I00 90M a DISTA (PERCENT) INVEN 5 DAVID ALEXAND FLEMING GILBERT DOUGL RAWLINGS ATTORNEY FILLING MATERIAL OF POLYESTER FIBERS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to fibrous nonwoven articles and, more particularly, to lightweight, resilient, high-bulk materials suitable for cushioning and insulating.
Fibrous materials of natural origin, such as cotton, have long been used as fillings in such articles of commerce as seat cushions, paddings and insulated garments. Because such natural fibers lack a high degree of resilience, it is customary to combine them with metal springs or materials such as foam rubber to compensate for this shortcoming. Crimped synthetic fibers such as polyethylene terephthalate are known to have a very high degree of resilience and, combined with their low cost, mildew resistance, and odorand allergy-free attributes, they would be expected to give excellent performance as filling materials. Filling materials of synthetic fibers have been produced by methods well known in the art of processing natural fibers including carding or garnetting the staple-length fibers to a web which is cross-lapped to the desired thickness onto a moving apron. Although being soft to the touch, such filling materials lack a high degree of support bulk, i.e., the ability to maintain a high proportion of original thickness under an applied load, and when they are in use in cushioning, their constituent fibers have a tendency to disassociate and the cushion tends to mat after repeated use. More recently, researchers have found that the addition of bonding resin to bond the fibers at their cross-over points in the web produces improved support bulk and prevents the fibers from migrating. It is commercial practice today to cross-lap webs and spread resin on the surface of the layered structure. Because of the improvements realized by the use of bonding resin, researchers have been eager to find methods for thoroughly and uniformly impregnating webs of synthetic fibers so that each and every fiber of the web is covered with resin. Such thoroughly impregnated webs may be made of bi-component fibers, i.e., sheath/core fibers having a core of synthetic polymer and a sheath of another polymer of lower meltingpoint. Thus, in effect, the sheath is the bonding resin in these structures. Such filling materials made with these thoroughly impregnated webs have a high degree of support bulk but lack softness. Thus, it seemed that softness and support bulk were incompatible and either one or the other could be had, not both. It has now been discovered that both may be attained and the present invention provides a filling material of synthetic fibers having the desirable combination of softness and support bulk.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention provides a bulky, lightweight, resilient, easily compressible, fibrous filling material of density between about 0.003 and 0.04 gm./cc., comprising a bonded laminate of a plurality of thin fibrous webs of crimped linear polyester fibers, each of said thin webs having a gradation of resin concentration on the individual fibers which extends diminishingly from the top web-face to the bottom web-face, i.e., present in diminishing quantities from one face to the other. The majority of fibers within the volume bounded by the length, width and half the depth, (the half depth being one-half of the web thickness measured by a perpendicular from the top web-face) of each of said thin webs are bonded at their cross-over points by a resin and the above described volume contains at least 70 percent, by weight, of the entire amount of resin n the web.
The product is produced by a process by a process wherein a lightweight web of linear polyester fibers is conveyed by a first moving flat surface and continuously discharged therefrom onto a second flat, substantially horizontal, moving surface and stacked or lapped onto said second surface by pendulous movements of said first moving surface. A resinous liquid is applied to the thin web by spraying one of its faces while it is supported by the said second surface, in such a manner as to have a gradation of resin concentration extending diminishingly from the sprayed face to the opposite face, and thereafter curing the resin to bond a substantial number of the constituent fibers at their cross-over points.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention will be better understood by reference to the accompanying drawings wherein,
FIGS. 1 and 2 are schematic elevational views of an apparatus used for producing the filling material of the invention showing sequentially the method used in forming a laminate structure,
FIG. 3 is a schematic elevational view of a transverse crosssection of the new filling material,

