I've looked through this forum and even googled it, but nobody ever mentions how to lower your leaver penalty and how many games you have to leave before to gain leaver levels. So, how can you lower your leaver penalty and how many games can you leave before you go to leaver level 1, level 2, and so forth?
Wrenchman Golin

You need to continue playing games without leaving to lower your leaver level--your leaver level is determined by your left Normal/Ranked matches against your total Normal/Ranked matches.
ok, so what is the ratio? can you just give me a ballpark range if you dont have the exact ratio
I would suggest against testing the limit. The leaver system is to prevent leavers, and by trying to skirt around the issue, I think many players and Riot would much prefer you not playing.
Your leaver level increases when you bypass a certain % of your total played games, OR if you leave consecutively. Even if you have 1000 games played with no leaves, if you suddenly decide to leave 10 games in a row, you are going to get hit regardless.
I'm not trying to test the limit, I'm just going to make sure that i can increase my games played to the point where my leaver level will drop. I just want to know because now i have to be more careful when i play lol, cuz my mom always shuts off my comp when she finds me playing and she wont let me reconnect.
so could you just give me a ball park range? like leaving under 5% of total games will remove my leaver penalty?
I'd keep the Leaved Games down to around 1-2% to be honest. If you're playing late and know your mom may pull you off the computer at any moment, I'd choose to play a Custom Game (if at all).
and also, will i get a notification if my leaver level goes down?

I haven't heard anyone mention it, but I don't believe any of the more helpful people on the forum (R66Y, Still, etc) have gotten a rank 1 warning yet, so /shrug.
(It's easier to get a leaver level at lower summoner levels, I'm just saying those who frequent the forum more often haven't.)

But Chatman, as he has several times in recent weeks, explains that if anyone's responsible for the deterioration of their relationship, it's him. His niece and other women in his family sent him letters, but he withdrew from them and stopped responding.
"I always had this nagging thought—do they believe me?" he says. "Every time I saw them or talked to them, I'd try to read what they said, what was in their eyes. It's a real battle. Did they believe me? I don't know."
What he does know is that he is loved, which may help him through the difficult times that lie ahead. He says he wants to take auto mechanic classes and help the Innocence Project vet the claims of other convicts. Who better than him to detect when someone is lying or shading the truth?
He says he still has hard days, days when he thinks about all he has gone through and tries to make sense out of why it happened. But then he looks at his new apartment and his new furniture, and he steps outdoors, because he can. "I tell my family that I don't want to dwell on the past because they have been through a lot too—and God blessed us. So why should we rain on our own parade?"

Information from Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - The Texas A&M System Board of Regents has approved a guaranteed tuition and fee plan for all Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi undergraduate students starting next fall.
"We've worked hard over the past few months to develop a plan that makes the costs associated with obtaining a degree clearer," said Dr. Flavius Killebrew, President/CEO of A&M-Corpus Christi. "This plan ensures that our students and their parents can project their costs more accurately over four years. It's also a great incentive for our students to finish their degrees on time."
A&M-Corpus Christi undergraduate students will pay the same tuition and fees for up to four years. Currently enrolled students will have a plan guaranteed for one, two or three years based on their classification as sophomores, junior or seniors.
The plan comes in response to a state law enacted by the 83rd Texas Legislature in 2013 requiring institutions to offer a guaranteed tuition and fee plan and a requirement from the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents that the plans be mandatory for undergraduate students.
"This shows the commitment of the Board of Regents to keeping a university education affordable," said Killebrew. "It demonstrates their leadership and concern for students."

I am very new to plotting data and I am trying to add a third factor to my bwplot.
My factors are:
- Site with 6 levels (C0, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5)
- Seasonal Flow with 2 levels (High, Low)
- Land Use with 2 levels (Urban, Rural)
I have no trouble plotting the Site and Seasonal Flow with the script below:
C <- read.csv('Collie 3.csv')
bwplot(TN.TP~ Site| Seasonal.Flow,data=C,main="Collie River TN:TP",ylab="ratio",xlab="Site + Flow regime", horizontal=FALSE)
Datalink: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6q8b1svld61pqsr/Collie%203.csv
My problem is that I would like to also include Land Use on the x-axis, where Sites C0 and C1 are Rural and Sites C2, C3, C4, C5 are Urban. I have looked at ggplot, but still haven't figured it out. Even just colouring C0 and C1 differently would help.

