This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 408,821, filed Oct. 23, 1973 now abandoned.
I. Field of the Invention
The method and apparatus for forming articles containing controlled amounts of binder of this invention is found in U.S. Patent Office Manual of Classification, Class No. 264, Subclass 41, which relates to pore forming in situ.
II. Description of the Prior Art
When forming articles containing controlled amounts of binder, it is customary to only include initially the desired amount of binder. Occasionally, this may not be suitable manner for making some articles.
For instance, simple ceramic articles are usually formed by dry pressing, casting, extruding, or soft mud molding. Once the desired shape is formed, this unfired (green) ware is usually dried and fired to a temperature which will produce the desired porosity and strength in the ceramic piece. With dry pressing, it is difficult to obtain uniform density throughout the formed piece and intricate shapes cannot be formed without machining the unfired or fired ware. Extrusion and soft mud methods are even more limited in the shapes which can be formed.
Casting utilizes a slurry of ceramic and water which can be poured into a mold of the desired shape. Intricate shapes can be formed by casting, but thick-walled articles require a great amount of time to dry before firing and significant density variations can exist. With any of the methods described, it is difficult to control precise dimensions and density of the fired article.
More recent prior art methods for forming more complex-shaped articles are found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,351,688 to Kingery which issued on Nov. 7, 1967, and is entitled PROCESS OF CASTING REFRACTORY MATERIALS, and U.S. Pat. No. 3,416,905 to Waugh which issued on Dec. 17, 1968, and is entitled PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURE OF POROUS ABRASIVE ARTICLES.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,351,688 teaches a method of casting refractory materials by forming the articles in a green state from a slurry of refractory materials, a meltable binder, and a suspending agent. The piece is formed in a liquid state, allowed to solidify, and is then heated to vaporize the binder. The piece is then fired in its final configuration to a desired density. U.S. Pat. No. 3,416,905 teaches a similar process except that the fluid mixture formed comprises abrasive particles, glass frit, and a suspending agent in a meltable binder. The mixture is poured or injection molded onto an article, is allowed to solidify, is heated to vaporize the binder, and subsequently fired forming a porous abrasive article. The glass frit vitreously bonds the abrasive material into the final product.
In use of a meltable binder in forming articles, it has been the practice of those skilled in the art to heat the article being formed to a temperature sufficient to drive the binder from the article as vapor.
Although these uses of a meltable binder represent an improvement over the prior art, particularly for forming intricately shaped articles, vaporization of the binder from the articles has limited the size of the article which may thusly be manufactured. If the article wall thickness is greater than about one-half of an inch, cracking, scaling, and other matrix imperfections can result in the structure during vaporization of the binder. Further, if it is desired to closely control the amount of binder in the article, vaporization of the binder does not allow a regulated discharge of the binder.
Also, the internal pressure caused by the vaporization process can be great enough to produce laminations or internal voids in the article. Thus, if the structure being formed by these prior art methods requires certain porosity and density characteristics and close control of binder amounts present, e.g., thick-walled refractories, the structure thus formed may not be satisfactory.
The present invention is a method and apparatus for forming articles of predetermined form which have controlled dimensions and controlled amounts of binder present and may have intricate shapes without machining. The articles may be relatively thick walled, e.g., greater than 1/2 inch thick, and have controlled physical properties. In this method and apparatus, base materials with a meltable binder are formed as a slurry into an article, and allowed to solidify. The solidified mixture is packed into a binder-absorptive material and is controllably elevated to a temperature above that of the melting point of the binder but below the vaporization temperature of the binder. The binder is drawn from the solidified mixture into the binder-absorptive material by wicking action until the desired amount of binder remains in the article.
FIG. 1 is a schematic drawing of the method and apparatus forming articles containing controlled amounts of binder.
Referring to the drawing, base materials, binder, and a surfactant are mixed and heated at 10 to form a liquid mixture. After molding and cooling at 20, the mixture as a solid configuration of the article being formed is packed in a binder-absorptive material at 30. By raising the temperature of the article above the melting point of the binder but below the vaporization temperature of the binder, the article is wicked at 40 until it contains a desired amount of binder.
More specifically, at 10 a meltable binder is heated and mixed with a base material and a surfactant to a homogeneous liquid state. As shown at 10, the binder is preferably preheated before being added to the base material, so that the time required for the mixture to reach a liquid phase is reduced.
The base material useable in this invention is any material capable of forming a slurry with a meltable binder and which as a slurry, will form a relatively stable configuration upon being solidified. The base material may be in a variety of particle sizes ranging from coarse to relatively fine powders. Suitable base materials include ceramic materials, powdered metals that are heat bondable, and/or precursors of these. Preferred ceramic materials include fused silica, alumina, magnesia, zirconium, zircon, spinels, mullite, glass frits, tungsten and silicon carbides, boron and silicon nitrides, and combinations of these. Powdered metals include graphite, tungsten, silicon, iron, and aluminum. The meltable binder is preferably any material which in a solidified state will act to suspend a base material in a homogeneous dispersion. The binder must have a melting point temperature less than the temperature at which the base material is nondesirably heat altered. Preferred binders include waxes, particularly paraffins and silicones.
