Pool is the best part of the experience. Ambiance lets you relax and get into the vacation mode. Rooms are outdated/motelish but the amenities of the hotel and activities outside will not keep you in the room long.
Nice place on the beach. Clean rooms. Nice and friendly staff. I would recommend finding another good restaurant in town for breakfast and dinner.
Pool area was nice but the beach area didn't have enough chairs/umbrellas for the guest. The room was average even though we upgraded.
The Hotel is OK, old building but clean room and infront of the beach, good breakfast and nice staff.
Beds were ok, loud music played from bar until 10 or so, Fine dining restaurant Deco was delicious, close to downtown area, can walk to beach, best hotel showers- actually had awesome water pressure.
The staff was very friendly and helpful but the hotel is run down. The beds were comfortable and clean. On our last night a rat wandered in from the balcony. I need say no more.
excellent place and services from the front desk to restaurantts
Would stay here again.....beach was nice and the room was comfy and clean.....walking distance to everything
The hotel location was excellent, right on the beach but I was given a room next to the housekeeping station and the cart noise during the night was a bit much.
The hotel staff was very nice and friendly. Rooms are very comfortable and the bed is amazing. I had a great night sleep. That restaurant at the hotel is five stars highly recommend it.
Horrible room. Very moist. needs a major furniture upgrade almost all the furniture in that room was broken. The faucets were old and rusted. The shower head were dirty. There was a big gap in the bottom of the front door where all the insects and spiders crawl in. Outside the balcony I had a View of palm trees and a bunch of spiders webs surrounding the leaves. There was a horrible smell of moisture in the entire room especially in the bathroom. Never again will I stay in this place.
On the beach. Good pool. Probably was once great; on its way down. Close to many places and things to do. The price is right.
Roomy place with beach as your back yard with friendly staff, good food and drinks in large pool bar, 8 year old grandson loved the kid friendly swimming pool
Great location. Staff has excellent customer service skills. The rooms are in need of major updating. The pool also needs repair.
Hotel is an excellent location with its poolside and beachside setup. The rooms are good sized but could use an upgrade. There was no wifi. Pool towels are not always available at the pool but at the front desk. When I asked for pool towels at the front desk, I was asked to make the rather long registration line. Good foof at the lunch and brakfast buffet.
Some items of the hotel needed new paint or replacement, but my overall experience was very good. All the staff were excellent and friendly. Yes, I will come back again.
The hotel was average. Facilities need to improve. First day the pool was not clean.
My wife and I enjoyed it very much. Staffs where very polite and helpful.The only issues where that we had no Internet and the food was a little pricey. But it was beautiful.
Pretty terrible overall. Rooms were musty, toilets clogged if there was any toilet paper in them, there was a constant puddle on the bathroom floor, the hot water only worked about 50 of the time, and the balcony door was broken so it would not shut completely. We went with a group that had three other rooms and they all had the same problems. There are better options in the area.
Place of contact with nature, beach and sun. The bar at the pool is great and also the music that is played most of the time. Some other entertainments may be included, such as funny games, dances, etc. You can also visit the beach of Rincon town, The Lighthouse Park, and a lot of restaurants. Go and enjoy.

Bath and Body Works, an American chain that sells similar neatly packaged fruit and floral beauty products in almost 300 stores across the US, has just opened in Milton Keynes, Derby and Edinburgh, under the aegis of Next and using old Next stores. Here, in the shape of Sun-Ripened Raspberry Bubble Bath and Mint Gel for Tired Legs, is a serious rival.
Judging by the packed reception on the first Saturday of trading in the Milton Keynes store, only 100 yards away from the nearest branch of Body Shop, Bath and Body Works has timed its arrival perfectly. 'The Body Shop is old hat,' says Katie Flowers, 16, squirting some Wake Up Body Wash on to her hand. 'This is much better, and it's cheaper. Soap's only 95p.'
Instead of sanctimonious posters about Rice Bran Body Scrub or Brazilian womenfolk, Bath and Body Works abounds with hearty signs decorated with red-checked gingham, welcoming us to the 'Health and Beauty Farm', and has a jolly 'Country Cart' in the front door offering on-the-spot samples. No sign of a rainforest collection tin. Shop here, dine at Harvester.
Bath and Body Works, owned by the American clothing giant The Limited, is all about pampering and fun. In place of Body Shop's well-publicised mission 'to dedicate our business to the pursuit of social and enviromental change', Bath and Body Works simply states: 'We do not test on animals; we make products that are good for you and fun to use.'
''I don't think people care about the environment much any more,' says Catherine Paradine, 24, clutching a basket of Sun-Ripened Raspberry Bubble Bath and Bath Lotion. 'People go for the price and smell of the product.
This place is much better than Body Shop anyway. They put more of a show on for you.'
Round the corner, Body Shop is facing the onslaught with dignity. 'People are still into environmental issues and animals,' says one customer, standing by defiantly large stacks of Antibacterial Tea Tree Oil Soap ( pounds 1.50). 'I wouldn't change to another shop.'
'We won't be beaten by Bath and Body Works, or by anyone else,' says the manager, Julie Standbridge. 'Our customers are loyal and supportive.'
Shop assistants in Bath and Body Works bound around in gingham aprons, hair bunched in red ribbons, faces scrubbed and smiling. The smell of apples and oranges pervades the shop; upbeat music comes over a sound system.
'The feel is of the American heartland,' explains the manager, Helen Cairns, as she rolls a 'Hand- made with Love' Happy Massager over a startled customer's back. 'There's a natural, wholesome image here. Environmental?
Not really.'
She points to a poster of a cosy- looking house surrounded by a white picket fence and gently falling autumn leaves. 'That's the idea. Not an English look, but an American country feel. You know, happiness.' She smiles brightly.
In Milton Keynes, shoppers seem to care little about the American heartland.
'It's just nice to see something new,' says Kerry Batman, 22. 'Body Shop fragrances are old-fashioned, like dewberry. This is so fresh in comparison.'
Bath and Body Works outlets now open - Edinburgh: 74-75 Princes Street; Derby: 21 St Peters Street; Milton Keynes: 134-136 Midsummer Arcade. To come: Nottingham (next Tuesday) and Watford (18 November).

This application is a continuation-in-part of applicant's copending application Ser. No. 756,365, filed Jan. 3, 1977 and entitled "MICROWAVE METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REPROCESSING PAVEMENTS."