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 wherein like parts have been given the same numeral of reference, crimped polyester staple-length fibers 1 are fed to the main cylinder 2 of the carding section of a conventional garnett. They are worked by the worker rolls 3, stripped from the worker rolls and returned to the main cylinder by stripper rolls 4, removed from the main cylinder by conventional doffer roll 5, and transported in web form 7 on traveling apron 8 driven by rollers and 8b. The thin web then passes to the cross-lapper comprising traveling aprons 9 and 10 driven by rollers 9a, 9b, 10a and 10b, respectively. After passing between the aprons, the web is discharged onto flat apron 11 which travels in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper. The cross-lapper makes pendulous backand-forth movements in the direction of the arrows while the web is discharged onto the apron in such a manner that the web is layered or cross-lapped on traveling apron 11. In accordance with the present invention, the cross-lapper is fitted with frame 16 bearing spray nozzles 17 and 18 which connect to a pressurized resin supply and switching means (not shown) for starting and stopping the nozzles in a predetermined manner. Although only two nozzles are shown it is to be understood that more than one nozzlemay be used on each side. As the cross-lapper reaches one end of its period, one set of microswitches is activated and turns nozzles 18 off and 17 on, thus as the cross-lapper swings back and forth, nozzles 17 and 18 alternately spray resin onto the laid web. Thus, as shown in FIG. 1, the cross-lapper moves from right to left while spray nozzle 17 sprays resin onto the web laid down by the previous traverse of the cross-lapper and nozzle 18 is off. In FIG. 2, the cross-lapper has just begun to move from left to right and nozzle 17 is off while nozzle 18 sprays resin onto the web laid down by the previous traverse of the cross-lapper. Thus, preferably, the resin is always sprayed ahead of the cross-lapper. Inthis manner, each thin web is sprayed on one surface and, in accordance with the present invention, there is a gradation of resin concentration extending diminishingly from the sprayed web face tothe opposite face.
After the webs are sprayed with resin and stacked as taught hereinabove, the resin is cured. This may be accomplished conveniently in accordance with conventional procedures by passing the structure through an oven by means of a conveyor apron. The temperature is chosen to be consistent with the curing temperatures of the particular resin used. After curing the resin, the nonwoven product may be heated even further to develop more support bulk. It has been found especially when working with helically crimped fibers that an additional heating process at temperatures from to 200 C. for a period from 2-8 minutes produces an extremely high degree of support bulk.
Other well-known methods of making and depositing a thin web in layers on a moving apron may be used.
In the foregoing process, the webs which have been crosslapped lie flat and have substantially no wrinkles in the layered structure. If the processes of the prior art were modified wherein resin would be sprayed onto the vertical unsupported portion of the web as it issued from the cross-lapper, the polyester fibers, unlike cotton fibers, would fly apart and the web would billow and become disordered. The devices of the prior art even modified as such may be satisfactory-with natural fibers such as cotton but with fibers such as staple-length polyester they fail to produce a coherent, flat, resin-impregnated fibrous structure.
The term polyester fibers includes fibers as defined in 1960 Supplement to Book of ASTM Standards" part at page 5 3. Linear polyesters useful in the practice of this invention include linear terephthalate polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate/isophthalate, polyethylene terephthalate/S-(sodium sulfo)-isophthalate (97/3), and poly (p-hexahydroxylylene terephthalate). Preferably, the polyester is polyethylene terephthalate.
The term filling support weight? (FSW) is used herein to define the support-bulk of a nonwovenstructure. The meaning of the term will be better understood by reference to the following testing procedure: An unbleached muslin-ticking (commonly used in seat-cushion construction), measuring 22 by 22 by 3.5 inches (55.9 X 55.9 X 8.9 cm.), is stuffed evenly with some of the filling material to be tested. The cushion is placed on a table top or other flat surface and its thickness (under no load) is measured. A fiat, rigid, round disc of 50 square inches (322.5 cm?) surface-area is placed on top of it. Weights are placed on the disc until the total weight of the loaded disc is;62.5 pounds (28.4 kg.). The thickness under load is measured. Filling material is evenly added to or withdrawn from the ticking and the above process is repeated until its thickness under load is just 30 percent of its thickness under .no load. At this point, the maximum thickness (thickness under no load) of the filled ticking is at least 4 inches (10.2 cm.), and is preferably 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm.). The filling is then removed from the ticking and weighed. The weight of the filling is reported as FSW. It is readily seen that a filling material having good support-bulk has low FSW values, while a filling material having poor support-bulk has high-FSW values (e.g., greater than 2 pounds).
Crimp frequency is measured according to the following procedure: A sample of crimped fiber is straightened by applying just enough tension to do so. The fiber is marked at intervals of 1 inch (2.54 cm.) while in this condition. The tension is removed and the fiber is allowed to resume its crimped configuration. Crimp frequency is the average number of peaks per marked interval on one side of the helix axis, in the case of coiled fiber. A similar measurement is made in the case of a fiber with sawtooth crimp.
