Filed Dec. 6, 1971, Ser. No. 205,202 Int. Cl. H05k 3/06 U.S. Cl. 156-345 8 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An etching apparatus is provided, in which articles, such as printed circuit boards and various other types of articles may be etched, within a chamber, during their movement through the chamber of the etching apparatus. Disposed beneath the chamber is a reservoir or sump for collecting etchant, or treatment fluid that is sprayed onto the articles as they are being conveyed through the chamber, with the sump or reservoir extending laterally of that portion of the apparatus directly beneath the chamber, for ease of top access to the reservoir, through a removable access opening therein, for ready access to a removable and replaceable lter disposed within the reservoir, near the inlet to an etchant pump also disposed therein. All of the etchant plumbing is contained within the apparatus, for internal collection of the etchant in the event of leakage or the like.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In the manufacture of printed circuit boards, it has become commonplace to provide etching apparatus, whereby, after a mask has been applied to those portions of the board which are not desired to be etched, Such as those comprising the circuitry lines of a copper printed circuit board, the remaining portions of the board (generally copper) are treated with an etchant, such as an acid or the like. One suitable etchant is ferrie chloride, that is particularly adaptable for the etching of copper from printed circuit boards. The etchant is generally sprayed onto the boards as they pass along a conveyor, through an etching chamber. The etchant is generally delivered to spray nozzles, by means of piping. The etchant has been collected at the lower end of the apparatus, and generally delivered by gravity or by other suitable means, through a pump located externally of the etching apparatus, the pump being driven by a suitable electric motor or the like, and with the outlet of the pump returning etchant under a desired spraying pressure, by suitable distribution lines, such piping or other distribution lines being located, at least in part externally of the etching apparatus.
It has been found, that it is desirable to filter the etchant, as it is being recycled, in that etchant may pick up minor particles, such as dirt or metallic particles or the like, during its spraying process. Accordingly, etchant filters have come to be utilized. In order to achieve sufcient filtration area, such filters have been located internally of the etching apparatus. However, considerable ditiiculty has been encountered in facilitating removal and replacement of the lters, particularly if it is desired to remove a lter during an etching process, principally because of the location in which it has |been necessary to place such filters, beneath a spraying zone.
PRESENT INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention is directed toward providing an apparatus that will overcome the above features, and permit the removal and replacement of etchant lilters, even during an etching process, by locating such lters in an area that is removed from directly 3,776,800 Patented Dec. 4, 1973 ICC beneath the spraying zone, and even more precisely, that is located laterally, outwardly of the remainder of the etching apparatus, for ready access upon opening or removal of an access closure. Furthermore, the present invention mounts the pump internally of the etching apparatus, preferably disposed within the reservoir of etchant, at the lower end thereof, and with the outlet from the pump, as well as all distribution lines to the spray nozzles, being located internally of the etching apparatus, for prevention of leakage problems caused by accidental damage to such distribution lines, and also to facilitate reclamation of etchant in the event of leakage. Thus, the present invention provides an apparatus for containing, internally of itself, the etchant or other treatment liquid, without requiring the conveyance of the same externally of the etching apparatus, such that the complete etchant distribution system is an internal system, relative to the etching apparatus.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is therefore directed toward the provision of an etching apparatus having internal etchant delivery and distribution facilities, and for providing access to the iilter component of the system, from a laterally outset portion of the apparatus, as Well as for providing an internally operative pump.
Accordingly, it is a primary object of this invention to provide a novel etching apparatus.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a novel etching apparatus, wherein access to the etchant reservoir is in a lateral extension of the reservoir.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a novel etching apparatus, having ease of access to a removable and replaceable filter therefor.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a novel etching apparatus, wherein the etchant pump and etchant distribution lines are located internally of the apparatus.