This invention relates to the production, maintenance and resotration of concrete pavements and more particularly to pavements and paving operations involving the overlaying of asphaltic concrete on non-asphaltic concrete.
In this specification and the following claims, the term "cement concrete" will be used to refer to pavements of the kind in which rock particles of various sizes are joined by a binder, such as Portland cement or the like, that does not soften upon being heated to high temperatures. The term "asphaltic concrete" will be used to designate essentially thermoplastic concretes in which rock particles are bound by asphalt or an equivalent substance that can be softened to a liquid or semi-liquid state by being heated and which reharden upon cooling.
Paved highways, roads, bridge decks, aircraft landing runways and the like formed of cement concrete deteriorate after a period of time most notably by developing cracks which tend to enlarge. Slight cracks or incipient cracks may occur initially during the original curing of the concrete. Others may be initiated by thermal expansion and contraction effects or by impacts and uneven pressures from heavy vehicles or other causes. Cracks, including those which are initially very small, tend to enlarge and deepen over a period of time in part from the effects of repeated freezing and thawing of water which accumulates in the cracks.
While this progressive cracking is undesirable in any concrete pavement, it is a particularly serious problem in connection with concretes which contain steel reinforcing elements or the like. When cracks progress to the point where water may reach the reinforcement elements, rusting can greatly weaken the load-resisting capability of the concrete. Loss of structural strength from rusting of reinforcement elements is a very serious problem in bridge decks, although the problem is not limited to that particular context.
Many of the extensive conrete roadways and bridge decks which have been built in the recent past in the United States of America and elsewhere are exhibiting serious deterioration from cracking and surface irregularities and will eventually have to be replaced at great cost and effort unless better techniques for restoration and maintenance are developed.
Using known methods, concrete deterioration can be inhibited to a limited extent and worn concrete can be temporarily resealed by applying any of a variety of hardenable liquid sealants to the surface to inhibit water intrusion into cracks. The effectiveness of this process as heretofore practiced is very limited, particularly if the pavement is subjected to heavy use. Such sealants apparently do not penetrate as deeply and completely into cracks and other openings as would be desirable and the sealant itself may deteriorate rapidly.
Attempts have also been made to cast a dispersion of small wax beads within the concrete with the intention that after some deterioration has occurred, the concrete may be heated to liquefy the wax and that the wax will then flow into the interior openings of the concrete and reharden and reseal the pavement. This also has not proved satisfactory possibly because of the limited mobility of the liquefied wax or possibly because of the difficulties of deeply heating pavement with conventional heating methods.
Probably the most common prior method for addressing the problem discussed above has been to reseal and resurface the deteriorated cement concrete pavement by applying an overlayer of asphaltic concrete. While this accomplishes the desired result for a limited period of time, asphaltic concrete is itself subject to cracking and general deterioration with the result tha the problem soon reappears. Further resealing and resurfacing of such a composite pavement at that point, using known techniques, is a very costly and timeconsuming process at best.
The present invention provides a resealable concrete pavement and methods for the production and periodic resealing and resurfacing of pavement utilizing microwave energy. While the invention is applicable to the installation of new pavement at roadways, bridge decks, aircraft runways or the like, it is also highly valuable in connection with the restoration and maintenance of existing cement concrete pavements which may be exhibiting deterioration from cracking and other causes.
A composite pavement produced in accordance with the present invention may have a base layer of cement concrete and an intermediate layer of thermoplastic sealant, portions of which may extend down into any cracks or surface irregularities that may be present in the base layer. An overlayer of asphaltic concrete or the like is provided which preferably has a softening temperature greater than that of the sealant layer.
The composite pavement is formed by directing microwave energy into either newly cured or partially deteriorated pre-existing concrete pavement to quickly and deeply heat and dry the base layer concrete. Heating and drying may be facilitated by also applying hot gas to the surface of the base layer. An intermediate layer of thermoplastic sealant is then applied to the base layer and readily penetrates down into such cracks as may be present owing to the deeply heated state of the base layer produced by the microwave irradiation. An overlayer of asphaltic concrete is then applied and the composite pavement is compacted. The product is a composite pavement which is sealed against water intrusion and, moreover, is easily and efficiently resealable at intervals thereafter.
At such time as the composite pavement itself exhibits significant deterioration from cracking or other causes, resealing and resurfacing is quickly, easily and economically accomplished with little or no additional materials by then deeply heating all three layers of the composite pavement by microwave radiation followed by recompaction. The sealant layer, which preferably has a softening temperature lower than that of the asphaltic concrete overlayer, quickly becomes liquid or semi-liquid as a result of the microwave radiation and again penetrates into cracks and voids in the reheated base layer. In instances where deterioration is sufficiently severe, recycling of the asphaltic concrete layer is readily accomplished by remixing and rescreeding the decomposed asphaltic concrete between the microwave irradiation step and the recompaction step.
While both the initial production process and the resealing and resurfacing processes can be performed on a batch or fixed area basis, it is readily possible and advantageous to perform either method while traveling continuously along a roadbed or the like.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide more effective and economical methods for the maintenance of concrete pavements.
It is another object of the invention to provide more practical and effective methods for sealing concrete pavements, including old, deteriorated pavements as well as new pavements.
It is still another object of the invention to provide methods for inhibiting structural weakening of reinforced concrete at bridge decks, roadways and the like.
It is still another object of the invention to provide for production of a composite concrete pavement which may be readily resealed and resurfaced at periodic intervals and to provide efficient and economical methods for accomplishing the resealing and resurfacing.
The invention, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will be better understood by reference to the following description of preferred embodiments taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIG. 1 is a vertical section view of a resealable composite concrete pavement produced in accordance with the invention.
FIG. 2 is a schematic flow sheet illustrating steps in a method for sealing concrete pavement and for producing a composite pavement of the form depicted in FIG. 1,
FIG. 3 is a graphical depiction of the rate of subsurface heating of concrete utilizing a microwave heating step in accordance with the present invention and, for purposes of comparison, also showing rates of subsurface heating utilizing conventional concrete heating techniques,
FIG. 4 is a graph depicting the vertical temperature gradient established within concrete heated by the microwave irradiation technique of the present invention and also showing, for purposes of comparison, the temperature gradients established in the concrete by conventional methods of pavement heating,
FIG. 5 is a schematic flow sheet illustrating an advantageous modification of the concrete heating and drying step of the method of FIG. 2,
FIG. 6 is a broken-out elevation view of apparatus suitable for accomplishing the method of FIGS. 2 and 5 on a continuous process basis while traveling down a roadway, bridge deck or the like,
FIG. 7 is a schematic flow sheet illustrating steps in a method for resealing and resurfacing of composite pavement of the form depicted in FIG. 1 after an interval of time during which deterioration may have occurred, and
FIG. 8 is a schematic flow sheet illustrating an alternate method for restoring a composite pavement, of the form shown in FIG. 1, where deterioration is more severe.
