0 Application filed August 15, 1923. Serial No. 657,480.
This invention relates to a process and apparatus for the manufacture of a roofing-material which is to be used in the web or. roll form. The roofing material referred to is shown and described in the co-pendmg a plication of Thomas Robinson, Ser. 0. 657,472, filed Aug. 15, 1923, and n thatapplication this new roofing is descrlbed as consisting of a composition base whlch 1s provided with a protective strip of wear-resisting material. The base which is used in this connection may be formed of any of the compositions which are commonly used at the present time under the general designation of composition roofing. Such roofing may be made of impregnated felt, paper, burlap, or finely divided granular or fibrous material, such as asbestos, held together by a. sultable binder. The binder, or lmpregnating material commonly used is a bituminous composition, although magnesite compounds and fire-proof cements are also used. Such composition roofing is in wide use in the form of long strips or webs of relatlvely flexible 2 material, ordinarily shipped in rolls, and
these strips are unrolled on the roof and attached thereto in any convenient man'ner. Composition roofing is also made in the form of single roofing elements similar-to shingles, tiles, and the like, but in this form the elements have a greater degree of rigidity than the web material. Com osition roofing ma terial of the type above riefly described has the advantage of cheapness over ordinary wood or slate shingles, andthe web type is most conveniently used, particularly at the angles of the roof or in other places where ordinary roofing materials cannot be applied in a continuous layer but must be cut'in ac- 40 point of application. This composition roofing, however is objectionable to some extent byreason of its appearance. Also it has a tendency to deteriorate, due to the volatili-r zation of thelighteroils of the binding compound and the surfaceis somewhat soft so that when subject to wear it is likely to have a shorter life than other harder materials.
Metal roofin haslalso been used to agreat extent but is objectionable on account of the rapidity with which it transmits heat and also because of its cost. In the co-pending application, above referred to, however, there is described a roofing which overcomes the several disadvantages of both types and the roofing is of the web type and the metallic cordance with the shape ofithe roof at the- .that adherence between the strip and the desired object is attained by. applyingto a composition base a wear-resisting, protective stri which is preferably made of a non-corrodlble metal such as copper or zinc. This strip is designed to cover only that area of the web which will be exposed when the latter is in position on the roof. By
the metallic strip to the weather surface only, it is possible to reduce the cost of'the finished product and also to provide for anoverla ping joint construction which is more satlsfactory than would be the case if the metal covered the entire surface of the strip.
Along the edges of the strip is left an uncoated selvage of the base material and when ,the strips are to be used in the various ways made necessary by the configuration of the roof, the joints between adjacent strips or between the strip and adjacent elements of the shingle type, are formed by overlap ing and contacting sections of the base. ince the base material has a relatively soft surface this insures that the two overlapping areas will lie with their surfaces in intimate contact sothat a water-tight joint is produced. Also this selvage portion permits of the use of nails for attaching the strip to the roof proper without producing holes in the composition which would wear lar er under varying temperature conditions an thus resalt in leaks. Furthermore by making the joint between uncoated surfaces of the base it is possible to apply an adhesive compound similar to that used for binding or impregnating processes so as to make a water-proof joint, thus obviating the use of solder, as is necessary in plain metal roofing. Also the use of a joint formed between com osition surfaces prevents leakage due to capillarity. The present invention is intended to provide a process and apparatus for the production. of the roofing material above referred to, and in accordance with this invention a stri of the protective metal is progressively app ied' to the surface of the base web and the two are united by the progressive :appli-. cation of heat and pressure. Iniproducing base, which is necessary in" order that the roofing may be'flexed to conform to thereof surface, I take advantage of the fact that the base is ordinarily coated or-impregnated with a plastic material which may be used as the adhesive. In applying the heat necee- 9 sary to soften this material so that it will wet the strip and upon coolin adhere firmly to it, I localize or confine t e heat to the strip itself in such a way as not to soften the base throughout its entire thickness, and this localization of heat is best carried on by generating heat'in the stripfby means of the electric current. Those steps in the present;
I irregularities of the base resulting during its formation by reason of the character of the material of which the base is formed, or else produced by special treatment for the desired purpose, and thereafter the coating is subected to the localized heating 'so as to prou'ce the desired adherence.
