An area once isolated from the rest of North Texas is now much more accessible because of one toll road.
Rapid growth led the North Texas Tollway Authority to take on a massive project several years ago. An extension of the George Bush Turnpike from Hwy 75 all the way down to I-30 which then takes drivers to points east like Rockwall.
Michael Rey with the NTTA says in addition to work commuters, the stretch is appreciated on summer weekends. Rey says use of the eastern leg of the Bush Tpke has continued to increase in the nearly 4 years it's been opened.
Now, Rockwall county is in the midst of making improvements to I-30. You often hear about blocked lanes on 30 near the lake as crews work on improvements to I-30 and the side roads.
In 2008, Rockwall passed a $100 million road improvement package, then a few years later a $59 million package.
Many projects have been completed, but many more are still on the horizon.

The parent company of United Airlines on Friday reported a record loss of $3.2 billion in 2002 as the carrier began soliciting comments on a proposed reorganization plan to emerge from bankruptcy.
Additionally, United said in another report that because of its financial position it was unable to secure contracts to guard against volatile price spikes in jet fuel. That could force the airline to pay market prices for the millions of gallons of fuel used daily for its jets. The development places United, which filed for bankruptcy protection Dec. 9, under even greater financial pressure.
United, which paid an average of 86.5 cents per gallon for jet fuel in the fourth quarter, could see prices soar if there is a war with Iraq. Since Jan. 1 jet fuel prices already have risen 15 percent, according to Ray Neidl, airline analyst for Blaylock & Partners.
As large as the UAL Corp. loss was, it was still 9 percent below the $3.5 billion recorded by rival AMR Corp., the parent of American Airlines. American is the world's largest airline.
Glenn Tilton, chairman and chief executive officer of UAL, said costs were the airline's "single biggest challenge" in 2002.
Despite the airline's efforts to rein in costs during the year, the carrier said its operating expenses rose in the fourth quarter to nearly $4.5 billion compared with $3.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2001. For the year, its expenses fell 14 percent to $17 billion from $19.9 billion in 2001.
For the fourth quarter, UAL reported a net loss of $1.5 billion, or $20.70 per share, more than triple the $308 million, or $5.68 a share loss, recorded in the year-ago period.
The $3.2 billion loss amounted to $53.55 a share, compared with a net loss of $2.2 billion, or $40.04 a share, in 2001.
Still Richard Bittenbender, senior credit officer at Moody's Investors Service, found an upbeat note buried in the gloom, Reuters reported. "The positive surprise was they had more cash than I thought they would," he said.
Including $700 million from a $1.5 billion special bankruptcy loan, the airline said it ended the fourth quarter with $1.3 billion in unrestricted cash.
UAL's financial report came as the airline prepared to begin explaining its reorganization plan. The plan's top priority is to become a tougher competitor against discount carriers, which it faces on 75 percent of its routes.
The airline was the No. 5 carrier at Orlando International Airport in November, the latest month for which figures are available, with about 6.4 percent of OIA's passenger traffic.
The reorganization plan "is a work in progress," said Rich Nelson, a spokesman for United. It calls for the creation of a discount carrier that connects with United's existing hub-and-spoke network.
David Skeel, a bankruptcy and corporate law expert at the University of Pennsylvania law school, said the airline faces many challenges before it can emerge from bankruptcy.
"It's still quite a precarious restructuring. One or two false moves and the whole thing could blow up," he said.

