I don't have much to start this off, other than I really would like to hear experiences from others on what they have done to raise awareness of IT above the janitors's closet in the organization.
Myself, I'm an IS Director of a non-profit arts .org in Washington, DC. The place was a mess when I got here 2.5 years ago and it's fairly sweet now, if I may say so. But, as I've observed from others writing on this topic, the infrastructure upgrade is done (or almost done), now what?
I have a couple of my own stories to tell, but I want to hear from you guys first. What has worked? What has gotten you pimp-slapped down to the step child of red-headed step children?
[This message was edited by Norrick on February 24, 2004 at 14:51.]
When you say "raise awareness of IT", what is it exactly that you mean? Do you want your colleagues better to understand your job? Do you want them to integrate IT into their work to a larger extent? Do you want them to be more pro-active in identifying opportunities for IT solutions in the company?
Myself, I used to be an internal consultant for corporate applications until a year and a half ago. My experience is that people prefer not to know about IT and I have learned to respect that attitude. Informatics is often presented by IT professionals as a problem solver, whereas the perception at the receiving end is rather less rosy - at best, where it solves one problem, it creates another somewhere else. As a result, "waste of time" and "passing the buck" are phrases often heard in relation to IT implementations.
An important objective of IT is to remove the inefficiencies of paper-based business processes. It is easy to see the advantages linked to centralised invoicing, document management and management control systems - amongst others traceability, standardisation and accessibility. The disadvantages, however much less visible, are a lot more perceptible at the operational level. Think about it: paper is much more flexible than any IT application will ever be, particularly the unused white spaces in forms where you'll often find notes not partaining to any label on the form, but essential for its processing nonetheless in the eyes of the process actors.
Essentially, in business process redesign, IT can only be successful if its implementors understand the business process they aim to improve as well as those who work in that process. In an ideal world, IT would be part of everybody's background, so that the business process redesign could be implemented by the participants in that process themselves.
That seems unlikely to happen, though. In my experience, the best you can strive for is an implementation strategy that impacts the targeted business process as little as possible, over as small a timeframe as possible. People should have the impression their daily work is not affected by IT; it is, after all, a facilitating technology in most enterprises.
I work for a local Coca-Cola mfgr/distro and increasing IT awareness in our business has been a primary function of our group. I started here almost 6 months ago, and our staff increased from 2 to 8 nearly in 2 weeks. To justify our jobs we've had to do lots of work to give business the perception that IT isnt just an expense, but rather a savings - being that we save money in other areas of the company.
Some things that have worked so far? Paperless (almost) invoices. Instead of keeping warehouses of our customer invoices (for IRS purposes) we implimented high speed scanners to scan all incoming invoices. What's next? Taking the invoices direct from our Intermec handheld devices...no printing (except for the customer copy).
What hasn't worked? -- the above mentioned handhelds. Spent millions to buy handhelds for everyone from drivers, to warehouse workers, to merchandisers. Has it saved man hours? No... Has it added functionality? No... Has it eased customer ordering? no... Has it caused us headaches and late nights? Yep.
I think ultimately the million dollar phrase here is automation -- to save hours and eliminate inefficiencies is the name of the game. Thats what raises awareness of IT IMO.
FWIW I'm pleased that the thread title is 'aligning IT with business', not 'aligning business with IT'.
Once I reached a certain age I realised that IT (in a business context) exists solely to serve the requirements of the host business. Everything else is secondary. So when I hire IT staff these days, I now make a point of looking for people with a bit of business clue. IT focussed technical staff make great contractors but poor employees.
I would go along with that. I scored many brownie points as a contractor by going out of my way to explain stuff in business terms, not IT terms, and as importantly not hold IT up to be useful in and of itself. Sometimes an IT based solution isn't the right answer for the business, but many techies just love jumping into big projects...
My biggest problem has been getting the business types to understand that I'm not just a techie--that I do in fact have business intelligence backing my decisions. Until recently, I worked for a group of people that just steadfastly ignored anything I presented, no matter what terms I presented it in, or how much of a cost savings/revenue enhancement/you-name-it I could show. Short of getting an MBA (and I'm working on that) how does one build business credibility?
What I mean is what others have said already: to move the perception of IT out of the basement as a cost center, and into the larger organization as a strategic asset. None of this will happen overnight, nor without significant effort on the part of the IT department. Part of that effort is acting like a business manager and less of a techie. you have to show them your business chops, so to speak.
Agreed. As a lawyer I worked with years ago said to me, "Don't tell me how you make the sausage, just bring me the sausage."
I'm all too familiar with the eye glazing effect and try to limit "techie-speak." Sometimes it's unavoidable, other times analogies will suffice. The bottom line is you have to know your audience, especially their limits for not only understanding technology, but also their limits of tolerating discussion of same.
One rule drives all of this: Perception is reality. This rule will make you road kill if you forget it or don't take it to heart. We're in the least understood area of any organization, so be ready for one helluva an uphill climb.
It's ridiculous to think that no business solution of any kind has no costs associated with it. Everything has a price. I see IT management's job in this case as managing that price and creating the environment where senior management's understanding of the process is in terms they can grok.
Absolutely correct. You have to know your organization's business to be truly effective. You need to get out and talk to the other line managers for this to happen. You won't find this out in the server room (other than rooting through their email that is).
One critial element in all of this is having receptive management. If they think you're the janitor, cleaning up techie messes, you're toast. That is what I've been up against the past 2 years since they fired the management team that hired me (and have just NOW replaced).
The president of our Board has been acting as president of our .org. He can be a blustering boor more often than not and never acts that he's happy to see you, let alone talk to you. When you do talk to him, he might as well have a timer running. He has other endearing traits, such as forgetting most anything he's told you to do, telling others what he wants me to do, etc. The good news is that my new boss has an IT background as well as being the CFO and seems eager to expand our role. This could make my life just a *bit* easier.
To put more succinctly, the what is established (see thread title). It's the how that is the big bugaboo.
I've been having this conversation with peers in the arts community and most of us are at the same level of frustration in moving this comcept closer to reality.
The one thing I've walked away with is if your management isn't open to the concept, you're wasting energy that could otherwise be spent productively.
What I've done in the past is to single out one person in the group who was even remotely receptive to my ideas. I'd give them that little extra - "See, you can directly query the database in Excel. Cool, eh?" - and they'd always want more. They then become your "champion" - your liason to the community you want access to.
It doesn't _always_ work, but it's the best approach I've found.
There appears no easy way to achieve this. In fact, I feel it requires a long-term process involving sensitising high-level officers in the company about the strategic value of IT. One way I went about it was a little like Soko describes earlier in this thread: by identifying the person most receptive to your ideas and lead them step by step to the point they are convinced and willing to champion your cause. This can't be just anybody; the person needs to have sufficient authority within the organisation, or else you'll have created a fellow sufferer in your quest.
In my case, I showed our VP of Operations (until that moment rather sceptical of the relevance of the IT department) some of the possibilities that arise when linking existing databases and putting an Excel UI on top of it. In the course of a year, he
1) used it as his real-time presentation app to replace Powerpoint in board meetings; then,
2) based more and more decisions on processed data coming out of the system (mainly in competition with colleagues that lacked such a system); consequently,
3) ordered the integration of additional databases into the system; eventually,
4) championed the deployment of the system within the company; and finally,
5) outsourced further development to a contractor for whom this was a "core competence", thus confining the IT department to less strategic issues... ah well, such is life.
Interesting way of putting it. In fact, this goes back to your original issue: the perception of IT as a cost centre. When you say IT management's job is to manage the costs associated with business solutions, that comes rather close to this perception. Agreed, the second part - managing senior management's expectations, essentially - goes beyond simple cost containment. Nevertheless, you'd be surprised how close your definition comes to the understanding by top management.
I agree that it is IT management's job to manage the costs involved with business solutions. However, this is only an operational task of IT. A much more interesting role is the one where business development and IT solutions merge, a little like the .com opportunities of yore, but with some business sense if you like. That is where I find IT's strategic importance lies.
I would unplug the "Internet" cable and sit back and wait for the organization to become more "aware" of IT...
Seriously, I would focus on working with other departments directly to solve some of their nagging problems or greatly enhance their productivity. Go to the marketing, sales, support, creative and executive folks and come up with a hitlist of major and minor projects that IT can do to help meet the goals of the company, and then deliver them.
Take the department out of a pure infrastructure/support mode and into a development mode...
-- Eric.

