1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a floor panel and to a method of laying a floor panel.
2. Background Description
WO 01/75247 A1 discloses a floor panel which, on a first side edge, has connecting means for locking in the transverse and vertical directions. These locking means are arranged on the longitudinal side of the panel and bring about locking by the connecting means being introduced and pivoted into a corresponding recess of a second panel. The transverse side of the panel has two snap-in hooks which, when the panels are laid, are intended to engage in corresponding undercuts of an adjacent panel and to hinder the vertical movement between the laid panels. The two snap-in hooks are located vertically one above the other.
The disadvantage with such a profile is the fact that, in order to ensure a minimal joint on the surface of the panel, the connecting means on the longitudinal side have to be designed such that there is prestressing in the connection since, otherwise, there is too great a gap between two laid panels, and dirt and moisture can penetrate therein, which results in the panel core swelling up. Furthermore, prestressing within the profile has the disadvantage that the panels are difficult to lay if this prestressing is too great. It is also disadvantageous that pivoting about an axis parallel to the first side edge can easily take place since the tongue and recess is designed in the form of a circle arc.
Furthermore, DE 29 16 482 A1 discloses a rectangular panel which is intended for a floor covering and has connecting means for a groove/tongue connection of two adjacent panels which allows the panels to be laid such that they are secured against displacement. The disadvantage here is the risk that the connection between two panels can easily be released in an undesirable manner.
Taking this prior art as the departure point, the object of the invention is to provide a panel which allows straightforward and secure laying and, at the same time, realizes a minimal joint between two panels.
This object is achieved according to the invention by a floor panel having the features of claim 1. The methods of laying such a panel allow quick and straightforward laying, the durable latching between the panels being ensured.
Advantageous configurations and developments of the invention are given in the dependent subclaims. The panels could also be used as wall or ceiling panels or as structural panels or the like.
Providing corresponding form-fitting elements on a front shoulder side and a wall which adjoins an undercut and a bearing region achieves the situation where additional locking is produced in the vertical direction when these form-fitting elements, in the installed state, engage one inside the other. A second locking point in the vertical direction makes it possible for an effective connection already to be carried out successfully by introduction and pivoting-in movements about a first side edge. The tongue and the grooves themselves need not be designed such that there is prestressing between the panels, with the result that the profile as a whole is subjected to less loading when the panels are laid. This additionally results in the laying operation as such being simplified. Designing the underside of the tongue and the top side of the bottom lip parallel to the top side of the panels allows one group of panels to bear over a large surface area on the other panels, with the result that there is low surface pressure prevailing in the groove/tongue connection and only a very small vertical offset of the panels in relation to one another can be realized.
A development provides that the form-fitting element on the wall is a protrusion and that on the front shoulder side is a corresponding recess, these having been produced by a corresponding milling-out operation.
For locking in the vertical direction on the first side edge, it is provided that, in the installed state, a top side of the tongue butts against an underside of the top lip, in order to bring about further form-fitting locking.
A development of the invention provides that a tongue is formed on the first side edge, the tongue extending in the longitudinal direction of the side edge, and a recess which corresponds to the tongue is formed on the opposite side edge, the tongue being designed such that locking takes place by an introduction movement into the recess of the second panels and a pivoting-in movement about an axis parallel to the first side edge. Designing the connecting elements on the first side edge as a so-called pivoting profile allows a straightforward and secure laying and effective locking in the vertical and transverse directions. As a result of doing away with elastic deformation during laying of the panels by means of a pivoting-in movement, the material structure of the panels is maintained and good strength of the connection is ensured. Overall, it is possible to execute more stable locking via such a pivoting-in profile, with the same amount of force being exerted, during laying of the panels.
Designing the recess as a groove with a top lip and a bottom lip ensures that the panels which are to be laid are positioned securely with respect to one another, with the result that it is possible to achieve a minimal vertical offset of the panels, this being a quality feature of the floor panels. The tongue can be latched in the recess in the transverse direction, the tongue and the recess having a wedge-shaped contour in cross section in order to allow easy introduction and to achieve good self-centering of the tongue in the groove.