In the present process I prefer to produce the protective material bx electrolytic methods and then progressively lay astrip of such material on the surface of the web. Thereafter the two materials are passed through pressure rolls which serve to maintain them in intimate contact and during the application of such pressure, heat is gener- 1 'ated in the strip by means of an electric ourrent. During this treatment the plastic material in the base softens and expands with a slight bubbling effect with the result that this softened material wets the stri throughout the surface contacting with the ass. The base and strip are maintained under pressure for such a length of time as is necessary to permit the plastic ingredient to set, whereupon the finished product is rolled up in rolls o such length as is desired. In the production of such material it is ossible to make use of a preformed strip of s eet metal of the desired shape and thickness, although I prefer to produce this. protective coating electrolytically for reasons of economy. In the latter case I make use of a rotary cathode having a suitably prepared surface and I cause a layer of the metal to be deposited. on the surface of this cathode in a continuous operation. As the cathode rotates thGdGPOSHG is stripped therefrom and then used directly, or else it may bebuilt up to any desired thickness by passage between s aced anodes in an electrolytic cell. From t e elecrolytic tank the strip may next pass, if desired, through a vat of coloring material, containing chemicals which would produce desired color effects, and thereafter .the strip passes through a trimming device which gives it a smooth edge. It is possible to make use of a rotary cathode of a length substantially equal to the width of the strip, using a separate electrolytic cell for ecah line of heating and pressing rolls, although I prefer to make use of a cathode in the form of a drum on which is deposited a sheet of metal sufficient to from a protective covering for several composition webs. As this sheet is stripped fromthe surface of the drum it is split into the desired widths and the strips so formed may then be led directly to the apparatus for applying the strips to the base material, or else these strips may be Wound into rolls and later be applied to the base. By using a drum cathode ofconsiderable width it is possible to produce the metal more economically and with a greater uniformity in' quality and thickness.
In the accompanying drawings I have illustrated, more or less diagrammatically, a suitable apparatus for carrying on acontinuous process in which the metal strip is formed and directly laid upon and united to the surface of the web of base material. In these drawings,
Fig. 1 is a view in side elevation of the complete apparatus, including a coloring tank,
Fig. 2 is a View similar to Fig. 1, omitting the coloring tank, but showing the necessary modifications for the purpose-of building up the deposit by further electro-deposition,
Fig. 3 is a plan view of a length of the finished product, and j Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the product, showing the protective strip partially torn away. 1
Fig. 5 is a side view of a contact roll used in the new apparatus.
Referring now to these drawings, it will be seen that the apparatus includes an electrolytic tank 5, having a somewhat angular bottom 6, so that the quantity of solution to be used may be as small as possible. Mounted in suitable bearings in the end walls of thetank is a rotary cathode 7 having a smooth surface of lead or'oth'er metal from which the deposit may readily be stripped. This cathode may be of a light metal structure, having those surfaces which pass beneath the surface of the liquor and are not to receive a deposit enameled or coated with an impervious composition so that the metal is not affected by the electrolyte. The dimensions of the cathode will depend on several factors. The diameter of the cathode will determine the peripheral speed which must be given it to produce a stri of the desired thickness under any selected e ectrolytic condltions, and the axial length will be determined by the wldth of the strip to be produced. The cathode may be designed to produce a single strip to be applied to the base web, but preferably is of such length that the deposited materlal may be slit -so as tovform several strips to be apparts of the apparatus.
plied simultaneously to different webs. The cathode is provided with a shaft 8 which is driven from a suitable source of power and the cathode is also provided with electrical connections which, in this case, may take the form of brushes bearing on the surface of the cathode at spaced points arranged so as to produce a uniform distribution of the current throughout the cathode run. These brushes are not illustrated but are of the common type well-known in the art. The cathode drum or Wheel is preferably mounted so that the shaft is above the liquid level in the tank. Located in the tank below the cathode is an arcuate anode 9, which is formed of the metal to be deposited and for convenience will be referred to as copper, although it will be understood that various other metals may be used for producing the strip. The anode is formed on an arc, corresponding to the shape v of the cathode and is located a short distance from the surface of the cathode. The anode is connected with a suitable source of power so that current will flow from the anode into the solution and pass outwardly from the cathode brushes, this current flow producing, a deposit of the metal from the electrolyte on the surface of the cathode in the usual Way.
The cathode is rotated with a slow, uniform movement, and the electrolytic conditions in the tank, that is to say, the current density, the strength of the electrolyte, etc., are so selected that during such rotation there will be deposited a continuous, uniform sheet of metal of the desired thicknesson the surface of the cathode. As the cathode rotates this metal is stripped from its surface at the point 10, which is located slightly above the solution line, and if it is found necessary a stripper blade 11 may be employed at this point.