With four major tournaments in an eight-day span, finding a top-flight grassroots basketball game will not be hard to do in Las Vegas this week.
Nearly 600 teams with virtually every major prospect in the country are set to compete.
Their presence ensures that Division I coaches will flock to Sin City. The coaches' odds of finding a player are much better than they are of hitting a jackpot.
GBOA starts the race
The inaugural GBOA Challenge of Champions is a collection of 24 of the top grassroots teams in the country.
New York Gauchos, winners of the Arizona Cactus Classic and most recently the Nike Peach Jam, are one of the featured teams. The dynamic backcourt of Kemba Walker (Connecticut), Jordan Theodore (Seton Hall), Darryl Bryant, Chris Fouch and Durand Scott has yet to back down from any challenge this year.
Pump 'N' Run has been just as good as the Gauchos on the circuit this year. Jrue Holiday, Jerime Anderson and Larry Drew are a difficult matchup. Pump 'N' Run won the Take 5ive Classic in Cincinnati at the beginning of the month.
EBO, a Fresno, Calif.-based club boasts a talented roster with of a number of 2009 prospects, including Brendan Lane and Jerry Brown. DC Assault, winners of last year's adidas Super 64, fields a team with Jamar Samuels (Kansas State) and Kris Joseph (Syracuse).
The Playaz have a great backcourt in Mike Rosario (Rutgers), Jarrett Mann (Stanford), Travon Woodall and Jiovanny Fontan (Fordham). Grassroots Canada, winner of the Pittsburgh Jam Fest, is deep with Olu Ashaolu, Devoe Joseph, Junior Cadougan and 2010 prospect Tristan Thompson.
Team Breakdown of Florida will lean on Kenny Boynton and Eloy Vargas. There is a good chance that 2010 stud Brandon Knight and 2009 forward David Loubeau also will be with the team for the GBOA event.
Other notable teams in the field include: Metro Hawks, Arkansas Hawks, New York Panthers, Spiece Indy Heat, Belmont Shore, Albany City Rocks, Oakland Soldiers and Richmond Squires.
The event is held at the Centennial Hills YMCA in northwest Las Vegas. For more information on the event, go to www.gboahoops.com.
Forecasting the Reebok Championships
Reebok has gone away from the Big Time title and is called the Summer Championships this year. The tournament boasts 224 teams from 39 states. The tournament has eight pre-seeded teams for a mini-tournament that will run through the event's first two days.
The eight seeds are: D1 Greyhounds (Ohio), Southeast Elite (Ala.), King of the Court (Ohio), Texas Blue Chips Elite, Triple Threat (Md.), LA Dream Team (Calif.), Illinois Wolves and Belmont Shore (Calif.).
The Greyhounds boast William Buford, an Ohio State commitment, Darius Miller, a highly coveted wing, and Kenny Frease, a Xavier commitment.
Southeast Elite has a nice trio of prospects in Mississippi State commit Romero Osby, Courtney Fortson, a guard with lots of high-major interest, and Varez Ward.
King of the Court will put Michigan State-bound forward Delvon Roe and Ohio State-bound guard Anthony Crater on the floor. Texas Blue Chips Elite boast intriguing forwards Quincy Acy and Brandon Moore.
Triple Threat has a Georgetown flavor with future Hoyas Chris Braswell andJason Clark. The LA Dream Team features the nation's top-ranked 2009 player in Renardo Sidney.
The Illinois Wolves are one of the best overall teams in the country and shine with unselfishness and team play. Belmont Shore will lean on the 1-2 punch of five-star guards Demar DeRozan and Brandon Jennings.
For more information on the Reebok Summer Championship, log on to www.reebokchampions.com.
Forecasting the adidas Super 64
In terms of getting the most bang for your buck on the first two days of action, the adidas Super 64 event might be your best bet. Tournament organizers have the top teams separated into four-team power pools, and each of the tournaments top teams is guaranteed three games against other top-flight teams.
The top pool boasts four of the most successful teams on the circuit this year in Indiana Elite, Pump 'N' Run Elite, Atlanta Celtics and Playaz. All four teams have won events this year, and all four teams will play each other in pool play.
Indiana Elite has the services of five-star center Tyler Zeller, five-star wing DeAndre Liggins (Kentucky), freak athlete Emmanuel Negedu (Arizona) and a host of other high-level players.
The Celtics are loaded in the frontcourt with Derrick Favors, Georgia-bound forward Howard Thompkins, Chris Singleton and Delwan Graham. Noel Johnson and Trae Golden, both underclassmen, will hold down the backcourt.
The Pump 'N' Run Elite and the Playaz will continue on after the GBOA Challenge of Champions.
Also in the power pools and playing at UNLV's Cox Pavilion are such teams as EBO, Las Vegas Prospects, Ohio Basketball Club, KC Pump 'N' Run, Florida Rams, NE Playaz, DC Assault, T-Mac All-Stars, Juice All-Stars, Compton Magic, M33M, DTA Wisconsin, Hunting Park, Team Philly Elite, Texas Select, Michigan Mustangs, New Orleans Jazz and Seattle Rotary.
Players of note include: Luke Babbitt (Nevada) and Olek Czyz of the Las Vegas Prospects; Yancy Gates (Cincinnati) and B.J. Mullens (Ohio State) of the Ohio Basketball Club; Travis Releford (Kansas) of KC Pump 'N' Run; Florida commitments Kenny Kadji and Ray Shipman of the Florida Rams; Troy Gillenwater, Terrell Holloway and Erik Murphy of the NE Playaz; Elliot Williams of M33M; Korie Lucious (Michigan State) of DTA Wisconsin; and Maalik Wayns (Villanova) of Team Philly Elite.
There are 96 teams in the field for the adidas Super 64 in the 17-under division. For more information on the tournament, go to www.adidassuper64.com.
Forecasting the Main Event
The biggest and busiest tournament is the Main Event. How big? Try 256 teams in the 17-under field.
There is no bigger or better team than the New York Gauchos. And there is no better single player in the field than Team Texas guard Willie Warren. Both parties will draw a crowd.
Keep an eye on Houston Hoops with Stanford-bound guard Jeremy Green and big men Anthony Jones and Keith Gallon.
The Meanstreets teams is always tough. Its top two players, Michael Dunigan and Matthew Humphrey, have both committed to Oregon and are playing well. Josh Crittle provides a big body down low.
Baltimore's Team Melo will lean on Sean Mosley, while the Carolina Raptors look to guards Demarquis Bost (Mississippi State) and Damier Pitts. California Supreme has the best overall young player in the field in Jeremy Tyler. The team consists mostly of 2010 and 2009 prospects. They will test themselves in the 17-under division.
Coaches and scouts certainly will be able to find some sleepers in the 16U and 15U divisions, too.
Rivals.com will be in Las Vegas beginning Friday. Our coverage from Sin City closes out a long, busy year on the grassroots circuit. Jerry Meyer, Mark Reeves and Justin Young will have updates and information throughout the week.