In order to accommodate any abraded material which may be produced during laying of the first side edges, without this material forcing the panels apart from one another, the tongue and the recess are designed such that, in the installed state, a gap is present between the front region of the tongue and that region of the recess which adjoins the top lip, it being possible for the abraded material to collect in the gap, and the latter serving as a clearance for the two panels in relation to one another. The gap tapers in the direction of the front shoulder of the bottom lip in order to provide a smooth transition between the full-surface-area abutment regions and free space for movement and for collecting abraded material. Any abraded material present may likewise be accommodated in a free space which is formed by an undercut between the tongue and the top side of the panels.
The distal end of the tongue is designed vertically and serves as a termination of the first side edge. Correspondingly, the groove base is likewise designed perpendicularly to the top side, this making it possible for the panels to be positioned to good effect in the transverse direction.
Form-fitting elements for locking in the vertical direction with a further panel are formed on a third side edge, which runs at an angle to the first side edge, these form-fitting elements being spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction and in the vertical direction on two spaced-apart, essentially vertically oriented walls. This results in two spatially separated locking locations on the third side edge, in particular the transverse side, and this ensures more secure locking of panels which have been positioned against one another and laid. Arranging the form-fitting elements on two different walls increases the stability of the connection as a whole and prevents deformation and abrasion of the form-fitting elements due to a plurality of form-fitting elements arranged one behind the other sliding on one another. This ensures that the locking is effective.
In one configuration of the invention, the third side edge has a step-like milled relief which starts from the underside and has an inner wall and an outer wall. In each case one form-fitting element which extends in the transverse direction is formed on these walls, preferably milled out of the same, and these engage in corresponding undercuts of a step-like milled relief which starts from the top side and belongs to the second panels which are to be connected. The step-like milled relief which starts from the top side likewise has an inner wall and an outer wall, on which the corresponding undercuts are formed, with the result that there may be form-fitting locking in the vertical direction on the third side edge.
The step-like milled relief which starts from the underside has a shoulder which projects in the direction of the underside and forms an essentially horizontally oriented head surface, this shoulder providing effective locking in the transverse direction perpendicular to the third side edge. The essentially horizontally oriented head surface serves for setting the minimal vertical offset and constitutes a relatively large bearing surface for the introduction of vertically acting forces.
The walls of the shoulder are oriented at an acute angle in relation to the head surface, which results either in easy introduction into a corresponding recess of the corresponding milled relief of the second panels or else, in the case of an undercut being formed in relation to the head surface, in an additional locking action.
It has been found that a transverse extent of the head surface in a range of 2 mm to 6 mm provides very good durability and a very good locking action, the head surface preferably having 0.25 to 0.4 times the overall transverse extent of the step-like milled relief.
Particularly effective and straightforward locking on the third side edge is achieved when a form-fitting element projects horizontally beyond the termination edge of the top side. It may be expedient here for a recess, which undercuts the termination edge of the panels, to be arranged between the top side and the projecting form-fitting element, in order to accommodate any possible abraded material or deforming material of the panels, with the result that it is possible for the panels to be laid as accurately as possible with a minimal gap width since there is no abraded or deformed material performing a blocking action.
The fourth side edge of the panels, which is located opposite the third side edge, has a step-like milled relief which starts from the top side and has a shoulder which projects in the direction of the top side. This shoulder likewise has an essentially horizontally oriented head surface, the bottom region of the outer shoulder wall containing an undercut which corresponds with the corresponding form-fitting element of the inner wall of the side edge which is to be accommodated. Arranging the recess in the bottom region of the outer shoulder wall increases the effectiveness of the locking.
One development provides that a horizontal base surface is formed between the inner shoulder wall and the inner wall of the milled relief, said base surface being designed such that, when the panels have been laid, the head surface rests on the base surface and the top sides of the panels are located in a single plane, which means that there is only a minimal vertical offset, if any at all, between the panels. The interaction of horizontal base surfaces and head surfaces allows particularly precise positioning and setting of the vertical offset, and the angling tendency of adjacent panels is reduced, which increases the locking strength.
The inner shoulder wall of the milled relief which starts from the top side runs parallel to, or at a shallower angle than, the corresponding inner shoulder wall of the shoulder which engages in the laid state, in order either to bring about precise abutment or to provide a movement component for the two panels in the transverse direction toward one another.
