ends can be used such as might be necessary to facilitate this operation. Die parts 2| and 22, as seen in Figure 9, which shows all of the parts in their separated positions, are not much greater in horizontal length than the width of the box and have relieved corners 58, but die parts 23 and 24 not only have relieved corners 88 to cooperate with corners 68 to close the die, but have extensions 18 which bear against the ends of die parts 2| and 22 when they are all clamped together as in Figure 1.
The plunger is mounted for reciprocation into and out of the die and includes two main parts independently and jointly movable. The one part comprises a thin plate I5 of substantially the same shape as movable bottom 25 of the die and which is adapted to first engage the blank and press it into the die. The second or main plunger part'lB is arranged to be moved independently of the plate l5 on a part of the down-- stroke but the two move together on the upstroke.
The main plunger 18 has a body Ti in the form of a casting, substantially square in horizontal section, and to which are attached wedge-like side plates E8 to give the plunger the configuration of the inside of a finished box. The casting has a central opening therein with four sides each parallel to one of the walls of the casting. This opening receives the lower end or head of plunger rod 88, the upper end of which is attached by means of bracket 8| to the vertically reciprocated cross head of the machine for imparting to the plunger the desired motion.
The head of this plunger rod has three faces 82, 83 and 88 which closely engage the corresponding walls of the opening in the plunger casting, but fourth wall 85 has considerable clearance 85 from its corresponding opening wall. The plunger and its rod are mounted for movement in unison and are connected together by keys 88 each bolted to the top of the casting as seen in Figures 6 and 7 and having their inner edges closely fitting in grooves 89 in the faces 82 and 84. These keys permit relative lateral movement, to the extent of clearance 86, between the rod and plunger head which is in the same direction as the movement of the die part 22. .5
This permits displacement of the plunger head caused by movement of die part 22 to clamp the folded wings on both ends of the box between the die parts and the plunger. If this clearance and relative movement were not provided, lateral strain would be applied to the plunger rod. The plunger is'held in proper position in relation to the head of its rod by means of the helical spring 98 housed in an opening in the casting and bearin against the face 85 of the rod head. The rod 88 is hollow to receive and guide secondary rod 82 which has its lower or head end secured by means of suitable quick detachable mechan sm 93 to the plate 15. Friction brake means 85 and a detent mechanism 88 serve to connect the main and secondary rods for simultaneous movement, with plate 15 in advance of the main plunger head to the extent shown in Figures 3 and 4, when power is applied to the main rod. When the plate I5 is stopped by the bottom plate 25 of the die reaching its lowest position, further application of power to the main rod causes the release of detent mechanism 96, which is fully described in my previously mentioned Patent No. 1,935,032, and permits the main plunger to follow down into the die.
The plunger casting has extending upwardly from each corner an integral extension I88 best shown in Figures 5 and 6. These extensions are of irregular cross section, but each has two faces I8I each coincident with one of the faces of the main portion of the casting to which the wedge blocks 78 are secured. Each of these faces is grooved as at I82 and these grooves are extended on down through the full length of the faces of 5 the main body to provide a guide and receptacle for the straight stem portion I84 of a folder. This stem portion I84 is preferably rectangular in cross section and just fills the groove I82. Most of the upper portion of each groove is completely 5" closed by a plate I85 attached to the extension by screws as shown in Figures 3 and 4 and these plates thus hold the folder stems in their grooves. Downward movement of the folders is limited by engagement of the pins I86 which extend through 1 the upper ends of the stems with the top surfaces of the extensions I88.
Each folder has splayed portion I88 at the bottom thereof, the undersurface I89 of which is adapted to engage the upstanding flaps on the manner the full length flaps I5, I5 are folded in slightly ahead of the half length flaps l1, H.
The normal position of the folders when the plunger is advancing toward the die is shown in Figures 3 and 4, with pins I86 down against the tops of extensions I88 and splayed ends I88 pro- 7 jecting below the bottom of the plunger. As the plunger moves downwardly, and after the flaps have been folded in a sufficient distance to be in the path of the main body of the plunger, the
flat ends II8 on the folders abut the bottoms of recesses III in the upper edges of their corresponding die sides and their further downward movement thereof is stopped but the plunger continues to move downwardly. To provide for this movement not only are the wedge plates I8 grooved to accommodate the splayed portions of the folders, but these grooves extend on upwardly into the plates I05 as seen at H2.
The grooves in the plates I05 are not as wide as the width of portions I08 of the folders, for otherwise no support against lateral spreading of the folders would be provided. Grooves II4 are therefore provided in the sides of the parts I08 just adjacent their junction with stems of the folder and thus permit movement of the folder ends up through grooves I06. The wedge plates 18 are grooved to the full width of splayed ends I08 for a part of their depth, but the innermost portion, of the same thickness as the plates I05, has the same width slots as these plates, thus providing adequate support for the folder stems throughout the full length of their movement and yet permitting the splayed portions to assume a position above the body of the plunger when it is housed in the die.
The stem portion I04 of each folder has a shallow recess I20 in one of its edges which is engaged by the end I2I of pin I22 guided in an aperture in extension I and having a leaf spring I23 bearing on its head. When this pin end I2I is fitted into recess I20 it holds the folder in the position shown in Figures 3 and 4, or in other words, in its folding position, and sufficient resistance is offered by this device to fold the flap, but when the end of the folder engages the bottom of the recess in the top of the die, the pin connection is broken and the plunger is permitted to move on down over the folder. When the plunger is withdrawn from the die the folders are held in their uppermost positions by friction and in order to return them to their proper position for folding on the next stroke, there is positioned above each folder an adjustable resetting screw I25 suitably carried on a frame I26 supported by rods I21. These screws are so positioned vertically that they engage the ends of stems I04 of the folders during the upward movement of the plunger and stop their movement while the plunger continues to rise until pin ends I'll drop into recesses I28 and lock the folders in position in respect to the plunger.
In operation, the device starts with the dies set as shown in Figure 9, with a blank positioned, by suitable mechanism, with its bottom portion over the opening in the die and resting on the raised plate 25. The plunger with its parts 75 and I6 separated to the extent shown in Figures 3 and 4 then starts on its downward movement. The plate I engages the blank portion which forms the bottom of the finished basket and clamps it against movable bottom 25 of the die. Thereafter parts and 25 move together with this bottom clamped between them. The die sides are engaged by the parts which form the sides and ends of the box and fold them upwardly into substantially their final positions by the time plate 25 reaches the bottom of its permitted stroke when it is stopped by suitable mechanism. This causes detent 96, which connects secondary rod 92 on which plate I5 is carried to main rod 80, to release and the main rod and its plunger continue the downward movement alone.
The inwardly inclined lower edges of the folders now engage the upper edges of the flaps of the box, which stick up above the edges of the die, and as the plunger moves downwardly, they fold these flaps inwardly until they lie substan tially along faces I09 of the folders, at which time the edges of the flaps are beneath the bottom of the main portion of the plunger. The flat ends I of the folders now come into engagement with the bottoms of recesses III in the tops of the die parts. Further movement of the plunger continues, and detent pins I2I are pressed out of the recesses I in the folder stems so that the folders remain stationary. Continued movement of the main plunger presses the flaps downwardly and outwardly until their total folding movement is about 180. As soon as the plunger bottom reaches the top of plate 75, movement of its drive mechanism is stopped and movement of slide 32 begins.
This movement of the slide presses die member 22 to the right as seen in Figure 2 to tightly press the wings engaged by this die member against the end of the box. The corresponding flaps are also pressed against their box end. This imparts a slight lateral movement to the plunger, permitted by the connection previously described, and tightly clamps the other wings and flaps to their box end by cooperation of the plunger and stationary die side. Since lateral movement of the plunger is desirable in one direction only for obvious reasons, the remaining two sides of the die are moved simultaneously throughout the exact same distance and their movement starts with the movement of the single movable side of the die but is not so rapid, so the plunger is not so tightly clamped that movement thereof by die side 22 is prevented. The pair of movable sides in coming together tightly clamps the flaps at the tops of their cooperating box sides and ensures proper adhesion of their inner surfaces to the inner faces of the box sides.
When the plunger is withdrawn, it moves more rapidly than the bottom plate of the die and is out of the way by the time this plate reaches the top surface of the die sides so that the box can readily be pushed aside to make room for the next blank. During the lifting operation of the plunger both parts thereof move together until member I50, which is lowered by mechanism operated in synchronism with the other parts of the machine, is engaged by secondary rod 92. This arrests upward movement of that rod during continued movement of the main rod until the detent 96 again engages rod 92 and again locks plate 75 in its desired position ahead of the main plunger.
By the mechanism just described, the four sided box can be completely formed at a single stroke of the plunger, a reinforcing flap or cuff can be folded in on all four sides and a final pressure given to all four sides to ensure the adequate shaping of the box by clamping the folds tightly. Final pressure is also imparted to ensure adequate adhesion of the parts.