The stripped sheet is guided over a roller 12,
which insures that the strip produced will be supported above the surface of the electrolyte v so that there is no possibility of the metal in the strip again golng into solution, and the strip then passes over another guide roller (selection of the proper chemicals, according to metal-deposited and the use to which the strip is to be put. The coloring tank is in the form of a vat having a V-shaped bottom. Located just above the apex of the bottom is a roller 15, so that the strip passing out of the electrolytic tank is led down beneath this roller, thence outwardly over a guide roller 16, from which it passes to the various other If desired, suitable washing tanks,similar in general to the coloring tank 14, may also be provided so that when the strip finally passes over the guide roller 16 to receive further treatment the coloring operation will be complete and the trated in the drawings, the pressure is con tinuous, that is the strip is applied to the base web as rapidly as it is formed, but 1nasmuch as the electrolytic operation is slow as compared to the step of applying the strip to the base, one uniting apparatus will serve for several electrolytic tanks and for reasons of. economy it is preferable to take up the strip formeftl in the tank on an arbor and use these rolls of metal in the uniting apparatus as they may be needed. In the drawings the strip is shown as being led directly from the trimming rolls to the uniting devices simply for convenience of illustration.
The uniting apparatus consists of a table 18, the upper surface of which is provided with a series of rolls 19, serving to support the strip in its passage thereover. At the front end of the table is supported a supply of base material, here shown in the form of a roll 20, carried on a suitable arbor. The base web is drawn from this supply roll over a guide roll 21 and passes over the-top of the table underneath the metal strip, the two being held in intimate contact by a series of pressure rolls 22. In the event that a single uniting apparatus is to serve a number of tanks the metal strip in the roll form will be supported at any convenient location near the supply of base material, and the strip and web will be led together over the roll 21 in a-manner similar to thatnow illustrated. a
The base which I prefer to use is a roofing felt impregnated with asphalt and having a coating of asphalt. In the event that such a coating has not been applied, a thin layer of asphalt or the like is applied to the surface of'the base before it comes into contact with the strip. The strip and the base lying in contact, pass over the top of the table and near the front edge thereof pass between a pair of rolls 23 and 24. The lower roll is mounted infixed bearings and is provided witha yielding surface which may be formed of rubber. The upper roll 23 is mounted in adjustable bearings sothat it may be caused to bear on the Web passing thereunder, with a regulated pressure. The roll 23is mounted on journals 45 and has at either end contact rings 46, one of which receives current from a brush 47, while another'brush 48 withdraws rubber. As the material passes between these rolls current is caused to flow from one 'contact, into the metallic strip, thence back to the line through the other contact, and this current is regulated so as to produce a heating efiect which raises the temperature of the metal strip to a degree suflicient to soften the plastic compound on the base and the impregnating material in a thin stratum alon the face upon which the metal has been lai The heating of this material causes it to ,soften and swell so as to wet the surface of the metal which is pressed against the base with a regulated pressure.
Passing from between the rolls 23 and 24, the base and strip enter pressure rolls 22, previously referredto, and are there maintained in intimate contact for a period sufiicient to permit the plastic substance to set and thus V gbind the strip firmly to the base. Inasmuch as the metallic layer is comparatively thin, the heating sufiicient to produce the desired result may be rapidly carried on and one pair of rolls similar to 23, 24 are ordinarily sufficient. However, it is possible to make use of two or more pairs of such rolls to increase the s eed of operation if desired. The heat whic has been generated in the metal does not extend, to any considerable degree into the base itself, but simply softens the plastic substance in a thin stratum of the base while the rest of the base is unaffected. The strip also loses its heat quickly by radiation and this permits the lastic substance to set rapidly.
Passing om the pressure rolls 2 2, 22, which may vary in number in accordance with the needs of the material being produced, and which are adjustable so as to permit of regulation of the pressure applied, the composite web now passes between trimmingrolls 25, similar to the rolls 17 ,these rolls serving to trim theedges of the selvage to produce material of a selected width. In some instances this second trimming step ma also be omitted. From the trimming rol s the material passes through further pressure rolls 26, 26,
and is then led 01f and rolled up, as indicated at 27. I
As has previously 'beenexplained, the rotary cathode is driven from a suitable source of power and certain of the pressure rolls and 1 the heating rolls may also be driven, thus p providing a means for forwarding the material without subjecting. it to undue-tension- ,lheseveral driven elements however, will be 'roperly co-ordinated so that the material is advanced through the-apparatus with a nifd'rm movement and this rate of movement will in turn depend on the rapidit phwith which the deposition is carriedon. eobj ect of such regulation is to produce a strip of the desired thickness and quality and to carry on this production continuously so that the apparatus may be operated without interruption.
