Shore Hardness Resistance of a (polymer) surface to deformation. The different hardness measures applied for characterising polymers are: (a) Shore hardness (two scales, A for softer and D for harder materials) (b) Ball indentation hardness (also useable on profiled surfaces because of bigger measuring device). (c) Vickers hardness (normally used for steel) | |
Slip agent type of additive, which provides surface lubrication to the polymer during and after conversion; especially important for films. Usual slip agents are amides of fatty acids. | |
Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC, also called Gel Permeation Chromatography, GPC) is used to separate dissolved polymer molecules according to their coil diameter in solution. The chromatograms can be converted to molar mass distributions, which is an important parameter because it has a significant effect on the physical, mechanical and rheological properties of a polymer. It is also possible to calculate the average molar masses, Mn, Mv, Mw and Mz, and when on-line viscometric detection is used, to study long chain branching (LCB) and its distribution. | |
Solution Viscometry In Solution Viscometry the rate at which a dilute polymer solution flows through a capillary is measured. Temperature and concentration of the polymer are carefully controlled. The parameter most often determined by dilute solution viscometry is intrinsic viscosity. Intrinsic viscosity is related to molar mass through a semi-empirical relationship called Mark-Houwinks equation. | |
Shear thinning A behaviour where the viscosity decreases when the shear stress increases. Typically broadening of the molecular weight distribution increases shear thinning. | |
Supercritical state The critical state of a fluid is when the liquid and gas phase both have the same density. The fluid is then at its critical temperature, critical pressure, and critical volume. When the pressure or temperature exceeds this, the fluid is in its supercritical state. The loop reactor in the BORSTAR process is operated in supercritical state for some products. | |
Sheeting Formation of sheet-like agglomerates in the gas phase reactor. | |
Single Site Catalysts | |
Scanning Electron Microscopy In Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) a focused beam of electrons scans across the surface of the sample. It is detected synchronously to the position of the scanning electron beam and recorded in an image storage device. Differencies in the topography of the sample give rise to the differencies in the intensities of the signals formed by the secondary electrons in the detector resulting in a three dimensional image. Scanning electron microscopy is suited to most types of surface morphology studies. Rough topographic features, void content and particle agglomerations are easily revealed as well as the compositional differencies within material. Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) or Wavelength Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (WDS) in conjunction with SEM allows elemental analyses to be performed directly over the surface of the sample. | |
Shrinkage Decrease of dimension, created by the introduction of internal stress to the material during processing and cooling, or by ageing and post-crystallisation processes. |

The literal meaning of lithotripsy is the "act of breaking stones." There are two forms of lithotripsy available for use in veterinary medicine: electrohydraulic shock-wave lithotripsy (EHL) and extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL). With EHL, a shock-wave is generated immediately adjacent to a urolith within the urinary bladder. In dogs, nephroliths ...

Best of Total Beauty: All Our Best Beauty Product Stories in One Place
Mitchum Powder Fresh Clear Gel For Women
Only stuff I use...
I have been using this product for years! It just works! And I'm never self-conscious about sweating or being the "smelly kid".
November 12, 2008
Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner
Stays in Place...
When I was first introduced to gel liner, I was a bit skeptical. However when I stopped by the Bobbi Brown counter they quickly showed me the best way to apply it and I was sold. Now if you are used to eyeliner pencils, this will take some adjusting to., but the more you use the better you will get! I have the black gel liner and the graphite shimmer. The black liner is great to use at night for smoky eyes and the graphite shimmer is great for day or night. This liner lasts all day long! I find putting the liner on and than going over it with a dark eyeshadow keeps it in place!
November 12, 2008
Just started using and I'm addicted..
I've noticed my hair being a little flat lately! So I figured it's time to invest in a Volumizer Spray. I typically shy away from mouse or gel. I did a little research and found some reviews on some random websites that turned me on to this spray. I Love it! It keeps your hair light and non-sticky. I was afraid it would make my blonde hair greasy when spraying directly on the roots. Not the case at all. I plan on using this product for a while. Plus you actually get a large bottle for the price!
November 12, 2008
Ole Henriksen Ultimate Lift Eye Gel
Worth the price!
My favorite Eye Gel! You can actually feel it tighten around the eye. Not in a scary/drying kind of way. It just literally feels like your eyes are getting a lift. I especially like to use in the morning for a little wake up call! The price is high but it actually lasts a very long time. So don't let the cost intimidate you. We are afterall talking about our eyes! We need to keep them in tip top shape!
November 12, 2008
Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact
Who doesn't own a shimmer brick?
First of all, they just grab your attention when you're browsing the makeup section, don't they?? 2nd it lasts forever! I don't even remember when I bought my latest one. I primarily use it as an eyeshadow but works as a highlighter. Great for when your on the go...
November 12, 2008
Compliments Too!
I'm not a perfume girl. I actually started wearing it after my sister bought it. I never paid attention to what I was wearing or anyone else for that matter. But I always get compliments with this stuff. I figure why mess with a good thing! I'll keep on spraying!!
November 12, 2008
Origins Faux Glow Radiant Self-Tanner
Just wish I got more bang for my buck!
I truly love this product. Instant color and I'm always receiving comments of how I look like I just got back from the beach. Just wish the I received a larger bottle for the price! I would rate it higher but I get frustrated with the small bottle! I guess I'm being greedy! ;-)
November 12, 2008
My sister and I use this after every shower and before combing out our hair. It's a great detangler and really helps take care of your hair. I've been using it for years. I love that's it cheap and I can use as much as I want!!
November 12, 2008
C.O. Bigelow Lip Formula SPF 15
Best Lip Balm Ever!
I don't leave home without one stashed in my purse! Hydrates your lips without being sticky. Great to use under lipsticks/glosses or simply by itself!
November 12, 2008
Same great gloss without the tin...
Always loved Cargo's lipglosses, just couldn't work with those large tins. Too much of a hassle. Great colors!! Not waxy or sticky! Always good to have around.

