In today's digital economy, companies see the revenue potential offered by data monetization and are striving to capitalize on it--preferably before their competitors do. This is particularly evident in the publishing industry, where some companies are already achieving incremental success by leveraging existing data about their consumers to generate new revenue streams. However, the majority of companies still need to determine how they want their organizations to leverage consumer data. More importantly, they need to consider how to synergize data trends emerging around both their existing base of consumers and a target demographic that may present new revenue opportunities, all of which is going through a degree of disruption in the market.

Remodeling for Accessibility You probably do not want to wait until you have legal problems to make your Web content accessible, but if you have a large site or a great deal of existing content online, knowing where to start can be a daunting task. Back in 2001, Thomson NETg had 2,000 courses in place when they moved to make the content Section 508-compliant.
When they looked at those 2,000 courses, Neri says, they really didn't know where to start, so they called in TecAccess to help them. They began with just a few courses and built from there. Rhu says that you do what you must to make the content compliant and then make a long-range plan to tackle other issues. "NETg had over 2,000 courses, so we just had to begin and as we walked down the path we learned a lot. And as technology advanced, we found better ways to do it," she says.
Given the choice, most experts recommend starting an accessible design from scratch, but in the real world there are many companies in the same position as NETg, which have a boat-load of content that they want (or need) to make accessible. While it's more difficult to retrofit accessibility, companies have to start somewhere, then build it into the process. Today, TecAccess and Thomson NETg have established practices for all new NETg content. "With NETg, we trained developers and built style guides and policies and procedures right in, to help ensure that accessibility was built into process," Rhu says.
Neri says his group is also acting as lead for other Thomson organizations that want to make their content accessible. Karen Beauregard, an account manager at TecAccess who wrote the ALT text guidelines for NETg, says this is a common practice, which could extend to partner companies. "Many people started with 508, and after they made this change internally, they made the demand on their partners," she said.
In fact, NETg has plans to move beyond Section 508 by forming a user advisory group to help guide it toward even greater accessibility. "One of the next phases is to develop an advisory council from the end-user space to provide further feedback about how we are meeting their needs," Neri says.
Making Web site content accessible may require some help, but in the long run it will be good for your business because it ensures that most people can use your Web site, regardless of their ability. When it comes down to it, you have to take the first step, evaluate what needs to be done, make the changes, then develop policies and procedures to ensure that all your content is accessible in the future. Not only is it the law for many, accessible content is just good business.

Sidebar: Accessibility With FlashMichael A. Jordan, a Flash developer at Houghton Mifflin, has worked for several years producing accessible content in Flash. He says that Flash gets a bad rap in the accessibility community, because earlier versions of Flash weren't accessible through screen readers, but over the last several years that has changed. Jordan says there is no reason why developers cannot make Flash content accessible and he expects that any Flash application should be accessible using a keyboard and assistive technologies such as a screen reader. "My view is that for any sort of content you put on the Web, you should try to make it possible for the widest audience to use it. While Flash started as a vector-based animation tool, in more recent history, it has been used much more for user interfaces, where they are much more like a desktop application," Jordan says.
For example, if a developer creates an interface with buttons, it is possible to make those buttons accessible using the keyboard. Jordan himself has designed extremely sophisticated, accessible Flash applications such as a crossword puzzle. He says part of the challenge was providing an interface where you could input the answers to clues so that a user with screen reader could hear the same information as a sighted user was seeing. He said he had to ask himself, "How can I communicate as much information about a clue as possible to make it possible for someone to play this?" What he thought about was how you would do a crossword puzzle with a friend, and then he built this type of assistance into the crossword puzzle so the screen reader software updated dynamically as the user enters more information. He says it was a tremendous challenge, but it is the type of thinking people should be doing when designing in Flash.
He says that once you start thinking along these lines, over time you build it into the development process. "It does require additional thought, but once you start thinking that way, it becomes easier and a lot more natural to say, 'OK, this is something I have to do,'" he says.

In this study outputs from four current General Circulation Models (GCMs) were used to project forest fire danger levels in Canada and Russia under a warmer climate. Temperature and precipitation anomalies between 1 × CO2 and 2 × CO2 runs were combined with baseline observed weather data for both countries for the 1980–1989 period. Forecast seasonal fire weather severity was similar for the four GCMs, indicating large increases in the areal extent of extreme fire danger in both countries under a 2 × CO2 climate scenario. A monthly analysis, using the Canadian GCM, showed an earlier start to the fire season, and significant increases in the area experiencing high to extreme fire danger in both Canada and Russia, particularly during June and July. Climate change as forecast has serious implications for forest fire management in both countries. More severe fire weather, coupled with continued economic constraints and downsizing, mean more fire activity in the future is a virtual certainty. The likely response will be a restructuring of protection priorities to support more intensive protection of smaller, high-value areas, and a return to natural fire regimes over larger areas of both Canada and Russia, with resultant significant impacts on the carbon budget.

