Abstract: A brick cleaning system has: a frame; a first saw comprising a first motor and a first saw blade driven by the first motor, the first saw being connected to the frame; a second saw comprising a second motor and a second saw blade driven by the first motor, the second saw being connected to the frame; and a brick cart connected to the frame. The brick cart is configured to hold a brick. The brick cart selectively translates relative to the frame for feeding the brick in a space between the first and second saw blades such that the first and second saw blades remove mortar from opposite sides of the brick. A method for cleaning used bricks is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for conducting a management session between a supervisor and an employee or other subordinate. The system utilizes a handheld personal computer that is programmed with multiple supervisory functions, which are displayed in an integrated format to reduce the number of supervisory sessions required for a given employee. The system also provides for the capture and storage of automatic work measurement data, which can be integrated with other work measurement data captured by one or more sensing devices within the employee's workspace, and performance to standards can be reviewed in real time via real-time alerts or at the end of the evaluation.
