2009 April Fools
this wiki
The 2009 April Fools event was released on 1 April 2009. If a player tried to pick a cabbage from the Falador cabbage patch, the cabbage would come to life, say a random phrase (such as "All hail Brassica Prime!") and hop around, or the player would pick a cabbage seed. The players could tap, kick, or catch cabbages. Once they were caught, they could be used as a weapon, thrown to other players, or be eaten. Players needed to have Accept Aid on and both hands free to toss a cabbage. However, all cabbages, with the exception of Draynor Manor cabbages, could be wielded. The "wield" option for cabbages was apparently removed when the Easter event began.
There was talk of a hidden message. Mid-afternoon, a Jagex Mod confirmed it was this: Those who were bored enough to kick one of the bouncing cabbages from the cabbage patch north-west of Draynor Village all the way to Oo'glog were thanked and rewarded with a cabbage by the one and only Brassica Prime!
Another joke appeared on the official forums when Mod Emilee said the seagull was added to the Hunter skill and that you could catch it with a butterfly net.
Trivia Edit
- When trying to enter the Soul Wars lobby with a cabbage equipped, a message appeared saying "Cabbages are not trusted in this arena".
- When this event was released, all cabbages received a graphical update.
- You could enter Fist of Guthix with a cabbage, presumably due to Brassica Prime being affiliated with Guthix, and the fact that cabbages are Guthix's favoured vegetables.
- Since 8 April 2009, all April Fools cabbages have been removed and those in players' inventories/banks became normal cabbages.
- Brassica Prime is a reference to the 2007 April Fools joke when he was mentioned and was an enemy for the fake update.

THE deed is done. Upon the doctor's insistence, we have placed my husband's stepmother in a nursing home near us.
She had been in failing health, both in mind and body, for some time. She cherished her independence, and we were as anxious as was she to have her remain self-sufficient as long as possible. A faithful and kind friend, a resident of her apartment house, kept in daily touch with her. She kept in touch with us as well. This and our visits to her distant home convinced us that she was losing ground. We encouraged her to accept regular household help, but she was indignant and refused flatly, quite provoked with us. Her friend was all she'd allow. Finally, a stroke wrenched away much of her discerning ability and destroyed her swallowing mechanism. Her friend rushed her to the hospital and called us. To save her life, her doctor inserted a feeding tube into the stomach wall. She is now fed by this umbilical cord. No longer can she savor her favorite flavors of ice cream or the texture of freshly cooked eggs, the crispness of toast or the comfort of a good wine. She requires round-the-clock monitoring for her daily needs and her failing judgment. Happily, she has been spared her speech.
And so this energetic and vibrant woman has been cut down quickly and permanently and lives a womblike existence with an uncertain and dim future.
Her great loves and interests in life are all but forgotten. For some weeks, she still talked of the summer baseball season and her favorite box seats. She was an ardent Mets fan and had prayed openly to survive a pennant win. She was 90 years old when it happened last year and was exultant and proud. She'd been right all along.
Her obsession with clothes won her acclaim and attention from friends and sales clerks. The costume jewelry to match piled up over the decades to create a bright mountain of clasps and glass. In bright array, she had taught in public and then private schools until she was 80. In the ensuing years, she relished television drama, sports and news, shopping forays and daily walks until poor health intervened.
My husband had dubbed her ''Mare'' as a child and our children followed suit. It was easier for them than the Grandmere we had suggested for her. She was unfailingly generous to our boys and enthusiastic about their pursuits, encouraging them in their vocations, supportive in their choice of wives and exultant in their production of offspring. She was always an incessant talker. She had a wry humor, somewhat dimmed by constant complaints about the world's treatment of her. But she was diligent and faithful in her teaching and balanced a home front as well, though she would be the first to cite the futility of housekeeping. She'd leave that to her neater sister.
Mare had always preferred to keep her own counsel regarding her business life and shared with my husband only a minimal amount of information. We never probed and she didn't offer. She never asked for help and we did only what she requested to make her path easier, providing her with whatever clothing or equipment for her apartment that she wanted. She preferred visiting with us to our coming to her. Her privacy, I guess, was her protection against invasion and vulnerability.
She spoke sometimes of having friends in for lunch, but rarely invited us to share a meal or our children with her. This was true even before my husband's father died 25 years ago. Since then, she rarely spoke of him. She had married him, a widower, when my husband was a small boy and, in later years, kept secret from newer friends the fact that she was not the child's mother.
After settling her in the nursing home, the next step for us was the specter of cleaning out her apartment. She'd never return, we finally realized. It was a sad and humbling fact. After some weeks, my husband and I spent four days in all, assembling and disassembling the facts and properties of Mare's life; her past and her present. We discovered so much.
The disarray was tragic. We could see that she had been lost, frightened and in fantasy for several hours before her friend discovered her. Paper, clothing, food and documents were everywhere. It took hours to find her personal papers, the record of her being. After that, we decided to divide the chores; my husband seeking out the past and I the present. As we began to unravel the horrific accumulation, a personality emerged that surprised and saddened us both. My husband found closets, cupboards and drawers filled with memorabilia, records and unmarked pictures of people that we didn't know. Tucked in were remembrances of my husband's school days, photos of him and his father, but none of her. She would never enjoy any of it again and so he disposed of it all. Countless trash bags of a woman's past life. A small drawer yielded up a few rings that she had long ago confessed to misplacing. She had even suggested that they might have been stolen.
For my part, I began in the kitchen, postponing the intrusion of her bedroom. I'd almost never visited there. I lifted out of cupboards broken dishes, grocery bags, kitchen tools, cleaning implements, most in disrepair, canned food and refrigerated dishes, ancient linens and bric-a-brac -some perhaps gifts from the hun-dreds of students she had taught. The piles got higher and higher. I began to feel drowned in it all.

