The present invention relates to solid subliming coolers and, more particularly, to a solid subliming cooler having a new radiatively-cooled vent line. Such coolers may be used, for example, in cryogenic coolant systems for space vehicles and/or other space borne apparatus.
The vent line arrangement according to the invention radiates parasitic heat losses otherwise conducted through the vent line to the cryogen coolant and, by so doing, it permits the practical and thermally efficient use of cryogens (e.g. such as methane) at very low working temperatures which require corresponding extremely low operating vapor pressures. Such use of high heat capacity coolants at lower than usual operating temperatures results in substantial reductions in the required mass of cryogen for a given cooling mission and in overall cooler size and weight as compared to conventional cooling devices.
Although it is known that the vapor produced from solid subliming cryogens (coolants) must be vented through plumbing to maintain a desired system temperature (i.e. to maintain a desired operating point on a cryogen temperature versus vapor pressure curve), certain coolants have not heretofore often been considered acceptable in such systems because of the high heat input associated with conventional venting arrangements.
For example, a comparison of the required mass and volume of cryogens necessary in a typical application might lead one initially to believe that methane would be a preferred choice for an efficient and practical cooling medium. However, if methane is used to maintain low working temperatures (e.g. below 50K), it becomes necessary to maintain an extremely low vapor pressure (generally in the range of 10-3 Torr and below). This, in turn, requires that the vent tube connected to the cryogen container for venting the vapor evolved during the sublimation process as the latent heat of sublimation is absorbed must be very large in diameter. A large diameter vent tube in a typical prior art arrangement necessarily implies corresponding large parasitic heat conduction back into the cryogenic container through the walls of the vent tube itself. In the case of methane, once the parasitic heat loss problem is fully accounted for, the methane usually cannot be used efficiently because an excessive amount must be consumed simply to satisfy the conductive parasitic heat leak through the vent tube.
In this regard, depicted below in Table 1 is a listing of the theoretical required weight and storage volume of four solid coolants for a five-year cooling load of 150 milliwatts at 50K (without yet taking into account parasitic heat losses). All such materials are candidates because the evolved vapor can be readily vented through plumbing while maintaining the desired temperature (i.e. the desired operating point on the temperature versus vapor pressure curves).

