In this Shaun of the Dead style zombie comedy, Drex Greene (Napoleon Dynamite's Jon Heder), a confused zombie who can't be any deader, tries to solve the case of the mystery pill that left him drowned in a bathtub. With the help of his wannabe filmmaker roommate Matt (The Daily Show's Josh Gad) and the sexy med student Cassie (Breaking Bad's Krysten Ritter), who first discovers Drex as he unzips himself from his own body bag, the three begin to uncover leads about why his death didn't stick, why a mystery online chat buddy is after him and why he's starting to show signs of superpowers. Will they figure out why Drex is only sort of dead? Will Cassie discover ancient Zombie secrets? Will Matt get a film career out of it? Or is falling in love actually what Drex needs to do to stay alive? Woke up Dead co-stars Wayne Knight (Seinfeld) and Jean Smart (24, Frasier).

With departure for Cannes only days away, the specter of drifting volcano ash inspires its own shivery anticipation of the festival, and not in a good way. Cannes is a convention city year around, and a new festival or international congress moves in pretty much as soon as the previous one moves out. It's not like you could extend your hotel stay on the spur of the moment, and at Riviera prices, who would want to?
I'm hoping the only eruptions are of the cinematic kind. For two weeks every May, the Cannes Film Festival is like a volcano blowing its top, spewing new movies day and night. In view of this massive flow, it's a rather silly insiders' game to speculate on good years vs. bad years. With hundreds of films to choose from, taking into account the official selections and the film market, this huge festival is what you make it. Every year is a good year. Looking for great art? There's always some to be found. Looking for low-down-sleaze? There's more of that than you even want to know about. Looking for new films from Latvia, for instance? Take your pick, and get the scoop on the state of the Latvian film industry from an eager sales agent while you're at it.
Every year as Cannes looms, I'm reminded of the puckish advice of British director Mike Leigh ("Happy-Go-Lucky," "Vera Drake"), pronounced many years ago when he was on the festival jury. At the jury press conference, Leigh was asked about his expectations. "The festival is like a lemon," he said, "you just have to suck it and see how it tastes." As luck would have it, Leigh will be premiering his new film "Another Year" in the competition. I'm looking forward to seeing what flavor this one adds to the festival.

I have just subscribed and paid for a premium plus subscription but cannot search for any census records etc without paying an additional yearly £6.25 a month fee ?
The premium plus fee seems awfully expensive to only be able to look at mine and others family trees - am I missing something ?
i have cancelled my subscription and asked for a refund and hopefully I can change to a subscription where I can search all the records to continue my research.
i wondered if anyone could offer any advice ?
many thanks
For the on-line tree a policy decision was apparently made to do relationship calculations for direct ancestors and up to 2nd cousins only for trees with more than 5000 people in the tree. In FTB calculations for more distant relationships are still being done for trees with more than 5000 people, but the alert and option of requesting alternate line calculations has disappeared.
SmartMatches has gone bad like Product Suggetions. Look at the bottom of the last page for new postings.
Price Buhrman
I noticed that too.
Is it a difficult issue to resolve?
Its a bit annoying-- can it be fixed ....Please?
The subject line in my last post was chopped short!
I have never received a notice of a Comment, and the Comments I have made have never resulted in a reply.
Is this FTB or the online tree?
I arranged it, thanks
I was invited to myheritage.com by my step father, and accepted his invite and created an account. I would also like to have access to a second tree, my mother's tree, but she is not able to invite me and I am not able to access her family tree, it says it's private.
How can I join my mother's family tree and make that one my default?
Hello Esther,
Thank you for writing on our Forum.
Your mother can invite you using the same e-mail address that you are already registered on MyHeritage. She can visit this link to learn how to invite you:
Moreover, if you are reaching her site where it says it's private, you will probably see a link for you to request membership on her site, as in the example image below this message.
Best regards,
What example?
Second inconsistency is with the Birthday Notifications from the site, different people get different notices, some with missing information.
Using a mobile is not your only problem.
What youy want to do, seems to me, to be WAY beyound the capability of myheritage dev team-- perhaps in 10 or so years.
You are a person way ahead of your time.
Happy Waiting
It is only possible to merge two family tree projects using Family Tree Builder software. Nevertheless, we generally do not recommend merging large family trees, as duplicate information has to be deleted manually and inconsistencies within the family tree might occur.
