The Florida Gators are about to start a wild month of recruiting and one of the biggest needs in this class is running backs. The new Gators coaching staff has reviewed the roster and they identified running back as a position of need and are already lining visits up with some top prospects.
Last week running back Jordan Cronkrite (5-11, 196, Miami, FL Westminster Christian) reached out to new running backs coach Tim Skipper and the message was straight to the point from Skipper.
"I talked to Coach Skipper last week, I called him and talked to him," Cronkrite said. "He was just telling me that he saw my film last week and that they really think I can be a great player there. Coach Skipper said that he really wants me to come up for a visit as soon as possible."
One of the first running backs new head coach Jim McElwain made a trip to see was Cronkrite and according to the running back the short visit went well.
"I talked to Coach McElwain when he came down to my school to talk to Tim Irvin because Irvin was graduating early," Cronkrite said. "Coach McElwain was telling me that he wants me to come up to Florida and get familiar with all of the coaches and understand what they're trying to do up there. He said that he wants me to feel comfortable with them."
Will Muschamp and the previous Gators staff didn't push for Cronkrite but the Miami native feels different about the new Florida staff.
"Coach McElwain is definitely making me feel like more of a priority because the last staff didn't really talk to me much but Coach McElwain reached out to me right when he got the job," Cronkrite said. "It made me feel good about them but I just need to get them around my parents.
Florida and McElwain will have a chance to impress Cronkrite's parents as the running back will take an official to Florida in January.
"I'm scheduled to go to Louisville on January 16th but I'm not sure about that one anymore," Cronkrite said. "If I don't go to Louisville on the 16th then I'm going to try and go to Florida then but if not I'll go after the 16th. I have three visits left to take but I'm not sure on them right now."
Most prospects wait until signing day to decide but Cronkrite doesn't want to wait that long.
"I would like to make my decision sometime in January if I can," Cronkrite said. "I'm just trying to get some of my visits in first."
INSIDERS TAKE: Florida has made Cronkrite a priority now under McElwain and his new staff. It was always my thought that if Florida made a run at Cronkrite that he would be a Gator and I still believe that.

Henry Charles Albert David Windsor was born on Sept. 15, 1984 in London, England to the Prince and Princess of Wales, Charles and Diana. Prince Harry was third in line to the British throne, after his father and his older brother, Prince William. Even as a young boy, Prince Harry was distinctly more boisterous than Prince William. When photographed, the red-headed child smiled and made faces at the cameras, which earned him the nickname "The Happy Prince." Prince Harry attended Mrs. Jane Mynors' nursery school in West London and later the Ludgrove School in Berkshire. Amidst all the luxuries afforded him, Prince Harry's life was not without conflict and controversy. For years, Prince Harry's looks - red hair and small nose - led to speculation that he was not really Prince Charles' son, but that of similarly tressed James Hewitt, one of Diana's former lovers. The princess denied those rumors, claiming that she did not meet Hewitt until after Prince Harry was born. In 1992, when he was eight, Prince Harry's parents finally parted ways. For many years leading up to the separation, rumors swirled that Prince Charles continued to see his longtime love, Camilla Parker Bowles. As a result of the alleged affair, coupled with the Royal Family's indifference, Princess Diana reportedly battled depression and bulimia throughout her marriage to Prince Charles.
After his parents' divorce in 1996, Harry and William split their time between their parents. Princess Diana took her boys to ordinary places like McDonald's and Disneyland, and also to homeless shelters and AIDS clinics to give them a better understanding of the world. In his father's company, Prince Harry often went riding, skiing, hunting, and fishing with his father and brother, but his sport of choice was polo. On Aug. 31, 1997, Prince Harry woke up to the news that his mother had died as a result of a car accident in a road tunnel in Paris, France. Photographers on motorbikes were allegedly chasing the car that the Princess was in, along with her then-boyfriend, Dodi Al-Fayed, when their car hit a pillar and into a wall. Al-Fayed and the legally intoxicated driver were killed on the scene. The Princess died two hours later at a hospital. A royal funeral was held in Westminster Abbey. Millions of people watched and sympathized with the young princes as they walked behind their mother's coffin. Prince Harry was only 12 when his mother passed away, but during her funeral service, he carried himself with dignity that captured the sympathy of millions of people worldwide. On the Princess' casket, Prince Harry reportedly placed a card made out to "Mummy." During the eulogy, Princess' Diana's brother, Earl Spencer, criticized the media for their relentless hounding of his sister and promised his nephews he and the rest of the Spencer family would continue their mother's quest to give them a normal life.