The wet pick-up, i.e., the percent, by weight, of resin emulsion or solution on the web based on the weight of the unimpregnated web, maybe from about 20 to 200 percent to insure an adequate resin add-on; i.e., the percent by weight, of nonaqueous (or non-volatile) ingredients in the resin mixture based on the weight of the unimpregnated web, of about 1.5 to about 50 percent.
The fibers used in accordance with the present invention are crimped. The crimp may be the sawtooth variety produced by a staffer-box crimper shown in US. Pat. No. 2,311,174; Preferably, however, the fibers are crimped in helical configuration as described in US. Pat. No. 3,050,821 and processed as shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,414,648. The fibers have a crimp frequency of from about 4 to 30'crimps per inch (per 2.54 cm.), and may have a denier of from about I to 40. Preferably, the crimp frequency is about 9 crimps per inch (per 2.54 cm.) and the denier is about 4.
The resins used in accordance with the present invention may be chosen from the acrylics, melarnines, polyvinylchlorides, polyvinylacetates, polyesters, polyurethanes, ethylene copolymers and others. Preferably the resin is an aqueous emulsion comprising ethyl acrylate, methylmethacrylate N-methylolmethacrylamide, methacrylic acid and a crosslinking agent. Other additions may be included such as silicones to confer additional softness to the fibers. Flame retardant resin systems such as polyvinylchloride with tris 2,3- dibromopropylphosphate may be used.
It is important that the fiber and the resin be chosen so that a wicking effect, wherein by capillary action or a similar wetting phenomenon, the resin is drawn into and through the web to effect uniformdistribution of resin throughout the thickness of the web, is avoided. Cotton fibers produce the undesirable wicking effect.
The new fibrous filling material may be produced in any length, width, or thicknessuUsually from about 4 to about 70 and preferably about 12 layers of web are used to make up the new structures, each layer before impregnation being of density from about 0.0008 to 0.01 g./cc. Each thin web, before impregnation with resin, may be from 0.04 to 0.15 ounce per ft. (1.22-4.57 mg./cm.) weight and is preferably 0.08 to 0.13 ounce per ft. (2.44 to 3.96 mg./cm."). The density of the new fibrous structure may be from about 0.003 to 0.04 g./cc.
Contrary to teachings of the prior art-where uniform resin penetration through the webs was desired, it has now been found, surprisingly, that a gradation of resin concentration is desirable not only for a high degree of support bulk but for aesthetic qualities such as softnessof non-woven structures to be used as filling materials. This may be seen in FIGS. 4-6, which are explained later in Example H.
The distribution of resin in a web may be determined by cutting an individual web from the laminated structure. This web is then bisected by cutting through the plane running through the center of its thickness. The amount of resin present in each portion may be determined by dissolving the resin and weighing it, or dissolving the fiber and weighing it and subtracting this from the total weight of the resin-impregnated web. Altemately, the amount of resin may be determined by visual inspection of photomicrographs of the crosssection of the web to be analyzed. Use of colored dye in the resin composition facilitates this determination. Similarly, the amount of resin in any volume of the web may be measured once the required volume is separated from the web.
The filling material of the present invention, composed of layered webs 8 (FIG. 3), has on-one side of the interface between the layered webs an area containing fibers which are heavily coated with resin and on the otherside an area con taining fibers which contain less resin. FIG. 3 shows a struc ture of the present invention wherein webs 8 are shown stacked one on top of the other, each web having an area 19 near said interface which is coated heavily with resin and an area 20 which contains less resin. Contrary to prior art methods 1 in which thorough resin-impregnation of webs is desired, such is not desired in the practice of this invention. In the prior art, especially in using cellulosic fibers, it was found that the recovery properties of these fibers are improved by using a resin which would cross-link the cellulosic molecules. Thus, it was important that each and every fiber in the web be contacted with the cross-linking" resin and, obviously, thorough impregnation of the web with resin was desirable. In the product of the present invention, it is important that there be a gradation of resin on each constituent web.