Mole bombs
Type "ff ff ff ff" at the weapons screen.
Level Passwords
Access the following levels by entering the corresponding challenge mode passwords:
Alternate weapons
Type "bobjob" at the weapons screen to turn cluster bombs to banana bombs and mines into exploding sheep. To return to normal, type bojbob at the weapons screen.
Top secret gun
Select the Uzi or Minigun. Aim at where you want to fire, then press SPACE + F1. Note: Press SPACE a fraction of a second sooner than F1. The weapon will switch to a Bazooka, but it will act as an Uzi or Minigun when fired. This results in about twenty bazooka shots being fired at the target, causing absolute and total destruction of perhaps a tenth of the entire gaming area. It will also probably kill any worm it hits. This gun does not have a name, but it works. Your Uzi or Minigun needs ammunition for this trick to work, but it is not necessary for the bazooka to have any. This is particularly useful during the Star Trek mission.

Keith is a native of Pennsylvania, where he enlisted in the USAF after high school. He spent 22 years in the Air Force, with his final assignment in NATO headquarters in Belgium. Of his 22 years, 12 of them were spent in Europe, where he met his wife Martina.
While in the Air Force Keith came to know the Lord and immediately recognized a call on his life to serve the Lord as a preacher and teacher of God's word. He spent the next 20 years exercising his gifts by providing pulpit supply to churches in the US and Europe. He taught many sunday school classes, taught a bible class in the county jail for four years, and held an interim pastorate for 9 months.
Being called as pastor of Elim Baptist Church is the realization of God's calling that began over 20 years ago.
Keith and Martina homeschool their five children.

Because this is a reminder that if you only know Ryan Bingham from his Oscar-winning "The Weary Kind," you don't really know Ryan Bingham at all. His early albums sounded like a Road House-inspired version of The Black Crowes, and now he's veering toward something even more seething and guitar-driven.

Antibiotic Resistance 2013: The Antibiotics Development Pipeline And Strategies To Combat Antibiotic Resistance
NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Antibiotic Resistance 2013: The Antibiotics Development Pipeline and Strategies to Combat Antibiotic Resistance
This report gives a comprehensive overview of global antibiotic resistance, the antibiotics pipeline and new strategies to target resistance mechanisms. It identifies 109 antibiotics in the development pipeline, approximately 70% of which are in early development (Preclinical and Phase 1). In contrast, there are just 9 candidates at Phase 3, while there are 31 at Phase 2. These developments are being progressed by 66 companies, of which nine (14%) are major international corporations and 57 (86%) are Small/Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs).While antibiotics are effective for the majority of infections, increasing resistance in some pathogens threatens to undermine the few remaining drugs that are still effective against them. This is evident in the case of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Since 2005, there has been a significant decrease of susceptibility to carbapenems in invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae, causing concerns due to the lack of therapeutic options for treating these infections.Antibiotic resistance is a long-evolved trait in prokaryotes. The extensive capabilities of the resistome, together with the ability of bacteria to establish new mutant variants in response to man-made antibiotics, suggest that antibiotic resistance will remain an ever-present threat. It is therefore not so much a question of whether a pathogen will become resistant to an antibiotic, but when. However, the development of new drugs and targeting mechanisms provide an opportunity to "reset the clock" on resistance levels in particular pathogens.In the last decade, the capacity to target pathogens has also been undermined by a lack of innovation, which has seen a 60% fall in the numbers of new approvals and few novel molecules. However, as this report has shown, this trend is changing. Today, there are more than 100 candidate antibiotics in development, of which half are in the clinical pipeline. While there are several promising candidates at Phase 3 which offer hope of new approvals in the coming years, Phase 2 developments are now substantial, suggesting the emergence of a new era in the types of antibiotics and the strategies that will be available to target pathogens in the future.

Hold yourself to Hi Standards.
Erik Leines collaborated with Vans to develop the Men's Hi Standard Snowboard Boot, a boot that matches Erik's all-mountain-attack style of riding. This medium-soft boot has enough versatility to spend the morning dropping cliffs at the Bird and the afternoon riding rails in the park. Vans' technically advanced Pro-Flex Snowaffle Air Outsole maximizes traction and turning response without inhibiting flex and feel at the toe. Molded PU midsoles provide the highest level of impact absorption and durability, while a ¾-wrap heelclip stabilizes the foot for increased torsional rigidity. This boot's internal web harness adds an additional level of support and energy transmission. Say good-bye to heel twist and boot slop, say hello to on-demand response. The Trifit center-tongue liners and Checker B EVA footbeds provide antimicrobial protection, integrated arch support, metatarsal impact-relief pads, and high-rebound EVA padding. All that and an affordable price; it's hard to go wrong.

Captain Morgan's Ship Found: Famed Pirate's Vessel Found Near Panama (VIDEO)
A 17th century shipwreck found off the coast of Panama is believed to have belonged to famed pirate Henry Morgan.
Morgan is perhaps better known these days as the face of a brand of rum, but in his day he was one of the most feared privateers in the world.
The wreck comes from Morgan's invasion and sacking of Panama in 1671.