The vapor pressure of the coolant must, of course, be sufficiently high to allow venting at the desired temperature through a reasonably-sized vent pipe. If the required vapor pressure is too low, the vent pipe must be so large in diameter that the conductive parasitic heat leak through the vent pipe itself becomes unacceptably high, and the total weight of the coolant needed to offset the leak as well as to cool the desired load may make the system impractical. Thus, in a conventional "tube type" vent system, the fifth entry in Table 1 (methane) would typically be eliminated as a practical coolant. That is, the vapor pressure of methane at 50K is only about 2�10-3 Torr, thereby requiring an unacceptably large vent pipe. If methane could otherwise be used, it would result in the lightest total system because the cryogen tank volume would be relatively small and the empty tank mass would be lower than for a system utilizing hydrogen.
A methane system would be superior to hydrogen in another important practical aspect. Hydrogen must be stored at a temperature far below the desired cooling temperature, (less than 14K) to maintain it in solid form for zero gravity coolant retention. A system utilizing the 56 pound hydrogen mass shown in Table 1 must take full advantage of the heat capacity of the gas between its subliming temperature of 10K and the load temperature of 50K. The temperature rise contributes almost 50% of the available cooling capacity but it is not entirely useable. Thus, in order to ensure that the proper load temperature is achieved, a "feedback" control loop and an active heater must be employed. This practical requirement reduces reliability and necessarily makes the above-noted 56 pound hydrogen mass only a minimum value. The prescribed mass could, in fact, nearly double depending on the variability of the thermal loads on the cooler.
Systems which do not rely on the cooling capacity available in the vented gas itself to cool the load are more inherently stable because of the stable relationship between cryogen temperature and subliming vapor pressure for a given heat load. With respect to methane, for example, only a 5K increase in the operating temperature from 50K increases the pressure to 1.5�10-2 Torr. In such a vapor pressure "pegged" type of system, the heat load must therefore change drastically in order to cause a significant change in the operating temperature.
The present invention provides method and apparatus for lowering the useful operating temperature ranges of solid subliming coolers by utilizing cryogens in temperature ranges that heretofore were inaccessible or which presented impractical physical limitations on the cooling system. This object is achieved by using a radiatively-cooled vent arrangement which tends to radiate parasitic heat losses to space rather than permit them to be conducted through the walls of the vent line pipe itself into the cooler. This allows the use of cryogen coolants having significantly reduced overall mass and volume requirements.
It has now been discovered that the foregoing objectives may be accomplished, for example, by providing a horn-like, flared vent line structure (sometimes herein referred to as a "Flugelhorn") in a cooler arrangement which, in effect, combines features of a radiative cooler and a conventional solid subliming cryogen cooler. Such a radiatively-cooled vent structure allows a high heat capacity coolant (such as methane) to be used at subnormal operating temperatures, and results in a reduction in the overall size and weight of the cooler relative to conventional systems.
More particularly, it has been found that methane and similar cryogens may be used in applications requiring very low vapor pressures by forming the vent line into variously shaped radiating structures (referred to herein as a "horn") whereby an aperture in the radiator is connected to a vent aperture in the solid cryogen container. The other end of the radiator aperture is vented and radiatively directed to outer (black) space. Thus, as a practical matter, the diameter of the radiator aperture connected to the solid cryogen container can be maximized (i.e. sized as required to maintain the desired vapor pressure) since, for gaseous flow purposes, it acts essentially as an aperture in the container wall rather than as a long tube having substantial vapor flow resistance. At the same time, the outer surface of the horn (the "inside" vent tube surface which is now flared and directed outwardly to space) is capable of radiating parasitic heat losses being conducted therealong that would otherwise be conducted along the vent tube walls to the cryogen container itself. In effect, the vent line according to the invention performs the same vapor venting function as would a large diameter vent line in a conventional solid subliming coolant system, but the thermal penalty otherwise resulting from the conduction of parasitic heat losses back to the cryogen cooler through the required large diameter vent line plumbing is substantially reduced.
Because of the radiation to space of what would otherwise be parasitic heat leaks by conduction to the cryogen and the maximization of the diameter of the vent pipe at its point of connection to the cryogen container, low vapor pressure cryogens such as methane at low temperatures having inherently desirable low mass/volume characteristics are for the first time practical choices for many applications of this type of cooling system (e.g. a solid sublimation system where the working temperature is established by controlling the operating vapor pressure of the coolant material). Also, by using more suitable cryogens, it is possible to accomplish missions with significant mass reductions. Prior practice limits the equilibrium pressure of solid subliming coolers to approximately 1 Torr. This invention extends the lower end of the pressure range to roughly 10-4 Torr and extends the temperature range by a corresponding amount. This extension of temperature range frequently allows the use of a more mass efficient cryogen to meet the mission needs.
These as well as other objects and advantages of this invention will be more completely appreciated by studying the following detailed description of the presently preferred exemplary embodiment of the invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, of which:
FIG. 1 schematically depicts a cross-sectional view of the exemplary embodiment; and
FIGS. 2-6 schematically depict other exemplary horn shapes for alternative use in the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 1.
In the drawing of FIG. 1, a radiatively-cooled vent line in accordance with the present invention is shown generally at 10. A vent line arrangement for a 50K system (based on the amount of coolant required to absorb 150 milliwatts at 50K for 5 years) has been selected for illustration purposes only. A radiatively cooled vent line member (Flugelhorn) 11 may have a horn-like configuration with outwardly-flaring edges and as FIG. 1 makes clear, the Flugelhorn may consist of an integral (one-piece) circularly symmetric construction having concentric openings at both ends. The smaller or bottom portion of the horn is attached (e.g. vacuum tight epoxy seal 9) to cooling tank 12 (containing the cryogen) at vapor vent opening 13, which has the required large diameter (typically several inches) depicted as D1. Vapor vent opening 13 thus permits a very low pressure high flow of vapor which is more typical of a mere aperture at 13 rather than the usual elongated tube vent line.
Also near the small end of Flugelhorn 11 may optionally be a thermal connection to a toroidal secondary cooler stage 30 of methane or other cryogen operating at about 75K (e.g. having a vapor pressure, for methane, of approximately 6 Torr vented conventionally through relatively small tubing 8) may be provided in thermal contact with the "inside" surfaces of the Flugelhorn via a thermally conducting ring 32. Alternatively, this secondary cooling stage may be provided by an auxiliary radiator external to the cooler. The temperature gradient through this portion of the horn is thus maintained so small that the parasitic heat leak (depicted as Qc1 on FIG. 1) is not a serious penalty on a 50K system. The location of the point of thermal contact with ring conductor 32 is chosen to minimize total coolant requirements in accordance with standard thermal analysis techniques. (Typically, it may be located about one-fourth to one-third of the way towards the higher temperature shell 21.) For many applications the secondary cooler 30 may not even be necessary nor desirable. In that event, the residual of parasitic heat flow Qc2 is dumped directly into the primary cooler 12 rather than secondary cooler 30.
On the warm side of the 75K thermal connection (if the secondary cooler is used), the horn flares to a large radiation surface (shown generally as 20) facing space and connects (e.g. a vacuum tight epoxy seal 7) at the periphery of its large diameter D2 to vacuum shell 21 which may be radiatively cooled to a temperature of about 120� K. The radiant heat rejecting power Qr of this part of horn 11 to space is large enough to reduce the residual of the conductive parasitic heat flow (depicted as Qc2) which must be absorbed by the cryogen(s) to an acceptable level. In this regard, the outer radiating surface is preferably of high emissivity to maximize its radiative properties, and is shaded from warm surfaces (e.g. sun, earth, spacecraft).
The vacuum jacket 21 is cooled to roughly 120K by means of a conventional external radiator (not shown).
The horn itself is preferably made of a low thermal conductivity non-metallic material such as fiberglass-epoxy of minimum thickness for low lateral thermal conduction, and must typically structurally support one atmosphere of pressure with a safety factor for filling and ground operations. A foil metal liner (not shown) on the inside of vent horn 11 may be necessary to seal the horn against leakage into the high vacuum insulation space shown generally at 25 (e.g. multilayered aluminized Mylar and nylon net or other spacer material) surrounding the metallic (e.g. aluminum) container 12. An ejectable cover tank (not shown) containing liquid nitrogen (or other cryogen) may be used to reduce heat leakage for ground operations when the outer shell is at ambient temperature.
The method for sizing the horn and estimating its thermal performance in the exemplary system is in accordance with conventional thermodynamic analysis and is outlined in general terms for the exemplary embodiment as follows. Referring again to FIG. 1, the diameter D1 and shape of the horn must be sized to cause less than about 2�10-3 Torr pressure drop (space pressure can be assumed to be negligible) at the steady mass flow rate, M. This flow rate is based on the sum of the working heat load and all of the parasitic heat loads of the cooler. Thus, ##EQU1## where Ls is the latent heat of sublimation of the coolant.
The mass flow rate through the vent is also related to the vent characteristic as follows:
where ρ is the density of the vented gas and C is the volumetric flow characteristic or the "conductance" of the vent.
Conductance characteristics, or equations for the conductance through a vent line, are conventionally expressed in terms of the gas properties, the geometry of the vent, and depend on the nature of the flow, i.e. whether it is laminar, free molecular or in the transition range between two flow regimes. A more complete discussion of vacuum conductance appears in "Cryogenic Systems" by Randall Barron, McGraw Hill, 1966 at page 540 and is incorporated herein by reference. Generally, the conductance increases as a function of the diameter to a power greater than two and decreases linearly with the length.
The parasitic heat leak due to the horn is calculated using a network thermal model which takes into account all of the heat flow paths, material properties, geometry data and temperature profiles. The heat which reaches the 75K refrigerant (or the 50K refrigerant if a secondary cooler is not used) is greatly affected by the radiative power of the wide part of the horn and this fact is what makes the invention attractive and feasible.
The lateral heat flow along the horn is determined by classical heat conduction equations of the general form: ##EQU2## where K is the temperature dependent thermal conductivity of the material; A is the geometry-dependent cross-sectional area perpendicular to the heat flow; ΔT is the temperature difference over which the heat flow takes place, and L is the geometry-dependent length of the heat flow path.
The radiant heat flow out of the horn is calculated by radiant heat transfer equations of the form:
Qr =σE A (Th 4 -Tc 4)
where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant; E is an overall emittance factor for the horn depending on the geometry and surface radiative properties; Th is the radiating surface temperature; A is the surface area of the horn facing space; Tc is the temperature of space, which can be assumed to be negligible for purposes of the present invention.
It is believed that when a high capacity refrigerant (such as methane) is substituted for a low capacity refrigerant (such as nitrogen), the required mass of the cooler drops significantly because of various cumulative effects. First, the mass and volume of the coolant itself decreases, which in turn reduces the parasitic heat load on the coolant which reduces the required quantity of coolant and so on. The Flugelhorn is most effective when the space orientation is such that it almost always views black space, but this is not an absolute limitation.
Similar improved results are obtained for cases other than the above-described exemplary case. For example, nitrogen can be substituted for the less effective neon if the required temperature is near 30K; acetylene can be substituted for methane if the required temperature is near 90K; and ammonia can be substituted for carbon-dioxide at about 115K.
In this connection, Table II below lists cryogens whose minimum operating temperatures could be lowered by the Flugelhorn vent system in accordance with the present invention. Column 1 provides the expected minimum temperature utilizing conventional solid subliming cooler technology; Column 2 states the lowest temperatures achievable using radiatively-cooled vent line constructions in accordance with the present invention.

