Edgeware Angle Adjust Wins Red Dot Award For Design
Thursday March 14th, 2013 - 10:53AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Smith's Consumer Products has won a "red dot award: product design" for the Edgeware Angle Adjust Manual Sharpener, the first adjustable manual sharpener of its kind, according to the company. Unlike traditional-style manual knife sharpeners that change the angle of the knife to match the angle in the preset slots of a sharpener, the Edgeware Angle Adjust Manual Sharpener adjusts to match the angle originally produced by the knife manufacturer.
The product includes three slots for sharpening. The coarse and fine slots adjust with the turn of a knob. The serrated slot is a fixed-angle slot for serrated knives.
"We are honored to be chosen for this prestigious international design award and are so proud that our hard work has been recognized," said Dan Glidden, CEO, Smith's Consumer Products.
The Edgeware Angle Adjust Manual Knife Sharpener was designed by Carter McGuyer and the Carter McGuyer Design Group, Inc. of Tuscumbia, AL.
"As a product designer I know how difficult it is to break through the clutter and impress this prestigious panel. We are thrilled that we've been recognized by red dot for this innovative product," said Carter McGuyer.
From July 2 to 28, the red dot design museum will host its traditional special exhibition of the award-winning products. In "Design on stage – winner's red dot award: product design 2013," design enthusiasts can see the latest trends.

Fantastic! This was a simple recipe for a midweek meal, so easy to prepare and exceptionally flavorful. I have this recipe in my favorites and I will be making this again. Followed directions exactly, made enough for dinner and lunch tomorrow. Thank you for posting!
This was sooooo good! We loved the intense vinegar taste. I served it with the very mild Buttered Wine Rice, #216575, and it worked well together. I used boneless skinless thighs in place of the whole chicken, and I halved the amount of butter and olive oil, and it turned out great. Thanks Aunty Dotty! Made for PAC Fall 2007.
Oh yeah! We loved this! In fact, I saved the extra sauce & froze it to simmer some boneless whatevers in it later. Made for "I've saved all these recipes!" March Diabetic Tag.
We absolutely loved this chicken. I knew I would love it because I love the red wine flavor, but was a little worried that the family would love it as much, but they did. I did use chicken breast only, and it was a large pack, so I had some left over and it made a great meat base for a pot of soup the next day....can't beat that, 2 great meals off of one recipe!!!

We have a very large child control which does a lot of rendering to display its detail, but since only a portion of that control is actually visible (it's clipped by something further up the hierarchy, not necessarily its immediate parent) we only want to render the visible portion during the OnRender call.
Consider the following picture. The child is 100x50 but the visible area is a rectangle with corners at (10,5) and (100,50) in child coordinates. That's the area we're looking for.
Note: You can't simply do coordinate conversions from the child to the parent and test for clipping because it may not be the parent that's doing the clipping.
Consider nested Canvas controls inside a ScrollViewer. The inner Canvas may very well lay completely within the bounds of the outer Canvas, but the outer Canvas may be clipped by the ScrollViewer, thus the inner Canvas is visually clipped by it as well.
Walking the visual tree and testing each parent would kill performance.
So is there anything built in to WPF that can get the bounds of the visible area of a control?