Referring initially to FIG. 1 of the drawings, a resealable composite pavement 11 produced in accordance with the invention may have a laminated structure including a base layer 12 formed of non-asphaltic cement concrete. In this particular example base layer 12 is a bridge deck having internal reinforcement members such as steel rebars 13 although the method is also applicable to road pavements or other concrete paving which may or may not have reinforcement. The base layer 12 in this particular example is a somewhat deteriorated bridge deck exhibiting irregular cracks 14 produced over a period of time by the freezing and thawing of accumulated water and other causes as previously discussed. While the base layer 12 need not necessarily be reinforced concrete nor need it be deteriorated used concrete pavement, this particular form of base layer 12 is described in the present example since the structural weakening of a bridge deck as a result of concrete cracking and subsequent rusting of rebars 13 presents particularly serious problems. The base layer 13 may, alternately, be freshly cast concrete which is immediately converted to a composite pavement 11 in order to facilitate future resealing and restoration operations.
The composite pavement 11 has an intermediate or sealant layer 16, disposed over the base layer 12, which is formed of thermoplastic water-impervious material of the type which becomes liquid or semi-liquid upon being heated above a softening temperature characteristic of the particular material. The thermoplastic sealant layer 16 may for example be formed of asphalt or other known materials, such as sulfur or polyethylene, having similar properties. The thermoplastic material of the sealant layer 16 extends downward from the surface of the base layer 12 into such cracks 14 or ruts, pits and the like which may be present in the base layer.
The resealable composite pavement 11 further includes an overlayer 17 of asphaltic concrete formed of rock aggregates bound together by asphalt binder or the like. Such concretes may be decomposed by heating to a temperature at which the binder softens or liquefies. In order to facilitate the later resealing operations to be hereinafter described, which involves softening or liquefaction of the thermoplastic sealant layer 16 by microwave heating of the composite pavement, it is preferable that the asphaltic concrete layer 17 employ an asphalt binder or the like having a softening temperature higher than that of the material of the sealant layer 16.
In some prior methods for overlaying asphaltic concrete on non-asphaltic concrete a water-impervious plastic sheet has been disposed between the two concrete layers. Such plastic sheeting may be included in the present composite pavement if desired but, if used at all, it should be situated between the sealant layer 16 and the asphalt concrete overlayer 17 rather than between the sealant layer and the base layer 12.
The vertical thickness of the cement concrete base layer 12 may vary widely as determined in the known manner by the anticipated loads on the concrete. In instances where the base layer 12 is old deteriorated pavement the base layer has a pre-existing thickness established when the concrete was originally laid down. The thermoplastic sealant layer 16 may typically be applied in amounts ranging from about 0.2 gal./yd.2 (1 liter/m2) to about 1 gal./yd.2 (5 liters/m2) although such amounts should not be considered as limitative of the invention. The asphaltic concrete overlayer 17 will normally have a vertical thickness in the range from about 1 inch to 3.5 inches (2 cm to 9 cm), although special circumstances may dictate other thicknesses.
A sealed and resealable composite pavement 11 of the form discussed above may be produced by the sequence of steps depicted in FIG. 2. The starting point for preparation of the composite pavement is a pre-existing cement concrete pavement which may be either newly formed in the conventional manner or may be a partially deteriorated old cement concrete pavement which is to be sealed and resurfaced.
Prior to application of the layer of thermoplastic sealant material to the base layer of cement concrete, the cement concrete is heated deeply preferably to a depth at least equal to the maximum depth to which cracks in the concrete may extend. Where the sealant layer material is asphalt or a substance having a comparable melting point, the base layer concrete should be heated to temperatures in the range from about 170� F. to 284� F. (77� C. to 140� C.). Except in arid geographical localities such heating serves two purposes. First, such heating dries the cement concrete base layer including removal of water which may be present in cracks. Second, heating of the cement concrete base layer in this manner assures that the thermoplastic sealant will penetrate fully into such cracks or other surface irregularities as may be present without being cooled and hardened, prior to full penetration, by contact with relatively cold concrete. In certain arid geographical regions such as deserts the cement concrete base layer may already be dry but deep heating is still needed for the second reason discussed above. The concrete heating step also promotes strong bonding between the sealant layer and the concrete base layer by preventing overly rapid cooling of the sealant material at the interface and still further facilitates a subsequent compaction step by assuring that the sealant layer remains in a softened condition for a period of time.
In accordance with the invention, the heating step is accomplished by directing microwave energy into the cement concrete base layer. This novel method of heating pavement has unique characteristics which cannot be duplicated by conventional pavement heating methods all of which apply heat in one form or the other to the surface of pavement and then rely on the slow process of heat transfer by conduction downwardly into the pavement. The conventional heating methods are not only far slower but also establish a very severe vertical temperature gradient in the concrete so that heating is highly non-uniform. As a practical matter the surface must be severely overheated in order to obtain a desired temperature at some specific depth in a reasonable period of time. Because of this inherent temperature gradient, using conventional methods of pavement heating, the rate at which heat energy can be applied to the concrete is itself limited by the need to avoid a damaging high temperature at the immediate surface of concrete. Microwave heating contrasts sharply with each of these characteristics of conventional forms of pavement heating.
Microwave energy, which is not itself heat, penetrates downwardly through the volume of concrete virtually instantaneously and then converts to heat energy inside the concrete through an electrical interaction with molecules of dielectric constituents of the concrete, most notably by interaction with rock aggregate molecules. Heating is therefore extremely rapid and it is relatively uniform. There is in fact a slightly inverted temperature gradient within the upper several centimeters of concrete which characteristic aids in promoting drying as will hereinafter be discussed in more detail. Because of the relatively uniform heating of the concrete, the rate at which energy can be transferred into the concrete is not limited by a need to avoid burning of the surface as opposed to other portions of the concrete.