An additional locking action is achieved by the inner shoulder wall forming an undercut in relation to the head surface of the corresponding shoulder.
In order to bring about particularly straightforward laying, the upwardly projecting shoulder of the milled relief which starts from the top side, rather than being formed over the entire length of the third side edge, is milled off, or not formed, down to the base surface, in particular at an end region of the third side edge which is oriented in the direction of the first side edge, which is provided with a tongue. The removal or non-formation of the projecting shoulder facilitates the pivoting-in movement about the axis parallel to the first side edge, with the result that a blocking action by the form-fitting elements only takes place when the panels which are adjacent to one another on the third and fourth side edges are located at an acute angle in relation to one another. This means that it is only necessary to cover a short distance in the vertical direction in order for the panels to be fully locked on the third and fourth side edges.
A development of the invention provides that at least one tongue is formed on the third side edge, which runs at an angle to the first side edge, and at least one groove with a first lip and a second lip is formed on the opposite, fourth side edge, in each case at least one recess which runs parallel to the top side being arranged on the tongue and at least on one of the lips. The recesses are arranged in relation to one another such that, when the panels have been correctly connected to one another, they form a channel for accommodating a separate locking element. This configuration makes it possible to use a conventional tongue/groove configuration for locking in the vertical direction, as have been used for decades for floor panels which are adhesively bonded to one another. The locking in the vertical direction is brought about by the locking element being pushed in, this resulting in stress-free and thus straightforward installation of the third and/or fourth side edge of a panel. It is likewise the case that the profile is not damaged and the profile is easy and cost-effective to produce.
The recesses are preferably congruent to one another, with the result that it is possible to use a symmetrical locking element, which is likewise cost-effective to produce. It is advantageous, in particular, if the channel formed by the recesses is cylindrical since the full symmetry of the channel allows the locking element to be pushed in particularly easily. Triangular or quadrilateral and polygonal X-shaped or V-shaped channels are envisaged, and suitable, as an alternative. If the channel is of non-round cross section, an interlocking effect is established once the locking element has been pushed in, with the result that it is possible to increase the transmittable forces at the connecting location.
In order to achieve secure locking of all the panels, it is provided that the channel runs over the entire length of the groove and tongue, as a result of which the force-transmitting surface area is increased. The channel preferably runs beneath and parallel to the joint of the panels, in order for it to be possible to absorb and introduce forces as closely as possible to the joint of the panels.
A variant of the invention provides that the groove and the tongue are designed such that they bring about locking in the transverse direction, this resulting in a so-called laying profile in the case of which one panel can be introduced into the other from above, but displacement in the laying plane is not possible. This ensures particularly precise positioning of the panels in relation to one another, and a very large bearing surface, with a simultaneously straightforward profile configuration, is realized. Pushing an advantageously plastic or metal locking element into the recess or into the channel, with corresponding dimensioning of the locking element, produces a force component in the transverse direction, with the result that the joint is minimized. Depending on the material configuration and dimensioning, there may be elastic prestressing between the panels on the third and/or fourth side edge.
It is advantageous for the first side edge to be formed on the longitudinal side, and for the second side edge to be formed on the transverse side, of the panel, with the result that the pivoting-in movement takes place via the longitudinal side. This ensures that a long locking length is achieved by means of the secure and stable pivoting-in locking. As an alternative, it is provided that the tongue and the groove, corresponding to the tongue on the opposite side surface, is formed on the transverse side and form-fitting locking takes place via introduction into a milled relief made on the longitudinal side.
Particularly stable locking of two floor panels is achieved by one side edge being formed with a tongue, the tongue being designed such that locking takes place by an introduction movement into a recess of the second panels and a pivoting-in movement about an axis parallel to the first side edge. These introduction and pivoting-in movements give rise to locking both in the transverse direction and in the vertical direction, the recess being designed as a groove with a top lip and a bottom lip, in which the tongue can be latched in the transverse direction. The bottom front region is of rounded design, and this front region is adjoined by a flattened, essentially horizontally running supporting region, which increases the effective bearing surface area. This supporting region likewise gives rise to the two panels being positioned as precisely as possible in relation to one another, with the result that a maximum level of accuracy is achieved in respect of the vertical offset, as is a minimal angling tendency.