Following in his brother's footsteps, Prince Harry also attended Eton College, a prestigious public boarding school near London. It was around this time that Prince Harry started inciting controversy, mostly for his constant partying, drinking, and for admitting that he smoked marijuana when he was 17. The Royal Family did not deny the Prince's revelation, but stressed that his use was "experimental." After he graduated from Eton in 2003, Prince Harry spent a year partying in London and then working at a ranch in Australia. He also worked at an orphanage in Lesotho, Africa; while there, he made the documentary "The Forgotten Kingdom: Prince Harry in Lesotho" (2004) about the AIDS crisis in the area. Aside from his philanthropic work, Prince Harry also made headlines when he began dating Chelsy Davy, the daughter of a wealthy Zimbabwean family. When pressed to comment on his relationship with Davy, Prince Harry stayed mum, but he later told Britain's Press Association that Davy was "special" and "amazing." In the fall of 2004, Prince Harry's wild child image intensified when he became involved in a scuffle with a photographer. He was reportedly hit on the nose with a camera before he lunged at the photographer and shoved the camera into the man's face, cutting his lip.
In January 2005, Prince Harry landed in hot water again after photographs of him attending a costume party wearing a Nazi uniform with a Swastika armband appeared on the front page of the British tabloid The Sun. Public outcry ensued. The Prince issued a public apology for his discretion, and admitted that it was "a poor choice of costume." In May 2005, Prince Harry started attending the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, where he was known as Officer Cadet Wales. He graduated from the Academy in 2006 as a Second Lieutenant in the Army and was reportedly eager to start a course that troops usually took before heading out into war, leading to speculation that he might serve on the frontlines in Iraq. But in May 2007, the head of the British Army announced that it was not deploying the Prince due to the threat to his safety and those around him. While Iraq was out of the question, the British Army confirmed in 2008 that Prince Harry had fought on the frontlines in Afghanistan. Prince Harry continued to make tabloid news and reportedly led a playboy lifestyle, much to the dismay of his on-again-off-again girlfriend, Davy. In early 2011, there was speculation over whether Davy would accompany Prince Harry to his brother's highly anticipated wedding to Kate Middleton on April 29. She did attend, but it was not clear if it was as his guest the morning that the world tuned in numbering in the billions to watch a commoner become a royal.
As best man, Prince Harry managed to steal the show by taking a cheeky glance back at the bride as she walked down the aisle, then whispering mischievously to his brother who refused to turn around. What he said was analyzed for days, with most lip-reading experts agreeing it was something along the lines of "What till you see what's coming." After the press insisted on hooking up in the public's mind the bachelor prince and Pippa Middleton, the bride's sister, he resumed his military duties. Now seemingly more comfortable in his royal role, he became an ubiquitous presence at his grandmother's Diamond Jubilee celebration in June 2012 and a month later during London's Summer Olympics, during which he could be seen presiding over ceremonies for the Queen and sitting in the stands with his brother and sister-in-law, cheering on British athletes. Only weeks after the Olympics ended, Prince Harry and a group of friends took a personal vacation to Las Vegas in mid-August. Letting loose some steam, he was photographed poolside with his pals and challenging Olympic gold-winning U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte to a race in the pool. However, when pictures were sold shortly after to outlet TMZ of the third in line for the throne completely naked after playing strip billiards and hugging equally naked women in his VIP suite, it became his most audacious scandal yet and a major embarrassment to the Royal Family, who had just been enjoying a positive shift in public perception for over a year. Once again, the "wild child" was back in the hot seat like never before.

Notes |
Nicknamed "the wild child," Prince Harry spent a day in a drug rehabilitation clinic in 2002 after he admitted to smoking cannabis and drinking alcohol. His father Prince Charles of Wales reportedly sent the 17-year-old to the clinic after learning he smoked cannabis in the grounds of his home and drunk heavily at a local pub. |
In the fall of 2004, he was involved in a scuffle with a photographer. He was reportedly hit on the nose with a camera before he lunged at the photographer and shoved the camera into the man's face, cutting his lip. |
In 2005, British tabloid The Sun published photographs of Prince Harry attending a costume party wearing a Nazi uniform with a Swastika armband. He issued a public apology and admitted that it was "a poor choice of costume." |
Just weeks after the 2012 London Olympics ended, Prince Harry was spotted partying with U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte and a group of friends in a pool in Las Vegas, NV. The following day, TMZ released photographs of the prince playing naked billiards and hugging unidentified women that were taken in his VIP suite. |

While my paragraph might not have done justice to the magnitude of the issue, it is more than "not a word from the Sentinel." It is, in fact, 96 words more than that.
