Position Yourself for a Promotion
& Prepare to Move Up the Ladder
"The ladder of success is best climbed by stepping on the rungs of opportunity."
~ Ayn Rand ~
Tammy is good at her job, but her career doesn't seem to be going anywhere. She has been in the same position for two years and is ready to move up to the next rung of the ladder. One of her co-workers was just promoted to the position she wanted, and now she wonders if she will be stuck in her current position forever.
Getting a promotion requires more effort than merely doing your job and being good at it. Supervisors want to see that you are qualified for the new position, not the one you are already doing. You must stay alert for opportunities to advance or to move laterally to broaden your skills and position yourself for future success.
If you …
10 Ways to Ease Your Workload
and Reduce Your Stress at Work
"A round of golf is the ideal antidote to stress."
~ Bruce Forsyth ~
Client Jordan Asks: My job has become overwhelming. My work load keeps increasing, and I find myself working long hours to get everything done. How can I take control of the situation and get my life back?
Coach Joel Answers: It's not uncommon for job responsibilities to grow over time, especially when economic conditions prevent the hiring of additional help. Instead of adding employees, organizations expect individual employees to take on more and more responsibilities. However, there is a limit to how much one person can do. You must learn to create boundaries, or you will become overwhelmed by the additional work.
Here are a few ways you can reduce both your work load and your stress levels.
How being indispensable is hurting your career
You've seen multiple colleagues promoted ahead of you, despite your better job performance. You have received nothing but praise and great reviews, month after month, but still, career advancement eludes you. You don't have time to delegate, and can't take a holiday without being bombarded with questions only you can answer. Any of this sounding familiar?
Too often, hard-working, intelligent managers are passed over for promotions because they have struggled to make the necessary transition from their current role to a strategic leader for the business. In fact, they have become too good at their role, and therefore made themselves an indispensable part of their team, inhibiting both personal and team growth.
However, there is a solution. Richard Jolly, an Adjunct Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour in the General Management programmes at London Business School, writes extensively on the topic of indispensability in his article, which has served …
Be Carried to the Top:
5 Support People Who Can Help You Get Ahead
"There is no such thing as a self-made man. You will reach your goals only with the help of others."
~ George Shinn ~
Client Dena Asks: In their book, The Five Patterns of Extraordinary Careers, James Citrin and Richard Smith concluded that, "People with extraordinary careers do not claw their way to the top, they are carried there."Where can I get the support I need to help me reach my career goals?
Coach Joel Answers: Support from others is a valuable commodity in any situation, but it's a necessity when you navigate the corporate landscape. Without it, you risk being stuck in your current position indefinitely, overlooked for promotion and passed by others who are well connected and better supported.
How can you find others to help "carry" you?
Cultivate and take advantage of these five key resources:
1. Supporters Supporters …
How to Get a Promotion at Work:
11 Tips to Help You Move Up
"Financial rewards follow accomplishment; they don't precede it."
~ Harry F. Banks ~
A client of mine, Lance, has been with his company for ten years. He works hard and gets his work done. Management knows he is consistent, reliable, and loyal. They're happy with the status quo. Unfortunately, my client is not.
He is ready to make the change. He's tired of being taken for granted. He wants to get paid appropriately and get promoted. So he must overcome his current perception as a "reliable workhorse."
If you're like Lance, you can't just hope that you'll get the reward down the road for all your hard work. Instead, you must take control of your career and stop hiding out.
Here are some tips to get you started if you're not sure how to go about getting a promotion at …

Bonham Carter subsequently began to make a name for herself in more contemporary roles, such as that of Marla Singer, an eccentric support-group addict in David Fincher's Fight Club (1999); the film also starred Brad Pitt and Edward Norton.

Updates after October 10th game update
Hey guys,
in the game update a few days ago Valve added a few commands to set seperate volumes for the music that you can find in the game. The different music types are main menu music, round start music, round end music, bomb planted/hostage taken music, 10 second warning music and death camera music.