If desired, a surfactant may be incorporated so as to provide desired rheological properties to the slurry. Particularly useful surfactants for paraffinic waxes include fatty acids, i.e., oleic acid, and oleophillic sulfonates.
After adequately heating and mixing of the binder, surfactant, and base material at 10, the liquid is formed into the configuration of the article either by injection molding 20 or pouring into molds 21. The molds are cooled so that the base material remains homogeneously dispersed in the binder forming a solidified mixture (or if the article is being formed as a ceramic, a green [unfired] piece) at 22. At 23, the mold is removed from the solidified mixture. At 30, the solidified mixture is packed in a binder-absorptive material.
The binder-absorptive material must have a melting point at least greater than the melting point of the binder and must be compatible enough with the binder when the binder is in a liquid state to absorb the liquid binder. Organic, i.e., polyurethane foam, and inorganic materials, i.e., ceramic powders, may be used with the above-described wax binders. The absorptive material must be nonreactive and chemically stable with the meltable binder and have a sufficiently small particle size so as to not cause imperfections when contacting the solidified mixture. In the practice of this invention, the absorptive material has preferably been inorganic to reduce the material costs for such materials. Useful inorganic absorptive materials include clay materials, fused silica, alumina, zircons, zirconia, and diatomaceous earth. These materials, of course, may have relatively high impurity levels as compared to the base material. When packing the solidified mixture in the absorptive material, it has been found desirable to tamp the packing material to provide good contact of the material with the solidified mixture.
At 40, the solidified mixture, packed in the absorptive material, is placed in a dewaxing oven or kiln and its temperature is raised above the melting point of the meltable binder but below the vaporization temperature of the binder. The article is maintained in this temperature range until the desired amount of binder is removed by the wicking action of the absorptive material on the meltable binder in the article. The vaporization temperature of the binder is that temperature at which the binder is driven off as a gas from the base material rather than being transferred as a liquid mass. It is recognized that the binder even as it is being drawn from the mixture as a liquid inherently gives off an insignificant amount of vapor. However, the amount of vapor formed is minimized so as to not interfere with the transfer of the binder as a liquid from the mixture.
Wicking involves transfer of the binder in its liquid state from the mixture into the absorptive material. The material acts to collect the liquid binder from the surface of the solidified mixture. In the wicking action, the binder is removed from the solidified mixture by liquid transfer through the interstices of the base material and into the absorptive material.
When the desired amount of binder is removed from the article at 50, the article is unpacked from the absorptive material. Because of the availability of inexpensive inorganic absorptive material, the binder containing absorptive material may be discarded or as shown at 51 may be regenerated and recycled to 30 for reuse.
If as shown, the article is a ceramic, the unpacked green piece at 60 is then fired at a sintering temperature until the desired porosity is attained.
As shown in FIG. 1, when a sintered ceramic article is being formed, if an absorptive material is utilized which has a melting point above the firing temperature of the base materials, as shown at 80, the green piece may be wicked and fired without unpacking of the green piece from the absorptive material. This alternative embodiment may be used when it is desired to not unpack the green piece after wicking and further allows the wicking and firing process to be accomplished in one furnace or kiln. During firing of the green piece, the residual meltable binder will be vaporized from the absorptive material. Thus, as shown at 90, after unpacking the fired article, the packing may be recycled back to 30 for reuse. The fired article is then allowed to cool at 70.
It is apparent, particularly for thick-walled articles, that several wicking steps may be utilized. Further, when forming a sintered ceramic article, the above method and apparatus permits a selection of a wide range of sinterable base materials, and close control of the number and size of voids in the final sintered article based upon the amounts and sizes of various constituents in the mixture which is formed into the green piece and eventually fired into the ceramic article.
One hundred pounds of fused silica consisting of a mixture of coarse and fine grained material is mixed with 11.3 pounds of paraffin wax and 0.9 pounds of oleic acid. The solid materials are added to the melted paraffin and oleic acid in any controlled sequence. The temperature of the mixture is raised above the melting point (140� F.) to a temperature which allows a good wax viscosity for mixing (approximately 200� F.). The mixture is thoroughly agitated under a vacuum of 25 inches of mercury until a fluid homogeneous mixture is obtained. The slurry is then injection molded at about 80 psi into an aluminum mold. The mixture is then solidified by the cool die to form the green piece.
The green piece is removed from the mold when the temperature of the formed piece is sufficiently below the melting point to allow handling without causing defects. The green piece is then placed in a container and the container is packed with fused silica. The container is sufficiently larger than the piece to allow the binder-absorptive packing material to cover the piece on all sides relatively uniformly. The container with the ware is placed in a furnace which has a temperature of 180� to 250� F. The container (with green piece) is allowed to soak until approximately 45 to 65 per cent of the total organics have been removed from the green piece. The piece is then fired to 2,100� F., and held at this temperature for several hours and allowed to cool. The final apparent porosity of the article is approximately 18 per cent.
It will be understood that various changes in the details, materials, steps, and arrangements of parts herein described may be made by those skilled in the art and will fall within the principle and the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

