- Arsenal transfers: Nastasic to do a reverse Sanga?
- Arsene Wenger confirms Manchester United interest in Thomas Vermaelen
- Who can Arsenal get in the Champions League qualifying draw?
Hello there and welcome to the Emirates where Arsenal are holding a members day.
What a members day is I'm not entirely sure but it comes just weeks after the Gunners Fanshare scheme closed so will anyone actually be there?
I'm jesting of course, I'm sure it will be loads of fun.
At the same time Arsene Wenger is speaking to the press ahead of a busy weekend. Things we can expect him to chat about;
- Champions League playoff draw
- Community Shield on Sunday against Man City
- His favourite member Arsenal membership members.
Stick with us here for all of the words that come out of Wengers' face and the best bits from members day.
#Emirates Stadium is getting ready for #AFCMembersDay. Take a look. https://t.co/rRELwp2FHt— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
The excitement is building already on Twitter for members' day and...
*holds finger to ear*
THIS JUST IN! There will be a crossbar challenge by the Arsenal players on the pitch!
Well things have just been kicked up a notch folks with that news. We'll have all the action and reaction to this massive update.
Meanwhile, here's an excited Arsenal fan on her way to the Emirates.
Ready to go!

The members day selfies have begun.
Here's Hannah and her family in what looks like the underground car park of the Emirates but what could easily be Ikea or something.
I've got a feeling there will be loooooooads of selfies throughout the day but the big question is; who's going to be the first to get one with Arsene Wenger?
Folks...your challenge awaits you.

While we wait for Wenger and pals to emerge let's take a look at the Arsenal transfer rumours of the day.
Man City defender Matija Nastasic could be on his way down south in a reverse Sagna/Nasri/Adebayor/Tour/Clichy move.
With Eliaquim Mangala about to join City, the Serbian will fall down the pecking order, so a move to the Gunners could be tempting.
He could be passing Thomas Vermaelen on the M1 as the Arsenal defender inches closer to a move to Manchester united...or Barcelona depending on who you beleive.
As predicted I'm drowning in pics and selfies from the Emirates as fans start to flood in to see their idols...and Mathieu Flamini.
The Arsenal players will be out for a bit of a training sesh in a bit and then will ping balls at the crossbar before we all head inside to hear what Arsene Wenger has to say.
My favourite pic, though, is from this chap Dan Short who tweeted a picture of...his shorts. How very meta.

The players are out and being introduced to the 5,000 or so fans that are at the Emirates.
(Don't these people have jobs?)
All the familiar faces are there including the likes of Joel Campbell, whose form at the World Cup with Costa Rica and in pre-season for the Gunners has thrown him right into Arsene Wenger's plans.
The players are now being put through their paces which I'm sure is thrilling viewing for the supporters here in the stadium.
Which players are there, then?
Thomas Vermaelen is out there and people aren't happy, given his imminent move away from the club.
Smilier faces welcome Theo Walcott who continues his recover from injury with a cameo today out on the pitch.
Meanwhile, new signings David Ospina, Mathieu Debuchy, Alexis Sanchez and Calum Chambers are here and doing all the warm ups and stuff.
Meanwhile, though, this is creepy...
Alexis in da house #afcmembersday pic.twitter.com/C0YmZqd7f8— Bernard (@thedogsbollock) August 7, 2014
Amazing moment on Arsenal Player as the presenter (whose name escapes me sorry. Dan something...) asks former Gunners midfielder Adrian Clarke what it's like to play under Arsene Wenger.
Clarke's response :"Actually, Wenger got rid of me when he came in."
To be fair Clarke brushed it off brilliantly and has been excellent so far, with his big cheesy grin and analysis.
I've got a lot of man love for Clarkey, seems like a good lad and knows his Arsenal stuff big time.
Now, I'm not saying Jack Wilshere can't be bothered but this pic doesn't make him look great.
All the other Arsenal players are doing a nice arm stretch above their arms but Wilshere? Nah he can't be having that.
Look at him just staring down the camera like "what you gonna do about it mate?'
The boys are warming up for #AFCMembersDay. Catch the full session on Player now. pic.twitter.com/xFLzr0RdLg— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
Oh Theo, I like you but mate...
The players are having an 8-a-side kick around across the pitch but little Theo, still recovering from injury, is watching from the sidelines.
Can we grab a quick word Theo? A hello to the fans maybe?
Instead we get some awkward waving and a mumbled message.
Don't give up the day job yeah?!
Theo #Walcott wanted to say hello to everyone at #AFCMembersDay and beyond. Here you go, Theo! https://t.co/GcNyQfnUTF— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
The Champions League qualifying draw is tomorrow and Arsenal are in but who could they get?
Well, they could be pit against either Athletic Bilbao, Lille, Copenhagen, Standard Liege or Besiktas.
One of these would mean a 3,144 mile round journey whereas one would be a short 348 mile road trip.
Which would be the best team for the Gunners to take on as they try to make the group stage?
Find out more about all those potential clashes here.
Arsenal - shortest and longest potential distance to travel (miles)
The first pics from the training sesh are in and you can see them below, folks.
Meanwhile, the strikers are having some pot shots at goal with a fancy shooting exercise down the Clock End.
I've been watching it for about five minutes and so far no-one has scored.
Indeed, Alexis Sanchez missed a terrible chance. Maybe he's just getting them out of the way before the season starts?
Oh...wait...Yaya Sanogo has just fired one home. The crowd go literally wild.
What has Aaron Ramsey been up to recently? His washing!
Well, not really. Ramsey popped along to Wembley to help support a grassroots scheme from McDonalds with Martin Keown, Casey Stoney and some lucky kids.
McDonalds are giving away 250,000 free kits to kids teams across the UK.
As part of the new programme McDonald's will be giving over 7,000 accredited clubs, with a junior team, the opportunity to order a brand new strip every year for the next four seasons with the potential for over 250,000 kits to be distributed to clubs across the UK.