With that, the autoexec help and example autoexec pages needed an update and the following commands have been added to both:
snd_musicvolume (was there before, just got updated)
And thats it for today already :)
FINALLY … All pages up to date, all comments and emails answered
Yes, it's finally done, everything is up to date again and all comments/emails have been answered. Not going to waste much time here, let's take a quick look at all the changes:
Autoexec help:
– split safezonex and safezoney, updated safezonex
– added cl_radar_square_with_scoreboard
– added engine_no_focus_sleep
– added cl_obs_interp_enable
Crosshair help:
– updated style 5
– added cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue
Example autoexec:
– updated some command descriptions
– added cl_radar_square_with_scoreboard
– added engine_no_focus_sleep
– added cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue
– added cl_obs_interp_enable
– added // bind "Q" "invnextnongrenade"
– reworded some things
– updated TK penalty
– added a note regarding suiciding
Useful aliases, toggles and binds:
– replaced a long script with the way simplier "invnextnongrenade"
– added fonts.spddl.de
My equipment:
– updated some things
As always: If you find any errors, let me know in the comments! :)
Thank you's, moving hosts and update status
Hey guys,
I can't believe the last post was posted over a month ago already, it have been some busy weeks in the CS:GO scene and 99Damage needed all of my attention. Those busy weeks have come to an end, at least for now, and I'm finally able to update you.
The first thing I want to do is to thank a couple of people. The first thank you is going out to /u/zivi7, who posted the last post to reddit. Because of that, I want to thank David, Florian, Bang, Jay, Finn and Tom, who donated after reading about it on reddit. It is because of you that the site will be up and running past November 19th.
Speaking of up and running: There is a possibility of a downtime of up to 48 hours for some people around November 19th, since I'm moving the website and URL to new hosters. As I already said in my answer to the reddit post, I have found someone who offered me to host the website and we will be working together to get everything up and running again as fast as possible. Another huge thank you, this time to Smatify, a fellow staff member of 99Damage, who offered his help with hosting the site.
Last, but not least, starting today, I will slowly but surely start to update all the content on the website and answer all comments and e-mails I haven't answered yet. This will take a while cause there is a lot of stuff to test and update, but I hope everything will be up to date again in 1 or 2 weeks. Me and Smatify will also be working together on some new stuff at some point in the future, but since there are other more important projects for him at the moment, I can not give any time frame on when we will begin to work on those new things.
I will keep you guys posted about the progress of updates and the new content! :)

Close to the old part of the city, restaurants, shopping.etc. - Lorianne
Staying at the Ipanema Park in January was just what the doctor ordered. It gave a great sense of space and attentive staff. There is a free bus at 10am each day to El Corte Inglais which is a great department store and is next to a Metro Station. - Anonymous
Joaquim was very friendly, he provided us with a city map and
information about what we should visit. Also, he recomended us a coule
of restaurants in the city.. We stayed in the apartment in the top of
the building. The view was breathtaking and it is a very bright
apartment. It is practically in the city centre. We parked our car in
the street for free and it was very easy to find a parking space
everytime we took the car. Or stay was very comfortable and lovely. - Anonymous
Staff at reception desk were helpful and cheerful. Breakfast was excellent (fruit salad was really fresh). Very clean, close to the town centre and a shopping mall - Roberto
Excellent stay quiet well equipped and now with king size comfortable beds, 120m from open top bus tours and airport for €1.80 park with nice walks 100m good Cafe 20m.If in Porto again we will definitely stay here again. - Anonymous
The shining view apartments where by far the best apartments I ever
stayed at. The atmosphere is great and the furniture modern. It holds
everything you need and much more. Moreover it is set in a great
neighborhood in the city center and surrounded by typical small
Portuguese restaurants and grocery shops. The owner is very nice and
super helpful. He knows all the must see's in the city and has a
lot of tips. I give it 5 stars! I sincerely loved it and can recommend
it to anyone. - Anonymous

Weirdest. Jay Leno. Picture. Ever.
Even without the retouching (alleged), this new NBC promo pic of Jay Leno is extremely odd. He looks gigantic, almost like it's a giant wax-duplicate of Leno.
But the real story is that retouching that Newsweek says NBC has done with this pic for The Jay Leno Show. I don't really know if the skin tone of the hand is that different than the face, but it's certainly odd because it's not even touching his face like they want us to believe. Also: either he has had major plastic surgery or there's retouching on the face too.
I wonder why they wanted the hand there anyway. To make him look "contemplative?"
New America's Next Top Model promo reminds me why I love this show
For instance, the ad for Cycle 11 of America's Next Top Model featured in the September issue of Vogue doesn't look like a picture of Tyra Banks surrounded by fashionista wannabes, so much as the idea of Tyra Banks surrounded by fashionista wannabes ... as imagined by an unholy union of Pixar artists and caricature-drawing carnies after a 72-hour absinthe and 'shroom binge that featured Jesus Christ Superstar stuck on a loop in the DVD player.