The extreme speed of heating of concrete with microwave energy is depicted graphically in FIG. 3 in which the temperature of concrete at a depth of three inches (8 cm) below the surface is shown as a function of time as determined from experimental data where a sample of Portland cement concrete was irradiated with microwave energy at a power input of 4 kw/sq. ft. (43 kw/m2). For purposes of comparison FIG. 3 also shows the results of applying infrared heat to the concrete surface at a power input of 1000 watts per square foot (10.7 kw/m2). As pavement heating has in some prior cases been accomplished by laying electrically heated blankets on the pavement surface, FIG. 3 also illustrates the rate of rise of temperature at a depth of three inches (7.6 cm) in the concrete when an electrically heated blanket was laid on the surface and operated to apply heat at a power level of 100 watts per sq. ft. (1076 w/cm2). The concrete at a depth of three inches (7.6 cm) was heated by microwave energy to a temperature of about 185� F. (85� C.) in about 10 minutes. A comparable temperature at that depth was reached only after about two hours of the infrared heating. A comparable temperature at that depth was not reached at all using the electric blanket heating during the 41/2-hour test period represented on the time scale of FIG. 3 although such temperature was eventually reached after about eight hours. It should be recognized that the sizably greater energy input per unit surface area that was employed with microwave as opposed to infrared heating and electric blanket heating, in the data of FIG. 2, is representative of the fact that much more intense energy inputs are practical when microwave energy is the heating medium. As previously discussed there are limitations to the rate at which it is practical to apply energy to the surface of concrete using the older conventional methods, the risk of overheating the immediate surface being one.
FIG. 4 depicts experimental data graphically illustrating the remarkably more uniform temperature gradient established within the concrete by the microwave heating as opposed to the infrared heating and the electric blanket heating. As illustrated by the dashed line of FIG. 4, the temperature of the concrete using microwave heating is everywhere within a range of about 190� F. to about 225� F. (88� C. to 107� C.) from the surface down to a depth exceeding four inches (10 cm) and falls off at a relatively gentle gradient thereafter. By contrast, when the concrete at a depth of three inches (7.6 cm) has been heated to 185� F. (85� C.) by infrared heat, the surface temperature exceeds 320� F. (160� C.). Also for purposes of comparison, when the concrete at a depth of three inches has been heated to about 190� F. (88� C.) by electric blanket heating, the surface temperature is about 260� F. (127� C.).
Accordingly heating of the concrete base layer by microwave irradiation is far more rapid and far more uniform than in the case of heating pavement by prior techniques which require the direct application of heat as such to the surface of the concrete, and which must rely on heat conduction downwardly into the interior of the concrete.
As previously pointed out, the heating step also serves the purpose of assuring that the cement concrete is dry prior to the application of the additional layers of the composite pavement. The special properties of microwave heating may again be used to realize unique advantages in this connection. Heating of any kind promotes drying by accelerating the evaporation of water. The deep, rapid and relatively uniform heating accomplished by microwave energy promotes very rapid drying. Moreover, the inverted temperature gradient which is established in the upper portion of the concrete serves to further accelerate the migration of moisture to the surface. Water vapor pressures at various points within the heated concrete correlate with the temperature at those points. Thus the inverted temperature gradient evident in the dashed line of FIG. 4, down to a depth of about two inches (5 cm) in this instance, also gives rise to a vapor pressure gradient in which vapor pressure become progressively higher downward into the concrete for a significant distance thereby accelerating the movement of moisture vapor towards the surface.
Referring again to FIG. 2, the step of heating and drying the concrete base layer with microwave energy may be greatly facilitated by also applying a flow of hot gas to the surface of the base layer. The application of hot gas may in part precede the microwave heating or may be commenced at an intermediate time during microwave heating or thereafter.
To promote drying, it is most advantageous if some microwave heating precedes the hot gas application. The application of hot gas to the surface aids drying by accelerating the removal of water vapor which has diffused or migrated to the surface of the concrete and in addition contributes further to establishing a relatively uniform temperature gradient within the concrete. The above-discussed inverted temperature gradient in the upper region of concrete heated by microwave energy arises at least in part from the cooling effect of the evaporation of water which has been driven to the surface by the microwave heating. Owing to this evaporation heat loss, the immediate surface of the concrete may tend to be distinctly cooler than the underlying interior regions and the application of hot gas to the surface of the concrete may be used to counteract this effect to assure adequate heating of the immediate surface. However, by delaying the start of the hot gas application, the inverted temperature and vapor pressure gradient may be used to drive moisture towards the surface.
While a single-stage microwave and hot gas heating step may be employed as depicted in FIG. 2, in many instances the period required to heat the cement concrete base layer to a temperature suitable for applying the thermoplastic sealant layer is less than the period required to accomplish drying. Typically, microwave heating to the desired temperature can be accomplished in periods of the order of 5 to 10 minutes but a somewhat longer period may be required for moisture to diffuse through the concrete and be removed by the hot gas. Under such circumstances the single heating stage and drying step of FIG. 2 may be replaced with a staged or sequential series of microwave heatings and hot gas treatments as depicted in FIG. 5. An initial pre-heating step by microwave energy may be employed to heat the concrete in depth to temperatures typically within the range of about 110� F. to about 160� F. (43� C. to 71� C.). Thereafter hot gas having a temperature in the range from about 200� F. (93� C.) to about 400� F. (204� C.) may be applied to the surface of the cement concrete for a period typically ranging up to about one hour. Thereafter an additional microwave heating step may be employed to further raise the temperature of the concrete to a temperature within the range from about 170� F. to about 284� F. (77� C. to 140� C.) in preparation for the application of the thermoplastic sealant layer. Alternately the hot gas step may overlap in time either or both of the microwave heating steps.
In many instances electrical power for operating microwave sources is not available at the worksite and one or more motor generator sets of the kind having a fuel-consuming engine driving a generator are used to produce the electrical power. Substantial cost economies and fuel savings in the practice of the invention may be realized by using the hot exhaust gases of the engine which drives the generator as a source of hot gas for the steps described above. The need to burn additional fuel to produce hot gas may then be avoided at least in part.