DCA requests more time
Date: September 8, 2010
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
The Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) wants more time to decide whether the Town Commission's decision in May to adopt changes to its codes is consistent with the town's Comprehensive Plan.
DCA Assistant General Counsel Lynette Norr sent an e-mail to Longboat Key Town Attorney David Persson and Islandside Property Owners Coalition attorney Michael Furen Friday, Sept. 3, alerting them the department would like to delay its consistency determination from Sept. 13 to Oct. 13.
Both the town and IPOC agreed to the 30-day extension.
The Islandside Property Owners Coalition (IPOC) filed an administrative appeal July 14, challenging code changes approved by the Town Commission May 3.
The Longboat Key Club and Resort submitted the seven changes to the code in an effort to diminish many of the legal challenges presented by IPOC, which opposes the club's $400 million renovation-and-expansion project.
Because the town chose not to respond to a request by IPOC to amend the changes made within 30 days of its request, IPOC attorney Michael Furen filed the administrative appeal that's now under review with the DCA in Tallahassee.
On Tuesday, Aug. 24, Norr and DCA planner Scott Rogers heard appeal testimony from IPOC, the town and Key Club officials at the SunTrust Bank Building on Bay Isles Road.
IPOC attorneys argued that the code changes are inconsistent with the town's comprehensive plan, which acts as the town's guide for future development.
Persson, meanwhile, maintains that the comprehensive plan may not be perfect, but it was approved by the DCA, and the code changes are consistent with the current plan.
On Tuesday, Sept. 7, Persson told The Longboat Observer he believes "it's a good sign" that DCA wants to take a longer look at the issue before them.
"Longboat's land-use regulations aren't the most self-apparent to someone who is not familiar with working with them," Persson said. "But I think once DCA understands the regulatory system, it should become more apparent that the changes to the code are consistent with the town's state-approved comprehensive plan."
If the state decides that the town's actions were inconsistent with its comprehensive plan, the matter is referred to the governor and his cabinet, who have the ability to impose sanctions on the town, including taking away revenue-sharing funds that includes funds available for town beach renourishment projects.
IPOC also has the right to file an appeal with the District Court of Appeals if DCA disagrees with IPOC's view.