Brittany Wallman
via the Internet
Editor's note: Wallman is a Sun-Sentinel staff writer.
Voters, belly up to the keyboard: It is nice to see the media actually talk to a nonparty affiliate for once ("Enter the Xuna Xone," Bob Norman, October 3). Bravo. Juan Xuna deserves equal billing. The times, they are a changin'.
I created a Website, www.bobhoffman.com/bobreport.html, because it was so frustrating every year trying to find out what was going on. It is my own "Political Gateway" tailored to Broward and Miami-Dade counties. I hope that by 2004, I will be covering all 67 counties of Florida and their cities too.
I list all candidates statewide as well as Websites, phones, e-mails, other online references, Websites against the candidates, TV ads and other video and audio, video of the Bush/McBride debate, and so much more..., and the local papers have not even mentioned it.
Bob Hoffman
via the Internet
Is printing your missive fair enough for you, Gene baby? Robert Bowman's October 3 letter about Bob Norman's column, "Hawking for Israel" (September 26), is one of the most vicious anti-Semitic letters you have ever printed. He uses every bit of bigotry that has ever been printed. Your publishing of this trash makes me wonder about your paper's fairness.
Eugene S. Fish
via the Internet
He's probably still drunk: After reading Bob Norman's September 26 column, I had to pop a bottle of champagne. It was absolutely fantastic. It's so refreshing to see that New Times had the backbone and the guts to tell the truth. And the big truth is oil.
I've never seen so many people run with the flag as they have since September 11, and I don't think many of them knew what it looked like beforehand. I'm old enough that I've seen several wars, and this one is frightening. You just can't crap on the world. The brainwashing that surrounds this war bothers me, and it is alienating us from NATO and the European Union.
You really put all the pieces together in a wonderful article that had to be written. Thanks.
Ed Trabulsi
Pompano Beach
The rabbi performs a mitzvah: I carefully read Bob Norman's September 26 article with the absolutely "vile" illustration on its cover.
I would be interested in learning more about Bob. I would like to learn about his background and study regarding the history of the Middle East. I would like to know where he acquired such "deep insights" regarding the geopolitics of the Middle East. Yes, I am a rabbi and have been the rabbi of Temple Solel for 32 years. We are a congregation consisting of approximately 2500 people. Many of us would like to learn more about where and how Norman acquired his "expertise" on the Middle East situation. Many people including myself found his article to be another example of media ignorance and bias.
Rabbi Robert P. Frazin, D.D.
Hawking on New Times: I was made aware of the "Hawking for Israel" story when I overheard a restaurant conversation at the next table: "It looks like those Israelis are dragging us into a war. Look at the front of the New Times." Calmly, I inquired as to what the speaker was referring to. He pointed to the cover page with a picture of a hawk emblazoned with the Star of David next to the face of Saddam Hussein and an exploding mushroom cloud. I told him I thought the cover was overtly anti-Semitic. He agreed and threw the New Times on the floor.
New Times has paraphrased the Nazi propaganda claim that the Jews dragged Germany into World War I. In my opinion, New Times has forfeited its professional responsibility to fairness in reporting and has now embraced blatant, biased sensationalism and bigotry.
Fred P. Sherman, M.D.
Bob Norman is a patriot, buddy! This is probably a waste of time on my part, because you probably will not wish to have any negative response to your baseless column and are probably even less inclined to print a response such as mine.
I am a World War II veteran who participated in four out of the total of five campaigns that comprised the European War. I am Jewish, and I believe in America first and foremost; however, I recognize that Israel is the only ally America has in the Middle East. Furthermore, Arafat and all of his followers came out in support of Iraq during the Gulf War. In fact, Arafat and his followers supported most anti-U.S. propaganda. I can go on page after page of documented facts.

Tomkins enjoys Irons chance
25 Apr 2008 - 13:55:14
West Ham United youngster James Tomkins is excited about the prospect of challenging for a regular first-team spot at Upton Park in the near future.
The 19-year-old has played three times for the Irons in recent weeks due to an injury crisis and is relishing the opportunity to force his way into boss Alan Curbishley's long-term plans.
Tomkins told the Essex Echo: "My first objective is to play regularly for the first team.
"I'm West Ham through and through. I've been here since I was eight years old. My family background is all West Ham and I don't see myself anywhere else.