The preferred gradation of resin concentration is shown in FIG. 7. is a graph showing the distribution of resin in an individual web of a composite filling material. The ordinate shows the cumulative amount of resin, in weight percent, in the various sections marked on the abcissa which shows distance in percent from the bottom (0 percent) face to the top face (sprayed face) of the web. A completely uniform distribution of resin from bottom to top with no gradation of concentration, such as occurs in products of the prior art, would be represented by line A while a web containing resin onits top face as a surface layer only, there being no resin penetration into the web, would be represented by the line B. In accordance with the present invention, the resin distribution falls within the area bounded by curves C and D, i.e., OCPDF. Preferably, the distribution follows curve E. Thus, the volume bounded by the length, width and half depth, the half depth being oneihalf of the web thickness measured by a perpendicular from the top web face (sprayed face) contains at least 70 percent of the total weight of resin on the web.
In preparing the new filling material, the individual webs are stacked one on top of the other. For illustration, the face of an individual web, which contains the greatest amount of resin (sprayed face) will be called A and the opposite face will be called B. In stacking the webs on top of each other to make the new filling material, it is preferred to have an ABAB arrangement although other arrangements such as ABBA are within the scope of the present invention. An additional resin coating of the complete structure may also be made.
The invention is further illustrated by the following examples of preferred embodiments which are not intended to be delimitative.
EXAMPLE I Approximately 200 pounds (91 kg.) of commercially available, 2.0 in. (5.1 cm.), 4.25-denier-per-filament polyethylene terephthalate staple having a crimp frequency of approximately 9.5 crimps per inch (per 2.54 cm.) and containing about 0.3 percent, by weight, TiO is produced substantially as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 3,414,648 and fed to a conventional doubledoffer gamett. The gamett is set to produce a 0.09 oz./ft. (2.7 mg./cm.) web at the rate of 125 lbs./hr. (57 kg./hr.) and feeds to a cross-lapper. The machinery is arranged substantially as shown in FIG. 1. The thin web, which is about 60 inches (152.4 cm.) wide, and of about 0.125 lbs./ft. (0.002 g./cm. density, discharges from the cross-lapper, which swings back and forth, onto apron 11 which travels in a direction parallel to the plane of the web in the cross-lapper at approximately ft./min. (3.05 meters/min.) The web discharges from the cross-lapper at an angle with respect to the apron to form a 45-inch 1 14 cm.) filling material. The web is sprayed by resin from eight spray guns, four on each side of the cross-lapper and each discharging resin toward the apron and onto the laid webs as shown in the drawings. The spray guns spray the web ahead of the cross-lapper, and, as described above, the spray guns spray alternately. The orifice of each nozzle is about 0.026 inch (0.066 cm.) in diameter and the supply pressure is about 60 psig (4,218 g./cm. Each nozzle is designed to spray resin in a fan-like pattern 15-inches (38.1 cm.) wide onto the web. Thus, four nozzles cover the 60-inch wide 152.2 cm.) web that advances onto the floor apron. The wet pick-up of resin is about 65 percent and the resin add-on is about 15 percent. The resin composition comprises a 23 percent aqueous emulsion comprising 46-parts of ethylacrylate, 48-parts methylmethacrylate, 47-parts N-methylolmethacrylamide, 1- part methacrylic acid and a cross-linking agent. A transverse cross-section of the layered fibrous structure contains 10 layers of the thin webs, each layer having a gradation of resin concentration through its thickness so that the fibers within the volume bonded by the length, width and half depth, the half depth being one-half the web thickness measured by a perpendicular from the sprayed face of each thin web is coated with resin at the fiber cross-over points and contains about 75 percent, by weight, of the entire amount of resin on the, thin web.
The structure is dried in an oven at approximately 196 C. for 2 minutes. The resulting structure is bulky, soft, resilient, lightweight and has a density of about 0.41 lbs/ft. (0.0066 g./cm.
The laminated fibrous structure is then heated at approximately 196 C. for 4 minutes and is shown to have a surprising amount of softness, support bulk, and resilience, a combina tion unequalled by any wholly fibrous filling material known today. The product has an FSW of about 1.80 pounds (0.82 kg). Fibrous filling materials of the prior art with similar softness have FSW values of about 2.2 pounds (1 kg.), or more.
EXAMPLE II This example shows two filling materials of the prior art and compares these with a filling material produced substantially as shown in Example I, in regard to conformability.
Reference will be made to FIGS. 4-6 to describe the bulk and softness tests of the filling materials of this example.