Four months into his new job as UK managing director of Jaguar Land Rover, Jeremy Hicks - the former head of Audi in the UK - must be experiencing feelings of deja vu.
He has a premium brand which he wants to see grow, with sporty R performance models and a range of SUVs. This is Audi all over again.
The task of engineering that growth was made a little easier at the Geneva Motor Show with the introduction of the XF Sportbrake, a rival for the likes of the BMW 5 Series touring and Audi A6 Avant, and the Range Rover Evoque Convertible concept.
The Sportbrake will go into production later this year but an addition to the highly successful Evoque range is dependent on reaction, although the Convertible concept must rekindle memories of Hicks's time at Audi - the Q5 was initially shown as a drop-top design study before becoming an estate for production.
"The Sportbrake opens up 20% more of the market in its segment for us," said Hicks.
"The Evoque Convertible is at this stage purely to gauge reaction, but the UK has a very strong convertible market, so it does open up possibilities for us."
More progress will be possible when, rather than if, JLR opts to go into the compact premium segment, however.
"If we are going to grow we can't rely on the existing segments," he said. 'That size of car (Audi A4, BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class) gives is a great opportunity, and we are actively looking at it. It can open big doors for us.
"If you look at the four-cylinder diesel engines we have in the XF, they have doubled our market opportunities and made us much stronger in the corporate sales segment," Hicks went on.
"Now we know we need to be much more active in contract hire and leasing."

Jaguar has probably held a privileged position among premium brands in the UK in that because it is British, customers may be more prepared to overlook little problems with the cars.The cars themselves certainly come with a 'feel-good factor', well equipped for the money and with stylish exteriors and interiors.Updates to the XJ and XF range have kept sales treading water while the new car market has improved, while the introduction of the F-Type Roadster in 2013 and the F-Type Coupé this year have certainly grabbed worldwide attention.Next on the horizon is a BMW 3 Series rival called the XE, which will be crucial to increase Jaguar's presence in the business car sector, and it will be offered with a new 2.0-litre diesel engine developed in house.Hi-tech lightweight aluminium construction will put it at the top of the class for low CO2 emissions, and rear-wheel drive will also keep driving enthusiasts happy.

Several years ago, 4x4s were treated as a menace by some in the national media. Then the recession took hold, which could have spelled disaster for a four-wheel drive specialist, such as Land Rover.But its foray into front-wheel drive SUVs, first with the Freelander, then with the ultra-successful Range Rover Evoque seem to have attracted new customers to the brand. Dealers, it seems, love it, with very high ratings in the NFDA Dealer Attitude Survey.In the past 18 months, the two larger Range Rover models have been renewed with new, lighter aluminium vehicles, while Land Rover is seeking to capitalise on the Range Rover's appeal as a bona fide luxury saloon alternative with a long-wheelbase version.With registrations approaching 55,000 in 2013, and this year's total looking likely to reach 60,000, all eyes will be on 2015 as the Discovery family is set to grow, adding a smaller model to replace the Freelander, while we should get our first glimpse of the long-awaited Defender replacement.

It is no surprise or co-incidence then that Landrover are now beginning to starve the UK market of cars - Mr.Hicks clearly learnt his lessons well while at Audi in this regard.
What else can explain why the UK LR dealer network have seen their allocations slashed. Orders placed in good faith and already in the pipeline have been put back by over two months. So a vehicle ordered in August 2012, expected for delivery in November 2012, will now not be made available until February 2013.
And that Mr.Joe Public (UK) is how this manufacturer treats you ... with disdain and contempt.

Putting Terrorists Out of Business: Using Sarbanes-Oxley to Prosecute Terror Financiers
Adam Ross Pearlman
affiliation not provided to SSRN
March 31, 2010
Engage: The Journal of the Federalist Society's Practice Groups, Vol. 11, No. 1, pp. 91-96, March, 2010
This article examines the practicality and the utility of prosecuting terrorist financiers for anticipatory obstruction of justice under section 802 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, codified at 18 U.S.C. s. 1519. Section 1519 was written to be a broadly applicable law, designed to go after the "individual shredder" or destructor of evidence in a way that other obstruction statutes (e.g. ss. 1503 and 1512) could not. It has been applied to a variety of defendants, ranging from those charged with possession of child pornography, to those being investigated for health care fraud. The article examines the legislative history and the Supreme Court's ruling in Arthur Anderson (reversing convictions on obstruction charges), and applies that background to the possibility of using this law against those who finance terrorists.

