Screeching Weasel have announced plans to celebrate their 25th Anniversary with a killer weekend in Chicago, IL! The festivities will kick off at Reggie's on Friday, May 27th with a slew of bands performing over the 3-day weekend. Ben Weasel gave a rundown of the event below, enjoy!
2011 marks Screeching Weasel's 25th anniversary. To celebrate, we're playing Reggie's in Chicago over Memorial Day weekend, and we're pulling out all the stops on this one, my friends. Screeching Weasel will be playing Friday, May 27th and Sunday the 29th (a different set each night), with the Riverdales playing our only North American show of the year on Saturday the 28th. Tickets will be on sale this Saturday, Dec. 18th at noon CST here. Right now we're only selling tickets at the package price for the whole weekend – single day tickets will go on sale January 1st. In the meantime, check out the line-up! We're still working on our 2011 show schedule, but I wanted to let you guys know about this one now because it's too good to wait.
FRIDAY MAY 27th
SATURDAY MAY 28th
SUNDAY MAY 29th
The shows are all 17+. I wish we didn't have to restrict it but with this many bands on the bill every night we're going to need to go later than the curfew would allow for an all ages show.
Vapid and I will be doing a DJ set one of the evenings in the lounge after the show, and people from some of the other bands will be doing them the other nights. See ya there!
Strung Out are beginning to assemble a retrospective album and need some help from their loyally inked fans. The music portion of the album is already in the works, and will include a number of surprises, both new and old. But in order to create a truly unique collection, the band is asking that all fans with Strung Out tattoos send the band high-quality photos of their tattoos along with their full name, city, state, and country of residence, to be included in a massive gallery in the album's packaging. Please e-mail all submissions to email@example.com The deadline is January 31, 2011.
We are thrilled to announce that Fat will be releasing the first new Screeching Weasel record in 11 years! It is titled First World Manifesto and will be out on March 15th. Check out what Ben Weasel had to say about the record and a few other things below.
We're almost done with vocals on the new Screeching Weasel album so it's as good a time as any to give you the lowdown.
I had a ton of songs lying around that I'd written in the past decade but never recorded. A heck of a lot of them were top-notch jingles that would've been perfect for a Screeching Weasel album, had Screeching Weasel actually existed at that point. We didn't, so they were relegated to the old tape pile and mostly forgotten. When Screeching Weasel got back together for the 11th time, I started polishing up those songs and writing a bunch of new ones. We did a quick demo last summer and sent it off to a couple labels but it was almost a foregone conclusion that if Fat wanted us back we'd be there with bells on. And so it came to pass: Fat Mike texted me the day after we sent the demos saying "Jolly good stuff, mate!" and we were off to the races. Joy to the world!
So we're back in the fold. But coming back after a ten year layoff? Believe me, sports fans, nobody knows better than me what it's like to try to hop back in the saddle after a, uh, "hiatus" and reclaim your former glory, so we've pulled out all the stops on this one. From pure pop-punk ditties like "Baby Talk" and "Frankengirl" to point-and-laugh-at-the-punk-rocker anthems like "Little Big Man" and "Follow Your Leaders," this is everything you could ask for from the band the humorless twats love to hate and the cultured, refined connoisseurs of quality rock and roll love to love.
The album is titled First World Manifesto and will feature 14 songs. Mike Kennerty is producing and Justin Perkins is engineering at his studio, Mystery Room, and at the Blasthouse here in Madison. The album will be out March 15th on Fat Wreck Chords.
Also being released on Fat starting in 2011 will be the Screeching Weasel, Riverdales and Ben Weasel back catalogs. I don't have a schedule yet for those reissues but I'll give you the heads up when I get it.
To celebrate our return to Fat we're releasing a limited edition, double LP version of Weaselmania. The Fat elves are only making 1,000 – 300 of those will be on yellow vinyl. It's available today so make haste, get the lead out and hop to it.
And as always we'll be spending an inordinate amount of time in airports in 2011 as we run around playing shows. People always ask if we're touring and I always say no because in my world, "touring" will always mean white-knuckling it down a mountain pass in a snowstorm in a rickety van full of holes, seated way too close to guys I started to hate about a day after hitting the road. So no, we're not doing that anymore. Never say never, but having said that: never. But we are going to keep doing fly-ins and playing any city that wants us. So if you want to see us play somewhere, even in some third world country like Ireland or Canada, make an offer, or have the blokes in charge do it. We've been having a blast playing shows again for the past year and a half and we're looking forward to more of the same in 2011 and beyond!

