SATURDAY SIX: Top Six Theme Park Water Rides in Orlando
This week's SATURDAY SIX covers the Top Six Theme Park Water Rides in Orlando. Water rides at the parks, you either love 'em or you hate 'em. We here at the Saturday Six happen to love them and are glad we have so many great ones to choose from in Orlando. These rides can be just the thing to cool you off on one of those Florida days where it feels like you are walking on the surface of the sun, and as a side benefit they can be incredibly fun! Today we are going to look at the top six and we'll start with…
# 6 – Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls (Islands of Adventure)
Located in Toon Lagoon in Islands of Adventure, Dudley Do-Rights Ripsaw Falls is based on the old Jay Ward cartoons which – like many of the characters in Toon Lagoon – have been mostly lost to time. This is unfortunate, as many of Ward's creations (Aesop's Fables, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Peabody and Sherman) were years ahead of their time, containing sophisticated humor and satire that children and adults could enjoy. While Ripsaw Falls is filled with the trademark humor (and puns) of the cartoon it is based on, thanks to budget and time constraints under which it was built, it doesn't have the "wow" factor of animatronics or the immersive scenery that some other rides on this list brings to the table. What it does have is an amazing facade, several decent drops, and one great one at the end. The final drop of Ripsaw Falls can hang with any flume ride, but Ripsaw Falls doesn't end there….
SATURDAY SIX: Six Things in Orlando We're Looking Forward To Seeing in 2014
This week's SATURDAY SIX looks at Six Things in Orlando We're Looking Forward To Seeing in 2014. 2013 was a great year to be a theme park fan. Just in Orlando we got the opening of Transformers: The Ride 3D and a huge Simpsons expansion in Universal Studios Florida, Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin arrived at SeaWorld, while Disney introduced Princess Fairytale Hall and the incredible Tangled-themed bathrooms at the Magic Kingdom (along with starting a much needed overhaul on Downtown Disney.) But the good news is 2014 looks to be even better, yes, better. Here's our list of the top six things we're looking forward to the most over the next 12 months…
# 6 – Universal CityWalk's Expansion (Universal Orlando Resort)
In late 2013 Universal unveiled a massive reimagining of its entertainment complex, CityWalk. In fact, the new and improved CityWalk had already started with the opening of Red Oven Pizza Bakery in November, but little did we know how much more would be coming.
By the summer of 2014, Coldstone Creamery (ice cream), Menchies (frozen yogurt), Bread Box (sandwiches), Antojitos (Mexican), Hotdog Hall of Fame, and The Cowfish (burgers/sushi) will be joining the list of eateries in CityWalk. Pastamore, which is shutting down this week, will also be reopening as yet-unamed Italian restaurant (rumored to be Pranzo) in which guests will be able to see their pasta made from scratch in front of them. Starbucks, currently on the second level of CityWalk, will also be moving downstairs and assume a more prominent position as guests make their way from the Universal parking garages to the theme parks. Lastly, the Universal Studios Store will undergo a major retheming.

Wayne Rooney: Eden Hazard keen for striker to join Chelsea
Eden Hazard would relish the chance to play alongside Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney at Chelsea.
There is speculation about the future of the 27-year-old England striker who in May stated his desire to leave United, although new manager David Moyes insists he is not for sale.
"Rooney would be a brilliant signing. He's a great player who has the experience and he's still only young, at 27," the Chelsea midfielder said.

"But it's not up to me."
Hazard, 22, also revealed that Jose Mourinho, who returned to Chelsea for a second stint this summer after leaving Real Madrid, tried to sign him when he was just 19 and still at French club Lille.
"He told me he'd asked Lille, but I wanted to stay there until I was 21 and develop my game," said Hazard, who moved to Stamford Bridge last summer in a reported £32m deal.
"I must have been 19 or 20 at the time. Real Madrid is a wonderful team, but I had so much still to prove in the French league. I stayed because I didn't want to leave too early."
Mourinho won two Premier League titles in 2005 and 2006 during his first spell at Chelsea which ended in September 2007.
Hazard is confident that with the Portuguese in charge they will win more silverware and their first league title since 2010.
"With him in charge, we can win matches and claim trophies," he said.
"His arrival is important certainly. But it won't be him who actually goes out there and wins the title.
"We have to concentrate on what he wants of us and, if we all give 100%, we have a real chance of winning the title.
"Wayne Rooney is not for sale. He's a Manchester United player and will remain a Manchester United player. Wayne won't be sold."
"Of course there'll be big rivals out there but we have a real chance this year. And, with a good manager in place, our chances are even greater."
Another player the Blues have been linked with is Belgium striker Christian Benteke. The 22-year-old, who scored 19 league goals last season, has handed in a transfer request at Aston Villa.
Midfielder Hazard believes his compatriot is ready for a move to a big club.
"He had an unbelievable first season for a young striker in the Premier League," Hazard added.
"His dream is to play even higher. I think he's got all the attributes to do well at a big club."