Swanson: Criminalize Homosexuality… For Freedom
Colorado-based pastors Kevin Swanson and Dave Buehner were unsurprisingly mortified by a ruling against a Colorado bakery which discriminated against gay customers, leaving Buehner to wonder if schools will soon be "forced to hire Jerry Sandusky when he's on parole."
"What I think the homosexuals are doing is pressing into every nook and cranny of civil society," Swanson said, urging on fundamentalist Christians to "impose God's laws upon our systems, especially our political systems."
He called on Christians to advocate for the recriminalization homosexuality…for freedom: "God's laws require that we prosecute homosexuals who are caught in the act of homosexuality or the act of sodomy on the basis of two or three witnesses. If Christians would do that, if Christian pastors would do that then we would be able to hopefully press back the line upon those who are impressing their rights upon Christians who really need that religious freedom."

Ad Roundup: Integrations, mobile DMPs and partnerships
This week, a new mobile platform is launched to improve brands' mobile data, an integration pushes customer data at scale across channels and another platform offers mobile survey options.
First, Adobe Campaign and Adobe Experience Manager have integrated their systems. Through the new integration advertisers will be able to push content to consumer in real time and at scale across channels.
"Marketers need a better way to create, optimize, and deliver content across all online and offline channels," said Suresh Vittal, vice president, marketing strategy, Digital Marketing, Adobe. "The integration between Adobe's leading web content and campaign management solutions enables marketers to deliver unparalleled, personalized experiences in the channels their customers prefer. This milestone is the first of many that will showcase ongoing and deep integration of Adobe Campaign with Adobe Marketing Cloud."
Meanwhile Lotame has released a Mobile DMP to help mobile brands manage audience data from mobile devices. The platform allows brands to collect first party mobile audience data from browsers, organize and analyze the data and then activate the data across native applications to better target mobile consumers.
"Today, businesses implementing a mobile strategy need a complete DMP solution that not only saves time managing user activity on different devices, but also addresses technical limitations of data collection inherent in the mobile environment," said Andy Monfried, CEO and Founder at Lotame. "Our clients already leverage Lotame's core DMP strengths to help monetize their mobile data assets. We're now leaping ahead with a full mobile DMP offering to organize vast amounts of mobile audience data."
Finally, Astra Sweets has tapped Survey Anyplace Mobile Surveys to get real time customer feedback.
"We designed Survey Anyplace to be simple to use from both the consumer and surveyor perspective," said Stefan Debois, CEO of Survey Anyplace Mobile Surveys. "Integrating the features of the mobile itself enables the capture of unique information that cannot be collected with traditional survey tools."