Fox News airs doctored photos
Co-hosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade showed the photos which portrayed Jacques Steinberg with yellow teeth, a wider chin, and big ears, and Times television editor Steven Reddicliffe with the same yellow smile and a receding hairline. The caricatures seem to be done with Adobe Photoshop (tm) tools.
Ugly Betty becomes Skinny Betty for the cover of Glamour
In the world of digital image manipulation there are two types of Photoshop users: those who use it like an artist uses a brush, and those who use it like a 1st grader uses glue to paste cutouts on a worksheet. In today's lesson, we'll be talking about the 1st grader.
Take a look at the image of Ugly Betty's America Ferrera from the cover of October's Glamour magazine. Many reports are saying that America's head has been sloppily pasted to a thinner woman's body. From the most recent image of America on the left, it certainly looks like a digital imaging hash job. The head seems a bit off kilter. And, take a look at her neck. Isn't it just a tad thinner and longer than we are used to seeing?
Now it's Rosie's turn to be Photoshopped
First Katie Couric, now Rosie O'Donnell.
Yup, Rosie's body has been altered too, in a recent photop promoting the new season of The View. But even Rosie noticed it, and has a sense of humor about it. From her blog:
look at the amount of white space
between my arm and body
barbara and elisabeth seem to vanish
there in my underarm
If we ever do a photo of me here on TV Squad, I'm going to have the art guy add some hair to my head.

The previous allotment owner planted comfrey across the back of my plot and after slowly reaching that area to try to get it organised, I can ascertain that it certainly does come up everywhere. I have planted some in a pot for use as a fantastic accelerator in the compost heap and for fertiliser but in order to exterminate the rest I am going to have to resort to repeated attacks with weedkiller. This year I really had been looking forward to planting out raspberries in autumn there but I shall probably have to postpone that idea until I am certain the comfrey battle has been won. I don't want to be digging around the rasp roots to get it out and thus cause suckering.
Oh what fun!
Thanks everybody. Judging by Tootles book, it looks as if I have completely planned my veggie patches wrong this year and should have been armed with The Companion Garden last autumn when planning what to do. My brassicas are in the bed next to tomatoes and the tomatoes have potatoes on the other side of them. I have sown some marigolds (do they have to be French ones?) to go with my runner beans to keep off black fly and some nasturtiums to put with my broccoli and cabbages. I read also somewhere that cauliflowers do not do well with broccoli and cabbages.
Re Sweetcorn - is it really practical to grow s/corn next to runner beans, given that they are both tall crops? Thinking about the light aspect for each. I had wondered about growing them at right angles to runners.
All so mind boggling!
I grow some comfrey in a pot on my allotment and every now and then throw some of the leaves into my primary bin to help accelerate decomposition. I use two wooden bins and empty the contents into bin 2 at the end of winter and I think the comfrey def seems to speed things up.
Hi All.
I would like to try companion planting to help keep away pests and encourage healthy growth in the allotment and vege garden at home.
Have any of you experienced growers some tips on this and are there any definite no-no's on this subject?
Many thanks
I have had several heathers in my garden for many years. I believe they prefer ericacious compost (they grow on healthlands in the wild which are usually very acidic). I incorporate the E compost into the soil before planting and then give them a mulch of same every two or a three years. The main thing about heathers is to always give them a good "hair cut" after they have flowered otherwise they become ragged and untidy. Cut them back to just below where they flowered (the seeds remain) with scissors if the plants are small or with shears as they get bigger. Good luck! Lovely plants
Thanks everyone. Feel as if I have been a naughty girl to neglect them I shall definitely take more care from now on and give them more TLC after using them. In addition at home, looks as if the best solution would be to beg OH if I can have some rafter space in his garage to keep the the long canes.
Great. Problem solved!
Thanks for replying - been on granny duty since posting this yesterday.
I generally keep them either lying flat on the ground at the back of my allotment or along some brackets my husband has put on the back of the workshop. They become brittle and snap easily.
Hello All
At this time of year I am getting my bamboo canes ready for my runner beans and as usual, every year I have to buy more to make up for the reduced length due to the ends rotting. They only seem to last about 2 years full length before I have to remove a foot or so to make them strong enough to push into the ground. Very annoying.
So my question is, does anyone have a tried and tested remedy for prolonging their life? I usually remove them during my autumn tidy up as soon as the crop has finished so it's not as if they are left in the ground over wet winters. This year I thought I might buy the longest length I can find so that if I do have to chop them, they would last a bit longer. I found the green painted metal ones I bought for my sweet peas a few years ago were a complete waste of money as the coating peeled off in no time at all.