I've grown mostly tired and stale of the websites I regularly visit (majority are sports and music related, with a dash of the XXX material ).
Now everyone knows we should be spending the majority of our time on the web on Raptor's Republic.
But other than RR, what are some good websites that you guys would recommend?

The tub dampening straps support the wash tub and reduce vibration by keeping the tub at the center of the cabinet. If your washer shakes and moves, or is making a loud banging noise during the wash cycle, the washing machine tub could be off-balance, meaning one or more of these straps may be loose, or broken. Other symptoms include: the washer leaking, not agitating, or pumping but not spinning. These straps are sold individually. However, we recommend that you replace all 4 straps at the same time. It is also recommended that you check the tub for cracks where these straps mount.
This part works with the following brands: General Electric, Hotpoint.
This part works with the following products: Washer.
This part fixes the following symptoms:

I ordered the dampening straps for my washer tub. I ordered 4 of them and was just wondering if they had to be placed in a specific order or anything?
Hello Nikita, no, there is not a specific order for the placement of the dampening straps WH1X2727 for your washer. Best of luck with this repair.
When my washer is agitating it's making a moaning noise like it's suffering or something. When its filling up with water or draining it doesn't seem to make that noise. Could the washer tub need new dampening straps
Hi Rema, based on your symptoms we would not recommend new dampening straps. It sounds more like it could be a motor straining, or a faulty mode shifter. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
The dampening straps in my washer keep breaking earlier than they should be and I don't think it has to do with the way I am installing them. Can you clarify whether this would be an installation problem or if there's something else on the go here
Hi Gina, dampening straps break prematurely when the washer is being overloaded, or is frequently off balance during cycle. I hope this helps!
When on the spin cycle the washer makes a loud noise much louder than ever before. Is it the bearing or something else. I checked the rubber straps and the belt and all looks good..if it is the bearing can this be repaired at home?
Hi David, Thank you for the question. Yes, the tub bearing PartSelect Number PS271510 is the most common part to replacing when having a lot of noise during the spin cycle. Here is a link to the video on how to do the repair yourself. Hope this helps!
Hello: I bought four ps271100 (tub dampening straps) and after installing it the washer still shakes too much and actually sounds like the tub is hitting the sides of the washer. Are there shorter straps that i could buy or do you have any other suggestions on how to avoid the tub shaking so much. Thanks
Hello Luis, thank you for contacting us. It sounds like you may need to replace the suspension rods. PS270536 PS270537 Good luck with the repair!
My washer is making loud, squeeky noise during the cycle that it didn't do before. Do i need to replace the #370 straps? I have pulled off the front panel and i don't know how or where to get at the straps.
Hello Jeff, thank you for contacting. If it is making a squeaking noise that is most commonly from the drive belt slipping, part PS270803. You can inspect it for fraying or damage as it may need to be replaced. The tub straps would be more if it was making a loud banging noise. Hope this helps!
The waher makes a clanking sound when agitating. No unusual sound when spinning. There is one broken tub strap. Should changing these make that noise go away?
Hi Lawrence,
Thank you for your question. Yes, if one of your suspension straps are broken then replacing it should fix your noise issue.
I hope that helps!
first remove the front washer cover by finding the two pressure clips that hold it to the top lid. gently push the putty knife into the clips one at a time. this will raise and separate them from the front panel. the panel will tilt forward and u can now remove it from the bottom clips by sliding it up and out. to open the top cover u remove the two 1/4 in screws on the sides of the front panel and lift the top. make sure to secure it in place or unplug the single electrical connection at the rear and remove the whole top from the clips, its really simple and the most convenient mehtod. to remove the straps u can now get to all four without much interference. there are two size screw heads so make sure u have a nut driver or small socket set. after changing the straps i went to change the agitator coupling. the agitator pulled directly up without a problem. just put your two hands under and pull straight up with one good jolt. the plastic coupler has one bolt in the middle that came out easily with a small socket set. my problem arose when the plastic coupler would not come off the metal shaft. after a short time of pulling and prying i finally decided to cut it off. using a small hacksaw and taking my time i put two cuts into the coupler. they were on opposite sides and where vertical, running along the steel shaft. i could now split it in two and it came off very easily and quickly. now when putting on the new one make sure the splines line up. push as far down as u can then use the center bolt to seat the gear all the way down. the agitator also has to be lined up just right. it also has splines on the interior that allow it to line up with the coupler and merely push down until it reseats itself in place. replace the top of the washer and then the front panel. don't forget to rebolt the top panel to the frame. push the front panel in until it snaps into place. full replacement time was about 40 minutes and actually not bad with the right tools.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