This dish has nice flavor and we did enjoy eating it. It was very easy to put together which is always nice. It does have a bit of kick to it because of the pepper flakes, which makes it taste less like an Asian dish. Thank you for a yummy and quick supper idea.

In a lot of cases, we have to set particular http headers for objects. For example to set the caching age, caching control etc. How the http headers can be set? This can be done very easily using the Apache web server configuration file.
Suppose you want to set http headers for the mp4 or mpd(MPEG Dash) video files served by the webserver.
Open the httpd.conf in your favourite editor and add the following.
<FilesMatch ".(mpd|mp4)">
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Origin,Content-Type,Access-Control-Allow-Origin,Range,Accept"
Header set Access-Control-Expose-Headers "Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Content-Length, Content-Type, Date, Range, Server, Transfer-Encoding"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET,POST,PUT,DELETE,OPTIONS"
Header set Access-Control-Max-Age "1800"
Restart or reload Apache.
Thats it. Have fun. Share the knowledge.

In a place in Africa we follow a group of children preparing their kites for an adventure of their life.
One by One is a fine example of artistic film-making. There is no dialog in this short, but the commentary is clear none-the-less. The music, which is reminiscent of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, is perfectly set to the story, which highlights the grace of the human spirit, even in the worst of circumstances. The children in the film find ways to celebrate life amidst the backdrop of oppression and abject poverty. The lighting and special effects easily transport the viewer to the fields of Africa, creating an unforgettable ambiance. My children also loved it, and made up their own lyrics to the African chanting so they could sing along. This is one of the best shorts I've seen in a very long time. It's too bad this film never got a theatrical release, as it would have garnered Disney a Best Oscar nomination, if not the award itself.

Daniel Altman is Big Think's Chief Economist and an adjunct faculty member at New York University's Stern School of Business. Daniel wrote economic commentary for The Economist, The New York Times, and The International Herald Tribune before founding North Yard Economics, a non-profit consulting firm serving developing countries, in 2008. In between, he served as an economic advisor in the British government and wrote four books, most recently Outrageous Fortunes: The Twelve Surprising Trends That Will Reshape the Global Economy.
Daniel Altman: If you're looking for a way to be a middleman, consider any way in which you might be a bridge between cultures. Do you have experience working in another country? Did you learn a foreign language? Is your family made up of people who may be from other countries who gave you an insight into foreign cultures? These are the things that the global economy needs because it needs someone who is fluent in two cultures, who can talk to the company that is coming from one country and help them to integrate into another country. These are the niches that exist and they're all the different services that a company might need. It's not just lawyers and accountants and translators, but it's things as simple as people who can recruit workers in a new place or set up food services in a new place. There are tons of different occupations that you can have as a middleman or a middlewoman.
One of my favorite middlemen is a guy named Roy Lee. He's not a household name for most people, but most of you have probably been touched by him because Roy Lee was the guy who figured out that there were a lot of great movies being made in East Asia that would have a fantastic American audience but that it had never occurred to their East Asian producers to bring them to America, and it had never occurred to American production houses to bring in these films. Roy Lee was the guy who brought The Ring to America and now he has over 60 films to his credit. He found that he could buy the rights to one of these films fairly cheaply and then all he had to do was either find a distributor in the United States or find someone who wanted to remake it as an English language version. And he found both.
This has been one of the greatest plugs into the Hollywood movie industry that a middleman could achieve because it has created a whole new genre of films that did not exist before that's probably worth on the order of a billion dollars. So here is one middleman who found his niche. He got a percentage of all those profits, but he also created a lot more economic activity as a result.