WE like our scientific conclusions to come with a high degree of certainty, but smart scientists know better than to flatly declare that the earth is round until they're darn sure that it is round.
A new conclusion about seismic activity says that man is "almost certainly" responsible for a spate of recent earthquakes in Oklahoma and elsewhere. This is not a certainty, mind you, but an "almost" certainty. That's enough for political activists to seize on the conclusion, tie the earthquake outbreak to hydraulic fracturing and strike another blow for environmentalism.
Some isolated earthquakes may be related to saltwater injection, a byproduct of fracturing, but that's only a supposition at this point. To conclude that a swath of earthquakes across America is attributable solely to oil and gas activity is a seismic leap.
Cited as part of the conclusion is the record number of quakes and the record size of the central Oklahoma earthquake last year. "Record" is the key word here, as it is in the debate over climate change. In 2011, Oklahoma had the hottest summer on "record" and this was "almost" certainly a result of climate change, which was "almost" certainly caused by humankind.
Problem is, climatological events and geological events go back millions of years (of that we are "almost" certain, while allowing others to believe in a younger earth). We don't know how hot it was in Oklahoma just 200 years ago because records weren't kept. We don't know how many earthquakes were recorded in Oklahoma 500 years ago because there was no way to measure them.
We do know that earthquakes — and hot summers — have been experienced since humans have walked the earth and we are truly certain, not "almost" certain, that people didn't cause this throughout history.