In Fig. 1, the apparatus suitable for the production of a deposit suitable for one width of base material has been illustrated, but in the event'that it is desired to use a drum of greater length for the deposition it is only necessary to provide a suitable trimming device to slit this deposit to the desired width, and then pass the different parts of the deposit through heating and pressure rolls which 'are suitably located so that the production of the diflerent webs will not interfere with each other. For this purpose the structures containing the pressure rolls will preferably be of varyingheiglits and placed in staggered relation.
In the apparatus illustrated in Fig. 2 the construction is, in general, similar to that previously described but in this arrangement the strip taken from the rotary cathode is a built up by passage through spaced anodes mounted within the tank. The tank 28 accordingly has a deep portion in which the rotary cathode is supported, and a relatively shallow extension 29 in which s aced anodes 30 are disposed. The strip 31 ta en from the drum passes beneath a guide roll 32 between the first pair of anodes, thence overguide through the trimming device previously'de-.
scribed, is then laid as: fast as it is formed on a web of the base material and thenpasses between heating and pressure rolls to cause the metal to adhere to the base. The con- 'struction of the apparatus for the latter purpose is similar to that previously described.
In Fig. 2 the coloring and wash tanks have been omitted but it is to be understood, of course, that such coloring treatment may be given the strip if desired. "In both Figs. 1 and 2 there is shown a cleanerdevice 35 which maybe in the form of. a sore ror'ibrush bearing against the surface-1o {thecathode and serving to clean it of; .which might resu t the deposit.
In Fig. 3 there is shown 2, str .of the new in breaking the continuity-of.
material of the preferred form; lnthat figare the base material is shown to have selvage portions 36, 36, whilethe protective strip 37 is applied to thebase centrallykthereof. It will be clear that it may be desirable in some .instancesto apply the protective strip along one edge of the base I or in .location's other than that shown. For this purposeit is only necessary to arrangethe sourceofsupplyof the base material so that the strip will be laid thereon in the desired location, the other steps of applying heat and pressure remaining substantially the same with such slight adjustments in the position of the contacts and the trimming rolls as may be necessary for the new product.
Fi 4 illustrates the new product compose of a web of base material 38 to which the protective strip 39 has been applied. It
will be noted, partlcularly at the left in Fig.
4, that'the base is of somewhat varying thickness due to inequalities in the material due 5 to its production. The protective strip, however, owing to its passage through the various adjustable pressure rolls, is caused to conform to the irregularities in the base and is held thereto by reason of. the plastic material which is caused-'to'wet and adhere to the strip.
"While ll'have illustrated an apparatus in which the metallic strip is formed by electrolytic methods and is then laid, as rapidly as it is formed, on the base, material and then united thereto, it is to be understood, of
course, that I may dispense with the electrolytic step and use a preformed metallic strip. In this latter instance a supply of thesheet metal will be mounted in a location similar to the supply of the base Web and the two materials will then be led acrossthe table 18, passed through the heating and pressure rolls and then to the take-up rolls, as has previously been set forth. I prefer to employ the electrolytic method, however for reasons of economy.
It will be seen that I have devised a process and apparatus suitable for the continuous production of the new roofing material by in which such material may be produced with a minimum of expense and attention. The process is carried out without interruption .so long as supplies of thebase and strip are available, or until the anodes are consumed,
4 if the strip is to be led directly from the tank to the u'niting apparatus. In the electrolytic tank the electrolyte will be refreshed from time to time in the tank and new anodes will be mounted in place as the old ones are con sumed. The finished material taken from the uniting apparatus is wound into rolls of comprises moving longitudinally a' web of fibrous material coated with an asphaltic substance in non-adhesive condition, progressively laying a strip of metal on the coated surface of the web, and thereafter progressively uniting the strip and web by electrically generating heat in the metal at one point in the movement of the strip and web, the heat being sufiicient to soften the asphaltic coating on the web'and render it tacky, and by subjecting the strip and web to pressure applied at the point where the heating takes place and also a plied beyond this point.

Mormon young man faces loss of three family members with faith (+video)
"I feel like those people beyond the veil are guiding me," Ceran said.
Ceran also cherishes the relationship he maintains with his 25-year-old sister, Clarissa, and his dad (the two other survivors of the accident), as well as new family members.