Long-term effects of ecstacy
Ecstasy's long-term effects revealed. "Enough time has finally elapsed to start asking if ecstasy damages health in the long term. According to the biggest review ever undertaken, it causes slight memory difficulties and mild depression, but these rarely translate into problems in the real world. While smaller studies show that some individuals have bigger problems, including weakened immunity and larger memory deficits, so far, for most people, ecstasy seems to be nowhere near as harmful over time as you may have been led to believe."

"Civilization is Just a Thin Veneer. In the absence of law and order, men quickly revert to savagery.

The average American family has four days worth of food on hand. When that food is gone, we'll soon see the thin veneer stripped away." [more inside]

Almost Homeless
Ex-Director of Operations of Sababa Toys Paul Nawrocki lost his job after the parent company filed for bankruptcy.

Business blogger Barry Ritholtz blogged about Nawrocki, which led to a Businessweek interview describing his difficulty affording his wife's medical needs or even the cost of relocation.

Birding in Lake Placid
Springtime means bird time!
As the snow melts, many visitors stay away from Lake Placid and the Tri-Lakes Region, preferring to explore the area in the snow or during the height of summer. If birders follow this example they will miss the amazing time of year that is spring, which begins in the bird world in late winter. As the snow melts and the edges of lakes become ice free, local birders often notice the first signs of spring in their yards as song sparrows, red-winged blackbirds, and common grackles visit bird feeders. Meanwhile, American robins exploit any open patch of ground while eastern bluebirds may be seen along the edges of local fields.
Flock to the water
The other major change during the early spring occurs on Adirondack lakes, on which the ice is melted by sun and pushed apart by wind to create large openings that are soon used by a variety of waterfowl species. If interested in seeing waterfowl, birders should check out the Champlain Valley where thousands of ducks migrate along the north-south corridor of the lake each spring. They should also check out the website for the Champlain Region to learn more. After all, waterfowl aren't the only draw for birders to the lake valley, as they can also find a wide variety of migrating raptors there.
Some of these raptors will migrate through the Lake Placid area too, with a number of them staying to breed. This means early spring is marked by flyby sharp-shinned and cooper's hawks, and by the incessant trilling of merlins setting up their nests in white pines along Adirondack lakes. Owls too begin breeding, with great horned owls well along the nesting process (they begin nesting during the winter), and barred and northern saw-whet owls becoming more vocal in April as they set up territories and look for mates.
Flock to the forest
While birders will need to make a special effort to listen for hooting and tooting owls at night, they won't easily miss the singing of dark-eyed juncos, brown creepers, and white-throated sparrows during the day. These birds are soon joined by a growing diversity of other species, starting with eastern phoebe, yellow-bellied sapsucker, and ruby-crowned kinglet. Soon an array of sparrows moves into and through the region – including savannah, swamp, Lincoln's, vesper, chipping, and fox. As the calendar turns to May, white-crowned sparrows dominate the family representation in the area as the referee-striped sparrows descend upon the region for about a week at the beginning of the month.
This is the same time of year that ruby-throated hummingbirds begin to arrive – first the males and then the females. And while yellow-rumped warblers are already showing up in the neighborhood, the main surge of warblers is only just beginning. With 20 species of warblers nesting in the Lake Placid area and still more migrating through, there is a kaleidoscope of color and pattern for birders to see. These species include:
- yellow-rumped warbler
- yellow warbler
- Wilson's warbler
- Tennessee warbler
- pine warbler
- palm warbler
- ovenbird
- northern waterthrush
- northern parula
- Nashville warbler
- mourning warbler
- magnolia warbler