Versace to open Macau luxury hotel
Published Date
The Italian luxury brand has signed a deal to open its third 'Palazzo' hotel, as part of a new casino resort development in Cotai, Macau.
Versace has partnered with Hong Kong based SJM holdings on the deal, which will see a new five star hotel opening in the Chinese city of Macau. The new location will join the company's two Palazzo Versace hotels, located in Dubai (where plans for a refrigerated beach sadly had to be scrapped) and on Australia's Gold Coast.
Macau, which featured in last year's James Bond blockbuster "Skyfall," is one of China's two special administrative regions, alongside Hong Kong. The former Portuguese colony is the only part of the People's Republic where casinos are permitted, and it's a lucrative business.
According to Bloomberg, Macau raked in around $38 billion from casinos in 2012 with tourist numbers from mainland China and Hong Kong growing year on year.
Luxury hotels are an increasingly big attraction for fashion brands: Giorgio Armani has two locations in Dubai and Milan, while fellow Italian label Bulgari has three hotels in London, Milan and Bali, restaurants in Japan and a new Shanghai spot set to open up in 2015.

More than 200 delegates representing 100 countries attended the largest The Chief of Naval Operations (CNO), Adm. Gary Roughead, participated in the 7th Regional Seapower Symposium for the Mediterranean and Black Sea Countries Oct. 15-17 in .
The symposium's theme of "Navies Promoting Dialogue & Cooperation in a Comprehensive Perspective," is similar to the maritime strategy with its emphasis on the importance of enhancing cooperation and building partnerships with maritime partners.
Roughead said the symposium allows maritime chiefs to discuss ways navies and maritime organizations of the world can work more closely together and share information that makes that cooperation more effective.
Roughead interacted with leaders from nearly 40 countries in the region including members of NATO and other world and regional agencies. He stressed that capacity is what gives navies the ability to be forward, the ability to respond rapidly with credible combat power.
During his remarks to the international maritime leaders, CNO discussed several examples of the cooperation among all the countries, including their participation in joint training exercises at sea and information and personnel exchanges. He said whether it is maritime security operations, information sharing or combat operations, he strives to ensure the Navy's systems can work in concert with those of our friends, partners and allies.

text: TweetSharebar Rumors have been going back & forth when it comes to Star Wars: Episode VII. Rumors on the title, to rumors on the plot but most rumors have been about who will be cast in the upcoming film. The rumors get even more interesting, especially when it comes to Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford & Benedict Cumberbatch did an interview recently on a UK show called the Graham Norton Show. On the interview, Norton goes right into asking Ford if he would be in the upcoming Star Wars film. Ford seemed like he didn't know what to say with a bunch of stuttering & mumbles then looks at Cumberbatch, which he tells Ford, "well I think it's safe to say you're in it." Ford then whispers to Cumberbatch saying "but why is it safe?" Ford then gets asked again & his reply was literally jibberish & he quickly changed the subject to talk about how big of a fan he is of Cumberbatch. Norton then asks Cumberbatch (who has also been rumored to be in the film) the same question & Cumberbatch pretty much has the same exact reply back to Norton, a bunch of jibberish. It's pretty hilarious to watch how much they obviously & awkwardly tried to avoid the Star Wars questions. Today, a site called Jedinews.com, reported that not only is Harrison Ford coming back as Han Solo, but there apparently has been a deal made that in order for Ford to come back, Ford would have to be assured that Han Solo would live passed Episode VII as well as Ford being assured that progress would be made on Indiana Jones 5. Here is the "verbal agreement" that the site has posted: "Ford wanted to see the synopsis for his character's development over more than just Episode 7. He saw this in August and is happy with the story arc." "Ford wanted a commitment to Indy 5. He did not get this as there is no plot line or script in place. What did happen was an agreement was made wherein an outline would be developed by the end of calendar year 2014, and if all parties can agree to it moving forward, efforts would be made to move on Indy 5 for release before the end of 2016." "Disney wanted a multi film deal with Ford which transcends Episode 7. This has now been agreed." Now before anyone jumps the "blaster" of course, none of this has been confirmed by Disney nor has it been confirmed by Lucasfilm (which the site also notes). So for now, this just adds to the rumors but makes it even more quite interesting now that Indiana Jones 5 is thrown into the mix. Related More Stories From Nuke The Fridge Below!

