Bollegraaf Drumfeeder
The Bollegraaf Drumfeeder was specially designed to optimise your waste paper sorting system. The Drumfeeder ensures that your sorting system, baler or shredder has a constant flow.
To optimize the efficiency of your sorting installation, Bollegraaf has developed the BDF Drum Feeder. Together with a special version of the HBST steel belt conveyor with a 2000 mm high side wall (so-called Bunker belt) it forms a special feeder system that offers you the following advantages:
- Higher capacity of the sorting installation, because fewer empty/less high places on the feeder belt occur. The Drum Feeder ensures a constant, adjustable material flow.
- Better sorting quality. There are no more large piles present on the belt. As a result, the sorting units, such as screens, magnets, air separation and even hand sorting will not be overloaded in peaks and can provide optimum output at all times.
- Time-saving for the shovel operator, who, depending on the length of the Drum Feeder, only needs to fill the Drum Feeder a few times per hour.
- Any boxes are for the most part opened and flattened by the Drum Feeder.
- If the feeder system is not filled too high, large pieces of cardboard are torn into smaller pieces.
For easier loading of material into the system it can also be placed in a recessed or (concrete) pit.

Advocates say one thing, anti-vape campaigners say another; one side gets angry and the others up their game as they strive to win the argument. The cycle goes on and nobody seems to be winning. What we need is common ground, a shared experience to bring us all together. So we arranged a sporting event.
It's that time of year when supermarkets are full of plastic masks and multipacks of sweets. So, come join us. Sit down by the campfire, grab a marshmallow on a stick and listen to our tale – but be warned, it's very scary. It's like the new episode of The Walking Dead only without humour and sense of bonhomie.
"What are your plans, Stealthvape? How are you preparing for life in the apocalyptic 2017 TPD landscape?" Questions like this have cropped up with such a lack of frequency that it seemed like just the sort of thing we should address. So, as long as everybody promises not to nick our ideas here's what is in the pipeline.
It has come to our attention that some juice manufacturers are playing fast and loose with their branding. They are busy emulating the design work, logos and slogans of successful cereal, confectionary and bakery companies. Our considered and definitely serious opinion is below.
There have been so many vape stories in the media over the last few weeks. And, in almost every case, they are focussing on the dangers and risks vaping poses – dangers and risks of the explosive kind. We don't sell batteries but we know a thing or two about them so (in the hope that this article spreads a bit of safety knowledge) here is some advice.
Probably inspired by some film or other, clowns have been wreaking havoc across the United States. Now they're scaring people witless in Britain (who'd find watching an episode of Strictly Come Ed Balls frightening in the dark). What is going on and how does it relate to vaping? We decided to investigate.
Vaping is being cast as some kind of evil that is set to ruin the lives of generations to come. It's laughable, we all know that much. Where most see an exit, others are concerned about an entrance. While advocates have done a sterling job we thought it might be a good idea to build a broader coalition – to gain from the experiences of others.
We're moving into the movie business.
Dear Warner Bros, no doubt you receive many, many letters every day but, before you bin this one, please note that we are offering you an incredible opportunity to make a fortune. This movie idea pitch is unlike anything else you will have been offered.
The 1970s were incredible according to folks who didn't live through the decade. That said, there were aspects of it that still exert a strong hold over people's affections. Most importantly, looking at the stats from recent surveys, it's when a huge load of us began smoking.
Everybody in the world knows that the best television show ever created has, well, erm, we aren't quite sure because we don't watch it. What we do know is that it appeared to be very popular and people are angrier than a right-leaning socialist wasp in a Labour Party conference.

Creamy Parmesan Leek and Mushroom Pasta is a satisfying meatless meal that comes together in under 30 minutes.
Today there was golden sunlight and muddy dog paws and a needle on the thermometer that might have edged past 50. I can see the grass again and the sky is blue and cloudless. The air feels like change, and I couldn't be more ready.
I don't know about all of you, but around here this has felt like the long, long, cold, long, snowy, long, freezing, long, gray (did I mention L-O-N-G??) winter. But these sunny days are reminding me that winter will eventually have to give way to spring. It may not happen overnight. It may be slower than I'd like. But one day I'll be walking through the grass in bare feet, gazing at a flower budding up from the earth, and I'll realize, we made it. Spring is here. And there will be much rejoicing.
Until that day comes, I'm surviving on recipes like this Creamy Parmesan Leek and Mushroom Pasta. I like to think of them as "bridge" recipes. They're still comforting and hearty enough to warm your bones on a cold night, but they have a bit of spring's lightness as well. Meat feels so necessary in the winter when the wind is blowing and seasonal produce is limited. But as the days get longer and warmer and the produce gets brighter and juicier, I love going meatless, which is exactly what our #SundaySupper team is doing today.
This pasta recipe gets it's peek of spring from leeks. I'm new to the leek scene, but after trying them in this recipe I know they're going to be making many more appearances this spring. They have a nice mellow onion flavor that is noticeable, but not overpowering. If you need some guidance for prepping and cleaning the leeks, Natasha's Kitchen has some great step by step photos.
The heartiness of this pasta comes from a rich Parmesan cream sauce. I can't resist a simple cream sauce. It's so luxurious, so velvety, so incredibly satisfying. I'm normally not a huge fan of angel hair pasta, but this sauce is absolutely made for it. It coats the strands so perfectly, you'll have a hard time not slurping them up.
I made this pasta one night after a long day of work. It was one of those I'd-rather-order-takeout nights, but I pushed through and made this recipe. Luckily, it was a breeze to make and we had this made, devoured, and dishes done by 7 PM. You have to understand, this never happens. I was amazed to look at the clock and realize we had several hours of the night left to watch old episodes of Seinfeld work on the bedroom remodel.
There you have it…a 30 minutes, no hassle, satisfying meatless meal to get you through these last winter days. The #SundaySupper team has a lot more meatless meal ideas for you below the recipe. Be sure to check them out!