Referring again to FIG. 2, following the heating and drying of the cement concrete base layer, the intermediate layer of thermoplastic sealant is applied to the surface of the base layer while it is still in the heated condition. The sealant material may be asphalt or other thermoplastic compositions which harden, upon cooling, into a water-impervious solid, examples of which have been previously discussed. The deeply heated condition of the concrete base layer causes the sealant material to flow readily into cracks and other surface irregularities in the base layer so that the base layer is effectively and thoroughly sealed against water intrusion after hardening of the sealant material by cooling. In some instances application of the thermoplastic sealant layer may be followed by light rolling after partial hardening of the sealant material but this is not needed in many other instances particularly where the overlayer of asphaltic concrete hot mix is promptly applied and compacted.
Following application of the sealant layer the asphaltic concrete overlayer is applied to the surface of the sealant layer and the composite pavement is compacted with a roller, tamping means or the like. The asphaltic concrete overlayer may typically have a vertical thickness from about 1 inch (2 cm) to about 31/2 inches (9 cm) although other thicknesses may be preferred in some circumstances. The asphaltic concrete overlayer may be formed by laying conventional new asphalt hot mix or, alternately, by depositing a layer of old asphalt pavement chunks recovered from a dumpsite or the like on the sealant layer and then decomposing, remixing and recompacting the old asphaltic concrete in place on the roadbed as described in the aboveidentified copending application Ser. No. 756,365.
The above-described method for forming a resealed and resealble composite pavement, starting with a cement concrete pavement, can be practiced if desired on a batch process basis at successive fixed areas of the cement concrete pavement. It is often more advantageous to utilize the method on a continuous process basis by simultaneously performing one or more of the several steps while traveling along a cement concrete pavement such as a roadway, bridge deck or the like. This not only accomplishes the formation of the composite pavement more rapidly but also avoids the problems of weak bonding in the boundary zones between areas of pavement which were laid at different times on a batch basis.
Apparatus suitable for performing the above-described method is disclosed in the above-identified copending application Ser. No. 756,365. A modification of such apparatus, specifically designed for the practice of the method of the present invention on a continuous process basis, is depicted in FIG. 6.
With reference to FIG. 6, the pavement processing apparatus 18 may include a microwave applicator vehicle 19 and an asphalt concrete paver vehicle 21 which follows closely behind vehicle 19. Although either or both of the vehicles 19 and 21 may be provided with a driving engine and drive system of a suitable known form in order to be selfpropelled, vehicle 19 in this example has a towing hitch 22 so that it may be drawn along the cement concrete roadway, bridge deck or the like 12a at a slow rate of speed by a truck, tractor or the like. The paver vehicle 21 is coupled to the back end of the microwave applicator vehicle 19 by another towing hitch 23.
The microwave applicator vehicle 19 may have a frame platform 24 riding on roadwheels 26 at both the front and back ends of the frame and carries one or more electrical motor generator sets 27 of the known form which produce electrical power by burning diesel fuel, gasoline or the like in a fuel-consuming engine. Also carried on the frame 24 is an insulated heated tank 30 for carrying liquefied sealant layer material such as asphalt or the like and a microwave generator power supply 28 which may be of known form and which is operated with electrical power from the motor generator set 27. A rectangular microwave applicator housing 29 is carried on vehicle 19 at the underside of frame 24 and extends downwardly towards the upper surface of the underlying concrete pavement 12a. The open lower end of housing 29 is spaced a small distance above the surface of the concrete to provide a small gap between the housing and the concrete for enabling travel of the vehicle without abrasion and interference.
To direct microwave energy downwardly into the underlying pavement 12a, a series of long waveguides 31 are supported within the lower portion of housing 29 and extend transversely relative to the direction of travel of the vehicle. Each waveguide 31 may be of the form known as leaky waveguides which have one or more slot openings in the underside, through which microwave energy is radiated downwardly, a leaky waveguide of this kind being disclosed in prior U.S. Pat. No. 3,263,052. Each of the waveguides 31 is excited by a magnetron tube 31a or other suitable microwave generator which may be mounted on one end of the waveguide and which is electrically coupled to power supply 28.
In the present example, four transverse waveguides 31 are present in the lower portion of applicator housing 29 with an initial closely spaced pair of the waveguides being within the forward portion of the housing while another closely spaced pair are at the rear portion of the housing and separated from forward pair by a sizable gap. As hot gas is supplied to housing 29 as will hereinafter be described in more detail, this spacing of the waveguides 31 enables the vehicle 19 to perform the staged preheating by microwave energy, followed by a period of hot gas drying, followed by additional microwave heating, as previously described with reference to FIG. 5, at each successive portion of the pavement 12a as the vehicle 19 is slowly and continuously traveled along the pavement.
To prevent the escape and broadcasting of undesirable amounts of microwave energy from the apparatus, housing 29 including all four sides and the top is formed of electrically conductive metal that has no openings with dimensions larger than a small fraction of the microwave wavelength. As an electrically conductive wall of this kind reflects microwave energy, the housing 29 prevents release of such energy in the upward and sideward directions except at the small gap between the lower edge of the housing walls and the underlying pavement. Energy which propagates downward is absorbed and attenuated in the pavement itself by being converted to heat energy primiarily within the rock aggregate which is the major constituent of concrete. While the gap between the lower edges of housing 29 and the pavement can usually be made smaller than about 1/8 of the microwave wavelength in the vertical direction, it is longer than the wavelength in the horizontal direction and microwave trapping structures are therefore needed to prevent an unacceptably high release of microwave energy at the gap if the applicator vehicle is to be operated while traveling along the pavement. For this purpose one or more of the traveling microwave trapping structures 32 disclosed in the above-identified copending application Ser. No. 756,365 may be secured to the lower portion of the housing 29. In this example the microwave trapping structures 32 are of the chain trap form containing a mass of short lengths of electrically conductive metallic chain 33 that extend downward from the outer edge of the housing 29 and drag along the surface of the underlying pavement 12a. As the openings or interstices within such a mass of chain constitute passages having transverse dimensions much smaller than the microwave wavelength, microwave energy is unable to propagate through the mass. Thus the release of significant amounts of energy at the gap between the underside of the housing and the pavement is suppressed without impeding travel of the vehicle 19 along the pavement. The trapping structures 32 include chain traps 32f and 32r at the front and rear faces of the housing 29 and side traps 32s extending along both sides of the housing to form a flexible microwave barrier around all portions of the gap between the housing and the pavement.