If you're interested in this, I recommend to take a look at the following FAQ:
How do I merge two family trees?
Please note, you will not actually see the new functions, but you will be able to use them such as confirming or rejecting Smart Matches.
May I suggest
A. To merge all trees into one tree (forest). The benefit of this will be simle support, no duplicates, single edit (if needed), all-in-one (all site members are working for one project), increased viability of the site, etc...
B. To express the need and to push MyHeritage development team to develop extended access and rights funcionality. The benefit of this would be securing the required privacy.
The big difference IMHO if you pay is access to smart matches and record matches. These have helped my research a lot, but I guess that depends on if someone else is researching your ancestors (or there will be no smart matches) and if there are relevant records.
I'd recommend you to use the web interface for that since those functions are a bit limited (or hard to reach/see) on mobile. (I use the mobile a lot, but I'm short-sighted :) )
Regarding your first question you could of course export one tree (or parts of it, but then I think you need to use FTB) and then import it as a new one. Or add it to an existing tree, in FTB. Until MH has a reasonable solution to handling duplicates I wouldn't recommend it (but they have hinted that they are working on it). But you can't AFAIK sync parts of trees.
It seems most of the work I did in MH last night disappeared when I synced with FTB today. I can still see the record matches I approved, but all the information I retrieved from them is gone (including people added).
I also did quite a bit of cleaning up in who lived where and when, all that is gone.
It wasn't that much, a little more than an hour's work I guess. I hope! I haven't checked everything I can remember that I've changed the last few days...
But it worries me. I normally don't use FTB that much, only when I want to do stuff that isn't possible or too complicated in the web interface. I need to be able to trust that a sync doesn't wipe out my work.
Is there someway I can restore the work I've done? How can I prevent this from happening again (except complaining about possible bugs and hope that something can be done about them?)

Rick Bayless is Mexican cooking's great American voice. An award-winning chef and author of bestselling Mexican cookbooks like Authentic Mexican, he's found a way to present honest recipes in a friendly, relaxed fashion that nonetheless touches every technical base. One Plate at a Time takes his approach a step further. Bayless offers more than 120 recipes, providing traditional versions of much-loved classics like Green Chile Chicken Tamales, modern renditions of the basic repertoire, and dish "anatomies." These detail what a given dish should taste and look like, when it's best served, and how American cooks should approach its preparation. This goofproof strategy will appeal to old cooking hands and culinary gringos alike.
Ranging from soups and starters to entrees, light meals, desserts, and drinks, the chapters present a wide range of dishes, from the simple (such as guacamole, updated with roasted poblanos, garlic, and tomatoes) to the more complex (a classic red mole with turkey, for one, followed by Roasted Cornish Game Hens with Apricot-Pine Nut Mole). Other winning recipes include Seafood in Mojo de Ajo (with toasted, slow-cooked garlic), Smoky Chipotle Beans with Wilted Spinach and Masa "Gnocchi," and, for dessert, a definitive vanilla flan with instructions for preparing it in three versions: light, creamy, and rich. Throughout, recipes are followed by paragraph-long "postmortems" (is Mexican vanilla worth searching out, for instance) that further extend reader understanding. With 32 pages of color photos and an extensive glossary, the book is an inspired place to start or continue a Mexican cooking journey. --Arthur Boehm
Rarely has a cuisine been so epically dissected, analyzed, pined over and exemplified in the name of a tasty dinner. Indeed, cookbook is perhaps too tame a description for this latest venture from Bayless, the popular chef and author (Salsas That Cook, etc.). Each recipe begins with a stream-of-consciousness consideration that at times runs a bit too jolly. "No food translates into more carefree fun than a singing dish of queso fundido," declares the author. Following the lead-in, a paragraph provides the "Traditional Benchmark," wherein the ideal version of the dish is captured. Thus, readers learn what makes the perfect flan or Pozole (Pork and Hominy Stew). Next come a few words on "When to Think of These Recipes"DChiles Rellenos when you're pulling out the stops, Tamales for hanging out with the gang. A third paragraph offers "Advice for American Cooks," such as what peppers you can substitute in your Adobado Chicken. Then, at last, come the recipes. Bayless provides both a traditional and contemporary version of most dishes. Among his many happy surprises are a relatively unknown "street-style" enchilada, which is dipped in chile sauce and quick fried, and a grilled Cactus Salad. Each recipe is followed by answers to Frequently Asked Questions. How saucy should the filling be for your taco? Or maybe just tune in and read along to the PBS version, with one of Bayless's Mango Coolers in hand. (Oct.)