Several different configurations for the vent horn 10 may be used for specific applications. Some of these are depicted in FIGS. 2-6. The cone-shaped horn of FIG. 2 may well be the "best" configuration for many applications. The reversed spherical dish of FIG. 4, the torroidal horn of FIG. 5, the flat plate of FIG. 6 and the parabolic horn of FIG. 3 are other exemplary horn shapes.
Although one exemplary embodiment has been above-described as possibly using a secondary cooler 30, recent experiences lead us to now believe that the above-described embodiment without such a secondary cooler is one of the most viable embodiments.
While this invention has been shown and described in what is presently conceived to be the most practical and preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many modifications and variations may be made in the exemplary embodiments while still retaining many of the novel features and advantages of this invention. Accordingly, all such modifications and variations are to be considered within the scope of the following claims.

( 25)
Watch birds flying softly on your home background and relax.
Tap screen to spawn more birds.
This live wallpaper has a selectable number of birds in choosable colors to make your Android experience even better.
Optimized for battery usage.
Nice idea, but the choice of black and white or blue isn't really "customizable." Also, I wish the birds.were more animated rather than just floating.
Why is there no option to change any colors? I want to make my own choices with colors. Love the lwp but there's just no customization.
Great. Needs speed adjustment for the flight of the birds and customizable colors of your choich would be 5 stars.
Awesome wallpaper. Would be even cooler if it had customizable colors....or just a pink version would be amazing!
Love it. Would be awesome if the birds flapped around a bit, but otherwise very nice.
Looks amazing. Would like it even more if I could get a black background with white birds.

Farmer Feeds Marijuana to Pigs, Says Sales Are High
Category: Odd | Posted on Thu, May, 23rd 2013 by THCFinder
SEATTLE, Wash. (KTLA) — A butcher at Seattle's famed Pike Place Market has given a whole new meaning to 'pot-bellied' pigs.
After the state legalized marijuana use in earlier this year, William Von Schneidau started feeding his hogs unused weed by-products.
According to Schneidau, the pigs who were fed marijuana stems, leaves and roots were 20 to 30 pounds heavier than his other pigs.
And his 'smoked' bacon has been very popular.
In fact, his sales were so high, he ran out of meat.