An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the floor panel is produced, at least in part, from an HDF or MDF material. As an alternative, it is possible for the entire floor panel to be produced from an OSB material. Using an OSB material achieves a natural-wood appearance and a structured surface. By contrast, it is possible for the top side of the panels, rather than having a decorative layer, to be produced from a wood-based material. The structure of the wood-based material may render a decorative layer superfluous, with the result that, as the top side, it is also possible to apply, for example, a layer of wood, wood fibers or wood chips. It is likewise possible for the panels to be formed wholly or partially from a plastic material, the region of the connecting means with tongue and recess (groove) preferably being produced from a plastic material.
A method of laying a floor panel provides that, in the first instance, a plurality of panels are connected and locked on their second side edges for the purpose of setting down a first row on the floor of a room. Thereafter, a further panel is connected and locked, by way of its first side edge, on at least one panel set down in the row, in order to start a second row by introducing, and pivoting, the tongue into the corresponding groove. A new panel is arranged, by way of its second side edge, in direct abutment against the side edge which is located opposite the second side edge of the previously set-down, further panel in the second row, the tongue being introduced into the groove and the new panel being located at an angle to the first row of set-down panels.
The new panel is then pivoted, about an axis parallel to the first side edge, in the direction of the floor until the form-fitting elements of the second side edge of the new panel butt against the corresponding milled relief of the further panel. Finally, the new panel is pushed downward until form-fitting locking has taken place over the entire length of the second side edge. A development provides that the pushing-down action preferably takes place abruptly, in particular by means of one or more hammer blows or using the ball of the thumb.
An alternative laying method provides that the new panel is arranged at a distance between the third side edge and the fourth side edge of a previously set-down, further panel, the tongue not being introduced into the groove. The new panel is located at an angle to the first row of set-down panels. The new panel is then pivoted, about an axis parallel to the first side edge, in the direction of the floor and displaced along the first side edge until the tongue is accommodated in the groove, with a joint and a channel being formed in the process. A locking element is then pushed into the channel and locking is produced in the transverse direction along the first side edge.
With the profile of the third and fourth side edges being configured such that the groove and tongue leads to locking in the transverse direction, a new panel is arranged, by way of its third side edge, in direct abutment against the fourth side edge of the previously set-down, further panel, the tongue being introduced into the groove and the new panel being located at an angle to the first set-down panels. The new panel is then pivoted, about an axis parallel to the first side edge, in the direction of the floor until the tongue is accommodated in the groove, with a joint and a channel being formed in the process. A locking element is then pushed into the channel in order to lock the panels and to prevent a pivoting-up movement in the horizontal direction.
The method of unlocking a floor panel without separate locking means provides that, in the first instance, a row of panels which are connected on the third and fourth side edges is pivoted about the axis parallel to the first side edge, that is to say preferably parallel to the longitudinal sides. The pivoting gives rise to unlocking on this side edge, and the panels can be removed from the groove of the still laid row of panels. The panels belonging to the removed row are still connected to one another on the third and fourth side edges, preferably transverse sides. In order to separate the panels, one panel of the row is pivoted about an axis parallel to the third or fourth side edge. If the row is located on the floor, the locked end is raised, with the result that the angle between the underside of the panels is reduced and the locking location is displaced away from the floor. The form-fitting elements of the panel are thus disengaged from the form-fitting elements of the corresponding milled relief of the other panel, without the form-fitting elements being destroyed, and the separated panel can be removed.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the attached figures, in which the same designations are used to designate the same objects, and in which:
The recess 3 and the tongue 10 run over the entire length of the side edges. An outwardly projecting tip 101 with a vertical front side is provided on the tongue 10, the tongue 10 having an upwardly sloping, wedge-shaped contour. Extending from the tip 101 of the tongue 10 is a horizontal underside 100, which is adjoined by an undercut 13, which is formed by an inclined, rectilinear wall 130 which is inclined at an angle to the top side 15. A bearing region 14, which adjoins the wall 130, runs parallel to the top side 15 of the panels 1 and provides a favorable bearing surface for absorbing vertical forces. The bearing region 14 is bounded on the panel side by a wall 11 which is inclined slightly in relation to the vertical, the angle being an acute angle.