"It's brilliant. I've got great support around me. All the players are brilliant to me and have confidence in me. That's given me confidence to try and perform and play well.
"As a youngster being part of this club, a club that has produced so many good players, it's great to be a part of that."
Meanwhile, the Hammers have been credited with an interest in Napoli's Slovakia international midfielder Marek Hamsik, who is also rumoured to have been tracked by Chelsea.

US 5191183 A Abstract An apparatus for calcining and/or sintering ceramic materials comprising a kiln having a heating chamber formed from a microwave impermeable material separated from abutting secondary chambers containing conventional heating means by perforated walls, permitting convectional/radiative heat transfer from the secondary chambers into the heating chamber while minimizing leakage of microwave radiation from the heating chamber. A method for processing ceramic materials in the apparatus comprises applying convectional or convectional/radiative heat to elevate the temperature of a material to increase microwave coupling, and then applying microwave radiation to further elevate the temperature of the material and maintain a desired temperature for a desired length of time.
Claims(6) 1. An apparatus for processing ceramic materials, comprising
an insulated housing providing a heating chamber defining a workspace and a secondary chamber disposed adjacent to the heating chamber, the heating chamber having an interior microwave-impermeable lining enclosing the workspace and access means permitting the materials to be placed in and removed from the workspace, convectional heating means in said secondary chamber, a microwave energy source, waveguide means coupled to the heating chamber for propagating microwave energy into the heating chamber, a perforated wall separating the heating chamber and the secondary chamber to permit convectional and radiative heat transfer from the secondary chamber to the heating chamber, and temperature measuring means for measuring the temperature of the workspace and control means for selectively activating said convectional heating means for preheating the workspace to approximately 500�-600� C. and means for selectively activating the microwave energy source when the ambient temperature in the workspace has reached a selected temperature approximately corresponding to threshold temperature at which microwave absorption of a ceramic material being processed increases significantly. 2. An apparatus as defined in claim 1 including a secondary chamber disposed on each side of the heating chamber thereof, and a pair of perforated walls separating the heating chamber from the secondary chambers to permit convectional and radiative heat transfer from the secondary chambers to the heating chamber.
3. An apparatus as defined in claim 1 wherein said convectional heating means comprises electric resistance heating elements.
4. An apparatus as defined in claim 2 wherein said convectional heating means comprises electric resistance heating elements.
5. An apparatus as defined in claim 1, 2, 3 or 4 wherein the workspace dimensions are defined by the equation ##EQU2## wherein λr =resonant wavelength;
a,b,c =cavity dimensions; m,n,p =integers giving the number of voltage standing wave that occur in the a,b and c dimensions respectively. 6. An apparatus as defined in claim 1, 2, 3 or 4 wherein the lining is metallic.
Description This invention relates to a method and apparatus for manufacturing ceramic materials. In particular, this invention relates to a method and apparatus for sintering and calcining ceramic materials using a combination of conventional and microwave heating Conventional heating, typically comprising convectional or convectional/radiative gas or electric resistance heating, is commonly used to manufacture ceramic materials. However, the slow heating rate and poor temperature control associated with conventional heating methods results in a high energy consumption and inconsistent product quality. Industrial heating by microwave radiation has been successfully used to accelerate the slip casting and drying of traditional ceramics. In comparison with conventional heating, microwave heating can provide a higher heating rate, where there is sufficient microwave absorption, with better temperature control, and thus results in a lower energy consumption and potentially a better quality product. Devices which utilize a combination of conventional and microwave heating are known for use at relatively low temperatures. A common example is the combination microwave/convection oven for cooking food. Convection heating is employed for uniformity of cooking and for purposes of enhancing flavour. Some industrial processes use a combination of convection and microwave heating, also at relatively low temperatures. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,375,441 discloses a combination of microwave and conventional heating to obtain uniform sintering of large, complexly configured or non-homogeneous polymeric articles in order to avoid overfusing of the interior due to uneven heating which may occur if only microwave heating is used. Conventional heating may thus be applied either prior to or subsequent to microwave heating. However, the dielectric loss factor (a measure of microwave absorption) of most ceramic materials is heavily dependent on temperature. Most ceramic materials do not permit significant microwave coupling (microwave absorption) at low temperatures. Since the benefits of microwave heating can only be fully realized when the ceramic material being processed permits significant microwave coupling, it has been a common practice in microwave processing of ceramics to use additives or