The new accredited club kit scheme launched today in England will be rolled out in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland later in the year.
Check out the vid below.
Looks like the crossbar challenge is about to be upon us!
The players have completed their warm down and are hanging around waiting for something to happen.
Meanwhile, we're got some young Arsenal fans on the pitch. Not sure what they're going to do.
Maybe take on the first team in a match? That would be amazing. So far they're just running around in a circle. Doesn't fill me with confidence.
Gunnersaurus gets involved at #AFCMembersDay! pic.twitter.com/Dxe4QzvFxM— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
Haha they actually are playing against the Arsenal first team! Brilliant.
To be fair there are about 30 kids against one or two Arsenal players, who really don't seem bothered.
Currently 0-0, will keep you updated with that. Does it actually count as a pre-season friendly?
Imagine if one of the kids injured Jack Wilshere or something!
Meanwhile, Alexis Sanchez is having his photo taken with a whole bunch of fans wearing masks with his face on.
....pre-season, everyone! Pre-season.
Two quick goals in the kids versus first team match and it's 1-1 here.
Little Jimmy with a great left-foot finish across goal to give the kids the lead but Wojciech Szczesny races through to equalise from a long ball.
Huh! Typical Arsenal with the long ball.
The kids defending is terrible I'll be honest, no shape at all.
Oh wait, another goal for the kids! 2-1 now.
....pre-season, everyone. Pre-season.
And @13Szczesny13 celebrates (bottom right in this pic) pic.twitter.com/BXhoj8UYC7— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
Arsenal fans at the Gunners' annual open training session for young members have been sporting Alexis Sanchez masks to make the £33 million striker feel at home, or self-conscious, as Arsene Wenger's squad go through a light workout ahead of the Community Shield.
Sunday's date with Manchester City at Wembley will provide Arsenal with their first test of mettle after an appalling record against their top four rivals last season.
In the meantime, isn't it time we exported the Communism Shield abroad? Increasingly it has become an irrelevance, if not an inconvenience, on the pre-season calendar.
With Premier League chief Richard Scudamore keen to export a 39th game in the round-robin fixture list to far-flung parts, how about the Community Shield being played in New York, Singapore, Cape Town or Sydney, where English football's big guns would automatically sell out any sizeable venue?
It finishes 3-1 to the Junior Gunners and that's terrible preparation for the Community Shield.
I suspect those first-teamers will potentially be dropped for the clash against Manchester City on Sunday at Wembley.
They really didn't look like they were trying against their young opposition.
Meanwhile the kids looked very good, bags of potential amongst their ranks, and some future starts in there.
We'll be hearing from Arsene Wenger soon and I expect the journos to press him hard on this shocking defeat.
Want more pics from today? Well, click here good sir.
Also, check out this vine of Sanchez and Sanogo linking up to clinical effect.
I totally missed this during the afternoon too.
Could they end up being the Gunners top striking duo this season? Olivier Giroud probably wouldn't be a fan of that.
Still as the fans says: No Sanogo No party"
Tiki-taka Sanchez Sanogo https://t.co/mP6oJZQ4yH— ♕ KING ÖF LÖNDÖN ♕ (@goonerszone) August 7, 2014
Right. Here we go.
Arsene Wenger is here and making sounds with his mouth and here are the things coming out of his mouth...
"We have an opportunity to show we have grown [since the FA Cup final]. Man City will be a good test.
"We will have a similar squad against Man City to the Emirates Cup, unless we but someone but it doesn't look like that.
"Our World Cup winners are back on the 11th August. They will miss the start of the Premier League."
Arsene Wenger reveals Arsenal have received bids for club captain Thomas Vermaelen.
From Manchester United? "They are in the group," said Le Professeur.
Will he leave? "It could happen," said Wenger. "I sat down with Thomas this summer and we talked about his future."
Sounds like Vermaelen is off, then. And so to Wembley, to meet Manchester City, on Sunday.
"We are not ready physically but it's a good test - and exciting for us to go back to Wembley.
"The squad is completely similar unless we buy somebody before Sunday.
"There were four teams in the race last year - it could be five or six this season.
"Ideally we want to start strong, but our World Cup winners will not be back until next Monday and they will miss the start of the season.
"It's not ideal, but the World Cup final was only on July 13 and we need to give them a rest so they come back sharp."
More from Wenger:
On transfers: "We have three and a half weeks until the transfer market closes - we could still strengthen, but we have a big squad."
On Wilshere: "We have quite a few box-to-box players - Jack Wilshere as come back very fit."
On Calum Chambers: "I don't regret spending money on him, he can be a top player for us."
On the Community Shield: "For both teams on Sunday it's a check on how good they are and how well prepared they are."
A delicious barb from Monsieur Wenger on Frank Lampard's surprise loan move to their Community Shield opponents.
"If you look at a map, the shortest way from Chelsea to Manchester City is not to fly to New York first," said the Arsenal manager.
Some more tasty barbs from Wenger as his press conference rolls on here at the Emirates.
On Walcott: "He will come back into the group on August 31 - he is doing well but he's not ready yet."
On the title challenge: "We were never far away last year, we have more money to buy players now."
On Man Utd: "Certainly Man United come back into it [the title race]. There will be six teams fighting for the league this year."
And that's it from Wenger and his press conference ZINGERS!
Aside from slinging it to Frank Lampard and his recent move to Manchester City, the Frenchman confirmed the club had accepted offers for Thomas Vermaelen - including one from Manchester United.
He also told the world that Theo Walcott will return to match action at the end of August and his German trio Per Mertesacker, Mesut Ozil and Lukas Podolski will miss the season opener against Palace.
Just look at his little face. You just know that was the expression he pulled when he delivered that Lampard zinger.