First I removed the front panel by prying it forward with a Screw driver away from the side panels at the top (wrap a shop rag around the Screw driver to keep from scratching the paint). Once you have the panel pried loose at the top ... lean it forward until you can lift it off the tab type hooks at the bottom. I next unplugged the wires from the motor. The orginal motor had three wires ... two on top and one on the left side. The one on the side is a ground wire for the open frame motor. The replacement motor is sealed and does not require this wire. Just leave it unplugged when the new one is installed. Next I removed the inlet hose that attaches to the back of the pump. Remove it by loosening the hose clamp and removing it from the bottom of the tub, leaving it attached to the back of the pump. It is much easier to remove and transfer to the new pump once it is out rather than fight with the spring type clamp on the back of the pump in the close quarters inside the machine. Next I removed the outlet hose from the top of the pump. Squeeze the spring clamp with Pliers and work it up and off the pump. Now I just used a Socket to remove the two bolts holding the bracket to the inside front of the machine and removed the assembly. I now removed the inlet hose from the back of the old pump. Just squeeze the spring clamp with Pliers and work it up the hose and off the pump. Transfer the hose to the back of the new pump reusing the same clamp. I now bolted the assembly back into the machine, reattached the outlet hose to the pump, and then reattached inlet hose to the bottom of the tub. All that was left to do was plug in the two wires to the top front of the pump motor (as I mentioned earlier, leave the side wire from the old pump unplugged as it is not needed on the new one). I then ran the machine for a few moments with the front off to check for any leaks and then put the front panel back on. The whole replacement cost about $50 and took barely 15 min. from start to finish. The machine now works perfectly.
Removed the front cover of the washer by sliding a screw driver to release the clips. Loosened the 4 nuts that held the drivebelt motor pushed the motor back to release the drive belt. Replaced the drive belt, pulled motor until drive belt was snug and tighted the 4 bolts. At the same time, I replaced the 4 tub dampening straps located at the top of the tub and now the unit is just like new.
I replaced the work tub dampening strap because that what everyone recommended to replace for this problem. However the purpose of these straps is to dampen the agitation cycle and they have nothing to with the spin cycle at all. the balance ring assembly had been rubbing on the outer tub so I decided to replace it because of a "balance issue". However the ring is liquid with baffles to counter balance the load as it spins and it still had the liquid inside of it so it was actual not needed. What fixed my issue was I found a bolt laying at the bottom of the washer. This bolt was one of the 4 bolts that hold the outer tub to the metal support. When it feel out the tub was only held in at 3 points not the needed 4. This allowed it to rock a bit in the high speed spin and you thought it was going to fly into a 1000 pieces. I replaced the bolt and other parts since I had paid for them and everything works great now.
Based on other research, the location of the leak indicated that the main tub seal needed to be replaced. I took the washer apart before ordering new parts in case I broke other parts in the process and to be sure I could. I ended up having to cut off the Agitator Coupling and really marred up the hub nut. Those were the hardest 2 pieces to remove since they had corroded badly after many years of use. I had to use a pipe wrench and a hammer to remove the hub nut and a hack saw to get the agitator coupling off (air bell). $68.00 and 2 hours later, the washer no longer leaks.
went very well thank you
I removed the front cover, then unscrewed the top to expose the top. There are two screws that hold each strap, which turns out are different sizes, so I had to use two different sockets. I also had to remove the hose & plastic tube for the bleach. Once that was done, the replacement was easy, I replaced all 4 straps, reconnected the tube for the bleach, screwed the top back on and snapped the front cover into place. This took maybe 30 minutes - and I am female!
replaced Tub dampeners Straps.
Basically, I just followed the instructions in the video that is posted on this sight. It went off without a hitch. Removed the screws from the control panel, lifted it up and out of the way. Then I used the putty knife to release the clips that hold the front panel in place and then removed the top of the washer. Pretty easy from there to swap out the dampening straps and reassemble the washer. Saved a lot of money doing it myself.
First and foremost, the job would have taken 2 hrs instead of 8 hrs. The problem was that no one on the help instructions said that the Hub Nut had a LEFT HAND thread and suggested to just break the nut off. Well, after chiseling off most of the nut I drilled small holes through the nut and removed the nut pieces. However; I learned that I had damaged the transmission seal and had to buy a new transmission $183. Had I known this the job would have taken much less time and at a cost of about $50.PS: The washer runs great.
Took front of washer off,found that all of the straps were broke ,removed two small bolts from each strap pulled plastic support from from broken strap and put it in new strap,put plastic supported end of strap in first put bolt in and mounted other end to drum,easy job just about any one with common since could do it.Got to go laundry to wash :-)
I notice a strange noise when ever the tub would shut down from a spin cycle. When I would load clothes it seemed that the basket had to much lateral movement. I looked between the top of the frame & basket & found 2 of the dampening straps had broken. Ordered 4 of them to replace all the straps.Replacement was easy. I popped the front cover of the machine off. Remove 2 screws which held the top down which gave easy access to the straps. The straps are held in place by 2 screws so it was a simple process of removing the screws, removing the straps from their anchors & reinstalling the screws with the new straps. Job done. Reinstall the top & front of the machine & put the wife back to work.
Repair went good, only wish i had bought a new tub seal, washer, an split ring....but i managed to save the original ones an it seems to be working like new again! thanks Partselect!!!!
Use paint scraper to release spring tabs holding front cover on. Removed 2 screws holding lid down, and lifted up but did not remove top cover and control panel.R/R 2 hex screws holding strap in place. If you are lucky and the broken strap is up front this is a super fast repair. Those of you with a rear strap will want to disconnect the wiring harness to the lid switch and likely remove the top panel (+ <5 mins).Super easy and super cheap!
Originally my water level sensor was broken. When I was repairing that, I noticed that the dampening straps were broken. Replacing them was easy. The hardest part was remembering how to open the top. I just searched the internet until I found the answer. I can't remember it all right now, but the key was to slide a putty knife in between the top and the front to pop open the body.