Does anyone perhaps dip them in a solution or paint them or something?
Thanks chicky
Just typed a load and then zapped it away by mistake so here I go again
I was thinking of trying a few flower seeds which state on pkt can be sown in Feb. Doing as you say and opening vents of HP for a few days when germinated, I wondered if it might work if I then transferred them to unheated greenhouse, and place them on shelves with the zipped up plastic covers on they originally came with to keep them warmer out there and also cover the trays with lids .That way it might take away any excess cold.
OH doesn't like trays on windowsills and besides, things used to get so leggy
Would that be feasible do you think?
I use the gardman plastic covered mini greenhouses without the covers as shelving for seed trays in my unheated greenhouse. I have figured that as the greenhouse is a high sided one, I should be able to put the clear cover over the shelves to provide extra warmth in there instead of bubble wrap.

41 Years Ago: Led Zeppelin Release 'Houses of the Holy'
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant look back on Led Zeppelin's fifth and arguably most eclectic album, which was released on March 28, 1973.
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant look back on Led Zeppelin's fifth and arguably most eclectic album, which was released on March 28, 1973.
Update: Chad Channing will not be entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the other members of Nirvana. Read about why there was confusion in our latest story on the matter.
While many recognize Nirvana as Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl, the band actually had other members along the way, and one of those members will join Nirvana when they're inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.
Soundgarden may be back as a fully functioning, modern act releasing new tunes, but the legendary group opted for a bit of nostalgia Thursday night (March 13) in Austin, Texas. As promised, the band delivered their 1994 classic 'Superunknown' in full to celebrate its 20th anniversary.
On Sept. 13, 1993, Nirvana released what would become their final studio album, 'In Utero.' The influence of 'In Utero' and the rest of Nirvana's discography are still very present, and many celebrated rock and metal acts have teamed up to record 'In Utero: In Tribute' just in time for Record Store Day.
November 24, 1991 was an incredibly sad day for the rock world. Not only was it the day Queen legend Freddie Mercury died, but the day KISS drummer Eric Carr passed away, as well. Well over 20 years after Carr's death, the drummer's heirs have filed a lawsuit against KISS for "untold payments" stretching back all the way to Carr's passing.
Slash has a jam packed schedule at this year's South By Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas. One of the events he'll be a part of is March 13's Jimi Hendrix Celebration.
Motley Crue's 'The Dirt' will be heading to the big screen soon, and there have been films chronicling the lives of rock bands over the years, but former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash says he's not interested in ever seeing a biopic of the early years of GN'R ever gracing the silver screen.
Talk about being fired up.
Congratulations to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee. The iconic rocker just announced that he is engaged to German singer and dancer Sofia Toufa, who is professionally known as SOFI.
Canada continued its dominance over the U.S in Olympic men's hockey on Friday. Here's a recap of all the day's action in Sochi:
For those about to rock, here's some big news: AC/DC have been relatively quiet these past couple of years, but it looks like 2014 is gonna be a big year for the legendary hard rock act. Singer Brian Johnson says the band plans to hit the studio this spring, as well as plan a new tour.

Rosie The Riveter from Lee's Summit
June 21, 2014
Photo by Bill Morrow
By Carlee Edwards
At the height of WWII, to fill in the gaps left by the thousands of men who were drafted, jobs that were previously closed to women began to open up.
Among these positions, the aviation industry had the greatest increase of female workers as more than 310,000 women joined the aviation work force.
Kansas City quickly became an epicenter for producing planes during the war. In the midst of this war 18-year-old Emma Jean Shannon, now Emma Jean Newland a current resident of Lee's Summit, moved to the city from her family's farm 50 miles from Kansas City after graduating high school, looking for work.
In the time of great depression jobs were scarce but Emma found work at the aviation plant in KCK's Fairfax District riveting on B-25 planes, much like the iconic campaign figure 'Rosie the Riveter.'
"I hadn't been to Kansas City even three times," Newland said. "Someone just told me about the job once I'd gotten there so I decided to check it out."
This past weekend, just two days before her 90th birthday, Emma Jean Newland was given the opportunity to fly in one of the B-25 bombers she helped build, on an 'honor flight' over downtown Kansas City.
Immediately following the Flag Day ceremony on Saturday, June 14 at the National Airline History Museum, Newland and veteran Ray Hawks were met by the Axis Nightmare, a vintage World War Two bomber.
The B-25 bomber with its 160,000 moving parts and 150,000 rivets was used primarily in the island campaigns against the Japanese forces.