To apply the intermediate thermoplastic sealant layer 16a to the base layer 12a of the concrete following the microwave heating and drying, applicator vehicle 19 also carries downwardly directed spray nozzles 34 situated behind the microwave housing 29 and which may be supplied with hot liquefied sealant material such as asphalt or the like by a pump 36 which draws the liquid from insulated tank 30.
Substantial cost economies can be realized by using the hot exhaust gases of the motor generator set 27 to provide the hot gas flow within housing 29. A diesel or gasoline engine or the like as used in a motor generator set typically dissipates around 70% of the energy content of consumed fuel as waste heat. Much of this otherwise wasted heat energy is recovered and usefully utilized in the vehicle 19, by means of an insulated gas conduit 37 which receives hot exhaust gas from the exhaust pipe 38 of the motor generator set and then transmits such gas into the front and rear portions of microwave housing 29 through flow control valves 39f and 39r respectively. Another portion of the hot exhaust gas may be transmitted to sealant tank 27 through another flow control valve 39s to maintain the sealant in liquefied condition. Portions of the hot exhaust that may not be needed for these purposes may be vented to atmosphere through an exhaust flow control valve 39e.
The paver vehicle 21 which follows vehicle 19 may have an inverted boxlike frame 41 supported at the front by road wheels 42 and supported at the rear by one or more compactor rollers 43 which may if desired be of the vibratory type. In instances where it is desired to compact the intermediate sealant layer 16a prior to deposition of the hot mix for the asphaltic concrete overlayer 17a, the front road wheels 42 of paver vehicle 21 may be replaced with another such compactor roller.
In contrast to prior paver vehicles, the hopper 44 for receiving and carrying the asphaltic concrete hot mix is preferably disposed at the back of the vehicle 21. In prior paver vehicles, the hot mix receiving means is generally situated at the front so that hot mix may be delivered by dump trucks which are driven up in front of the vehicle on the as yet unsurfaced roadbed. In most cases of the practice of the present invention that mode of loading is relatively less desirable as opposed to loading from the rear. In the present method, the speed of travel of the apparatus 18 along a roadbed, bridge deck or the like may be very slow, for example in a range of about 10 to 30 feet (3 m to 9 m) per hour. If the paving and compacting vehicle 21 is spaced rearwardly from the microwave applicator vehicle 19 a distance sufficient to admit trucks at the front of the paver vehicle, intervals of as much as two to six hours would elapse between the final microwave heating step and the deposition of the asphaltic concrete overlayer 17a. Under most conditions an undesirable amount of cooling of the concrete base layer 12a and intermediate sealant layer 16a might then occur prior to the final steps of the method. While this cooling can be counteracted by employing additional heating, through the use of insulative shrouds or other means, it is advantageous in many cases to situate the paver vehicle 21 very close to the back of the microwave applicator vehicle 19 and then to load asphalt hot mix into the hopper 44 from the rear of the paver vehicle. As may be recognized, it is also possible to load from the front and to carry the hot mix rearwardly to hopper 44 across microwave applicator vehicle 19 by utilizing lengthy conveyors but this requires considerable mechanical complication of the system.
Conveyor means 46 of suitable known form is provided within frame 41 to carry asphaltic concrete hot mix downward and forward from hopper 44 and to deposit the hot mix in a layer on top of the thermoplastic sealant layer 16a as the vehicle travels along the roadway. To grade and tamp the hot mix, a screed 47 extends transversely beneath the vehicle behind the forward end of conveyor means 46. Screed 47 is coupled to the frame of the vehicle through pivotable draft arms 48 which may be selectively raised or lowered, to position the screed vertically, by means of hydraulic actuators 49 connected between the draft arms and the frame of the vehicle. The screed 47, like the previously described final compactor rollers 43, may be of the known vibratory form if desired.
The end product of the above-described method and apparatus is a composite pavement smoothly surfaced and sealed against water intrusion. Like any other pavement, deterioration in the form of cracking, rutting or the development of surface irregularities of various other forms will occur over a period of time and significant water penetration may reappear. Repeated freezing and thawing of accumulated water in the cracks then tends to aggravate and extend the deterioration. The period of time which elapses before significant deterioration occurs is variable depending on such factors as climatic conditions, intensity and nature of use of the pavement, quality of the original paving materials and the like, but may typically range from a few years to many years. Unlike conventional pavements, the composite pavement of the present invention may very quickly, easily and economically be resealed and resurfaced using little or no additional materials.
Restoration by resealing and resurfacing the composite pavement may be accomplished as depicted in FIG. 7. In particular, the deteriorated resealable composite pavement is again deeply heated and dried by irradiation with microwave energy and preferably by also subjecting the surface of the pavement to a hot gas flow in the manner previously described. The microwave irradiation heats not only the asphalt concrete overlayer and intermediate thermoplastic sealant layer but also at least an upper portion of the cement concrete base layer. The heating is continued until a temperature is reached at which the intermediate sealant layer again becomes liquid or semi-liquid and the asphaltic concrete overlayer is either decomposed by liquefaction of the asphalt binder or is at least softened. Heating is typically to temperatures in the range from about 170� to 284� F. (77� C. to 140� C.) at the upper region of the cement concrete base layer 12a, depending on the melting point of the sealant layer material. The reliquefied sealant layer material then flows into any new cracks or other voids which may have developed in the base layer of cement concrete and into any extensions of old cracks which may be present, this penetration being aided by the heated condition of the cement concrete of the base layer.
The composite pavement is then resurfaced by again compacting the pavement with a roller or tamping means while the sealant layer and the asphalt concrete layer are still in the heated condition. In addition to providing a compacted, smooth-surfaced pavement, the recompaction further aids penetration of the sealant into cracks. The result is a resealed, resurfaced composite pavement.
The above-described resealing and restoration process may be performed repeatedly at intervals following further recurrences of pavement deterioration.
The foregoing resealing and resurfacing method may be performed using the apparatus previously described with reference to FIG. 6 by inactivating the sealant layer depositing means and asphaltic concrete overlayer depositing means of the apparatus, although other equipment such as systems disclosed in copending application Ser. No. 756,365 may also be used. Alternately, the microwave applicator vehicle 19 may be used alone for this purpose, without paver vehicle 21, if it is closely followed by a conventional roller compactor vehicle or the like.