WORCESTER — A Worcester Superior Court judge has temporarily put the brakes on the proposed sale of The Boston Globe and the Telegram & Gazette to Red Sox owner John W. Henry.
Judge Shannon Frison issued a temporary restraining order that stalled the sale Friday. The order came as part of a 2009 class action lawsuit filed against the Telegram & Gazette by independent carriers of the newspaper.
Judge Frison issued the order at the request of attorneys representing the independent newspaper carriers, who are worried that the sale could prevent their clients from being able to collect a settlement.
"The defendant... is hereby enjoined and restrained from transferring ownership or interest in any of its assets... until further order of this court," Judge Frison wrote in her temporary restraining order. "The court retains the prerogative to inspect the financial documents of the defendant in order to resolve any disputes."
In her temporary restraining order, Judge Frison put the "maximum end" of a settlement in the case at $60 million. In essence, the entire sale price of The New England Media Group could be set aside in an escrow account until the case is completed. The case has been in litigation since 2009.
The New York Times Co. and Mr. Henry had scheduled to close their reported $70 million sale of The New England Media Group — which includes the Globe, the Telegram, boston.com, and telegram.com — to Mr. Henry on Friday, according to Judge Frison's restraining order.
On Monday, The New York Times asked that the judge's restraining order be lifted, and the sale be allowed to go through. In exchange, The New York Times would set aside a sum of money — to be determined by Judge Frison — that would be designated to pay a future settlement in the case.
But The New York Times is not willing to assume liability for this lawsuit just to allow the sale of The New England Media Group to go through, according to Mark W. Batten, the lawyer representing The New York Times Co.
"I don't think it was ever The New York Times' intent to write a blank check to fulfill this judgment," Mr. Batten said in court Monday.
Mr. Batten, representing The New York Times as well as the Globe and the Telegram, said the plaintiffs should have access only to the Telegram's assets, not to the New York Times', or the Globe's.
Abbe Serphos, a spokesman for The New York Times, said the judge's restraining order is the only thing blocking the sale. She also said that the fair market value of the Telegram & Gazette's assets will ultimately be determined by the court.
Judge Frison also issued subpoenas to The New York Times Co., Mr. Henry, The Boston Globe and the Telegram & Gazette, ordering them to turn over all documents relating to the sale of the newspapers.
Lawyers for the newspaper carriers asked that the order be held in place, and the subpoenas be honored, so they can determine how much money the Telegram & Gazette is worth.
"All of the proceeds of the sale should be put in escrow while the parties work this out," said the newspaper carriers' lawyer, James M. Galliher of Fitchburg.
In court Monday, Mr. Galliher also objected to The New York Times Co.'s proposal because he worried that "creative accounting" stemming from the sale could render the Telegram "basically worthless."
According to calculations done by Mr. Galliher, The New England Media Group earned $380.4 million last year. But the sale price of $70 million constituted just 18 percent of that total, he said. The Globe is a "distressed property" that is being sold far below its value, he said.
The Telegram, on the other hand, is not distressed, as it has earned a modest profit every year. But in the sale process, the Telegram, which had $42.1 million in revenue last year, could be considered a negligible part of the deal, he said.
"They could set the value of the Telegram at zero," Mr. Galliher said.
That could leave the newspaper carriers without "adequate security" if the lawsuit is successful, he said.
In the lawsuit, newspaper carriers from the Telegram claim that they should be treated as employees, not independent contractors. A Gardner District Court judge, and later the state Appeals Court, have previously ruled in the newspaper carriers' favor.
Judge Frison told the lawyers that she would issue a decision on her restraining order on Wednesday.

A report from Luke Howison on the Eastbourne Lions meeting for the Hutt South electorate.
Colin, Nik and I attended the Eastborne Lions Club candidates meeting last night in support of Phil Howison running for Hutt South.
There was a good turnout and Phil spoke well about some core issues including getting the government out of our lives, and on the issue of tax: "Tax is not an economic issue or a family issue. Its a moral issue. Tax is when the government takes money from you without your permission. Tax is - tax is theft! (looks around at other candidates) These people are advocating theft!" There was some great reaction, with enthusiastic applause.
The other candidates were the usual grey nothings.
Trevor Mallard was even more of a boring Labour git than usual, and the doddery Greens candidate going on and on and ON about the most boring topics imaginable (Arctic permafrost methane emissions anyone?) left everyone nodding off. Rosemarie Thomas (National) made a great point by holding up Labour pamphlets and handouts which were produced "with your tax money", and reminded us to pick up our free Labour pen - "You paid for them!"
Another highlight was the NZ First candidate (a nice guy, whats he doing with the slimeballs?) acknowledging the great job Phil is doing as the youngest candidate, which got Phil another round of applause!
In general I enjoy most of these meetings, especially when Labour candidates get defensive (which is all they are currently able to do), but it's also stifling having to listen to so much socialist bullshit. Thankfully there was no Alliance candidate there tonight! Another thing I like is how friendly the candidates are to each other. The Destiny NZ candidate especially is a
super-duper nice guy. Its funny though; as soon as these politicians get into power the charisma becomes slime ....
There are no more meetings for Hutt South, but we're all set to do a huge leaflet drop around Wellington tomorrow night, and put up the last of our signs which have been suffering muchos vandalism recently.
Hopefully thats a good sign that the message is getting out there and they're scared of us. :-)
For Freedom!