Many authors despair of book signings however, I enjoy not just meeting the readers of my rural romances, The Sovereign Series, but also the opportunity to browse vast shelves of books, old and new At a recent book signing at Beyond the Sea in Lincolnville Beach, Nanette the owner had piled a few books other than my own on the small wooden table at which I sat Naturally, I was curious to see what work was important enough to crowd me out and somewhat antagonistically I picked up a small gray and red paperback with a 1920 s cover featuring the figure of a woman twirling next to the sea in a smart black travelling coat I began reading The Adventures of Elizabeth in Rugen, and was so captivated by the opening line of her second paragraph Round this island Rugen I wished to walk this summer, but no one would walk with me, that I was almost irritated when a fan interrupted me, clutching one of my books to autograph.How rare it seems these days when one discovers a new author It is a luxury much like the discovery of a hidden garden or a new chocolatier In fact, London s Daily Telegraph called this book a delicious confection Mary Annette Beauchamp was an English writer born in Australia in 1866 Her family later emigrated back to England, and in 1891 she married Count Henning August von Arnim Schlagenthin, a Prussian aristocrat, and thus became herself a Countess or Grafin The couple settled at Nassenheide, Pomerania, where the von Arnim s had their family estate, and Mary began to have babies and take up gardening as a vocation When her husband was thrown in debtor s prison, von Arnim adopted the pen name Elizabeth and wrote the best selling book, Elizabeth and her German Garden. The book was so popular it was reprinted 20 times during the first year of publication.What makes von Arnim s semi autobiographical writing so irresistible are her amazing powers of description combined with a charming wit She describes not only the sea and the woods and the fields and the birds and the sky in minutest detail, but also the workings of the human heart, mind and soul with a precision laced with gentle irony Her lovely ramblings make one want to be with her or have her with one, perhaps as a best friend Indeed, there is a strain of loneliness that pervades her writing, which searches out and discovers that same unmentionable loneliness within our own souls In The Adventures of Elizabeth in Rugen, von Arnim sets out one week in summer to explore the island of Rugen in her coach and horses ferried to the island by a nervous boatsman accompanied by her faithful maid Gertrud along for propriety s sake knitting wordlessly and somewhat relentlessly Von Arnim s support crew indulges every whim of her heart, stopping hither and thither in villages, by the wayside, in the woods, by the seashore every place a thing of beauty catches her eye In delicious detail von Arnim describes the scents, sounds, tastes of her adventurous journey until you are filled with the urge to get out a map and track down the island of Rugen, feeling sure it must be the most wonderful place on earth even though you have never heard of it Apparently, Rugen was a common vacation place for the Prussians and Germans during the early 20th century, and please do not ask me the difference between the two, because I do not know, but von Arnim makes a distinction.Little complications arise during von Arnim s travels, of course, from her inability to find suitable lodgings to her almost unavoidable encounter with her long lost cousin Charlotte, a staunch bluestocking feminist, who is on the run from her elderly Professor husband When Charlotte decides to join von Arnim, the trip hilariously becomesabout Charlotte s escaping than von Arnim enjoying her own vacation escape from her husband and children Indeed, one of the most interesting and endearing aspects of von Arnim s character is that she seems unable to resist the demands and commands of the stronger characters within her orbit, such as her cousin, and her husband, whom she lovingly and ironically labels The Man of Wrath. Who of us doesn t hanker to have the courage to clearly label such indomitable characters in our own lives Von Arnim s tongue in cheek tittle tattle about these creatures whose influence she yields to is so delicious it s almost sinful.As soon as I was home from my book signing, I went into my bedroom, shut the door, and didn t come out again until I had finished reading The Adventures of Elizabeth in Rugen. I have since proceeded to devour as many of von Arnim s books as I can find, including her celebrated Elizabeth and Her German Garden and the soulful A Solitary Summer I was also pleasantly surprised to discover that von Arnim is the author of the inspiring book The Enchanted April, which has been adapted for Broadway as well as made into a wonderful motion picture.I can t say enough about von Arnim s writing and tragic personal history although her first marriage was unhappy, she married again after von Arnim died, only to be evendisappointed in love I m sorry we never had the opportunity to meet she died in 1941 at the age of 74 because I feel sure that we would have been good friends, nay, the best of friends. Sadly cannot find the exact edition of this book by Gutenberg Project that I downloaded to my kindle for free Both my husband and I read this book having seen it referred to in a walking program Wanderlust with Julia Bradbury and having relatives that vacation on Rugen annually It distresses me that the book descriptions are often incorrect for the various editions Elizabeth in 1904 was a lady before her timesshe wanted to walk Rugen and experience it totally but could not get a woman friend to accompany her so off she goes with her driver, August and her MAID the wonderful character Gertrud, two horses to draw the carriage and off they go Along the way she runs into various characters and situations and her cousin Charlotte A somewhat frustrated early feminist attempting to spread the word of liberation to all females within her reach and avoid her aging doddering professor husband The two British visitors to the Island, mother and son and Charlotte s Professor husband and Charlotte herself all seem to weave in and out of the story while everyone moves around the island meeting up here and there The humor and wit of Elizabeth s descriptions of the frustrations large and small of NOT getting her solitude and her beautifully expressed joy of the nature in every respect make the book a true pleasure to read I can well understand why her writing was and remains popular We took note, with some pleasure, in the second series of Downton Abbey..I think episode two wherein her famous book, Elizabeth and Her German Garden was made reference to.One has to try and put themselves back into another time in this world when such manners and customs were necessary and treasured In many ways, I wish we could seeof these sensibilities today.A joy for a change of pace I am not reading this in German however it is by far the best picture The modern cover for the English version is this WTF hattip wandaful Available on Project Gutenberg I shall read this on my laptop, a page at a time Life is grand, thank you Wanda.Opening Every one who has been to school and still remembers what he was taught there, knows that R gen is the biggest island Germany possesses, and that it lies in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Pomerania.She finds a travel guide to R gen that has this remarkable paragraphHearest thou the name R gen, so doth a wondrous spell come over thee Before thine eyes it rises as a dream of far away, beauteous fairylands Images and figures of long ago beckon thee across to the marvellous places where in grey prehistoric times they dwelt, and on which they have left the shadow of their presence And in thee stirs a mighty desire to wander over the glorious, legend surrounded island Cord up, then, thy light bundle, take to heart Shylock s advice to put money in thy purse, and follow me without fear of the threatening sea sickness which may overtake thee on the short crossing, for it has never yet done any oneharm than imposing on him a rapidly passing discomfort 3 Enchanted April4 Elizabeth and her German Garden The Adventures of Elizabeth in R genTR Vera Wanda has found that this story is the basis for du Maurier s Rebecca so I am keen to have a looksee Rugen is the largest island Germany possesses It is 32 miles long and 25 miles wide with a population today of 77,000 people Although it is covered with farms and hotels today, it is rich with history from the Stone Age forward, since it was an important fortress in the Baltic Sea to regulate sea trade It has been fought over since it was taken from a germanic tribe in 500 BCE by the Danish Prince Waldemar I Later it was claimed by Pomerania then Sweden and later Russia Elizabeth visits it in 1905 and sees it much as it is today, one of the most popular German vacation spots Elizabeth goes from town to town with her maid in her carriage looking for an inn to spend the night She likes the idea of turning her back on duties and exploring the world She has three young daughters and an estate to take care of at home in Miltzow She spends two weeks on Rugen describing each stop Elizabeth enjoys the forests, the sea, and the landscape of each town Here she describes sitting in the woods behind Binz when mere quiet weather, trees, and grass, sea and clouds, can make you forget that life has anything in it but rapture, can make you drink in heaven with every breath How long will it last, this joy of living Elizabeth writes with wisdom and at times seems modern Recommended especially when visiting Rugen. In 1901, the Countess von Arnim Schlagenthin decides to go on a walking tour of Rugen, Germany s largest island off the Pomeranian coast None of her friends want to go with her, so she decides to go alone, in a carriage instead of walking She has an idea of writing a travel guide of the best inns on the island and best places to swim, etc She accomplishes this her gift of poetically describing nature s gifts is admirably suited to this task , but her tour of Rugen ends up being an adventure in every sense She finds herself in the middle of a marital spat, having to think up a scheme to get the married couple back together and rid herself of their fighting, at the same time trying to avoid the company of a bishop s wife and her son who appear to be following her around the island A delicious treat of lyrical beauty and witty observations by a unique voice that still brings delight to readers over 100 years later. I was wanting to read this book after recently finding out it is the third of a series that does not need to be read together because each book stands on its own but having read Elizabeth s German Garden and Solitary Summer, and enjoying Elizabeth von Arnim s journal like style Elizabeth has such a refreshing air about her that has me, enjoying all she says even though all the stories I have read of her including The Enchanted April are not story driven but people driven You are driven forward by the conversations and actions of the peoplethan a plot You are awakened to life, spirituality with regards to nature and purpose of it all Her books have a loving of nature that one cannot help feel for naturedeeply and wanting to explore it deeps I had never heard of the island Rugen before but I felt I traveled it in a way with her When reading this kind of travel guide which in reality turns into a human interaction story, you are interested in how things turn out and once again can Elizabeth obtain that sought out solitary thoughtfulness which she loves to obtain when she commutes with nature but once again relatives or friends show up to bring that reality to restriction because of their want of constant attention Humor is always present but being a natural one with regards to human beings I find these stories interestingso for when they were written pre world war 1, independence of women being very limited and yet always Elizabeth brings it forth in her writing and looking at both sides I wonder what side she was really on Si conclude cos l ideale trilogia con protagonista Elizabeth In realt questo terzo episodio scollegato dai precedenti e non compaiono pi la sua bella casa, il suo strepitoso e sterminato giardino, le sue tre figliolette e il marito, bens soltanto lei in compagnia della sua cameriera e del suo cocchiere su un isola del Baltico, R gen appunto Ovviamente questo viaggio di undici giorni vedr apparire anche altri personaggi che daranno vita a delle scenette esilaranti In tutta onest questo tipo di storielle mi farebbe venire il latte alle ginocchia, ma non quando sono raccontate dalla penna meravigliosa della Von Arnim Ho sottolineato tante frasi ironiche e mi sono divertita pi volte a leggere le sue riflessioni scritte in maniera impeccabile L autrice possiede una padronanza del lessico che mi lascia ogni volta estasiata. A charming travelogue from the turn of the 20th century that launched me on a trip to Rugen with fellow fans of Elizabeth von Arnim She was an astute observer of Germans taking their leisure on a beautiful Baltic Island. This is the lady equivalent of Starship Troopers You can read a satiric commentary, or read a lovely and addicting travel narrative of Baltic resort life 100 years ago Words are carefully, beautifully chosen even the descriptions of scenery are interesting , and it s worth a look just to admire the casual precision of language and tone Meanwhile, everyone in the book is so miserable The women are furiously, silently frustrated with the social conventions that force them to do what they least want to the men are oblivious and talk endlessly It s a wildly fun read. InThe Real Elizabeth Holidayed On The Baltic Island Of Rugen With Just Her Maid, A Coachman, A Carriage Piled With Luggage, And A Woman Friend From Such Unpromising Beginnings Elizabeth Weaves A Captivating Farrago Around Her Encounters There S The Snobbish Bishop S Wife And Her Personable, Handsome Son, A Dressmaker And, Astonishingly, A Long Lost Cousin Charlotte Who Is Trying To Evade The Pursuit Of Her Husband, The Maddeningly Genial Old Professor