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 large leeks, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced and rinsed
- 1 lb mushrooms, sliced (I used a mix of button and crimini)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth (or veggie broth for vegetarian)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- ½ tsp salt, or to taste
- ⅛ tsp pepper, or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- Parmesan, for serving (optional)
- 12 oz angel hair pasta
- Cook the pasta according to package directions.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and saute for 2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and saute until softened, about 6-7 minutes. Sitr in the minced garlic and saute until fragrant- 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Stir in the broth and cream. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until thickened slightly. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and parsley, stirring until cheese is melted. Add salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Taste. You may want to add a little bit more salt.
- Add the cooked pasta to the pot and toss to coat. Serve immediately with additional Parmesan, fresh ground pepper, and parsley to top.

I love hot rollers. They are fast and easy. I can put them in my hair in about 3-4 minutes, and then let them cool down while I do my makeup. Once they're out, they just need a quick tousle, a spray of hair spray, and I'm ready to go! However, since my rollers are aging, they don't get as hot. Over the last year or so the change in temperature has been very noticeable, and the result is that my hair falls flat by the end of the day instead of 2-3 days later.
So, I've tried a few new sets of rollers, part of my forever hunt for the perfect, effortless curl. Those other sets haven't impressed me much. There was a set that was much too heavy, one from the same brand as my beloved stand by curlers that simply didn't have enough curlers, so I'm hoping that the third time is the charm!
This roller set from Remington is a bit different, because rather than heating up only the roller, you also heat the clip! When your hair is rolled, you'll get more even and thorough heating, and a longer lasting curl.
You can see that the whole set comes in a double sided container, the roller slot vertically into their spots. There are 12 large 1 1/4" curlers and 8 medium 1" curlers. I haven't measured them, but I do feel like there is a shorter "rolling surface" than other curlers, so I need to use slightly smaller sections of hair. With other curlers I typically need about 18 to curl my hair (I have a lot!), but I use all 20 with this set.
Overall, I do really like this set. It is hotter than others, but doesn't burn my head. Heating the clip as well does make a difference with how long my curls last, I can get 2 days out of my curls. Because the curlers are larger at 1 1/4", the effect is more like a big, curly blow out than when I curl my hair with a curling iron. So, the first day it's curly, the next day my hair is big and voluminous with some waves.
I'm using the set quite frequently, but I would love it if Remington made a similar set with all 1" curlers, and taller/longer curlers so I could get a longer curl. So if someone happens to be reading this review.... please make some!
Here's what my hair looks like right after I take out the curlers. You can see that they add a lot of volume and while there's curl, my hair is mostly really big and bouncy. The curl will calm down quite a bit in about an hour, but the effects will last for a day or two.

Tim Earl of Stirling
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. probably never would have imagined a day when civil rights demonstrations would take place on the Internet, but such a day has arrived.
In the never-ending quest to protect free speech and freedom of the Internet, the international hacktivist collective known as " Anonymous" and others have called for a general strike to take place on the Internet between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. EST on January 18, 2012.
In the never-ending quest to protect free speech and freedom of the Internet, the international hacktivist collective known as " Anonymous" and others have called for a general strike to take place on the Internet between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. EST on January 18, 2012.
Social news aggregator Reddit, online encyclopedia Wikipedia and others will be shutting down for 12 hours on January 18 to protest freedom-choking bills such as the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and PROTECT IP Act (PIPA).
"We're not taking this action lightly. We wouldn't do this if we didn't believe this legislation and the forces behind it were a serious threat to reddit and the Internet as we know it." — Reddit administration team
The SOPA strike is set to occur on the same day that Congress will be hearing witnesses such as Reddit's co-founder, Alexis Ohanian, voice their concerns about SOPA and PIPA before the US House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
"They said 'bring in the nerds,' so I'm headed to DC to testify about SOPA/PIPA." — Alexis Ohanian, Reddit co-founder and technology investor
The online strike is set to continue despite this weekend's statement from the White Housecontending that it would not "support legislation that reduces freedom of expression, increases cybersecurity risk, or undermines the dynamic, innovative global Internet." (Joint statement prepared by: Victoria Espinel, Aneesh Chopra, Howard Schmidt.)
"We have no indication that SOPA is fully off the table. PIPA is still alive and kicking. We need to send Washington a BIG message." — Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia Founder
The Twitter hashtag "#J18" has become the rallying cry for Twitter users who support the January 18 SOPA blackout and have committed to refraining from sending out tweets on that day.
SOPA strikers and their supporters have created various tools for people to show support, such as:
- A Twitter badge
- WordPress plugins and
- "STOP CENSORSHIP" website banner bars (among other things)
Internet advocacy group, Fight For the Future, created a SopaStrike page, where anyone who is interested can see which websites are currently participating in Wednesday's strike.
In the meantime, the powerful media mogul and SOPA-supporter, Rupert Murdoch, has been madly tweeting anti-SOPA messages via his Twitter account, causing Technorati blogger, Stephen Alexander, to speculate: "So just like Oprah Winfrey was sued and had her mouth tamed by the beef industry, perhaps Google could sue Mr. Murdoch and tame his mouth."
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream.
We, the people who use and benefit from the free-flow of information on the Internet, have a dream, too.
We have a dream that the Internet will one day be free from greedy and contentious elements who would co-opt it and corral it toward their own ends.
We have a dream that the Internet will one day be freely accessible to all without fear of reprisals, recriminations, or "indefinite detention."
We have a dream that one day freedom will ring across the Internet and into homes, businesses, governments and enterprises everywhere.
And when that day comes?
Thank God Almighty. We will be free at last.
The blackout of one of the Internet's most-visited places is meant to stop SOPA and PIPA, two controversial anti-piracy bills currently on the table in the US Congress. The bills, if they pass into law, would greatly increase the powers of law enforcement agencies and copyright holders to prosecute online infringement.