The undercut 13, as is shown in
The top shoulder side 5 and the bearing region 14 provide a relatively large bearing surface, on which the two panels 1, 2 are located one upon the other in the connected state. The shoulder 9 is designed such that the front shoulder side 8 contains a recess 31 in which, as can be seen in
The top side of the protrusion 30 rests on a corresponding slope of the recess 31, this ensuring precise angled positioning of the panels 1, 2. In addition to the form-fitting locking on the top side 12 of the tongue 10, the formation of the form-fitting elements 30, 31 provides a second locking point in the vertical direction, with the result that increased securing against the first panels 1, 2 pivoting back in an undesirable manner, in the present case in the anticlockwise direction, is achieved. The locking action is enhanced by the rectilinear configuration of the top side 12 of the tongue, the underside 40 of the top lip 4, the top side 60 of the bottom lip 6 and the underside 100 of the tongue 10, since the rectilinear configuration makes pivoting more difficult and the profile is retained in position on account of the elastic restoring force of the panels. Moreover, further securing is provided by virtue of the tip 101 of the tongue 10 and of the groove base 50 of the recess 3 being designed parallel to one another.
The operations of laying and locking two panels 1, 2 with such a profile takes place by virtue of the first panel 1 being positioned with the tongue 10 at an angle to the second panel 2 and by the tongue 10 being introduced into the recess 3 of the second panel 2. The angled first panel 1 is then pivoted about an axis parallel to the longitudinal direction of the first side edge, in the present case in the clockwise direction, with the result that the tongue 10 slides along in the correspondingly configured recess 3 until the top side 12 of the tongue butts against the corresponding underside 40 of the top lip 4. In this state, as is shown in
In order to allow locking with another panel not just on two opposite side edges of a panel, a profile which is illustrated in
As an alternative to the embodiment illustrated, it is provided that the inner surface 27 runs essentially parallel to the outer wall 22, with the result that the inner shoulder wall 27 forms an undercut in relation to the head surface 26. Provision is likewise made for the outer wall 22, in addition to being designed essentially rectilinearly at an acute angle α to the vertical, to be rounded or to run vertically. It is necessary here for the form-fitting element 24 to project beyond the termination edge 28 of the top side 15, in order to carry out form-fitting locking with the second panel 1.
A recess 29 is formed above the form-fitting element 24 and acts as a dust pocket.
If the inner shoulder wall 27 is designed as an undercut in relation to the head surface 26, additional vertical locking is provided, in particular if the corresponding inner shoulder wall 270 of the upwardly directed shoulder 250 is likewise designed as an undercut. Form-fitting locking then takes place by the profiles being bent up slightly or elastically deformed, with the result that the form-fitting elements 23, 24 and the undercut provided by the inner shoulder wall 27 can pass into effective engagement with the corresponding undercuts 230, 240 and the undercut provided by the inner shoulder wall 270.
The milled relief 200, which starts from the top side 15, is designed such that it can accommodate the opposite profile, with the result that, on the one hand, the head surface 26 rests in a completely planar manner on the base surface 280 and, on the other hand, the surfaces 15 of the two panels 1, 2 in the installed state, as is illustrated in
As can clearly be seen in
The upwardly directed shoulder 250, rather than being formed over the entire length of the third side edge, is milled off over a region down to the base surface 280, this milling being provided in the direction of the first side edge with a tongue. By virtue of this milling out or non-formation of the shoulder 250, it is possible, during laying of the panels, for the initially angled panel to be lowered further downward before an abrupt installation movement in the downward direction gives rise to definitive locking via the third side edge, preferably the transverse side.
In the installed state, there is a free space between the head surface 260 of the shoulder 250 and the corresponding surface of the milled relief 20, this free space being necessary in order that the form-fitting element 23 can engage behind the undercut 230. This free space likewise serves as a dust pocket.