"I was definitely Rosie The Riveter," Newland said at the event. "I worked on that flap right there on the tail assembly. I put the rivets in."
More than 6,600 B-25 were produced at the Fairfax plant.
"I started to work at the plant August 8, 1942 and worked there until the war was over in 1945," Newland said. "I haven't seen one of these planes since then. I never got to fly in one until now."
Recalling the time when she first began to work at the plant Emma explained that she had first attended Lathrop Trade School to train for six weeks before going on to work on the North American Aviation assembly line. She was paid $1.10 an hour when she first started out, but was later promoted to 'Lead Man,' and was paid an extra 15 cents.
"Everything was about defense," Newland explained. "They stopped making car batteries, washing machines, and things like that... everything was focused on the war."
Newland reminisced on the days of the war and living in the city during the depression while being a woman in the work force.
"Back then you could walk anywhere, go wherever you wanted and nobody bothered you," Newland said about living in the city.
"It was 10 cents for bus transfers to get around. All the girls would ride the bus."
She explained how they'd work long and odd hours so the buses could manage to transport everyone.
"You didn't go to work from 8:00 to 5:00; you'd work from 7:42 to 4:42 or something odd like that because there were so many people."
The plant required all the girls to wear their hair up in a bandana and to wear pants as opposed to housedresses, which were the common attire of women before the war.
"I started wearing pants during the war, and I've been wearing them ever since," Newland said.
Along with working on the assembly line, Newland and the other girls would give in other ways to help with the war effort.
"We gave blood and gave bonds from our pay checks to support the war," she explained.
Newland spoke quite fondly of her time working in the Fairfax plant, and was thrilled to get the chance to fly in one of the B-25's that she'd worked on.
It was during a museum tour put on by Lee's Summit Bank back in March at the National Airline History Museum that Newland mentioned she had worked as a riveter on the planes to the tour guide.
"He pointed at me and said 'I want to talk to you', but I had no idea what about," Newland said.
From there things fell into place for Newland to attend the Flag Day ceremony on the 14th and go up in the Axis Nightmare.
"I was really surprised," Newland said. "And it was a great honor to finally fly in one of those planes."

In a solid golf ball comprising a solid core and a cover and having a weight of 41-44.5 grams, the cover has a Shore D hardness of 40-53 degrees. The relationship between core hardness and cover hardness is optimized for shots at low head speeds of less than 40 m/sec.
1. A solid golf ball comprising. a solid core and a cover wherein said cover has a Shore D hardness in the range of 40 to 53 said solid core has a hardness corresponding to a distortion of 3.0 to 5 mm under a load of 100 kg, and the ball has a weight in the range of 41 to 44.5 grams.
2. The solid golf ball of claim 1 wherein said golf ball has a weight in the range of 42 to 44 grams.
3. The solid golf ball of claim 1 wherein said cover has a hardness in the range of 43 to 53.
4. The solid golf ball of claim 1 wherein said cover has a radial thickness of 1.4 to 2.6 mm.
5. The solid golf ball of claim 1 wherein said solid core has a diameter in the range of 38 to 40 mm.
6. The solid golf ball of claim 1 wherein said solid core has a weight in the range of 24 to 37 grams.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a solid golf ball and more particularly, to a solid golf ball which is improved in flight distance, feel and spin when hit at a relatively low head speed. It is thus suitable for golf players with a low head speed including beginner, female and senior players.
2. Prior Art
For golf balls, various proposals have been made for improving their flying distance and hitting feel. This is also true for solid golf balls.
Most of these advanced golf balls target those golf players who swing at a relatively high head speed of 45 m/sec. or higher, that is, experienced players. Then those golf players capable of high head speed swing can take advantage of the advanced balls, enjoying an increased flying distance and a pleasant feeling. However, those golf players having slow head speed, including beginner, female and senior players cannot take full advantages of the advanced balls including an increased flight distance and pleasant feel. The reason is that the flight performance is more dependent on a head speed since a weaker force applied to the ball upon impact causes a smaller deformation of the ball. Especially on shots with a driver and long iron, the ball is projected relatively low and follows a relatively low trajectory, failing to cover a long distance.
For those players with a low head speed, there are available golf balls having a core soft enough to take advantage of restitution. Since a low head speed player can impart only a small force to the ball upon impact, no sufficient restitution is available from a hard ball. For the ball with a soft core, a hard cover must be used when the restitution of the ball as a whole is considered. Then the ball has the structure that the core is soft and the cover is hard. The hard cover detracts from spin receptivity and renders the ball difficult to control upon approach shots with a sand wedge or #7 iron.