The bills would cripple the Internet, effectively killing all websites allowing user-uploaded content, endangering potential whistleblowers and severely damaging online freedom of speech, say its numerous opponents. Those include Internet giants Google, Yahoo, Facebook, AOL, Mozilla Corporation, and the human rights organizations Reporters Without Borders, Human Rights Watch and the ACLU, as well as journalists, lawyers and many others.
If you're as concerned as we are, there's something you can do, too. Click here to find and email your Representative (use the little envelope icon that appears to the right of the picture) and here to find and email your Senators (use the "Web form" link). Tell them you don't support SOPA/PIPA or the politicians who do, and ask them to vote against the legislation if given the opportunity.
Joint US-Israeli 'War Drill' was called off by Netanyahu, to Washington's surprise ~ link ~ I note that now Defka is changing its story. They may be right this time but something still does not feel right about all of this to me. I don't think that the United States has moved two combat mechanized brigades and a aviation brigade into Kuwait, moved thousands of air force troops and our latest high tech air defense missiles into Israel, and three super-carrier battle groups, plus multiple assault carrier battle groups into position off the Strait of Hormuz just 'for the hell of it'. This force, plus the French carrier battle group and the Royal Navy anti-air defense destroyer/s are in place to wage war on Iran/Syria/Lebanon/Palestine/Gaza. In fact the accidental French Air Force jet fighter-bomber collision with a Royal Saudi Air Force F-15 was a eye opening into joint training for NATO nuclear strikes against Iran and Syria. I suspect that the war preparations are on schedule and the rest is psych-ops. Stirling
debkafile's sources disclose exclusively that, contrary to recent reports published in Washington, Jerusalem - and this site too - it was Israel Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, not the Obama administration, who decided to call off the biggest ever joint US-Israeli military exercise Austere Challenge 12 scheduled for April 2012.
Washington was taken aback by the decision. It was perceived as a mark of Israel's disapproval for the administration's apparent hesitancy in going through with the only tough sanctions with any chance of working against Iran's nuclear weapon program: penalizing its central bank and blocking payments for its petroleum exports.
This week, Netanyahu further orchestrated a series of uncharacteristically critical statements by senior ministers: Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon called the Obama administration "hesitant" (Jan. 15), after which Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman urged the Americans to "move from words to deeds" (Jan 16).
Israel ready to strike Iran without Washington's approval? ~ link ~ Both American and Israeli officials say that the decision to postpone a massive joint missile drill scheduled for this spring has nothing to do with hostilities with Iran, although insiders suggest something quite the contrary.
Only last month, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said the planned joint exercise served as the Obama administration's "unprecedented levels of defense cooperation with Israel to back up our unshakable commitment to Israel's security." Just weeks later, however, Netanyahu seems ready to fight Iran on its own.
Russia: An Attack on Tehran Is An Attack On Moscow ~ link ~ When President Kennedy said much the same (an attack on America from Cuba would be considered an attack from the USSR) the World took him very seriously. He meant it! I am concerned that similar Russian warnings are being ignored by the West. We are at a place that is even more dangerous than the Cuban Missile Crisis was almost half a century ago...and that almost ended the human experience! Stirling
Russia has given Iran its bear hug and warns Israel and the West that an attack on Tehran would be considered an attack on Moscow. The threat heightens the prospect of World War III in the event of a military strike on Iran.
"Iran is our neighbor," Russia's outgoing ambassador to NATO, Dmitry Rogozin, told reporters in Brussels. "And if Iran is involved in any military action, it's a direct threat to our security." Kremlin Security Council head Nikolai Patrushev accused Israel of provoking the United States towards war against Iran, the Russian Interfax news agency reported Friday. "But at the same time, we believe that any country has the right to have what it needs to feel comfortable, including Iran," he added.
Russian Missile Forces Hold High Alert Drills ~ link ~ This is a warning...is anyone in the West listening??? Stirling
Russia's Strategic Missile Forces are holding a series of exercises to practice putting road-mobile missile systems on high alert, SMF spokesman Col. Vadim Koval said.
The exercises involve Topol (SS-25 Sikle), Topol-M (SS-27 Sickle B) and Yars (RS-24) mobile systems stationed in central Russia and Siberia.
"SMF units armed with Topol, Topol-M and Yars road-mobile missile systems will practice patrolling, camouflaging and launch preparation procedures during high alert drills from January 16 to February 3," Koval told reporters on Monday.

CSI: Case File #76 and a crazy storm!
Good Evening Bloggers! I hope you've had a great weekend! Ours, has been okay...a little crazy though! We had a freak storm yesterday. We had giant hail balls and a massive downpour made complete with thunder and very close lightening! I normally love thunderstorms, but that one was a bit much...it flooded my aunt's basement, and our church's basement, and a lot of other peoples I'm sure too! It also wrecked our roof! Our roof was going to need to be replaced sooner than later anyway, but now it does for sure! :( So I guess I have to put myself on a scrappy budget now, since we're going to be 8000 dollars poorer!
That's my brother in law standing outside my mom's house who lives just down the road from us! You can't even see his feet! There were manhole covers being blown off and water shooting up from them, and holes in the roads and just craziness! I guess I like a good (calm) thunderstorm lol! Now I know there is such a thing!
Anyway, I'm playing along with CSI this week and I've put their case file at the bottom of this page so you can check it out. I think I've strayed a little far from the colour scheme...it's the same sort of colours...I just got a little pastel-ish...which is weird for me!
This picture is of my adorable little nephew Jaxson. His daddy is the one standing in the flooding road in the picture above.
I couldn't seem to get a decent picture of this layout to save my life, so you'll just have to imagine it in focus! lol
I used an awesome Studio Calico stencil that comes with various pieces that you can put into the circles! I used the heart, the star and the love in the circle mask and then I jazzed them up with some gelatos, a paint brush and a little water!