The Need For Table Ranking in Texas Maintain'em Poker
"HoldBasketball is still a lot like having intercourse: Ranking is all " – WPT Host Vince van Patten
At Texas maintain 'em poker, even ascertaining your competitions' playing variations is equally critical, however gaining consciousness from your circumstance is key. Dining table position is at which you sit in relation to the dealer's switch. The three basic dining table positions on the market are now early (the Big Blind, Small Blind and Under the Gun), late and middle (which includes the cut-off as well as the Twist ). The importance of standing is all the reason the dealer button rotates after each hand.
The durability of position originates from how the gambling moves in a clockwise manner. After playing in late posture — which is the most powerful placement — you get to realize how other players respond to their hands until the activity arrives to you. Even the Pokerism(TM)"Ranking is strength" comes in this very simple concept.
Nevertheless your hole cards really are crucial lintasqq, the best way to utilize situation to decide your gambling strategy is easily the most significant tool within your poker skill collection. Certainly one of the gravest problems you'll be able to make is playing with your starting hands the same, regardless of what place you're in. Nevertheless you may comprehend the strength of participating in with premium starting hands, erroneously entering every single pot without even thinking standing is costly. The further information you have, the more the further you raise your chances of winning the other hand.
Your margin for error is much less whenever you are sitting in early location. If you gamble using a borderline hand racket from ancient placement, it is easy to get a raise and even re-raise by players betting after you. This places you at the untenable position of instantly being forced to choose whether your hand is worth losing the added processors (2 or three modest stakes in limitation, to an All-in in nolimit ) only to find the flop. In the event you make the proper move and foldyou get rid of the fries you put inside the pot. Hence, in the event that you're in first positionyou should confine the palms you play to the top premium hands, because you don't have a manner of knowing what another players from the category are all not holding. Statistically a minumum of one of the players behind you also has a top notch starting hand. Although big and smallish blinds are in historical position, they got the advantage of acting last minute.
If you're playing from middle posture, then you might have players awaiting for actions and others that have already playedwith. Though the right-hand pick rises in mid position, in the majority of situations you are still confined to taking part in strong starting handson. Since several players might maintain the bud, you improve odds if playing poorer fingers, but still have better risk with the people supporting.
Poker Legend Doyle Brunson formerly remarked,"When I had standing on a person , I might not even have to appear at my cards" Being in late standing that has a fantastic hands has major advantages around being premature having a superior hand. A new player in late position carrying a premium hand has got the capacity to control the pot size, making future stakes easier to call the river or turn. Late posture is particularly important if playing marginal hands, including suited-connectors or Aces with feeble kickers. With the main advantage of seeing with your competitions' activities before you behave, you can enlarge the scope of one's starting arms, frequently playing poorer fingers from late position. If you do not consider standing when playing a hand, you also give a advantage to players that actually do understand its importance.
Since the button remains your most powerful starting place, many players make an effort to bluff or even over-bet a weak hand in this position. Gaining knowledge of other people' styles helps to determine if they truly are overplaying a hand by the match or even truly have a strong hand. It additionally supplies a hint for how strongly you ought to protect your blinds.