U.S. Ser. No. 593,545, filed July 7, 1975 entitled "Improvements In Reclaiming Waste Plastics" by Eugene P. Baldyga
This invention relates to reclaiming plastics and particularly to process improvements applicable to such reclamation.
As set forth, for example, in United States Bureau Of Mines Report of Investigations 7955, entitled "Recycling Of Plastics From Urban And Industrial Refuse", 1974, it is known to reclaim waste plastics for refabrication into similar or different products or for pyrolysis to recover monomers used in forming thermoplastic materials, or for incineration where the plastics serve as a high energy fuel source.
Rigid or semi-rigid (i.e. self-supporting) molecularly oriented thermoplastic articles such as sheet, containers in the form of trays, bottles, cups and the like, have been increasingly appearing in the marketplace and represent candidates for reclamation. Such orientation is employed to eliminate brittleness and to improve strength, thereby facilitating in this latter respect, a reduction in plastic without a corresponding loss in strength properties. Generally, such orientation involves stretching the thermoplastic material while within a pre-selected temperature range in plural (usually two) directions during fabrication in order to orderly align the molecules in the direction of stretch, followed by quenching while under stress to lock in the orientation. One category of molecularly oriented articles having major, though not exclusive, application in food and beverage packaging are containers formed of high barrier thermoplastic materials, i.e. those having respective oxygen and carbon dioxide permeabilities of less than 20 and 30 cc./day/100 sq. in./mil./atm. at 73� F., and it is especially desirable to recover such materials in view of the rather substantial cost to synthesize them.
In general, reclaiming usually involves grinding to reduce bulk, segregating the various types of materials from each other before or after such grinding, optionally followed by washing prior to either recycling for refabrication, or pyrolyzing for monomer recovery, or incinerating for energy recovery. However, it has been found that when molecularly oriented materials are ground with conventional size reduction equipment, the bulk of the particles assume a flake or platelet-like shape, wherein the particle thickness is generally significantly less than its width and breadth. In the portions of the article having substantial molecular orientation, the shear developed during grinding also tends to separate the material into layers, which layers, on being reduced in size, assume the form of such platelets. When the platelets are washed, or sorted in the reclaim process by sink-flotation gravity methods using solutions of different specific gravity, significant quantities of such liquids have been found to carry over with the platelet-shaped particles because of capillary action. Such carry-over can result in expensive losses and in substantial deliquifying and drying loads, the latter dictating an increase in size of various deliquifying components in the process train over that necessary for non-molecularly oriented materials. When the plastic being recovered is to be refabricated into new articles, as opposed to being pyrolyzed or incinerated, these platelets tend to create feeding problems to a screw masticating element in a melt processing step.
As set forth in the above-referenced commonly assigned application, the desireability of shrinking-back molecularly oriented articles to reduce bulk and assist in delabeling in a reclaim environment has been practiced in the prior art by the assignee of this application. However, if the oriented thermoplastic material is initially shrunk back to an unoriented state while in its fabricated condition, much fine material is generated thereafter in the grinding step because of the friable nature of the material, which fines can be difficult to process because of the minute dust-like consistency of the particles.
Now, however, further process improvements for overcoming the above-mentioned problems have been developed in reclaiming thermoplastic materials and particularly molecularly oriented materials.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of this invention to provide process improvements in reclaiming thermoplastic materials and particularly ground molecularly oriented materials.
Another object is to provide such improvements which minimize the carry over of liquid media with the particles during a washing or separating step.
An additional object is to provide process improvements in recycling thermoplastic materials intended for melt processing during refabrication into new articles.
A further object is to provide a convenient way to sterilize ground resin intended to be recycled, particularly for refabrication into containers requiring food grade quality resin.
Other objects will in part be obvious and will in part appear hereinafter from the following description and claims.
These and other objects are accomplished in a process for reclaiming thermoplastic materials which includes the step of reducing the material to particulate form by providing the improvement wherein the material is molecularly oriented and comprising, in combination, the step of heating the molecularly oriented particles sufficiently to relieve internal stresses whereby the surface area thereof is decreased.
As a feature, in a process for recycling thermoplastic containers which includes the step of grinding the containers and then washing and drying the ground material, there is provided the improvement comprising, in combination, the step, occurring before drying, of contacting the ground material with a caustic solution at a temperature of from about 130� to 200� F.
In describing the overall invention, reference will be made to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a partial, schematic flow diagram of a recycle process embodying steps of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a schematic view in enlarged form of one of the steps of FIG. 1;
FIGS. 3 and 4 are three-dimensional views of particles of thermoplastic material before and after the step of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIGS. 3 and 4 of ground, non-molecularly oriented thermoplastic material.
Referring now to the drawings, process steps are depicted in FIG. 1 for recycling thermoplastic material. Whole, semi-rigid containers made of thermoplastic material, such as bottles 10, or the product of a previous bottle shredding step comprising particles 12, each of which has molecular orientation, are fed to a conventional, commercially available grinder 14 equipped with a rotor 16 above a screen 18 through which the ground material 20 passes after being reduced in size sufficiently to be forced through the holes therein. The product stream from grinder 14, the majority of which is molecularly oriented, is substantially at ambient temperature and is in the form of platelets 22 (FIG. 3) of varying size but wherein the thickness 24 is substantially less than the width 26 and breadth 28 dimensions thereof. It should be realized that portions of the initial article 10, may not be molecularly oriented at all or else only slightly so in comparison with other areas. For example, orientation in the heel area at the confluence of the lower sidewall of bottle 10 with its base may be substantial, (for example on the order of 100 to 800 p.s.i. orientation release stress), whereas that extent in the neck area adjacent the opening at the opposite end, or in the center of the base, may be minimal. The product exiting grinder 14, therefore, need not be completely in the form of platelets 22, but rather may include a certain proportion of rigid, ground, non-oriented material such as particles 48 (FIG. 5). If containers 10 were initially provided with labels, a portion may still be attached to platelets 22 at the exit of grinder 14, either loosely as at 30 or relatively securely depending on the type of adhesive material initially used to secure the label material to the container.
The ground, preferably non-cellular, platelet-shaped material 22 is deposited via a suitable feeding mechanism such as a vibratory feeder 34 (FIG. 2), on surface 36 of moving, endless belt conveyor 32 in a relatively even layer or blanket 38 at the feed end on the right side in FIG. 2. Platelets 22 are advanced forwardly on moving surface 36 and pass beneath infrared heating panel 40 emitting downwardly directed radiant heat waves 42. Exposure to such waves increases the platelet temperature to that sufficient to release orientation stresses therein, whereby the platelet surface area is appreciably decreased thereby reducing the area available for wetting during exposure to liquid washing or sorting media, in a manner to be shortly described.
Orientation temperatures for thermoplastic materials are those at which the polymers on stretching exhibit strength. For crystalline polymers, the molecular orientation temperature (and therefore substantially the minimum temperature necessary to relieve the stresses in the step of FIG. 2) is generally in the range of about 1� to 50� F. below the crystalline melting point of the polymer, whereas for amorphous polymers such range is about 40�-240� F. below the homogeneous melting point thereof. The temperature to which platelets 22 are elevated may exceed the molecular orientation temperature range just noted, the time to achieve stress-relieving being accordingly reduced as temperature is increased, but such temperature should not be so high as to result in substantial fusion of adjacent particles to each other, since this will render the mix unsuitable for the subsequent steps in the process, or else require an additional regrinding step to again separate the particles.
Though a specific approach for increasing the temperature of the material to the required level is depicted in FIG. 2 and is preferred in view of simplicity, any alternative heating method and apparatus arrangement adequate to develop the required temperature level may be used.
The stress-relieved, shrunk-back particles issuing from beneath panel 40 are depicted at 44 in FIG. 4. As can be seen from a comparison with FIG. 2, the platelet shape has been altered and the particles appear considerably more reduced in surface area, irregular and coarser in form. Stress relieving during the heating step can sometimes result in complete removal of shreds of label material 46 from the plastic, and, in other cases, can result in substantial but not complete separation of material 46 therefrom. When not completely separated in the heating step, removal is relatively easily accomplished in a subsequent separating step, such as by air or liquid classifying. Alternatively, the label material can be removed from bottle 10 prior to the aforementioned grinding step.
The linear rate of advancement and the length of conveyor 32 are such as to retain the shrunk-back particles 44 thereon for a brief cooling period to reduce the temperature sufficiently to minimize fusion of adjacent particles to each other. Though some light "lacing" of the shrunk-back material can occur, this is readily and substantially eliminated as a result of friction and impacting of the material during subsequent bulk handling.
For comparison purposes, particles 48 of FIG. 5 are substantially larger than the shrunk-back material of FIG. 4 and represent non-molecularly oriented material from which fines have been removed, passed through the same screen in grinder 14 as platelets 22 in FIG. 3.