Here's the case file:
I had a lot of fun getting inky with this layout too! I've been really in the mood to mist and spray and use those fabulous gelatos I've been hoarding for a year now!
Supplies: Patterned Paper: Elle's Studio & Crate Paper. Frames: Crate Paper. Flair: Simple Stories. Washi: Freckled Fawn & Studio Calico. Stencil: Studio Calico. Mist: Dylusions & Mister Huey's. Alphabet Stickers: American Crafts. Faber Castell Gelatos. Ink: Distress and Hero Arts. Stamp: Dylusions. Electronic Die Cutter: Silhouette Cameo.
Well, I should be off to make my little ones come inside and get dried off before bed! They're playing on the trampoline outside with the sprinkler underneath it!
Hopefully if I get my stuff together tonight I will have another post for you tomorrow with our next Use Your Stuff challenge! I haven't even though of a project yet, so hopefully I can git r done ;)~

OLW-2 Crazy Boys (really wordy, but instructional lol)
Good Morning! When I should be cleaning, I'm blogging instead...lol I found this fun blog called
One Little Word
, and they showcase (you guessed it) one word, that they want you to base your creations on. There are tons of fabulous inspiration there too! Lots of mixed media and fun and funky scrapbooking...so it's right up my alley these days :) They're also doing a design team call, and I thought this would be a great team to be a part of, so I'm applying! Wish me luck!
Anyway, their OLW this time is: Crazy. Now that word is resonating with me in many ways these days!! They have a quote up on the OWL page that cracked me up and reminded me a lot of myself:
"You have no idea how crazy I am, I should be wearing yellow Caution tape, I'm that bonkers"
Robin Benway, The Extraordinary Secrets of April, May, & June
I'm seriously considering purchasing some yellow caution tape! Even though my life is so crazy lately, I decided to actually scrapbook about my 2 youngest boys and their gumboot escapades, because it really cracked me up, and although these two are the source of a lot of my craziness, they actually make my life whole, so scrapping about them actually helps me put things into a better perspective and calms the crazy for a while :)
I took this picture a couple weeks ago when it was nice and hot out and the boys were dressed in shorts and t-shirts, but when it came time to put some footwear on, they both insisted they wear their gumboots. I couldn't help take a picture of these 2 crazy boys that I love so much!
I've been really into getting messy with inks and paints lately, and I remembered that I bought a whole bunch of faber castell gelatos a while ago, and I've really never used them! So, to start off this layout, I misted my page (which didn't take kindly to it...I think next time I will apply a layer of gesso first? might help with all the moisture...any of you mixed media gurus out there have any tips?) then I took an orange gelato and a turquoise one and coloured a few lines then smeared them with my finger to blend them in. I didn't blend the colours together though, because ya know what blue and orange makes and I didn't want brown! lol The water just helps spread the colour around and make it look more fluid. I also sprayed a little bit of Dylusions in dark blue (sprayed from far away to get the faint misted look) and some of my neon yellow Mister Huey's really close to the page to pool it up and drip it down. I wanted to add a little texture to the base of my page too, so I added a little bit of drywall tape.
I got a whole bunch of these photo overlays from Crate Paper with my
May Paper Bakery kit
. I really love these overlays because they have a bunch that are kind of dark, then these ones have little splashes of colour around them and I thought they'd be perfect for this layout. I decided to use them as a design element instead of over a photo and I really like the way they turned out :)
before I put my paper layer down I added a few strips of washi. I pulled out my 6x6 pads for this layout. I used one from Crate Paper (the pier), another Basic Grey (Hey Girl) and one from We R Memory Keepers (On the Boardwalk). I cut out the chevron pattern from one of the 6x6 blocks then just layered the rest of them.
This "orange flavored" card was from the Basic Grey clippings little paper pack. Caleb's favourite colour is orange so I thought it would go great for this layout. I put an overlay on it and stitched it together with my sewing machine. I also stitched the triangles that point to my title on their for a little added texture.
I topped everything off with some wood veneer from Studio Calico, and a cute pink and orange camera that came in my Studio Calico kit, and some fun puffy stickers from Amy Tangerine.
I used this sketch from
The Paper Bakery
for this layout:
There you have it! Now, that I've procrastinated long enough, I really have to go clean my house!! My husband will be home from school tomorrow for good! I'm so excited that he doesn't have to go back to Prince George anymore!

Be Your Beautiful Self
I am feeling so great tonight as I post this! There is definitely something therapeutic about getting all inky and messy and just creating art for no one else but yourself! I just LOVE IT! If you have been following my blog, then you'll know that I am (slowly) making a "This is Me" album. I decided to make a section for my favourite quotes (this is probably going to be a big section, because I have a lot of favs!)
This week at
Use Your Stuff,
Joy has this pretty (and yummy) looking photo for inspiration for us! Take anything that inspires you about this picture and create something with it and link it up!!
I was inspired by the bright colours and fun patterns in the background! This page started out as a piece of kraft chipboard from my SN@P album. I covered it in Gesso, then sprayed a few different colours of tattered angels glimmer mist and a shot of blue dylusions mist here and there. Then I used a brayer and covered the page with a towel and rolled over it with my brayer.
Then I added some Tim Holtz tissue paper and some drywall tape in bits and pieces for some fun texture...then more Gesso...then more mist...then I used a dylusions mask and some more mist...
I finished off the layers with some pink and yellow Distress paint. The best part about the Distress Paint is that it's like all the other Distress products and it's reactive with water...so I sprayed it with some water to blend it and I just looooove the way it blends so nicely with everything else, yet stands out too!