In March of 2008, Gary Ceran remarried Corrine Peterson, and a stepmother and four stepsiblings joined the Ceran family.
"I can't even express how blessed I am that I have two amazing moms," Ceran said.
Amidst the ups and downs of blending a family, the Cerans continued to grow. In October of 2010, the family hosted four orphans from Ukraine for two weeks.
After spending days attempting to communicate using a few words from each of the two tongues, the Ceran's decided they wanted to adopt three of the children who were siblings.
It wasn't an easy process, but the Ceran's saw miracles along the way. They were able to raise the $51,000 they needed by having garage sales and selling items door-to-door in different neighborhoods. Caleb was even able to sell the portrait he drew of President Thomas S. Monson for just more than $2,000.
During the adoption process, changes in Ukrainian laws attempted to ban Americans from adopting in that country, but after two trips to Ukraine, the Cerans returned with their three newest children: 14-year-old Christina, 11-year-old Alex and 9-year-old Jacob.
"They are honestly some of my best friends," Ceran said, speaking of his three new siblings. "I feel like I'm in a movie or something. It's just too good to be true that we have them."
During his senior year of high school, Ceran began to struggle with resurfacing emotions of loss and to feel pain he'd never experienced before. Although he felt like a truly happy person, he realized he hadn't completely been able to heal from his loss.
"Those pains and sufferings that I felt really helped me feel close to the Savior, and now I have so much more compassion for others," Ceran said. "One of the greatest blessings of my trials has been to speak with other people who have dealt with trials."
Through his times of trouble, Ceran relied on prayer, scripture study and playing the piano to bring him peace.
Recently, Ceran recorded a CD, which he'll release in the coming weeks. He is selling it to raise money for his LDS mission.
One of the songs from the CD, titled "Part of Me," has been released on YouTube.
Ceran dedicated this song to two people in his life: his mom and his best friend who moved to Germany after high school graduation.
His song features lyrics such as "Though you're leaving now/though we'll be far apart/I'm keeping you here close inside my heart/Though my eyes will not see you/I will still feel you near/your faith your strength and love will be forever part of me."
"I wanted to write that song because both my friend and my mom are part of me, and I just have kind of had that feeling where I know part of me is missing, but I know that it will come back," Ceran said. "The song is to kind of say thank you for the way they've touched my life and inspired me. It's a song to let them know I'll never forget them."

I would have given you a 1 or a 2 but the amount of time i wasted waiting for the actually flash to play out was too long... it wasn't funny, the bunny wasn't that cute, it really didn't have anything of interest to me

Both love money, and have trademarked their names in pursuit of making more of it.Palin filed to trademark her name—and her daughter Bristol's—earlier this month. And Assange, who has always presented Wikileaks as a nonprofit, noncommercial endeavor, filed to trademark his in the UK two weeks ago. (He's also filed marks for Wikileaks and its logo.) According to the application, Assange hopes to use his name exclusively to market his "public speaking services; news reporter services; [and] entertainment services." When Palin trademarked her name, experts found it unusual inasmuch as most politicians don't seek to profit from the use of their names. Assange is perfectly free, of course, to attempt to corner the market among reportorial service providers named Julian Assange. But it's worth pointing out that much more famous British journalists like Jeremy Paxon and Martin Bashir haven't taken the same step. So far, Assange hasn't filed in the U.S. Advertisement [Photo via Getty]Reply38 repliesLeave a reply

So after many long phone convo's with my Fiance we have finally came up with a name for our son.
So I think it is going to be Christopher like I said I think. At first I wanted to stick to my theme and now I was going to change it, but my Fiance really loves this name. I had my turn naming my girls so therefore it is his turn.
We have a lot going on in our lives right now.. so if this little thing makes him happy then so be it. I liked the name and the way I see it, it could be worse.
Have any of you guys had a hard time on coming up and agreeing with a name??

I am creating an application. I am running a countdown timer and saving time into a database by converting time into a floating point value (double). Suppose I start the timer at 2.00 PM and set the countdown for 3 hours. After 1 hour I quit the application and on relaunch I am getting time stored from database. Count the difference between stored time and current time I restore the timer according to that, but what if I quit the application and change the time zone to something else?
How do I handle this or how do I fix a specific time zone so that even user changes the time zone the timer always works perfect?

Preservationists protesting Postal Service's efforts to sell old buildings, cut lossesBreaking News
tags: historic preservation, Fox News, USPS, Post Office
The financially strapped U.S. Postal Service is running into opposition from historic preservationists as the agency tries to cut losses by selling off buildings.