Last Night in Caherciveen :(
... on your garage door, and talk 'contractor' talk with your man, John O'Connor, the Caherciveen contractor. Felt just like home! Anne – we used the kitchen and living rooms like it was our own (except no feet on the couches)! Many home cooked meals, plenty of beer and wine, and a significant amount of lounging on the new couch. And this blog would not be possible ...
Ahhh, Caherciveen!
First 'real day' in Ireland today. Nothing like sleeping in. No alarm clock. No house meetings. No work. Just some plain and simple sleeping in. Did I mention no work? Emily woke up at 3:30 am and said she wanted breakfast. I made her some toast with jam and she thankfully went back to sleep. Adah, just wanted to snuggle. Jen got the luxury of sleeping in the bunk bed with Adah. And then it was 11:30 am! ...
The Ring of Kerry
... we had a famous Gaelic Football player from Kerry come to talk about the sport and how important it is in Ireland. He was on the Kerry team a few years back and he bragged about how Kerry is the county which is the best. What I found very interesting was that once you wear the jersey of a club or a team you stay with that jersey for your whole career, unlike American Football. You remain loyal and form a family with your team mates, a bond he couldn't even ...
Long Walks on the Beach
... starting in the 7th century. They were quite small and constructed out of loose stacked slate. The second cool thing that we saw as a random spring house right next to the road. We thought it might have been a shrine, but on further investigation, it was just a fancy spring house. At one point in this drive, we saw 3 castle ruins and 2 monasteries from one point. This was pretty prototypical Ireland. By this point, we were "unimpressed" by the profusion of old stuff scattered ...
I'm Diggin' Dingle and a Drink in Dublin
... it was interesting learning about Guinness's business model. He wanted to open a brewery, so he signed a lease for a building. For 9,000 years. For 45 pounds a year. Not only that, but when the brewery first got its start, workers could drink as much beer as they wanted. That practice was eventually stopped, due to a high rate of alcoholism. Today, Guinness workers can enjoy a limit of 2 pints per day. I enjoyed a pint myself-that ...

This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 09/596,599 filed on Jun. 16, 2000 now U.S. Pat. No. 6,495,494.
This invention relates to conveyor lubricants and to a method for conveying articles. The invention also relates to conveyor systems and containers wholly or partially coated with such lubricant compositions.
In commercial container filling or packaging operations, the containers typically are moved by a conveying system at very high rates of speed. Copious amounts of aqueous dilute lubricant solutions (usually based on fatty acid amines) are typically applied to the conveyor or containers using spray or pumping equipment. These lubricant solutions permit high-speed operation of the conveyor and limit marring of the containers or labels, but also have some disadvantages. For example, aqueous conveyor lubricants based on fatty amines typically contain ingredients that can react with spilled carbonated beverages or other food or liquid components to form solid deposits. Formation of such deposits on a conveyor can change the lubricity of the conveyor and require shutdown to permit cleanup. Some aqueous conveyor lubricants are incompatible with thermoplastic beverage containers made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and other plastics, and can cause environmental stress cracking (crazing and cracking that occurs when the plastic polymer is under tension) in plastic containers. Dilute aqueous lubricants typically require use of large amounts of water on the conveying line, which must then be disposed of or recycled, and which causes an unduly wet environment near the conveyor line. Moreover, some aqueous lubricants can promote the growth of microbes.
The present invention provides, in one aspect, a method for lubricating the passage of a container along a conveyor comprising applying a mixture of a water-miscible silicone material and a water-miscible lubricant to at least a portion of the container-contacting surface of the conveyor or to at least a portion of the conveyor-contacting surface of the container.
The present invention provides, in another aspect, a lubricated conveyor or container, having a lubricant coating on a container-contacting surface of the conveyor or on a conveyor-contacting surface of the container, wherein the coating comprises a mixture of a water-miscible silicone material and a water-miscible lubricant.
The invention also provides conveyor lubricant compositions comprising a mixture of a water-miscible silicone material and a water-miscible lubricant.