My final layer was the title which was stamped with a Studio Calico alphabet stamp, and some wood veneers on a Basic Grey tag that I tore the top off of. I've been wanting to use this fun ruffled navy fabric that came in my
Paper Bakery
kit since I got it and I knew this was the perfect finishing touch paired with a little washi! I finished the whole page off with a fun little grungy circles stamp from Dina Wakley stamped with some CTMH blue ink (can't remember the actual blue)
I must say, I'm very happy with the way this turned out :) I can't wait to start adding all my fav quotes to this section of my book!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Don't forget to play along with us this week @

Random Facts...
Well, the husband just left for his last week of school, so now it's time for me to go play in my craft room! I just wanted to quickly share another page I made for my "This is Me" album. I've been plugging away at it, slowly but surely :)
This page was just full of random things about me that I thought might be worth jotting down :) I'm finding it a little hard to think about things about myself that I want to share...
I used a hero arts background text stamp for this page, then I used a stencil I got from The Paper Bakery in the background. I misted it on a different page, then turned the stencil over onto this page to get the opposite effect here.
I used some Inka Gold on the "random facts" wood veneer to bling it up a little, then scattered some sequins here and there. I have been playing around with adhering sequins and if you aren't going to sew them directly onto your project, then I do believe that either glossy accents, or claudine hellmuth matte medium is the best way to stick em down! Just in case you've been wanting to use them, but didn't know how to stick em (that was my problem with them for a long time!)
I have a little close up of the list of random facts...sorry for the blurry image, I was being a little lazy and took the pictures with my iPhone...most of them turned out ok...but I realized the last one was a little hazy...but I want to go and play, so I'm not going to fix it! HAAHAHA!!
I'm actually going to go work a bit on this album right now, so hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with another little share...before I bring my computer back to the shop and lay the smack down on those computer guys who can't seem to fix my brand new computer!! ARRRGGG!!!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving me some love! I really appreciate all the sweet comments!!

Paper Bakery Sketch Challenge #5
Hello Hello Bloggers!
I'm cutting it down to the wire on getting Father's Day cards done and getting this entry in for
The Paper Bakery
sketch challenge! It's done in an hour! lol
I hadn't really planned on even using this sketch this afternoon when I sat down to make my FIL'S Father's Day card, but it popped into my head when I was thinking about the design of it, and I thought it would be perfect! It's quite altered from the original sketch, but the inspiration definitely came from it :)
I used my Cameo for the die cut title and frame (can you tell I desperately needed to change my blade?!)
The second card I have here is my husband's Father's Day card. Most of the card was made using my kit from The Paper Bakery, except the Tim Holtz circley car stamp, the gears and the Tim Holtz Kraft Resist paper. When I saw this card that says: "Me
I thought it would be perfect for a card for us! Their also just so happened to be a die cut number 4 (coincidentally how many kids we're very close to having!). So I thought it would be fun to play with that! I used one of the Crate Paper photo overlays and stapled that over top of most of my cluster, but then I glued a cute little wood veneer ampersand by Studio Calico to the line and then added the number 4. So now it says "me plus you and 4 equals family"
I cut the teeny gears with my Cameo AFTER I changed my blade...what a difference a sharp blade makes!!
I also used my fringe shears to add to my border strips and bring in some of that orange colour from the gears :)
Well, there you have it! I'm off to go help my boys get settled into their "sleepover". All three of them are going to sleep in the same room and play and have fun :)
I'm going to enter these cards into the following challenges:
Use It Tuesday
: Masculine
The second card is going into the challenge at
Simon Says Stamp
: Transport

Be Bold
Good Morning! I have a layout to share with you today that I actually made last night...I wasn't planning on doing any scrapbooking last night. I actually wanted to veg out on the computer and go to bed early....then I saw
Shimelle's blog post
following the sketch I have below, and how to do a starburst. I've seen starburst tutorials before and I've really wanted to use them on a layout, but I just have never gotten around to it. Well last night I was apparently inspired to break out my scraps from my last layout and try out this sunburst technique once and for all!
I also decided that I would use this layout to start Summer Camp early!! If you haven't already signed up for
Summer Camp with the Scrapbook Nerds
, you need to go do it now! There's an early bird challenge up and I can't tell you about it....you have to
to find out what it is!! Can you guess from my layout? I bet you can't!! Muaahahahaha!!
Here's what I learned: As someone who doesn't like to follow instructions...I still should have followed them!! LOL Shimelle has a tutorial posted
and it's a really great one...I just thought I could do it without using a template...and I did, but I think it took me waaaaay more time than it would have if I would have just used a stinkin template!! LOL oh well, lesson learned!
These pictures are from "Pink Day". The school has an anti bullying awareness day every year and this year they said that the class who wore the most pink would get a pizza party. That was all Ethan needed for a little pink motivation!
This layout was sooooo out of my comfort zone!! The colours and that sunburst were something that are totally new to me!! I hardly ever use pastels and I NEVER use light pink cardstock as a base!! I'm really happy with how it turned out though!!
The journaling says: "Ethan's school has a "Pink Day" every year where they dress up in pink for anti bullying awareness. They were told that the class who wore the most pink would win a pizza party. That was enough for Ethan to be all over the pink clothes and accessories around his Aunty Jayden's room! The whole school wore so much pink that they all won the pizza party!"
And here's a close up of my sunburst. I separated it with some Lawn Fawn twine...I think it turned out pretty good :)
Well, that's all for today! I hope you have a fabulous day! It's looking like it's going to be awesome weather here!! Yay! Finally! I have to say I'm getting a little sick of the rain (my stinkin grass grows way too fast with all that water!!)
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! I really appreciate it!!