That's all from the boss at Emirates Stadium. Look out for video on http://t.co/4KJlfLegFB soon! #AFCvMCFC pic.twitter.com/3nviFUprOi— Arsenal FC (@Arsenal) August 7, 2014
I feel like a career in standup comedy could be in the offering for Arsene...
Meanwhile, back at members day and the players are still out there on the Emirates pitch signing autographs.
Santi Cazorla has been lost amongst the Junior Gunners and might never be seen again.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is still out there diligently putting pen to paper to keep the fans happy. What a good lad.
Ox is still doing his marathon signing session for the fans, top guy #AFCMembersDay— Alex (@WindAFC6) August 7, 2014
Every day's a school day.
So, what did we learn from Wenger's press conference today?
Here's your friend and mine Ben Burrows with five things we can take awy from Wenger's headline 20-minute standup set.
The fun never stops on Arsenal members day, oh no.
Next up on the itinerary is a player Q&A session, where Alexis Sanchez is among seven first-team players that will be fielding questions from fans.
Also on board are Joel Campbell, David Ospina and Aaron Ramsey, so more from that when we get it.
To keep things ticking over though, let me inform you that young Gunner Austin Lipman has joined Boreham Wood on loan for the season. Which is nice for him.
This sounds fun.
I've heard Gunnersaurus has a mean backhand...
There's a table tennis table in the middle of the room. Fans will face off against players
#AFCMembersDay #gooners— #NoSanogoNoParty (@RamblinGooner) August 7, 2014
So it sounds like Thomas Vermaelen's days at the club are numbered, after Wenger revealed that Arsenal have received several bids for the Belgian.
But where would that leave the Gunners in terms of defensive cover? Well, we've just happened to have done a piece where we try and figure out which Premier League side has the best strength in depth.
Click here to see how each of last season's top ten's squads shape up.
More words direct from the gob of Arsene Wenger RE Vermaelen here, as he discusses how much he wants for the centre-back.
"We never speak about the price," the Arsenal boss said. "I sat down with him and we talked about his future. "Ideally, yes, [we would sell him abroad]. It is an option. I don't want to tell you how many clubs but we have offers from abroad as well.
"Look, I said since the start of pre-season that it could happen that Thomas leaves us. He needs to play now. He had an outstanding attitude and behaviour but he is in a position where it is difficult to stand in his way if he finds an interesting opportunity."
Twitter is still reeling from Wenger's ZING over Frank Lampard's recent travel arrangements, as Arsenal fans everywhere and recover from their sides' recently splitting.
And our Taking Things Literally department has been hard at work over the last few minutes and have worked out exactly how far Lamps will have travelled on his recent adventures...
Wenger's calculations on distance for Lampard to travel
208.3 miles
Chelsea to Man City
6793 miles
Chelsea to Man City (via New York)
We have yet more Wenger quotes for you here now, fleshing out a couple of lines we brought you earlier when the Gunners boss was asked if he'd be bringing in any new faces:
"It could happen, yes," he said. "I cannot give you any names specifically who will join us at the moment. We are not close to signing anybody and it will be the wrong information.
"We have still three-and-a-half weeks before the transfer market is closed and we are open to it. But it has to be a player who can strengthen our squad because let's not forget that Joel Campbell has come back plus the addition of Debuchy, Chambers and [Alexis] Sanchez who have joined us.
"We have already bought four players, we have not lost players until now so we have a big squad at the moment. At the moment I can't give you any news but we have not closed the door."
Wenger chewed the fat on all things Calum Chambers earlier, saying he didn't regret splashing the cash on such a raw talent.
"He's 19 years of age, he's a young promising talent and when you're a manager you believe in the players when you buy them," said the Gunners boss.
"I'm a great believer that we spent a lot of money for him, that's true but in the longer term it is well spent - that is the most important thing. When a player is bought for a longer period you can never say it's expensive. At the moment it's expensive yes but I don't regret it.
"He can play a major role because in what I observe he has the qualities to impose himself in this part of the team. I believe he can play in defensive midfield and that's where I see him."
The chitter-chatter on Sami Khedira has gone pretty quiet over the last couple of weeks and Wenger took time earlier to confirm that the Real Madrid man be heading to the Emirates this summer.
"We were never close to signing him because Jack Wilshere has come back fit and in midfield we have quite a few offensive box-to-box players," he explained.
So that's cleared up, then.
Well, time for us to call it a day on here.
We've had joy, we've had fun, we've had Arsenal training in the sun. And we've also had Wenger cracking wise and the usual Gunnersaurus cameo.
I do hope Arsenal members day has been everything you hoped it would be when you woke up this morning.
Have a read of some Wenger quotes here, check out the five things we learned from his press conference here and then if I could nudge you onto our transfer live blog, where we'll pilot you through the rest of the day's big transfer stories, that would be grand.

We stayed Jan/Feb 2013. Wayne and Mary met us on arrival. Wayne is a man of his word (just like Lenny). Any concern was addressed immediately. Pool always warm/clean. I fished off the wall during the day. Picked up some small Snapper and many catfish on live shrimp. Manatee do stop in on occasion. Kitchen well equipped and all in working order. Cooked on the grill for a Super Bowl party. The house is easy to keep clean. Quiet neighborhood. Publix 2.5 miles away. Bridge to Fort Myers is 16 minutes away. Fine for guests with the second bathroom arrangement. WiFi and TVs were fine observed armadillos, owls, cranes, eagles, ospreys all nearby. Good bike lanes for walking/biking.