Not at all, I am happy as anything that Chelsea will struggle to stay on the legal side of FFP.
and I would be even happier if Abramovich got fed up and jumped ship, as he couldn't sign other teams key players...
Better still if Chelsea were sanctioned for rule breaking under FFP. They are a leopard who 'has' to change it's spots...

it's a non starter, Chelsea awake to Financial Fair Play eventually and indeed Mourinho cost a pretty penny over the odds, and indeed they have to sell, in order to buy, so unless they have players Manure want then it will fall through.
I love it, at last Chelsea have to tread carefully, after inflating the market for so long. So much for Mourhino's bravado -
he'd love an open checkbook

HTC One M8
The HTC One M8 is currently sitting atop our "best mobile phones in the world" ranking, nudging the Galaxy S5 into second place and making it the phone to beat in 2014.
Does the Sony Xperia Z2 topple the M8? Honestly, no. As a complete package the One M8 wins out, but the Z2 still has a couple of things over its Taiwanese rival.
A lot has been said about the camera on the M8, and in a straight spec shootout the Xperia Z2 beats it hands down with a 20.7MP snapper versus a lowly 4MP offering.
The Z2 camera doesn't bring anything particularly new to the table though, while the M8 has the innovative Duo Camera setup and a much faster image processing time.
4K video recording is just a distant dream with the HTC, while the Xperia Z2 can pull out some of the best footage you'll see shot on a smartphone.
When it comes to interface, performance and design however the One M8 offers up the better experience. If the camera isn't a huge deal breaker for you then the M8 is the better option, but if you fancy a reliable snapper the Z2 is the way to go.
- Read our HTC One M8 review
Samsung Galaxy S5
The Samsung Galaxy S5 is the best flagship the company has produced to date, and independent screen testing firm DisplayMate said it has the best display it has ever tested.
Things are looking good in the Samsung camp, and with a fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor to help it stand out from the crowd it has a group of features to shout about. Something the Xperia Z2 rather lacks.
While Samsung may well have packed a whole heap of tech into the Galaxy S5 a compromise had to be made somewhere. Build quality.
The Galaxy S5 is undoubtedly plastic, and it severely lacks the premium appeal of the Xperia Z2. Both handsets are waterproof, so it's not like the S5 can use that as an argument.
It's features versus form here, which one is more important to you?
- Read our Samsung Galaxy S5 review
iPhone 5S
All the latest flagship smartphones are big. Some people would even call them huge. So what's left for those who want a top of the line handset which isn't going to overstretch their palms?
Top of the pile is the iPhone 5S, with a premium design only really matched by the HTC One M8, although the Xperia Z2 is hot on the heels of both of the handsets.
The 4-inch display on the iPhone 5S is a rather disappointing 640 x 1136 affair, no where near as stunning as the full HD Xperia Z2.
Its more compact design and lower weight (it's only 112g vs the 163g Z2) means the iPhone 5S is far more palm friendly, especially for those with smaller hands.
It is rocking older tech, with an 8MP camera, dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM and no 4K video recording to go with that sub-par screen.
Plus it still costs a pretty penny - the same as the Xperia Z2 - which isn't great value for money when compared.

Hurricane Bells Radio
After touring in support of LongwaveGÇÖs fourth album, Secrets Are Sinister, frontman Steve Schiltz took some time off to record a solo set of songs. The music was mellow, nocturnal, and atmospheric, a far cry from Longwave's steamroller indie rock. Working quickly, Schiltz recorded the material in his basement -- pulling triple duty as composer, musician, and sound engineer -- and prepared to release an album under the moniker Hurricane Bells. Two months before the albumGÇÖs scheduled release, though, GÇ£MonstersGÇ¥ appeared on the platinum-selling soundtrack to [RoviLink="VW"]New Moon, the second installment of the popular [RoviLink="VW"]Twilight movie series. The resulting attention transformed Hurricane Bells from a small side project into a genuine buzz band, and Schiltz spent the bulk of 2010 touring behind the group's debut, Tonight Is the Ghost. ~ Andrew LeaheyPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Police are on the lookout for the robbery suspects who drove off after robbing workers who were putting cash into an ATM at the McAlpin Square shopping center, which is located at 1900 E. Victory Dr.
The FBI has taken over the investigation. Two men from Loomis were at the Wells Fargo ATM to put cash into the machine when two or possibly three men took the cash and took off in a car. Police said weapons were shown. The Loomis workers were uninjured. Police aren't giving the description of the suspects' car, but they are searching for the suspects. A helicopter is searching the area by air.

Lord Patten really must stop being so humble and modest
It remains one of the greatest mysteries of our age: why is Chris Patten so modest and lacking in confidence? For years his friends have been urging him to stop hiding his light under the proverbial bushell. "Chris," they say over lunch, as the waiter brings an extra large plate of oysters, followed by Chateaubriand and welsh rarebit, "you really must try to be less humble and more grand, as befits someone of your status, with so many important jobs." But it is no good. He will not listen. He just sits there, eating his oysters, modestly.
Today was the great Patten v Thompson supposed punch-up at Parliament, the day when it was going to be decided which one had the better account of something or other. I watched, glued to my chair (not literally), as these titans of the TV, media and political world prepared to engage in a fight to the death. It was riveting stuff. I had no idea what on earth was going on, but my God it was gripping.
Patten peered over his spectacles a lot. He is one of Britain's leading peerers over spectacles. Mark Thompson, the former director general, and now New York Times CEO, said "um" a lot but with such intensity that it was clear he really meant it. The HR director got a very tough time from her colleagues and from everyone else. This is the fate of the HR director down the ages.
Among the other assembled BBC witnesses – lined up as though facing a firing squad en masse – a consensus emerged. It rapidly became apparent that it was all the fault of someone else.
Of course the MPs absolutely loved the spectacle. They are so used to being attacked by the voters and the media, now here they were being gifted a chance to do the attacking instead.
I wonder, however, about this new and highly aggressive approach to witnesses favoured by some MPs at committees. Manners cost nothing. And I was also struck by the thought watching them that if only MPs had been gripped by the same fervour to examine, say, the massive expansion in government spending in the years before the financial crash, the country might not be in quite so much of a mess as it is now deficit wise.
At points today on the Public Accounts Committee it got so bad it was like one of those Soviet era show trials: "I don't believe for a second that you think that!" "How much do you earn?!" Margaret Hodge, the chairman clearly felt compelled to try and calm the situation, declaring loudly at one witness: "No more lies!"
And still I worry about Lord Patten. That man is just too modest for his own good.