"Please Don't Start Drama That Doesn't Exist" Adrienne Bailon Responds To Chris Brown
When the ladies of "The Real" sat down to speak about the topic of friends dating shiesty dudes, referencing Chris and Karrueche's on-again, off-again relationship, I doubt they thought it would cause so much of a stink.
But Chris Brown got word that the ladies were talking about him and his girl and he acted a fool.
He singled out Tamar and Adrienne, calling them all types of names and attempting to bring up Adrienne's sexual history. Which was interesting considering Jeannie Mai was really the one coming for him. (And that's not a diss toward Jeannie. Anyone with internet access has seen how Chris gets down. It's out there.)
The issue is still Chris' apparent disrespect of women.
Either way, Tamar already responded.
And now Adrienne's chiming in with her two cents, just a little bit more quietly.
According to The Shade Room, Adrienne Bailon headed straight over to Chris Brown's Instagram page with her response.
"Who said anything bad about her? I actually know her…We're cool. The conversation was generally speaking of anyone who may "possibly" be in a bad relationship. Please don't start drama that doesn't EXIST. If she's happy…So am I. And I certainly STARTED my career in a multi platinum singing group. Get your facts straight. You don't need to freeload when you have your own Barbie. God bless. <3″
What do you think about Adrienne's response? Personally, I admire the fact that she went right to Chris Brown's page, instead of creating several Instagram posts.
Take a look at it in the image below.

Did Chris Brown Take Karrueche's Friend To St. Tropez After They Broke Up?
Looks like Chris Brown and Karrueche are on yet another break…and after she held him down during his recent incarceration. Shame.
We knew things were on a downward spiral when Chris was out here liking a Photoshopped picture of him and Rihanna in bed together. While this may seem minor to some, we all know by now that these type of social media behaviors are not by chance. We all recall the days when Chris unfollowed Rihanna or vice versa and the very next day we'd learn that the two were no longer dating.
And apparently, an Instagram like means quite a bit.
Anyway, rumor has it that when Karrueche found out Chris was liking pictures of him and his ex together, she naturally wasn't too happy about it. Particularly because he made a mini documentary professing his love to two different women. But according to TMZ, Rihanna is only a small part of the problem. A source told TMZ that Karrueche thinks Chris is behaving immaturely, acting like a child spending more time partying than he is making music.
And from the looks of it, it doesn't seem like Chris is taking their breakup all that hard. Instead, he posted a couple of tweets about taking relationship advice from the wrong people and the very trite and degrading "these hoes ain't loyal" line.
He tweeted: "Be careful who u take relationship advice from. Especially if they are single. They're single for a reason! Lol #lonelyfaceass."
And then: "These hoes ain't loyal but my fans damn sure are!"
It didn't stop with the tweets, Chris went to St. Tropez. And to add insult to injury, he took one of Karrueche's friends along with him. And of course the two were photographed together both on Chris' personal Instagram and by the paparazzi.
Exhibit A: (She's the girl with the dark hair, also seen with Karrueche in the picture below.)
Karrueche hasn't exactly confirmed a split but she did post this subliminal picture on Instagram, seemingly directed at Chris.
Sometimes it really is hard to tell who celebrities are referencing with these random memes. But considering how Chris' comb over conk was all over the internet, this one seems like it's all about Breezy.
Either way what do you think? Is this it for Chris and Karrueche or is this just another chapter in their relationship tome?

Doing Time Will Reveal:Chris Brown and James DeBarge Making Music Together in Prison
You got to give it to Chris Brown: He's about his music. Still riding the success of his single "Loyal", he may just be collaborating with an R&B veteran for his next jam.
Turns out that according to TMZ, Brown is locked in a cell that's right next to none other than James DeBarge. The site reports that while locked up in a unit reserved for high-profile inmates, the two have already written three songs, at times performing them while the other inmates sing back up. And get this: None of the inmates can really see each other, it's all about the harmony.
James Curtis DeBarge was once apart of the family group "DeBarge" with brother El. He's also famous for marrying Janet Jackson in 1984, before the marriage was annulled a year later. He is currently being held in the Los Angeles County Sheriff's department County Jail for Men on drug possession and assault with a deadly weapon charges.
Brings a whole new meaning to the term "jailhouse rock" doesn't it?
In somewhat related news, Brown's ride or die, Karrueche Tran sparked rumors of an engagement when she showed up at her surprise party with a major rock on her left hand. Let us find out Chris will be planning a wedding and a duets album with James DeBarge when he's released.