Ten Commandments for Building a Growing Company
1. Thou Shalt Have a Pre-Incorporation Agreement
Limit the primary participants to people who can consciously agree upon and contribute directly to that which the enterprise is to accomplish, for whom, and by when. Only consider investors that bring more than money to the table: e.g. connections, marketing skills, technical expertise, etc.
2. Thou Shalt Acknowledge That the Customer is King
Define the business of the enterprise in terms of what is to be bought, precisely by whom, and why. Avoid disaster by testing the market prior to development of a product.
3. Though Shalt Use a Rifle Not a Shotgun
Concentrate all available resources on accomplishing two or three specific, operational objectives within a given time period.
4. Thou Shalt Not Fail to Plan Because Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail
Prepare and work from a written plan that delineates who in the total organization is to do what, by when. Use your business plan as a budget. If you cannot stick to that budget, your business plan is too ambitious.
5. Thou Shalt Pick the Key Employees and Pay a Premium
Employ key people with proven records of success at doing what needs to be done, in a manner consistent with the value system of the enterprise. When in doubt, hire your biggest or best competitor's key people. Free agency works in business too.
6. Thou Shalt Reward the Superstars
Reward individual performance that exceeds agreed upon standards. Move the non-producers into administrative positions, or replace them.
7. Thou Shalt Expand Methodically
Expand methodically from a profitable base toward a balanced business. A smaller, more focused business can sometimes be far more profitable and stable than a large and fractured one.
8. Thou Shalt Acknowledge That Cash Flow is King!
Project, monitor, and conserve cash, and protect credit capability. Over-expansion, failure to see coming trends or competition, and poor credit policies are your biggest enemies.
9. Thou Shalt Hire and Fire Properly
Maintain a detached point of view. Never hire family or friends, unless you are also willing to fire them. Be decisive and do what is best for the business. This could included firing yourself and hiring a more qualified manager!
10. Thou Shalt Acknowledge Change
Anticipate constant change by periodically testing adopted business plans for their consistency with the realities of the world marketplace. Read Kenichi Ohmae's books, "The End of the Nation State", "The Borderless World", and "the Mind of the Strategist".