We are a retired couple, and this was our first time renting a house,so we were a little nervous about everything. The owner (Lenny), was terrific in helping us with everything we needed. Really nice guy. The couple who manage the place for him ( Wayne & Mary) were also terrific. Anything we needed,tips on where to go,things about the house, anything,...they were always there for us. As for the house itself,it was beautifull,extremely spacious and comfortable,and had everything we could possibly need supplied in the house. Gorgeous pool and lanai.It's in a suburban area, so it was nice and quiet also, which was nice. Probably the number one thing that impressed me the most was how clean and bug free it was. This is Florida..bugs all over, but not one to be found in this house. Even the lanai and pool area (and covered screening) was free of any insects. I also liked that there was no electricity fee, which all the other houses we looked at had. We have already told Lenny that we plan to come back on a yearly basis. Very nice house and a very nice experience for us.

Originally written on Indians Baseball Insider | Last updated 11/12/14
On successful teams or at least competitive ones it becomes easy to overemphasize or highlight specific player performance while undervaluing other complimentary production. This probably occurs because polarizing production is most interesting at least in terms of penetrating or attentional biases. Be it the recent ineptitude of Mark Reynolds or the scorched earth Jason Kipnis leaves behind we enjoy obsessing over extremes in production which is not an unreasonable thing. In fact, watching Michael Bourn plate the first two runs against the Twins Friday night probably instigated my interest in his production. One of the things that has his value flying under the radar is that entering the first game post all-star break. Bourn had played just 68 of the Indians 95 games. Outside of being the center of tremendously easy twitter hash tags like #Bourntorun, the speedy centerfielder has been an altogether uncelebrated commodity. Having missed over a quarter of the season Bourn is still on...

PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR DEFORMING A THERMOPLASTIC LAYER This invention relates to a process for deforming a thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layer suitable for recording a deformation image or containing such an image, by electrostatic, if desired image-wise charging, followed either by image-wise exposure and heating, or by heating alone, and to an apparatus suitable for performing the process.
Processes for the preparation of deformation images by electrophotographic means are known. The recording material comprises support of dielectric, possibly transparent material, e.g. plastic film or glass, which may be provided with an electrically conductive layer of tin oxide, aluminum or the like, or of an electrocon ductive supporting material, e.g. an aluminum foil. On this support, there is a layer of a thermoplastic resin, preferably mixed with photoconductive substances, or these substances may be in a separate layer. The surface of the material may be provided with an electrically non-conductive layer which alters the reflection of light. The electrophotographic recording material is electrostatically charged under a corona device, image wise exposed, and then softened. During softening, the surface of the plasticized resin becomes deformed under the influence of the latent charge image and forms a deformation image. Different kinds of deformation images are obtained, depending on the electrostatic charge. In the case of a relatively high charge, the surface of the charged areas assumes an irregular structure, so that an image produced by light scattering is formed which can be viewed or projected (frost image). lf the material is charged to a lower potential, a
continuous relief line is produced on the otherwise smooth background, which line marks the boundary where there is a discontinuity in the magnitude of the charge, caused by image-wise exposure (photoplastic recording). The relief images produced are viewed through a phase contrast microscope or made visible by means of a Schlieren optical system.
Softening of the layer provided with a charge image may be effected by treatment with solvent vapors or by immersion in a solvent. Alternatively, it may be effected by the application of heat, e.g. by immersion in a warm dielectric liquid. Frequently, the heat energy required for development is supplied by irradiation. By the same technique, the deformation image produced may be erased by softening.
ln the known processes, the recorded original is reproduced as a whole. This has the disadvantage that in the case of a faulty composition of originals, the whole image has to be deleted by the softening procedure described. So far, it has not been possible to effect a partial deformation, i.e. to correct signal lines or points, or to complete the desired information or delete undesired information. Further, it has not been possible hitherto to gradually change the recorded information at different points of time. However, such techniques are of great importance for modern systems of information.
The present invention provides a process for producing or erasing a deformation image within a very narrow zone and at different points of time.
This is achieved by a process for deforming a thermoplastic, preferably photo-conductive layer suitable for recording a deformation image or containing such image, by electrostatic, if desired image-wise charging, followed either by image-wise exposure and heating, or by heating alone,- in which process deformation is effected only in a portion of the layer, by using templates during charging and/or heating, and heating is performed by a dry thermal treatment. I
The term deforming a thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layer" comprises the formation as well as the erasure or correction of a deformation image.
The deformation image is produced in the usual manner, by spraying electric charges, if desired in the form of an image, upon the thermoplastic layer, or, in the case of a thermoplastic photoconductive layer, by charging, image-wise exposure, and thermal development. The erasure ofa deformation image is performed by heat treatment. Correction of a deformation image is effected by erasure of one image and formation of another.
For deforming a portion only of the layer, appropriate templates are used, e.g. high voltage electrodes or counter-electrodes of suitable shape for electrostatic charging, and appropriately shaped cooled or heated templates which are in contact with the recording material, for erasure. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, deformation of the layer is performed by lines or points.
In this manner, a desired alteration of the existing information is achieved without influencing the information stored in neighboring areas.
The process of the invention for line-wise or pointwise deformation may be applied to all types of originals and writing. It is of particular advantage, however, for use in the micro recording field. In this field, reduction scales of 6:1 to about 30:l, and in special cases even larger, are usual. The deformation process according to the present invention is particularly suitable for holographic recordings.
The size ofa hologram may be reduced down to areas within the range of square millimeters, without substantially impairing the visibility of the image by the signalnoise ratio. Therefore, it is possible to store on a recording material so-called sub-holograms in the form of small holograms which are spaced from each other and preferably are arranged in lines. According to the present process, it is possible to selectively insert or erase individual sub-holograms whose size corresponds to side lengths of a few millimeters or even fractions of a millimeter. Since a combination of methods is possible, ie to produce sub-holograms by means oflaser beams in one area and insert alphanumerical characters by image-wise exposure in other areas, an effective method is obtained for coding the holograms in such a manner that a certain hologram may be selected by techniques usual in the micro-recording field.