Karrueche Holds It Down For Chris Brown
Chris Brown may be belting out "these girls ain't loyal" every five seconds on your local radio station. But we can't tell by the way his ex Karrueche is staying committed to his case.
Karrueche arrived at a D.C. courthouse along with Brown's mother Joyce Hawkins to offer her support on Friday. Musicians Bow Wow and Tank also made an appearance.
Judge Patricia Wynn was scheduled to deliver her verdict in Brown's bodyguard Christopher Hollosy's trial but delayed it until Monday. Hollosy was charged with assaulting a 20-year-old man who tried to take a picture with the singer outside the W Hotel, although the victim insists it was Brown who threw the punch that broke his nose. Brown denies the allegations saying the man was trying to get on his tour bus.
Following the incident, Brown checked himself into rehab in October, before getting kicked out shortly thereafter for violating "internal rules". He was taken to a Los Angeles jail where he was ordered to stay until the D.C. trial. However, Breezy is spending Easter behind bars at the Northern Neck Regional Jail in Virginia.
The on and off again couple had a very public break up last month after Chris was allegedly caught being unfaithful via sexting. She may not want to be with him, but Karrueche must love her some Chris. It's good to see the singer has so much faithful support despite his numerous troubles.

Can't Stay Away: Watch Chris Brown Call Karrueche From Jail And Profess His Love
You know the Chris Brown, Karrueche saga never ends. It's hard to keep up. Seemed like just two weeks ago, it was official that the two were finished. But a new Instagram video seems to suggest otherwise.
Whether the two are together or not, Chris Brown solicited the help of Karrueche to send a message to his fans and let the world know he loves Kae Kae. Someone captured the exchange on video and uploaded it to Instagram.
Chris said:
"Just calling all my fans– letting y'all know I love y'all. Thank y'all for all the support. Thank you for everything. The new video just came out so I hope y'all enjoy that and most importantly, Kae, Karrueche- I love you. So thank you babe."
Honey, whether they're together or not, the big, giddy grin on Karrueche's face speaks volumes. In my best T-Pain voice, "She's spruuuunnng. Dog, Chris got her."

Did Y'all See? Chris Brown/Karrueche, Halle/Olivier Split?
This week was not a good one for some of Hollywood's most talked about couples. The week started out with news of Karrueche seemingly announcing that her relationship with Chris Brown had run its course, even though the "They Don't Know" singer announced on Twitter a few days later that his on-again, off-again girlfriend would always have his heart. And a little later in the wee, came the far more disturbing news that Halle Berry's third marriage to Olivier Martinez might already be on the rocks right after the birth of their son. Say it ain't so!
Just in case it is so, MN's editors are discussing both of these couples rumored to be stationed in splitsville and weighing in on the Real Housewives' most notoriously doomed relationship, Porsha Stewart and Kordell. Watch Did Y'all See? and discuss.

Is Chris Brown Talking To Rihanna In New Song "Love 2 Remember"
Fresh out of rehab, Chris Brown has released his mixtape "X Files." And one song "Love 2 Remember" has many speculating that Breezy is crying out to Rihanna.
From the beginning of the song he says he's trying to mend things but his girl is accusing him of messing up–cheating–though he's really not doing anything.
I'm tryna make peace babe, these tears run down my face. So I close my eyes, but we both cry. And you say this is it baby baby. She said she tired of my s**t, she wanna quit. The funny thing, I've been good to her. Not doing s**t.
But she think that I've been f**king with Keisha – Latoya and Lisa, Dea and Diane, Nicki and Amber.
Got to be out of your damn mind!
Then Chris describes the ways he's coping with his lost love.
Tell me what am I supposed to do. There's something wrong, I feel it too. Before we used to see each other, now you wanna talk about space – you've changed. You wanna leave me but you can't tell me.
Why do we argue! Why do we scream!
I wish it was better, I don't want you to leave. So sick & tired of drinking this bottle. Contemplate, and I feel overdosed, I think that one shot will stop the pain.
And then he ends the song on a hopeful note.
This is a love to remember. Don't cry, don't cry. We'll meet again once upon a time.
You could argue that the song could be about Rihanna or Karrueche, considering Chris has been known to bounce back and forth. But as one Bossip commenter pointed out, Karrueche has proven that she's not in anybody's rush to leave Chris.
Take a listen to the song in its entirety and let us know what you think, is this about Rihanna or Karrueche?