Home Chic Home
Home Chic Home was created as a unique development and housing company. It's a developer house that uses a completely new look in construction, with a unique personal approach to its clients.
"It was always my philosophy to avoid mass produce works but to develop unique projects every time - projects that would be considered as "chic" even after many years.
The boutique style reflects my desire to give my clients exactly what they need. My team and I, have the knowledge, the expertise and the experience that allows us to provide our customers with top quality work on time and according to the schedule"
I am the owner of a group of companies, including a design, an architectural firm, a construction and developing company, as well as a company involved in lifestyle related projects. I've been working in the construction industry for 22 years and I'm a happy mother of three wonderful children.
I love my job. I think this is the key of my success. I enjoy every moment of the workday. We create from scratch a new home or we remodel an old one to create a new lifestyle for a family. We enjoy success and popularity from our customers because we put our soul in their homes.
"It was always my philosophy to avoid mass produce works but to develop unique projects every time - projects that would be considered as "chic" even after many years.

- Elena, what does "personalized approach" means for you and your company?
We are passionate about design and very approachable and open to engage with our customers. For us they are full partners through the development process.
- How do you start your projects? Where are do the pay your attention first?
In the beginning our team of architects and designers creates an architectural drawing. Then we bring this plan to life, turning it into a luxury or a functional home, according to the needs of our client.
We pay special attention to the unique use of space and we provide our customers with excellent results through our continuous after sales service, which is what drives our company growth.