In addition to a panel being designed with a recess 3, having a top lip 4 and a bottom lip 6, on one side edge, it is also possible, by virtue of a corresponding profile configuration, to dispense with a bottom lip 6 if locking in the transverse direction Q and vertical direction V is ensured in some other way. This locking takes place such that, in the locked state, there is no possibility of any movement in the direction of the double arrows.
The presented profile and the laying method described allow panels to be laid easily and quickly. The profile also has the advantage that the specific configuration of the tongue 10 and of the recess 3 gives rise, on the one hand, to easy pivoting in and locking and, on the other hand, to a stable bearing arrangement and thus the possibility of the vertical offset being set as precisely as possible. There is likewise secure locking of the first side edges in the vertical direction V and transverse direction Q, and this profile can be milled to particularly good effect into OSB panels.
The profile configuration on the third side edge allows particularly durable form-fitting locking on the third and fourth side edges, preferably the transverse sides, of the panels, without there being any need for high-outlay auxiliary devices or particular skills for installation purposes. In addition to the offset form-fitting elements, the large bearing surface prevents angling and thus easy opening of the locking on the third side edge. Furthermore, the form-fitting locking, which produces a characteristic sound, indicates to the user of the panels that effective locking has taken place.
The joints 61, 62 are formed in each case by a first lip 63, 64 and a second lip 65, 66, the second lip 65 of the first panel 1 projecting beyond the first lip 63 in the transverse direction Q. The reverse is the case with the second panel 2: the first lip 64 projects beyond the second lip 66 in the transverse direction Q, the respectively projecting lips 64, 65 merging into the respective underside or top side of the tongues 52, 51.
In the exemplary embodiment illustrated, a corresponding, duct-like, cross-sectionally semicircular recess 71, 72 is milled in each case into the bottom, second lip 65 of the first panel and the top, first lip 64 of the second panel, these recesses, in the installed state illustrated, forming a channel 75. A separate locking element 80, preferably made of plastic, is pushed into this channel 75 to produce form-fitting locking in the transverse direction Q. By virtue of an elastic configuration of the locking element 80 and of slight over-dimensioning, it is possible for the panels 1, 2 to be braced in relation to one another, with the result that the joint 73 can always be kept minimally small. Prestressing between the panels 1, 2, once laid, is produced by virtue of the locking element 80 being pushed in, which results in secure positioning of the panels 1, 2 in relation to one another and in a minimal surface offset. The joint 73 is likewise kept closed, with the result that it is not possible for any dirt or any moisture to penetrate, and the core of the panels 1, 2 yields.
The recesses 71, 72 are arranged such that the channel 75 or the locking element 80 runs parallel to, and beneath, the joint 73, as a result of which, on the one hand, optimum production is possible on account of the more or less symmetrical design, since a milling-out operation only has to take place in part within the corresponding grooves 61, 62 and, on the other hand, there is still sufficient material present for absorbing corresponding forces in the panel material.
The operation of laying the panels 1, 2 with a profile configuration according to
Following removal of the locking element 80, it is possible for the panels to be detached without the profiles being destroyed, with the result that any desired number of laying operations can be carried out. Such a locking configuration is suitable, in particular, for (trade-) fair construction elements.
It is also possible for the locking elements 80 and the grooves and tongues to have different geometries, the locking element or the locking elements eliminating that movement component which is not blocked by the tongue/groove connection. The locking element advantageously braces the panels in relation to one another, with the result that the joint is minimized. The channel for the introduction of the locking element here can run over the entire joint width or groove width; all that is required is to provide corresponding form-fitting elements in order to bring about locking.

Well last week seemed just a little too easy for the staff picks as three of us went a perfect 7-0 for the week. I'm not sure I have any control over making the picks more difficult but the slate of games this week was no picnic when it came to making decisions. For example, who do you choose in a game between the preseason Patriot League favorite who is without one of their best offensive players or a surprisingly undefeated team who is now in the discussion for the PL title? Struggling Notre Dame or a 4-2 Ohio State team who's put together some good games against the Irish in the past? These are tough decisions.
The only pick everyone agreed on this week was Maryland over UMBC. The Retrievers have had the Terps' number in recent years, taking the last three straight contests between the interstate opponents. With UMBC dropping its last three games and Maryland still sitting with a goose egg in the losses column, could this be the year the Terps break the losing streak?