Dunzo? Did Chris Brown and Karrueche Break Up…Again?
If you're ever wondering what's going on with Chris Brown on the relationship front, all you need do is find out who he is and isn't following on Twitter. As dumb as that sounds, in the past, it's been an insanely accurate depiction of his relationship status with the infamous love triangle members, Brown, Karrueche and Rihanna.
And today, it looks like Karruche Tran is on the chopping block…again. Not only did Chris Brown and Karrueche stop following each other, Chris also tweeted these cryptic messages:
Don't sleep with a white tee on next to ya shawty. Gonna wake up wit footprints on ya back.
— Chris Brown (@chrisbrown) October 22, 2013
Back turned walking away from the situation. Hamisheh asegh!
— Chris Brown (@chrisbrown) October 22, 2013
Umm…yeah I don't exactly get it either. But according to the IBTimes.com, "Hamisheh asegh" is Persian for "perpetual lover." And we don't know if this is related, but it's also a nice, little melodic song.
Who knows. Right now, it's a bit too early to tell; but we're sure with Chris' penchant for the dramatics, we'll know what's up one way or another.
Chris and Karrueche are supposed to be hosting a Halloween event together in Las Vegas, let's see if they show up for that.

Chris Brown Offers Advice To Young Black Men Following Zimmerman Verdict And Weighs In On His Own Love Life
Youtube channel "hollywoodlife09″ caught up with singer Chris Brown to discuss quite a few things going on in his life. Among them, Breezy was asked if he had any advice for young Black men since the Zimmerman verdict was passed down, considering he was quite vocal about his disappointment with the decision. He had this to say:
"Keep your head up because stereotype is something I'm familiar with… As a young entertainer I've dealt with the slander… With these young kids coming up it's all about the choices that they make. It's always going to be about the choices… They have to surround themselves with the people that's going to think positive."
"It's all about giving back and being a role model… You gotta be hands-on."
He also touched on his new movie coming out "Battle of the Year" and how he wanted to showcase hip hop and the art of b-boying. Chris was then asked the question that millions of fans have been pondering as of late… Is he involved with anyone?
"Well you know, in my past experiences they've seen me on and off again with different girls… you know how the whole thing is… But for right now, I just chose as a 24-year-old man just to be single, you know what I mean? I'll still do the friend [thing]… but it's just about being focused on the music and basically doing this stuff because right now I'm in my prime…"
It seems like he's got his head screwed on straight right now and we're hoping it lasts.

Just Like Old Times: Chris Brown And Karrueche Boo'd Up At Billboard After Party
We fully expected a Chris Brown – Karrueche Tran reunion sooner or later after we heard the "Fine China" singer broke up with Rihanna, and according to the NY Post, that's happened sooner rather than later.
Reportedly after the Billboard Music Awards Sunday night, Breezy headed to the Bank nightclub at the Bellagio in Vegas for a party hosted by Bruno Mars and according one witness:
"Brown was standing on the banquette dancing with Tran . . . he bent down a few times to kiss her, and kept running his hand through her hair and singing to her."
Is anyone surprised? The mere fact that Karrueche was tolerating all of the Rihanna nonsense before Chris so publicly broke up with her to be with the Bajan singer told us she'd most likely be right there whenever that little trist came to an end, and it looks like that prediction was right.
Wonder how long this reunion will last?

When I first saw the fabric it reminded me of my Dr.Martens. I thought its going to be a good combination. I had in mind winter black skirt with bloks of new fabric. The thing is that I was not able to wait for new black winter material… and here it si… skirt for my boots, its just that skirt is summer, not winter. And, I thought that skirt from Burda 7/2012, no. 134 would be great. As the skirt is in "plusmode" it was too big for me, so I downsized and changed and… ah… this is the result.

Coyotes deal Matthew Lombardi to Anaheim
According to various reports, the Phoenix Coyotes have traded center Matthew Lombardi to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Brandon McMillan.
Lombardi, 31, tallied eight points in 21 games this season, while McMillan, 23, has scored one point in six games.
Lombardi rejoined the Coyotes this season after two years away from the team, though injuries derailed his second stint with the team. The owner of 101 goals and 161 assists in his career, he was set to become a free agent at the conclusion of this season.
So, rather than keep him and risk getting zero return if he left as a free agent, the team decided it best to ship him out for McMillan, who has shown flashes but has yet to put it all together in the NHL.
Formerly a third-round pick of the Ducks in 2008, he's appeared in 91 NHL games, notching 11 goals and 15 assists.