CHICAGO -- President Obama recently worked on some hamburger diplomacy with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, chowing down with the leader at a D.C. burger joint.
Given his relationship with Carlos Zambrano, maybe Ozzie Guillen could break bread (or share tapas) with the erratic ace and his real bosses, Lou Piniella and Jim Hendry, who are ready to go nuclear on Zambrano.
The Wit Hotel Accord, perhaps?
The White Sox won the AIG/New Coke/Acme Brand Explosives Crosstown Chalice, and stretched their amazing win streak to 11 games before the Cubs gritted out an 8-6 win Sunday, but the biggest news of the weekend was the Curious Case of Carlos Zambrano.
The now-suspended man-child chewed out his teammates Friday before chowing down with Ozzie Guillen that evening in a much-maligned dinner.
Two of Guillen's media-savvy kids posted Twitter updates of the Friday night dinner at the tony Wit Hotel rooftop restaurant with Zambrano and the Guillen family. It was witty (Guillen) and witless (Zambrano), and it made plenty of news.
Cubs assistant GM Randy Bush referred derisively to Zambrano "yukking it up" Saturday, and Hendry and Piniella, neither of whom have spoken to Zambrano since the GM suspended him, expressed disappointment Sunday in the way the pitcher handled the aftermath of the situation he created.
While Zambrano has little trouble leaving it at the field, Piniella wears his losses like he wears his baseball uniform at his age. Which is to say, not well.
"I hadn't seen my daughter since I left for spring training," Piniella said Sunday morning. "That was in mid-February. She got in Friday night from Tampa and I got home into my apartment and my wife and daughter wanted me to go eat dinner with them. I was sick from what happened and I was very tired and I was embarrassed. They both went out and ate by themselves and I stayed home. That's all I've got to say about that situation."
Piniella doesn't miss many good meals downtown, so that shows how hard he is taking this season and how much Zambrano's epic meltdown, which culminated in an immediate suspension, is hurting him and his appetite. A few more weeks of bad baseball, Sweet Lou could be in "Dancing With the Stars" shape.
The Cubs' skipper likely missed another dinner Saturday night as his coaches huddled at the park, trying to figure out how to fix things, and likely engaging in some yukking it up of their own, gallows-style.
"You have to be able laugh just a little bit," Piniella said. "Look, we've got three months to play here. It's not like we have two weeks. It's going to turn into a long summer if we don't turn our fortunes around."
Piniella wasn't laughing after Sunday's game, which almost ended in disaster as Carlos Marmol imploded in a non-save situation. On a humid day, Piniella sweated a little extra as Marmol walked three, gave up two hits and three runs. Marmol struck out Alex Rios with two on to end the game.
"Look, it's in the win column," Piniella said. "Let's go back to Wrigley and have a good series against Pittsburgh and Cincinnati and go from there."
The Lose Two, Win One Cubs are a long way from emulating the White Sox, who are in spitting distance of the American League Central lead after a season-saving, ticket-selling run. But you have to start somewhere, right?
Pittsburgh comes calling with a 9-31 road record, so an actual, honest-to-goodness winning streak isn't an impossibility. But this Cubs win shouldn't come as much of a surprise and doesn't look like a harbinger of things to come.
As rare as a Cubs' road win has been, this one wasn't hard to foresee, even with young Sox ace John Danks on the mound. The Cubs came into the game hitting .281 against left-handers (compared to .256 overall) and are now 14-12 against lefty starters. If the Cubs could face left-handed starters every game and the White Sox were in the National League, this would be Baseball Town, USA.
More likely, we'll see more of the same out of this discombobulated Cubs lineup. Piniella was forced to hit super-rookie Tyler Colvin leadoff again because the traditional top four spots in his lineup are either ill-fitting or underperforming.
Colvin responded with another good game, going 3-for-5 with a three-run homer. He also drove in a run in the eighth, which turned out to be pretty valuable.
"Does it surprise me? No," Piniella said. "He's got good bat speed and the ball jumps off his bat. He's a confident kid. He believes he can get it done. Those are big ingredients for young kids."
While the outcome of Zambrano's suspension will continue to lead non-LeBron sports news in the city this week, let's not forget about Colvin, who is one of the only bright spots on this Cubs team. The North Siders aren't going on some major run until Aramis Ramirez and Derrek Lee get hot, and that's not a certainty, even with their track record. But Colvin has shown little fear and even with Piniella easing him into regular action, he's putting up numbers that will have him on the ballot for Rookie of the Year.
In reality, this Cubs team is headed for an expensive rebuilding mode and young players like Colvin, Starlin Castro and Andrew Cashner represent a merging of the present and the future.
While the White Sox, who deserve more attention than they're getting this weekend thanks to the Cubs' implosions, are alive and gunning for a return to the postseason, I just can't see this Cubs team putting together an inspired run, and I'm not sure the players feel it, either. The word I'm getting is that the clubhouse isn't divided as much as it's lethargic toward winning. Winning breeds chemistry and there isn't enough of either.
But you never know what's going to happen, baseball is a game of inches and that's why they play the games: All those clichés. What I do know is it'll be an interesting week at Wrigley Field, one way or another.

When I first watched this movie, I didn't think it was going to be any good. My best friend had convinced me to watch this 3 and a half hour long 1965 movie and I wasn't too sure how it was going to bed. But after watching the movie, I immediately knew that I had watched a masterpiece. The story is based on the best selling book by Boris Pasternak, taking place mostly in flashback from 1912-1921 Russia. It follows the story of two young people Yuri Zhivago and Larissa Antipova, also known as… Read Full Review

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEIGH! Thinking of you across the miles on your birthday. Hope it's an absolutely wonderful one, and you get thoroughly spoilt! Love you and miss you darling xx

There were pictures, quotes, and artifacts throughout the house. In each room there were video interviews playing of people who knew the Franks, van Pels, and Mr. Pfeffer. I was very touched by an interview of Anne's close friend who last saw her through a fence while they were both in ...