The present invention relates to acrylic-ester phosphonic acids which have a high hydrolysis stability and are suitable in particular for the preparation of dental materials.
Phosphonic acids capable of polymerization are of significance to polymer chemistry above all as comonomers and permit the preparation of organic polymers with high thermal stability, good adhesive properties, low flammability and good solubility in polar solvents. For this purpose, numerous monomeric phosphonic acids are synthesized and polymerized with vinyl, dienyl, allyl or styryl groups capable of polymerization. An overview of phosphonic acids is provided by Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie [Methods of organic Chemistry], Volume E 20 (2nd part), G. Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart-New York 1987, 1300 ff. Examples of such conventional polymerizable phosphonic acids are vinyl phosphonic acid, allylbenzene phosphonic acid, α-aminoallyl phosphonic acid, 1,3-butadiene or isoprene phosphonic acid, 4-vinylbenzene phosphonic acid or 2-(4-vinylphenyl)-ethane phosphonic acid. Phosphonic acids, in which the C═C grouping is bound to the phosphorus atom directly or via an oxygen atom, such as e.g. in vinyl phosphonic acid or ethyl phosphonic acid monovinyl ester, have only a low tendency towards homopolymerization, with the result that only homopolymers with a low molar mass can be obtained.
Dental materials based on polymerizable (meth)acrylic acid derivatives of phosphonic acids, such as e.g. 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphonic acid, in which the (meth)acryl group capable of polymerization is bound to the phosphorus via an alkylene radical, are known from DE 199 18 974 A1. These compounds can be polymerized easily, but are not hydrolysis-stable.
DE 197 46 708 A1 discloses polymerizable acrylic phosphonic acids which are hydrolysis-stable in aqueous solution, have good adhesive properties, can be polymerized with conventional radical initiators and are therefore suitable in particular as a component of dental materials. The acrylic phosphonic acids display in the form of their carboxylic acid esters a good solubility in water and polar organic solvents while, although in the form of carboxylic acids they are easily soluble in water, they are barely soluble in organic solvents. The different solution behaviour of ester and acid can be disadvantageous in hydrous materials. The hydrolysis of the carboxylic acid ester to form free carboxylic acid accompanied by the splitting-off of alcohol can significantly change the solubility of the monomers and can thus lead to the partial or complete precipitation of the phosphonic-acid components and therefore influence the properties of the material.
DE 100 18 968 discloses dental materials based on hydrolysis-stable acrylamide and acrylonitrile phosphonic acids.
A. M. Kawamoto, M. M. Campbell, J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 1, 1997, 1249 describe difluorovinyl phosphonate analogues of phosphoenolpyruvate, which are intended to represent potential inhibitors of the shikimic acid pathway.
Finally, phosphonic-acid derivatives, in which polymerizable groups are bound via an amide group to a phosphonic acid group, such as for example in 4-methacrylamido-4-methylpentyl-phosphonic acid, are known from EP 1 169 996 A1. These compounds have only a low radical polymerization ability.
The object of the invention is to prepare acrylic phosphonic acids capable of polymerization which are characterized by a further improved resistance to hydrolysis in comparison with known acrylic phosphonic acids.
According to the invention, this object is achieved by acrylic ester phosphonic acids of general formula (I), stereoisomers thereof and mixtures of these,
The individual alkyl and alkylene radicals can be straight-chained, branched or cyclic.
The individual radicals R2, R3, R4 and/or R5 can be unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents, such as Cl, Br, CH3O, OH, COOH, CN, ═O, ═S, ═NR6 or —NR7—CO—C(═CH2)CH2—Y—R8—PO(OH)2, preferably Cl, CH3O, OH, COOH, ═O or ═NR6, wherein R6 and R7 independently of each other, each stand for hydrogen, a straight-chained or branched C1 to C10 alkyl or C6 to C10 aryl radical, preferably for hydrogen or a straight-chained C1 to C3 alkyl radical and R8 is a straight-chained or branched C1 to C10 alkylene or C6 to C14 arylene radical, preferably a straight-chained or branched C1 to C5 alkylene radical or phenylene.
Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of these hydrolysis-stable acrylic ester phosphonic acids for the preparation of polymers, adhesives, dental materials or other materials and substances. The subject-matter of the present invention is also the use of the acrylic ester phosphonic acids as a component of adhesives, cements, composites, shaped bodies or dental materials as well as polymers or copolymers, which can be obtained by homo- or copolymerization of the acrylic ester phosphonic acids.
The following preferred definitions, which unless otherwise stated can be chosen independently of each other, exist for the above-mentioned variables of Formula (I):
Preferred compounds are accordingly those in which at least one of the variables of Formula (I) has the above-described preferred definition. Particularly preferred monomers according to the invention are those in which all the variables have one of the preferred meanings.
The acrylic ester phosphonic acids of Formula (I) according to the invention can be prepared by esterification of corresponding OH-group-containing mono-(n=1) or difunctional (n=2) R1—(OH)n compounds with suitable COOH-group-containing acrylate ether phosphonic acid esters AEPE analogously according to the methods for the preparation of carboxylic acid esters known from the literature (cf. among others B. Neises, W. Steglich, Angew. Chem. 90 (1978) 556, or A Hassner, V. Alexanian, Tetrahedron Lett. 46 (1978) 4475) in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), hydrolytic splitting-off of the protective groups (SG) by silylation with trialkylsilanes, e.g. trimethylsilyl chloride/NaI or bromide (TMSBr), and subsequent reaction with alcohols, such as e.g. methanol, or water (S. Freeman, J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2 (1991) 263.).
Concrete Example:
The suitable COOH-group-containing acrylate ether phosphonic acid esters AEPE can be synthesized from the corresponding carboxylic acid esters by partial hydrolysis, e.g. with an equimolar quantity of lye at −5° C. analogously to the literature (cf. N. Moszner, F. Zeuner, U. K. Fischer, V. Rheinberger, Macromol. Chem. Phys. 200 (1999) 1062).
Preferred examples of the acrylic ester phosphonic acids, according to the invention, of Formula (I) are:
The acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to the invention are strongly acid and very easily soluble in water or mixtures of water with polar solvents, such as acetone, ethanol, acetonitrile or tetrahydrofuran (THF). In these, the acidic phosphonic-acid group is bonded to the acrylate group capable of polymerization via a hydrolysis-stable ether group. In addition, the ester group also has in the acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to the invention a high hydrolysis stability which, taken together, represents a clear improvement in comparison with conventional polymerizable acrylic phosphonic acids.