Pico day submission for 2010! Three weeks of very intense work. This is somewhat of a sequel to Jeinu's 2008 flash, Operation:Warehouse. Kinda.
Sound effects were not completed on time and therefore we will not be editing them in. But we do see that alot of the feedback we're getting say that the soundless version is better anyway so...!
Beginning and Aftermath music composed by Shadowfox2, with action packed music stuff by TheLastOpus! All specially made for this flash. Check out their music!
Special thanks to Aura Core members and Shadowfox, who was able to compose on such short notice.
The end was funny!
Could have been better...
To me you just didn't quiet get it done. Pico day isn't about Nene! Otherwise you done good Hasslehoff you sone good. Still could have been better if you added Darnell as being part of the cult and Dad as being the demon but other then that nice work. 3/5 7/10
Great animation! What makes me laugh is that Nene saved Pico. It 's nice seeing flashes about Pico's friends.
good candidate for first place
Well done, good animation, and excellent action sequences, the ending was just icing on the cake, i hope that you win. but even if u dont ur guaranteed to be in the top ten
hybrid awesome
dear god this flash is so awesome and badass that i will need to invent a new word to define it hmmmm i got it as of today this flash will be known as badaosome

In a small, but growing number of nations the mobile phone has evolved from a simple personal communications device to become both a platform for commerce and an indispensable part of a "lifestyle infrastructure" that enhances personal productivity, manages financial transactions, and makes life far more convenient and efficient. Indeed, around the world, consumers can use mobile phones as electronic wallets to pay for public transit, to check in at airline gates, and to make purchases from merchants, kiosks, and vendors. But not in the United States, which lags behind world leaders in leveraging the mobile phone as a platform to effect commercial transactions. The result is lagging productivity and reduced convenience for America and Americans.
In the report Explaining International Mobile Payments Leadership ITIF identifies the leading nations in mobile payments, explains why the United States lags so far behind, and offers a set of policy recommendations for how the federal government can take steps to speed the arrival and adoption of more sophisticated forms of mobile commerce transactions, better leveraging these increasingly powerful mobile communications devices.

Blizzard claims the reasoning behind the higher repair costs stems mostly from "Death Zerging". I take that to mean people go in on a champ pack, will die, then run back and continue whaling on said pack over and over until it dies.
1) With the unbelievable combos you get, how could this be wrong?
2) I've yet to see a pack not regain it's full health by the time I make it back to them - am I just really unlucky?
Or am I missing something?
If I'm not, I hardly see how that is a good basis for upping the cost of repairs.
holy crap they put one downside to dying and you get your undies in a bunch, "blizz beat the game for me, and farm me gold while you're at it"
With the unbelievable combos you get, how could this be wrong?
Because they are smoothing out (in other words, nerfing) the damage and reducing damage "spikiness" overall in Inferno acts 2-4. And straight up nerfing specific champion affixes such as invulnerable minions and shielding.
I've yet to see a pack not regain it's full health by the time I make it back to them - am I just really unlucky?
It depends. Do you intentionally pull champions back to your spawn point to ensure you don't have to run at all in order to get back into the fight? Do you play solo or in 4 player games, where there is a much greater chance to keep the champion pack in combat at all times by players bannering to each others corpses? Do you engage champion packs when your respawn timer is already at 30 seconds or do you always make sure you wait in town for 2 minutes to reset it back to 3 seconds?

Simple economics. Risk v Reward. If you risk of dying is minimized by the massive amount of gold you get for death zerging than there is no penalty to death. When a legit strategy for some packs is keep respawning to get a few shots in something needs to be fixed.
Not everything is a conspiracy.
I tend to play solo, and I engage wherever they are at whatever time. I don't give a lot of thought to repawn timers, but I guess that in conjunction with kiting back to spawn point makes sense.
It's a bummer that everyone will get penalized for the faults of a few. = / Thanks for the info.

Marlon Samuels turned up with more than just his best form in Sunday's T20 WC final against Sri Lanka on Sunday. The 31-year-old Jamaican, architect of West Indies' 36-run victory over the hosts, was seen wearing a yellow neckerchief, which he later described as his lucky charm. "(It's for) good luck," Samuels, who hit a match-winning 78 runs off 56 balls and claimed one wicket for 15 runs to walk away with the man-of-the-match award, said in the presentation ceremony. "I take it on tour and I decided I am going to wear it in the final. I batted with it underneath my shirt and I field with it outside. Thought it would bring some luck today." Asked if he would keep it around his neck when he partied on Sunday night, Samuels said, "No definitely, I'm going to give it some rest until the test series starts in Bangladesh. That's what I'm looking for. I need to set my standard to get at least five centuries per year." Sunday's victory meant a lot for Samuels, who was banned in 2008 for passing on team information to a bookmaker during a one-day series in India in January 2007. "Everything what happened to me in my life is important, everything that happened to me in tough times. I know that I'm someone who never gives up," Samuels said. "Never-say-die, I think that's the person I am, dominant inside. That is the reason I'm still here playing cricket and not giving up." Samuels was particularly harsh on Sri Lankan pace bowler Lasith Malinga on Sunday, hitting him for five sixes, including three in the same over. "The wicket was a bit slow. But today was a different mindset. I decided to attack their best bowler which is Malinga and it paid off for me," he said, revealing he a score to settle. "Well, I was facing him one time in Mumbai when he got me out bowled and I was very upset. So it was my time today..."