Thus simply using soft cores is not considered suitable for golf balls targeting low-head speed players. It is desirable to have a solid golf ball finding an appropriate compromise between core softness and cover hardness to be optimum for low-head speed players.
An object of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved solid golf ball which will exhibit an appropriate trajectory and flight performance for players with a low head speed and has sufficient spin receptivity to be easy to control upon approach shots.
According to the invention, there is provided a solid golf ball comprising a solid core and a cover. The cover has a Shore D hardness in the range of 40 to 53 degrees and the ball has a weight in the range of 41 to 44.5 grams. Preferably the solid core has a hardness corresponding to a distortion of 2 to 5 mm under a load of 100 kg.
These and further features of the present invention will be apparent with reference to the following description and drawings, wherein:
FIGS. 1 (a) and 1(b) are schematic views of a club head and a golf ball before and after impact, respectively; and
FIG. 2 is a cross section of a golf ball according to this invention.
Through the research work, we have obtained the following findings.
(i) Upon hitting at a low head speed, a relatively light ball will fly higher and is expected to travel a longer distance because of a less influence of weight.
(ii) A relatively soft ball is suited for hitting at a low head speed. Since hitting at a low head speed gives a smaller force to the ball upon impact, a hard ball will undergoes a smaller amount of deformation which exacerbates restitution. In contrast, an appropriately soft ball is efficient to convert ball deformation into a reaction force which favorably serves for increasing the flying distance.
(iii) The efficiency of restitution can be improved by reducing the weight of a ball as in (i). Referring to FIGS. 1(a) and 1(b), the relation between a club head and a ball upon impact is discussed. The club head has a weight Wh and is swung at a head speed Vh before impact and a head speed Vh' after impact. The ball has a weight wb and a stationary velocity Vb' (=0) before impact and is launched at an initial velocity Vb immediately after impact. The relation of kinetic energy between the club head and the ball gives equation (2).
WhVh=WhVh'+WbVb (2)
The relation of restitution between the club head and the ball gives equation (3): ##EQU1## wherein e is a coefficient of restitution determined from the club and the ball. The initial velocity Vb of the ball is then determined from equations (2) and (3) and represented by equation (4). ##EQU2## This suggests that the lower the ball weight Wb, the higher is the initial velocity Vb, provided that the head speed Vh and the club head weight Wh are fixed.
(iv) When it is desired to make the ball soft, the following problems arise with a solid golf ball of a two-piece structure consisting of a core and a cover or multi-piece structure. (a) If the core is made soft, it is generally difficult to insure restitution. A hard cover must then be used at the sacrifice of spin and feel. (b) In the case of (a), it would be effective to reduce the weight of the ball. This requires to reduce the percent loading of filler and increase the rubber fraction, which eventually leads to a soft core with high restitution. Then a soft cover can be used, leading to improvements in spin and feel. (c) It is generally believed that a softer cover leads to a higher spin rate and a shorter flight distance. Since the hardness (or softness) of the cover has a small influence on spin in the region of soft cores, making the cover relatively soft does not invite a shortage of flight distance.
Based on these findings (i) to (iv), the inventors made a study on a lightweight solid golf ball consisting essentially of a core and a cover in search of the relation between cover hardness and core hardness which is effective for not only improving spin receptivity and feeling upon approach, but also increasing restitution against impact at low head speeds so as to increase the flight distance. The inventors have found that in a lightweight solid golf ball comprising a solid core and a cover and having a weight of 41 to 44.5 grams, when the hardness of the core and the hardness of the cover are adjusted such that the cover has a Shore D hardness of 40 to 53 degrees and preferably the solid core has a hardness corresponding to a distortion of 2 to 5 mm under a load of 100 kg, the ball is not only improved in spin receptivity and feeling, but also increased in restitution against impact at low head speeds. An increase of flight distance is effectively accomplished. Additionally, the ball is easy to control upon approach shots with a sand wedge or #7 iron.
Now the present invention is described in further detail.
As mentioned above, in connection with a lightweight solid golf ball 25 illustrated in FIG. 2 consisting essentially of a solid core 1 and a cover 2 enclosing the core, the present invention intends to improve the spin receptivity, feel and flying distance upon shots at low head speeds and to improve the controllability upon approach shots by optimizing the relation between cover hardness and core hardness. More specifically, adjustment is done on a lightweight solid golf ball having a weight of 41 to 44.5 grams such that the cover 2 has a Shore D hardness of 40 to 53 degrees and preferably the solid core 1 has a hardness corresponding to a distortion of 2 to 5 mm under a load of 100 kg.