In connection with the present invention, compounds which are stable in water or in mixtures of water and water-miscible solvents in a concentration of approx. 20 wt.-% and a pH value of approx. 2.0 at 37° C. for at least 6 weeks, i.e. hydrolyze to less than 1%, are described as hydrolysis-stable.
As a result of the presence of polymerizable groups, the acrylic phosphonic acid esters according to the invention are suitable as starting materials for the preparation of polymers and copolymers. They can be homopolymerized with the known methods of radical polymerization or copolymerized e.g. with suitable comonomers.
The acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to the invention can be used in free form or in the form of their salts, i.e. as phosphonates or phosphonate esters, wherein, in the case of the salts, preferably alkali metal ions, in particular sodium and lithium ions, as well as organic ammonium ions serve as counterions, in particular those which are derived from amine accelerators, such as N,N-dihydroxyethyl-p-toluidine, N,N-bis(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloxypropyl-3,5-xylidine or 4-(dimethylamino)-benzoic acid-2-ethyl-hexylester. Amine accelerators are used in dentistry as a component for example of photoinitiator systems. Generally tert.amines are involved which can act as H-donors and therefore accelerate radical formation (cf. L. A. Linden, "Photocuring of Polymeric Dental Materials and Plastic Composite Resins" in Radiation Curing in Polymer Science and Technology, Vol. IV, J. P. Fouassier, J. F. Rabek (Ed.), Elsevier Appl. Sci., London, New York 1993, 396f.).
The known radical initiators can be used to carry out polymerization (cf. Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, Vol. 13, Wiley-Interscience Publisher, New York 1988, 754 ff.).
In order to initiate radical photopolymerization, preferably benzophenone, benzoin as well as their derivatives or α-diketones or their derivatives such as 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, 1-phenyl-propane-1,2-dion, diacetyl or 4,4-dichlorobenzyl can be used. Preferably camphorquinone and 2,2-methoxy-2-phenyl-acetophenone and particularly preferably α-diketones are used in combination with amines as reducing agents, such as e.g. 4-(dimethylamino)-benzoic-acid ester, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, N,N-dimethyl-sym.-xylidine or triethanolamine.
In particular azo compounds, such as azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) or azobis-(4-cyanovaleric acid) or peroxides, such as dibenzoyl peroxide, dilauroyl peroxide, tert.-butyl peroctoate, tert.-butyl perbenzoate or di-(tert.-butyl)-peroxide are suitable as thermal initiators. Benzopinacol and 2,2′-dialkyl benzopinacols are also suitable as initiators for hot-curing. Redox initiator combinations, such as e.g. combinations of benzoyl peroxide with N,N-dimethyl-sym.-xylidine or N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine, are used as initiators for a polymerization carried out at room temperature. In addition, redox systems consisting of peroxides and such reducing agents, such as e.g. ascorbic acid, barbiturates or sulphinic acids, are also particularly suitable.
The subject-matter of the invention is also compositions which contain one or more acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to Formula (I) and additionally also an initiator for radical polymerization.
As a result of the hydrolysis stability of the acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to the invention, the compositions are storage-stable at room temperature even in the presence of water and are suitable in particular as adhesives or cements above all for dental applications.
Compositions are also preferred which, in addition to acrylic ester phosphonic acid and optionally initiators, also contain one or more radically polymerizable monomers.
Monofunctional and/or multifunctional radically polymerizable monomers, in particular difunctional crosslinking monomers, are suitable as comonomers. By monofunctional monomers is meant compounds with one radically polymerizable group, by multifunctional monomers is meant compounds with two and more radically polymerizable groups. Above all crosslinking bi- or multifunctional acrylates or methacrylates, such as e.g. bisphenol-A-di(meth)acrylate, bis-GMA (the addition product of methacrylic acid and bisphenol-A-diglycidyl ether), UDMA (the addition product of hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate), di-, tri- or tetraethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate and pentaerythrite tetra(meth)acrylate, are suitable for the preparation of adhesives or dental materials. The compounds butanediol di(meth)acrylate, 1,10-decanediol di(meth)acrylate and 1,12-dodecanediol di(meth)acrylate, which can be obtained by esterification of (meth)acrylic acid with the corresponding diols, are also suitable.
Particularly preferred radically polymerizable monomers are acrylamides or hydroxyalkyl acrylamides.
As a result of their hydrolysis stability, amides of general formula BXn are particularly preferred, in which
Group X′ represents the N-substituted amide groups which are bound to the radical B via amide nitrogen or via the carbon atom C-2.
Amides of this type, preferred derivatives thereof and their preparation are disclosed in DE 101 01 523.
Also preferred are hydroxyalkyl acrylamides of the formula
The named alkyl and alkylene radicals are preferably linear groups. Compounds in which m″ und n″ are each equal to 1 are particularly preferred. Compounds which have 1, 2 or 3 hydroxyl groups per molecule are also preferred.
Hydroxyalkylamides of this type, preferred derivatives thereof and their preparation are described in DE 102 28 540.
Preferred monofunctional radically polymerizable monomers which are suitable in particular as diluting monomers are hydrolysis-stable mono(meth)acrylates, such as e.g. mesityl methacrylate, or 2-(alkoxymethyl)acrylic acids, such as e.g. 2-(ethoxymethyl)acrylic acid, 2-(hydroxymethyl)acrylic acid, N-mono- or -disubstituted acrylamides, such as e.g. N-ethylacrylamide, N,N-dimethacrylamide, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acrylamide or N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-acrylamide, as well as N-monosubstituted methacrylamides, such as e.g. N-ethylmethacrylamide or N-(2-hydroxyethyl)methacrylamide and also N-vinylpyrrolidone or allyl ether.
Preferred multifunctional radically polymerizable monomers which are suitable in particular as crosslinking monomers are hydrolysis-stable urethanes from 2-(hydroxymethyl)acrylic acid and diisocyanates, such as e.g. 2,2,4-trimethyl hexamethylene diisocyanate or isophorone diisocyanate, crosslinking pyrrolidones, such as e.g. 1,6-bis(3-vinyl-2-pyrrolidonyl)hexane, or commercially available bisacrylamides such as methylene or ethylene bisacrylamide, or bis(meth)acrylamides, such as e.g. N,N′-diethyl-1,3-bis(acrylamido)-propane, 1,3-bis(methacrylamido)-propane, 1,4-bis(acrylamido)-butane or 1,4-bis(acryloyl)-piperazine, which can be synthesized by reaction from the corresponding diamines with (meth)acrylic acid chloride.
The compositions can contain one or more of the named comonomers. Compositions which contain at least one multifunctional radically polymerizable monomer are preferred.