Under conditions where deterioration of the asphalt concrete overlayer is unusually severe, a more extensive restoration method may be employed as depicted in FIG. 8. The method is similar to that of FIG. 7 except that additional steps are performed between the first (heating and drying) step and the final (compaction) step. In particular, following the heating and drying step and while the asphaltic concrete overlayer remains in a heated decomposed condition, the constituents of the overlayer are remixed by tilling, scarifying, raking or a combination of such remixing processes. Pavement conditioners or additional hot mix may be added at that time if desired but are unnecessary in many cases. The hot remixed asphaltic concrete constituents are then rescreeded, after which the composite pavement is recompacted.
While the invention has been described with respect to certain specific embodiments, many modifications are possible and it is not intended to limit the invention except as defined in the following claims.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
"The student and I spent our hour editing his paper so far and discussing my suggestions for how the rest of his paper should look. He has a good "voice" in his paper and argues his point with passion; now he just needs to focus on the mechanics and usage of English in his sentences. The big issue is making sure to avoid the first- and second-person voice and making sure tenses are aligned within a sentence. Very good work overall!"
"During this session, the student and I did a close reading of a play which she is reading for her English class. We then identified themes and motifs present within the play. The student did an excellent job identifying examples of irony within the play. The student also demonstrated a keen understanding of the detrimental effects of close-mindedness, around which the play centers. For next week, I requested that the student be prepared to start compiling a study guide for her final in May."
"The student and I continued to work on his comparison/contrast essay. He reported that he did well on his novel test, so we are finishing this assignment just to practice skills in general. The student made some good revisions to his rough draft on his own, but he did not correct all of his mistakes because he was in a hurry. After I helped him to correct his errors, he recopied incorrectly, again due to hurry. He will rework this assignment to teach him to slow down and work carefully. He has done well, overall, though, so after he writes another final draft of the essay we will begin his summer reading book."
"During this, our first session, the student and I read and analyzed a short story of my choosing in order to assess his ability. Afterwards, we discussed an F. Scott Fitzgerald short story that he had read for class. The student has work to do on his analysis and I look forward to discussing "A Raisin in the Sun" with him next week."
"After a long break, due to unfortunate circumstances, the student and I met again for our first three hour session. The extended time did seem to be helpful, and we were able to cover a lot of material and questions. We started by reviewing the grammar we had already learned, and expanding upon that. We also did a writing exercise, looked at idioms and practiced using them, and discussed the material extensively. The student is great at asking questions and really studying the material to understand it."
"We developed strategies for planning and writing essays for the test-- read, underline, outline, write, reread. We read two practice passages and then answered an essay question on each. The student sometimes has difficulty identifying the key information that needs to be included in an essay, so we worked on reading the question first and making sure to underline relevant information as we read the passage."
"Yesterday the student and I worked on English vocabulary and math. He had studied his vocabulary beforehand and seemed to get most of the words, and by the end of the session he had the rest memorized. I also gave him some organization tips concerning timing his projects."
"The student had received her rough draft of her Nazi Germany essay back, so I helped her work on the final version. She corrected grammatical or spacing errors and also expanded on some of the quotes she had chosen for her essay, as one of her reviewers had suggested. She also rewrote some portions of the essay to make her points more clear. We spent a chunk of time reviewing how to cite sources both in the text and on the works cited page."
"Two vocabulary tests on Friday: English and Spanish. We made flash cards for both English and Spanish in preparation and I quizzed him extensively for both. He seemed positive and ready for both tests. We also talked about him possibly taking the preliminary entry exam over the summer to practice, and he seemed to think it was a good idea. We will talk more about it on Saturday."
"Reviewed English assignment on "Dante's Inferno". Discussed project ideas for creative assignment relating to creating one's own level of hell, focusing on what sin could be punished and what current historical figures could serve as guides and punished, reviewed terza rima rhyme scheme."
"Today, I introduced the student to 5 new American Idioms and slang terms. Furthermore, we discussed her plans for traveling to Korea and visiting her family. We talked about describing your home, along with what a perfect home would be. We also decided to use a different book for our next session. I left her with a sentence structure worksheet for homework."
"We began by looking at the essay the had written. His writing was organized and clear. He made fewer grammatical mistakes than last time. We did two exercises from the practice book, one reading and one listening. The reading was about different theories for aggression, and the listening was about an astronomical law. I reviewed with him on some of his vocabulary, and then we did some more work with conditionals. I asked him to find the definitions for 50 vocabulary words and do the short reading passages that go with them. I also gave him another essay to write for homework."

Quick Website Traffic Boosting Tips
What Google SEO is All About
Seo for Beginners
All web-designers need to optimize and rank their websites high on Google's results page: This is so since Google tops all other search engines on the internet in terms organic traffic generation: Ranking high on Google's search engine results page (SERP) is not difficult if Google SEO is followed.
On the other hand; ranking high in SERPs is not enough; you need to optimize your site for human consumption; so that your website gets the traffic and conversion rate it deserves when users are convinced to click-through into your website to find specific information or product.
So; what does Google recommend for starters? Google looks for a number of signals to determine the quality score of a website/web-page before showing relevant results in the SERP; and content is among the most important ranking signal it considers.
After all; you built that website to provide a given information or product to the internet users; and not Google's search engine: It will be needless to work hard on your SEO to rank your site high; while the content it contains is irrelevant and insufficient to those who need it.
Even if such websites with irrelevant and insufficient content ranks high due to some black hat SEO techniques; or by just effecting other ranking signals; they will always have a high bounce rate which also among the ranking factors Google considers: As users find your content useless for their needs; they click-away from your site and find another website with relevant information they need.
But; how exactly to you work on your content to get the favor from Google web crawlers??
This starters guide is broken into various parts of web-seo; both on-page and off-page SEO techniques that you need to perfect during site optimization process before embarking on extensive content marketing for high conversion rate.
A) Basic Search Engine Optimization
1. Unique and Accurate Page Titles
Web crawlers start understanding the content of your web-page right from its title: Ensure that your titles are original and accurate; stressing on the main point or idea you want to put across.
On the other hand; include researched and high ranking keywords in your titles for search engine consumption; while still making your titles catchy; having it in mind that your content is for human use.
2. Use Meta Tags and Descriptions
Meta tags and descriptions will show in the search engine results page; these are the summary of your page's content.
Your meta tags should include the main keywords you are going to exploit on the body of your web page; so that web spiders can crawl and index your page appropriately.