It has been found that charge images present on a thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layer, can be converted into deformation images by heat irradiation, e.g. by infra-red rays, without substantially influencing neighboring deformation images during thermal development. Obviously, the formation of deformation images under the influence of electrostatic repulsion within the charge image proceeds much faster than the levelling of deformation images.
According to the present invention, charges which are confined to a very narrow zone may be applied to the thermoplastic layer by means of electron beams. Charging by means of a corona device is technically less expensive, however. For this purpose, a potential of some thousand volts is applied to a thin wire or a comb of metal needles, so that charges are sprayed upon the recording material lying beneath the corona, while it is grounded from the back, either directly or via a counter-electrode.
When using this charging method, it must be taken into account whether the thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layer is applied to a non-conductive supporting film, or is on an electrically conductive intermediate layer.
The invention will be further illustrated by reference to the accompanying drawings in which FIG. 1 illustrates the fundamental processes for charging a recording material which contains no electrically conductive intermediate layer,
FIG. 2a-2d indicate various shapes and types of templates,
FIG. 3 illustrates a process for developing or erasing deformation images along a narrow region,
FIG. 4 illustrates an infra-red radiator for heating an area of recording material to be developed or erased,
FIG. 5 illustrates the fundamental process used to produce special deformation images on thermoplastic photoconductive surfaces on which deformation images are already present. In FIG. 5 the recording material contains no conductive intermediate layer,
FIG. 6 illustrates thermal development of the material shown in FIG. 5,
FIG. 7 illustrates contact bars for adjusting an image, and
FIG. 8 illustrates an apparatus according to the invention including a closed, circular movement of the recording material.
FIG. 1 illustrates the fundamental process for charging a recording material which contains no electrically conductive intermediate layer. A grounded counterelectrode template in the form of a wedge-shaped cutting edge 4 of electroconductive material is pressed, from the back, i.e. from the support, upon the mounted recording material 1 comprising the support 2 and the thermoplastic photoconductive layer 3. The mounting for the recording material, e.g. a vacuum frame pro vided with an opening in the center thereof for the counter-electrode, is not shown in the drawing.
The recording material 1 faces a corona wire 5 which is connected to a high voltage source (not shown). The corona wire 5 is arranged such that it may be displaced relative to the recording material 1 Preferably, it is located opposite to the cutting edge 4. In any case, with this arrangement, the recording material is charged only in a narrow zone which is determined by the contact with the cutting edge 4. The width of the charging area may be reduced to a few tenths ofa millimeter. By image-wise exposure, a charge image may be produced within the charging area on the recording material and this becomes visible in the form of a deformation image during the following thermal developing process.
In order to be able to charge different areas of the recording material 1, it is necessary for the wedge-shaped cutting edge 4 to be arranged such that it can be moved relative to the recording material in the direction of the arrows shown in the drawing. When performing the process, either the recording material 1 or the cutting edge 4 may be stationary. The various positions may be adjusted by means of micrometer screws, for example.
The shape of the counter-electrode templates is not restricted to that of the wedge-shaped cutting edge 4 in FIG. I, but the template may also have a blunt edge, as shown in FIG. 2a, when a wider area is to be charged. For point-wise charging, the counter-electrode template may have a cone-shaped end, as shown in FIG. 2!). When charging individual lines, a counter-electrode of such shape also may be moved during the charging op eration. Further, it is possible for the counter-electrode template to be provided with a slot (FIG. 2c) or a hole (FIG. 2d), so that lines or points remain free from charges and no deformation image is formed in these areas. From the types of templates shown, more complicated shapes may be composed, if such shapes should become necessary. However, the preferred shapes for the counter-electrode templates are those having a pointed, cone-shaped, or wedge-shaped end.
For the local charging of recording materials consisting of thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layers on conductive supporting materials, or of supporting materials with a conductive intermediate layer, on the other hand, specially shaped, possibly movable high-voltage electrode templates must be used, which correspond in their shapes to the counter-electrodes described above.
The specially shaped high-voltage electrodes also may be used for recording materials without electro conductive intermediate layers when correspondingly shaped counter-electrodes are used, or when the recording materials are simply backed by an electroconductive material. In the interest of sharper focusing, however, the system comprising a shaped high-voltage electrodes and shaped counter-electrode is preferred.
The process steps used in the deformation process according to the invention for the purpose of developing or erasing relief images, by a dry thermal process, are the same for all recording materials described, regardless of whether they contain a photoconductor or not and are with or without an electroconductive intermediate layer. Obviously, with the recording materials of the invention, the equalization of temperature throughout the recording material is effected within fractions of a second. By placing the recording material upon a template of readily heat-conducting material, a temperature profile may be produced in the recording material even by uniform irradiation with infra-red rays, in that the areas in contact with the template are heated to noticeably lower temperatures than the freely stretched areas. This effect may be utilized for a locally defined thermal development of charge images into deformation images, or for the local erasure of deformation images by smoothing them out at elevated temper ature. Therefore, irradiation with heat rays is performed while the back of the recording material is in contact with shaped templates of readily heat conducting material.
The principle of the process for developing or erasing deformation images along a narrow region is illustrated in FIG. 3. A metal template 6 provided with a slot 7 is pressed from the back upon the support of a mounted recording material 1 comprising the support 2 and the thermoplastic layer 3 which carries the charge or relief image (the mounting for the recording material being not shown). The metal template 6 may be maintained at room temperature or it may be adjusted to another temperature, especially cooled. The recordingmaterial l faces a heating wire 8 which emits infra-red radiation. Alternatively. a laminar heating element or other infrared radiator may be used. Further, the infra-red radiator and recording material may be either arranged such that they are movable with respect to each other. or they may be stationary. In any case, a deformation image is developed or erased on the recording material opposite slot 7 only.