The compositions used in the invention can be applied in relatively low amounts and do not require in-line dilution with significant amounts of water. The compositions of the invention provide thin, substantially non-dripping lubricating films. In contrast to dilute aqueous lubricants, the lubricants of the invention provide drier lubrication of the conveyors and containers, a cleaner and drier conveyor line and working area, and reduced lubricant usage, thereby reducing waste, cleanup and disposal problems.
FIG. 1 illustrates in partial cross-section a side view of a plastic beverage container and conveyor partially coated with a lubricant composition of the invention.
The invention provides a lubricant coating that reduces the coefficient of friction of coated conveyor parts and containers and thereby facilitates movement of containers along a conveyor line. The lubricant compositions used in the invention can optionally contain water or a hydrophilic diluent, as a component or components in the lubricant composition as sold or added just prior to use. The lubricant composition does not require in-line dilution with significant amounts of water, that is, it can be applied undiluted or with relatively modest dilution, e.g., at a water:lubricant ratio of about 1:1 to 5:1. In contrast, conventional dilute aqueous lubricants are applied using significant amounts of water, at dilution ratios of about 100:1 to 500:1. The lubricant compositions preferably provide a renewable coating that can be reapplied, if desired, to offset the effects of coating wear. They preferably can be applied while the conveyor is at rest or while it is moving, e.g., at the conveyor's normal operating speed. Preferably the lubricant coating is water-based cleaning agent-removable, that is, it preferably is sufficiently soluble or dispersible in water so that the coating can be removed from the container or conveyor using conventional aqueous cleaners, without the need for high pressure, mechanical abrasion or the use of aggressive cleaning chemicals. The lubricant coating preferably is substantially non-dripping, that is, preferably the majority of the lubricant remains on the container or conveyor following application until such time as the lubricant may be deliberately washed away.
The invention is further illustrated in FIG. 1, which shows a conveyor belt 10, conveyor chute guides 12, 14 and beverage container 16 in partial cross-sectional view. The container-contacting portions of belt 10 and chute guides 12, 14 are coated with thin layers 18, 20 and 22 of a lubricant composition of the invention. Container 16 is constructed of blow-molded PET, and has a threaded end 24, side 25, label 26 and base portion 27. Base portion 27 has feet 28, 29 and 30, and crown portion (shown partially in phantom) 34. Thin layers 36, 37 and 38 of a lubricant composition of the invention cover the conveyor-contacting portions of container 16 on feet 28, 29 and 30, but not crown portion 34. Thin layer 40 of a lubricant composition of the invention covers the conveyor-contacting portions of container 16 on label 26.
The silicone material and hydrophilic lubricant are "water-miscible", that is, they are sufficiently water-soluble or water-dispersible so that when added to water at the desired use level they form a stable solution, emulsion or suspension. The desired use level will vary according to the particular conveyor or container application, and according to the type of silicone and hydrophilic lubricant employed.
A variety of water-miscible silicone materials can be employed in the lubricant compositions, including silicone emulsions (such as emulsions formed from methyl(dimethyl), higher alkyl and aryl silicones; functionalized silicones such as chlorosilanes; amino-, methoxy-, epoxy- and vinyl-substituted siloxanes; and silanols). Suitable silicone emulsions include E2175 high viscosity polydimethylsiloxane (a 60% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Lambent Technologies, Inc.), E21456 FG food grade intermediate viscosity polydimethylsiloxane (a 35% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Lambent Technologies, Inc.), HV490 high molecular weight hydroxy-terminated dimethyl silicone (an anionic 30-60% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Dow Corning Corporation), SM2135 polydimethylsiloxane (a nonionic 50% siloxane emulsion commercially available from GE Silicones) and SM2167 polydimethylsiloxane (a cationic 50% siloxane emulsion commercially available from GE Silicones. Other water-miscible silicone materials include finely divided silicone powders such as the TOSPEARL™ series (commercially available from Toshiba Silicone Co. Ltd.); and silicone surfactants such as SWP30 anionic silicone surfactant, WAXWS-P nonionic silicone surfactant, QUATQ-400M cationic silicone surfactant and 703 specialty silicone surfactant (all commercially available from Lambent Technologies, Inc.). Preferred silicone emulsions typically contain from about 30 wt. % to about 70 wt. % water. Non-water-miscible silicone materials (e.g., non-water-soluble silicone fluids and non-water-dispersible silicone powders) can also be employed in the lubricant if combined with a suitable emulsifier (e.g., nonionic, anionic or cationic emulsifiers). For applications involving plastic containers (e.g., PET beverage bottles), care should be taken to avoid the use of emulsifiers or other surfactants that promote environmental stress cracking in plastic containers when evaluated using the PET Stress Crack Test set out below. Polydimethylsiloxane emulsions are preferred silicone materials. Preferably the lubricant composition is substantially free of surfactants aside from those that may be required to emulsify the silicone compound sufficiently to form the silicone emulsion.