Our partners are some of the best Italian companies offering excellent quality and design in finishing materials: Indeed, we choose only high quality materials and this the reason why we monitor and attend exhibitions all around the globe - to choose the best products for our clients.
- Cyprus is going through hard times. The preferences and priorities of both customers and their businesses, change. Have you felt these changes? Have these changes affected your business?
There's no "universal" project that can satisfy all customers. Before we start, we study the market and specify our target audience.
We define the preferences of the target group and focus how to meet its needs. After all, our developing company - has different type of projects in various areas of Limassol.
When a client asks us to design and build a home or an office from scratch, then we work closely with him, weighing carefully all the major and minor characteristics of the project, from the idea to its final completion.
- Your projects improve the architectural image of Limassol. Where do you get your ideas from?
Our designers and architects are young men and women, passionate about their work, who joint our team after they received high and specialized education abroad, transferring their knowledge and creativity in the projects, aiming to leave a mark on the history of our city. I believe that one should constantly improve and be in search for new ideas, technologies and design solutions.
- 6. What are your new projects and future plans?
One of my new developing projects is the Royal Gardens Residence. It will be near the sea, with two swimming pools, luxurius green gardens, a sauna and a gym playground area.
Other projects include The Edge, a commercial project, located near the Limassol Courthouse, Paradise Villa in Moutayiaka area, Cityliving Apartments in the city center, near Makedonias street and the Modern Hill, which are five houses in Agios Athanasios area.

The "Our Father"
When Jesus' taught His disciples how to pray, He gave them the "Our Father" (Matthew 6:9-13; Luke 11:1-4). They were not to mindlessly recite it, saying it with their lips only (Matthew 15:8; Mark 7:6) but rather that the words would be said with the heart and mind and become a vehicle for communion with the Father.

The Absence of God

As we start learning to pray, I would like to make it clear that what I mean by 'learning to pray' is not an attempt to justify or explain this in a speculative way. Rather, I would like to point out what one should be aware of, and what one can do if one wishes to pray. Continue reading "The Absence of God"

Ancient Polymer History
Originally many natural polymers were used Wood – Rubber Cotton – Wool Leather – Silk Oldest known uses of "Modern Polymers" Rubber balls used by Incas Noah used pitch (a natural polymer) for the ark – as had all ancient mariners!
Polymer Composition Most polymers are hydrocarbons
– i.e. made up of H and C (we also recognize Si-H 'silicones') Saturated hydrocarbons Each carbon bonded to four other atoms CnH2n+2
Unsaturated Hydrocarbons
Double & triple bonds relatively reactive – can form new bonds Double bond – ethylene or ethene - CnH2n 4-bonds, but only 3 atoms bound to C's Triple bond – acetylene or ethyne - CnH2n-2
Isomerism Isomerism two compounds with same chemical formula can have quite different structures Ex: C8H18 n-octane 2-methyl-4-ethyl pentane (isooctane)
Chemistry of Polymers Free radical polymerization
Initiator: example - benzoyl peroxide
Chemistry of Polymers Initiator: example - benzoyl peroxide
Free radical polymerization (addition polymerization) Initiator: example - benzoyl peroxide
Condensation Polymerization
Water is "Condensed out" during polymerization of Nylon Some of the original monomer's materials are shed (condensed out) during polymerization process Process is conducted in the presence of a catalyst Water, CO2 are commonly condensed out but other compounds can be emitted including HCN or other acids
Bulk or Commodity Polymers
Relatively few polymers responsible for virtually all polymers sold – these are the bulk or commodity polymers
NOTE: See Table 15.3 for commercially important polymers – including trade names
MOLECULAR WEIGHT • Molecular weight, Mi: Mass of a mole of chains.
Lower M higher M Simple for small molecules All the same size Number of grams/mole Polymers – distribution of chain sizes Mw is more sensitive to higher molecular weights Adapted from Fig. 14.4, Callister 7e.
Molecular Weight Calculation
Example: average mass of a class
Degree of Polymerization, n
n = number of repeat units per chain ni = 6 Chain fraction mol. wt of repeat unit i
Molecular Structures • Covalent chain configurations and strength:
B ranched Cross-Linked Network Linear secondary bonding Direction of increasing strength Adapted from Fig. 14.7, Callister 7e.
Polymers – Molecular Shape
Conformation – Molecular orientation can be changed by rotation around the bonds note: no bond breaking needed Adapted from Fig. 14.5, Callister 7e.
Polymers – Molecular Shape
Configurations – to change must break bonds Stereoisomerism mirror plane
Tacticity Tacticity – stereoregularity of chain
isotactic – all R groups on same side of chain syndiotactic – R groups alternate sides atactic – R groups random
cis/trans Isomerism cis trans cis-isoprene (natural rubber)
bulky groups on same side of chain trans trans-isoprene (gutta percha) bulky groups on opposite sides of chain
Copolymers two or more monomers polymerized together
Adapted from Fig. 14.9, Callister 7e. two or more monomers polymerized together random – A and B randomly vary in chain alternating – A and B alternate in polymer chain block – large blocks of A alternate with large blocks of B graft – chains of B grafted on to A backbone A – B – random alternating block graft
Polymer Crystallinity
Adapted from Fig , Callister 7e. Ex: polyethylene unit cell Crystals must contain the polymer chains in some way Chain folded structure Adapted from Fig , Callister 7e.
Polymer Crystallinity
amorphous region Polymers rarely exhibit 100% crystalline Too difficult to get all those chains aligned crystalline region • % Crystallinity: how much is crystalline. -- TS and E often increase with % crystallinity. -- Annealing causes crystalline regions to grow. % crystallinity increases. Adapted from Fig , Callister 6e. (Fig is from H.W. Hayden, W.G. Moffatt, and J. Wulff, The Structure and Properties of Materials, Vol. III, Mechanical Behavior, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1965.)
Mechanical Properties
i.e. stress-strain behavior of polymers brittle polymer FS of polymer ca. 10% that of metals plastic elastomer elastic modulus – less than metal Adapted from Fig. 15.1, Callister 7e. Strains – deformations > 1000% possible (for metals, maximum strain ca. 100% or less)