A fibrous filling material is produced substantially as shown in Example I with the exception that no binder resin is used and there are eight layers of the webs instead of 10 layers. No heat treatment is performed. Six of these layered materials (8 in FIG. 4) are stacked one on top of the other to make a filling material comprising 48 layers of thin webs. A solid brass cylinder 20 measuring 4 inches 10.2 cm.) in diameter by 1.25 inch (3.18 cm.) in height is placed on a flat bench top 21. A sample of the filling material measuring 1 1 X 22 inches (27.9 X 55.9 cm.) is placed on the cylinder and a 1-inch (2.54 cm.)- thick flat board 22 measuring 12 by 24 inches (30.5 X 61 cm.) is placed on top of the filling material. A 12.4-pound (5.73 kg.) weight is placed on the board. The filling material conforms to the shape of the cylinder substantially as shown in FIG. 4 where it is apparent that the open space 23 between the cylinder and the first layer of web, is small. Because no heat treatment is used and because no resin binder is used, this filling material has poor support bulk. Heat treatment such as performed in the previous example would cause an increase of thickness under the load, of about 50 percent.
Another fibrous filling material is produced substantially as described in the preceding paragraph and tested for confonnability in the same manner. The fibers of this filling material are composed of two polymers intimately adhered along their length in concentric sheath/core relationship, the polymer making up the core being polyethylene terephthalate, the polymer making up the sheath being poly(ethylene terephthalate/isophthalate) (79/21) having a lower melting point than the core component, the fiber being composed of weight percent polyethylene terephthalate and 15 weight percent poly(ethylene terephthalate/isophthalate) (79/21). The fibers are 2.5 inches (6.35 cm.) long, of 4.2 denier per filament and have a sawtooth crimp of 7.3 crimps per inch (per 2.54 cm. In preparing this filling structure, after the thin webs issue from the cross-lapper and are cross-lapped to make up the layered structure, the structure is heat treated at approximately 232 C. for approximately 2 minutes to bond some of the fibers at their crossover points and given another heat treatment at the same temperature for 8 minutes. The thickness of the layered filling material is approximately the same as the thickness of the filling material of the preceding paragraph. This is a filling material of the prior art. The filling material is tested for conformability in the same manner with the same load, as stated in the preceding paragraph and as shown in FIG. 5, although it has a high degree of support bulk, it conforms to the shape of the cylinder relatively poorly as shown by large area 23 as compared to the showing of FIG. 4.
Another filling material is produced substantially as shown in Example 1 and tested in the same manner as the filling materials of the preceding paragraphs. This web, being produced in accordance with the present invention, shows a high level of conformability and a high level of support bulk, substantially as illustrated in FIG. 6. Area 23 is small showing the structure is conformable to the shape of an exterior object. In addition to this, the structure supports the load nearly as well as the structure of FIG. 5. Furthermore, another ad vantage of the present invention and a surprising phenomenon is apparent in FIG. 6. The individual webs of the laminate, which are closest to block 20, are compressed more than those which are farthest from block 20. The advantage of this in a filling material can be appreciated by visualizing a sleeping bag having a stick or stone underneath. The user would not be as much annoyed by the presence of the object, i.e., its presence would not be transmitted through each layer of web as it would be with materials of the prior art.
What is claimed is:
diminishing quantities through each web from one to the other face, about 75 percent of said resin being contained in onehalf the thickness of each web as measured from said one face. 2. The filling material of claim 1, and said webs fonning a layered structure, said one and said other faces of adjacent webs being contiguous.

86-89 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - May 2010
Pale straw with green highlights. Heady aromas of lemon, tangerine and vanilla. Then surprisingly rich on the palate, with more citrus and vanilla flavors complicated by ripe cantaloupe and a suggestion of tequila. Finishes clean, with building creaminess and a lovely mineral persistence. Very well done.

Product Description
Fitzgerald and Schuon compile verses from the King James Bible into three sections: the birth, childhood, and teachings of Jesus. The book is attractively illustrated with prints of Schuon's paintings, which pay homage to early European Renaissance artists in their muted blues, golds, and reds; well-known European Renaissance artists such as Fra Angelico plus a few pieces from Asia and the Mediterranean also appear. Synonyms for unfamiliar words or usages are inserted parenthetically in the text. An attractive resource for older children. Ages 8–up. (Publishers Weekly)
In their new book, A King James Christmas, artist and translator Catherine Schuon and award-winning author and editor Michael Fitzgerald have collaborated as coeditors to present an exquisite, very traditional holiday volume suitable for the entire Christian family. Using relevant selections from the King James Bible, they have arranged their chosen verses into three separate sections, one each about the birth, the childhood, and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Every section is abundantly and superbly illustrated.