For most of my career I have programmed tools to automate the design of massively complicated server chips. While interesting I find that I am more interested in the application space that these servers and other systems support... i.e. embedded processors, wearables, integration of these with the app space, etc...
I'm somewhat obsessed with efficiency, so I am looking for tech that simplifies my already overly busy life. I am interested in developing/exploring ideas that allow me to wipe away the clutter and concentrate on the important stuff... important to me that is :-). That said I'm keeping an open mind as to what I might get out of the meetups.
Hi all. In short... Degree in Computer Engineering from UIUC in 2000. Designed server chips for DEC-Alpha then Intel for 13 years, emphasis on circuit design automation. Now I'm a freelance software developer.

text: Some Chinese companies have disclosed SEC inquiries of various sorts, including China Green Agriculture ( CGA), China Sky One Medical ( CSKI), Fuqi International ( FUQI) and now Duoyuan Printing. Duoyuan's troubles began last September, when the company dismissed its auditor, the Chinese affiliate of Deloitte, the Big Four firm. According to Duoyuan, Deloitte's auditors had asked to review original bank documents so they could "verify the identity of certain individuals and entities associated with third party distributors and vendors." Duoyuan refused and then fired the firm. It has yet to find a replacement. Meanwhile, the company's share price has tanked by more than 80% from its highs of about $10, set last year. Deloitte discovered other problems as well. During its audit of company financials, "Deloitte received information regarding certain distributors and vendors that appeared inconsistent with certain information that the Company had provided," Duoyuan said in its filing. Last year, amid the burgeoning scandal, which also saw the resignation of Duoyuan's CEO, CFO and the chair of its audit committee, the company's founder and chairman had a conference call with investors. "We're hearing suggestions that our company may be a fraud," he said during the call. "It is a very serious suggestion, and I want to be clear from the start that this is false. I'm confident that when the independent investigation is completed, these suggestions will be shown to be completely and totally untrue." Based in Beijing, Duoyuan Printing sold shares on the NYSE in November 2009 in an offering underwritten by Roth Capital and Piper Jaffray. -- Written by Scott Eden in New York RELATED STORIES: >>Another Resignation for China MediaExpress >>China RTO Stocks Slide After China Media Bombshell >>Orient Paper Pops After Results Gladden Bulls >>China Security Soars as CEO Talks Up LBO >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Scott Eden. >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/ScottEden. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ed. note: This case study is a selection from the 2014 "Justified" competition, for which an esteemed jury identified 19 submissions that demonstrate the value of design in a clear,
compelling and accessible way. To learn more about the jury's perspective on this selection, see the juror comments below.
Mohawk new that they needed to redefine their perspective on paper in a progressively digital world. What was briefed as a campaign for Superfine soon
evolved into an investigation of Mohawk as a brand and how the company and paper itself are culturally relevant. In this process, the paper industry's
chief communication device, the paper sample, needed to be re-imagined to connect with contemporary culture.
Maker culture, placing value in details, quality, discovery and tactility, was a natural cultural connection for Mohawk. A family company for more than 80
years, Mohawk's heart has always contained a maker's spirit. Mohawk needed to revive awareness of their rich and authentic history and celebrate how as
makers we are all connected.
To launch the campaign, Hybrid identified four brand pillars: heritage and innovation, mastery of materials, pride in the details and community. The first
publication, A Declaration of Craft, as well as a brand video, laid a foundation for these core beliefs. Subsequently, we targeted the creative
and print communities with a two-pronged approach: the Mohawk Maker Quarterly, designed to inspire and align the values of the maker community,
and the Mohawk Craft Cooperative, designed to reengage printers with their value as craftspeople.
This video celebrates Mohawk's core values and lays the foundation for the Culture of Craft Campaign. (credits: Dora Drimalas Design; Direction: Caleb Kozlowski; Camera: Jeff Dey; Production: Red Gate Films)
The project was originally briefed as a paper promotion for Superfine, which was to be Mohawk's promotional focus for the year. After initial
investigation, it became clear that there was a larger story to tell. We discovered that as digital commands more of the market share of communication, the
perceived role of paper has evolved from ephemeral to permanent. People saved printed communication for things that were special, coveted and crafted. We
needed to tell that story.
Digital has unseated print's place in culture as the default vehicle for commodity communications. The effects have been significant. Printers and paper
companies have closed their doors and those that are left are consistently pressured on price. Young designers advance in their careers with significantly
less print experience than their predecessors. While print is not dead, it has become progressively more niche and less understood.
We knew from the onset that we needed to rethink the paper promotion model, as it was suited selling in an older print landscape. Four strategic pillars