Jewish Girls Gone Wild? Marijuana Lab Found in Haredi School
Category: Odd | Posted on Mon, May, 20th 2013 by THCFinder
When authorities discovered a lab full of marijuana plants in a bomb shelter beneath an all girls Orthodox Jewish school south of Tel Aviv, they proposed that outsiders must be responsible – because Haredim girls would never smoke pot, right?
A queer smell arose from the bomb shelter of the Kiryat Gat school for Haredi girls located about 35 miles south of Tel Aviv, The Jerusalem Post reports.
One teacher followed her nose, so to speak, and stumbled upon a professional growing lab in a bomb shelter below the school, which was complete with all the special lamps and irrigation technology required to grow twelve marijuana plants in a dark, enclosed space.
But here's where it gets funny. Perhaps to divert negativity away from the Orthodox community, law enforcement officials were quick to say they will explore the possibility that a stranger to the school had coveted the space for their illegal drug operation.
In fact, they are going to launch a full-scale undercover operation to root out the bad guy (girl?) with an attitude reminiscent of that recently directed towards 269life vegan activists who protested the meat industry with decapitated animal heads scattered in visible public places in Tel Aviv and surrounding neighborhoods.
Most rabbis consider all kinds of smoking to be a form of self-endangerment, so – given marijuana's mild mind altering qualities caused by the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) – it's probably safe to say that finding a pot growing lab at an Orthodox school is pretty darn scandalous.
However, and this is the case with so much in Israel, the country has a split personality when it comes to marijuana.

Marijuana: THC-injection fears are "idiotic," says doctor and cannabis expert
Category: Odd | Posted on Fri, May, 17th 2013 by THCFinder
Marijuana addiction specialist Dr. Christian Thurstone conjured images like the one seen here when, earlier this week, he shared what he sees as evidence of weed users searching for bigger and bigger highs -- and added his fear that such people may soon turn to injecting THC, the active ingredient in pot.
Dr. Bob Melamede, among the country's most vocal advocates for the medicinal benefits of cannabis, pulls no punches when asked his opinion about such a prospect. "This is nonsense," he says. "It's idiotic."
Thurstone is an extremely prominent figure locally and nationally on the subject of opposition to marijuana regulation and legalization. The medical director of a Denver Health program called Substance Abuse Treatment, Education and Prevention (STEP), he was also a member of the Amendment 64 Task Force, and he remains a primary figure in Project SAM, an organization spearheaded by former Congressman Patrick Kennedy that backs a public-health approach to pot.

Marijuana treated as a lost and found item on Seattle buses
Category: Odd | Posted on Sat, May, 11th 2013 by THCFinder
Metro bus drivers have been given new instructions for lost marijuana: turn it into the lost and found.
In Nov. 2012, a statewide ballot initiative approved adults age 21 and older to have up to one ounce of usable marijuana.
Even before that, Metro would occasionally find marijuana left on buses – typically small amounts in backpacks or film containers, sometimes with a pipe. That was turned over to police, and amounts over 1 ounce still will be, Metro spokesman Jeff Switzer said Friday.
"People can't just come to lost and found and say, 'I lost some pot,'" he said. "They will need to provide a lot more information before we reconnect them with that lost and found item."
Metro has roughly 200 bus routes, and riders trying to reclaim their missing weed will have to say specifically the route and time when they lost it. No one has tried to pick up pot from Metro's lost and found yet.
In an average year, Metro has about 40,000 lost and found items, with the most common being black umbrellas. But they also come across cell phones and laptops often, and sometimes even the more bizarre: dentures, personal items, and prosthetic limbs.

Harvard Law School Offers 'Tax Planning For Marijuana Dealers'
Category: Odd | Posted on Thu, April, 25th 2013 by THCFinder
I'm the last one to say this is a silly topic, because it is not. But you have to admit is sounds a little funny. Bizarrely–and there's much in our tax law that's downright bizarre–there's actually a need for this kind of, er, down and dirty tax planning session. And someone should bring the Cheetos.
Perhaps Harvard's Board of Trustees will get wind of it and get upset. But the ire should be directed at tax rules that need fixing. Now that we have legalized medical marijuana in 18 states and the District of Columbia can these businesses be run like businesses? Not really. Massachusetts was the most recent entrant, and its marijuana businesses, like those in all the other states, face legal and tax problems.
For that matter, Colorado and Washington have even legalized recreational use. Again, tax problems there too. Why? Because even legal dispensaries are drug traffickers to the feds. Section 280E of the tax code denies them tax deductions, even for legitimate business costs. Of all the federal enforcement efforts, taxes hurt most. "The federal tax situation is the biggest threat to businesses and could push the entire industry underground," the leading trade publication for the marijuana industry reports.
One answer is for dispensaries to deduct other expenses distinct from dispensing marijuana. If a dispensary sells marijuana and is in the separate business of care-giving, the care-giving expenses are deductible. If only 10% of the premises are used to dispense marijuana, most of the rent is deductible. Good record-keeping is essential. See Medical Marijuana Dispensaries Persist Despite Tax Obstacles.
Another idea was presented April 24 at Harvard by Professor Benjamin Leff of American University's Law School. Professor Leff's paper carried an unvarnished title: Tax Planning for Marijuana Dealers. It was part of Harvard's Tax Policy Seminar hosted by Harvard Prof. Stephen Shay. Mr. Leff correctly pointed out the 280E Catch 22 and came up with another end run.
Marijuana sellers could operate as nonprofit social welfare organizations, he suggested. See Growing the Business: How Legal Marijuana Sellers Can Beat a Draconian Tax. That way Section 280E shouldn't apply. A social welfare organization must promote the common good and general welfare of people in its neighborhood or community. Operating businesses in distressed neighborhoods to provide jobs and job-training for residents? That could fit a dispensary nicely.