The former Hopkins goalie won two national championships as a Blue Jay and beat Syracuse in the regular season matchup all four years. Will his Jays be able to pull the upset on Saturday night? His picks are in the chart but he added a few comments too:
Maryland: playing good ball, revenge on UMBC
Ohio State: Feeling this one
Cornell: Ivy League special of the week
Denver: Lefty attackman is sick
Guest Pickers this season:
Week 1: Matt Abbott, 3-4
Week 2: Brodie Merrill, 3-3
Week 3: Jeff Reynolds, 5-2
Week 4: Max Seibald, 6-1

It appears that from many of their decisions over the last few years that they appear "doped" up. I think the public has a right to know what drug appeared because it sure as hell makes Mayfield guilty without any hope of clearing his name. 7 agree 2 disagree

God Has a Rap Sheet
Director Kamal Ahmed's debut dares to address themes that most newbies would stay away from, such as God, race and social justice. Ahmed's film explores what happens when eight men from very different walks of life are locked together in a holding cell for one night. Forced to interact, they discover that they have much more in common that they'd realized -- the least of which is a penchant for committing small crimes.

Indecorous. That's the word my editor uses to describe some of my more cavalier posts, but this story may go beyond that. In fact, it's downright vile. A New Jersey woman decided to film her abortion. It's not graphic, but it's disturbing. After the procedure - if you could call it that - she said, "cool, I feel good."
The woman, Emily Letts, works as an abortion counselor and thought it was time to "show women that there is such thing as a positive abortion story." She said she could "feel the love from everyone in the room" as her unborn child's life is snuffed out:
A first trimester abortion takes three to five minutes. It is safer than giving birth. There is no cutting, and risk of infertility is less than 1 percent. Yet women come into the clinic all the time terrified that they are going to be cut open, convinced that they won't be able to have kids after the abortion. The misinformation is amazing, but think about it: They are still willing to sacrifice these things because they know that they can't carry the child at this moment. ...
I knew the cameras were in the room during the procedure, but I forgot about them almost immediately. I was focused on staying positive and feeling the love from everyone in the room. I am so lucky that I knew everyone involved, and I was so supported. I remember breathing and humming through it like I was giving birth. I know that sounds weird, but to me, this was as birth-like as it could be. It will always be a special memory for me. I still have my sonogram, and if my apartment were to catch fire, it would be the first thing I'd grab. ...
Still, every time I watch the video, I love it. I love how positive it is. I think that there are just no positive abortion stories on video for everyone to see. But mine is.
So, besides glorifying infanticide, Letts said another reason she aborted her child is because she's not ready for children.
Left-wing sites, like ThinkProgress, were ecstatic with this film project. Tara Culp-Ressler, the site's health editor, wrote, "Letts' story helps demonstrate the fact that abortion isn't a barbaric procedure that needs additional regulation in order to make it safer."
"We are not ghouls," my editor says when he thinks a post has crossed a line. But, this video of a woman trying to destigmatize the killing of unborn life by smiling through the procedure is nothing, if not ghoulish.