Furthermore, the compositions according to the invention for improving the mechanical properties or for setting the viscosity can be filled with organic or inorganic particles. Preferred inorganic particulate fillers are amorphous spherical materials based on oxides, such as ZrO2 and TiO2 or mixed oxides of SiO2, ZrO2 and/or TiO2, nanoparticulate or microfine fillers, such as pyrogenic silicic acid or precipitation silicic acid as well as mini fillers, such as quartz, glass ceramic or glass powder with an average particle size of 0.01 to 1 μm as well as x-ray opaque fillers, such as ytterbium trifluoride or nanoparticulate tantalum(V) oxide or barium sulphate.
Furthermore, the compositions according to the invention can contain radically polymerizable phosphoric-acid derivatives. Hydrolysis-stable phosphoric-acid derivatives, such as (meth)acrylamidoalkyl dihydrogen phosphates, in particular 6-(N-methacryloylamino)hexyl- and 2-(N-methacryloylamino)ethyl-dihydrogen phosphate, are preferred. These compounds improve the etching effect of the composition and are therefore suitable in particular for the preparation of self-etching dental materials, such as adhesives and cements. Here, alkyl stands for C1 to C12 alkyl, preferably for C1 to C6 alkyl.
In addition, the compositions according to the invention also contain preferably a solvent, such as ester, e.g. ethyl acetate, preferably water, ethanol, acetone, methylene chloride, acetonitrile or mixtures thereof. Compositions which contain water or a hydrous solvent mixture as solvent are preferred.
The compositions according to the invention can also contain further additives, e.g. stabilizers, aromatics, microbiocidal active ingredients, fluoride-ion-releasing additives, optical brighteners, plasticizers and/or UV absorbers.
Compositions which contain exclusively hydrolysis-stable components corresponding to the above definition, represent a quite particularly preferred version of the invention.
The compositions according to the invention are suitable in particular for the preparation of dental materials, such as cements, for example of self-adhesive fixing cements, and in particular of adhesives. Such adhesives are characterized by a very good adhesion to the tooth hard substance and are hydrolysis-stable under moist conditions.
Preferred dental materials contain the following components (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and/or (f):
Compositions which contain at least the components (a), (c) and (d) are particularly preferred.
The invention is explained in detail in the following with reference to examples.
Stage 1: 2-[2-dimethoxyphosphoryl)-ethoxymethyl]-acrylic acid-2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl ester (MAPAME)
24.5 g (128 mmol) N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide-hydrochloride was added in portions within 3 h under vigorous stirring to a solution of 27.6 g (116 mmol) 2-[4-(dimethoxyphosphoryl)-2-oxabutyl]-acrylic acid, which was prepared according to the literature (N. Moszner, F. Zeuner, S. Pfeiffer, I. Schurte, V. Rheinberger, M. Drache, Macromol. Mater. Eng. 286 (2001) 225) by partial hydrolysis of 2-[4-(dimethoxyphosphoryl)-2-oxabutyl]-acrylic acid ethyl ester, 1.33 g (11 mmol) 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 15.0 g (116 mmol) mesitol in 60 ml THF. The mixture was left to react further overnight at room temperature. The volatile components were then drawn off and the remaining oily residue was taken up in 250 ml methylene chloride. The mixture was extracted with 0.5N hydrochloric acid, washed neutral and dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate. Finally, all the volatile components were separated in fine vacuum and the crude product purified by means of column chromatography: silica gel column, mobile solvent THF/toluene 1:1. 11.9 g MAPAME (29% yield) as colourless oil is obtained.
1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, ppm): 2.10 (s, 6H, o-CH3), 2.17 (dt, 2H, PCH2), 2.27 (s, 3H, p-CH3), 3.75 (d, 6H, ═CH3), 3.81 (m, 2H, PCH2CH 2), 4.34s, 2H, OCH2C═), 6.07 and 6.56 (2s, 1H, ═CH2), and 6.87 (s, 2H, CarH).
13C-NMR (CDCl3, 100 MHz): 16.1 (OCar. Car. CH3), 20.8 (OCar. Car. Car. Car. CH3), 24.8 (d, PCH2CH2, 1JC,P=140.2 Hz), 52.3 (d, OCH3, 2JC,P=6.5 Hz), 64.7 (PCH2 CH2), 69.2 (OCH2C═), 127.4 (C═CH2), 129.2 (Car.H), 129.7 (OCar. C ar.CH3), 135.4 (OCar. Car. Car. C ar. CH3), 136.4 (C═CH2), 145.7 (OCar.), 163.7 (C═O).
31P-NMR (CDCl3, 162 MHz): δ=+32.5.
Stage 2: 2-[2-dihydroxyphosphoryl)-ethoxymethyl]-acrylic acid-2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl ester
10.56 g (69 mmol) trimethylsilyl bromide was carefully added dropwise under argon to a mixture of 9.83 g (27.6 mmol) of the compound MAPAME and 2.7 mg phenothiazine MEHQ and stirred for 3 h at 45° C. Then the mixture was evaporated in a rotary evaporator, reacted with 60 ml methanol, stirred overnight, evaporated in fine vacuum and dried to constant weight. 8.77 g (97% yield) of a very viscous oil of MAPA remained.
1H-NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz): δ=2.08 (s, 6H, o-CH3), 2.18 (dt, 2H, PCH2), 2.26 (s, 3H, p-CH3), 3.82 (m, 2H, PCH2CH 2), 4.31 (s, 2H, OCH2C═), 6.06, 6.55 (in each case s, 1H, ═CH2), 6.86 (s, 2H, Car.H), 9.48 (br, 2H, POH).
13C-NMR (CDCl3, 100 MHz): δ=16.2 (OCar. Car. CH3), 20.8 (OCar. Car. Car. Car. CH3), 26.8 (d, PCH2CH2, 1JC,P=143.6 Hz), 64.6 (PCH2 CH2), 69.2 (OCH2C═), 127.9 (C═CH2), 129.2 (Car.H), 129.7 (OCar. C ar. CH3), 135.4 (OCar. Car. Car. C ar. CH3), 136.1 (C═CH2), 145.7 (OCar.), 163.8 (C═O).
31P-NMR (CDCl3, 162 MHz): δ=+33.6.
A 20% solution of MAPA, stabilized with 200 ppm 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol, was prepared in D2O/EtOH-d6 (1:1), stored at 37° C. and 1H-NMR-spectroscopically examined. After a standing time of 2 months, no changes in the 1H-NMR-spectrum were able to be detected.
In order to examine dentine adhesion to bovine-tooth dentine, adhesives with the following composition were prepared (figures in wt.-%):
Composition and coefficients of adhesion for dental adhesives
based on MAPA
of adhesion
9.1 ± 2.1
11.0 ± 3.5
11.0 ± 2.0
8.8 ± 2.4
1) HMA = 2-(hydroxymethyl)acrylic acid
2) MAHP = 6-(N-methacryloylamino)hexyl-dihydrogen phosphate
3) HEMAM = N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-acrylamide
4) DEPBAM = N,N′-diethyl-1,3-propylene-bisacrylamide
Bovine teeth were embedded into plastic cylinders such that the dentine and the plastic were located at one level. One layer each of the above adhesives was massaged for 15 s into the dentine surface with a small brush and lightly blown with an air syringe. A prepolymerized cylinder, made from dental composite material (Tetric® Ceram, Ivoclar Vivadent AG), coated with a self-curing cement was applied to the adhesive layer and cured for 10 minutes in the dark. The test pieces were then stored in water for 24 h at 37° C. and the shearing adhesive strength was determined according to the ISO Guideline "ISO 1994-ISO TR 11405: Dental Materials Guidance on Testing of Adhesion to Tooth Structure". The results are summarized in Table 1. They show that the acrylic ester phosphonic acids according to the invention are not only hydrolysis-stable, but also guarantee a high degree of adhesion between dentine and composite material.