On issuing from the exit end of conveyor 32, particles 44 are collected in a suitable receptacle 50 and conveyed, for example via a suitable blower 52, to downstream components of the reclaim train, wherein the material will be exposed to one or more liquid separating or washing media. Such a washing or liquid sorting step occurs in floatation tank 54 wherein shrunk-back particles 44 from the heating step of FIG. 2 are fed via line 56 into the open upper end of such tank together with a suitable liquid separating medium continuously circulating through such tank via pump 58. Any liquid separating medium can be used and will vary with the characteristics of the plastic being recovered. For example, a 22 wt. % aqueous solution of sodium chloride has been successfully employed. The function of the tank and liquid medium is to separate heavy solid contaminants having a specific gravity greater than the resin, e.g. portions of container closures, dirt, glass, extraneous waste material and the like left in the container after various uses, through drain line 60, while lighter materials, preferably comprising the particles being recovered, and which have a specific gravity less than that of the separating medium, overflow tank 54 to screen 62 together with the medium. Screen 62 below tank 54 separates the heavy contaminants (stream 64) which are dumped to a suitable refuse area, from a portion of the liquid separating medium returned to a recirculating tank, not shown, feeding recirculating pump 58. Introduction of the plastic particles to tank 54 is preferably in a downward direction into a vortex created by agitation, in order to provide a downward velocity to the heavier particles to assist in separating while requiring the light fraction to reverse direction and float to the liquid surface. The shrunk-back, light, particles overflow by gravity with the separating medium stream 68 out a weir near the top of the tank to vibratory separating screen 66 through which the separating medium passes back to the recirculation tank. When recycle of the resin material for refabrication into other articles is not intended, the resin solids discharge from screen 66, either wholly or partially, may be directed to a suitable means, not shown, for pyrolizing or incinerating the resin directly. For that matter, the shrunk-back discharge from conveyor 32 could also be fed to such means after a rough, dry screening operation to remove gross contaminants.
If the resin product from screen 66 is to be refabricated into other articles such as containers, it is preferably fed to digester 68 wherein the previously ground particles are intimately contacted with a hot caustic solution at a temperature of from about 130� to 200� F. for a predetermined time period. This hot caustic wash, which may be used without the shrink-back step of FIG. 2, i.e. either with molecularly oriented or non-molecularly oriented materials, destroys mold growth and bacteria, which could result in a failure of the recycled material to meet Public Health standards, and dissolves metallic contaminants, such as aluminum caps and label foil, which might be carried over from the liquid sorting step with the polymer. Digester 68 consists of an inclined hollow cylindrical vessel 70 jacketed at 74 throughout the greater part of its length and equipped with a rotatable screw conveyor 72, the shaft of which is coaxial with the longitudinal axis of vessel 70. A suitable temperature-conditioning medium, for example hot water, is continuously circulated through jacket 74 to maintain the required temperature within vessel 70. The solid resin material enters inlet end 73, descends by gravity to the lower end of vessel 70, and is gradually conveyed upwardly by the flights of conveyor 72 whereupon it falls by gravity through exit end 76 to inclined vibrating screen 78. The hot caustic solution drains through screen or strainer 78 and flows at 79 by gravity to hold tank 82 from where it is continuously recirculated via pump 84 to digester inlet 73 for repeated passes. Coil 86 in tank 82 may also be conventionally associated with a suitable temperature-controlled medium to maintain the temperature of the solution in tank 82 at a preset level. The caustic solution used with digester 68, as well as the brine solution used with tank 54, are replaced and fortified as necessary to maintain the desired strength levels.
Solids issuing from screen 78 fall from the screen surface by gravity preferably into washing and neutralizing tank 80 having an agitator 83. The function of batch tank 80 is to neutralize the alkaline resin which has just been washed with caustic, via intimate mixing with water and optionally with a small charge of an acidic medium such as hydrochloric acid--i.e. stream 85. For example, it may be unnecessary to employ the latter if the resin is sufficiently washed with potable water in tank 80. After a predetermined time interval, when the ph of the tank contents has reached the desired level, which is preferably slightly on the basic side, the resin-liquid slurry is drained through line 85 to a suitable dewatering assembly such as centrifuge not shown but located at 87, where the major portion, e.g. over about 80%, of the water is removed from the resin. The dewatered material is then fed to a dryer, depicted schematically in FIG. 1 at 88, which may be of conventional design, for example a rotating cylindrical chamber equipped with steam-heated coils wherein additional water is evaporated to dry the resin to the level required for subsequent refabrication. Ground, sterilized, recycled, shrunk-back particles in the form depicted on the left side in FIG. 4, and devoid of any attached extraneous contaminants, may be fed from hopper 94 through nozzle 96 to extruder 92 for conventional conversion to melt form via rotating screw 90, as the initial phase in refabricating other articles therefrom. Any microbes which could contribute color or specks to the extrudate or generate odor and/or gas in storage are eliminated by the aforementioned hot caustic exposure of the resin. Because of the substantial, irregular, non-platelet shape of the particles, the material feeds well to extruder 92 and results in a significant increase in throughput over that attainable with the platelet shapes of FIG. 3 under equivalent extrusion operating conditions. Combining certain proportions of recycled and virgin resin upstream of extruder 92 to provide a mixed feed is contemplated, as desired.
Any thermoplastic material, e.g. layered or single thickness, cellular or non-cellular, may be used with the stress-relieving heating step of the present invention if it has been molecularly oriented to the extent that a reduction in surface area of at least about 5% occurs on heating, for example to about the glass transition temperature range of the material. Materials particularly suitable are high barrier polymers, as previously defined, such as those wherein a major proportion (at least 55 wt.%) is formed of a polymerized nitrile-group-containing monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile and mixtures thereof. A particularly preferred such nitrile group-containing-monomer is acrylonitrile. Other high barrier materials particularly valuable for recovery include those based on polyethylene terephthalates wherein the polymer contains repeating ethylene terephthalate units of the formula: ##STR1##
Alternatively useful thermoplastic materials include polymers and copolymers based on vinyl chloride, olefins such as ethylene and propylene, styrene and the like. Any comonomer compatible with those collectively mentioned above may be used.
A molecularly oriented bottle formed of a thermoplastic material comprising a 70/30 weight percent polymerized acrylonitrile/styrene copolymer was shredded in a first size-reducing step and then passed through a grinder of the type illustrated in FIG. 1, using a screen with 1/4" openings, to produce platelet-shaped particles generally as appearing at 22 in FIG. 3. A layer of such particles about 1/2" thick was subjected to a temperature of 230� F. in an oven for five minutes. The original particle size was roughly 3/16" by 1/4" square varying in thickness from about 0.005" to 0.050" When removed from the oven, the shrunk-back layer had reduced in thickness to about 5/16" to 3/8" and the particles appeared to be granular and more uniform having face dimensions ranging between about 1/16" to 1/8"
Two Ehrlemeyer flasks were weighed and 50 gms of the shrunk-back particles (44 in FIG. 4) added to one while 50 gms of the platelet material (22 in FIG. 3) were added to the other; 200 gms of water were added to each of the weighed samples which were then shaken well to wet all the particles. The platelet sample was basically observed to be a mush whereas a free volume of water was observed in the shrunk-back sample. A Buchner funnel and aspirator were set up with a wetted filter paper in place therein. The funnel and wet filter paper were weighed and then each individual sample was added to the funnel from the flasks which were washed out well with distilled water to remove all polymer particles. The aspirator was allowed to function with each sample for about 15-20 sec. after all the water was down. The funnel and sample were then weighed and the weight of water retained with the particles in each case calculated as follows:
______________________________________Funnel + paper + shrunk-back sample = 374 gms.Funnel + paper = 312 gms.Wet wt. of polymer 62 gms.Dry sample wt. 50 gms.Wt. retained water 12 gms. ##STR2##Funnel + paper + platelet sample = 404 gms.Funnel + paper = 313 gms.Wet wt. of polymer 91 gms.Dry sample wt. 50 gms.Wt. retained water 41 gms. ##STR3##______________________________________
the above shows the difference in wetting or moisture retention considered to be due to the shape effect of the particles-- i.e. the capillary effect between the platelets vs. the reduced retention by the coarser denser, more spherical, stress-relieved particles.
To illustrate the shape factor of platelets vs. shrunk-back particles as it relates to wetting surface, the following calculations were made: Assumptions: A realistic shape of platelet particles is 1/4" � 1/4" � 0.050"; that for shrunk-back particles is essentially spherical. Thus platelet shape, volume and area are
V= 0.25� 0.25� 0.050= 0.003125 in.3
A= 2(0.25� 0.25)+ 4(0.25� 0.05)= 0.125+ 0.05= 0.175 in..sup. 2
Ratio A:V= 56:1
For a spherical particle shape of the same volume:
V= 0.003125 in.3 = πd3 /6 ##EQU1##
A= π d2 = π(0.18076) = 0.10263 in.2
Ratio A:V = 33:1
Area of the sphere is only 59% of the area of the platelet or, stated otherwise, has 41% less area than a platelet.
To compare the bulk density of platelet vs. shrunk-back material, a pint plastic jar weighing 49 gms was in three cases filled to overflow and the following measurements made.
______________________________________jar + platelet material 226 gms.jar only 49 gms.wt. platelet material 177 gms.jar + shrunk-back material 257 gms.jar only 49 gms.wt. of shrunk-back material 208 gms.Jar + water 585 gms.jar only 49 gms.wt. water 536 gms.______________________________________
Bulk density of platelet material: 177/536� 62.43= 20.6 pound/ft3
Bulk density of shrunk-back material: 208/536� 62.43= 24.2 pound/ft3
Thus shrunk-back material has a higher bulk density than platelet material by 17.5%.
Platelet material and shrunk-back material of the composition used in Example I was extruded through a conventional extruder employing a 11/4" screw, a barrel temperature of 420�-460� F. and a die designed to produce a solid strand of about 1/8" diameter. Conventional ground, non-molecularly oriented material was used as a control. The screw was operated at 40 rpm and the temperature of the material at the feed end of the extruder was 132� F. The following results were obtained:
______________________________________ Rate (gmsSample extrudate Stock Temp. Extruder HeadDescription per min.) (� F.) Pressure(p.s.i.)______________________________________Control-(ground-non-orientedparticles - 100%) 138 470 1260-1440Platelets - 100% 112 472 1200-1260Shrunk-backmaterial - 100% 133 470 1320-1440______________________________________
From the above data it is evident that extrudability of the shrunk-back particles essentially approached that of the control sample (i.e. within about 4%) and was some 16% greater than that of the non-stress-relieved platelet material.
To determine the effectiveness from the standpoint of elimination of bacteria and mold growth, two samples of two hundred grams each of the stress-relieved material from Example I was treated in one case with a sterile culture medium, trypticase soy broth (TSB), and in another case with the same medium innoculated with bacteria (B. subtilis). Aliquots of each were tested immediately for bacterial count (colonies/gr.) as well as after treatment under certain conditions listed below.
Following is a tabulation of bacteriological findings.
______________________________________ Bacterial Colonies/gr of resin______________________________________Sterile TSB 11048 hr.