UHV connects current students with employers
By FROM NEWS RELEASE
April 16, 2011 at 5:05 p.m.
Updated April 15, 2011 at 11:16 p.m.
University of Houston-Victoria is already accepting freshmen for the fall, and many of those will be looking for part-time work to help pay for the costs of attending college.
UHV Career Services has connected more than 100 eager students this school year with university departments and area employers looking for dependable, affordable part-time help.
Coordinator Eunice Mesa and specialist Amy Hatmaker are looking for even more employers as UHV prepares to accept new freshmen.
"We're anticipating more of a need and want to reach out to area employers from for-profit companies and nonprofits alike," Mesa said.
Hatmaker said hiring a university student can be a win-win situation.
"Employers can get a worker, and our students make good contacts and job references, and gain experience," she said. "For a lot of our employers, a student part timer works well for them."
While it isn't always possible to match student jobs to career interests, Hatmaker said some students have found employment in their fields, including a Web designer at a nonprofit and an accounting student who took a job with an area tax preparation business.
In some cases, job assistance is available for nonprofit businesses to hire students who show financial need. Many nonprofits have positions that would qualify for community service definitions under Federal Work Study Guidelines. Federal work-study funds also are available to some for-profit employers to supplement pay when a job aligns with a student's degree plan.
Career Services stays busy, particularly since UHV added freshmen and sophomores in fall 2010. Its part-time job fair each fall has produced good results for students and employers.
"Our vision is to eventually host an all-majors job fair or networking events," Mesa said.
She acknowledged that tough economic times have made employers wary about committing to a certain number of hires during job fairs.
"Employers don't know what's going to happen in relation to business," she said. "So we want to bring them to campus without that commitment since they are unsure of the job hiring outlook."
Hatmaker said students have performed well at their jobs, and working in the community helps them get involved and feel more connected to Victoria and surrounding areas.
"Our students who have jobs at the YMCA and the Victoria Regional Museum Association are considered a part of these groups' families," Hatmaker said. "There is a nice comfort level there, and the employers have become a good support system for our students."

The Childrens Museum of Durango, which does business under the name of the Durango Discovery Museum, was approved Tuesday for a tavern liquor license by the Local Licensing Authority.
The science museum at 1333 Camino del Rio is not about to open a full-time saloon but wanted the flexibility to host more after-hours events, such as fundraisers for nonprofits or wedding receptions at its outdoor plaza by the Animas River Trail.
Pub science nights also have become popular with adults who like a glass of beer or wine with their trivia, said Chris Cable, the executive director of the museum.
Making the museum available as a venue for after-hours events also helps to keep ticket prices low for the regular museum patrons, Cable said.
To uphold liquor laws and prevent people from wandering onto the river trail with an open container of alcohol, the museum hires private security for its special events.

Ok folks, I am just wondering which rookies you are enjoying watching so far this season?
My favourite type of players are big men power forwards and centres. Particularly scoring big men.
So, I am loving watching Blake Griffin for the Clippers and DeMarcus Cousins for the Kings. I love watching Griffin doing his backing up his defender then spinning and shooting his fade away, it`s majestic to watch.
DeMarcus Cousins was really impressive against the Phoenix Suns. I think that Griffin and Cousins will certainly be perennial all-stars in the future.
And of course I love watching Landry Fields play. He wil develop into a top player for the Knicks.

Wikipedia: " The Float at Marina Bay, stylised as The Float@Marina Bay and also known as the Marina Bay Floating Platform (Chinese: 滨海湾浮动舞台, Malay: Pentas Terapung Teluk Marina, Tamil: மரீனா பே மிதக்கும் மேடை), is the world's largest floating stage. It is located on the waters of the Marina Reservoir, in Marina Bay, Singapore.
Made entirely of steel, the floating platform on Marina Bay measures 120 metres long and 83 metres wide, which is 5% larger than the soccer field at the National Stadium. The platform can bear up to 1,070 tonnes, equivalent to the total weight of 9,000 people, 200 tonnes of stage props and three 30-tonne military vehicles. The gallery at the stadium has a seating capacity of 30,000 people.
The floating stadium will be a venue for events on the waters of Marina Bay for five years from 2007. These events may include sports, concerts, exhibitions, and the arts and cultural performances. The National Day Parade will also be held annually for five years at the stadium"
Singapore began as a boat quay at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. Its early days bear few written accounts which are made more difficult to interpret due to the many names it has had. Its original name in Malay meant "island at the end" of the peninsula.In the middle ages there was a settlement here with a trading post and fishing village; today Singapore technically contains sixty-three small islands. Here's a good view of the city from Merlion Park and up close at Raffles Place.From the fifteenth century onwards Singapore's warring neighbors took turns taking over control of the city. Over the past five centuries this port city has been the property of Siam, the Majapahit Empire of Java, Thailand, Portugal, Britain, Japan and Malaysia. Singapore finally achieved its independence in 1959 and has existed as the Republic of Singapore, a UN member nation.Singapore is really interesting because it's one of only five sovereign city-states which survived the colonial expansion period of world history. (The others are Vatican City, Monaco, San Marino and Andorra.) Its history as a busy port city has brought traders from all over the world, and their influence is commemorated in some interesting works of art. For example, see the British tea merchants along the Singapore river, and the Asian Civilizations Museum.In the nineteenth century Singapore was a major port for ships traveling between Europe and East Asia. During WWII the Battle of Singapore ended with the largest British surrender in history -- nearly 130,000 troops.Next time you have the chance to pass through Singapore, make sure to visit the zoo and see the white tigers, and be glad there's a fence in between. Also note how clean the city is, even under a bridge.Text by Steve Smith.

Multifocal atrial tachycardia is a rapid heart rate that occurs when too many signals (electrical impulses) are sent from the upper heart (atria) to the lower heart (ventricles).
The human heart gives off electrical impulses, or signals, which tell it to beat. Normally, these signals begin in an area of the upper right chamber called the sinoatrial node (sinus node or SA node). This node is considered the heart's "natural pacemaker." It helps control the heartbeat. When the heart detects a signal, it contracts (or beats).
The normal heart rate in adults is about 60 to 100 beats per minute. The normal heart rate is faster in children.
In multifocal atrial tachycardia (MAT), multiple locations in the atria fire signals at the same time. Too many signals lead to a rapid heart rate -- usually from 100 to 130 beats per minute in adults. The rapid heart rate causes the heart to work too hard and inefficiently. If the heartbeat is very fast, the heart has less time to fill up with blood, so it doesn't have the right amount of blood to pump to the brain and the rest of the body.
MAT is most common in people age 50 and over. It is often seen in people with conditions that lower the amount of oxygen in the blood. These conditions include:
You may be at higher risk for MAT if you have:
When the heart rate is less than 100 beats per minute, the arrhythmia is called "wandering atrial pacemaker."
Some people may have no symptoms. When symptoms occur, they can include:
Other symptoms that can occur with this disease:
An examination shows a fast irregular heartbeat, usually of 100 to 130 beats per minute. Blood pressure is normal or low. There may be signs of poor circulation.
Tests to diagnose MAT include:
Heart monitors are used to record the rapid heartbeat. These include:
If you have a condition that can lead to MAT, that condition should be treated first.
Treatment for MAT includes:
MAT can be controlled if the condition that causes the rapid heartbeat is treated and controlled.
Call your health care provider if:
To reduce the risk of developing MAT, promptly treat the disorders that cause it.