The latest Game Informer has a feature about Rock Band, with mockups of the controllers. Or, rather, pictures of a microphone and a Fender Stratocaster, and a mockup of the drum kit. The image may or may not resemble the final drum kit, depending on whether or not Harmonix changes the prototype and on whether or not the Game Informer team has learned the secrets of Mega Memory.
According to the caption, "This isn't an exact representation of the drum kit -- Harmonix should reveal the final design soon. We crafted this picture from memory based on the time we played with the prototype." It's got everything we need: stuff to hit and stuff to kick.

An inkling of the coming post-man-purse era
Wednesday, April 12th, 2006What? Could the end of the great man-purse experiment be upon us already?
A brief item in last week's Variety treats the current wave of man-purse confessions (see Puff Daddy's, for example, below) as if it were merely the wake resulting from a fashion belly flop.
A mere four sentences, the featurette describes two non-pursey options for [...]

Actually, I have seen this before with the XSSF libraries - it seems that when you save some state gets reset and you start getting errors during all kinds of operations. The only workaround I found was to re-read the file after save (it was a Workbook in my case).

He ain't heavy, he's... Mauro Bergamasco, the great flank-forward who was made to look like the fall guy when he was switched to scrum-half against England last week. Mirco Bergamasco, who salvaged a degree of family pride by scoring Italy's only try at Twickenham, has mounted a moving defence of his brother.
"All the blame was put on him and the media reaction was exaggerated," Mirco said. "The fault was down to all the team. The tries we gave away were not Mauro's fault. We have analysed the game and the performance was not down to just one player but all of us. You will see a different Italy. We can't play any worse than we did against England. It's the team that makes mistakes and it's the team that lost. I know Mauro and I know his character. It's normal that he was angry. He wanted to give 100 per cent. We all have to take responsibility."
Nick Mallett, Italy's coach, has held his hands up. His experiment in selecting Mauro at No 9 was like something out of Frankenstein's laboratory, and it blew up in the faces of the Azzurri.
It doesn't get any easier for Italy, who today face a confident Ireland in Rome. The Irish, after their resounding 30-21 victory over France at Croke Park, have the rare luxury, in professional rugby, of naming an unchanged team, but Mallett has made five changes, some of them enforced. The first would have been to restore Mauro to his rightful position in the back row.
With three scrum-halves injured, Mallett has recalled the 33-year-old, New Zealand-born Paul Griffen, who last played for his adopted country against Portugal in the 2007 World Cup. At least he's a scrum-half, and he will team up with his Calvisano colleague Luke McLean, who gave a good account of himself after replacing the unfortunate Andrea Marcato. On the receiving end of Mauro's erratic service, Marcato was taking the ball either in the gutter or on stilts. Either way, he got clobbered and has a neck injury.
An even bigger blow is the loss of the Gloucester lock Marco Bortolami, who has a damaged knee. His place is taken by Tommaso Reato of Rovigo. Italy can ill afford to lose anybody, let alone their main line-out man.
Ireland have never lost to Italy in the Six Nations – though it was only 16-11 in Dublin last season – and are hardly likely to do so now. Although Gordon D'Arcy scored a try in his first Test since breaking an arm in the opening match of last year's championship, Ireland are sticking by Paddy Wallace to partner Brian O'Driscoll at centre.
D'Arcy, who came on as a replacement in the 63rd minute and scored three minutes later, said: "Declan Kidney put a lot on the line by selecting me in the 22 because I haven't played much rugby. It's all about chances and the need to take them when they arise. There are no guarantees. Paddy played fantastically until he got a knock on the head. Whatever happens, I'm happy with my progress after a long injury." Of his touchdown he said: "It was a moment of absolute elation."
O'Driscoll, the captain, wins his 90th cap – but for injuries it would be past 100 – and is still one behind the prop John Hayes, who equals the record of Malcolm O'Kelly, some feat for a playerwho started at the age of 18 with Bruff in Limerick. O'Kelly is a replacement, so he could add to his 91 caps.
Teams at Stadio Flaminio

The Howard Hughes said early Wednesday it expanded its real-estate assets in Downtown Columbia, MD with the acquisition of two office buildings.
Both purchases — the American City Building and One Mall North — were underwritten in view of their future development potential, according to a company statement.
The purchase of ACB for $16.5 million unlocks the potential for redevelopment in the Lakefront District in Downtown Columbia for up to 1.5 million square feet of additional density as the acquisition allows for termination of restrictive covenants on neighboring parcels of the company's holdings.
One Mall North, which is 100% leased, is a 97,500 square foot, four-story office building that was bought for $22.25 million. The building is currently leased to a diverse roster of tenants, including medical, financial, engineering and technology companies, with minimal near-term rollover.