The breweries keep on popping up all around Western North Carolina. Asheville took the lead, then both Waynesville and Hendersonville followed suit, and now Marshall NC is getting their first brewery thanks to Mad Co. Brewing! This coming Saturday is going to be the big day as they open at high noon and the party lasts until Midnight. Although they are not brewing their own beer just yet, they will have a bunch of guest taps for you to enjoy. If you are in the Madison County area, or just feel like taking a short drive from Asheville, you should check this place out!
5 Asheville Breweries Eateries That You Must Try
When you think about Asheville breweries, the first thing that comes to mind is craft beer of course. But after a short time, and a few brews, your stomach starts to kick in and put in a food request. You can always go to a restaurant that features plenty of local Asheville beer, as so many places do. Barley's Pizza for example is a staple in downtown Asheville, and although Highland Brewing started their operation in the basement, they have never actually brewed any beer themselves. Instead they have a pizzeria that hosts craft beer taps from the local area, as well as specialty nationwide taps.
Many of you want that brewery experience. In the past, breweries kind of strayed away from food for the most part. Some did not want to seem competitive with eateries, while other just didn't want the responsibility of food. Because if the food is not great, the beer begins to not taste so great either; consistency is important. So they either offered bar snacks or maybe even featured one of the local food trucks.
Now several breweries in Asheville are serving some delicious food options, and we even caught ourselves going there for the food first, and drinking a brew as an afterthought.
Here are the Asheville breweries-eateries that you must try:
- Sweeten Creek Brewing – they have their own brews on taps as well as several guest taps, and they are all good! But the sandwiches are out of this world. This spot will easily become your favorite sandwich shop. (featured in photo 1)
- Bhramari Brewhouse – talk about some amazing food and brews, this place has it all. You do not want to come to Asheville without stopping here for a beer and something to eat. (featured in photo 2)
- Wicked Weed Brewing – this place did not go from zero to hero by mistake. It was a calculated plan of stellar craft beer, mixed with a bunch of food options.
- Lexington Avenue Brewery – a local hangout in downtown Asheville that features many craft beer taps, a menu with lots of food, and one of the best people watching patios in the area.
- Asheville Pizza & Brewing – what goes better with a bunch of local craft beer taps than pizza? This spot has always been on point, and perfect if you are looking for a pizza & pub food spot that specializes in brewing their own beer.
Lunch at Sweeten Creek Brewing in South Asheville
So I was working today, and stuck doing so. That was until a tweet came across the screen from Sweeten Creek Brewing in South Asheville talking about their lunch specials. One was a ham with double Swiss cheese, and the other was hot shaved beef sub. So I abandoned ship and headed that way. I had been here before, but this was the first time I was here when they were open. The two previous times I was invited here by someone who did not check the hours, so was glad to finally enter the doors.
Upon arrival, I ordered a Brown Ale, because I was at a brewery. Now they had some non-beer non-alcoholic drinks, but I that's for the kiddos.
I got my sandwich and it was so delicious. The macaroni salad was pretty good too. This place could easily stand with any sandwich shop in the Asheville area.
Great spot with a nice beer bar, indoor space, and lots of outdoor space. It is a little hard to find, but once you get here, you will definitely enjoy!

A Delicious Dinner at Luella's Barbecue in North Asheville
Luella's is definitely one of our favorite go-to places if we are in the mood for barbecue. We stopped in tonight and as we were getting seated, I heard Aaron LaFalce playing the guitar, and you can watch the performance by clicking here. So we sat down and were greeted by Aniela, who then took care of us the whole time. Also bumped into my friend Suzie who is now working there. A great night all around!
First, we ordered some craft beer. This was the Soulvation IPA from Innovation Brewing!
Then we had chopped brisket, pulled pork, and pulled chicken, along with some fantastic sides such as mac & cheese, okra, and a pineapple casserole that we called our dessert.
And Aniela then introduced us to their loyalty card where you eat 9 meals and get one free. We did not know Luella's did this, but now we know, and will definitely use it. Thank you for a wonderful meal, staff and experience!