We've some pictures to share about the extras that were roaming Montepulciano today. Each one of them was clad in red. Hoods, robes, t-shirt, caps...everything was red! They couldn't really say anything because the producers have told them that if they were caught they would be expelled from the set and nobody wants to lose the chance to be in the movie.Thanks, Alessandra!
It's said that this afternoon there was a little commotion and they think Robert Pattinson was there, but nobody would say that plainly. There are no pictures of him at the airport because he went out through a side exit allowed to the airport staff only.
Today the Porsche crew finished working and, from what we understood, tomorrow Robert Pattinson himself will shoot some scene, maybe something related to Edward's desperation before the Volturi's verdict. It won't be Kristen Stewart to jump in the fountain but hers stunt double, an italian girl.
Right now, Alan Cappelli, the stunt double for Robert Pattinson is waiting in his car to be called to set. We don't know though what scene they'll shoot.

for some reason I'm upset about it being a stunt-double running through the water, and not Kristen, hah. idk whyReplyDelete
Yeah whats up with that, she cant get wet?ReplyDelete
So it's too dangerous for KStew to run through a fountian? Strange.ReplyDelete
More then likeely, their worried Kristen will pull a Bella and twist an ankle in the water...or, maybe Kristens stunt double has a really difficult leap to make. Maybe we'll be dazzled by her supposed agility. Who knows.ReplyDelete
how long are they supposed to be shotting in italy, because im going on vacation to rome in a couple weeks. And the location is only 2 hours away. I would definetely ride the train to get a glimpse!ReplyDelete
Is that KStew in the center in the top pic? Tenchy- It has been reported about 4 days of shooting in Italy- seems crazy all the work for only 4 days. (The info came from RPattz in one of the interviews:(()ReplyDelete

I am so happy that he managed to go out a side entrance at the airport, I wish all airports could accomodate him in that way, the poor guy.ReplyDelete

If President Barack Obama's short speech Tuesday was supposed to make the case for the United States injecting itself into Syria's civil war, it missed badly.
However, if the speech, as we suspect, was designed to signal the administration is seeking a way out of a diplomatic mess largely of its own making, then it may be productive.
Obama's speech broke little new ground. We find it difficult to believe it swayed many undecided Americans to support his call for limited military strikes against Syria to punish that nation's leadership for using chemical weapons on its own people.
The speech was long on emotion and reiteration, but short on clear explanations of why an attack is in our national interest. Vague assertions about what other tyrants might do are not strong enough to move a nation weary of war and wary of additional foreign entanglements.
The speech stoked the valid observation that the more Obama's administration explains its plans, the more support it loses. That seems especially true in Congress where the president cannot afford to lose a showdown vote.
The first law of holes declares that once in one, it is imperative to stop digging. We hope the wisdom of that proverb is what drove Obama to ask Congress to delay its strike authorization vote while new diplomatic options are explored.
The "new" options center on an off-handed notion floated by Secretary of State John Kerry during a speech Monday that Syria could forestall a U.S. attack if it surrendered its stash of chemical weapons to the international community.
It was a tantalizing gambit. But in the same speech even Kerry acknowledged it was something that Syria likely "cannot do."
But Russian President Vladimir Putin and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad seized the public-relations opportunity. Russia, a staunch ally of Assad, expressed support for such a resolution in the U.N. Security Council and Assad agreed. France, our lone ally for military action, has begun to draft such a resolution.
On the surface, this sounds encouraging. It controls chemical weapons that have heretofore been uncontrolled and it reasonably ensures Assad will not use those weapons in the future. However, weapons experts tell us that the logistics of such an endeavor — especially during a civil war — are dangerous and mind-boggling. Besides, the entire plan hinges on Obama keeping the credible threat of military action on the table, which we are not convinced he can do.
Certainly, diplomatic answers here are better than military ones, but no one should be duped into thinking that a diplomatic solution is close at hand.

Good first effort. Get that pie up off the lowest rack, a middle rack position will do just fine.What did you do for sauce?Loo
The sauce was just 6-in-1; a little bit less than the whole can (maybe 20-22oz) and then we sprinkled some Parmesan cheese and some generic Italian seasonings.
my girlfriend thought the sauce had 'too much tomato flavor'
What did you think? Rethinking it I'm not sure either recommendation from Loo or Randy would solve the issue of too much tomato flavor.If it needs to be toned down I would recommend simmering the tomatoes with whatever seasonings you like and a touch of sugar for about 10-15 minutes then letting it cool and putting it in the fridge.
I use that combination quite often and it is normally a big hit. Did you drain the can? My one suggestion here is use less. For a 13" pan I only use about 2/3 of a can.DKM
Her and I were talking about it yesterday, and neither of us are very good at 'tasting' food.
Drain? No - I didn't! How does that work exactly - use a strainer?
Drain? No - I didn't! How does that work exactly - use a strainer?
ROB!!! DUDE!!! You KEEP what's in the strainer and can do whatever you like with the water/juice drained out into the bowl.Loo
Sorry! Thank you for clarifying. I guess the sauce is thicker than I'd realized. Anyway, I need to pick up a strainer from the store; but I think this is going to help a lot.

U.S. Armor Gets Two for One with Vest Save and Conviction
U.S. Armor was pleased to learn that Aaron Baca Lopez, convicted of shooting Phoenix (AZ) PD Officer Jennifer Moore during a traffic stop, was sentenced to prison terms totaling 115 years this past week. "While we are most happy that Officer Moore was saved by one of our vests, we are also gratified to learn that Lopez was given adequate punishment for his crimes. " said Stephen Armellino, President of U.S. Armor.
Armellino continued: "The court sent the exact message the criminal element needs to receive, but it's equally important that the law enforcement community be assured they are strongly supported." He also noted how ironic it was that Baca's prison sentencing occurred in the same week the NLEMOF announced that tragically, violent and deadly assaults on LEO's have dramatically increased this year.

Vienna, 2 November 2011 – Austrian Vice-Chancellor and Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger expressed great sorrow on the sudden death of the Czech writer, diplomat and former dissident Jiři Gruša.
The significance of Jiři Gruša for Austria was by no means limited to his importance as a contemporary poet and author of European format, Spindelegger said in a tribute: "Jiři Gruša was a living link between the Czech Republic and Austria. His many years as Czech ambassador to Vienna followed by his four year term as director of the Diplomatic Academy in Vienna were marked by his efforts to reinforce the strong cultural, intellectual and political networks that exist between the two countries and also between all the states of Central Europe. Jiři Gruša will remain in our memories as a good neighbour and friend of Austria and as a mediator of the Central European dimension."