Inset figures along plastic response curve adapted from Figs & 15.13, Callister 7e. (Figs & are from J.M. Schultz, Polymer Materials Science, Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1974, pp )
Predeformation by Drawing
• Drawing…(ex: monofilament fishline) -- stretches the polymer prior to use -- aligns chains in the stretching direction • Results of drawing: -- increases the elastic modulus (E) in the stretching direction -- increases the tensile strength (TS) in the -- decreases ductility (%EL) • Annealing after drawing... -- decreases alignment -- reverses effects of drawing. • Comparable to cold working in metals! Adapted from Fig , Callister 7e. (Fig is from J.M. Schultz, Polymer Materials Science, Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1974, pp )

Polymer Fracture Crazing Griffith cracks in metals
– spherulites plastically deform to fibrillar structure – microvoids and fibrillar bridges form fibrillar bridges microvoids crack alligned chains Note: crack spreads by breaking C-C bonds Ductile plastics have large craze zones that absorb large amounts of energy as it spreads Adapted from Fig. 15.9, Callister 7e.
Polymer Additives Improve mechanical properties, processability, durability, etc. Fillers Added to improve tensile strength & abrasion resistance, toughness & decrease cost ex: carbon black, silica gel, wood flour, glass, limestone, talc, etc. Plasticizers Added to reduce the glass transition temperature Tg commonly added to PVC - otherwise it is brittle Polymers are almost never used as a pure material Migration of plasticizers can be a problem
Polymer Additives Stabilizers Antioxidants UV protectants Lubricants
Added to allow easier processing "slides" through dies easier – ex: Na stearate Colorants Dyes or pigments Flame Retardants Cl/F & B
Processing of Plastics
Thermoplastic – can be reversibly cooled & reheated, i.e. recycled heat till soft, shape as desired, then cool ex: polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, etc. Thermoset when heated forms a network degrades (not melts) when heated mold the prepolymer then allow further reaction ex: urethane, epoxy Can be brittle or flexible & linear, branching, etc.

ABS – A Polymerized "Alloy"
ABS, Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene Made up of the 3 materials: acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene. The material is located under the group styrene plastic. Styrene plastics are in volume one of the most used plastics. Properties The mechanical properties for ABS are good for impact resistance even in low temperatures. The material is stiff, and the properties are kept over a wide temperature range. The hardness and stiffness for ABS is lower than for PS and PVC. Weather and chemical resistance The weather resistance for ABS is restricted, but can be drastically improved by additives as black pigments. The chemical resistance for ABS is relatively good and it is not affected by water, non organic salts, acids and basic. The material will dissolve in aldehyde, ketone, ester and some chlorinated hydrocarbons. Processing ABS can be processed by standard mechanical tools as used for machining of metals and wood. The cutting speed need to be high and the cutting tools has to be sharp. Cooling is recommended to avoid melting of the material. If the surface finish is of importance for the product, the ABS can be treated with varnish, chromium plated or doubled by a layer of acrylic or polyester. ABS can be glued to it self by use of a glue containing dissolvent. Polyurethane based or epoxy based glue can be used for gluing to other materials.
A Processing Movie: Calloway Golf:
Summary • General drawbacks to polymers:
-- E, sy, Kc, Tapplication are generally small. -- Deformation is often T and time dependent. -- Result: polymers benefit from composite reinforcement. • Thermoplastics (PE, PS, PP, PC): -- Smaller E, sy, Tapplication -- Larger Kc -- Easier to form and recycle • Elastomers (rubber): -- Large reversible strains! • Thermosets (epoxies, polyesters): -- Larger E, sy, Tapplication -- Smaller Kc And Remember: Table 15.3 Callister 7e Is a Good overview of applications and trade names of polymers.