Apparently, our store shipping "calculate" is stressing out from some computer bug holiday syndrome. We haven't yet found the right tool for the job. The good news is, Free Shipping for all. If that doesn't work call us. We'll make sure you receive FREE shipping and a FREE gift for the call.
Thanks, happy herb filled holidays to all.
We've all been drinking a little more of our stress relief herbal formula, "Body Enhancer" while we get through this latest bug.
What do you do to get rid of stress in your life? What's in your stress relief tool box? Do you scream as loud as possible? Yelling can be a good release, not for the recipient of course, but that's another story. They say exercise is a great stress reducer, but sometimes we just have some lame excuse why we can't exercise. I find a good walk in a meditative state can bring down the blood pressure fairly nicely. Sometimes I'm just to hyped to sit and meditate, although meditation and breathing is an excellent stress remedy. Chinese herbs are a nice alternative to bring down the stress naturally.
In fact, the number one Chinese herb formula sold around the world is to reduce anger, worry, anxiety, generally speaking Stress (with a capital S). This herbal formula is called Xiao Yao San. It's made traditionally of eight herbs boiled together. We sell it here under the name Body Enhancer. We guarantee it will help you get through all those stressful moments. Drink this tea daily to take the edge off those emotional high's and lows It's been used for over 1000 years safely and effectively. Yes, even in the year 1010 people experience job loss, death, disease, poverty and all the same afflictions that can stress us out today. Even relatives visiting for the holidays… some things never change. Peace!

Water authority unveils alternative
The Altoona Water Authority on Wednesday detailed to City Council its alternative to council's plan to shop the Altoona water and sewer systems to a long-term lesee in exchange for a large, upfront payment to help the city get out of Act 47 financial distress.
The alternate plan calls for bolstering the authority's annual payment to the city for services and an authority takeover of funding responsibility for the city stormwater system – while pointing out what the authority says is the likely passage of a law that will allow the city to triple its local services tax to $156 a year – generating up to $7 million annually, enough to exit Act 47, according to the authority.
Council didn't respond directly to authority member – and former city mayor – Tom Martin's presentation of the proposal, and during media questioning were silent when the Mirror asked whether council intended to proceed with the system auction, which a consultant predicted would fetch between $180 and $240 million.
"Right now, we're committed to stay on (course)," Mayor Matt Pacifico said after the meeting. "We haven't discussed anything that would change that."
The authority plan called for increasing the authority's current annual payment of $2.9 million by $250,000, adding an annual inflation escalator and adding a clause to compensate the city for the fully allocated costs of degradation done by the authority's many street cuts.
The changes to the authority's annual payment should not violate Act 73, a state law designed to keep municipalities from raiding their authorities for money, according to the authority presentation.
The takeover of responsibility for funding stormwater costs, based on a recently approved state law, would allow the authority to operate the city stormwater system as a utility. The authority could assess property owners based on impervious acreage, then on the funding, easing the current burden on the city's general fund for handling the stormwater system, in imitation of a recent change in Ebensburg, officials said.
The method could ultimately be the way to pay for separating the city's combined sewers into separate storm and sanitary lines, if required, officials said.
The General Assembly legislation that would enable the increase in local services tax is likely to be passed this fall in the state Senate, according to the authority presentation.
A little financial trouble should not be the reason to give up control of "this tremendous asset," Martin said, adding that he didn't intend to minimize the gravity of the city's financial trouble.
It's unlikely that if a company with headquarters in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia or New York City gains control of the systems that its leaders would care for the city like the authority members do, Martin said – using the often-criticized authority headquarters building, dubbed the "Taj Mahal," as a positive example, for having fulfilled the authority's hopes that it would become a catalyst for revitalization of the northern downtown.
Martin questioned the independence of the consultant advising the city on the auction arrangements, pointing out that the firm stands to make money on the deal.
He also pointed out that a recent Mirror poll showed a large majority of respondents favor keeping the status quo.
And he warned that if it comes to auction bids for the system, the city might be legally obligated to take the highest one.
"It's possible there would be no turning back," he said.
Council has said it wants to proceed with the auction to learn the true value of the systems, but "in the hearts and minds" of city residents, the value of the systems is "priceless," Martin said.
About 45 authority employees attended the meeting in support of the alternative proposal, and many clapped when Martin finished his presentation.
An upfront payment isn't the only way to get out of Act 47, according to the authority's written proposal.
"A steady, reliable annual income stream will more than accomplish this purpose," the proposal stated.
"Haste should not be the watchword," stated the proposal. "Where the matter involves giving up operational control … the watchword should be deliberation."