Based on the above results the effectiveness of the brine and caustic wash was established at 10 min. at 150� F. or a shorter time at higher temperature to be adequate to insure a sufficiently clean food-container grade material to meet necessary Public Health standards.
The above description and particularly the drawings are set forth for purposes of illustration only and are not to be taken in a limited sense. Various modifications and alterations will be readily suggested to persons skilled in the art. It is intended therefore, that the foregoing be considered as exemplary only and that the scope of the invention be ascertained from the following claims.

Falcons clinch as Panthers fall in Fox finale
Atlanta earns home-field advantage for playoffs
Published: Sunday, January 2, 2011 at 3:50 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 2, 2011 at 3:50 p.m.
ATLANTA — Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons put a decisive stamp on the NFC South title and home-field advantage in the playoffs by beating Carolina 31-10 on Sunday in John Fox's last game as Panthers coach.
The Falcons (13-3) earned their first division title since 2004, home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs and a bye next weekend. The time off for Ryan and other starters came early, as backups took over in the fourth quarter.
Carolina (2-14) had a weak finish to an awful season under Fox as the league's worst offense was held without a touchdown until the final minute.
The Panthers on Friday formally announced Fox and his staff will not return in 2011.
Ryan passed for 236 yards with touchdowns to Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White, and Eric Weems scored on a 55-yard punt return.