Bitcoin Regulation Coming
The group of investors, Silicon Valley bigwigs and financial regulators who gathered at last week's hearing in New York City came to the general conclusion that Bitcoin is worth creating policy to govern the digital currency.
Investors in Bitcoin, such as the Winklevoss twins, Cameron and Tyler, are in favor of setting up minimal regulatory actions to set policy for the integration of Bitcoin into the mainstream economy. They filed a proposal with regulators at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission last July to operate an exchange trade for the digital currency, initially selling $20 million worth of shares.
As the two collectively own 1% of all Bitcoins, it is predictable that they would want some official way to trade them. And the New York Times reported that Barry E. Silbert, the founder of Bitcoin Investment Trust, stated that "it may be appropriate to regulate any transaction that involves an unregulated intermediary converting Bitcoin to dollars on behalf of a third party."
But others were more skeptical.
Fred Wilson of Union Square Ventures wants very little regulation at all, if any. And Richard B. Zabel, prosecutor from the U.S. attorney office in Manhattan, is worried that the currency is too likely to be used to make criminal activity easier and more lucrative. The task now at hand is figuring out how to apply regulation to a thus-far underground currency – one that has been associated with illegal activity and the online black market called the Silk Road – to bring it into the realm of the mainstream economy. For as many worries as there are about Bitcoin's tendency to be used for criminal activity, there are plenty who are using it for legal trade as well.
Of course, the hearings were slightly overshadowed – but not clouded – by the arrest of Charlie Shrem the day prior. Shrem was the CEO of BitInstant, an organization that sells Bitcoins to users. His association with dealing Bitcoins to a person who was also arrested and who dealt directly on the Silk Road highlighted the very anxieties of financial regulators looking for a way to put parameters on the digital currency. The road to regulating Bitcoin will be a long one, but New York could be the first state to do it.

Water is about 12 times as dense as air, so each stroke and kick through it is a mini strength-training exercise. When you swim, every muscle in your body is called into action as you push against the water's resistance. What's more, regular swimming can make you more flexible, something active women struggle with as they get older. Since you weigh only 10 to 15 percent of your land weight in the water, your arms and legs feel lighter and your range of motion increases as you move. Swimming also lengthens your body to its fullest potential, strengthening and stretching otherwise tight, shortened muscles.
The old myth that swimming doesn't burn off fat because your heart doesn't work as hard and your body hangs on to your excess "insulation" in the cool water is just that—a myth. True, your working heart rate can be reduced by as many as 17 beats—or by 10 to 15 percent of your normal working rate on land. But that's because the force of the water actually assists your circulation in helping your heart do its job, and your body temperature is lower in the water, which automatically lowers your heart rate.But that doesn't mean you're not getting a workout. Your lungs actually work harder against the pressure of the water, and your muscles put in overtime keeping you afloat. As a result, you're burning as many calories and conditioning your heart just as well as you would if you were doing most dry land exercises. Your lungs are getting an even better workout.
Swimming is the best way to boost a sagging butt. You see those tight buns in the tank suits of pro swimmers because every kick is powered by the glutes; every lap firms and lifts those muscles. Keep up this butt-building and fat-burning exercise, and you just might find yourself breaking out that thong...at least for private viewings!
* Excerpted from Perfectly Fit by Selene Yeager (Rodale Inc., 2001).
The first thing you need is a place to swim. For most women, the easiest solution is the local YWCA. For a minimal membership fee, most health clubs will allow you access to their pools. And general lap-swimming times are plentiful.
Getting Started
You'll also need a suit. This is the point where many women say, "Thanks, but no thanks." Relax; we're not talking about a flesh-flashing, butt-baring bikini. We're talking about an athletic, supportive swimsuit. You can even find boy-cut styles that look like shorts. Still feeling body-conscious? One trip to the pool will cure you. You won't see a bunch of bathing beauties; you'll see adult women who look just like you, who are there to get in some laps and get on with their lives.
In addition to a swimsuit, you'll need some other accessories, including:
Because they're cheap and they save your eyes from the irritating effects of chlorine, swimming goggles are a must. You'll also see better while you're doing your laps.
Swim Cap
Although it's not a necessity (though some public pools request it), a swimming cap is a definite nicety. If your hair is long, a cap will keep it from tangling. No matter what the length, it'll protect your tresses from the chemicals in the water, which can dry or discolor hair. It's a good idea to look for a silicone cap. It won't pull your hair like a plain rubber one would.
The Usuals
Don't forget a towel for drying off and a water bottle for keeping yourself hydrated (yes, you can get dehydrated in the water).

The naming of Joffrey Lupul as an alternate captain and the announcement of his charity initiative Lupes Troops (granted this doesn't always guarantee a spot in Toronto for the indefinite future) in recent days were both indicators that Nonis and Carlyle see Lupul as a face of the franchise going forward. Faces of the franchise usually need long term contracts, but few would've expected one for Lupul this soon in the season.
When you boil it down, the Leafs just paid Lupul to be the player he was last season for five more seasons after this shortened one. There is some risk in that. Lupul will have entered his thirties by the time the contract takes hold, he's got the history of injuries that he didn't buck even in his comeback season last year (missed sixteen games, would've been more if it didn't happen late in the season), and his resume as a point per game player begins and ends with said single season of 67 points in 66 games.
But I think you have to look at this deal in the wider context of the Leafs' theoretical build towards contention, and the core of the group they intend on doing it with. It would be different if Burke had never traded for a couple of established assets who are now in their prime in 2013 and instead had the Leafs traveling the finish-low, draft-high route. Dave Nonis has to be thinking about Kessel and Phaneuf, the leader of his offense and defense respectively who both are on contracts expiring after next season, when he makes this decision on Lupul. What chance does he have of selling a winning vision to Kessel when the two sides start the negotiating process, presumably this summer, if he's sold off the one offensive talent on the team that has actually helped Kessel touch his potential? There's nothing to indicate either player wants to be anywhere but Toronto going forward, but how do you ask them to buy into the program with a reasonable long term contract, instead of pushing their GM for full market value, when you're still tearing blocks down come the summer of 2013? Between this deal and the Grabovski contract last spring, we're seeing a belief from management in this core group's ability to contend once the right surrounding pieces are in place.
Would I have waited for at least half of this 48-game season to play out, by which point Lupul hopefully has 20 points and is still healthy, before inking the deal? Maybe, but maybe by then the price would've gone up.
We know how talented Phil Kessel is, on this day after he put up two points in the season opener following an eight-month layoff from competitive hockey, his 83rd and 84th points in his last 83 games as a Leaf. It's hard to imagine a player of Lupul's obvious talent, regardless of the health or inconsistency concerns over the course of his career, doing anything but producing on his opposite wing when he's in the lineup, especially when there's chemistry present and their two skill sets are complementary.
Not that these grow on trees, but there's also the potential to augment this line with a number one center that can also bring some defensive proficiency to the table. But that's a discussion for another day.
Notes on the contract:
- 5 years, 26.25 million, with a 5.25 million cap hit.
- Limited no-trade clause included; Lupul can be traded to 14 teams.
- Closest comparables in terms of cap hit, age and length of contract: Jason Pominville, Mikhail Grabovski, Ryan Kesler
- The Leafs have now committed $47 million to 13 players for next season under the projected $64.3 million cap.
- The Leafs now have four players signed past July 1, 2014: Lupul, James van Riesmdyk, Mikhail Grabovski, John Michael Liles
- Lupul and van Riesmdyk are the only two Leafs signed past July 1, 2017.