A variety of water-miscible lubricants can be employed in the lubricant compositions, including hydroxy-containing compounds such as polyols (e.g., glycerol and propylene glycol); polyalkylene glycols (e.g., the CARBOWAX™ series of polyethylene and methoxypolyethylene glycols, commercially available from Union Carbide Corp.); linear copolymers of ethylene and propylene oxides (e.g., UCON™ 50-HB-100 water-soluble ethylene oxide:propylene oxide copolymer, commercially available from Union Carbide Corp.); and sorbitan esters (e.g., TWEEN™ series 20, 40, 60, 80 and 85 polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleates and SPAN™ series 20, 80, 83 and 85 sorbitan esters, commercially available from ICI Surfactants). Other suitable water-miscible lubricants include phosphate esters, amines and their derivatives, and other commercially available water-miscible lubricants that will be familiar to those skilled in the art. Derivatives (e.g., partial esters or ethoxylates) of the above lubricants can also be employed. For applications involving plastic containers, care should be taken to avoid the use of water-miscible lubricants that might promote environmental stress cracking in plastic containers when evaluated using the PET Stress Crack Test set out below. Preferably the water-miscible lubricant is a polyol such as glycerol.
If water is employed in the lubricant compositions, preferably it is deionized water. Suitable hydrophilic diluents include alcohols such as isopropyl alcohol. For applications involving plastic containers, care should be taken to avoid the use of water or hydrophilic diluents containing contaminants that might promote environmental stress cracking in plastic containers when evaluated using the PET Stress Crack Test set out below.
Preferred amounts for the silicone material, hydrophilic lubricant and optional water or hydrophilic diluent are about 0.05 to about 12 wt. % of the silicone material (exclusive of any water or other hydrophilic diluent that may be present if the silicone material is, for example, a silicone emulsion), about 30 to about 99.95 wt. % of the hydrophilic lubricant, and 0 to about 69.95 wt. % of water or hydrophilic diluent. More preferably, the lubricant composition contains about 0.5 to about 8 wt. % of the silicone material, about 50 to about 90 wt. % of the hydrophilic lubricant, and about 2 to about 49.5 wt. % of water or hydrophilic diluent. Most preferably, the lubricant composition contains about 0.8 to about 4 wt. % of the silicone material, about 65 to about 85 wt. % of the hydrophilic lubricant, and about 11 to about 34.2 wt. % of water or hydrophilic diluent.
The lubricant compositions can contain additional components if desired. For example, the compositions can contain adjuvants such as conventional waterborne conveyor lubricants (e.g., fatty acid lubricants), antimicrobial agents, colorants, foam inhibitors or foam generators, cracking inhibitors (e.g., PET stress cracking inhibitors), viscosity modifiers, film forming materials, antioxidants or antistatic agents. The amounts and types of such additional components will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
For applications involving plastic containers, the lubricant compositions preferably have a total alkalinity equivalent to less than about 100 ppm CaCO3, more preferably less than about 50 ppm CaCO3, and most preferably less than about 30 ppm CaCO3, as measured in accordance with Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 18th Edition, Section 2320, Alkalinity.
The lubricant compositions preferably have a coefficient of friction (COF) that is less than about 0.14, more preferably less than about 0.1, when evaluated using the Short Track Conveyor Test described below.
A variety of kinds of conveyors and conveyor parts can be coated with the lubricant composition. Parts of the conveyor that support or guide or move the containers and thus are preferably coated with the lubricant composition include belts, chains, gates, chutes, sensors, and ramps having surfaces made of fabrics, metals, plastics, composites, or combinations of these materials.