The solid golf ball of the invention should have a weight of 41 to 44.5 grams, preferably 42 to 44 grams. Balls having a weight of less than 41 grams fly too high and are aerodynamically affected by the wind during flight, and fail to travel a long distance because of a too low inertia moment. Balls having a weight of more than 44.5 grams have no significant difference from conventional two-piece solid golf balls and cannot exert their performance upon low head speed hitting against the objects of the invention.
In the solid golf ball of the invention, the cover 2 should have a Shore D hardness in the range of 40 to 53 degrees, especially 43 to 53 degrees. A cover with a Shore D hardness of less than 40 degrees is too soft to provide an initial velocity and a flight distance. A Shore D hardness of more than 53 degrees exacerbates durability and spin characteristics and would reduce controllability upon approach shots. The gage of the cover 2 is not critical although it preferably has a gage (radial thickness) of 1.4 to 2.6 mm, especially 1.6 to 2.3 mm.
The hardness of the solid core 1 is not particularly limited although the solid core should preferably have a hardness corresponding to a distortion of 2 to 5 mm, especially 2.5 to 4.7 mm under a load of 100 kg. Cores with a distortion of less than 2 mm would be too hard, resulting in balls presenting unpleasant hitting feel and inadequate for low head speed hitting. Cores with a distortion of more than 5 mm would be too soft, losing restitution and durability. The diameter, weight and specific gravity of the solid core are not critical and may be properly adjusted insofar as the objects of the invention are attained. Usually the solid core 1 has a diameter of 38 to 40 mm, especially 38.2 to 39.7 mm and a weight of 24 to 37 grams, especially 25 to 35 grams.
As mentioned above, the golf ball of the invention is a solid golf ball having a solid core and a cover enclosing the core. It may be a two-piece solid golf ball or a three or multi-piece solid golf ball wherein the core or cover is composed of a plurality of layers. Better results are obtained with two-piece solid golf balls.
In the solid golf ball of the invention, the solid core 1 may be formed of any desired material by any desired method. Any of well-known materials may be used for the core insofar as a golf ball with desirable properties is obtained.
More particularly, the solid core of the solid golf ball according to the invention is formed from a conventional rubber composition by a conventional technique while properly adjusting vulcanizing conditions and formulation. Usually the core is formed of a composition comprising a base rubber, a crosslinking agent, a co-crosslinking agent, and an inert filler. The base rubber may be selected from natural rubber and synthetic rubbers used in conventional solid golf balls. The preferred base rubber is 1,4-polylbutadiene having at least 40% of cis-structure. The polybutadiene may be blended with natural rubber, polyisoprene rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber or the like. The crosslinking agent is typically selected from organic peroxides such as dicumyl peroxide and di-t-butyl peroxide, especially dicumyl peroxide. About 5 to 40 parts by weight of the crosslinking agent is generally blended with 100 parts by weight of the base rubber. The co-crosslinking agent is typically selected from metal salts of unsaturated fatty acids, inter alia, zinc and magnesium salts of unsaturated fatty acids having 3 to 8 carbon atoms (e.g., acrylic acid and methacrylic acid) though not limited thereto. Zinc acrylate is especially preferred. Examples of the inert filler include zinc oxide, barium sulfate, silica, calcium carbonate, and zinc carbonate, with zinc oxide and barium sulfate being often used. The amount of the filler blended is preferably 0 to about 30 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the base rubber although the amount largely varies with the specific gravity of the core and cover, the standard weight of the ball, and other factors. In the practice of the invention, the amount of the filler (typically zinc oxide and barium sulfate) is properly selected so as to provide the desired hardness and weight to the core.
A core-forming composition is prepared by kneading the above-mentioned components in a conventional mixer such as a Banbury mixer and roll mill, and it is compression or injection molded in a core mold. The molded core is then cured by heating at a sufficient temperature for the crosslinking agent and co-crosslinking agent to function (for example, a temperature of about 130 to 170� C. for a combination of dicumyl peroxide as the crosslinking agent and zinc acrylate as the co-crosslinking agent), obtaining a solid core.