The seminar, which was recently highlighted by NBC.com, covers topics of positive sexuality in an attempt to destigmatize and encourage conversation about sex, pleasure, a healthy sexual climate on campus, combating sexual violence, the way different identities interact with sex and sexuality, and more. For more information, contact Yes Means Yes intern, Leah Robinson at firstname.lastname@example.com. "This Is Not a Play About Sex" A play by Christina Liu '13 includes frank discussion about sexuality, and has been performed on campus over several years. READ MORE Student-led Team: The Network The Network is a sexual assault and domestic violence awareness group organized by the Max A. Shacknai Center for Outreach, Volunteerism, and Education. The group hosts weekly meetings that discuss upcoming events and current issues, and organizes annual events like Take Back The Night and Speak Out. The Network partners with Victims of Violence for Madison County where students are trained to answer a sexual assault and domestic abuse hotline. LEARN MORE Bystander Intervention Bystander Intervention is a strategy to prevent violence including bullying, sexual harassment and assault, and intimate partner violence. Together, we call these behaviors "gender-based violence." The training is a two-hour interactive program led by student facilitators. It includes videos, discussion of the definition of consent, examination of how Colgate can help student survivors of sexual assault and/or harassment, and an exploration of how to identify dangerous situations and intervene safely and effectively. Bystander Intervention is based on the understanding that people make decisions and continue behaviors based on the reactions they get from others. Colgate's program is based on a model from Duke University called PACT (Prevent, Act, Challenge, Teach).