The postal service lost $15.9 billion last year, after losing $5.1 billion in 2011 -- as online services continue to replace money-making mail deliveries.
Hundreds of post offices are on the National Register of Historic Places, which largely protects them from being demolished, or are protected under deals with new owners....

Product Description
This wonderful disc is another souvenir of the great Czech pianist Rudolf Firkusny's return to his homeland after the triumph of democracy in the early 1990s. We are very lucky that he lived to make this recording. Firkusny was a personal friend of the composer, and he gave the premieres of all three of these concertos. He plays them with a sovereign mastery that brooks no competition, and the music itself is marvelous. The Fourth Concerto, subtitled Incantations, is one of the century's most exciting and unusual scores for piano and orchestra, while the other two explore both the classical and Romantic heritage of the form. This is a recording that has "greatness" stamped all over it. You must hear it. --David Hurwitz

Mystery Science Theater 3000
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Mystery Science Theater 3000 is the very definition of a cult show: It's not for everyone, but those who like it really like it. Because the show's premise relies on an old movie being played as the main characters watch, iffy content can vary depending on which movie is the focus. Occasional scenes of violence or scantily clad women appear in these movies, but the humorous tone of the series lightens any heavy scenes. The humor runs the gamut from toilet humor to truly erudite geek jokes. Older teens, particularly those with a bent for sci fi, fantasy, and technology, can appreciate the show, though they may need a geeky, well-read mom or dad to explain a lot of the references.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's the story?
MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000's theme song sets up the entire plot of the show: Joel (later replaced by Mike) is just another guy in a red jumpsuit at the Gizmonic Institute. His mad scientists bosses didn't like him, so they shot him into space. There, with the help of his (puppet) robot pals, he's trapped on the Satellite of Love, forced to watch the cheesiest bad movies of all time, while the Mads keep track of his reactions back on Earth. Joel and the 'Bots cope by roundly mocking the movies they must watch, commenting wryly in silhouette on the lower right of the screen as the movie plays. The Satellite of Love also competes with the Mads to invent the wackiest objects, such as canine antiperspirant or the scratch-n-sniff report card.
Is it any good?
Profoundly ridiculous and shockingly smart, Mystery Science Theater 3000 became an instant nerd classic when it premiered in 1988 on an obscure Minnesota television station, and time has not diminished its luster. Though the idea of a guy in a space suit and a couple of robots (one shaped like a gumball machine!) wisecracking about bad movies is admittedly goofy, the lightning-quick wit and astonishing cleverness of the cast's quips will first kill you with laughter, then send you running to Wikipedia. You may find yourself looking up Werner Ehrhard or Merchant-Ivory or the cast of Starsky & Hutch after each episode; rest assured that there are annotated guides of obscure MST3K references online.
The quality of the movies mocked on MST3K varies widely, but the quality of the jokes made about them absolutely doesn't. Thus pretty much every two-hour episode is genius, and beloved by smart science-y types the world over. Not everyone will enjoy the show, but those who enjoy it become the kind of slavish fans who would happily attend a Mystery Science Theater 3000 -con or -o-rama. Watching any episode is (about) two hours of guaranteed fun.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about how Mystery Science Theater 3000 takes on obscure bad movies. What makes these movies "bad"? How are they different from the kinds of movies you go to see in the theater? Is the dialogue different? Plots? Costumes, lighting, scenery?
The Satellite of Love characters and the mad scientists compete over who can invent the most interesting or useful objects. Do you ever see anything on the show that you think is a good idea? Do you ever have ideas for inventions?

Ronnie Lee Gardner's life ends with hardly a word
Witnesses not certain he died immediately
Trent Nelson
UTAH STATE PRISON — Following a flurry of last-minute appeals in a struggle to save his life, Ronnie Lee Gardner's life ended early Friday with hardly a word.
"I do not, no," Gardner said when asked if he had any final words, while slightly shaking his head as much as his restraints would allow.
A black hood was placed over Gardner's head, and less than a minute later, five guns made two booming sounds in quick succession — "ba-boom" — and Gardner became the third man in the United States — all of them in Utah — to be executed by firing squad since the moratorium on capital punishment in the United States was lifted in 1976.
The shots were fired at 12:15 a.m., and Gardner was pronounced dead two minutes later. From the time a curtain was opened to allow nine media members and five others to witness the execution to the time it was closed after the shooting was complete took about four minutes.