HoopsHype Jeanie Buss rumors
Buss said she isn't worried about Bryant's contract getting in the way of the Lakers' plans. "Too much attention is being paid to salary cap and all that kind of stuff, which is important," said Buss. "Why can't we just talk about the players ... and how a basketball team comes together and not focus on slotting and cap space?" Buss said she isn't worried about Bryant's contract getting in the way of the Lakers' plans. "Too much attention is being paid to salary cap and all that kind of stuff, which is important," said Buss. "Why can't we just talk about the players ... and how a basketball team comes together and not focus on slotting and cap space?" Los Angeles Times
Dave McMenamin: Jeanie Buss teared up on @TWCSportsNet lamenting that the team didn't get to give Magic Johnson a farewell tour. They will do so w/ Kobe Twitter
With Jackson coaching and Jeanie Buss working in the front office, there definitely could have been conflicts of interest. There surely were conflicts of interest. But those two and the organization managed them. Now that Jackson has become the Knicks' president, the potential conflicts of interest full under a different jurisdiction – the NBA. NBCSports.com
Ramona Shelburne: Jeanie Buss says there has been a discussion w/ the league on potential conflict of interest. Had dinner w/ Silver last night. Twitter
Gasol also supported Kobe Bryant for publicly questioning the front office. Those included issues ranging from wanting executives Jim and Jeanie Buss to improve their relationship, decide Mike D'Antoni's future as head coach and build a championship caliber roster this offseason. "I'm glad that he spoke his mind," Gasol said following the Lakers' 131-102 loss Thursday to the Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Arena. "He wants to win. He's got two years under contract with the franchise. He wants to be in the best possible position to win. Whether you do that publicly or internally, that's totally up to you. He spoke his mind and you have to respect him for that." Los Angeles Daily News
Make no mistake, they have regular meetings gathering all six Buss children for the family trust in charge of the Lakers, but Jeanie and Jim aren't much closer than when they weren't speaking before their father's death. Even though they're trying to work through it, the end game remains more likely to be one in and one out. Bleacher Report
Mike Bresnahan: Kobe wants Jim and Jeanie Buss to figure out their strained relationship. He's not happy to continually be left out of Lakers' future plans. Twitter @Mike_Bresnahan
Magic Johnson took to Twitter to make a case for the Lakers to hire Phil Jackson and not allow him to join the Knicks. Using his Twitter handle @MagicJohnson, the Hall of Famer wrote: " I love Jim & Jeanie Buss, but we need Phil Jackson to be the face of our great organization, the Los Angeles Lakers." New York Daily News
A source said Jackson has reservations about such a move because he loves living in Manhattan Beach, Calif., with his fiancée, Lakers executive Jeanie Buss. New York Post
Q: Is there any scenario where you get back in that mix? I've heard some chatter that you could become even more involved there, and there's this idea that time heals all wounds and even though the way the coaching situation went down was botched that you could play a role, whether with (general manager) Mitch (Kupchak) in the front office or something else. Is that plausible at all? Phil Jackson: I don't think so. I have a good relationship with the vice president in business affairs (Jeanie Buss) — at least it has been pretty good (laughs). She's dedicated to their family running the business and trying to feel what that's like. Their father's memorial service is not a year old, but he has been gone for a year now and they're still just kind of figuring out, 'How are we going to do this?' So I think they want to have an opportunity to do it. And Mitch, obviously, has a relationship with (Lakers executive vice president of player personnel and Jeanie's brother) Jimmy that has been going on since, I think, 2004 or so, when he started becoming really involved. So for the last 10 years, he and Mitch have been pretty much working together. (Late Lakers owner) Dr. (Jerry) Buss came in on things. We had a few issues. Kobe (Bryant) had an issue one year. We had an issue getting Pau (Gasol). Some of the major moves, Dr. Buss was still there. But the other stuff Jimmy and Mitch have been working on. They've got a relationship, so I don't see that happening. USA Today Sports
Who was your favorite person to talk to in putting together this book, and why? As strange as this might sound, I'd have to say I have three—Linda Rambis, Jeanie Buss and Wanda Cooper. Explanation: Linda is Kurt's wife, and she's worked for the Lakers for years. She's cool and laid-back and happy to chat about anything, everything—sans embarrassment, sans remorse, sans hesitation. I just felt a genuine kinship with her. Jeanie, obviously, is one of the team's owners, and when we were scheduled to lunch I had no idea what to expect. Well, she walks in … and she's just chill. And self-deprecating. And smart. Like Linda, she didn't shy away from things, or try and gloss over stuff. There was no PR person present. No shield. If every team executive were like those two, life would be easy. The Big Lead
Steve Kyler: Laker president Jeanie Buss says the pending merger of Comcast/Time Warner is a concern, because they may have to work with new people Twitter @stevekylerNBA
Steve Kyler: Buss recalled how much time and how much effort was put into crafting a deal with Time Warner and that the spirit of the deal could change Twitter @stevekylerNBA
Stern admitted Thursday that even holding regular-season games at other European arenas is a challenge at this time, given the limitations of the potential venues, and especially the fact there is an NBA-ready arena already in London. "The O2 is a spectacular building. The last time we played in Italy it was in the [Mediolanum Forum outside Milan], and I think the Forum might almost be as old as I am, and it looks it," the outgoing commissioner said. "Our sponsors, our licensees, our international broadcasters, they enjoy coming to the center point here in London, and this has been very good. But I think we're going back to those places. We will be in Spain, we will be in Italy, we will be in Greece. I just don't know when Commissioner Silver is going to decide to do that." New York Post
Los Angeles Lakers president Jeanie Buss said she has made an effort to get to know Mike D'Antoni and his wife, Laurel, this offseason and is "encouraged" about the coach's plans for the team this season. "I've gotten a chance to know coach D'Antoni and I've learned three things about him," Buss said Thursday on the "Mason & Ireland Show" on ESPNLA 710 radio. "The first and most important is the guy wants to win. I love that about him. "The second thing is we have the same taste in restaurants and food. We live in the same area and we have all the same favorite restaurants. "I've also met his wife. And I have this saying, and maybe I'm patting myself on the back with this one, but behind every great coach is a great woman. And she is a great woman. She's a dynamo." ESPN.com
The February passing of Lakers owner Jerry Buss – Jeanie's and Jim's father – also might have contributed to D'Antoni and Jeanie not speaking much until recently. "I don't think anything was personal, but it was tough for everybody," D'Antoni said. "There was a grieving process they had to go through. Our chemistry wasn't good on the team. There was a lot of stuff. "But I never felt anything but good support from the family from the basketball side. Mitch, Jim, they've been great. That definitely is a strength of us." Yahoo! Sports
The three decided it would be good for Jeanie Buss and Mike D'Antoni to finally talk. Mike D'Antoni confirmed he had a great meeting with Jeanie Buss within the past 10 days. They also spoke during a Lakers' coaching staff party hosted by Mike's brother Dan D'Antoni, a Lakers assistant. "Now everybody is on the same team and we're pulling in the same direction trying to get this done," Mike D'Antoni said. "It was inevitable. It had to happen the other way, but this is a good spot we are in, no doubt." Yahoo! Sports