It obviously won't work, I think I need some kind of lift or something, but I don't know what to use.
liftIO isn't right, and
lift gives me weird errors.

Reader John Pading makes a lovely point, which is that we may be able to guess the U.S. release date for Twilight Princess... just as soon as Microsoft drops the release date for Xbox 360. (Better hurry, Bill! The fall shopping season ain't too far away.) The logic here being that Nintendo will simply position Twilight Princess to be released the same day, letting a little wind out of 360's HD-powered sails/sales.
Although, as I think about it, maybe not. Nintendo has an annoying habit of doing its own thing and pretending the rest of the industry doesn't actually exist. Now Sony... that's another story. Sony has a long-running habit of releasing big titles alongside a competitor's debut. This is the company's way of saying, "We have your number, Nintendo/Sega/Microsoft." (And also, "We hate you, retailers. Welcome to hell!")
1996's saw the release of Sony & Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot day-and-date with the N64, presumably in an attempt to derail Nintendo's Ultra-64-hyped launch. The N64 ultimately did fizzle out, but it certainly wasn't Crash that did it... the system was a mighty juggernaut for the first few months of its life, and if anything it's a miracle that Crash survived to tell the tale. (Sega released NiGHTs: Into Dreams the same day, but sadly the lovable little jester didn't fare quite so well as the bug-eyed bandicoot.) Sony went for a repeat performance three years later, launching the ultra-hot Final Fantasy VIII simultaneously with the debut of the Dreamcast -- a rather more successful ploy, I'd say, since I know a few people who passed up a DC in favor of FFVIII.
Nintendo, on the other hand, tends to release its top doodad for the year about a week before Thanksgiving, regardless of what the competition has going on -- presumably to ensure it can short-ship its latest big thing and roll along on a wave of Tickle-Me-Elmo consumer frenzy when Black Friday arrives. It worked with Donkey Kong Country, GoldenEye 007, the DS and of course Ocarina of Time... so it seems likely that they'll shoot to duplicate the magic once again by giving Twilight Princess a late November release date.
But don't breathe too easy, you poor folks who work at retail -- you're not off the hook by any means. After all, Sony has GTA: Liberty City Stories this fall, and the company hates you personally. So you can put money on LCS coming out the same day as the 360.