On the other hand; use clear and precise description to summarize your content for the humans; so that they know what to expect on your page before actually clicking through to your content.
B) Working on Site's Structure
1. URL Structure
The url structure of your web-page should be descriptive; including the main keywords: Web crawlers should be able to understand the content of your web-page form the url of that page; so that they serve the relevant web-pages to the internet users depending on the search query they use.
On the other hand; meaning full urls have a significant impact on the conversion rate; since humans will be able read them and understand the relevancy of the content; and consequently being converted into a visitor.
If you are using a content management system (CMS) such WordPress; ensure that you edit your permalinks to read exactly what the page is talking about.
Finally; your website URL should also include the main keyword in it; so that if you are a PC retailer, your website will include a PC retailer somewhere.
2. Site Navigation
Make it easy for your website's visitor to navigate around: Provide links to all your pages using relevant anchor tags; so that your visitors get more information concerning relevant topics you have written about on other pages.
C) Content Optimization
1. Offer Quality and Unique Content
Having it in mind that content is king; strive to offer original and quality contents that cannot be found anywhere else.
Before creating your contents and publishing them; ensure that you do sufficient keyword research using keyword tools available on the internet such as the Google Keyword Planner found in AdWords account.
While creating your content; be sure to use your researched keywords naturally throughout the page to maintain a good flow; and also to avoid spamming the search engines.
2. Use Anchor Text
Using your keywords as anchor text; provide links to the pages within your website; with relevant topics as the anchor text.
On the other hand; if necessary, you can provide links using these keywords as anchor text linking to other relevant sites; with good reputation and quality content to offer more insight to your visitors
Avoid linking to irrelevant sites with low quality content as this will hurt your web-page ranking; or even worse the whole website ranking.
3. Optimize Page Visibility Using Images
Web crawlers are in love with images; utilize images on your web-pages so that they are fully optimized for search engine consumption.
Use image description and caption text boxes to describe what your web-page content is all about; ensuring that you include all the necessary keywords you expect to rank high for.
Use quality and large images on your web-page as these are always doing better in search engine results page.
On the other hand; be sure to use your own images; or buy from sites selling images online; or otherwise find the rights to use free images from sites like Google Images offering images and photos for free use.
Make sure you read and understand the terms of use of all images you find on the net to avoid legal charges against you.
4. Make Use of Headings
Separating your content into different heading has a significant impact on both search engine and human optimization.
Provide headings and sub-headings with quality and relevant keywords depending on the topic of that heading or sub-heading.
If you are using plain HyperText Markup Language (HTML); utilize in your content page the H1, H2, H3 and so on; so that emphasis is made depending on the importance of the keywords on your titles and sub-titles.
D) Optimize Your Site for Web-Crawlers
1. The Robots Exclusion Protocol (Robots.txt)
Web-designers/developers use this file to direct the web-crawlers on how they should crawl and index their web-pages.
However; using robots.txt needs sufficient web-development expertise; as it can extremely harm your web-pages visibility if not used correctly.
Ensure that you locate robot.txt files in the top-level directory of your web-server for it to function as it should; otherwise, you will compromise your site's crawling by the search engine robots.
2. Using rel="nofollow"
Similar to Robot.txt; using rel="nofollow" requires extra care. This nofollow attribute is used to direct web-crawlers on which links not to follow and crawl on a web-page.
Some web-designers use this attribute to discourage spamming; or if the content of the page is not for public view.
Whichever reason you use it for, ensure that you counter-check your links so that you don't use nofollow attribute inappropriately and prevent search engine robots from crawling your important web-pages.
E) Mobile SEO
The majority of internet users today use mobile phones and other hand-held device to access information from the internet.
You need to notify Google crawlers of the mobile version of your website so that it is optimized for the users using mobile devices to search for information through the search engine.
On the other hand; ensure that you use mobile friendly images; and give clear directives on how to use the site with mobile devices.
If you are using a CMS like WordPress; ensure that your website is responsive by using WordPress themes that are mobile optimized; and can re-size to fit on small screens as well.
F) Promote and Analyze your Site
1. Content Marketing
Now that you have satisfied Google's SEO recommendations and most probably your site is enjoying high rankings; embark on extensive content marketing to promote your website's contents.
For you to convert more visitors into leads, so that your site's conversion rate remains high every time; taking your site to the top in SERP is not enough; and without effective content marketing strategy; your site's performance will be compromised.
2. Website Analysis
Analyzing your site's performance will assist you to calculate your return on investment (ROI); whether your SEO efforts are rewarded effectively.
There are a number of website analytic tools out there; Google Analytics being one of them with a number of features to analyze your site's performance.
On the other hand; utilize free Google Webmaster tools to get more insight about your page visits; and a number of data that will help you evaluate your ROI.
Getting your SEO right for high Google ranks is that simple: And since Google is the biggest search engine in the internet; all major search engines such as Yahoo and Bing will like your content and rank your website higher.

"I didn't go to university because I couldn't go - I hated school work so much that I didn't do any. This is why the OU is so important - there must be so many children, who like me are smart but dumb, who have within them the latent ability to study but are prevented in some way.
"Both consciously and unconsciously I thought that there was an awful lot of life fenced off from me by a high-flown vocabulary and by an elite group of people who were much cleverer than I was. As I became older I became aware that it wasn't true. I am more radical now about education than I was as a young man. Like the Open University, I want to see improved access to education. I want doors kicked down and people called to account about what they are doing.
"If there is a common thread that has run through my work - and it has not been a conscious one - it is that itch I have always had to know more stuff. How do you know who you are unless you know where you have come from? How do you know who we are unless you know about the movement of peoples, geography, language?
"I love history and archaeology - I love the scraping and probing side of archaeology and I love the narrative side of history. I have always been a storyteller so Time Team was a dramatic way for me to bring two of my passions together.
"I am passionate about ordinary people because that is the stock I have come from. Most of history's great narratives are by people who think of themselves as the great movers and shakers. What I try and do is to tell that story, but to see it from the perspective of the people whose skills made those narratives happen, but whose names we don't necessarily know."
Tony Robinson is currently making a new series of The Worst Jobs in History, which features Italian immigrants who tarmacked Britain's streets in the 18th century and Roman slave boys who prepared food that made the Romans sick. He says that one day "when all this merry-go-round comes to a halt" he will sign up for an OU course.Reuse content