Joe D's Notebook: The USF Recaphe start of the second half of the football season for the UConn Huskies proved to be similar to much of the first half of the season. UConn was too inconsistent to be successful in a 42-27 loss to South Florida on Saturday night. It began in the first two series of the game. The Huskies took the opening kickoff and moved the ball to the Bulls 10 yard line when the drive stalled and they had to settle for a Bobby Puyol field goal. It was a game where UConn needed touchdowns, not field goals. Then it took USF
Joe D's Notebook: The Cincy Recaphe UConn Huskies picked the perfect time to play their best game of the season Saturday. Not perfect by any stretch but certainly good enough to beat Cincinnati 20-9 for the Huskies first AAC win of the season. There was a lot to like about this one, not the least of which was the performance of the defense in the second quarter. Three times the Bearcats had the ball in the red zone and three times UConn held them to field goals. It's a lot easier to come back from 9-0 down rather than
Joe D's Notebook: The Houston RecapFor the better part of 12 ½ minutes on Thursday night, the UConn Huskies played the 6th ranked football team in the country dead even. The Huskies managed three first downs, held Houston to one and forced a three and an out on the Cougars second possession. But then reality kicked in. The reality that Greg Ward Jr is one of the best quarterbacks in the country and has a lot of weapons at his disposal. The Cougars scored on their next six possessions and steam rolled the Huskies 42-14 to avenge the only loss of the Tom Herman era.
Joe D's Notebook: The Syracuse RecapThis was a game that the Huskies should have won, could have won but let slip through their hands.
Joe D's Notebook: The Virginia RecapA win is a win. Team sports are not figure skating or synchronized swimming. There are no style points. And so UConn's narrow 13-10 win over Virginia carries the same value as a 45-10 win would be. It goes in the all-important left column in the standings. UConn again had to play from behind and yes, that's a disturbing trend. In fact, in their three games, the Huskies have led for only 10
Joe D's Notebook: Navy - The RecapThere aren't more stirring sights in college athletics than when the Brigade of Midshipmen march into Navy Marine Corps Stadium prior to a Navy home football game. It is truly one of the greatest traditions in sports. And there wasn't a more gut wrenching sight than the UConn locker room after their heartbreaking 28-24 loss to the Midshipmen on Saturday. I can't remember a more devastated group of players who put forth a superb effort only to come a half yard short of a signature win.
Joe D's Notebook: Game OneFirst off, it's good to be back at it with year #25 calling UConn football and basketball. The summer was a great one but it's time to get back to work. And it started Thursday night with a closer than anyone expected win over Maine. First off, let's give the Black Bears credit. First year head coach Joe Harasymiak had his team ready to play and they executed their game plan to near perfection. They put pressure on Bryant Shirreffs ,shut down Arkiel Newsome and quarterback Dan Collins was given all day to throw the ball.
Joe D's Notebook: The End Of The RoadFor all but one team in the NCAA tournament, the season ends with disappointment. The end for the UConn Huskies came Saturday night in Des Moines when they were knocked out by Kansas 73-61 in Round Two of the South Region.
Joe D's Notebook: Taming The BuffaloesThe motto of the NCAA tournament is survive and advance. That is exactly what the UConn Huskies did Thursday afternoon in round one of the South Region against Colorado.
Joe D's Notebook: The Lowdown From Des MoinesGreetings from the heart of the Corn Belt. It may not be at the top of anyone's list as a vacation destination but for eight college basketball teams, including UConn, there is no place they'd rather be.
Joe D's Notebook: A Wild Weekend In O-Town23 miles north of Walt Disney World, the Amway Center is the new Magic Kingdom for Husky Nation. That's where the 2016 UConn men punched their ticket for the NCAA tournament with three wins in three days at the American Athletic Conference Basketball Tournament.
Joe D's Notebook: The Lowdown From O-TownIt's not an understatement or an exaggeration to say that today's UConn-Cincinnati game in the quarterfinals of the AAC tournament is THE MOST IMPORTANT game in the country when it comes to NCAA tournament hopes.