Preferably, an infra-red radiator is employed the radiation area of which is geometrically adapted to the area on the recording material which is to be developed or erased. Such adaptation may be achieved by a suitably coiled heating wire or by interpolating appropriate screens. Closely coiled infra-red radiators 9 (see FIG. 4) with an elliptical reflector 10 are particularly suitable, because in this case the emitted radiation may be focused in a particularly favorable manner.
It is also possible for the template 6 to be movable in the direction of the arrows (FIG. 3). The template may not only be of the slotted shape shown in FIG. 3, but the most varied geometrical shapes and sizes are possible. The preferred basic shapes, from which more complicated patterns may be formed, are templates having circular or slot-like openings, corresponding to the shapes indicated in FIGS. and 2d for the high voltage templates or counter-electrode templates.
It has been found that the area which is developed or erased, does not correspond to the area determined by the slot or the opening in the template. In most cases, a smaller area is developed or erased, and the size is also dependent upon the thickness of the recording material used.
For instance, in the case of a slot of a width of 0.5 mm, the area which is developed or erased is not 0.5 mm wide, but about 0.3 mm, when a recording material of a thickness of 40 am is used. When the recording material is 120 ,um thick, an area of about 0.45 mm is developed or erased.
In a further embodiment of the process according to the invention, the described templates used for the pointed deformation by dry thermal treatment of a recording material may be replaced by heated stamps having the shape of the described high voltage electrodes or counter-electrodes, the stamps being pressed from the back upon the support of the recording material. In this manner, it even may be possible to eliminate the infra-red radiation. In this case, deformation takes place only in those areas where the heated stamp is in contact with the recording material.
Point-shaped, circular, wedge-shaped and square stamps have proved to be particularly suitable. Stamps in the form of a planar surface have proved to be particularly advantageous.
When it is desired to produce special deformation images on thermoplastic photoconductive surfaces on which deformation images are already present which must be impaired, charging and developing may be combined, by charging only small areas and developing only the charged areas by heating, after image-wise exposure. For this purpose, the recording material may be first suitably charged anditheri conveyed, after imagewise exposure, to a corresponding developing station. Care must be taken that the charging area and the developing area correspond exactly. This difficulty may be avoided when the'position of the recording material relative to the templates is not changed during charging and development. In FIG. 5, the fundamental process to be used for recording materials containing no conductive intermediate layers is shown. The counterelectrode 4 in the form of a'wedge-shaped cutting edge is moved in the opening of the developing, template 6, which is provided with a slot. During charging, the counter-electrode is advanced until it touches the back of the recording material and may be moved along the recording material I in the direction of the arrows.
At this stage, the template 6 which will; be later used for development, is retracted. During thermal development after image-wise exposure, the counter-electrode 4 is retracted, and template 6 is advanced and touches the back of the recording material I, as shown in FIG. 6.
For the combined charging and development of recording materials having an electrically conductive intermediate layer, the recording material may be in contact from the back with a template of suitable shape, and a correspondingly shaped high voltage electrode template is then arranged exactly opposite it. After charging, the high voltage electrode is removed from the recording material.
For performing the process of the invention, an apparatus is required by which the'individual areas of the layer which are to be deformed can be exactly located. The apparatus contains the structural elements 'normally required for the relief process, viz. mounting for the recording material, charging station, exposure station, and a station for dry thermal treatment. The re-- cording material executes a relative movement with respect to the individual stations, i.e. it may travel along a closed, e.g. circular path, or on an elongated path.
Thus, the present invention is also concerned with an apparatus for performing the process for deforming a thermoplastic, preferably photoconductive layer. For electrostatic charging and/or heating, high-voltage electrode templates and counter-electrode templates, and/or deformation templates (see numeral 4 and FIGS. 2a, 2b, 2c, and 2d) of materials of good electroconductivity or heat-conductivity are provided. Coneshaped or wedge-shaped high-voltage electrode templates or counter-electrode templates (numeral 4 and FIG. 2b) and/or deformation templates provided with a hole or a slot (see FIGS. 2c and 2d) are preferred.
Heating is effected by supplying thermal energy, preferably only to the areas to be defomed. Infra-red radiators, e.g. halogen-tungsten lamps, whose effectiveness can be increased by focusing the rays, have proved to be of advantage. A closely coiled infra-red radiator 9 in combination with an elliptic reflector 10 (see FIG. 4) has proved to be particularly favorable. In addition, it is possible to remove the actinic components of the light by interposing a colored glass filter 11.
The devices for electrostatic charging and dry thermal treatment are arranged such that they are movable in relation to the deformable portion of the thermoplastic layer. The desired positions can be reproduceably adjusted by means of measuring instruments, such as micrometer screws.
Two contact bars 12 and-13, which are at right angles to each other and whosecontact separations l4 correspond to the screen width of the image field, are advantageously used for adjustment, as shown in FlG.7, so that the transistion from one image field 16 to the next may correspond, e.g., to one image unit. By merans of the contact bars, an electrical control is possible, so that the desired adjustment can be made automatically.
ln P10. 8, the apparatus according to the invention is illustrated by reference to a closed, circular movement of the recording material. The apparatus contains a turntable 17 provided with the mounting 18 for the recording material 1, an optical system 19 for reproduction, andoriginal 20, a lamp 21 with a condensor 22, and the heating station 23.
The recording material 1 is fastened to the mounting byjmeans of a metallic suction plate 24. The mounting 18, which may be, e.g., of cast aluminum, may be connected to a thermostat (not shown). For deformation of the recording material, the mounting 18 with the suction plate 24 has in its center, preferably only in one spot, a bore 25 with a fixed diameter of, e.g., 7 mm, into which the differently shaped templates for electrostatic charging and/or heating are fitted.
For deforming different areas of the recording material which can also be achieved by a relative movement between the recording material and the templates, as described above a mounting is advantageously used which is provided with a rectangular opening of larger size, e.g. of about X 15 mm. For electrostatic charging of a surface, a metal plug may be inserted into this opening, which completely fills it. When onlya portion of the area is to be charged, the metal plug is replaced by a plug of dielectric material, e.g. plexiglass, provided with a screen-like arrangement of bores of approximately 2 mm diameter, into which a counter-electrode may be inserted for selective charging.