text: The Minnesota House on Monday voted to create a "Health Insurance Exchange" for the state. It's part of the federal health care reform law that calls for the creation of state-level health exchanges for individuals and small businesses to buy coverage beginning in October. The bill passed the House 72-58. Minnesota families are projected to save more than $1-billion by using the exchange to purchase insurance – with the average family reportedly saving $500 and a lower-income family saving approximately $1,800. Nearly 200,000 small businesses employees are also expected to access coverage through the exchange. The Senate will vote on their version of the Health Insurance Exchange bill later this week.

Service was fast and efficient
I had a lot of electronic issues. lights didn't work, heater and safe deposit box didn't work. I had to have the maintenance person there 3 times. (they came quickly and resolved the issues). I couldnt call down to the front desk but I had to go down and ask which was annoying. You need a direct line to the front to ask questions.
Service friendly professional
Smelly corridors. Restaurant breakfast not so good quality, inadequate description of what you get, but service friendly by many young people
The doormen were very helpful in directing us to where we can park.
No parking was provided by the hotel. The front desk could only say that because it is a historic hotel, there is no available parking. ?????
Staff was awesome and very helpful.
No parking
Very good personal attention. The manager sent us a bottle of wine when he learned it was our birthday which was a nice touch.
Great location
Excellent Location, just a few steps away from the BART station entrance. Spacious rooms. Fast wireless Internet.
Somewhat expensive. Expensive breakfast.
I really appreciated the delightful customer service from everyone at the front desk, the bartender, room service...everyone accommodated my needs!!!
costumer service
too noisy, no refry in the room, rooms are too small.
I thought breakfasts were disappointing. Bacon over cooked. No choice of sour dough bread. Coffee not remarkable. No newspapers.
Lovely accommodations, very nice room, bed, etc. Located steps from Berkeley BART, which makes it convenient to go to SF for business (which I did).
In the heart of Berkeley downtown and close to BART station and the Campus. The rooms are clean and tidy.
beautiful hotel
the street noise made it very uncomfortable with no sleep
Traffic getting to hotel/no street parking
The best thing about the Hotel Shattuck is its location, right by the Bart in downtown Berkeley.
The rooms were small though well designed. No comfortable chair if you wished to relax.
Clean room. Big room. A lot of money for these though.
No parking or assistance with parking our car. "Find someplace on the street or use the parking garage down the street". Unexpected.
convenient location
no small cooler in the unit, too noisy in the early morning, wifi signal is poor, very slow.
The location was great for us as we were seeing Jack Johnson at the Greek theater that night. Very comfortable bed, good night's sleep, blackout drapes, double pane windows to block out noise, updated carpet, colorful and tasteful hotel interior, motion sensor lights in the bathroom that came on when you entered. The staff directed us to a parking lot that was only $15 for 24 hours instead of $35 for a closer parking structure.
The price of the room with their city taxes approached $300.
Nice position, very close to subway station 、many restraunts, cafés and super markets nearby
Free wifi, a comfortable bed, safe location, and a friendly staff
Slow internet was a small annoyance, but the two cockroaches I saw on the walls in the hallway soured my experience severely
They upgraded me to the presidential suit, how can you not like that for $200 per night?
Parking was in a garage $27 per night no free breakfast
Location. Clean.
Parking. There isn't a dedicated parking to the building. Parking structure is across the street or behind the building which are separate entities.
Location was excellent
The one person that was the most help was Chris (i think) he went above and beyond the other employees I had dealt with and made sure my 5 month old had a crib to sleep in while I was there.
Great location for restaurants and BART station. Stunning lobby that is elegant yet bright and airy. Wonderful restaurant with great food and very fair prices, especially for a hotel. Room was small but quiet and nicely appointed. Very friendly and helpful staff that went out of their way to make sure that you were taken care of.
Room was small. Only a desk chair, no comfy reading chair.