The lubricant composition can also be applied to a wide variety of containers including beverage containers; food containers; household or commercial cleaning product containers; and containers for oils, antifreeze or other industrial fluids. The containers can be made of a wide variety of materials including glasses; plastics (e.g., polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene; polystyrenes; polyesters such as PET and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN); polyamides, polycarbonates; and mixtures or copolymers thereof); metals (e.g., aluminum, tin or steel); papers (e.g., untreated, treated, waxed or other coated papers); ceramics; and laminates or composites of two or more of these materials (e.g., laminates of PET, PEN or mixtures thereof with another plastic material). The containers can have a variety of sizes and forms, including cartons (e.g., waxed cartons or TETRAPACK™ boxes), cans, bottles and the like. Although any desired portion of the container can be coated with the lubricant composition, the lubricant composition preferably is applied only to parts of the container that will come into contact with the conveyor or with other containers. Preferably, the lubricant composition is not applied to portions of thermoplastic containers that are prone to stress cracking. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the lubricant composition is applied to the crystalline foot portion of a blow-molded, footed PET container (or to one or more portions of a conveyor that will contact such foot portion) without applying significant quantities of lubricant composition to the amorphous center base portion of the container. Also, the lubricant composition preferably is not applied to portions of a container that might later be gripped by a user holding the container, or, if so applied, is preferably removed from such portion prior to shipment and sale of the container. For some such applications the lubricant composition preferably is applied to the conveyor rather than to the container, in order to limit the extent to which the container might later become slippery in actual use.
The lubricant composition can be a liquid or semi-solid at the time of application. Preferably the lubricant composition is a liquid having a viscosity that will permit it to be pumped and readily applied to a conveyor or containers, and that will facilitate rapid film formation whether or not the conveyor is in motion. The lubricant composition can be formulated so that it exhibits shear thinning or other pseudo-plastic behavior, manifested by a higher viscosity (e.g., non-dripping behavior) when at rest, and a much lower viscosity when subjected to shear stresses such as those provided by pumping, spraying or brushing the lubricant composition. This behavior can be brought about by, for example, including appropriate types and amounts of thixotropic fillers (e.g., treated or untreated fumed silicas) or other rheology modifiers in the lubricant composition. The lubricant coating can be applied in a constant or intermittent fashion. Preferably, the lubricant coating is applied in an intermittent fashion in order to minimize the amount of applied lubricant composition. For example, the lubricant composition can be applied for a period of time during which at least one complete revolution of the conveyor takes place. Application of the lubricant composition can then be halted for a period of time (e.g., minutes or hours) and then resumed for a further period of time (e.g., one or more further conveyor revolutions). The lubricant coating should be sufficiently thick to provide the desired degree of lubrication, and sufficiently thin to permit economical operation and to discourage drip formation. The lubricant coating thickness preferably is maintained at at least about 0.0001 mm, more preferably about 0.001 to about 2 mm, and most preferably about 0.005 to about 0.5 mm.
Application of the lubricant composition can be carried out using any suitable technique including spraying, wiping, brushing, drip coating, roll coating, and other methods for application of a thin film. If desired, the lubricant composition can be applied using spray equipment designed for the application of conventional aqueous conveyor lubricants, modified as need be to suit the substantially lower application rates and preferred non-dripping coating characteristics of the lubricant compositions used in the invention. For example, the spray nozzles of a conventional beverage container lube line can be replaced with smaller spray nozzles or with brushes, or the metering pump can be altered to reduce the metering rate.
The lubricant compositions can if desired be evaluated using a Short Track Conveyor Test and a PET Stress Crack Test.
A conveyor system employing a motor-driven 83 mm wide by 6.1 meter long REXNORD™ LF polyacetal thermoplastic conveyor belt is operated at a belt speed of 30.48 meters/minute. Six 2-liter filled PET beverage bottles are stacked in an open-bottomed rack and allowed to rest on the moving belt. The total weight of the rack and bottles is 16.15 Kg. The rack is held in position on the belt by a wire affixed to a stationary strain gauge. The force exerted on the strain gauge during belt operation is recorded using a computer. A thin, even coat of the lubricant composition is applied to the surface of the belt using an applicator made from a conventional bottle wash brush. The belt is allowed to run for 25 to 90 minutes during which time a consistently low COF is observed. The COF is calculated on the basis of the measured force and the mass of the bottles, averaged over the run duration.