An apparatus is provided for curing a coating applied to an optical fiber. An elongated ultraviolet lamp and the optical fiber emerging from the coater are located at focii of an elliptical mirror which focuses the ultraviolet energy onto the coated fiber. The fiber is surrounded by a cylindrical chamber that is transparent to ultraviolet light. The chamber includes a jacket through which there flows a fluid which absorbs infrared energy. A cooling gas flows from a annular slot located at the bottom end of the chamber. The slot is so angled that gas flowing therefrom is directed upwardly and inwardly toward the coated fiber so that there exists within the chamber a recirculating flow of cooling gas. This enables the cooling gas to repeatedly absorb heat from the coated fiber and give up that heat to the chamber wall which is cooled by the fluid.
1. An apparatus for curing a coating applied to a fiber being drawn along a given axis, said apparatus comprising
an elongated ultraviolet energy-generating lamp mounted parallel to said given axis,
means for focusing said ultraviolet energy onto said given axis whereby a coating on a fiber drawn along said given axis becomes cured,
a jacket surrounding said given axis, said jacket comprising inner and outer cylinders that are transparent to ultraviolet energy, and
means for flowing through said jacket a fluid which absorbs infrared energy.
2. An apparatus in accordance with claim 1 wherein said fluid is water.
3. An apparatus in accordance with claim 1 further comprising means for flowing a cooling gas through said inner cylinder.
4. An apparatus in accordance with claim 3 wherein said means for flowing comprises means at one end of said inner cylinder for flowing said cooling gas such that it has a flow component which is directed radially inwardly toward said axis and a flow component which is directed toward the opposite end of said inner cylinder.
5. An apparatus in accordance with claim 4 further comprising means at that end of said inner cylinder opposite said one end for venting said gas.
6. An apparatus in accordance with claim 5 further comprising means at said one end of said inner cylinder for restricting the flow of ambient air into said inner cylinder.
7. In a method for coating a fiber and thereafter curing said coated fiber, said curing step being characterized in that it comprises
passing said coated fiber through an elongated jacket formed of inner and outer cylinders that are transparent to ultraviolet light,
flowing between said cylinders a fluid that is transparent to ultraviolet energy but absorbs a major portion of the infrared energy incident thereon
radiating ultraviolet and infrared energy toward said jacket whereby a major portion of said infrared energy is filtered and a major portion of said ultraviolet energy is transmitted to said coated fiber.
8. A method in accordance with claim 7 further comprising the step of flowing a cooling gas through said inner cylinder.
9. A method in accordance with claim 8 wherein the step of flowing comprises flowing said cooling gas into one end of said inner cylinder in such a direction that it has a flow component which is directed radially inwardly toward said fiber and a flow component which is directed toward the opposite end of said inner cylinder.
This invention relates to a method and apparatus for curing a coating applied to an elongated filament. More particularly, it relates to a method and apparatus for maintaining a coated optical fiber at a relatively low temperature during the curing operation.
Glass optical waveguide fibers must exhibit high strength in order to withstand the stresses which are encountered while incorporating them into protective sheathing or cable, while installing the cable, or during use. While such fibers are typically quite strong as drawn, this strength is rapidly degraded by surface defects which are introduced into the fiber through handling or otherwise. To preserve the strength of a newly drawn fiber, it is conventional to apply a protective coating to the fiber immediately after it is drawn.
The coated fiber usually passes through an ultraviolet curing oven which employs a lamp that generates infrared radiation in addition to the ultraviolet energy needed for curing. If an excessive amount of infrared radiation reaches the coating, it can cause evaporation of the surface of the coating material. In a two-stage coating apparatus, the primary coating is usually subjected to ultraviolet energy for curing prior to the application of the secondary coating. If the primary coating is not maintained at a sufficiently low temperature when the fiber enters the second coater, the viscosity of the primary coating will be so low that variations in diameter of the first applied coating can result. Some defects caused by an excessively high coating temperature can be detected by observing a section of coated fiber under a microscope where the surface of the primary coating can be seen through the secondary coating. The primary coating should appear as two parallel lines, indicating uniform diameter. If the primary coating is too hot when the coated fiber passes into the secondary coater, the primary coating surface may appear as two undulatory lines. Also, the temperature of the coated fiber can be measured by a non-contact fiber temperature measuring device. The maximum permissible temperature for conventional UV curable coating materials is about 80� C.
When drawing fiber at a relatively low rate, we cooled the coating material in the curing oven by passing the coated fiber through a transparent cylinder through which inert gas was flowed. For example, a draw rate of about 5 m/sec required the flow of about 12 1/min of nitrogen to cool the coating. When the draw rate was increased to 10 m/sec, the power of the ultraviolet light source had to be increased in order to adequately cure the coating, and the nitrogen flow rate had to be correspondingly increased. An inordinately high rate of coolant gas flow is expensive and can cause excessive vibration of the fiber whereby it is deflected from its intended position in the cavity where the ultraviolet light is most highly focused. Also, fiber vibration can affect coating concentricity in the preceding coating apparatus.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus for cooling an optical fiber coating while it is in the ultraviolet curing oven. Another object is to cool the coating without excessively vibrating the fiber.
Briefly, the curing apparatus of the present invention comprises an elongated lamp mounted parallel to the axis along which the coated fiber passes. Focusing means is provided for directing ultraviolet energy generated by the lamp onto the axis. Surrounding the axis is a double-walled jacket having inner and outer cylinders that are transparent to ultraviolet energy. Means is provided for flowing through the jacket a fluid which absorbs infrared energy. The apparatus may further comprise means for flowing a cooling gas through the inner cylinder so that it flows over the coated fiber. The cooling gas preferably has a flow component which is directed radially inwardly toward the fiber and a flow component which is directed toward the opposite end of the inner cylinder where gas venting means is optionally located. That end of the inner cylinder adjacent the cooling gas source can be provided with means such as an adjustable iris diaphragm for restricting the flow of ambient air into that end of the inner cylinder from which the fiber emerges.
The invention also relates to a method for coating a fiber and thereafter curing the coated fiber, wherein the curing step is characterized as follows. The coated fiber is passed through an elongated jacket formed of inner and outer cylinders that are transparent to ultraviolet light. There is flowed between the cylinders a fluid that is transparent to ultraviolet energy but absorbs infrared energy incident thereon. Ultraviolet and infrared energy are radiated toward the jacket, whereby infrared energy is filtered but ultraviolet energy is transmitted to the coated fiber.
It is that band of ultraviolet energy beteen about 200 nm and about 400 nm that is useful for curing presently known plastic coatings for optical fibers. The term "ultraviolet energy" as used herein means any wavelength band in the ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is useful for curing the applied plastic coating.