Eve On Electronics
What glues to use and where, and how to employ them in ways that will provide the best results? It all starts with knowing what you're trying to glue together and then preparing the materials for that bonding process.
There are three basic types of glue adhesion processes. The simplest type is the solvent type of glue. During the semiliquid sem·i·liq·uid
Intermediate in properties, especially in flow properties, between liquids and solids.
sem state of this type of glue, the two parts can be pushed together. As the solvent from the glue dries, the material solidifies and the two pieces are bonded together.
A second type of bonding involves the use of surface pores. All surfaces have some texture, even glass. In automotive applications using plastics, the materials are often filled with glass fiber, talc or mineral fills. The result is that the surface imperfections can be filled with the glue as it's applied. When the glue hardens, these pockets harden, too, but that part of the glue cannot be pulled away without disturbing the material surface. This is a form of mechanical bonding. It works as well as the surface topography allows it to.
The third major type of bonding involves molecular level interaction. In this situation, the electrons of certain types of molecules are not evenly distributed around the nucleus. This means theres a net negative or positive charge at one end of the molecule that can attract an opposite but equal charge on the substrate or glue being used. This is called secondary bonding because it's the chemical bonding of atoms that creates new molecules.
Two kinds of secondary bonding are of interest in the world of glue - dipole-to-dipole bonding and hydrogen bonding hydrogen bonding
Interaction involving a hydrogen atom located between a pair of other atoms having a high affinity for electrons; such a bond is weaker than an ionic bond or covalent bond but stronger than van der Waals forces. . In dipole-todipole bonding, two oppositely charged ends of two molecules are brought close enough together that the dissimilar charges attract each other, like the poles of a magnet.
A good example of dipole-to-dipole adhesion is water, which is two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom. Because of its shape, it's a polar molecule Polar molecule
A molecule possessing a permanent electric dipole moment. Molecules containing atoms of more than one element are polar except where forbidden by symmetry; molecules formed from atoms of a single element are nonpolar (except ozone). . One of the reasons it wets so well to many if not most surfaces is the dipole-to-dipole adhesion that results from its molecular shape.
The term hydrogen bonding refers to the fact that if hydrogen is bonded to oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine fluorine (fl`ərēn, –rĭn), gaseous chemical element; symbol F; at. no. 9; at. wt. 18.998403; m.p. −219.6°C;; b.p. −188.14°C;; density 1. , there will be a change in electronegativity electronegativity (ĭlĕk'trōnĕgətĭv`ətē), in chemistry, tendency for an atom to attract a pair of electrons that it shares with another atom (see chemical bond). that will result in the hydrogen atoms then seeking out other oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine atoms. According to according to
1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.
2. In keeping with: according to instructions.
3. a paper written for the SAE by Daryl Doyle of GMI GMI Governance Metrics International (New York, New York)
GMI Giant Magneto-Impedance
GMI Global MSF Interoperability
GMI General Motors Institute
GMI General Mills, Inc. , it's this combination of dipole-to-dipole and hydrogen bonding that makes water a liquid at room temperature.
So, what all of this means is that before you try to repair a broken plastic part on a vehicle, you need to know what it's made of so you can select an appropriate glue. The good news here is that for the last ten years or so, the International Material Data System and other groups have required that all plastic parts of a vehicle must be labeled with the type of plastic they're made of. If you look at your broken pieces, you'll almost always be able to determine the type of plastic you're dealing with because the name has been molded into the surface.
Correspondingly, glue makers are pretty good about labeling their products as to what types of plastic they'll work with. Plastics widely used in automotive applications include polyesters, polypropylene, ABS, polycarbonate A category of plastic materials used to make a myriad of products, including CDs and CD-ROMs. and others. Of these, the cheapest to make - polypropylene is the also the hardest to bond to.
GMIs Doyle goes on to say in his paper that "for an adhesive to form a bond with a substrate, some type of interaction must occur. This may include mechanical, physical adsorption adsorption, adhesion of the molecules of liquids, gases, and dissolved substances to the surfaces of solids, as opposed to absorption, in which the molecules actually enter the absorbing medium (see adhesion and cohesion). or chemisorption chem·i·sorb also chem·o·sorb
tr.v. chem·i·sorbed, chem·i·sorb·ing, chem·i·sorbs
To take up and chemically bind (a substance) onto the surface of another substance. ." The adhesive has to come in intimate contact with the surfaces being bonded. This is called wetting, and it means the adhesive has spread out to form a thin film over the surface area, with no air pockets formed underneath.
There are a variety of techniques used in the automotive arena to improve adhesion by increasing surface wetting to promote polar bonding. For plastics, the use of plasma etching Plasma etching is a form of plasma processing in which a high-speed stream of plasma is shot (in pulses) at a sample. The atoms of the shot element embed themselves at or just below the surface of the target. The physical properties of the target are modified in the process. , corona etching and/or a flame treatment is common. These methods are used to get the glue to stick to plastic surfaces like polypropylene that would not otherwise have many polar locations on the surface to which the glue can adhere.
The flame treatment should be used only until the surface becomes glossy. You can do this with an oxyacetylene torch oxyacetylene torch (ŏk'sēəsĕt`əlēn), tool that mixes and burns oxygen and acetylene to produce an extremely hot flame. This torch can be used for cutting steel and for welding iron and various other metals. . Just don't overdo it and be careful where else those flames might go. Passing a flame across the surface breaks the chemical bonds that are present at the surface and adds oxygen there. The net result is more polar bonding sites, and the glue sticks a lot better.
Roughening two surfaces to be bonded yields more bonding sites where the hardened glue can achieve a mechanical bond. Cleaning the surfaces of dust and dirt can improve wetting and provides the glue with a solid surface to work on.
One of the gluing problems for plastic parts starts during the molding of these parts. The the has to be designed so the parts can be removed when the injected molten plastic has cooled.
The plastic molder also may use something called processing additives. Sheep dip by any other name, this stuff is poured into the resin pellets to act as a lubricant to facilitate removal of the part from the mold. While it does perform that function, it could mean adhesion problems for glues or epoxies that may be applied later.
According to Doyle's paper, there are many surface preparation techniques that can be used to help give you the best possible bonding surfaces. If you're bonding to metal, the surface must be free of rust or oxidation. Aluminum surfaces may have to be acid-etched to remove its tough oxide layer. Ferrous ferrous (fĕr`əs), iron in the +2 valence state.
Containing or having to do with iron. The difference between ferrous and ferric is the number of valence electrons they contain (ferrous contains two and ferric contains three), which metals often have a residual layer of oil to prevent rust. Glue will not stick well to oily metal.
If you're gluing two very dissimilar materials like plastic and metal that have different coefficients of thermal expansion thermal expansion
Increase in volume of a material as its temperature is increased, usually expressed as a fractional change in dimensions per unit temperature change. , you should use a softer glue that will allow each part some wiggle room wiggle room
Flexibility, as of options or interpretation: ambiguous wording that left some wiggle room for further negotiation.