"Too Much"
I really enjoyed the first two books, but by the time I started listening to this one I found myself fast forwarding, too predictable they were getting on my nerves. I'll continue to listen to some of her other books but will never do another series. Bored

* Brazil economic activity slows less than expected * U.S. retail sales, consumer sentiment data disappoint * Brazil Bovespa up 0.3 pct, Mexico IPC positive 0.16 pct SAO PAULO, Sept 13 (Reuters) - Brazilian stocks rose on Friday as a shallower-than-expected dip in local economic activity data helped offset below-forecast U.S. consumer sentiment and retail sales figures. Mexico's IPC index edged higher, while Chile's bourse was little changed. Data on Friday showed Brazil's economic activity contracted 0.33 percent in July, less than had been forecast. This bolstered hopes that Latin America's largest economy can avoid negative growth numbers in the third quarter. The positive sentiment was offset in part by less encouraging data from the United States, which showed retail sales rising less than expected in August and consumer confidence at a five-month low in September. Weak economic U.S. data has helped boost Brazilian stocks in recent months due to the expectation that the Federal Reserve would delay the tapering of monetary stimulus should the U.S. economy fail to gain traction. Friday's data, however, may not have been bad enough to prevent the Fed from deciding against cutting stimulus at its next meeting. "The expectation among U.S. economists that 'the beginning of the end' of the (stimulus) program will begin next week, while not unanimous, is strong enough to prevail over this worse-than-expected data," said Darwin Dib, chief economist with CM Capital Markets in Sao Paulo. Brazil's benchmark Bovespa stock index rose 0.3 pct to 53,459 points. The index has risen about 11 percent since early August. Shares of state-run oil firm Petrobras led gains, up 1.9 percent. But another oil firm, debt-laden OGX Petróleo e Gas SA led losses, down 2.56 percent. OGX late on Thursday elected three new directors to its board in a tense meeting that disappointed minority shareholders. The outlook for Brazilian equities remains challenging in the short run, Bank of America Merrill Lynch chief Brazil equity strategist Felipe Hirai said in a client note on Friday. The recent rally has become too dependent on foreign investment inflows and bullish U.S. and Chinese economic data, and there is limited room for further gains, he said.

suppliants and attendants stood outside the line of pillars, and the officers of the court within.
Now then, will you reject those who appear as suppliants before you?
Their envoys came to Constantinople, and were treated as suppliants.
In the Veda we are told that the suppliants "squeeze the soma with stones."
He could only lay his hand gently on the suppliants head, and uplift his eyes to heaven in prayer.
Then it struck her that in the character of suppliants they were not behaving properly.
At a solemn festival these three children were sent by their destitute mother into the theatre, dressed in the garb of suppliants.
They can be equal only before the law, or in the eye of the law, or as suppliants for justice.
The stream of suppliants for his favor was all but exhausted, and he awaited to give the last audience of the day.
Only those who fell as suppliants at the feet of the archons' wives were spared.
early 15c., "humble petitioner," from Middle French suppliant, originally present participle of supplier "to plead humbly, entreat, beg, pray," from Latin supplicare "beg, beseech" (see supplication).

Tammy lost due to a shameless plot devised by Nancy Pelosi to pretend to have lost her legs in Iraq proudly serving her country.
How could Nancy Pelosi do such a sick, sick thing? No Democrat ever served proudly ! Fuck you, Satan's Handmaiden, you're a real bastard.


text: Expansion Project Vol. 9 (90's Dirty South Hip Hop) by NEBAKANEZA published on 2013-10-31T20:35:06Z When I was in High School I was really into Dirty South Hip Hop. This was in the late 90's before the Trap and Crunk styles blew up, and Chopped & Screwed was just starting to get popular. The south was a bit more soulful and dark back then. It appealed to me as a teenager because I was already into Soul and R&B but southern Rap had that extra edge to cater to my teenage angst, and it helped me deal with the fucked up neighborhood I grew up in. I'll never forget when I first heard Goodie Mob's album "Soul Food". That album changed my life and to this day I can still rap every line, front to back. The one line that I used to repeat over and over in my head was on the track Sesame Street: "13 and a half years old, standing at the bus stop alone in the cold, on my way to be, degraded for a fee, to help get my family off the street, called Sesame." I was 13 when that song came out and had to catch the bus to school everyday. I was the only white guy in my school, so I was always alone, or fucked with. That line was inspiration to work as hard as I could to get the fuck out of the ghetto. I listened to that tape til it snapped and I had to buy the CD. Eventually the CD got so scratched that I had to buy it again. After discovering Goodie Mob, it was only a matter of time til I got into Outkast, 8Ball & MJG, Devin, Mystikal, Mr Mike, Juvenile and the rest of the South. I was obsessed with southern rap and it was when I first really started to collect music on a massive scale. In a way, you can say that Southern Hip Hop got me started as a DJ. Crunching nearly a decade into one mix, and staying within a certain BPM range, left me with a lot of hard decisions. There are so many artists that I had to leave out, but I managed to fit 32 of my favorite tunes from that era. (The Expansion Project is a mix series exploring a different genre of music each month.)