A ghost has three oil lamps. The first lamp uses 1 lbs of oil in 1 night, the second lamp uses twice as much oil as the first lamp, and the third lamp uses 3 lbs of oil in 1 night.
Now, this ghost has a special tradition when it comes to using his oil lamps. He lights up the first two lamps during the first 10 nights and on the 11th night he adds the third lamp.
For how many nights will the lamps burn if there are 90 lbs of oil in the ghost's storage?
Ok. In the beginning the kids were enthusiastic about the story. They drew the lamps and the owner of the lamps. They were able to figure many things on their own and with certain things I had to help them. Then we got to the part, where I wanted them to write down all the steps of the solution and here it started. There are seven steps and my poor kids thought it was some kind of sophisticated torture exercise because I kept on asking, "And how many oil lamps this and that....?". After a certain point the kids started to give me just random answers about those ridiculous oil lamps and it was frustrating and hilarious at the same time.
When it was all over, I turned to my friend, who was there, and I said to her, "It was a complete failure. I totally lost them." My friend, who is the sweetest person on earth, said, "You did great. Really. They are little but they have to learn it anyway. Let me buy you lunch".
Hahaha Those oil lamps. Argh. Never again.

Scrabble gets a technological makeover ahead of the Prague Mind Sports Festival
Mind Sports (International), part of the Living it Loving it Ltd. group of companies has given SCRABBLE™ a 21st Century makeover resulting in the creation of arguably the most expensive and advanced tournament Scrabble system in the world!
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121115/574134 )
Set to be unveiled and used by participants at the eagerly anticipated Prague Mind Sports Festival (December 1 - 4), the revolutionary Scrabble system is a 'tech-lovers' dream and is the result of months and months of development and testing.
Costing in excess of £20,000 to produce, the system utilises custom built RFID technology in order to read the entire Scrabble board almost instantaneously (974 milliseconds), transmitting the information via unique software to viewers online.
"Our goal was to help bring popular Scrabble tournaments to life, whilst reaching a wider audience by capturing tournament play in a technologically advanced and engaging manner," explains Dave Brannan, CEO, Mind Sports (International) and Living it Loving it Ltd.
"This allows us to broadcast Scrabble in all its glory, interacting with viewers that share a passion for this iconic game and mind sports as a whole across the world."
The Scrabble board consists of nine RFID circuit boards that house 225 RFID antennas, which read each individual Scrabble square. Each Scrabble letter tile has its own uniquely identifiable RFID tag embedded within (100 in total), with an RFID circuit board enclosed in each of the players tile racks to ensure that all information is captured and showcased to the online viewers.
The tournament play software, created by leading UK developers The Site Doctor, extracts the information collected via the RFID readers and relays it on screen in an easy-to-follow, graphical display alongside the HD video footage of each player. Coupled with the online streaming of the tournament; fans of Scrabble will be able to easily track the action live as it unfolds from the venue - creating a front seat atmosphere from the comfort of their own homes.
In addition to the technology integration, a great deal of work has also gone into the aesthetics of the new Scrabble system. The board's turntable unit has a carbon fibre finish and integrated RGB controlled LED lighting system in order to bring additional style and complete customisation to the table - a design which has quickly become a focal point of the festival following recent pictures being leaked via Twitter.
Whilst at the festival the new system will also receive in-depth review from some of the biggest names in the industry. Attendance of current World Scrabble Champion, Nigel Richards, has recently been confirmed as well as Canadian expert, John Chew, and Rachel Riley from Channel 4's Countdown reporting from the event.

In his session at @ThingsExpo, Animesh Singh, an STSM and Lead for IBM Cloud Platform and Infrastructure, will detail how to build a distributed serverless, polyglot, microservices framework using open source tec...