It is incredible to see such diversity!
Even though warblers steal much of the press, May also brings with it a slew of tanagers, grosbeaks, swallows, flycatchers, vireos, and thrushes. And so birders can search for black-billed cuckoos, yellow-bellied and olive-sided flycatchers, American bitterns, Philadelphia vireos, rose-breasted grosbeaks, and Swainson's and Bicknell's thrushes all in the Lake Placid and Tri-Lakes area. And no one coming here for migrants should forget that the resident boreal species like gray jay, boreal chickadee, and black-backed woodpecker inhabit some splendid bogs and boreal habitats nearby! Finally, as June begins, birders can also check out the Great Adirondack Birding Festival at the Paul Smith's College VIC, which takes folks on birding trips all over the region. It is a great way to celebrate spring as summer begins!
Plan your next migration to Lake Placid today!
Check out the High Peaks hiking trails and reserve a nest that suits your needs. Choose from a variety of Lake Placid hotels, motels, resorts, inns and B & B's and book a reservation today! Below you'll find a listing of great birding areas in the region.

Pregnant after tubal ligation
Started by lleber76 , Apr 12 2012 04:49 AM

Posted 12 April 2012 - 04:49 AM
I found out yesterday I'm pregnant! I kind of knew after I was late for my period this month, but then thought I was crazy! I did have a tubal ligation 10 1/2 years ago after my daughter was born. I had blood work done yesterday to confirm with the doctor and check my hormone levels. I'm now patiently waiting because I either have a etopic pregnancy or there is a chance it could be normal. My emotions are all over the once right now! My husband was is such shock! I just can't wait to know and move on from there! Anyone else go through the same thing???
Posted 12 April 2012 - 11:44 AM
I haven't been through this but I hope everything is alright with you and your baby. How are you feeling about the surprise pregnancy besides the shock?
I think asking in one of the other sections might give you a few more answers maybe in Pregnancy tips, questions and info.
Posted 12 April 2012 - 11:53 AM
Not personally, but a good friends Mother had a tubal litigation after her 3rd C-section. Post C-section she fell pregnant with her 4th child. The pregnancy was viable & she had a healthy baby girl at term.
Posted 12 April 2012 - 11:54 AM
My sister's SIL was born 8 or 9 years after her MIL's tubal ligation.... sometimes those ovum are just VERY determined!
Best of luck OP.
Posted 12 April 2012 - 12:01 PM
I know of someone who conceived after a tubal, she had 2 boys already and had a baby girl.
All was perfectly fine.
Her OB checked her tubes during her ceasar, he still couldn't believe how it happened lol
Posted 14 April 2012 - 04:19 PM
in the week between christmas and new years 2011 i was rushed into emergency surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy. they saved my right tube as the pregnancy had died and stopped growing, and just had to do keyhole surgery. its now mid April and i just today found out i am pregnant and i'm really scared that it's going to happen all over again cause the doctor said it's 15% more likely to happen again with a second pregnancy. im feeling little twinges next to my right hip bone but im also feeling them on the left and in the middle occasionally too where last time i think it was all on the right...i need to hear as many good stories as possible to keep my nerves from eating me alive! i want details of all the twinges you ladies felt if you dont mind sharing. im not going to go to the doctors until next weekend to get the ball rolling there cause i know im too early for a scan. last time our first scan cost us $170 and the lady found out nothing, it wasnt until a week after that i has been in an unbelievable pain that the hospital did a scan and found it
Posted 19 April 2012 - 10:16 AM
keeyannemchugh, my sister had an ectopic, lost her tube, and now has a 8 month old. Her early scan had showed she'd ovulated from that same side! No idea how that works, but apparently quite common. Goog luck