Two analog and eight digital channels, a sampling rate up to 2 Gsample/s, a memory depth up to 2 Msample, and a true vertical sensitivity of 1 mV/div are all featured in an instrument which is priced under a 2,000 euros tag.
The mixed signal oscilloscopes are able to analyze serial SPI buses on digital channels while simultaneously monitoring two analog signals referenced to the transmitted SPI data. All that is needed is the separately available R&S HO3508 logic probe from Rohde & Schwarz, which is compatible with all R&S HMO oscilloscopes.
Rohde & Schwarz has packed numerous math functions into the R&S HMO1202 oscilloscopes, from simple standard operations such as add, subtract and divide to logarithmical differentiation and integration of waveforms. A formula editor is also available for entering a variety of calculation functions, such as integrating
waveforms to determine the charge on a capacitor.
The built-in FFT analysis functions with their 128 kpoints are equivalent to those found on larger oscilloscopes. Time domain signal, measurement window, result and analysis range are displayed in a single window, greatly facilitating spectral measurements. FFT analysis can even be performed on recorded signals, making it possible to analyze segments of interest by varying the window width.
The integrated pattern generator generates protocol messages at up to 50 Mbit/s. Developers can supplement the predefined messages by programming their own signal patterns of up to 2 kbit in length. This enables them to emulate circuit components that are not yet available, such as sensors. Overall, with numerous other functions for mask-based pass/fail tests as well as the high waveform update rate of 10 000 waveforms/s, the R&S HMO1202 oscilloscopes are ideal for developing electronic circuits.

First-time buyers can save hundreds of thousands on the price of their new home by moving out of London.
But even "traditional" commuters towns are becoming too expensive as house prices continues to climb across the UK, according to research.
Barnet, Harrow and Orpington have become unaffordable for people buying their first property, according Urban.co.uk, an online estate agency.
Using a "Commuter Map", the estate agent selected the best regions to commute from by comparing the cost for an annual season ticket, the distance to London as well as the region which have experienced the biggest increase in house prices over 2015.
House prices in Barnet are significantly higher, coming in at more than £1.3 million, despite boasting the cheapest season tickets at just £1,608 annually.
Harrow and Orpington, which each have a journey time of less than half an hour, also saw price increases of 18 per cent and 15 per cent respectively.
Adam Male, founder of Urban.co.uk said with property prices increasing in and around London, first-time buyers find it difficult to "put down roots" in locations which are commutable to the capital.
Erith, in the London Borough of Bexley, came out on top of the list as the most affordable area with the shortest commute. Average house prices in the area are currently £247,3261, only a little over the UK average of £212,4302. With an annual travel cost of £1,912, the price and journey time (around 30 minutes) is also significantly lower than in other areas.
Peterborough, with prices £42,500 cheaper than Erith for similar journey times, is another viable option for buyers willing to face a longer commute. The annual fees for a ticket would amount to more than £7,400.
Real opportunities for first time buyers are in cities such as Manchester and Liverpool. Average property prices are as much as £52,000 times cheaper than the UK average.
Manchester is also a region experiencing rapid property growth, with prices rising by 30 per cent since last year, while Liverpool saw an increase of 52 per cent.
The current two hours commute should also soon be improved by the impact of the High Speed Two (HS2), a £50 billion high speed train which will take commuters from London to Birmingham in 49 minutes when the first phase opens in 2026, before heading north to Leeds and Manchester.
Male said improvements to transport links are redrawing the UK's commuter map but house hunters will have to act quickly.
"With Crossrail near completion, we can expect to see improved links from outer regions like Romford and Brentwood and places like Reading are already feeling the Crossrail boost. Buyers will have to move quickly though, as house prices across the board are rising rapidly in anticipation of these improvements," Male said.
Crossrail 2 was given the go-ahead by an independent body on Thursday. The route would link the surburban railway network from Wimbledon to Tottenham Hale via a new tunnel under the city's centre.
Supporters say the new link would give London's economy a multi-billion-pound boost and support 200,000 new homes as well as 200,000 new jobs.