Do any of you think that it's release date will wane the sales of the new DS games coming out and/or LOZ:TP?Don't get me wrong,I'm excited about the new GTA,but I just wonder how it will effect the competition.

I've never been so aware of any video game company's PR team as I've been with Nintendo's since Reggie's debut last year.
A release date that coincides with 360 provides a high potential of asskickery.
But yeah--they're also insane.
I hope so..Posted: Jul 21, 2005 12:00AM PST by Ronin_Alchemist
I hope Nintendo does release it same day as 360 because I'll just say to everyone "screw you, I'm playing the greatest adventure game ever made" and everyone else will be bi***ing becuase there weren't enough 360s and they didn't pre-order...losers.
By the way, for your local retailer's sanity, if at all you are planning on Zelda or 360, please for the love of everything holy pre-order it! It makes things go ALOT smoother!!!!

We loved the sinks in the Riad where we spent the night and Rough Tours (Youssef) made sure we got a good look at where they were made. We got to visit the actual manufacturing area where they were cutting and polishing the stone (with out any safety gear of course). Inside was a treasure chest of different bath fixtures, trinkets, etc. We found two fairly matching fossil sinks and decided to lay down the $1000 for the pair, which included ground shipping (air was more). Found similar sized sinks in the US for much more. We can confirm that we DID receive our sinks, but not in the 2 months + 1 week as per our invoice. It took a total of 4.5 mo and many, many calls to both Macro Fossiles, Rough Tours, and the US importer - Luca at Elen Importing (New Jersey). The challenges seem to be on this side of the pond with Luca as once they were shipped from Morocco and in the US, we got one excuse from Luca after the other.
So if you take our Moroccan friends up on offer to ship your purchase home via ground, be ready to deal with Luca to move on the inventory once it clears US Customs.

Young people who take high doses of antidepressants are twice as likely to become suicidal
- Under 24s taking high doses of SSRIs are twice as likely to self-harm
- Older adults are not at increased risk of suicide when taking SSRIs
Young adults taking high-dose antidepressants such as Prozac and Seroxat have double the risk of suicidal behaviour, warn researchers.
A U.S. study of almost 162,000 found those aged 24 or younger were twice as likely to deliberately self-harm compared with youngsters taking standard doses of SSRI pills.
Older adults were not at higher risk of suicidal behaviour after starting to take antidepressants.
Teens who take high dose antidepressants are twice as likely to become suicidal as those taking low doses
The latest study investigating the effect of antidepressants known as selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors comes from experts at Harvard School of Public Health, Boston.
Because the benefits of medication for youngsters suffering depression are 'modest', they claim, doctors should avoid giving them high doses and monitor them closely for several months.
Suicide warnings are included on medication in the U.S. and the British drug safety watchdog advises doctors to 'carefully monitor' young adults during treatment for any worsening of symptoms of suicidal behaviour.
Previous studies found antidepressant drugs are linked with an increased risk of suicidal behaviour and thoughts in children and adolescents, particularly in the early stages of treatment.
A British Medical Journal study in 2009 found young adults taking antidepressants including SSRIs had double the risk of suicidal thoughts or behaviour compared with those taking dummy pills.
Doctors are advised not to prescribe the majority of SSRIs to under-18s and NHS guidelines recommend cognitive therapy, which teaches patients to change behaviour patterns, as first-line treatment for mild to moderate depression.
Older adults are not at increased risk of becoming suicidal when taking high doses of the drugs
The latest study used data from 162,625 people between the ages of 10 to 64 years with depression who started treatment with SSRIs such as Prozac and Seroxat.
They compared those on an average dose or at higher amounts from 1998 to 2010.
The rate of suicidal behaviour among children and adults of 24 years or younger who started antidepressant therapy at high doses was about twice as high compared with a matched group of patients who received generally prescribed doses.
The authors suggest this corresponds to about one additional act of deliberate self-harm for every 150 patients treated with high-dose therapy.
For adults 25 to 64 years old, there was no difference in risk for suicidal behaviour, says a report in JAMA Internal Medicine.
The study did not explain why higher doses might lead to higher suicide risk.
Study leader Dr Matthew Miller said recent scientific reviews of antidepressant therapy found young patients only got modest benefits.
'Our findings offer clinicians an additional incentive to avoid initiating pharmacotherapy at high-therapeutic doses and to monitor all patients starting antidepressants, especially youth, for several months,' he said.
Soaring levels of antidepressant use led to more than 50 million prescriptions being issued on the NHS in 2012.
Of these more than half were for drugs such as Prozac and Seroxat.
Dr Irene Petersen, Reader in Epidemiology, Department of Primary Care and Population Health, UCL, said it was likely that young people needing high dose medication had more severe problems.
She said: 'Young people prescribed high dose antidepressants are likely to be different from those who were prescribed standard dose.
The suicide risk in young people taking the drugs, which include Prozac, is particularly high during the first weeks of taking them
'We cannot be sure that the observed increase in self-harm is solely due to high dose antidepressants.
'An alternative, but equally valid, interpretation is that high dose antidepressant is a mere marker of young people with acute severe psychiatric problems and thus it is the underlying condition not the treatment that is associated with increased risks of self-harm.'
Professor David Nutt, speaking on behalf of the European College for Neuropsychopharmacology, said: 'We need to be clear that this is about starting antidepressant therapy at a high dose - the work shows that normal doses are not a significant problem.
'Nevertheless, this will help doctors optimise the doses in younger people, and clinicians should take note.'