Gardner was strapped to a chair at six different places on his body: forehead, shoulders, chest, waist, wrists and ankles. On each side of the chair were 13 sandbags, nine of them stacked on top of each other. Behind the chair was a wood panel painted black. Each panel was 2 inches wide.
As the curtain opened, Gardner was fully strapped to his chair but his eyes wandered back and forth and seemed to focus on the reflective glass separating him and the media witness room. Warden Steve Turley asked Gardner if he had any final words and told him he had two minutes to make a statement.
But before the microphone was even put in front of Gardner, he said he did not have any final comments.
Gardner wore a dark blue jumpsuit and white socks, no shoes. A small, white, square target with a dark bull's-eye circle, and a dark circle around that, was Velcroed to his left breast. After the black hood was placed over his head, everyone else exited the room. About 30 seconds later, the fatal shots were fired, seemingly without warning.
"I think we were all struck as we were talking after how deceiving the sense of time was," KUER/KUED witness Doug Fabrizio said. "Particularly the time from when the warden left and Mr. Gardner was there alone to when the shots were fired. It's hard to get a sense of that. We didn't hear a command. It just happened."
Media members said they did not hear a countdown, but corrections department director Tom Patterson said the gunmen started at 5, counted down and fired when they got to 2. Patterson did not know if Gardner was able to hear their countdown.
Before the shots were fired, with his hands strapped to his side, Gardner was slowly moving his left thumb over his forefingers. He was cooperative, according to prison officials, but according to witnesses, did not seem completely relaxed.
After the shots were fired, Gardner's left hand clinched into a fist. The fist eased a little and his thumb stroked his forefingers again. But then his left hand clinched into a fist again and his arm moved up and down slightly and slowly, bent at the elbow.
"It convulsed. It seemed rubbery almost the way he hitched his arm," Fabrizio said. "And then, as has been said, he clenched his fist and then he let go and then clenched it again."
Gardner's arm and hand continued to move for about two minutes, leaving some media members to wonder for a brief moment if he would have to be shot again.
But someone from the Utah State Medical Examiner's Office entered the room a short time later and declared him dead. The examiner checked for a pulse on both sides of Gardner's neck after lifting his hood, and then lifted his hood even more to use a flashlight to look at Gardner's eyes.
When the hood was lifted, witnesses could see that Gardner's mouth was open, his head slightly back and tilted to the right, and the coloring in his face had turned ashen.

VC Statement on Gender Equality
Gender equality is about fundamental human rights and is integral to our commitment to be a world class university recognised for world class education and research.
The University has a proud track record on advancing gender equality. My predecessor, Emeritus Professor Janice Reid AM and the senior executive worked for many years to increase the representation of women in leadership positions, to reduce the gender pay gap and to promote workplace flexibility.
There are a range of supporting strategies and policies in place in the Equity and Diversity Strategic Plan, the Our People 2015 Staffing Strategy, the Equal Opportunity and Diversity Policy and the Enterprise Agreements.
Currently over 50% of our staff and students are women, 41% of all managers are women and we have one of the highest rates of women professors (41%) in the sector.
I want to build further upon this impressive foundation. If we are to be leaders in excellence in teaching, innovation and research it is critical that we utilise the skills and capacities of all our staff.
To guide this process I established the Gender Equality Committee to assist in implementing the University 's Gender Equality Strategy and Action Plan 2015-2020 PDF, 56.96 KB. The Strategy addresses how to better support those areas of the organisation that have traditionally struggled to recruit, retain and advance female staff, as well as strategies to facilitate a deeper understanding and commitment to gender equity across the entire organisation.
To progress gender equality further we must challenge the beliefs and attitudes that are undermining progress.
To progress gender equality I want to renew the focus on workplace flexibility. We have the policies and procedures in place. It is time to commence a dialogue on how to better implement flexibility in practise at all levels of the university.
I want us to challenge the status quo, to be innovative and creative in how we overcome the barriers that women face, particularly in the STEM disciplines and related non-traditional occupations.
I want to continue the University's proud reputation as a sector leader in gender equality.
Professor Barney Glover
Vice Chancellor and University President

One of our favorite styles, it's likely to be one of yours too.

US law prods states to revisit health care rules
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Prompted by the health care overhaul law, several states are updating their rules for insurance networks to better reflect who is covered and how people shop for and use their benefits.