One of the many things we work at doing well at Laridian is to respond to customer support emails as quickly and accurately as possible. How quickly is determined by when we receive the message and how many other messages are pending. Email is responded to at different times throughout the day depending on who is working tech support that day. Messages left after normal business hours are often responded to in the evening, but may have to wait until the next day.
How accurate the response is determined by the information supplied. Just saying "it doesn't work" doesn't help us to help you. We need detailed information on what's not working, how it's not working, and what you've tried to resolve the problem before contating us. The make and model of your PDA is also helpful since some issues are PDA specific.
Sometimes, though, an unexpected breakdown can occur that befuddles our best laid plans. That's really what this blog article is about. Yesterday (May 23), we discovered that the email replies being sent were not actually being received by our customers. It was discovered when we started receiving numerous messages from customers stating that they never received a reply to a message sent previously. Since I know they've been getting answered promptly (I handle the email replies), that was a concern and some further investigation was done. A problem was found and has been fixed.
If you sent us a message between May 14 – 23 and did not receive a reply, please accept our apologies. I will be working through all messages sent during that time frame and will be resending those replies. I expect to have it completed by the end of the business day, May 24th. If you had sent an email during that time frame and you still have not heard from us by May 25th, please resend your message and it will be answered during our normal business hours.
We do apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

This is my first attempt at doing a tutorial and I must thank MellieKQuilter for actually doing a pillow and helping me correct a few things. These directions are flexible so do a little fudging if you need to.
Finished size - 10x11
Finished pillow 10x10
Pillow Insert
Cut a 10 side strip x44(wof)
Cut that in half to make (2) 10x22 rectangles.
This makes 2 pillow inserts.
Fold in half and sew up each side and across the end leaving about 4 open for turning.
Turn the pillow and stuff well with polyfil stuffing. Sew the opening closed.
Pillow Cover.
Start with a strip of fabric 10 1/2x (WOF)
Cut (2) 3 ½ x 10 ½ strips off of the end. These will be your straps.
You need a piece 10 ½ x 37 to make your bag
Turn the edge of the short end (10) under ¼ and then under ½-1. Stitch along folded edge to hem. Do this to each end. See diagram Hemming Ends.
Lay your strip with the RS (right side) facing up. See diagram Folding Fabric
Take your end on the right and fold it over approximately 10 ½ and pin in place. Take the end on the left and bring it over top of the first folded end up about 10 ½. Each hemmed end should be approximate 1 - 1 ½ from folded edge. Sew along each side with a ¼ seam.
Turn your pillow cover right side out.
Lay your pillow right side out like in the diagram for adding the straps.
We need to box the corners of the bottom of your cover. The bottom should be the left side of your bag with a flap (pocket) on top. Pick up your cover and flip that top pocket back inside out. This will reveal a folded edge. Spread that corner out so the seam goes to the middle. Smooth it out nicely and draw a line approximately ¾ down from the center point. Pin it to hold in place and then stitch across that line. Do the same to the other side. Turn back right side out and you will have your boxed corners. See diagram.
Fold each strap in half the long way and stitch a ¼ seam across one end and down the long side. Turn right side out. Top stitch ¼ around the outside edge. See diagram.
Cut a 4 length of Velcro. Sew one piece to each strap starting at the closed in end. Join the two straps by overlapping the Velcro. Now take the two raw ends, folding the edges under 2 times and sew to the edge of the top of the bag through all layers.
Insert your pillow and you are done. Donate your pillow to your Local Cancer Group or make it a gift for a friend that has just had surgery.

Corbell backs Civic station but questions Mt Ainslie tunnel
A high speed rail station in Civic is the best option for a Canberra leg of the proposed project, according to the ACT Government.
But a proposal to take the line into the city by tunnelling through Mount Ainslie is a "very expensive option," the ACT's Transport Infrastructure Minister Simon Corbell said on Monday.

The minister was reacting to revelations in The Canberra Times that a line down the Majura Valley, through the landmark peak and into Civic via the Ainslie Avenue corridor was one of three options being considered by consultants working on a feasibility study for an east coast network
Mr Corbell told ABC radio that the Civic option would be "transformative" for Canberra.
"I think we have to keep an open mind on all these options and these are options the federal government through its consultants is looking at," the minister said.
"There is no doubt that bringing a very high speed train link into the heart of the city, connecting it with our commercial centre would be a transformative outcome for our city.
"The fact that you could be in Civic and then two hours later be in the CBD of Sydney or Melbourne would be transformative capacity for our city."
But Mr Corbell said that tunnelling through Mount Ainslie to get the line into Civic might be too expensive.
"Now, the option of going under Mt Ainslie obviously is very expensive option and I don't know how seriously the Commonwealth will look at that option," he said.
"But my perspective on this is 'what is the best location for a station?' if there was to be a high speed train built and there's no doubt in my mind that a city station would be the best location.
"How you get there would have to be subject to much more detailed analysis."
The minister said that tunnels were a common feature of high speed rail lines overseas and that some underground work would be required in any large Australian city which would be linked to the proposed network.
The Canberra Airport managing director Stephen Byron, whose company has offered to build a $140million station for a very fast train at the airport, said: ''We've always said that the most important thing about a train is to get one to Canberra and the location of a terminal would be driven by that".
''Until this year, we've been pretty open about whether it be at the city or here at the airport.
''The lessons from the French and from others who done this technology around the world is that even if you are replacing aviation service say between Canberra and Sydney, you'll get a good viability uplift by integrating your stations with your airport terminals.''