Standard 2-liter PET beverage bottles (commercially available from Constar International) are charged with 1850 g of chilled water, 31.0 g of sodium bicarbonate and 31.0 g of citric acid. The charged bottle is capped, rinsed with deionized water and set on clean paper towels overnight. The bottoms of 12 bottles are dipped in a 200 g sample of the undiluted lube in a 125×65 mm crystal dish, then placed in a bin and stored in an environmental chamber at 37.8° C., 90% relative humidity for 14 days. The bottles are removed from the chamber, observed for crazes, creases and crack patterns on the bottom. The aged bottles are compared with 12 control bottles that were exposed to a standard dilute aqueous lubricant (LUBODRIVE™ RX, commercially available from Ecolab) prepared as follows. A 1.7 wt. % solution of the LUBODRIVE lubricant (in water containing 43 ppm alkalinity as CaCO3) was foamed for several minutes using a mixer. The foam was transferred to a lined bin and the control bottles were dipped in the foam. The bottles were then aged in the environmental chamber as outlined above.
The invention can be better understood by reviewing the following examples. The examples are for illustration purposes only, and do not limit the scope of the invention.
77.2 parts of a 96 wt. % glycerol solution, 20.7 parts deionized water, and 2.1 parts E2175 high viscosity polydimethylsiloxane (60% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Lambent Technologies, Inc.) were combined with stirring until a uniform mixture was obtained. The resulting lubricant composition was slippery to the touch and readily could be rinsed from surfaces using a plain water wash. Using the Short Track Conveyor Test, about 20 g of the lubricant composition was applied to the moving belt over a 90 minute period. The observed COF was 0.062. In a comparison Short Track Conveyor test performed using a dilute aqueous solution of a standard conveyor lubricant (LUBODRIVE™ RX, commercially available from Ecolab, applied using a 0.5% dilution in water and about an 8 liter/hour spray application rate), the observed COF was 0.126, thus indicating that the lubricant composition of the invention provided reduced sliding friction.
The lubricant composition of Example 1 was also evaluated using the PET Stress Crack Test. The aged bottles exhibited infrequent small, shallow crazing marks. For the comparison dilute aqueous lubricant, frequent medium depth crazing marks and infrequent deeper crazing marks were observed. No bottles leaked or burst for either lubricant, but the bottoms of bottles lubricated with a lubricant composition of the invention had a better visual appearance after aging.
Using the method of Example 1, 77.2 parts of a 96 wt. % glycerol solution, 20.7 parts deionized water, and 2.1 parts HV490 high molecular weight hydroxy-terminated dimethyl silicone (anionic 30-60% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Dow Corning Corporation) were combined with stirring until a uniform mixture was obtained. The resulting lubricant composition was slippery to the touch and readily could be rinsed from surfaces using a plain water wash. Using the Short Track Conveyor Test, about 20 g of the lubricant composition was applied to the moving belt over a 15 minute period. The observed COF was 0.058.
Using the method of Example 1, 75.7 parts of a 96 wt. % glycerol solution, 20.3 parts deionized water, 2.0 parts HV490 high molecular weight hydroxy-terminated dimethyl silicone (anionic 30-60% siloxane emulsion commercially available from Dow Coming Corporation) and 2.0 parts GLUCOPON™ 220 alkyl polyglycoside surfactant (commercially available from Henkel Corporation) were combined with stirring until a uniform mixture was obtained. The resulting lubricant composition was slippery to the touch and readily could be rinsed from surfaces using a plain water wash. Using the Short Track Conveyor Test, about 20 g of the lubricant composition was applied to the moving belt over a 15 minute period. The observed COF was 0.071.
Using the method of Example 1, 72.7 parts of a 99.5 wt. % glycerol solution, 23.3 parts deionized water, 2 parts HV495 silicone emulsion (commercially available from Dow Coming Corporation) and 2 parts GLUCOPON™ 220 alkyl polyglycoside surfactant (commercially available from Henkel Corporation) were combined with stirring until a uniform mixture was obtained. The resulting lubricant composition was slippery to the touch and readily could be rinsed from surfaces using a plain water wash. However, the presence of the surfactant caused an increase in stress cracking in the PET Stress Crack Test.
Various modifications and alterations of this invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention, and are intended to be within the scope of the following claims.