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

- Layla Thurman, "The Familiar Devil" (10/14/14)
The devil looks familiar
When I pass him in the streets
Something about his hair and eyes
reminds myself of me
Or you perhaps.
His face is never clear
Always changing.
But the devil is always
Familiar to me
Perhaps because
I am so familiar with him

Childe Hassam, "The Avenue in the Rain" (1917)
"The Avenue in the Rain . . . is one of some 30 related paintings of flag-decorated streets that the artist [Childe Hassam] produced between 1916 and 1919, during and immediately after the First World War. . . . [T]hey are intensely patriotic works . . . .
". . . The avenue is Fifth Avenue, frequently decorated with American flags as American sentiment moved . . . from isolationism toward intervention. The artist's most striking device here is the projection of flags into the picture from points of unseen anchor beyond the frame . . . . In one sense the flags become the surface of the painting . . . .
"Observing shadows to be bluish rather than black, the Impressionists often became mannered in their use of blue, making it a dominant hue in many of their paintings. . . .
[H]ere the rain and the rain-slicked streets give [Hassam] an excuse for a literal wash of blue and blue-gray, enhanced by a profusion of reflections."
Hassam (pronounced HASS'm;) (known to all as Childe, pronounced like child; named after an uncle[1]) was born in his family home in Dorchester, Boston, in 1859. His father Frederick was a moderately successful cutlery businessman with a large collection of art and antiques.[2] He descended from a long line of New Englanders. His mother, Rosa, a native of Maine, shared an ancestor with American novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne. His father claimed descent from a seventeenth-century English immigrant whose name, Horsham, had been corrupted over time to Hassam. With his dark complexion and heavily-lidded eyes, many took Childe Hassam to be of Middle Eastern descent - speculation which he enjoyed stoking. In the mid-1880s, he took to painting an Islamic-appearing crescent moon (which eventually degenerated into only a slash) next to his signature, and he adopted the nickname "Muley" (from the Arabic "Mawla", Lord or Master), invoking Muley Abul Hassan, a fifteenth-century ruler of Granada in Washington Irving's novel Tales of the Alhambra.

"Splitter!" Portrait of an American Journalist Covering the Republican Convention
Splitting (also called black-and-white thinking or all-or-nothing thinking) is the failure in a person's thinking to bring together the dichotomy of both positive and negative qualities of the self and others into a cohesive, realistic whole. It is a common defense mechanism used by many people. The individual tends to think in extremes (i.e., an individual's actions and motivations are all good or all bad with no middle ground).from Wikipedia
People matching the diagnostic criteria for narcissistic personality disorder also use splitting as a central defence mechanism. Most often the narcissist does this as an attempt to stabilize their sense of self positivity in order to preserve their self-esteem, by perceiving themselves as purely upright or admirable and others who do not conform to their will or values as purely wicked or contemptible. Given "the narcissist's perverse sense of entitlement and splitting ... [s]he can be equally geared, psychologically and practically, towards the promotion and towards the demise of a certain collectively beneficial project".
The cognitive habit of splitting also implies the use of other related defence mechanisms, namely idealization and devaluation, which are preventative attitudes or reactions to narcissistic rage and narcissistic injury.

An anarchist is someone who doesn't need a cop to make him behave.A. Hennacy, "The Book of Ammon" (1965)
The dictionary definition of a Christian is one who follows Christ; kind, kindly, Christ-like. Anarchism is voluntary cooperation for good, with the right of secession. A Christian anarchist is therefore one who turns the other cheek, overturns the tables of the moneychangers, and does not need a cop to tell him how to behave. A Christian anarchist does not depend upon bullets or ballots to achieve his ideal; he achieves that ideal daily by the One-Man Revolution with which he faces a decadent, confused, and dying world.

MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 05/13/14 -- (Family Features) The world's largest soccer tournament is just around the corner, but you don't have to be in Brazil to celebrate the soccer craze with your entire family. There are plenty of fun ways to gear up for the festivities at home -- and score some fun in the process.
To help kick off summer in entertaining fashion, consider spending quality time together with these family-friendly soccer activities.
Play a game of "Red light, Green light." You don't need teams of 11 players to have fun with a soccer ball. Consider a game of "Red Light, Green Light," which can be played with only a handful of people. Line up any number of players, each with a soccer ball, facing one person who serves as a "caller." The players dribble a soccer ball toward the caller, who starts the action by yelling "green light." When the caller says "red light," they must immediately freeze, while stopping the ball. If a player moves or allows the ball to roll after "red light" is called, that player must take five steps back. The first person to cross the finish line gets to call out the commands for the next round.
Throw in an unexpected element. Make things more interesting by tossing the new M&M's M-Ball into the mix. The bright yellow M-Ball is a fun twist on a traditional soccer ball, shaped to resemble the iconic M&M's Peanut candies. The unconventional design sends the ball spinning into unpredictable directions, which levels the playing field for people of all skill levels. You can set up a designated goal to aim for, or form a circle and attempt to kick the M-Ball to each other. No matter how you set it up, it will undoubtedly be a good time.
You can get your hands -- or feet -- on the M&M's M-Ball by entering an instant win contest on Facebook or by visiting a retailer featuring an M-Ball display. Find out more information at www.facebook.com/mms, where you can also see soccer stars from the LA Galaxy and the Philadelphia Union test out their skills with the unpredictable M-Ball.
Set up an obstacle course. Here's a challenge: Create an obstacle course for soccer lovers. Gather cones or other objects from around the house to use as obstacles. Line them up and yell out a combination of moves needed to complete the course, such as dribbling around the obstacles and kicking the ball. Feel free to get creative here and throw in some other tricky moves, like hopping through hula hoops, performing a cartwheel or completing a somersault.
Quiz them with soccer trivia. Entertain soccer fans, while educating them in the process, with a soccer-themed trivia session. Here are some questions to get you started:
- The twenty white patches on a soccer ball are in what shape? (Hexagon)
- Which country will host the big tournament this summer? (Brazil)
- How many black patches are on a typical soccer ball? (Twelve)
- How many teams compete in the global tournament? (Thirty-two)
With the world focusing on the sport of soccer this summer, get the whole family involved and excited about the game with these interactive activities.

And if Haviland's recent work with Schulze is any indication, a fourth won't be necessary.
The 26-year-old right-hander pitched six hitless innings on Friday night before the Midland RockHounds dropped a 6-5 decision at Corpus Christi.
"I feel like I am finally turning a corner in Double-A after the year I had last year," Haviland said. "This is definitely one of the best -- if not the best -- outings of my career."
Haviland hit a batter and walked two others over the first three innings but retired the final 11 Hooks he faced. Schulze connected the early wildness to being too quick to home plate, and the hurler made the in-game adjustment. Having his full complement of pitches helped, too.
"Against a team like Corpus Christi," he said, "those guys can really swing it, so it's important to be the aggressor. I was throwing lots of changeups and curveballs to keep them off-balance."
That, he did. And as a result, the former Harvard standout and 2008 33rd-round Draft pick lowered his ERA to 4.70. His 6-8 record through 24 games (14 starts) remained unchanged.
While the numbers might not scream success, they do in comparison to those he posted a season ago for the RockHounds: 6-12, 7.08 ERA in 27 starts.
Haviland made a name for himself under Schulze's watch in 2010 at Class A Advanced Stockton, going 9-6 with a 3.65 ERA and a 166-to-44 strikeout-to-walk ratio in the hitter-friendly California League. He said he and his coach have made minor tweaks to his mechanics. Among them, getting his throwing hand out of his glove quicker pre-pitch.
Beyond that, Haviland credited his recent relegation to the bullpen.
"That was to give me a different look and get my confidence back," he said, adding that he prefers starting to relieving.
Corpus Christi rallied for four runs in the bottom of the ninth against right-handers Jonathan Ortiz and Brett Hunter (2-1).
Hooks starter Paul Clemens (0-1) -- the Astros' No. 8 starter -- gave up four runs on seven hits, including a pair of homers to Tyler Ladendorf, over 6 2/3 innings. He was making his first start following Thursday's demotion from Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 24-year-old right-hander won half of his 16 decisions in the Pacific Coast League and compiled a 6.73 ERA in 20 starts.
Ladendorf, who Haviland described as as a patient hitter usually ready to pounce on the fastball, has seven homers on the season. This was his second career multihomer game; and first since Aug. 8, 2010 as Haviland's teammate on the Ports.