Green Lawn Pleated Top
I guess it's all about the clothes for me this week! Here's another one of my Spring Tops, as part of my ongoing Spring Top Sewalong. The sewalong will wrap up soon (on Monday), so if you're still thinking about it, now's the time!
This top was made with a lovely lightweight green lawn I found at Mood in NYC last fall. It's based on the same pattern as another pleated top I posted last fall, but without the elastic shirring and with an added band at the bottom.
I wore it last week for four days straight. Not because I love it so much that I couldn't wear anything else (though I do like it!!! A LOT!!), but actually just because I kept putting it on in the morning, thinking I would find time to take pictures in it, but then never did. Mr Rae was probably starting to wonder.
Works nicely with the red moccasins that I both love and hate because they always turn my feet and socks bright red. I ruined a white skirt last week by accidentally leaving the skirt sitting on top of the shoes. BAH. I like the combination of red and green together, even if it might be a little Christmasy. Anyway, do you guys know how to sew pleats? It's so ridiculously easy!! I'll have to show you how sometime.
Want to join in? Spring Top Sewalong is almost over, so add your tops to the pool! See this post for guidelines.

Great top! I love the whole outfit actually. You make me wish I was at home sewing right now.
Did you make the jeans as well?
Kelly says:
Your blouse is SO CUTE! I would love to learn how to sew pleats.
Cate says:
I really like this shirt. Green is my favorite color! Very cool design with the pleats, and I love the banded bottom.
Sarah says:
I love this! Do you know of a specific pattern that would help me make something similar?
Mary says:
Cute blouse! Treat your mocs with a couple coats of suede protector. That should help stop the dye from rubbing off.
Jennifer says:
Super cute top– actually I've been loving them all. I've only ever made one top, but I think it is time for another. Thanks for the inspiration!
Deborah says:
This top is crazy cute–love the band at the bottom, and I always love a gathered cuff. And lawn! How luxurious for summer!
Becky says:
Love the green, but could help but notice your awesome watch. Do you mind me asking what kind it is.
Mel says:
One of the best tops you've made! Any chance you've rethought the idea of turning this one into a pattern?
Claire says:
Absolutely love this – style and colour both perfect! Please please do us a pattern for this
Mel says:
Since I saw your pics this morning I've been thinking about making a top like this ALL DAY so I just had to come back and say: 'please, please, please do a pattern'!
Sherri says:

Pope St. Clement I
Patron of Marble-Workers
Died: 100?
Little is known of this apostolic father beyond a few facts. He was a disciple of S. Peter, and perhaps of S. Paul. It is thought that the Clement whom S. Paul praises as a faithful fellow- worker, whose name is written in the Book of Life [Philippians 4:3], was Clement, afterwards bishop of Rome. But there is great difficulty in admitting this supposition. It is certain that Clement, the idol of the Petrine party in the Primitive Church, about whom their myths and traditions circled lovingly, was quite removed in feeling from the Pauline party.
According to Tertullian, Clement succeeded S. Peter immediately in the episcopal government of the Church at Rome. But in the list of bishops given us by Irenaeus and Eusebius he occupies the third place after the apostle, that is, after Linus and Cletus (Anacletus). It is, however, probable that the Church at Rome had at first two successions, one Petrine, the other Pauline, but that they speedily merged into one; and this will account for the confusion in the lists of the first bishops of Rome. Clement probably was Petrine, and Cletus Pauline bishop, the former ruling the converted Jews, the latter the Gentile converts. We know nothing of the events of his pontificate, except that there was a schism at Corinth, which drew forth a letter from him which is preserved. S. Jerome and S. Irenaeus do not say that he died a martyr's death, but Rufinus and Zosimus give him the title of martyr; but this title by no means implies that he had died for the faith; it had anciently more extended signification than at present, and included all who had witnessed a good confession, and suffered in any way for their faith.
This is all that we know of S. Clement. But imagination has spun a web of romance about his person.
The Clementine Recognitions and Homilies are an early romance representing the disputation of S. Peter and Simon Magus; they have a story running through them to hold the long disquisitions together, of which S. Clement is the hero. It is, however, pure romance, with, perhaps, only this basis of truth in it, that Clement is represented as the devoted adherent and disciple of S. Peter. The Clementines are thoroughly anti-Pauline, as are also the Apostolic Constitutions, in which again S. Clement appears prominently.
The legend of the martyrdom of S. Clement relates that, in the reign of Trajan, when Mamertinus was prefect of the city, and Toractianus count of the offices, a sedition arose among the rabble of Rome against the Christians, and especially against Clement, bishop of Rome. Mamertinus interfered to put down the riot, and having arrested Clement, sent him to the emperor, who ordered his banishment to Pontus, where he was condemned to work in the marble quarries. He found many Christians among his fellow-convicts, and comforted and encouraged them. The only spring of drinking water was six miles off, and it was a great hardship to the convicts to have to fetch it all from such a distance. One day Clement saw a lamb scraping at the soil with one of its forefeet. He took it as a sign that water was there; dug, and found a spring.
As Clement succeeded in converting many pagans, he was sent to Aufidianus, the prefect, who ordered him to be drowned in the sea with an old anchor attached to his neck. His body was recovered by his disciple Phoebus. The relics of S. Clement were translated to Constantinople (860) by S. Cyril on his return from his mission to the Chazars, whilst engaged in the Chersonese on his Sclavonic translation of the Gospels. Some of the relics found their way to Rome, and were deposited in the church of San Clemente, where they are still reverently preserved. These consist of bones, some reddened earth, a broken vase containing some red matter, a little bottle similarly filled, and an inscription stating that these are the relics of the Holy Forty Martyrs of Scilita, and also of Flavius Clement.
In art S. Clement of Rome is represented as a Pope with an anchor at his side. [His death is placed at about 100 A.D.]

I read about the "Lives of the Saints" by Rev. Hugo Hoever (whoever?) every day along with my "Christian Prayer" and for some reason I was especially curious about Saint Clement so I looked him up on line. I want to thank you for your hard work of putting all these saints on line for the people to see.

Dear Pope and martyr, St. Clemente your life exemplified your sacred teachings, which brought many to believe in Christ. Dear Jesus we thank you for your early saints, who together with Sts Peter and Paul gave us the Christian faith. I thank all my beloved ancestors who received the faith from the apostle St. Thomas. I truly believe that this is the greatest treasure, gift, marvel that I can ever receive. But that is not for me alone, Bless all my descendants, posterity that they may safeguard the treasure of our holy Belief. I ask, implore, petition you dear Saint for this. That in answer to your prayers, I may in my lifetime see and witness turning back to Jesus and His beloved Mother. Amen.

Mark Boughton Photography / styling by Teresa Blackburn http://pgoarelish2.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/17047_roasted_chciken_w_wine.jpg PrintEmail In the summer of 1987, late in the afternoon before opening day of Hamersley's Bistro in Boston's South End, Gorgon Hamersley was still up in the air about his menu. He knew roast chicken in one form or another belonged on a bistro menu but had trouble coming up with a recipe. He tried herb butters and bacon wraps, bot nothing seemed to work. Finally Hamersley and his sous chef had an idea. They made a parsley paste, rubbed in on the birds and set them aside to marinate overnight. The next day, they broiled the chicken until the skin was crisp and brown so that when it arrived at the table, the herby paste was transformed into a delectable crust. Two months after Hamersley's Bistro opened, a restaurant critic ordered the Roast Chicken with Garlic, Lemon and Parsley and was so carried away he telephoned Hamersley to prepare him for the response to his rave review. "Go buy more chickens," he told Hamersley. The rest, as they say, is history. Over the last 25 years, Hamersley figures he's served more than 350,00 roast chickens. Some customers order it every time they eat at the restaurant. Occasionally Hamersley talks about taking it off the menu, but whenever he does, people complain. "All hell breaks loose," he says. —By Jean Kressy, a food writer in Ashburnham, Mass. (10/08) Looking for more classic chicken dishes?