As used herein the phrase "transparent to ultraviolet energy" means that a major portion of the incident ultraviolet energy is transmitted.
As used herein the phrase "infrared filter" or the like means an optical device which removes or filters a major portion of the infrared energy incident thereon.
FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of an apparatus for drawing and coating optical fibers.
FIG. 2 is an oblique view, in partial section, of the coating cooling apparatus of the present invention.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the jacket of FIG. 2.
It is to be noted that the drawings are illustrative and symbolic of the present invention, and there is no intention to indicate scale or relative proportions of the elements shown therein.
Referring to FIG. 1 there is shown an apparatus for drawing an optical waveguide fiber 10. In the illustrated embodiment, the fiber is pulled by tractors 13 from a preform 11, the tip of which is softened in furnace 12. Other fiber forming techniques such as drawing from a melt can also be employed. Fiber 10 may consist of a glass core surrounded by a layer of cladding glass of lower refractive index than the core. Alternatively, fiber 10 may consist solely of core glass, the plastic material applied thereto in coater 15 comprising the cladding.
Means 14 may be provided between the coater and the furnace for measuring the fiber diameter and determining the position of the fiber. Also, means 18 may be provided for cooling the fiber before it enters primary coater 15. The coated fiber is subjected to ultraviolet light in curing oven 20 to cure the coating. A further layer of coating material may be applied to coated fiber 10' by a secondary coater 22. The secondary coating is subjected to ultraviolet light in curing oven 23, and the resultant coated fiber 10" is engaged by tractors 13. Curing ovens 20 and 23 may each consist of a single oven or a plurality of ovens arranged in series.
One or both of the curing ovens 20 and 23 can be constructed in the manner illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3. Polymer coated glass fiber 30 is irradiated by one or more ultraviolet lamps 31, two such lamps being illustrated. The fiber and lamps are located at the two focii of an elliptical mirror 32 to ensure that a large amount of the light emitted by lamps 31 impinge on the coated fiber. When two or more lamps are employed they are connected to separate power sources (not shown) so that one or more of them can be energized as needed. Also, variable power sources can be employed. It is conventional to employ a fan 29 to blow air through vent holes 28 to cool the lamps.
The ultraviolet curing of optical fiber coatings is most effectively accomplished in the wavelength range of 200-400 nm. However, most ultraviolet sources emit a much wider spectrum with energies outside of this range. That portion of the radiation that is unnecessary for curing can lead to the excessive generation of heat both in the curing cavity and in the coating.
In accordance with the present invention a double-walled jacket 34 comprising concentric glass cylinders 35 and 36 surrounds the coated fiber. A fluid 37, which absorbs infrared energy, is passed through jacket 34 from inlet port 38 to outlet port 39. Glass cylinders 35 and 36 should be formed of a material such as fused silica, borosilicate glass or the like which is highly transmissive to ultraviolet light. An infrared absorbing glass such as 81 wt. % SiO2, 13 wt. % B2 O3, 2 wt. % Al2 O3 and 4 wt % Na2 O may be employed. Fluid 37 may consist of water or another suitable infrared absorbing fluid which transmits the desirable ultraviolet wavelengths. Fluid 37 can contain an infrared absorbing material such as CuSO4, CoCl2 or the like. Also, an infrared-absorbing material such as gold can be applied to jacket 34 in a thin layer 40 having a thickness of about 500 μm, for example.
Even though coated fiber 30 is shielded from some of the heating effects of lamp 31, some of the infrared energy therefrom reaches the fiber. Also, the temperature of the coating material increases when the curing reaction is exothermic. It is therefore advantageous to flow a cooling gas through cylinder 35. An inert cooling gas is usually preferred since a reactive gas such as oxygen can adversely affect the curing process by competing with the photoinitiators in the coating. As shown in FIG. 3, cylinder 35 is provided with end caps 41 and 42 for introducing and exhausting the cooling gas. The gas is fed to an annular chamber 43 by pipe 44. Annular slot 45 is conically shaped, whereby it directs the gas such that it has a component directed inwardly toward fiber 30 and a component directed toward endcap 42. The resultant recirculating flow is represented by arrows 47. Heat picked up by the gas in cylinder 35 is removed through the walls of that cylinder. The resultant cooled gas thereafter again flows over the coated fiber and the abovementioned heat exchange cycle is repeated. When it reaches the top of cylinder 35, the gas can merely exhaust through aperture 54 through which the fiber enters cylinder 35. Means such as annular slot 49 in end cap 42 can also be used for exhausting the cooling gas. From slot 49 the cooling gas can flow through annular chamber 50 to exhaust pipe 48.
Endcaps 41 and 42 may be provided with iris diaphragms 51 and 52 having adjustable apertures 53 and 54, respectively. Apertures 53 and 54 can be opened relatively wide to initially feed the fiber through chamber 34. As the draw operation becomes stabilized, the apertures can be made smaller. It is especially important that aperture 53 be small during operation of the apparatus of FIGS. 2 and 3 to prevent ambient air from being drawn into cylinder 35 since oxygen in the air inhibits the free radical curing reactions.
The apparatus shown in FIG. 2 is especially useful when fluid 37 comprises an infrared absorbing additive. Fluid flowing from pipe 39 may be recirculated through cooler 56 and pump 57 back to inlet pipe 38. FIG. 2 shows that a coolant gas from source 59 can be flowed through chamber 34 and exhausted from pipe 48. Alternatively, the coolant gas could also be recirculated through a cooler and pumped back into pipe 44. Such a recirculation system would be especially useful if an expensive gas such as helium were employed.
The improvement obtained by employing a water cooling jacket in addition to a coolant gas is evident from the following example. An apparatus similar to that shown in FIGS. 1 through 3 was employed to draw and coat optical fibers. A 50 μm thick coating of UV curable acrylate was applied to a 125 μm diameter optical fiber in the primary coater. The coated fiber passed into a curing oven having a length of about 21 cm. The minor and major dimensions of the elliptical mirror were 9 cm and 11.8 cm, respectively, the distance between the two focii being 7.5 cm. Two 3000 watt lamps were located coaxially as shown in FIG. 2.
When drawing fiber at relatively low rates, we cooled the coating material in the curing oven by merely surrounding the coated fiber with cylindrical silica cylinder having an inside diameter of 2.5 cm and a wall thickness of 3.2 mm. At a draw speed of 5 m/sec one of the lamps was operated at full power, the other lamp remaining off. A flow of 12 1/min of nitrogen at about 25� C. was required to cool the coating a sufficient amount to prevent visual defects from occurring in the double-coated fiber as discussed above.
At a draw speed of 10 m/sec both lamps were operated at full power in order to provide a sufficient amount of ultraviolet energy to cure the coating. Because this also resulted in the transmission of more infrared energy to the fiber coating, the flow of nitrogen through the silica cylinder had to be increased to 60 1/min to adequately cool the coating.
Because of the aforementioned disadvantages resulting from such an excessively high flow rate of cooling gas, the silica cylinder was replaced by the double-walled silica jacket of FIGS. 2 and 3. The inside diameter of inner cylinder 35 was 2.54 cm and the outside diameter of outer cylinder 36 was 5.1 cm. The wall thickness of the cylinders was 3.2 mm. Water at a temperature of about 10� C. was flowed through the jacket at a rate of 3.4 1/min. An acceptable coating was obtained at a nitrogen flow rate of 30 1/min through cylinder 35.