Card Games: Fishing Games
In fishing games each player has a hand of cards and there is a layout of face up cards on the table. Each player in turn plays a card. If it matches a card or cards in the layout, the played card and the matched cards are captured and placed face down in front of the player. If the card played does not match it is added to the layout.
There are many oriental fishing games, including most of the games using Japanese flower cards (hanafuda). In these games, after playing a card from your hand and possibly making a capture with it, you turn over a further card from the face down stock, and can also capture with that card as though you had played it.
- Go Stop (Korean flower cards)
- Tiu U (dominoes)
- Chinese Ten (Jiăn Hóng Diăn - pick red spots) (cards) and its Thai variant Red Frog Black Frog and Indonesian variant Main Merah.
In the Western style of fishing games, cards are only played from the hand, not turned up from the stock. It is generally possible to use a card to capture several cards at once if the ranks of the captured cards add up to that of the played card. Various forms of these games are surprisingly widespread throughout the world.
- Casino - the best known fishing game in English speaking countries
- Royal Casino - a variant of Casino in which pictures are treated as numbers; versions of this are also played in Sweden, Finland, the Dominican Republic and southern Africa.
- Krypkasino is a negative version of Swedish Casino: the aim is to avoid capturaing scoring cards.
- Tuxedo is an American variant of Casino played with Rook Cards.
- Scopone and Scopa - very popular in Italy
- Escoba - a popular Spanish and South American game, in which cards are captured by making a total of 15.
- Cuarenta - played in Ecuador; matching a card also allows cards in sequence with it to be captured
- Cicera - a variation of Scopa played with 52 cards
- Zwickern - north German game (from Schleswig-Holstein) with high value jokers, and the possibility of building upward or downward
- Tablić - popular is Serbia and other former Yugoslav countries; Romanian Tabinet is similar.
- Žandari is played in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
- Basra - a fishing game played in several Middle Eastern countries
- Pâsur - a fishing game that is popular in Iran.
- Seep, also known as Sip or Sweep - a fishing game played in northern India and Pakistan, especially in the Punjab.
- Eléwénjewé, a Yoruba game from Nigeria.
- Ronda - Moroccan game in which sequences can be captured
- Porrazo - another game featuring sequences, played in California and possibly also in Mexico.
- Stealing Bundles (Casita Robada) - a simple fishing game for children
- Laugh and Lie Down - a 17th century British game
- Snitch'ems - a late 18th century game from Yorkshire
- Cau Robat - a simple Catalan game
There is another type of fishing game played in Turkey, Albania and perhaps other places, in which the table cards are not laid out separately but played in a single pile. Matching the top card enables the whole pile to be captured.

Tourism with tears in horror museum
TOURISTS are grim-faced, some even in tears when they visit one of Washington's latest attractions. The Holocaust Memorial Museum is not a pleasant place to visit. The horror of the Holocaust is told in tiny detail: the date that all Jewish lawyers in Germany were disbarred; the systematic killing of physically and mentally disabled Germans; the hair of Holocaust victims - thousands of pounds of it - collected and baled.
In spite of the morbid exhibits, more than 2,000 free tickets are snatched up daily. To ensure entry, reservations must be made four to six weeks in advance.
The exhibition begins on the fourth floor and winds downward. The first sounds and pictures are of American soldiers liberating a concentration camp. The information is delivered in four, and sometimes five, ways - text, artefacts, photographs, film and voices.
In November 1938, ''Kristallnacht,'' the attack on synagogues and Jewish businesses, further isolates the Jews. Poland is attacked in 1939. The killing of 70,000 mentally and physically disabled Germans in hospitals and asylums. The crowd keeps moving you along.
Pictures and words show the decision to annihilate the Jews - mechanised murder that begins in 1941 as the first Jews are gassed in Poland.
More from the ghetto. Film of bodies being buried in Warsaw. No narration - none needed.
In the Auschwitz section, an area is set aside to sit and listen through loudspeakers to the voices of Auschwitz survivors. The stories put lumps in your throat.
Nearby, the Zyklon B canisters that held the pellets that dropped through vents, burst and released deadly gas.
Three television screens enclosed by a five-foot-high wall showing gruesome Nazi medical experiments on prisoners.
Then there are the shoes, 4,000 of them, from Majdanek in Poland: sandals, boots, suede shoes, baby shoes, gold lame, leather shoes, a room full of shoes.
Finally, the film of the survivors, interviews with the men and women talking about living through hell.

F&H TV arrived and all was well until we started to watch it for over 1 hour then had a problem. Contacted Ebuyer, very easily done via website with e-note, who swiftly arranged for collection to inspect & repair (if possible) or replace tv. TV was repairable and was collected within specified time. Unfortunately mishandling by courier and tv arrived back with us damaged. Contacted ebuyer (by phone this time as wanted to discuss with them immediately about the problem), handled very efficiently by their customer service team. Courier arranged for collection and inspection of unit before Ebuyer could arrange replacement, within 2 weeks Ebuyer sent us a brand new set. Fortunately this was not our main tv set and so the time taken wasn't really a problem. All in all the product is good (especially for the price) and the customer service received was helpful and efficient. We have bought several products from Ebuyer and will continue to do so. Would definately recommend as their products are usually much cheaper than anyone else, their delivery service is great (often FOC) and the customer service (when needed) has been spot on.

world & wool cupboard
In October I'm going to run the second workshop of this year and I'm already looking forward to returning to Marrakech.
At the moment I'm working on a new project for the
cool crochet workshop
I will use the wool I brought back from Marrakech last April. I wanted to make a woven wall hanging with it actually, but now I have a new colorful crochet project in mind...