In a recent Order, Judge Gregory M. Sleet granted defendants' motion for leave to amend its answer to include allegations that the asserted patent is unenforceable due to inequitable conduct. Merck Sharp & Dohme B.V. v. Warner Chilcott Co., LLC, C.A. No. 13-2088-GMS (D. Del. Jul. 10, 2015). As Judge Sleet explained, plaintiff opposed the motion solely on the grounds that "permitting the defendants to include such allegations would be futile." Id. at 1. Judge Sleet was unpersuaded by plaintiff's argument, noting that "plaintiff essentially asks the court to evaluate the merits of the defendants' inequitable conduct accusations, pointing to specific statements in the record and explaining why they do not evidence deception. These arguments are untimely and better suited for the summary judgment stage." Id. at 2. Judge Sleet found that "the court cannot say that the defendants' allegations are baseless," and ultimately concluded that "defendants have adequately alleged the necessary elements of inequitable conduct." Id.

Judge Robinson denies motion to transfer venue to Southern District of Texas
In a recent Memorandum Opinion, Judge Sue L. Robinson denied defendants' motion to transfer venue to the Southern District of Texas. Quest Integrity USA, LLC v. Clean Harbors Industrial Services, Inc., C.A. Nos. 14-1482, 14-1483-SLR (D. Del. Jul. 8, 2015). As Judge Robinson explained, plaintiff "is a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the State of Texas and having its principal place of business in Seattle, Washington." Judge Robinson further explained that "Defendant Clean Harbors is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and having its principal place of business in Norwell, Massachusetts," and "Defendant Cokebusters is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and having its principal place of business in Houston, Texas." Id. at 1-2
In denying the motion to transfer, Judge Robinson first explained that because "'convenience' is separately considered in the transfer analysis, the court declines to elevate defendants' choice of venue over the choice of the plaintiff." Id. at 4. Judge Robinson found that "plaintiffs have historically been accorded the privilege of choosing their preferred venue for pursuing their claims remains a significant factor." Id. Further, as Judge Robinson noted, "Defendants admit to engaging in infringing conduct in Delaware," and "[t]hat fact negates the argument that the alleged infringement is focused in the Texas Gulf Coast region." Id. Judge Robinson went on to observe that "[a]s is usual in these cases, the convenience factors do not weigh in favor of transfer because discovery is a local event and trial is a limited event." Id. at 8. Additionally, as Judge Robinson explained, "[a]lthough Delaware is not the locus of any party's business activities, it is a neutral forum." Id. Judge Robinson thus concluded that transfer was not warranted in the interests of justice. Id.
Judge Andrews grants in part § 101 motion to dismiss.
Judge Richard G. Andrews recently granted in part a defendant's motion to dismiss for failure to claim patent-eligible subject matter under § 101. Pragmatus Telecom, LLC v. Genesys Telecomm. Labs., Inc., C.A. No. 14-26-RGA (D. Del. July 9, 2015). At issue were four patents sharing a common specification relating to "controlling communication between customers and organizations using certain computer systems." As Judge Andrews explained, the "specification demonstrates that the claims [of the purportedly representative '314 Patent] are directed to the abstract idea of connecting customers to call centers." Id. at 11. In describing the claims, the Court drew an analogy to a customer calling a business and identifying himself, then dialing certain numbers to be transferred either to "help" or an "operator" or to leave a voicemail. Id. at 12-13. Judge Andrews explained, "[t]o allow such a claim would preempt the fundamental concept of customers communicating with businesses, and more specifically customers communicating with call center agents." Id. at 14. The Court added, "the claim does not contain an inventive concept to transform the abstract idea into patent-eligible subject matter." Id. The defendant sought to also invalidate the three other patents, based on the invalidation of the purportedly representative '314 Patent, but Judge Andrews explained, "the Court will only deal with the patent eligibility of the claims of the '314 Patent. If Defendants wish to challenge the other patents under § 101, they must actually provide analysis for this position." Id. at 9.
Judge Stark Denies Attempt to Extend Stay Pending IPR to Include Appeal to the Federal Circuit
In late 2013, Chief Judge Stark granted a motion to stay this case pending an inter partes review by the PTO based, in part, on the argument that the stay would not exceed 18 months, given the statutory deadlines for IPRs, and the defendant's withdrawal of its prior opposition after the IPR was instituted. Zoll Medical Corp. v. Respironics, Inc., C.A. No. 12-1778-LPS, Memo. Or. at 1-2 (D. Del. July 8, 2015). Recently, the PTO confirmed patentability of eight claims of the patent-in-suit, with one claim having been cancelled in the IPR. Plaintiff Zoll sought to lift the stay of this litigation and Defendant Respironics opposed, arguing that it would appeal the finding of patentability to the Federal Circuit. Id.
As Judge Stark explained, "[u]nderstandably, Zoll now wishes to proceed with the litigation it filed more than 2 ½ years ago . . . . The proper exercise of the Court's discretion under these circumstances is to lift the stay and proceed with the litigation, just as the parties (and the Court) envisioned at the time the unopposed motion to stay was granted. The IPR proceeding is complete and the stay has been in place nearly 19 months. Respironics has pointed to no new, unforeseeable events to cause the Court to depart from the path that was set when the stay was imposed. As Zoll puts it, 'Having taken its shot in the USPTO and failed, Respironics should not be able to preclude Zoll from pursuing its claims in this court for an indeterminate period of time.'" Id. at 2.
Respironics' appeal to the Federal Circuit was not a persuasive reason to keep the stay in place: "The pendency of an appeal from the IPR, and the possibility that the Federal Circuit may reverse the PTO (and thereby simplify this litigation by, presumably, making it disappear), is not, in and of itself, a sufficient basis to make the patentee here continue to wait to enforce patent rights that it currently holds." "Had Respironics initially been seeking a stay that would extend to the period during which any appeal from the IPR would be pending, it is likely Zoll would have continued to oppose the motion, and the Court's calculus might very well have differed too." Id. at 2-3.