Back at the rangers hq they were starting to wake up
Jackson struggles top wake. In his sleep his dream is turning into nightmare. He sees himself fighting Atilla and suddenly atilla turns to Lucas as he is about to strike. Jackson wakes up right before he hurts Lucas. He looks around wide eyed. Everyone is staring at him. Jackson climbs out of bed and almost falls. Lucas catches him and puts him back on the bed.
"Woah you ok dude,you look like you've just seen a ghost."Lucas says.
"No, but close to." Jackson Mutters.
"What?" Lucas asks.
Jackson shakes him head and looks up. "Ohh its nothing dont worry."
"You sure?" Lucas inquires.
"Yes now" Jackson gets up again and goes to where the others are "What is there to drink around here?"
Melanie gives him her drink. "Here but I'm not sure you'll like it."
He takes it politely and thanks her. He drinks it and spits it out. "What is this?"
Lacai enters and sees him drinking it. "Ahh isn't cactus and Eggs delicious."
"What no one drinks this" Jackson exclaims.
"Really it is one of the worlds delicacies."
"But i can see you haven't become accustomed to it. Lacai sends a line of magic towards the cup. "Take another sip."
Jackson does only to find that it is delicious. "What happened to this?"
"Cactus and eggs are the most manipulable substances on the earth so they can be accustomed to any person taste especially with a little help.
Doyu have any suggestions for where we should meet in the story Lalso please provide a name for the place.
couples list is a good idea...
so it can be like this:
Red x Jade
Nathan ( should we make him a ranger? because it's up to you... ) x Blake
Black x Silver.
Blue x ( i got this idea of there being a really mean but pretty girl at our school, and Blue falling for her... )
and also i want it to be a secret that we have power ranger parents. i won't tell anybody that i am from the future either, until all our parents come back on one episode named something like " Former fancy " or something...
and i think after this, we should finally make our own board to let people in...