Max Lorenz (tenor)
Max Lorenz (born Max Sülzenfuß; 10 May 1901 – 11 January 1975) was a German heroic tenor famous for Wagner roles.
Lorenz was born in Düsseldorf, and studied with Ernst Grenzebach in Berlin in the 1920s. He made his debut at the Semperoper in Dresden in 1927, becoming a principal tenor. From 1929 to 1944 he was a member of the ensemble at the Berlin State Opera, appearing also at the New York Metropolitan Opera (1931–34), the Bayreuth Festspielhaus (1933–39, 1952, 1954) and the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden (1934 and 1937). He sang, too, at the Vienna State Opera (1929–33, 1936–44, 1954).
Audiences at the Salzburg Festival also heard him, and he created roles in such post-World War II works as Gottfried von Einem's Der Prozess (Josef K, 1953), Rolf Liebermann's Penelope (1954) and Rudolf Wagner-Régeny's Das Bergwerk zu Falun (1961).
Lorenz's operatic and recital career lasted almost three decades. He became known as one of the world's leading heldentenors, particularly renowned for his performances as Tristan, Walther and Siegfried (in Siegfried and Götterdämmerung). He was also a notable Otello, Bacchus and Herod.
At his best in the 1920s and 1930s, Lorenz possessed a powerful, ringing voice which he used in an impassioned manner. Some of his recordings of operatic arias have been issued on CD. Notably, he was recorded live in a performance of Die Meistersinger at the Bayreuth Festival, under the baton of the celebrated conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler.
Personal life[edit]
Lorenz was homosexual, but from 1932 he was married to Charlotte (Lotte) Appel, who was Jewish and was aware of his homosexuality. His homosexuality was almost tolerated by the Nazis as a well-known secret. When Lorenz had to appear in court because of an affair with a young man, Hitler advised Winifred Wagner, the director of the Bayreuth Festival, that Lorenz would not be suitable for the Festival. Wagner answered that in that case she might close the Festival because, without Lorenz, "Bayreuth can't be done."[1]
As for his Jewish wife, Lorenz insisted on being open about his marriage, which was taken as a provocation by the Nazis. When Lorenz was away from his house, the SS burst in and tried to take his wife and mother-in-law away. At the last moment, they were prevented from doing so when Lotte Lorenz was able to make a phone call to the sister of Hermann Göring. The SS was ordered to leave their residence and not to bother the two women. Göring stated in a letter of 21 March 1943 that Lorenz was under his personal protection and that no action should be taken against him, his wife, or her mother.[1]
Max Lorenz died in Salzburg and is buried at the Zentralfriedhof in Vienna (group 40, grave 37).[2][3]

ruffle curtain: take 2
I got this idea in my head to do another ruffle curtain, but this time use it as a headboard on a twin bed. And when I saw this lovely shade of gray in the sheet aisle at walmart...I could resist. This is done with a set of queen flat sheets, rather than the twin sheet from the previous tutorial. The finished piece will measure about 80 x 49 inches give or take. I also went ahead and re-did my original tutorial and put it into a pdf so you can easily download it and print it off if you'd like (I just hope it works now).
Ruffle Curtain
Enjoy and if you make one, I'd love to hear how it turned out, especially if it's in a nursery...I just think it would be so cute in a baby girl's room.

First of all, I LOVE PUGS SO MUCH. My mom and dad have two and I swear one day I will own my own little snotty snorter.
Second, love these as curtains! Once our house is done (january!!) these will absolutely be going in my daughter's room, maybe in different colors...Maybe the grey though?? Her room is lavender and blue thus far (meaning, that's the color of the quilt and sheets we've bought!) so we'll see what wal-mart sheets inspire me..
Thanks for posting this! I LOVE easy stuff. And the dogs :) - November 4, 2011 at 9:41 AM

Quick question. If you started with a main body panel of 102 x 64.75 and ended up with a finished curtain size of 80 by 49, how did you loose so much length and width? I understanding hemming the bottom, sides, and the 3" rod pocket at the top, but that should only equal a loss of 1" on the width, and 5" on the length. You have lost 22" in the length and 15.75 on the width. Where does it go?