Wrath. To me it was the only tightly held together storyline based in lore. TBC, all over the place. Vashj was collecting water? Wat? Cata, also all over the place, multiple story lines going together with no tie up besides "Deathwing got all these people together"
MOP is going really well, I just haven't seen the rest of it.
I can't help but laugh at all the diehard fanboys voting MOP.
I still play the game and will probably continue to do so, but the lore in Mists doesn't even come close to holding a candle to the lore in Wrath.
MoP has done the best job of explaining and engaging you in the story even if you're like me and haven't been paying attention to the quests and such.

I know, it's hard to believe warcraft lore would come to rats and rabbits jumping on green meadows, pandas doing kungfu and cooking chinese food, and we are fighting beer barrels and Sha's that came from nowhere.
The people who wrote the story for MOP should consider first resigning and then going back in time for getting a hardcore lobotomy.
Mmmm, I dunno. The storytelling is very rich and deep in MoP. The subject matter isn't as compelling (how can it be when we've already used up all the major lore of the RTS series?) but the way the story is told and all the little details, like random books you can read, the Lorewalkers etc are actually superior to Wrath.
I'd vote Wrath ahead of MoP, but mostly because it had the Scourge, Arthas and Ulduar to lean on.
---------- Post added 2013-02-18 at 05:44 AM ----------
Not a lot more. Just the Burning Legion which is pretty two dimensional. And Sargeras who is an evil god so if we ever do get to fight him it would be kind of ridiculous.
P.S. Blonde is for girls, blond is for boys.
Anyone who voted for BC has obviously never played Warcraft III and knows nothing about Warcraft lore.
HAHAHAHAHAHAH! WotLK good? That made me laugh. You won't say that if you actually played WC3 and know how much Blizzard butchered Scourge's lore in WotLK. I can't help but laugh at wrath babies who don't know shit about Warcraft's lore and think WotLK was good because LK just looks cool without even knowing what happened before WotLK and how Blizz messed it up in WotLK.
BC > LK >>>>>>>>>> Classic >> MoP >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Cata
(More > = more greater than)
how can ANYTHING in the WoW universe be as epic as The Arthas lore?? no competition