Moseley, Henry Gwyn-Jeffreys (1887-1915), an English physicist. Moseley studied the X rays that an atom emits when it is bombarded by electrons. He discovered that there exists a relationship between the wavelengths of the X rays emitted by atoms of a particular chemical element and the element's atomic number. The discovery showed that atomic number is indicative of fundamental properties of a chemical element and helped establish atomic number in place of atomic weight as the basis of the periodic classification of the chemical elements. Moseley was born at Weymouth, and attended Eton and Oxford. He was a lecturer and did research under Ernest Rutherford. Moseley was killed in World War I.

Underneath the spotless black marble floor that covers the halls of the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles lies a subterranean lair where cars sit patiently, awaiting their turn in the spotlight. Here are a few of the high-profile vehicles.
Popular Mechanics
1925 Rolls Royce Phantom I
Pre-WWII Rolls Royce cars are rare and sought-after machines. The chassis of these cars are so robust they often outlasted the bodies that came with them. This one was rebodied in 1934 with incredible aerodynamic coachwork by Jonckheere in Belgium—a company that today builds commercial buses.
A Rolls Royce is already a long car, but this chassis had to be further stretched to accommodate the wild fastback bodywork. The rear portion has an 18-inch central fin along with rows of louvres that extend down the back. Those vents would suggest that the car was rear-engined. It's not—there's a big straight six up front. For such a huge machine, there isn't much room on the inside.
Yet there is plenty of theater involved when you open the doors; they are not only round but also rear-hinged, opening suicide-style. And the windows roll down in a beautiful fan pattern. It's unusual and exceptionally cool.

We've been following the all-new Bentley Flying Spur from its sneak peek in London to its debut at Geneva's International Auto Show and to the factory in Crewe, where we saw the first production car roll down the assembly line (you'll see more about that later this year). Itching to road-test the car for months, we eagerly accepted Bentley's invitation to join them in China, where we spent a day driving from Beijing through the countryside to the Great Wall and back.

A bit hard to locate but once you do, it is fantastic. Room is very nice (could use a bigger closet) and the bathroom is excellent. Breakfast is great-and they will make something for you at no charge. Free drinks in your room fridge, too.
Wonderful experience. Great room, terrific and friendly service, delicious breakfast. Could not have asked for better. We were really made to feel welcome. Staff went out of their way to help us to enjoy Venice at it's best.Enjoyed sitting at the open window, watching and listening to the gondoliers serenade their passengers.Best hotel we stayed at on our Italian holiday.
We stayed here with our 2 kids in a family room. The hotel is lovely, very clean, with superb service. We loved the courtyard for breakfast in the morning and wine in the evening. The lovely woman who serves breakfast made me several cafe Americanos to perfection. The staff was so helpful in directing us to great places in venice and getting us a difficult dinner reservation. Highly recommended.
Excellent hotel in very convenient location a few minutes walk from San Zaccaria airport ferry drop and no bridges! Also only 5 mins from San Marco. Convenience only surpassed by quality of hotel staff. From reception to the people who maintain the rooms nothing seems too much trouble.
Its a beautiful Hotel set in a 16th Century Monastery, but refurbished in a completely modern manner.Its very conveniently located. If you use the water bus to get here from the station, you can actually reach the hotel in 5 minutes, without having to climb any stairs.Theres always a lot of staff around who will help with anything from carrying your luggage to offerring you free ice tea in the lounge.Breakfast was a huge buffet spread of Continental food and hot cappuccinos, which was a welcome change from most other breakfasts (on the go) that we had eaten in Italy.Mini bar was free with beer, water, sparkling water, juice that was refilled every alternate day. They had a tea/coffee machine in the room and would bring hot milk if we needed it. They don't have a restaurant inhouse (except the buffet breakfast), but there are plenty of lovely places around to eat at.
The staff at Hotel le Isole are amazing. Speak very good english and are extremely helpful. Breakfast was incredible. They serve a nice continental breakfast but they also offer omelettes by request. They have a beautiful courtyard that you can relax and have a drink. What a compliment to Venice! The location is very central to everything. Great location for first time visitors. The mini bar was complimentary.
Great little hotel near the Danieli Quai and San Marco's . Seems to be newly refurbished. Stayed 5 nights happy as a clam, Staff was very helpful and accomodating when I asked to extend my stay and had gppd restaurant recommendations to offer. Wonderful breakfast.