Fitzgerald and Schuon's thoughtful individual contributions to A King James Christmas blend harmoniously to make this truly a book to be shared. Theirs is a distinctive and appealing telling of the traditional story of the first Christmas, and it deserves to become a family holiday tradition in its own right." (Foreword Reviews)
Biblical selections from the King James version of the Christian Bible are taken from the Gospels of Luke and Matthew and arranged for reading aloud during the Christmas season. (Kirkus Reviews)
This collection of biblical passages and beautiful pieces of art will likely become the foundation for a new Christmas tradition in many Christian homes. (Sacramento/San Francisco Book Review)
A treasury for parents to share with children ages 8 and up, A King James Christmas: Biblical Selections with Illustrations from Around the World pairs passages from the King James Bible about the birth, childhood, and teachings of Jesus Christ with striking color reproductions of paintings, sculptures, illuminated manuscripts, and stained glass windows around the world. Illustrations grace practically every page, while the biblical passages are in an easy-to-read enlarged font. The biblical passages themselves are unedited, although glossary synonyms for some unfamiliar words are conveniently offered. The result is a wonderful, read-aloud way for Christian parents to share the true meaning of the Christmas holiday with their children. Highly recommended. (Children's Bookwatch)

This is an Illustrated Christmas title.
Here is what the publisher had to say:
Beautifully crafted and presented, A King James Christmas is sure to become a new Christmas classic for the entire family. Excerpts from the Gospels are woven together to form a seamless and easy-to-follow story of Jesus' birth and infancy, including the Annunciation, the Visitation, the adoration of the Magi, the presentation of Jesus in the temple, and the flight into Egypt. Also included is the inspiring Sermon on the Mount. Fully illustrated with reproductions of paintings, sculptures, illuminated manuscripts, and stained glass windows from across the globe, A King James Christmas is a feast for the eye and a remarkable celebration of the spirit of Christmas.

I received a Ebook version of this title which on my Kindle didn't come through well. The publisher did a great job at sticking up for their product and sent me a hard cover copy to review.
This title is nothing fancy in text as it is just the Christmas Story as written in the King James Bible.
While the KJV is not my version of choice, I am not a speaker of Shakespearean languages. Yet opening this book was like walking through an ancient cathedral and staring at the mosaics.
It is one of those books that you could look over for hours staring at each picture which is a photo of a classic work of art depicting the Christmas Story. It is a beautiful book and would make a great coffee table gift book.
Thanks to Wisdom tales Publishing for the free title.
A King James Christmas: Biblical Selections with Illustrations from Around the World
A King James Christmas is a gloriously illustrated book that uses the original text from the King James Bible to tell the story of the birth of Jesus Christ. With multiple verses on each page, the story of Christmas flows naturally, making this an appealing read for young children, and older audiences. Using art from around the world (both traditional and contemporary), this book is bound to become a Christmas classic - the vibrant colors are stunning, and the diverse styles are utterly amazing.
I truly love this book because it celebrates what the holiday is all about, and does it in such a beautiful, rich way. With a book as wonderful as A King James Christmas, you can't help but enjoy this season a bit more.
Did you ever flip through the Bible trying to read all about Jesus's life as it happened? It's difficult to pull it all together and read the sections in the correct sequence. Well, no more!
In this nifty little hardcover you can sit and share Jesus' life with your entire family.
Hott Review
Normally, I'd do a section of what I like versus what I didn't but honestly, it's God's Word about the life of His Son! What can I say?
Truly, through, I really enjoyed this. I think this is a definite asset to have on hand when sharing the life of Jesus with our family. And the graphics? Amazing!
The only thing I can say is -- Don't allow this to take the place of your Bible. It's a wonderful resource but only a section of His Word.