quickly formed:
We conducted interviews across the spectrum of paper, print and design to get the lay of the land and test some of our assumptions. Through these
interviews we revealed pain points that helped shape the direction of the campaign.
Paper needs to be special to be relevant today. Commodity communication is paper's past. Paper today is suited to moments of meaning and emotional weight.
While digital communication is ephemeral, paper conveys permanence. When we commit something to paper today we want to communicate significance.
This makes the details of paper and printing more important than ever. The specific texture of paper, the tactility of an embossing or the brightness of
fluorescent ink are all experiences unique to paper. The scarcity of these experiences in a digital world elevates print communications, making the details
more important than ever.
We brought this to life through the Declaration of Craft manifesto and video, laying out the company's core beliefs and tying these to maker
culture. From there we launched the Mohawk Maker Quarterly, designed to inspire the design community and reach out to the broader maker community.
Lastly we launched the Mohawk Craft Cooperative to help printers rediscover their role as craftsmen.
All publications act as paper samples, printed on different grades using different techniques, and work together to build a narrative around the Mohawk
Challenges did arise, as they always will when breaking new ground, but our collaboration and highly respectful relationship with the client resulted in a
solution of which we are incredibly proud.
The response from the design and maker community has been strong. Because the campaign is open, collaborative, inclusive and ongoing, people want to find
out how they can get involved.
"There's something wonderful and worthwhile about the effectiveness of the printed page. The designer chose to demonstrate the benefits and printability of
paper through the subject of the "maker" movement. The subject matter was the perfect platform to allow the designer to incorporate all the rich element of
graphic design and editorial art direction." —Dana Arnett
"On the surface, this project is a paper promotion. You may think, "That's easy" or ask "Should we be promoting the use of paper?" When you dig deeper, you
can see the designers took these considerations to heart. By developing unique content around the use of paper and promoting the notion of craft, this
project goes the distance in being something to read and keep around. I personally identify with the growing "maker" culture, as I saw the difference it
made to my team at Facebook. It's too easy these days to get sucked into our computers and forget the physical nature of design and making things." —Kate Aronowitz
"Finally, a paper sample project that is more than aesthetics; it delivers meaningful content, too." —Cameron Campbell
"While this project was designed for a very specific audience, we loved the craft, detail and content." —Joe Gebbia
"Design for designers is always tough to honor, but advocates within the jury took a firm stance that the design team tasked themselves with doing more,
generating content that moved the industry forward. The "Culture of Craft" also captures every popular design cliche of 2014." —Jennifer Kinon
"No one wants to see another paper promotion win a design award. Lavishly indulgent design and unlimited production budgets represent a breed of design
excess that's largely incompatible with how we view and value design today. But this is a campaign with substance. The unbound, tabloid-format series of
periodicals features interviews and articles about the many facets of 'maker culture.' It makes an argument for the power of printed communication not with
superficial ornament, but by commissioning and delivering substantive content regarding issues of craft—and delivering it in a crafted, tangible medium.
It's a gift, not a promotion—brilliantly positioned, surprisingly restrained, thoughtfully curated and impressively designed." —Christopher Simmons
AIGA's "Justified" competition recognizes case studies that demonstrate the value of design in a clear, compelling and accessible way. The 2014 "Justified" competition honors 19 exemplary case studies that successfully demonstrate the value of design.

IIP Internships in Architecture and Civil Engineering
IIP offers two types of summer international internships: IIP Placements and IIP-IN Programs.
IIP Placements: When you apply to an IIP Placement, you are applying to work at a specific organization within the parameters of the work responsibilities described on our website by the employer and past interns. Therefore, your personal statement should address why you are interested in that specific organization/placement.
IIP-IN Programs: IIP-IN Programs are our new internship programs managed by in-country providers. Each IIP-IN program offers placements in various areas of interest. When you apply to an IIP-IN program, you will not know which organization you will be paired with or the specific work responsibilities. Your personal statement should instead address why you want to work in that country, and in a general area of interest (listed under each IIP-IN description). You will then be interviewed by the in-country staff, and based on that conversation with you, they will find a placement that matches your skills and customize it to your interests.
IIP Placements and IIP-IN Programs both lead to internships in specific organizations abroad.
Please note that IIP internships need to be 8 consecutive weeks. The dates will be agreed upon by you and your employer.