It's also possible to sand or abrade a·brade

2. To scrape away the surface layer from a part.
abrade ( the workpieces prior to gluing. This not only cleans them but also can improve the bonding surfaces. Just be sure not to leave sanding residue, dust or dirt on the surfaces. Remember, this is all about clean surfaces. Before you reach for your air gun to blow-dry the part, remember that compressed air compressed air, air whose volume has been decreased by the application of pressure. Air is compressed by various devices, including the simple hand pump and the reciprocating, rotary, centrifugal, and axial-flow compressors. often contains moisture and metal particles.
In cases where plastic surfaces are not conducive to molecular bonding, more aggressive surface preparation may be necessary. You must add more bonding sites. You can do this with spray cans of adhesion promoter, or the use of flame, corona, plasma or even - if you happen to have a device in your toolbox - laser treatment.
With a broken plastic component, it can be easy to look at the two clean, freshly fractured pieces and think, Oh well, I'll just glue them back together. This is where the residual processing additives can cause trouble. Not only are there residual materials on the outside of the product that helped in mold removal, but there s more of the same stuff locked inside the plastic. The plastic may have warmed while in service, causing the processing additives to "bloom" out on to the surface. It makes a difference only when you try to glue the pieces back together and the glue won't work. The solution is a dab of acetone acetone (ăs`ĭtōn), dimethyl ketone (dīmĕth`əl kē`tōn), or 2-propanone (prō`pənōn), CH3COCH3 to wipe away the contaminating con·tam·i·nate