Laws governing health insurance vary, but states generally try to ensure that health plans give residents reasonable access to a sufficient number of primary care and specialty physicians, said Tyler Brannen, a health policy analyst for the state of New Hampshire. Yet that aim hasn't kept up with changes in how and where people access health care, he added.
For example, nurse practitioners and physician's assistants now provide a significant share of primary care, and many consumers head to urgent care clinics instead of scheduling office visits, he said. And the current focus on hospitals ignores the reality that virtually every service provided during a short-term hospital stay is now available in other settings, including ambulatory surgical centers.
"There's going to be an emphasis on types of services, versus types of providers," he said of the new standards being put in place.
New Hampshire recently began working to revise its 2001 rules, and while its first step in that direction came after a consumer challenged them under the Affordable Care Act, Brannen said he realized years ago that the standards were outdated. Washington state just implemented new regulations, and discussions are underway in several others, including Arkansas, Minnesota and California.
Also changing is how many people have insurance and who makes up that group, with previously uninsured residents gaining coverage through the health overhaul law and the expansion of Medicaid, which in New Hampshire will involve using federal money to buy private health coverage.
"We're now talking about people with different health care needs, and different abilities to travel to providers," Brannen said.
Similar discussions are playing out elsewhere, said John Weis of Quest Analytics, a Wisconsin company that provides software and consulting services for health plans, employers and government agencies seeking to measure network adequacy.
"States are saying, 'Boy, you know what? The process I had in place wasn't really sufficient,'" he said. "What you've witnessed over the last six months is consumers saying, 'Hey, my provider's not in the network, my hospital's not in the network, these networks are so skinny, there's no access to care,' because there weren't any rules that prohibited plans from doing that."
Given the relatively quick implementation requirements of the health overhaul law, however, most states did not have sufficient time to revamp their process, Weis said. Regulations vary by state, and states are taking different pathways to update them. Legislative approval is required in some states, while in others, insurance departments have the authority to make changes.
Anna Odegaard is head of an advisory committee representing consumers and small businesses in Minnesota. She believes the standards adopted when the state created its marketplace, MNsure, aren't strong enough because they only focus on how far patients live from providers and not on whether those providers are actually accepting new patients.
Her committee has heard complaints from providers who believe their specialties are not well represented in the marketplace and from navigators who helped people sign up for coverage. Many new enrollees had no idea whether their doctors would be included until after they signed up, she said.
"The conversation right now is: How do we get MNinsure or the Department of Health to do the data collection to substantiate that there really is a problem, so we can come back around with solutions?" she said.
Washington state's insurance department began developing a new network adequacy rule in September, and the approved changes took effect Monday. The new regulation was designed to give consumers more information about the networks, according to Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler. In a statement, he said many consumers were upset to find their health plan no longer included their trusted doctor or hospital.
"The Affordable Care Act increased benefits, but it also expanded the role consumers are expected to play when shopping for health insurance," he said.
The previous network rules dated back to 1998 and hadn't been modified since 2003. Under the rule, insurers must supply detailed geographic information illustrating how their networks meet the needs of all their enrollees. It doesn't prohibit narrow networks but requires all networks to guarantee timely and adequate access to care.
"I also want health insurers to innovate, especially if it helps keep costs down for consumers, but innovation cannot be at the expense of a consumer's ability to access care," Kreidler said.
Balancing access with affordability, while increasing transparency for consumers, also are key goals in New Hampshire, Brannen said.

|Delete problem with temp files
|Mon, 13 Nov 2000 23:50:08 GMT
Hi - anyone able to help please . . . Ok, I know this is probably going to sound daft but, I am trying to get a clean target to work. It is supposed to delete all emacs backup files from the source tree (under win NT) Ant 1.3 alpha Nov 07. I have a patternset set to "**/*~" and a delete task that has a fileset dir="${src}" and the just mentioned patternset being referenced. If I set the patterset to say **/*.bak" it works but for "**/*#" and "**/*~" the delete does nothing and does not error either. Any ideas what I am doing wrong ? Huw

I hesitate to post this on the 13th Floor because, honestly, I don't think it's really worth reporting. I feel like this is akin to reporting on a mayor's getting a divorce or having a baby.
But this fact is, it is interesting. Steve Stanton, the longtime city manager of Largo, FL, a town of 76,000, has announced plans to undergo gender-reassignment surgery this year.
He's going to stay in office while he goes through the process, which could take over a year. Ultimately, he'll change his name to Susan.
As the St. Petersburg Times says, Stanton will be one of the few public officials anywhere to change genders while in office.