Is Endone 'banned' medication?
Is Endone 'banned' medication?
Hi, I've got a friend coming to Thailand who will need to bring his prescribed Endone tablets with him (for severe knee pain). He'll have a doctor's letter, but we're wondering if his stash could still present a problem at customs should he get searched (they're opiate based). Does anyone know what I should advise him? Thanks.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a tandem, two-component mixer having an elongate dwell chamber. A reverse twist auger is located in the dwell chamber to provide continuous scraping of the dwell chamber wall and prevent a buildup of material therein. While the mixer of the present invention has a variety of uses, it is particularly well suited for the preparation of polyurethane gels filled with dispersed, discrete particles of aqueous solutions.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Tandem, two-component mixers are known to the mixing art and some of such mixers include a dwell chamber between the two mixing heads. Such prior art machines do not, however, have the ability to deliver a continuous stream of product where the reactants mixed in the machine gel rapidily. Such prior art mixers also permit a buildup of reactive material on the walls of the dwell chamber.
There are many chemical systems where it is desirable to provide a continuous product stream and where mixing control is important due to the reactivity of the various chemical substances. Cleanup of such systems is frequently difficult where the reactants have accumulated on the walls of the system or where adequate washing of the mixer components is prevented by improper mixer design.
One such chemical system is polyurethane gels formed by mixing a polyisocyanate prepolymer with an aqueous liquid. The prepolymer may be a prepolymer of an organic di-isocyanate and a polyether diol or triol, and the aqueous liquid may be water. Rapid mixing of the two components causes a gel to form and the final product desirably contains a homogeneous dispersion of discrete droplets throughout the gel. The final properties of such gels can be varied by the choice of starting materials and by the mixing techniques employed. The gel can have open or closed cells depending on these various factors and the nature of the cells can be adjusted by varying the solute in the aqueous solution. For example, the aqueous solution may contain colors, perfumes, fire retardents, electrically conductive materials and the like.
Gels such as those just described can be cast to a specific shape or can be formed in a mass for selected uses. The gels may also be extruded. Typical uses of such gels are in building construction, marking devices, prosthetic devices, medical devices, etc.
While the preparation of such gels is known, equipment has not been available for production of the gel on a continuous and reliable basis. Equipment required for this system must have the capability of efficiently mixing the reactants over a wide range of mixing conditions and must prevent gelled product from building up within the apparatus. Finally, the equipment must also be capable of being thoroughly washed to prevent permanent accumulations of product which would destroy the equipment or reduce its efficiency.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a mixing apparatus which overcomes the aforementioned problems of the prior art devices.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a two component mixing apparatus which includes mixing and dwell capabilities.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a mixing apparatus for two materials which also includes a provision for addition of a third material as a reactant or as a washing material.
A still further object of the present invention is to provide a mixing apparatus having an efficient dwell chamber mixing system.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a mixing apparatus which includes a dispensing valve capable of dispensing mixed reactants into one of two paths and which also includes means for cleaning said valve to prevent buildup of reacted materials therein.
According to the present invention, a tandem, two-component mixer includes a dwell chamber located between two mixing heads. Pumps, valves and flow gauges are provided for the two components to insure that the correct amounts of materials are reacted. A reverse twist auger is located within the dwell chamber, the auger insuring further mixing of the components and preventing a buildup of material in the dwell chamber. After product leaves the dwell chamber, it travels to a second mixing head and then enters a final valve. The latter is designed to permit the product to be dispensed through two paths and thus permits the entire system to be operated continuously. Moreover, the apparatus is designed so that all sections which have been contacted by the mixed reactants may be thoroughly flushed with a cleaning liquid. The mixer of the present invention may be variously embodied and may be used with a variety of reactive systems, all of which will be more apparent upon reading the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a mixer of the preferred embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the first mixing head used with the mixer of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, with parts broken away to show detail;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a second mixing head used with the mixer of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, with parts broken away to show detail; and,
FIG. 4 is an enlarged schematic of the dispensing valve used with the mixer of the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
The preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the aforementioned polyurethane gel system, but it should be understood at the outset that the use of that system in the description is for purposes of illustration rather than limitation. Many other chemical systems require intimate mixing of reactants and a dwell chamber. The present invention is also useful for such other systems.
Proceeding now to the description of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a mixer 10 is shown in FIG. 1 in generally schematic form. Three reservoirs are provided for the reactants and for a cleaning liquid. A first reservoir 12 is provided for the polyisocyanate prepolymer. Reservoir 12 may be a tank or other suitable container and in the preferred embodiment includes a collapsing diaphragm cover (not shown) to prevent air from contacting the prepolymer. As previously mentioned, the prepolymer may be a prepolymer of an organic di-isocyanate and a polyether diol or triol and preferably contains at least 40% by weight of ethylene oxide adducts. The di-isocyanate may be toluene di-isocyanate, isophorone di-isocyanate, polymethylenepolyphenylene-di-isocyanate, alaphatic di-isocyanates or related materials. The polyols are diols or triols formed by combining ethylene oxide with lower molecular weight diol such as glycerine or a glycol. The polyol may also contain some propylene oxide, butylene oxide or other alaphatic oxides as adducts.
A second reservoir 14 contains an aqueous liquid such as water or water containing solutes. The third reservoir 16 contains a chainstopper or cleaning liquid, such as a glycol. The three reservoirs 12, 14, and 16 may be constructed from any suitable material, such as glass or stainless steel, and each includes an outlet coupled to the mixing system.
The outlet from reservoir 12 is coupled to a tubular pipe 18 which in turn is coupled to a three way valve 20. An outlet of valve 20 is coupled to a pump 21 and then to a flow gauge 22. A short pipe 24 leads from the flow gauge 22 and includes a simple on/off valve 26 which is used to interrupt the flow of liquid through pipe 24 when desired. The outlet from valve 26 is a pipe 28. It is preferred that the various pipes mentioned in this description be constructed of stainless steel, but other materials, such as teflon lined pipes, may be used.
The aqueous reactant leaves reservoir 14 through a pipe 30 and in turn passes through a simiar pump 31, flow gauge 32 connecting pipe 33 and on/off valve 34. The aqueous material leaving the on/off valve 34 also enters pipe 28. Pipe 28 includes a T outlet 36 through which the combined reactants pass into a first mixing head 38.
Mixing head 38 is shown in greater detail in FIG. 2 to include a generally cylindrical, hollow body 40 having a funnel shaped bottom 41 coupled to pipe 36. Head 38 also includes an outlet 43 extending through the upper portion of its side wall. A second cylinder 45 is mounted within body 40, cylinder 45 having an open bottom 50 (facing toward pipe 36) and a closed top 52. The diameter of cylinder 45 is just slightly smaller than the internal diameter of body 40, whereby cylinder 45 is free to rotate therein. Cylinder 45 also includes a plurality of paddle bars 53 mounted within its lower half and a plurality of perforations 54 through its side wall and generally near the top of cylinder 45.
A motor 60 is mounted generally above mixing head 38, the motor having a shaft 61 extending therefrom and being oriented along the axis of body 40 and cylinder 45. The shaft 61 enters the top of body 40 through suitable bearings and water tight packings (not shown in detail) and is affixed to the center of top 52 of cylinder 45. Motor 60 then is capable of rotating cylinder 55 within body 40.
From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that the combined reactants enter body 40 and flow upwardly into cylinder 45. Because that cylinder is rotating (rapidly and at high speed in the preferred embodiment), the reactants are intimately mixed by the action of the paddle bars 53 and as upward flow continues, are further mixed as the reactants flow outwardly through perforations 54. The speed of mixer 38 will depend on the amount of mixing required for the specific chemical system, but as an example an rpm within the range of 1000 to 5000 is preferred.
Another pipe 63 is coupled to the outlet of mixer head 38 and to the inlet of a second mixing head 65. Mixing head 65 is similar to mixing head 38 except that the inlet and outlet are reversed. Mixer 65 is illustrated in detail in FIG. 3. Mixer 65 includes a body 66, an internal cylinder 67 having perforations 68, and a funnel shaped outlet 69. Mixing head 65 also includes a motor 70 having a shaft 71 coupled thereto for rotating cylinder 67 to provide further mixing as the chemical substances move toward outlet 69. Shaft 71 is again sealed through the left of body 66 but in this case passes through cylinder 67 and extends to the outlet 69. It should also be noted that mixing head 65 does not include the paddle bars such as were employed with mixing head 38. Also, motor 70 is a low rpm motor, with speeds in the range of 100 to 500 rpm being preferred. Of course, suitable sealed bearings and packing are provided at the left end of mixing head 65 to permit rotation of shaft 71 and prevent leaks.
A dwell chamber 75 is coupled to the outlet 69 of mixing head 65, chamber 75 constituting an elongate pipe, which again is preferably constructed of stainless steel or teflon lined piping. The length of chamber 75 is selected to produce a proper gel time for the chemical system used with mixer 10 and may range from 12 to 36 inches for polyurethane gel systems. It should also be apparent that the flow rate of the materials through the mixing apparatus will affect time of dwell.
While though the first two mixing heads are designed to emulsify the prepolymer and aqueous materials, the prepolymer will still have a tendency to fall out of the emulsion and adhere to the side walls of the mixing apparatus. The longer the dwell time required for the chemical system, the greater this tendency will be. In the present invention, this tendency is overcome by incorporating a reverse twist auger 78 into the dwell chamber to continuously scrape the walls of the chamber. Auger 78 also imparts a continuous turbulence to the flow of the mixed stream. Auger 78 in the preferred embodiment is constructed from a ribbon of stainless steel and is coupled at one end to shaft 71 of motor 70. The ribbon is twisted to form the auger, with the twist being reversed several times along the auger length, for example about every three inches. The reverse twisting insures adequate turbulence and prevents the emulsion of the two starting materials from breaking up in the dwell chamber.
Product leaving the dwell chamber 75 does so through a dwell chamber outlet pipe 79. Pipe 79 which may include an inlet for another component of the chemical system if desired or required. This inlet is shown in the drawings as pipe 80. The third component may be a chainstopper, such as the glycol previously mentioned and may or may not contain additives or fillers required to give the properties desired of the final product. For purposes of illustration, the third component will be glycol and is stored in reservoir 16. Reservoir 16 may include a stirrer 82 coupled to a low rpm motor 84 by a shaft 85 if stirring of this component is desired. Such stirring may be essential if fillers or additives have a tendency to settle from the carrier liquid.
This chainstopper is pumped from reservoir 16 by pump 87 and flows through a first on/off valve 88, a pipe 89 and a flow guage 90 towards the inlet pipe 80. A second on/off valve 92 may be provided intermediate the flow guage and coupling for a reason which will become apparent later in this description.
Because the mixing of the chainstopper with the emulsion of the prepolymer and aqueous solution can be accomplished quite easily in most cases, the combined flow proceeds through pipe 79 to a static mixer 95. Mixer 95 is of conventional design. Product flowing from the static mixer 95 then proceeds to a complex valve assembly 100 which will be described shortly and which permits the product to be dispersed for use or to be discarded at the discretion of the machine operator. Dispensing occurs through outlet 101 and discharging occurs through pipe 102. Another inlet is provided to valve assembly 100, i.e. a connection directly with pipe 89 carring the chainstopper. Pipe 103 includes a flow gauge 104 and a timer valve 105.
Dealing next with valve assembly 100, it will be of assistance in understanding this component if it is explained at the outset that it may be cleaned of reactive materials whether the reactive material is to be dispensed or discarded. This capability is important because if the dispensing head is shut down for a short time, even a time as short as 10 seconds, a partial gel within the dwell chamber 75 will occur. If the dispensing head is shut down for 10 to 30 seconds, the dwell chamber and the dispensing valve assembly 100 will become totally clogged.
Valve assembly 100 is shown in FIG. 4 to include a body 110 having a cylindrical valve member 112 rotatably disposed therein. The valve member 112 has three passageways formed therein for the flow of material. The first passageway is a straight, elongate channel 113 which is arranged to couple the reactive material inlet from the static mixer 95 to outlet 101 (when in the position shown in FIG. 4). The second passageway 115 is curved and is coupled at one end to the glycol inlet 103. This passageway curves upwardly approximately 90� and generally rearwardly through the valve member 112 and terminates at the surface of member 112. The third passageway is curved channel 117 which in the illustrated orientation begins at the top of valve member 112 and at the rear thereof, curving down approximately 90� and terminating at the discard outlet 102.
Two additional features of the valve remain to be described, i.e. coupling channels 118 and 120. Coupling channel 118 lies outside of the valve body 110 and is generally U-shaped. This channel couples the outlet of channel 115 to the inlet of channel 117 when the valve is in the orientation of FIG. 4. The second coupling channel 120 is also on the outside of valve body 110 and extends generally horizontally along the right side of valve member 112. The forward end is coupled to the outlet of passageway 117. Discard line 102 is also coupled to channel 120.
Now, describing the operation of valve 100, in the illustrated orientation product flows directly through passageway 113 for dispensing, while a glycol path is established from pipe 103 through passageways 115, 118, 117, 120 to discard outlet 102. If the valve member 112 is rotated by 90�, in a clockwise direction, it will be appreciated that a direct line is established from the glycol inlet 103 to the discard pipe 102 through passageway 113. At the same time, a flow path is established for the product stream through passageway 115 from the product inlet pipe to the discard line through passageway 120. In this second mode, channel 113 is flushed while product mixture is being discarded.
From FIG. 1, it will be appreciated that glycol flow to valve assembly 100 is controlled by the timer valve 105. Flushing must be continued for a time sufficient to cleanse the valve lines which contact the reactive mixtures, and it has been determined that a flush of 10 seconds is sufficient in most instances. Obviously, flushing of the valve 100 consumes glycol material and waste is avoided by employing the timer valve as shown in the Figures.
It will also be appreciated that all other parts of the mixer 10 which encounters the prepolymer material or the emulsion may be flushed with the glycol. For example, if it is desired to flush the system, valve 88 may be closed and valve 20 rotated to send the glycol through valve 20, pump 21, flow gauge 22 and through the remaining parts of the apparatus. The aqueous material flow can be interrupted during such flushing by closing valve 34. Similarly, the glycol flow can be directed through pipe 89 and upwardly through the static mixer and dwell chamber 75 by appropriate control of the various valves of the system.
While the present invention has been described by reference to a single preferred embodiment, the invention is not to be limited thereby, but it is to be limited solely by the claims which follow.