2. To expose to or permeate with radioactivity.
adj. chemical you cannot see.
The nature of the joint itself also a factor in the success of your gluing efforts. You may find that it's possible to reinforce the joint or reduce the forces applied to the joint that caused the failure in the first place.
Probably the most important advice of all is to read the label on the tube or jar of glue. You need to understand what you're working on, what the right choice is for an adhesive and what preparation must be done to make sure it sticks.

KNOXVILLE (WVLT) -- The Knoxville Zoo has a pair of brand new residents. Zoo officials confirm two baby Red Panda's were born in captivity earlier in the week.
Their names have not yet been released, but the babies are expected to stay on exhibit with their mother Kumari, while the zoo keeps a close eye on them.
The Knoxville Zoo has become known for its Red Panda's over the last three decades. They boast more Red Panda births than any other zoo in the nation, and currently have the oldest panda in captivity, Flo who is 18 years old.

Honda FCX Clarity fuel-cell car to roll out sooner than expected, in Summer 2008
While initial reports from last year said we could expect hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles from Honda by 2010, the Japanese car company beat that by two years, announcing this week its FCX Clarity fuel cell sedan will be rolling out to consumers for the first time next summer. If you live in Southern California, you might be one of the lucky few to be granted a three-year lease on this sporty looking vehicle, for which you'll pay the almost-reasonable sum of $600 per month. Honda says it's also created a home fueling station for the car, converting conventional natural gas into hydrogen fuel to feed the Clarity's fuel-cell power plant.
Following Honda's lead, General Motors announced yesterday its plans to distribute 100 fuel cell vehicles in California, Washington, D.C., and New York City beginning next year. It's no wonder auto companies are scrambling to produce these techno-sports fuel-cell cars—there's something fundamentally satisfying about the fact that the only byproduct of their engines is a few drops of unusually clean water.

Why else would he have sold them when he did ? I sincerely hope he won't share in the money as I don't feel they would have made it without the emotional lift they got from Pegula, but I wonder. I haven't read anything referencing this issue. What are your thoughts ?

Spidey swings back to action with $140M launch
Your new friendly neighborhood Spider-Man has spun himself a $65 million opening weekend and $140 million in his first six days at U.S. theaters.
Worldwide, "The Amazing Spider-Man" has climbed to $341.2 million.
The movie started off as a smaller domestic moneymaker than the previous three Spidey films, but it laid to rest objections that it was too soon to relaunch the superhero franchise.
The new origin story for the Marvel Comics web-slinger comes just five years after Tobey Maguire and Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man 3."
Oliver Stone's drug-war thriller "Savages" opened at No. 4 with a solid $16.2 million weekend. The concert film "Katy Perry: Part of Me" failed to pack in the pop star's fans, debuting far down the chart with just $7.2 million.

Question & Answers
Stuck in OsTown
One of the pumps we need disappeared - I think it was hit with thinner. Now we are stuck in the level and can not complete the quest. We only have two pumps. What can we do?
Answer from: Cb7489
Same has happened to me...
Answer from: bb
I just found it....from the ground, in front of the pink house, paint just above the top of the house and it will appear
Answer from: ew
Happened to me to, any other ideas, I tried bb's but no luck.
Answer from: usna01
Oh, so frustrating- I think you need to restart the game. My pump just sank into the ground next to the train tracks by Ortensia's house while I tried to drag it over- not even into the thinner. I had already put the other two pumps on the stations, so I couldn't try Prescott's method if I wanted to. Couldn't find a fix for it, ended up just restarting. ARRRGH!
Answer from: Smarties
You guys the pumps havnt disapered trust me i thot they did to then i found them: one is in the green water stuff by a guy which is by the blue house you hav to use the fairy-sketch and lift it out, another pump is in the pink house on the roof just paint it all green abd u will see it, the last one is on the gag factory.
Answer from: Butterflybch1
I'm dealing with the "sunken" pump from ortensia's roof. I tried dragging it over to the plug and it sunk into the ground on the way. I've tried painting from the ground up. EVERYTHING. I can't locate it, and I haven't found any luck searching on websites for it. Any suggestion would be appreciated. I'm playing on XBox, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