Are Important Keywords Limiting Your SEO Success?Posted by nickstamoulis under Online Marketing
From http://www.brickmarketing.com 1282 days ago
Made Hot by: techmedia on January 23, 2013 11:17 am
One of the easiest traps to fall into when measuring your SEO success is to start siloing your results. It's especially easy to do this when you only care about how a short list of keywords, even if they are the most important keywords for your business, performs. I had an SEO client that fell into this habit and each month, no matter what the other numbers looked like, it all came down to this list of 20 or so keywords. If those keywords hadn't made much progress than our SEO efforts were falling short.

String charm bracelets, or karma bracelets, are a jewelry favorite for their simplicity and edge. What's not a favorite? Paying $40 or more for it. Here's how you can make your own for less than $20, and still show off a unique style all your own.
What you need
- Embroidery floss in a color of your choice (the typical string used to make friendship bracelets, sold at craft stores)
- Hollow metal charms (the ones that work best are circular)
- First, cut about 18″ of the thread
- Laying your piece out straight, match the ends so that the opposite side makes a loop
- To make one side of your bracelet: Pull the charm through the loop, and then pull the ends through the loop, and pull tight
- Repeat steps 1-3 to make the other side of your bracelet, then tie knots at the ends
- You can fasten the bracelet around your wrist like a traditional friendship bracelet, with either a double knot or a small bow

I am giving this a 4 star because even though I loved them, DH didn't like them at all. He is not a fan of cream cheese or very rich foods, but I am. These eggs are very tasty!!
every year we have sunrise sevice on the beach and i end up with about 20 people back at 8 o;clock for brunch. this is so easy and tasty .we had a small brunch fo12 yesterday and it tastes as good at 12 thanks supernan
Wow! I'll never use the skillet again! I omitted the cream cheese and instead replaced some of the milk with heavy cream, then stirred in some shredded cheese. I also actually used these in breakfast burritos and made the task 50 times easier! Thanks!
This was a tremendous hit for our Church breakfast!I had the recipe printed up because so many people wanted it! I used 2 batches & the timing was perfect. As soon as I served the first batch I started the 2nd batch. The taste was creamy& rich. The texture was nice & fluffy. We use this at home , using the individual serving s of the cream cheese.
These really are creamy and delicious. I used this for my Christmas brunch, and it served a dozen people with some leftover. I didn't use the Accent seasoning, because I don't know what it is(?)and I also left out the tabasco sauce because we never use it. I don't know that the taste suffered though, because the eggs just tasted rich and creamy.

First of all, I like the English Standard Version. I like reading different versions, and have found the ESV to be very easy to read and understand, but truer to the original manuscripts than the NIV. I also like Dr. MacArthur's notes. I have read several of his books and love them. His knowledge and understanding of scripture amazes me. Furthermore, this Bible is beautiful and very well made. It is, in my opinion, well worth the money.

- Bronze Medal Winner of the Independent Publishers Award 2009 -
Since 9/11, stories about Muslims and the Islamic world have flooded headlines, politics, and water-cooler conversations all across the country. And, although Americans hear about Islam on a daily basis, there remains no clear explanation of Islam or its people. The Muslim Next Door offers easy-to-understand yet academically sound answers to these questions while also dispelling commonly held misconceptions. Written from the point of view of an American Muslim, the book addresses what readers in the Western world are most curious about, beginning with the basics of Islam and how Muslims practice their religion before easing into more complicated issues like jihad, Islamic fundamentalism, and the status of women in Islam. Author Sumbul Ali-Karamali's vivid anecdotes about growing up Muslim and female in the West, along with her sensitive, scholarly overview of Islam, combine for a uniquely insightful look at the world's fastest growing religion.

The Muslim faith was a little scary to me so I thought it was important to read this book and learn first hand about an American Muslim's experience. I was surprised how deeply Sumbul's straightforward expression of her beliefs touched me, since they were so much like mine, though I'm a Christian and former nun. I started to wish she really did live next door so we could compare ideas and share stories. I recommend this book as a good read, especially at this time in US and world history.
This is a wonderfully written book by an American Islamic legal scholar who writes about Islam in a light, conversational style that captured my attention and made we want to keep reading. Ali-Karamali cuts through much of the misunderstanding and misconception about Islam 'propogated by Muslims and non-Muslims alike' by often going directly to the verses of the Koran and placing the verses and their subsequent interpretation in the proper context. She is not afraid to take on difficult and controversial issues and presents a balanced perspective in areas where the authorities disagree. Despite the sometimes meaty topics covered, The Muslim Next Door is a pleasure to read because it is intermixed with anecdotes and examples of Muslim practices and customs -- overall, I was left with the impression of a pleasant and illuminating conversation with the author. I have tried reading quite a few other books about Islam, and have been unable to make it all the way through. Not the case with this one!