For selective heating, a metal plug is inserted which opposite to thearea to be deformed on the recording material, is provided with a bore of corresponding diameter (2 mm) into which the specially shaped template is inserted. Where the metal plug is in contact with the recording material, the thermal energy supplied is carried off so quickly that the recording material is not deformed in this area.
By turning the turntable, the mounting 18 carrying the recording material 11 is conveyed to the different stations required for image formation. The turntable 17 is turned by a synchronous motor with a variable gear. The peripheral speed may be adjusted as desired. A speed of 2 cm per second, which may be increased or reduced by several steps, has proved to be advantageous.
In position 26, opposite to the corona device 27, the material is charged, and at 28 it is image-wise exposed. In order to avoid blurring during exposure, the drive of the turntable may be interrupted by an adjustable contact switch and the turntable stopped by an electromagnet. After a predetermined dwell at station 28, the electro-magnet releases the turntable and the mounting with the recording material thereon is conveyed to the thermal developing station 23 (position 29 of the turntable).
The invention will be further illustrated by the following examples:
EXAMPLE 1 20 g of polystyrene having an average molecular weight of about 30,000, 10 g of low molecular weight poly-a-methylstyrene, and 3 g of 2,5-bis-(p-diethylaminophenyl)-l,3,4-oxadiazole are dissolved in ml of chloroform. The resulting solution is cast upon a 50 p. thick polyethylene terephthalate film placed on a whirler. After l0 seconds, the coated film, which is still wet, is taken from the whirler and stored for l5 minutes at room temperature unti it is dry to the touch. Finally, it is heated for 20 minutes at a temperature of 50C in a circulating air drier to remove the solvent. 7
A sample of the coated film is pressed upon a metallic suction plate which is provided with a bore of 7 mm diameter in its center. lnto this bore, metal templates of different shapes may be inserted which contact the back of the coated film only during charging. The coated film is charged by passing it at a distance of 1.5 cm and a speed of 2 cm per second past a needle corona to which a potential of 8 kV has been applied.
Subsequently, the material is exposed to the light of a 200 watt projector lamp, using an optical system of f= 35 mm. A transparent original showing 8 printed lines of 2 mm height each is reproduced at a scale of reduction of l5:1.
The image is adjusted such that it is projected centrally upon the bore in the suction plate. Exposure time is 10 seconds. For development, the coated film on the suction plate is positioned at a distance of 0.5 cm from a 2 cm wide, 8 cm long, and 0.01 cm thick steel sheet to which a voltage of 2.8 volts is applied for 1.5 seconds. The heating power is about 0.5 kW.
Depending on the shape of the metal template inserted into the bore during charging, some parts of the coated film are not charged, so that relief images are produced in which some lines are missing. The results are compiled in the following Table 1:
TABLE 1 Shape of the Template (in contact during charging only) level circular area of a diameter of 7 mm level circular area with a slot of 1 mm width level circular area with a bridge of 2 mm height and 1 mm width EXAMPLE 2 l g of copper phthalocyanine, 5 g of low molecular weight polymethyl styrene, and 10 g of polystyrene having an average molecular weight of about 30,000 aredissolved in 50 ml of chloroform which contains 1 drop of silicone oil per liter of chloroform. A 50 p. thick polyester film carrying a 22 t thick top layer of polyvinylidene chloride is coated with this solution as described in Example 1 and then dried. Charging, exposure, and development are as described in Example 1, with the exception that the metal template with the level circular area closes the bore during charging; the exposure time is l/200 seconds; and metal templates of different shapes are in contact with the back of the coated material during development. Depending on the shape of the metal templates used. a corresponding area of the coated material remains undeveloped during thermal development. The results are compiled in the following Table 2:
Table 2 Shape of the Template (in contact during development only) level circular area of a diameter of 7 mm Numbers of the Reproduced Lines (the lines are consecutively numbered from 1 to 8) (none of the lines of the charge image are developed into a relief image) level circular area with a slit ofl mm width 5.
level circular area with a machined bridge of l 2 mm height and 1 mm width The same results are obtained when an electrically non-conductive layer of indium, which increases reflection, is applied to the thermoplastic photoconductor layer at a reduced pressure of at least Torr. before the image is produced.
EXAMPLE 3 EXAMPLE 4 A polyester film is provided with a photoconductive The original used for exposure is a transparent film showing a line pattern which is reproduced at a reduction scale of 15:1. Thermal development is effected as described in Example 2. after the metal pin has been retracted through the metal template and the metal template with the 0.5 mm diameter bore has been advanced until it touches the back of the film. The scaleddown image of the line pattern is visible on the film in a circular relief image of 0.28 mm diameter. When a polyester film of 100 p. thickness is used for coating. the relief image produced has a diameter of 0.48 mm.
EXAMPLE 6 l g of poly-N-vinyl carbazole, l g of trinitrofluorenone, 10 g of chlorinated diphenyl, and 10 g of low molecular weight poly-a-methylstyrene are dissolved in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran. Coating and drying are as described in Example 1, using a polyester film as the support. During the charging process, the metal template with the level circular surface is inserted into the suction plate. During thermal development, the metal template with the slot is inserted into the suction plate until it touches the film. During exposure, the original is masked in such a manner that only one line is reproduced on the film.
Each time after the formation of one image, the original is displaced by one line, and the film lying on the suction plate is shifted by the same distance. Thus, the individual lines of the original are reproduced one after the other on the film carrying the thermoplastic photoconductor layer. The results are shown in Table 4 below.