The cover 2 enclosing the core is formed of a well-known composition, typically based on an ionomer resin. The ball parameters required by the invention are conveniently satisfied by a mixture of two or more ionomer resins. If desired, well-known additives such as titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, and magnesium stearate may be added to the ionomer resin for adjusting a specific gravity and hardness. UV absorbers, antioxidants and dispersing aids such as metal soaps may be added if desired. The cover composition may be molded over the solid core by any desired method, for example, by surrounding the core by a pair of preformed hemispherical cups followed by heat compression molding or by injection molding the cover composition over the core.
Like conventional golf balls, the golf ball of the invention is formed with a multiplicity of dimples in the cover surface. The ball is further subject to finishing steps including buffing, painting and stamping.
The solid golf ball of the invention is constructed as mentioned above. The diameter of the solid core and the gage of the cover are as defined above. The hardness and diameter of the ball as a whose are not critical although the ball preferably has a hardness as expressed by a distortion of 1.8 to 5.5 mm, especially 2.0 to 5.0 mm under a load of 100 kg. The ball should have a diameter in accordance with the Rules of Golf, that is, a diameter of at least 41.15 mm for the small size and at least 42.67 mm for the large size.
The solid golf ball of the invention is best suited for golfers who swing at a low head speed. The term "low head speed" means a head speed of less than 40 m/sec. when a driver (#1W) is used as a club. Therefore, the solid golf ball of the invention is best suited for golfers with a low head speed of less than 40 m/sec.
According to the present invention, a solid golf ball characterized by a relatively light weight and a relationship between solid core hardness and cover hardness optimized for low head speed hitting exhibits improved spin, feel and flight distance upon low head speed hitting. The ball is best suited for those golf players with a low head speed including beginner, female and senior players.
Examples of the present invention are given below by way of illustration and not by way of limitation. All parts are by weight.
A solid core was prepared by milling a solid core-forming rubber composition of the formulation shown in Table 1 in a roll mill and vulcanizing it in a mold at 155� C. for about 20 minutes. A cover-forming composition of the formulation shown in Table 1 was then injection molded over the solid core, obtaining seven golf balls.
It is noted that the golf ball on the surface was formed with two types of large and small dimples arranged in an octahedral pattern so that the dimples occupied 65�3% of the entire surface area. This dimple arrangement should not be construed as limiting the invention.

In Table 1, Surlyn and Himilan are the trade names of ionomer resin commercially available from E. I. duPont and Mitsui duPont Chemical K.K., respectively.
The golf balls were examined for flying performance, spin, and feeling by the following tests.
Using a swing robot, the ball was hit by a driver (#1W) at a head speed of 35 m/sec. (HS35) for determining a carry, total distance, and angle.
Using a swing robot, the ball was hit by a sand wedge (#SW) at a head speed of 19 m/sec. and by a No. 7 iron (#7I) at a head speed of 30 m/sec. The behavior of the ball immediately after impact was observed by taking photographs. A spin rate was determined by photographic image analysis.
Five amateur players with a head speed of 35 m/sec. actually hit the ball to judge the hitting feel. The rating was "⊚" for a very soft feel, "O" for a soft feel, and "Δ" for a rather hard feel.
The results are shown in Table 2.

As is evident from Table 2, the golf ball of Comparative Example 1 having a greater weight did not fly a long distance and presented a less pleasant hitting feel and unsatisfactory spin. The ball of Comparative Example 2 showed less spin susceptibility, hard hitting feel and unsatisfactory flight distance since its cover was too hard. Although the ball of Comparative Example 3 presented pleasant hitting feel, its spin receptivity was insufficient and its flight distance was short, as compared with the ball of Example 3 having the identical ball weight, because the core was too soft and hence, the balance between core hardness and cover hardness is improper. In contrast, the golf balls of Examples 1 to 4 offered an increased flight distance, a high spin rate and pleasant hitting feel when hit at a low head speed of 35 m/sec.
Although some preferred embodiments have been described, many modifications and variations may be made thereto in the light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.

Reforming the World Monetary System
Fritz Machlup and the Bellagio Group
Not available
moreAt a time when monetary systems are under increasing pressure from external shocks and the need to combat recessionary trends, it is vital that we understand previous attempts to deal with such problems. Focusing on the career of Fritz Machlup, Connell presents the story of the Bellagio Group and its contribution to modern finance. Initiated by Machlup with William Fellner and Robert Triffin, the Bellagio Group was made up of thirty-two non-government academic economists. During the years between 1964 and 1977 the Group met eighteen times and made a series of recommendations for policymakers. Connell examines the Group's archives to find out what caused the need for a change in the gold standard, what macroeconomic effects the Bellagio Group's policies were expected to have and the extent of their influence on modern-day systems. less