Last night, noted activist investor Carl Icahn decided he wanted to move away from search engines -- Yahoo, (NASDAQ:YHOO) -- patents -- Motorola Mobility (NYSE:MMI) -- and biotech for a second, to decide he wants to be a truck driver. When you are worth billions, I guess you can do whatever you want.
No, Ichan is not giving up his day job being a corporate raider and activist investor. Rather, he filed a stake of 9.8% in Navistar International Corp. (NYSE:NAV), a military truck and recreational vehicle manufacturer. Icahn now owns several million shares in the company, and may have plans to acquire more. (Here is the complete filing with the SEC.)
The reason behind the $118.1 million stake? Icahn sees serious value in the name. Just take a look at this paragraph in the statement:
The Reporting Persons acquired the Shares in the belief that the Shares were undervalued at current levels. The Reporting Persons have had conversations with management of the Issuer to discuss the Issuer's business and will seek to have additional conversations from time to time to discuss the Issuer's business and strategies. They have also discussed the possibility of adding persons to be suggested by the Reporting Persons to the Issuer's Board of Directors but no agreements or understanding exist with respect thereto.
Further down in the letter, it says the person (Icahn) may acquire more shares. Now that Icahn seems to have washed his hands of Clorox (NYSE:CLX) by withdrawing his slate of directors, he can focus on Navistar. Owning 9.8% in the company is significant, and it is highly unlikely he will let this one go, as he did with Clorox. No one assumed Carl was serious with Clorox, and that ultimately proved to be right.
Clorox is a $9 billion company, while Navistar's market cap is only $3 billion, including today's 9% pop on the Ichan announcement. This means that Icahn can have significantly more influence on the board of directors as the company is smaller and Ichans' stake carries more weight.
Since hitting over $70 per share in April, shares of Navistar have gotten destroyed, losing almost half their value. The Warrenville, Ill.-based company has been approached by Icahn over potentially adding board members, but so far, nothing has happened.
Shares of Navistar trade at less than 7x 2012 earnings estimates, well below where competitor Paccar (NASDAQ:PCAR) trades. Icahn definitely sees the value in Navistar. Now it appears he is blowing his horn to try to get the company to do something to increase it.
Action Items
Bullish: Traders who believe that Icahn will be successful might want to consider the following trades:
- Icahn has had a strong history of being successful with his activist investments, although they take longer than some traders would like. Navistar's small size could lead it to be the next success story for Icahn.
Bearish: Traders who believe that Icahn will not win out here may consider alternate positions:
- Shares got a boost last night on the Icahn announcement. There is now hope baked into the stock. If Carl can not do something, and the company does not improve operations, shares could potentially fall.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Aetna ( NYSE: AET) announced third quarter 2016 net income (1) of $603.
The health care sector's ties to the increasingly unpopular Affordable Care Act, plus an uncertain U.S. presidential picture, give some financial experts pause.
Tech giants, Big Pharma and insurers are all angling to profit from the $3 trillion-plus U.S. healthcare market.
Last week was, by many measures, a good one for Hillary Clinton. It was strong for stocks that might surge under her presidency as well.
Hillary Clinton's standing in the polls has solidified in recent days, despite hiccups. The stocks that stand to do well with her in the White House haven't done particularly well.
Here is why CBS, Constellation Brands, Monsanto and Aetna will be winners in 2017.
Analysts say UnitedHealthcare is an attractive stock after the company beat earnings expectations Tuesday, sending the stock price soaring.
Stocks that might surge under a Hillary Clinton presidency have not followed her recent rise in the polls.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) today announced that third-quarter 2016 results will be made public on Thursday, October 27, at 6 a.
-- The Patient-Focused Model Supports High-Value Care--
Aetna (NYSE: AET), one of the nation's leading health care benefits companies, once again achieved high Medicare Star Quality Ratings for its Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MAPD) plans for 2017.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) announced today that it has entered into a value-based agreement with Merck (NYSE: MRK) for the type 2 diabetes medications Januvia® (sitagliptin) and Janumet® (sitagliptin plus metformin).
Hillary Clinton's odds at victory in November improved last week, but the stocks that stand to do well under her presidency remained largely unmoved.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) is offering resources to members who have been affected by Hurricane Matthew in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.
The Board of Directors of Aetna (NYSE: AET) today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) today announced a new value-based collaboration with Baptist Health & St.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) today announced a new initiative to revolutionize members' consumer health experience by combining the power of iOS apps and the unmatched user experience of Apple products including Apple Watch,...
The stocks that stand to do well under a Hillary Clinton presidency surged ahead of the first presidential debate on Monday.
With the presidential debate on the horizon, analysts are speculating how the healthcare industry could be impacted by either candidate.
Last week was not a great one for Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail, or for the stocks that might benefit from her presidency.
Despite spending more on health care than any other country in the world, Americans live shorter, less healthy lives than our counterparts in other high-income nations.
The most recent short interest data has been released for the 08/31/2016 settlement date, and we here at Dividend Channel like to sift through this fresh data and order the underlying components of the S&P 500 by "days to cover." There are a number of ways to look at short data, for example the total number of shares short; but one metric that we find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares typically traded. The number of shares short is then compared to the average daily volume, in order to calculate the total number of trading days it would take to close out all of the open short positions if every share traded represented a short position being closed.
Last week wasn't stellar for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, on the campaign trail or in the markets.
Hillary Clinton marked her biggest fundraising month to date in August, raking in a record $143 million. Hillary-friendly stocks, however, haven't had as strong a showing.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) and Piedmont Healthcare announced today that the two organizations have signed a new contract.
Aetna (NYSE: AET) announced today that Shawn M. Guertin, executive vice president and chief financial officer, is scheduled to present at the Morgan Stanley Global Healthcare Conference on Tuesday, September 13 at 12:55 p.
Even if the Dow merger with DuPont fails, Dow is in good shape.

Pelagic Oncoids and Ooids in the Middle-Upper Jurassic of Eastern Sardinia
- Francesco Massari
- , Iginio DieniAffiliated withIstituto di Geologia dell' Università
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
In eastern Sardinia a Middle to Upper Jurassic marine sequence more than 1000 m thick rests unconformably on the Palaeozoic basement and consists in the coastal area of three main lithostratigraphic units: the Dorgali Formation, consisting for the most part of dolostones (Bathonian), the ammonite-bearing Mt. Tului Limestone (Lower Callovian to Uppermost Kimmeridgian) and the Mt. Bardia Limestone (Portlandian to Berriasian). The second unit its gradually replaced westwards by oolitic and oncolitic dolostones, and is therefore incorporated in the first one (Fig. 1 A, C). A transgressive trend can be recognized in the lower part of the Jurassic sequence, from Bathonian to Upper Kimmeridgian. During this time span asymmetric carbonate shelf cycles mostly consisting of upward shoaling oolite sequences were formed. They indicate the existence of a wide shallow shelf with a system of tidal oolitic bars periodically prograding seawards and separating an internal shelf lagoon largely open to marine influences from an outer shelf area. The latter during the Early Callovian-Late Kimmeridgian was the deposi-tional setting of the Mt. Tului unit which in its lower part is represented by an oncolitic facies, mainly occurring in the more condensed and pelagic sequences.

Crowded trade alert.
Chris Cole, of volatility fund Artemis Capital, has an insightful piece in the latest edition of the CFA Institute Conference Proceedings Quarterly warning about one of the most popular trades of recent times: the shorting of volatility via Vix ETPs.
The speculative shorts on Vix futures as a percentage of open interest, for example, are already running at an all-time high. In Cole's mind this now equates to the shoeshine boy trade of the modern era.
One of the ironies, he also notes, is that the trade simply synthesizes a much less efficient version of a 3-4 times leveraged position on the S&P 500. Read more

The point is this: where we're going we'll still need roads, but there won't be (much) call for car insurance.
Moreover, insurers are going to be the agents of their own demise. They have no choice, the logic of robots is just too compelling, and the process has already begun. Read more