thickness was applied as described in Example 2 is charged as described in Example 1. During charging, the film rests on a suction plate provided with an opening through which a brass bar of 7 mm diameter is partially inserted. The brass bar has a central bore of 0.5 mm diameter. through which a metal pin with a coneshaped point is pushed until it touches the back of the film.
A polyester film is coated as described in Example 6 and then dried, and a relief image is produced thereon by the method stated in Example l. The film carrying the relief image is placed upon the suction mounting in such a manner that the relief image is in the center of the bore. Then a metal template is inserted into the bore, which has a level circular surface with a 0.5 mm wide slot. The layer side of the material is irradiated with infra-red radiation as described in Example 1. The
relief image is levelled out in the areas not in contact with the template, viz. opposite the slot, whereas it is retained in all other areas EXAMPLE 8 A polyester film is coated and dried as described in Example 2. For charging, exposure, and development, the method of Example 1 is repeated, with a metal template being in full contact with the back of the material during charging. A complete relief image is therefore obtained which shows 8 lines, according to the original used. In order to exchange an item of the invention recorded, e.g. a certain number in the present case, a metal template with a 0.5 mm bore is inserted into the suction mounting and the recording material showing the relief image is'positioned in such a manner that the numberto be replaced is opposite the bore. Adjustment is facilitated by using either a mounting which is movable in-a vertical plane to the bore, or a movable metal template having a bore.
When the material is irradiated with infra-red radiation as described in Example 1, only the relief image opposite the bore is levelled. After the erasing process, the recording material is charged again, with a plug being inserted into the bore in the metal template. After the new number has been beamed upon the material, the plug in'the bore of the metal template is retracted and the material is again irradiated with infrared light. In the area of the erasure, a new relief image is formed which'shows the desired number. All other areas of the image remain unchanged.
When the new number is reproduced by this method without prior erasure of the original number, a relief image of the new number on top of a weak relief image of the original number is obtained.
EXAMPLE 9 A thermoplastic layer containing no photoconductor is produced on a polyester film according to the method stated in Example 1. This layer is uniformly charged as described in Example 1 and then touched for seconds with a metal template comprising a glass plate as the support and a thin metal layer thereon showing a line pattern. The charge image produced on the thermoplastic layer is developed into a relief image by irradiation with infra-red rays.
The film carrying the relief image is placed upon a suction mounting provided with a bore in such a manner that the relief image faces outwardly and is opposite the center of the bore. A metal pin of 1 mm diameter is inserted into the bore until it touches the back of the film. The other end of the metal pin is insulated and a resistance wire is coiled around it to which such a voltage is applied, via an adjustable transformer, that the metal pin is heated to a temperature of about 75C. After about 5 minutes, the relief image has become noticeably flatter in the vicinity of the heated metal pin. When using infra-red radiation, as is normal for development, the relief image opposite the heated metal pin may be levelled within fractions of a seco.nd, without visibly damaging the relief images in the-other areas of the material. 1
EXAMPLE 10 A polyester film is coated as described in Example 2, dried, and then charged in a predetermined area by means of an electrode having a cross-section of 1.5 to 2 mm, similarly as in Example 1. Exposure is performed with the aid of laser light which is separated into two component rays by means of a beam splitter, to'pro duce a hologram.
One of the component rays is directly beamed upon the charged recording material, and the other component ray passes a diffusing lens and the original and strikes the recording material in such a manner that the two component rays are superimposed. The recording material is behind a shutter with an opening of 1.2 X 2 mm. After an exposure time of I second (He/Ne-Laser of 2 mW, T mode, diverging light) and thermal development, a relief image is obtained on which the object is visible under illumination with the direct component ray. With a hologram of a size of 1.2 X 2 mm, the noise does not prevent the reproduction of the image. Further holograms are produced by the same method, except that other areas of the recording material are charged, exposed, and developed.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that many modifications may be made within the scope of the present invention without departing from the spirit thereof, and the invention includes allsuch modifications.
What is claimed is:
1. In the process for deforming only a selected area of an image on a thermoplastic layer applied to a supporting film by heating said thermoplastic,
the improvement which comprises non-selectively heating the thermoplastic layer from the front by dry thermal treatment and simultaneously contacting the supporting film in the back of the nonselected area with a material having an even surface and good heat conductivity.

You need to disable the same policies under the Domain Profile as well as Standard Profile. The run a gpupdate and all should be good
I try in vain to use group policy to turn the damned thing off
I do computer->admin templates->network->net connections->windows firewall->std profile->protect all network connections-> disabled
My rsop.msc on client shows firewall disabled. Services.msc shows ...firewall running!!
Tried turning off service from group policy.
windows settings->security->system services->windows firewall
It then shows up in rsop.msc as another service: mpsSvc disabled firewall off
When I open services.msc.... firewall is running.... bloody great.
Why is this not happening?! anyone know
You need to disable the same policies under the Domain Profile as well as Standard Profile. The run a gpupdate and all should be good
Thanks for response.
Still seems to have firewall service running, even though both these items are applied according to the clients rsop.msc
If you run gpupdate /force that should do the trick. You can also change/update how often your workstations receive new GPO settings. I believe the default is every 90 minutes. You can change this navigating to:
Computer Config > Admin Templates > System > Group Policy - Group Policy refresh interval for computers
The rsop.msc shows its applied, but still service runs... aghh
I tried the forcing of the policy also. Same deal.
But the fact rsop.msc shows its applied without errors, and still the service runs, is enough to make me cry.
The service will always run even if you have disabled all firewall functionality, the service is linked to some other windows services and therefore cant be stopped (from what i know) just the traffic control part will not do anything if you disable it!
The service will still be running even if the firewall is turned off. Have you checked Control Panel > Firewall?
The service is shared with ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) on Windows XP. I tend to disable that service on all of my images even though we have a GPO that prevents the firewall from running.
If you open the Windows Firewall control panel on an admin acccount it will be or should be all greyed out.