I searched online for about a month searching for running boards or steps. Finally, I chose the ICI. I'm so very happy I did. They're an absolute beautiful addition to my Jeep and they're practical, yet slightly aggressive looking. Installation was straightforward, taking 3-4 hours I like that the attach to both the floor of the jeep as well as the pinch weld. These are not moving. The step appears low, however they are actually flush with the frame. They look awesome.

everyone on jumbo has by now seen whats going on with the old jumbo store place, perhaps to some they may think its good for the place to be leavleed out, but to me and the rest it is sad, that the prick who says he owns it is burning everything all the oldstuff and the building to turn it for a proffit,for the people that live on jumbo the buildings the store the house and the barn out back and the church are land marks its not the same without the house, but we get theese yankee bitches in here that want to just burn everything. i also think its pretty rank that this prick and what he calls his women their mannerism to the kids that prevousley owned it,who he damb well knew how hard they stuggled to keep it.I hope you choke on your twinky you fat prick

where is the old jumbo store?
#3 Jan 18, 2011
As the owner of the jumbo store lets get some facs straight. The kids were in the process of losing the property to the bank and they approached us on selling the store to us. Before we bought it we told several local people about it. But knowone stepped up to buy it. Including the neighbors. As far as the house was concerned it was demned uninhabitable. The barn was falling down, we even tried to find someone salvage the barn. After we aquired the property, we had all kinds of problems with theft and traspassers. The sherrifs department was not helpful as far as stopping the problem. We were even assulted once by people that we found for the third time on the property. We were even aproached by someone claiming to be a cherokee indain chief and wanted to restore the place as an Indian trading post as it was in the past. Upon a background check< He was not a chief nor even a cherokee indian. Upon checking with the Cherokee Tribe we found out it was a scam. After that wedecided to sell the property as it was not worth the trouble of trasspassers assults and threats. We are going to level the property and do with it what we want to. If someone wants to save the sight buy it! Or shutup!
#4 Jan 18, 2011
That is kind of funny that you say that. Not everyone in this little community has money to buy it, and would love to see it restored or something. Get your facts straight and be honest with everyone. The people with money do NOT care to do it, and the people without money want to. How do we go about saving it if we are struggling like those kids? Thats what i thought, we CAN'T. I love driving past it and seeing the old store and the church. So does my family, and we have lived here for years. How would your great knowledge go about telling us how to save it, make enough money to buy it, or whatever else needs be done to it??? You can not sit here and tell us that noone cares to buy it and save it if we care about it, if we do not possess the money or resources to do so. As for shutting up, i have the right to voice opinion just like you do. I have the right to say what i feel is right. Level it if you must and do away with it, but remember and know that some of us do care, we just can not afford to do so. Just because we can not afford to save and buy it, doesn't mean we are heartless, it means we are human. I can care about something even though i do not have money. Honestly, i will never have money. But money does not make the world go around. I do care about the old place, as do a lot of older people whom do not have strength or money to do so either. Do not make us out to not care. SOME of us still do. So as far as shutting up, learn to listen instead of turning the community away, maybe someone would have had an idea for you or avenue to fix it up for being sold. There are more people in this town and the jumbo community than just a couple. Do not speak for all of us if you can not say that you havn't asked all of us.
#5 Jan 19, 2011
I completely understand why the owner would want to clean up the property. To my knowledge, its not on any historic register. Yeah, it is a piece of history, but things change and it should be demolished if it is beyond salvage. If the Jumbo community REALLY wanted to save it, they could've competed for a government grant of some sorts and maybe received some $ to fix it up/buy the property. At the very least, they should've tried doing a fundraiser or two. Sitting on your tail and griping doesn't solve a situation like this.
#6 Jan 20, 2011
hey i am out here and would like to pull some of the old stuff out of ther for you if you are interested and willing to contact me on salvaging the junk please reply i would love to take some of it off your hands i could use the extra materials and would not charge a thing for removing it. i will make arrangements if needed to contact you
#7 Jan 20, 2011
As of right now, the two old house trailers are on there way out. One was donated to ICARE and the other is being torn down by someone on Jumbo Road. As far as the old store goes get in contact with me. My wife and I had planned on restoring the store. But with all that has transpired over our purchasing the property by a couple of individuals. We are probably going to tear it down this spring. It's not worth the hassle nor the investment to restore a place where people treat other people like we have been treatedthis past year.
#8 Jan 25, 2011
how do i get a hold of you i am really interested

leave a message at the old store with your contact information. Thanks for your support.

Talk to Dead Painters at Seoul's 'Alive Art' Exhibit

The Alive Art Gallery in Seoul, Korea has developed and is using a technology that allows visitors to have interactive chats with the works of art. So now, thanks to this development, folks will be able to ask Da Vinci's Mona Lisa questions or "conversate" [sic] with Jesus and the disciples in The Last Supper. What do I think you must be asking yourself. Blasphemy is what I think! Blasphemy I said! Total and absolute blasphemy! I would never set foot in a place like that! Ok maybe I would but I would not ask any work of art any questions. Ok maybe I'd chat up Edvard Munch's "The Screamer" and ask what the hell is the matter with him or something like that. But I'm not a happy camper right now.