Logo's Trailblazers special on June 26 will honor some of the pioneers who've made a major impact on the struggle for national LGBT equality. But it's also about honoring the trailblazers in our own backyards: Logo is inviting fans to submit videos and photos about the friends, family and local leaders who are Hometown Trailblazers.
It could be a neighbor working to get workplace protections for LGBT people in your community, a student starting a Gay-Straight Alliance at their school, or even a clergy member who spoke in favor of marriage equality from the pulpit.
Five nominees will have their stories featured on the Trailblazers website—and one lucky Hometown Trailblazer will win a trip with their nominator to the Trailblazers ceremony in New York.
Starting today, you can submit stories, photos and videos about your Hometown Trailblazer here.

48 Hours is a documentary and news program broadcast on the CBS television network since January 19, 1988. The program originally took a forty eight hour slice of a single topic and put it into a one hour program. It was revamped in 2002 when Lesley Stahl took over hosting duties from Dan Rather and the name was changed to 48 Hours Investigates. The name was changed to 48 Hours Mystery in 2004, and with its single-topic format, does not use a single host, but is moderated by the reporter assigned to the story. The current format of the documentary primarily deals with real life mysteries and crime stories, again with just one mystery per episode, owing to its single topic per show heritage. In April 2007, however, the program took a short break from its mystery format to cover the Virginia Tech massacre.
The 1993 murder of Trisha Pacaccio near Chicago is investigated as are two other slayings and a brutal attack near Los Angeles. The crimes were allegedly committed by Michael Gargiulo, who knew or lived near all four victims.

Central North Carolina Hotels
Central North Carolina Hotel Reviews
It's not usually a problem to find a place to stay in one of the Piedmont's resorts, bed-and-breakfasts, or motels or hotels. But during the High Point Market, a home-furnishings show held in spring and fall, tens of thousands of people descend on the area, making rooms almost impossible to find. May is graduation time for the region's colleges and universities. If you're planning on visiting the Triangle during these peak times, book accommodations well in advance. Because many of the cities in the Piedmont are destinations for business travelers, hotel rates are often much higher during the week than the weekend. You can also expect lots of up-charges in fancier business-oriented hotels for such things as breakfast, parking, and Internet fees.
Most lodging options in the Sandhills fall into the resort category; pricing plans and options are extensive and often confusing. However, there are some chain motels in Southern Pines as well as numerous B&Bs. The high seasons for golf, which bring the most expensive lodging rates, are from mid-March to mid-May and from mid-September to mid-November.

Austin praised — though absent — at Hornung Award banquet
Send this story to a friend

Though he didn't attend Friday's third-annual Paul Hornung Award banquet in Louisville, West Virginia University's Tavon Austin drew high praise from a former assistant coach that accepted the honor on his behalf.
Steve Dunlap, a former West Virginia assistant head coach and special teams coordinator, told banquet attendees at the Galt House Hotel that Austin has "always been a winner."
"I've never seen a player like him," Dunlap said. Austin was "the most dangerous man in college football when he had his hands on the ball."
Looking at his season statistics, that would be hard to dispute.
Austin, a running back, receiver and kick-return specialist for the Mountaineers, compiled 2,910 all-purpose yards, an average of 223.8 per game.
He ran for 643 yards on 72 carries with three touchdowns, caught 114 passes for 1,289 yards and 12 touchdowns, had 32 kick returns for 813 yards and a touchdown and returned 15 punts for 165 yards and a touchdown.
Austin was honored with the Hornung Award as major college football's most versatile player. The honor is named for Louisville native Paul Hornung, a Heisman Trophy winner at the University of Notre Dame and a Hall of Fame player with the NFL's Green Bay Packers.
Austin was unable to come to Louisville for the banquet because he was training for the upcoming NFL combines.
Hornung was joined at Friday's banquet by his former Packers teammate and fellow Hall of Famer Bart Starr, a quarterback who led Green Bay to five championships, including two Super Bowl titles.
Starr heaped praise on the "Golden Boy" during his keynote address.