Is there a way to edit the built-in check out form. I would like to remove Address #2 and I need to change Full Name to Child's Name.
Hi @slabadie,
Thank you for your question.
Are you talking about shipping form?
Could you please share me page link or the screenshot of it if you can?
You can share me a screenshot of it by uploading the screenshot on any image sharing website like http://imgur.com/ and sharing its unique URL here.
Kind Regards,
Vinod Dalvi
Hi @slabadie,
Thanks for providing that. The easiest way to hide that shipping address is through custom CSS like so:
table.mp_cart_shipping tr:nth-child(5) {
display: none;
You can add that to your theme's style.css file or more easily using a plugin like this:
To change the 'Full Name' text, you'll need to use a custom translation file where you can translate just that portion of text, possibly easier using a plugin:
Or you can use a plugin like this:
You could also make changes to the plugin file directly at:
Line 4023 of wordpress-ecommerce\marketpress.php
However, that's not at all advised since updates would delete such changes. But I just wanted to mention it for reference and as a last possible option.
Hope that helps, please feel free to ask if you have questions! :)
David, thank you for letting me know about the real-time-find-and-replace/ plugin. This is awesome!
Hi @slabadie,
You're most welcome! Though I'd like to mention too, that plugin does require some extra resources from your server. The translation method I mentioned is generally considered the optimal approach.
If that plugin works fine for you though, that's great. Just let us know if you have questions questions. We're happy to help! :)

YOUNGSTOWN — The Mahoning Valley had a record low temperature today.
It was only 30 degrees at 5:24 a.m. today, the lowest temperature on record for the area for a May 18, according to the National Weather Service.
The old record cold for May 18 was 33 degrees in 1983.
The NWS has kept temperature records for the Valley dating from 1897.
The Valley didn't miss the record low for May 17 on Sunday by much.
At 10:24 p.m., the temperature dropped to 34 degrees.
The record low for May 17 was 31 degrees in 1956.
The area will warm up soon with highs around 80 degrees Wednesday.
There's a 30 percent chance of rain this Memorial Day weekend.
For the complete story, read Tuesday's Vindicator or Vindy.com
Global Warming.
Yep, one day debunks the whole concept valleyred... (I'm not saying it does or doesn't exist, but I need more than May 18, 2009 to decide it!)
Where were all the "global warming" people when the temps were in the mid 80's this April?
But doesn't global warming mean it should be hotter than usual all year round?