Jordan's tax revenue set to rise again
Tax revenues are likely to exceed the government's target for this year, according to an official who expected the amount to hit JD3 billion.
In 2011, tax revenues reached JD2.764 billion and were higher by around 5 per cent than the funds collected in the previous year, according to official figures.
The official, who preferred to remain unnamed, said recent government policies such as raising taxes on automobile, real estate, mobile calls and fuel products among other services and goods would bring more revenues for the treasury, particularly from the general sales tax.
According to Income and Sales Tax Department (ISTD) Spokesperson Musa Tarawneh, revenues collected by the department during the first eight months of the year are 6 per cent higher than the same period of 2011.
He expected the upward trend to continue.
Tarawneh told The Jordan Times on Monday that overall revenues generated between January and August were JD2.02 billion, up from JD1.9 billion collected in the first eight months of the previous year.
According to ISTD figures, revenues from the income tax were JD613 million by the end of August compared to JD581 million collected during the first eight months of 2011.
Revenues made from the general sales tax increased from JD1.3 billion during the January-August period last year to JD1.4 billion, the department's figures showed.

Listen To Jack FM For Your Chance To Win Bon Jovi Tickets!
Jersey boys Bon Jovi make their return to Buffalo for the second time this year, this time at Darien Lake PAC. And guess what? We've got your tickets.
Jersey boys Bon Jovi make their return to Buffalo for the second time this year, this time at Darien Lake PAC. And guess what? We've got your tickets.
It's been tough for hardcore Bon Jovi fans to watch Richie Sambora sit out the band's latest tour (and feud with Jon Bon Jovi in the press), but all hope is not lost.
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, Jon Bon Jovi was an actor.
Bon Jovi's 2013 tour has been marred by the absence of Richie Sambora (and all the rumors and public feuding), but for the band's true fans, it's still all about the music -- and at Wednesday night's (June 19) concert in Gdansk, Poland, it provided the soundtrack to one Jovi-lovin' couple's engagement.
The Walking Dead?
World War Z?
"Living on a Prayer"?
Yes, even Jon Bon Jovi can't get enough of the current zombie craze.
I find myself spending too much time with zombies, on TV, in films, even zombie comics...
Some do, some don't.
Sure, they just came to town in February, but if you need another Bon Jovi fix, the Jersey boys will be back in town Tuesday, July 23 at Darien Lake -- and we've got presale info for you!
The boys in Bon Jovi sure are keeping busy this year. Fresh from a string of European concerts, the Jersey-based rockers have announced a run of North American tour dates this fall. These dates will comprise the second leg of the North American shows that began in February and ran through April before the group headed overseas.
After laying low for a few weeks, Richie Sambora has decided to speak up about his recent departure from the Bon Jovi lineup -- and it sounds like fans may need to start preparing for the possibility that he may never return.

My son and I enjoyed this soup very much. It was tasty and went very well with a loaf of Italian bread. I changed two things in the recipe: I used DICED tomatoes instead of stewed (personally, I think diced are much better for soups because they are smaller) and I also used a frozen block of spinach instead of fresh and it thawed out beautifully and added a nice green to the soup.
Great, hearty soup! Almost made as directed - Used garlic and basil tomato sauce AND diced tomatoes (rather than stewed tomatoes), used 8 oz. of whole wheat rotini pasta (before I doubled recipe), used hot Italian sausage, used 16 oz. pre-sliced mushrooms (before I doubled recipe), and doubled the recipe as the original recipe says it only serves four. No way! Even for my hearty eaters the single batch would have been AT LEAST 6 2-cup servings. (It is my best estimate as I've double it, and there's SO much!) Great taste! Thank you for posting this recipe!
This is quite easy and really good. I chopped everything in the food processor which made it really quick. I used those baby carrots and I used whole grain Bow Tie pasta as I could find the kind called for. I think a different kind of mushrooms than your typical white whatever in the grocery store would be good. My kids like it too.
It's decent as leftovers, but best the day it's made, the pasta gets a little soft after sitting in the fridge. Don't leave out the basil, it really adds that little something.