INTERNATIONAL hospitality icon Jamie Oliver's first foray into the Adelaide restaurant market will be spearheaded by a Naracoorte girl.
Kylie Hole, 38, has been appointed general manager of Jamie's Italian, due to open in Adelaide later this year.
It represents a career high for the former Naracoorte South Primary School student, who has been working towards a general manager's role throughout an already impressive career.
Having worked at Disneyland in the US, on a cruise ship, in a New York bar, managing restaurants at both Bali and Hayman Island and finally in management on the exclusive private island of Laucala, off Fiji, Kylie has landed a dream job.
"I think this is my ideal first (general manager) posting as such," she told the Herald from London, where she is currently doing four weeks of intensive training. "I'm extremely passionate about my career choice of hospitality and have been preparing myself for this challenge for a long time.
"Jamie Oliver is such a well known personality in Australia, and for me to be able to be part of the team bringing Jamie's Italian to Adelaide is incredibly exciting.
"Already, I have met so many people that have worked in various different roles in the Jamie Oliver family, and it seems that the effort and hard work that you put in you will get in return."
Life has been something of a whirlwind since Kylie was appointed to the key role, with the team surrounding Oliver swinging into the task of getting a high standard restaurant up and running in only a few months.
"The training program is very thorough and in-depth, which is fabulous for me," Kylie said. "There is a great support system in this company and the time and money being invested in my training is really motivating.
"I'm here in London at the Piccadilly restaurant for four weeks, spending the first three of those in each different section of the kitchen. My last week will be training on the floor, where I will shadow one of the servers.
"When I leave here, I will go back to Sydney to complete another four weeks of training, including bar and management training.
"Once the training in the restaurants is complete, I'll head back to Adelaide, where we will train all of our eager new starters."
Kylie, who is likely to meet Oliver for the first time this week, said the fare at Jamie's Italian would be of the highest quality, but as is Oliver's trademark, it would be appealing to everyone.
"Our restaurant in Adelaide is going to seat about 170 guests and it will serve beautiful house-made pastas, amazing antipasti and fantastic mains and specials," she said.
"Jamie's Italian welcomes everyone. We'll take reservations, but we'll also welcome walk-ins to the restaurant.
"I hope that Adelaide welcomes Jamie's Italian with open arms and we are able to keep the diners coming back time and time again. The food is amazing and the concept is casual, warm and welcoming, so I am pretty sure Adelaide and our visitors will love it."
She might have been living a jetsetting lifestyle in her adult life, but before that she had a happy upbringing in Naracoorte, where she grew up with father Brenton, a well-known school teacher and football coach, and mum Mandy.
"Growing up in Naracoorte was fantastic," Kylie said. "My schooling was great, we had great teachers, the township was so nice too, and we had such a fun neighbourhood.
"There were always plenty of kids playing at each other's houses and the weekends were filled with plenty of friends and outside activities.
"The sporting culture there was also great, and once I finally found my coordination, I also found my competitive spirit.
"From my first basketball games until now, I am fiercely competitive. That goes a long way in any career.
"I'm still a country girl at heart and I got my warmth - I think - from growing up in the country. I've just used that and taken myself around the world."
Brenton, who now lives in Adelaide but spends time in the SE as a development officer with Glenelg Football Club, said Kylie's family was proud of the career path she'd taken.
"She's been everywhere really and she's always wanted a general manager's role," he said. "She's worked in every area of the industry and tried to get experience in all the roles, and get up a step each time.
"Now she's been lucky enough to get this job and it'll be good for her."
Brenton joked that he and Mandy had "gone around the world to catch up with her" throughout Kylie's adult life, and it would be nice to have her working in Adelaide.
Kylie agreed: "I've been away for a long time and have been very fortunate to have been able to travel and see the world, at the same time furthering my career.
"I've thought about coming home often, but have never had the right career opportunity come up. This position is absolutely that."

I'm gonna give this one a try. Made some changes.
I swapped out the 2 row with Maris Otter, and added another .5 # of it.
Added .25 # of Special Roast in there to aid in the nutty roast flavor.
Kept it all the same, and plan to hit it with some Wyeast 1099 Whitbread instead of the Notty. Should fair a bit cleaner, but with a nice malty back bone.
Sounds pretty good I think, great base recipe. Will do it this weekend, and will report back on my BS numbers for those interested.
I'm gonna brew this for thanksgiving. That gives me 6 weeks. I think I'm gonna give it two weeks in the primary then bottle it. I'm sure I'll have a lot left over (only 2 or 3 beer drinkers) at what age have you guys found this to be in its prime?
Brewed this up today with my changes I made.. Planned for 70% eff, and got 75%. I mashed a weeee bit higher than planned as I didn't wait for my tun to lose some heat, so did it around 155 after some stirring.
1.062 OG.. Not sure where it'll finish at, but hopefully no more than 1.015 I think. Pitched some 1099 Whitbread on it. Wort looked pretty good going into the fermenter.
I cracked open my 1st bottle tonight and it is delish. Very impressed. I carbed it up to 2.3 volumes and it is perfect, head retention is outstanding. My batch came out at 5.1%. A great session beer that I will brew again and again. Thanks to OP for this recipe. Cheers.
My krausen has already dropped after 2 days at 67*... Very odd.. Still acting like it's fermenting, but was really quick I think, unless I have something odd going on.
Bubba's Backyard Brewery
Funny, in my quest to make a New Holland - Cabin Fever clone I made something very close to this brown recipe. I think it will be very similar, but with alot more body and creaminess. Scheduled brew date is nov 4th so i have some time to tweak it. What do you guys think?

I've been wanting to brew a nut brown (this one looks/sounds excellent) with cranberries for a couple months now, mainly for Thanksgiving-time. Would anyone have an idea of how many pounds I could use? I'm thinking 3 lbs, at this point, but I don't know if that's too much or too little since I've only used them in Wits before and not borderline dark-beers. I'm going to pulverize them and boil them for roughly 10 minutes in a just enough water to kill bacteria and wild yeast cells on their skins. I'll be adding them to the secondary and racking onto them. I have a 6.5 gal carboy, so that should handle the volume of beer + cranberry sludge. Please hit me up with your suggestions/opinions, cheers!
So mine start at 1.062, and finished at 1.018 with a bottle of maple syrup in there as well. I think it's still fermenting out a bit, I mashed mine around 155 or so, to get it a bit thicker, but didn't want it THAT high. I was in a hurry and didn't let the water cool before I added the grain. Not really mad with 18 points, but was looking for 15 or so.. We'll see how it tastes when it's carbed. Gonna toss another 8.5 oz of maple syrup in the keg and crash it all to get some nice maple, but might not considering the higher gravity finish there.
Tasted okay in the fermenter.. Gonna let it sit another week before I keg it and get it bottled up.
Gonna brew this tomorrow. Does anyone see a problem with swapping out the 2-row for vienna? I have a 50 lb sack and i wanna switch out the base grain.