Judge Robinson grants motion to set aside entry of default
In a declaratory judgment action brought by Draeger alleging non-infringement and invalidity, Judge Sue L. Robinson granted My Health's motion to set aside the clerk's entry of default and motion for extension of time to answer, and denied Draeger's motion for default judgment as moot. Draeger Medical Systems, Inc. v. My Health, Inc., C.A. No. 15-248-SLR (D. Del. July 1, 2015). Draeger had filed the action after My Health's affiliate had contacted it to potentially negotiate a license for the patent-in-suit. My Health had not responded to Draeger's complaint, but explained that its general counsel had been suffering from neurological problems at the time process was served and had no memory of seeing the complaint. Id. at 2-3.
The Court granted My Health's motion. While Draeger argued that it would suffer prejudice "if the default is set aside, given that it is a developing company and the 'specter of litigation' is detrimental to its sales, market share, business decisions, and investment from third parties," the Court concluded that these concerns were "more suited to establishing subject matter jurisdiction than precluding litigation on the merits." Id. at 4-5. The Court also rejected Draeger's arguments that My Health's conduct was willful or in bad faith, accepting as credible that the general counsel's health problems had caused the lack of response, especially where Draeger had rejected My Health's request for a short extension acompanyied with an explanation as to these "extenuating medical circumstances." Id. at 6.
Magistrate Judge Fallon Recommends Denial of Transfer and Judgment on Pleadings, Grant of Motion to Dismiss Contributory Infringement
Magistrate Judge Fallon recently issued a report and recommendation in litigation between Merck and Teva over Teva's proposed generic version of mometasone furoate nasal spray, marketed by Merck as Nasonex®. Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp. v. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc., C.A. No. 14-874-SLR-SRF, Report and Recommendation at 1-2 (D. Del. July 1, 2015). Judge Fallon addressed several motions at once, recommending denying Teva's motion to transfer to the District of New Jersey based on the Third Circuit's Jumara factors, which indicated that Delaware was "a legitimate forum based on Teva's state of incorporation" and would not be unduly burdensome (id. at 3-8); denying as moot Teva's motion for judgment on the pleadings (id. at 16); and granting Teva's motion to dismiss Count II of the complaint with leave to amend (id. at 8-16).
Count II of the complaint dealt with Merck's claim of contributory infringement. As the Court explained, "[p]ursuant to Merck's conversion theory of contributory infringement, Teva would be liable for infringement even if the generic copy of Nasonex® nasal spray sold by Teva contains only anhydrous mometasone furoate, because at least some of the mometasone furoate contained in Teva's product converts to the allegedly infringing monohydrate form during the proposed shelf life of the product." Id. at 2-3.
Teva argued that the complaint did not include sufficient allegations supporting Merck's "conversion theory," which was more fully expressed in its briefs, including that Teva had knowledge of such a conversion or that its product was made especially for such a conversion. Judge Fallon rejected this argument, however, finding that the contributory infringement theory met the plausibility requirement of Twombly and Iqbal. Id. at 12-14. Similarly, Judge Fallon found that Merck had adequately plead the absence of a substantial non-infringing use and adequately identified a component of the invention as allegedly infringing. Id. at 14-15.
Judge Fallon agreed, however, with Teva's assertion that "Merck's cause of action for contributory infringement is facially deficient because it fails to specifically reference or make factual allegations regarding materiality," i.e. that the complaint does not set out that the allegedly infringing component constitutes a material part of the invention as required by § 271(c). Thus, "Merck's cause of action for contributory infringement is facially deficient and should be dismissed on this basis." Id. at 11-12. Judge Fallon recommended, however, that dismissal be with leave to amend the complaint to address the materiality requirement. Id. at 15-16.
Judge Andrews finds terms indefinite at claim construction
In Andrulis Pharmaceuticals Corp. v. Celgene Corp., C.A. No. 13-1644-RGA (D. Del. June 26, 2015), Judge Richard G. Andrews construed terms in claim 2 of U.S. Patent No. 6,140,346, finding three sets of related terms to be indefinite. The patent relates to a "novel method for treating cancers with thalidomide alone or in combination with other antiangiogenic and anti-cancer agents." Id. at 1 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
The terms found indefinite were: "enhanced" and "enhanced combination"; "enhanced therapeutically-effective amounts of thalidomide"; and "said neoplastic diseases are sensitive to said enhanced combination." Defendant argued that "enhanced" required degrees that the patent never articulated. Id. at 7. The Court found the "central issue" to be whether "enhanced means greater than additive," as Plaintiff claimed the addition of "enhanced" was needed for the claim to overcome prior art, "or whether it renders the claim indefinite." Id.
The Court concluded that the term was indeed indefinite. There was no evidence narrowing its meaning, id. at 8, and the patent provided very little guidance as to the meaning, id. at 8-9. The Court also found that the prosecution history did not support Plaintiffs' contention that "enhanced" necessarily meant "greater than additive" in light of the prosecution history. Id. at 9. In fact, "[t]he prosecution history demonstrates that the applicant did not simply adopt the examiner's position that the claims require a greater than additive effect." Id. at 10. "It cannot be the case that 'enhanced' is merely a synonym for 'greater than additive' when read within the context of the examiner's rejection, and the applicant's amendment and response." Id. The inventor's own testimony supported the interpretation that "enhanced" was not synonymous with "additive effect," id. at 12, although the Court did not find the inventors', or proffered experts', testimony on this subject particularly probative. See id. at 12, 13. It concluded that "[b]ecause 'enhanced' can mean less than additive, additive, or greater than additive, the term is indefinite because it does not inform a person skilled in art of the invention with reasonable certainty of its meaning in the patent-in-suit." Id. at 13.
As to "enhanced therapeutically-effective amounts of thalidomide," the Court concluded that its "grammatical structure adds a second reason for a finding of indefiniteness." Id. at 14. Plaintiffs attempted to argue "enhanced" did not modify "therapeutically-effective amounts of thalidomide," but the Court found this would result in "grammatical gymnastics." Id. at 15. The larger term was indefinite because it was "unclear what an 'enhanced' amount of thalidomide . . . would be." Id. The Court also found the third term "said neoplastic diseases are sensitive to said enhanced combination" indefinite "[f]or the reasons offered int eh analysis of the [other two] terms." Id. at 17.