I love how you said that it would be cute in a little girl's nursery because that is exactly what I am going to do!! before seeing your blog I had the idea and even already bought the wal-mart sheets:) I was looking for some tips and tricks other than what was in my head and found your post and this will help me perfectly!! I think the only difference I will make is I purchased a black out curtain panel($10 each at WM) as the base instead of another sheet so that it will be dark when closed for a nursery. Thanks so much for posting!

I've been lookin everywhere for ruffled curtains, and they are god awful expensive! So glad I found this. I too am impatient and only know the basics as far as sewing. I'm going to try this for my little girl's room! If I don't like it I'm only out 5 bucks, which eases the pressure a little bit. We just moved in so we still have to paint etc. but when we get it done I'll be sure to send you a picture. Thanks so much for this!

We want to do this for a craft day with a bunch of ladies! (yeah) and I just want to make sure I understand this, two sheets (either twin or queen) will make 1 curtain? could you possibly make two curtains form a queen set?

Abbas's gamble
By JPOST EDITORIAL
02/25/2013 23:14
In the best case, rioting in the W. Bank could gain the attention of the US and Europe, but it could also deteriorate into a third intifada.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas at PLO meeting in West Bank, January 29, 2013.

The unfortunate death of Arafat Jaradat, a Palestinian arrested last week for throwing rocks at Israeli cars, has triggered violence in flashpoints around the West Bank.
An autopsy performed by the Health Ministry found that Jaradat died on Saturday of heart failure and that signs of violence on his body, including broken ribs, were from resuscitation attempts.
But the Palestinian Authority, in an apparent attempt to escalate tensions, declared that Jaradat had been tortured to death at Megiddo Prison, where he was being held.
Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigade, a Fatah-linked terrorist group, vowed to avenge Jaradat's death, which has become another source of rage for Palestinians already demonstrating in solidarity with four hunger-striking security prisoners and in particular against Israel's decision to rearrest two terrorists who had been released in the October 2011 Gilad Schalit prisoner swap. Kadoura Fares, a former PA minister and the head of the Palestinian Prisoner's Club, warned of a third intifada.
The present unrest coincides with the 19th anniversary of Baruch Goldstein's despicable murder of 29 Muslim worshipers and wounding of 125 more on Purim day 1994 during a mosque prayer at the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron. Nearly every Purim since has been marred by Palestinian terrorist attacks, demonstrations and unrest. The stage is set for an explosive situation.
And PA President Mahmoud Abbas might be interested in escalating violence ahead of US President Barack Obama's visit to the region. Scenes of rioting in Palestinian towns across the West Bank on the eve of the US president's arrival might push the Palestinian issue back on the top of the White House's agenda for the region. For some time, the bloody civil war in Syria, the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and Iran's push for nuclear weapons have eclipsed the Palestinian cause.
Abbas has rightly perceived that the relative calm in the West Bank – thanks in large part to strong security coordination between Israel and the PA – has made the US, the Europeans and many Israelis complacent about the need for peace talks.
Still, Abbas must realize the danger of fanning the flames of violence. If the riots, which so far have been mostly restricted to smaller villages around Hebron, does indeed spread to cities such as Ramallah and Nablus and greater numbers of Palestinians take to the street, the situation could deteriorate into a third intifada.
There are more radical elements within Fatah which would like to see this happen as a means of usurping Abbas's power.
Though there is little Abbas can do to stop the riots, he could rein in the Fatah leaders who are encouraging escalation.
Meanwhile, our security forces, which have been tasked with containing the violence and preventing demonstrators from blocking major roads, must also avoid using extreme force and refrain from unnecessary confrontations.
Perhaps the unrest on the West Bank will temporarily push the Palestinian issue higher up on the foreign policy agendas of the Americans and the Europeans. But the real obstacles to peace remain unchanged.
Palestinian leadership remains divided between Hamas in the Gaza Strip and Fatah in the West Bank.
Neither can claim to represent the entire Palestinian people. Further weakening the legitimacy of Palestinian political leadership is the fact that no democratic elections have been held since 2006.
The elections that were supposed to take place in 2009 have repeatedly been delayed. Abbas, whose term has expired, has no mandate from his people to make concessions to Israel and Hamas would never dream of making concessions.
Placing the Palestinian issue back on the Western world's agenda by instigating violence on the West Bank might change perceptions but will not change the underlying causes of the stalled peace process.
In the best scenario from Abbas's point of view, limited rioting could get the US and Europe to renew pressure on Israel. But if he plays his hand wrong and the unrest deteriorates into a third intifada, Abbas could lose control of the situation, lose the presidency and ruin any chances for peace for years to come.