Answers to Questions
1. In view of sharply declining state appropriations, what steps should Penn State be taking to secure its financial future?
State contributions to Penn State's budget are well below the national average of 19% at just 7%, with next year projected at 4.5%. With ten state representatives on the Board, including the governor, a renewed push to persuade state authorities to re-prioritize their spending decisions should be initiated both privately and publicly. Penn State makes a $17 billion economic impact on the state, a return of 25 to 1 for every state dollar invested.
A newly awakened alumni base, eager to make changes to the existing board governance, is an important group whose support and action should be enlisted to support this lobbying effort. They have shown that when the stakes are high, they are there for their university. The stakes couldn't be higher: receiving a college education is part of the American Dream.
Cutting costs is an obvious critical component, with all current operating budgets scrutinized for savings and efficiency possibilities, and planned major projects reviewed and shelved if not absolutely necessary. Raising tuition is a last resort, given the already onerous debt levels students struggle with at $1 trillion nationwide. The mix, however, could be changed, admitting more out-of-state students (currently at 20%) who pay nearly double the tuition. High-margin online education can be prioritized.
The endowment's performance, an important source of operating income at many schools, should be reviewed and evaluated, as it is below relevant ten-year and twenty-year benchmarks. Top performing endowments have outperformed Penn State by close to 50%.
2. The rising cost of tuition nationally is making college less affordable for many students. Outline the steps you believe Penn State should be taking to address the issue.
Tuition has been steadily climbing for over a decade at a rate of over 8%, faster than increases in the cost-of-living and medical expenses, with most projections to continue at 6%+. Most analyses show that tuition increases have been driven by rising spending on administrative and student support services; an escalating amenities arms race as colleges compete to attract the best and the brightest of a rising number of applications by building bigger and better facilities; and the need to make up significant reductions in government subsidies. The latter have been steadily reduced since 1978, when federal, state and local governments contributed 50% of revenues: by 2009, they contributed just 32%. The national average for tuition as a percentage of revenue is 22%: at Penn State, it is 78%.
As outlined in the previous answer, many steps can be considered to halt or slow tuition hikes: campaigning for more state aid; comprehensive cost-cutting; increasing high-margin online enrollment; endowment performance review; changing the mix of the student body to higher-paying, out-of state students. The latter would engender a serious reevaluation of Penn State's widely presumed mission of educating primarily Pennsylvania residents.
At the heart of the budding debate, too, about whether to remain public or to go private, is whether going private can allow us to be more flexible and efficient in resource allocation, closing or cutting various offshoots they may be starving the main corpus of needed resources, yet contribute little to the university mission.
3. What form should Penn State's land-grant mission take in the 21st century?
The land-grant university system was established in 1862 through the visionary Morrill act to insure that a university education was not just for the wealthy and the elite, but would be widely available to all; to offer instruction in the applied sciences, engineering and the "practical arts;" and to support economic development within states and the country as a whole.
For 150 years, Penn State has embraced and preserved these core values by providing access to education for the many (e.g., some 80% of all minority students attend research universities), and by sharing research and knowledge to help solve some of society's most pressing problems with practical solutions. Yet the university has also evolved to stay current with the complex needs of today's students and modern, world-class research universities. Public service and outreach on a world-wide level remain fundamental to Penn State's stated mission of "Teaching, Research, Service," and is widely regarded as one of the world's best research universities, e.g., we have the #1 educational online site ("World Campus"), sharing our resources worldwide; and we should keep it that way. Government seems ignorant of the broader social and economic contributions of the land-grant institution, and continues to slash funding to an unsustainable degree. How do we continue to provide education, research and public service when many land-grant functions provided by the university contribute mightily to the state and its denizens yet have no offsetting income source? We must innovate in what we offer and how.