I'll let you in on a little secret: I was the one that really wanted to go apple picking because I wanted to have a reason to bake with apples. Aside from eating them as is, I love just about every apple dessert in existence. Sure, I wanted the girls to experience apple picking because I had such great memories of my first time apple picking, but I also have even better memories of all the things I baked. The only glitch in this plan is that whatever I bake has to be something that comes together quickly and easily as time is short during the weeknights. Thankfully, most apple desserts come together quickly (I usually spend more time chopping apples than doing everything else) and I can put something in the oven to bake while we sit down to have dinner.
The first apple recipe of the season that I conquered was an Apple Walnut Bread. I chose this recipe because I knew I had all the ingredients and because I got a craving for apples and walnuts after seeing so many great recipes on Pinterest. I made minor changes to the recipe, used a Golden Delicious apple, and halved the recipe (below). The end product was so good! We ate slices of the bread with and without butter and I think I preferred the buttered slices because it made me feel like the fall season inside. Even more surprising to me was that Alex liked it; he usually doesn't like anything I've tinkered with to make healthier.
Apple Walnut Bread
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg 1 tsp vanilla
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp ground flaxseed
1 medium apple, chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare one medium loaf pan or 2 small pans by spraying them with non-stick cooking spray.
Beat together first 4 ingredients. Add the dry ingredients mixing well and scraping sides of the bowl.
Fold in the apples and the nuts. Pour batter into loaf pan(s). Bake for 35-40 min., or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let sit and cool for 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
Follow me on Pinterest @steppystar to see what I else plan on baking with these apples. Also, give a follow on Facebook and Instagram @thecookierunner to see more about my Chicago and baking adventures!

Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for both trachoma and sexually transmitted infections, causing substantial morbidity and economic cost globally. Despite this, our knowledge of its population and evolutionary genetics is limited. Here we present a detailed phylogeny based on whole-genome sequencing of representative strains of C. trachomatis from both… (More)
Trachoma remains a leading cause of blindness. Determining the most effective antibiotic treatment strategy is essential for the success of country-based trachoma control programs.
Baseline and 2-month follow-up examinations were performed in a trachoma-hyperendemic village. All residents were offered azithromycin for trachoma after… (More)
Trachoma is the leading infectious cause of blindness worldwide, and responsible for the loss of an estimated 1.3 million disability-adjusted life years, mainly in sub-Saharan Africa [1]. Geographically, trachoma is a greater public health risk in dry, dusty, and hot settings, where poor, rural communities suffer a disproportionate burden of disease.… (More)

A trachoma control programme was started in southern Sudan in 2001. We did a 3-year evaluation to quantify uptake of SAFE (surgery, antibiotics, facial cleanliness, and environmental change) interventions, and to assess the prevalence of active trachoma and unclean faces.
Cross-sectional surveys, including clinical assessment of… (More)
Antibiotics are an important part of WHO's strategy to eliminate trachoma as a blinding disease by 2020. At present, who needs to be treated is unclear. We aimed to establish the burden of ocular Chlamydia trachomatis in three trachoma-endemic communities in Tanzania and The Gambia with real-time quantitative PCR.

Data from studies done in communities where trachoma is mesoendemic suggest that ocular infection with Chlamydia trachomatis can be eliminated after one mass treatment with antibiotics. However, there are no comparable long-term data from trachoma hyperendemic communities. Our aim, therefore, was two-fold: first, to ascertain the disease pattern… (More)
Trachoma is caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. Clinical grading with the WHO simplified system can be highly repeatable provided graders are adequately trained and standardized. At the community level, rapid assessments are useful for confirming the absence of trachoma but do not determine the magnitude of the problem in communities where trachoma is present.… (More)