The Court also construed the terms "administering" and "neoplastic diseases."
Judge Burke denies motion to stay pending IPR without prejudice to renew after the PTAB decides whether to institute the IPR proceeding
Magistrate Judge Christopher J. Burke recently denied a declaratory judgment-defendant's motion to stay pending the outcome of a petition for inter partes review. NuVasive, Inc. v. Neurovision Medical Products, Inc., C.A. No. 15-286-LPS-CJB (D. Del. June 23, 2015). The IPR petition sought to invalidate all claims of one of the two patents-in-suit, U.S. Patent No. 8,634,894. Judge Burke denied the stay because the PTAB's decision on the petition was imminent, "coming well before the parties will have engaged in time-consuming and costly discovery and claim construction-related activity in this case." Id. at 3. Moreover, Judge Burke noted that the PTAB's decision, whether to deny or grant the petition, will "allow for some additional clarity in the record"; and that it is "the District's Court's preference that . . . cases filed by a plaintiff should move forward–even in the face of early-filed motions that have not yet to be fully resolved." Id. at 4-5. Continue reading
Judge Andrews grants motion to dismiss indirect infringement claims
In a recent Order, Judge Richard G. Andrews granted a defendant's motion to dismiss three indirect infringement counts for failure to plausibly allege the existence of any direct infringers. Acceleration Bay LLC v. Activision Blizzard Inc., C.A. No. 15-228-RGA (D. Del. June 22, 2015). As Judge Andrews explained, "[t]he allegations of direct infringement in the indirect infringement accounts seem designed to obscure what Plaintiff's theory is rather than to elucidate it." The Court rejected the argument that the counts should be dismissed, alternatively, for failure to plausibly allege knowledge, explaining that this "seems much ado about nothing" since "were this Defendant's only argument, all it would result in would be a limitation of the scope of the indirect infringement counts." The dismissal was without prejudice.
Judge Bumb considers Section 285 fee award
In Bayer Cropscience AG, et al. v. Dow Agrosciences LLC, C.A. No. 12-256-RMG-JS (D. Del. June 18, 2015), Judge Renée Marie Bumb, sitting by designation, made determinations, based on Defendant's attorney's "almost entirely unredacted" billing statements, of fees to be charged against Plaintiffs to Defendant under 35 U.S.C. § 285. Defendant requested over $6 million in fees. Plaintiffs requested that Defendant produce completely unredacted records, and requested a reduction in the fees of at least $1.3 million. The Court ultimately reduced the fee award by approximately $170K, id. at 86-87, and rejected Plaintiffs' request for unredacted records, id. at 86.
Having reviewed each of the contested billing entries (redacted from the public version of this opinion), the Court rejected a number of Plaintiffs' contentions that bills for various items, including preparation of key declarations, attendance at summary judgment hearings, getting attorneys "up to speed" for an appeal, and substantial document review, were excessive, redundant, or unnecessary and thus unreasonable. See, e.g., id. at 13, 21, 23-24, 31-32, 59-60. The Court also rejected Plaintiffs' contention as "baseless" that it was unreasonable for Defendant to have hired lead counsel from New York and California where it could have hired lead and local counsel from Delaware, id. at 26, as well as its argument that Defendant should have utilized local counsel at various locations for depositions "in a case of this complexity," id. at 83. For several issues, the Court observed that it would have been helpful for Plaintiffs to provide it with how much time Plaintiffs' attorneys had billed to these tasks, for comparison. See, e.g., 31, 76.
For other items, however, the Court did reduce fees. For example, the Court reduced fees involving "seemingly excessive edits to" a summary judgment motion and a motion for fees. Id. at 18, 81-82. "While attorney review and editing are important, the Court has attempted to reasonably adjust the time to address Bayer's legitimate concerns that it should not have to pay for excessive, multiple attorneys' reviews." Id. at 18. The Court further reduced some amounts for legitimate expenses where it concluded, for example, that the number of attorneys who billed to a task or attended a hearing appeared unnecessary. See, e.g., id. at 22-23, 25. Continue reading

Write Your Own Review
You're reviewing: 24" #3 Natural Wave Flip In Human Hair Extension [FRHNWA2403]
Flip In Hair Extension is one of the most amazing, fun and innovative products you will love to wear! Using 100% Indian Remy Human Hair, easy to wear without damaging your natural hair.The great advantage with Flip In Hair is that unlike traditional hair extension systems, you don't need to spend hours having your new hair fitted. No glue, weaving, clips or tape required! The hair is attached to a barely visible wire that is easy to hide with your own hair. Flip In Hair takes less than one minute to fit and literally one second to remove.
Keep your hair and scalp clean! When sweat and dirt build up your hair tangles. Use a good quality shampoo and conditioner. Detangle your hair first from the ends to the roots before shampooing. Wash your hair gentle in a downward motion (from the roots to the ends). When you're done rinse your hair thoroughly.Condition your hair after every wash. Dry your hair gently, don't rub it with a towel but move in a downward motion from roots to ends. Gently detangle your hair.
After you get your hair extensions it is best to wait 48 hours before you wash your hair.
It is better to avoid heat. Heat is your one of your hair's biggest enemy, the more you use it, the shorter your hair extensions will last. Be careful with the use of blow dryers, flat irons and curling irons. It is best to let your hair dry naturally.
DON'T sleep on wet hair. A good habit is to tie your hair together in a ponytail to prevent tangling as much as possible.
It is best to store the human hair in it's original container. However, you can store the hair in a plastic bag.To keep the desired curl pattern, you may want to set the hair on rollers that conform to the curl size you wish to maintain before storing in plastic.