Archives for Local History
Are you just starting to research the history of an area?
Do you want to investigate more local history sources?
Starting points for local history research
Before you visit the archives
If you're just starting to research the history of a local area, it's often helpful to do some background reading in published sources first, and to find out if anything has already been written and published about the particular area in which you are interested. A library is the best place to find local history books and publications, although archives often hold small reference collections which include some local history material. Very useful information on libraries can be found at www.library.wales.org.
And on to your research in the archives.....
Try starting with these useful sources, held in many archives:
1. Maps
Maps can convey a very clear and immediate picture of the changes that have taken place in an area over time.
Archives also usually hold other maps of different types for various dates. There are likely to be more, and earlier, maps for urban areas than for rural areas.
2. Directories
Trade and street directories can provide a means of getting a quick overview of an area and its history. Published mainly from the mid nineteenth to the mid twentieth centuries, there are several different sorts of directories - some, for large towns, give very detailed street by street information, while others give more limited information. They were produced for the use of inhabitants and visitors - rather like a modern 'Yellow Pages'. Most give general information the towns and villages in the area they cover, and list the tradesmen and principal inhabitants. This page, from a directory for Wales 1859, shows the information given for the village of Llanfair, Montgomeryshire.
3. Census
The first census was carried out in 1801, and they have been held every ten years since then, with the exception of 1941. After each census, volumes of statistics were produced, recording the numbers of people living in each local area and giving detailed information on the population such as number and size of households, age distribution, employment, and migration patterns. The figures can provide very useful background information for local historians. The volumes of statistics for all the census years are available in the National Library of Wales; a limited number of volumes for some years may be found in local archives.
In addition to the volumes of statistics, the census returns - the original books filled in by the census enumerators - also provide a very valuable source for local historians. Available for all of Great Britain from 1841 to 1901, the returns give the names of all members of every household in each area, giving details on their ages, occupations and birthplaces. The returns are a vital resource for family historians, of course, but are also of great interest to local historians, who can discover patterns of occupations, migration and family relationships within a small area. They are available on microfiche for all of Wales at the National Library of Wales, and for their own areas at many local authority archives. The returns can also be found on various subscription websites; most archives in Wales offer free access to the census returns online through the library edition of the website Ancestry. The 1911 census will become available online area by area during 2009, but cannot be accessed through the Ancestry website; find more information here.
Going Further
1. Finding relevant records - some tips
Archives hold a huge amount of fascinating material which is potentially of interest to local historians - so what is the best way to locate the records that are relevant to your particular research?
Start by making full use of all available catalogues and indexes, both online and in the archive repositories themselves. Some catalogues and indexes are very comprehensive and detailed, listing all the individual items in an archive. Some may cover only a proportion of the material held in an archive, while others may provide a catalogue which gives information only at the 'top level' - it will describe the archive or collection as a whole, but will not give information on the individual series or items within it. The catalogue on this website is such a catalogue - it contains descriptions only at collection or whole archive level.
With detailed electronic catalogues and comprehensive card indexes, you will be able to look for very precise search terms - perhaps the name of a very small area which you are researching. With less detailed electronic catalogues or partial card indexes, searches for very precise terms may not be successful - but this does not mean that no relevant records are held, just that they are not recorded on the catalogue or not indexed. You may have to think 'around' your subject - use wider search terms, or think what organisation or individual may have created relevant records and then look at the detailed catalogues of the records of these organisations or individuals, usually available in paper format in the archive searchroom.
To help you to do this, it's useful to find out, for the area which you are researching:
- the local government area (for example county, district, poor law union, highway board) in which it lay at different dates
- the parish or parishes in which it lay or of which it formed part
- if it was part of a landed estate
- who were the principal landowners and /or industrialists
This will help you to locate material - for example, there may be records relating to roads in the archive of the county council and, earlier, of the highways board; documents concerning a local charity among the parish records; title deeds to the land in the area among the records of a landed estate; or material relating to a local industry in a business archive.
If you don't know where to start, or encounter difficulties in using the catalogues or indexes, never hesitate to ask for help. Archive staff have a detailed knowledge of the records the archive holds, and will be happy to advise you.
2. Some examples of archives for local history
Almost anything in an archive repository is potentially of some use to a local historian. Here are a just a very few examples.
Quarter Sessions Records
The courts of quarter sessions, held four times a year in each county, had two functions: they dealt with the administration of the county, and dispensed justice in all but the most serious cases.
This is part of a document known as a 'presentment', in which cases were laid before the justices of the peace by the jurors. This particular presentment was dealt with at Caernarfonshire quarter sessions in August 1652; this section draws the attention of the justices to the fact that the draw bridge in the town of Caernarfon is in decay, and that some of them (the jurors) had 'taken a view' of a pit or hole between Croes Beblig and Pont y Saint 'and doe find it in full repayre and lately well rectified'. The original document is in the Caernarfon Record Office.
Records of landed estates
The records of landed estates are invaluable to local historians. They may include title deeds, rentals (lists of rents due), records of building and renovations, accounts, diaries and much more. This is part of a rental for the Margam estate, showing the names of tenants and the amounts to be paid. It is held by the West Glamorgan Archive Service.
Records of local industries
Records of local industries can help to build up a picture of the development of the area. This is part of a page from a journal of Ebbw Vale Iron Company, 1796. The original is held by the Gwent Record Office.
Diaries and accounts of journeys
Diaries and accounts of journeys can reveal interesting information. A diary of a tour through south Wales undertaken by Thomas Martyn of London in 1801 provides a fascinating view of the Welsh countryside and inhabitants as seen through the eyes of an early tourist. In this entry, Martyn tells of a walk from Aberystwyth to Llanbadarn. (Original held by the National Library of Wales)
3. Local records elsewhere
Some of the records relating a particular area may not be held in the most obvious local archive, or may be held in an archive outside Wales. Estate records, in particular, may be held elsewhere - landed families often held property, brought into the family by marriage or inheritance, in several parts of England and Wales. Usually, the archive of the family, including records relating to property in a number of different areas, will be held together in one place. Similarly, a local business may be taken over by a larger business, from outside the local area, and the records for both may ultimately be deposited in the archive which is 'local' to this enterprise. Using all the available online catalogues can help you locate such records (see a list here).
Records useful to local historians can also be found at the National Archives, which holds records relating to the government and central administration of both England and Wales.

Attractions does not have to be ancient to be worth looking at. They could also be modern facilities that have become landmarks in their own ways since they were erected. There might be many landmarks in Albi that are quite ancient and historic, but the town also has its share of modern structures. One of this is the Media Center, which could be considered to also go down in history as among the future monuments of the town.
Located on the southern part of the town center, this vast 21st century Media Center is one of today's hubs of the social life in Albi. It is a fascinating structure done in the modern style of architecture that is bound to make it one of the great present-day landmarks in Albi. Within the building, almost all the research and technological facilities that you could hope for can be found. There are a number of computers here that have been linked to high-speed networks that will just about allow anyone to communicate with the rest of the people across the globe.

Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 15 mins
I found the basic recipe in a cookbook by Better Homes and Gardens "Fast Fix Family Foods". But as with alot of recipes from cookbooks, I "tweak" them according to mine and SO's own personal tastes.This recipe uses foods that aren't made " from scratch" so if you want to use freshly prepared, the cooking time will be increased. Submitted to "ZAAR" on October 8th, 2008.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 frozen breaded chicken fillets
- 1⁄4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup leftover seasoned mashed potatoes
- 1 (1 ounce) package turkey gravy mix (original recipe called for chicken)
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1⁄8 teaspoon ground sage
- 1⁄8 teaspoon ground black pepper (to taste)
- In a small saucepan, over low to medium low heat,combine gravy mix, sage,pepper, and buttermilk.
- Stirring until no lumps remain, and desired thickness is reached, turn heat to low ,keeping gravy warm.
- Over medium heat in a medium sized skillet heat oil till hot but not smoking.
- Add frozen patties, and cook on both sides until golden brown, and remove from skillet.
- Top each pattie with 1/2 cup of reheated mashed potatoes.
- Cover potatoes with desired amount of gravy, and enjoy :).

Thanks Dave. That's mainly what I needed to know, and I can try applying it to the <ul> tag as well. Best, David.
PS - meant to add, this would be so I don't have to apply a style to each list item <li> within the division.
I know I can use the "style" declaration within the <div> tag. However, I'm wondering if I can further refine or limit it so that this style would only applies to certain tags, such as <li>, but not...

Lets say I have a Page resource, and a particular instance has id = 5 and permalink = foobar.
resources :pages I can use
<%= link_to @page.title, @page %> which outputs the url "/pages/5".
How would I make it output "/pages/foobar" instead? Likewise with the edit url... How do I make
edit_page_path(@page) output "/pages/foobar/edit"?
Answers so far have said to override
to_param in Page.rb which is a great start. +1 to each. But what if I want
<%=link_to @page.title, @page%> to output "/:permalink" rather than "/pages/:permalink"?? I'll accept the answer that comes up with that.

Tension, Emotion Run High at Mine-Safety Meeting
Hearings on the Sago Mine accident that killed 12 people begin in Buckhannon, W.Va. Family members of the dead miners gave statements about their lives and the loved ones they lost in the mine, urging mine officials to share information and improve safety practices.
Photos of the victims lined the wall behind the main podium at the emotional hearing, which was held on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan College.
Company officials presented their take on the accident, as well. The owner of the West Virginia mine, which has blamed the accident on a lightning strike, said the full details may never be known.
Also testifying were officials from West Virginia's Office of Miners' Health Safety and the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration. Miner Randal McCloy Jr. — who was rescued after 41 hours underground — did not participate in the hearing, which will continue Wednesday.
Michele Norris talks with Emily Corio of West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

A toxicology examination detected no amounts of cocaine,
marijuana, hallucinogenic drugs or prescription medications,
the Los Angeles County Coroner's office said in a report.
Lewis, 28, was found dead in the driveway of a home he had
been renting in Los Angeles and his 81-year-old landlady was
found dead inside.
Investigators initially suspected Lewis was under the
influence of drugs or alcohol because he had spent time in
rehab and had a criminal drug past. The actor had been
released from jail five days prior to his death.
Authorities ruled Lewis' death an accident from partial
strangulation and head trauma after the actor fell 5m from an
elevated terrace onto a paved driveway.
"We do not have definitive evidence that (Lewis) intended to
kill himself," Los Angeles County medical examiner James K.
Ribe wrote in the autopsy report. "We also do not at this
time have any evidence that he was pushed."
Detectives believe Lewis may have killed his landlady,
Catherine Davis, but said the motive was unknown.
Lewis had pleaded guilty in August to assault with a deadly
weapon. He also pleaded no contest to an attempted burglary
in a separate case. He was sentenced to jail in both cases.
Lewis played Kip "Half Sack" Epps, an Iraq War veteran, in
the first two seasons of FX television drama "Sons of
Anarchy" about an outlaw motorcycle club. The Los
Angeles-born actor previously had recurring roles in the TV
shows "Boston Public" and "The O.C."

Looks like my vim undofiles only track the last 500KB or so of changes. At the bottom of my gundo panel it goes from edit revision 1774 to 0 (the total number of revisions to the file is 2776). While this indicates the entire history may exceed 1MB, that is very acceptable since this is several days' worth of work (which, still not being complete, couldn't be inserted into the revision control system per my company's code check-in policies).
Is there a way to make it keep more history in vim's undotree? Not that it'll be particularly easy or fun to wade through it all, but not having it throw it away would be nice.

Sometimes the mash-ups that nobody asked for are often the most beloved, which could be precisely the case for College Humor's latest power blend of Downton Abbey and, as a natural complement, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Check out the whole video below.
Unfortunately, they didn't get Will Smith to cameo in the music video, which blends the somber Downton theme song with the decidedly upbeat rap theme from Fresh Prince (which everyone, everywhere knows the lyrics to, as anyone who has been to a '90s throwback-themed party can attest). Nevertheless, the mash-up puts a major Masterpiece Classic spin on the original TV theme's lyrics, and the result is all kinds of hilarious. Consider the opening verse below:
Now this is a story all about how
My life got flipped turned upstairs down
So if you'll come round for tea and just sit right there
I'll tell you all about how I became Lord Grantham's heir.

Our SVN repository is quite large, and pulling the whole thing takes some time. When checking out at home, I was pleased to discover the sparse checkout feature; I checked out the whole repository to a depth of 1, then pulled each top-level directory (directly under the trunk) that I needed to a depth of infinity. Until now this has been brilliant.
Recently I added a new directory under trunk. When I do a
svn up, I get nothing. The TLD I added will not sync.
I normally use Tortoise SVN, so I tried doing this from command line. I tried explicitly specifying the name of the directory, adding
--depth infinity, adding
--force. None of these tricks has worked. What am I missing?