coupling agents to enhance microwave coupling. It has been found that microwave coupling increases dramatically when the temperature of the ceramic is elevated above a threshold temperature, which varies according to the material being processed, at which the dielectric loss factor increases significantly. By using a combination of conventional and microwave heating, the present invention more efficiently processes ceramic materials. According to the invention, conventional heating is applied to elevate the temperature of ceramic materials to the threshold at which there is a significant increase in microwave coupling, at which point microwave heating is applied. The invention thus reduces both processing time and energy consumption as compared to conventional heating or microwave heating processes. The process of convectional or convectional/radiative heating followed by microwave heating also provides the advantage that the conventional heating phase elevates the ambient temperature of the workspace, thereby reducing the temperature gradient between the interior and the surface of the ceramic materials during the microwave heating phase. A better quality product should result. Those skilled in the art will recognize that within the temperature ranges referred to in this specification the radiative component of energy produced by a conventional heating source, such as an electric resistance heating element, is insignificant. However, in certain materials the dielectric loss factor may not increase significantly until much higher temperatures are obtained, in which case the radiative (infrared) component may become significant. For this reason conventional heating as used herein includes convectional and radiative heating even though in the examples given below convectional heating is the only significant form of heat transfer in the conventional heating phase. The present invention thus provides an apparatus for processing ceramic materials, comprising an insulated housing providing a heating chamber defining a workspace and a secondary chamber disposed adjacent to the heating chamber, the heating chamber having an interior microwaveimpermeable lining enclosing the workspace and access means permitting the materials to be placed in and removed from the workspace, conventional heating means in said secondary chamber, a microwave energy source and control means for selectively activating the microwave energy source when the ambient temperature in the workspace has reached a selected temperature, waveguide means coupled to the heating chamber for propagating microwave energy into the heating chamber, and a perforated wall separating the heating chamber and the secondary chamber to permit convectional and radiative heat transfer from the secondary chamber to the heating chamber. The present invention further provides a method for processing ceramic materials at a desired temperature for a desired length of time, comprising the steps of applying convectional or convectional/radiative heat to elevate the temperature of a material to increase microwave coupling, applying microwave radiation to further elevate the temperature of the material to the desired temperature and maintain the material at the desired temperature for the desired length of time. In drawings which illustrate by way of example only a preferred embodiment of the invention, FIG. 1 is a cross-section of a kiln embodying the present invention; FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the heating chamber illustrated in the kiln of FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is a graphical representation comparing the method of the present invention to conventional heating methods in the calcination/synthesis of alumina trihydrate to alumina; FIG. 4 is a graphical illustration comparing the method of the subject invention to conventional heating in the calcination/synthesis of barium titanate from barium oxide and titanium dioxide; and FIG. 5 is a graphical illustration comparing the method of the present invention to conventional heating in the sintering of zinc oxide. The present invention, illustrated in FIG. 1, comprises a workspace 12 defined by a heating chamber 14. The heating chamber, illustrated in FIG. 2, comprises a top 16, bottom 18, rear 20 and side walls 22 formed from a microwave-impermeable material which should preferably have a high electrical conductivity and be resistant to oxidation at temperatures in the range of 500� C. The heating chamber 14 is contained within a thermally insulated kiln 10 having at least one abutting secondary chamber 24. Preferably secondary chambers 24 are disposed on either side of the heating chamber 14. The secondary chambers 24 contain conventional heating means such as electric resistance heating elements 26. The side walls 22 of the heating chamber 14 are perforated to permit convectional/radiative heat transfer from the heating elements 26 into the heating chamber 14 while minimizing leakage of microwave radiation from the heating chamber 14 to below an allowable industrial limit of 10 mW/cm2. The rear wall 20 of the heating chamber 14 includes an access port 28 for a microwave waveguide 30 through which the microwave generator (not shown) is coupled to the heating chamber 14. Temperature sensing means are provided in any convenient location within the heating chamber 14, and may be coupled to temperature control means for controlling the ambient temperature inside the heating chamber 14. The optimum workspace 12 dimensions as defined by the heating chamber 14 should produce a maximum number of effective frequency modes and well distributed voltage standing waves. The following expression, which gives a resonant wave length (λr) in a cavity was used: ##EQU1## where a, b, and c are the cavity (workspace) dimensions and m, n, and p are integers giving the number of voltage standing waves that occur in the a, b, and c dimensions respectively. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, within an effective microwave frequency range of 2,450 � 10 megahertz (MHz), the optimum dimensions of the heating chamber 14 were found to be 25 cm wide by 27 cm high by 29 cm deep. Austenitic stainless steel type 304L was chosen for the heating chamber 14 since it has high electrical conductivity, good oxidation resistance and excellent welding characteristics. Sheets of 3.2 mm thickness were used for the top 16, bottom 18 and rear 20 of the heating chamber 14, and for the side walls 22 3 mm thick sheets uniformly perforated with 4 mm diameter holes (18,000 per m2) were used to allow maximum convectional heat transfer while preventing microwave leakage. The heating chamber 14 preferably has a circular access port 15 with a tight-fitting access door (not shown), designed in known fashion to resist microwave energy leakage and to prevent arcing. The access opening in the kiln 10 should preferably be large enough to allow the entire heating chamber 14 to be inserted or removed for easy cleaning, repair or replacement. To allow for visual inspection and temperature measurement of the ceramic, view ports with double quartz glazing may be located in the access doors. The microwave waveguide 30 is also preferably formed from 304L stainless steel. The waveguide is preferably about 30 cm long which allows a 15 cm long waveguide section 31 to be outside the kiln 10. Cooling of the waveguide 30 may be provided by coolant pumped through copper tubing (not shown) wound around the external waveguide section 31. The secondary chambers 24 are designed to obtain a maximum temperature of 1,200� C. with an average heating rate of 25� C. per minute. Internal thermal insulation 34 is provided by an `all fibre` alumina-silicate material such as CARBORUNDUM (trade-mark) The outer housing 36 of kiln 10 is constructed of mild steel coated with high temperature enamel. This insulation system should always maintain the outer surface temperature of the kiln below 40� C. Temperature control within the workspace is provided by a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) and a type-K thermocouple. The floor 18 of the heating chamber 14 is lined with a perforated plate of mullite to minimize mechanical wear of the floor insulation 34. In operation, a ceramic material to be calcined/synthesized or sintered is placed in the workspace, and the heating elements are activated. When the ambient temperature in the workspace reaches a desired level (causing a significant increase in microwave coupling, as determined by experimentation), the microwave generator is activated either manually or by known switching means to elevate the temperature of the material to the calcination or sintering temperature and maintain same. The conventional heating source may be deactivated once microwave heating has begun. Alternatively, conventional heating may continue to be applied after microwave heating has begun or even after microwave heating has been stopped. The invention was used to process several ceramic materials. They included Calcination/Synthesis Alumina (Al2 O3) from alumina trihydrate (Al2 O3 3H2 O) Barium titanate BaTiO3) from barium oxide BaO and titanium dioxide (TiO2) Sintering Alumina Al2 O3) Zinc Oxide (ZnO) An infrared (IR) pyrometer was used to sense the temperature of the ceramic materials being processed in the workspace 12. The IR pyrometer readings were calibrated against those of a thermocouple. The differences between the two temperature readings in the 200�-750� C. range increased with increasing temperature. An extensive calibration procedure for the IR pyrometer may be required to cover each different ceramic material over a given temperature range. Furthermore, the temperature measured by an IR pyrometer represents the surface temperature of a sample; during the application of microwave radiation the internal temperature is usually higher than the surface temperature. Other equipment may be used to measure temperature more accurately. In particular, high temperature optical fibre probes are very suitable for this application. In general, the selected materials were preheated to the 200�-600� C. range using conventional heating, followed by microwave heating at various power levels. With respect to calcination/synthesis of alumina trihydrate to alumina, FIG. 3 illustrates the advantages of calcinating this material by the use of conventional heating following by microwave heating versus using microwave heating only. As shown, using 850 W of microwave power, a 20 g sample of alumina trihydrate was heated to approximately 1200� C. in one hour whereupon the microwave power was reduced to 500 W to maintain this temperature. By preheating another 20 g sample to 400� C. and then exposing it to 400 W of microwave power, the sample reached the calcination temperature of 200� C. in a total time of 45 minutes (35 minutes of electric resistance heating plus 10 minutes of microwave heating). Characterization of the sample, processed by a combination of conventional and microwave heating, using X-ray traction techniques indicated that alumina trihydrate powder had been completely transformed to alumina. In contrast, conventional heating for one hour at 1200� C. (plus about 72 minutes to preheat the kiln to 1200� C.) did not produce the required alumina phase. Scanning electron microscopy and the sample calcinated in the hybrid kiln indicated that the grains of the alumina were fairly uniform with an average grain size of the microns. The grains were relatively fine considering that no process optimization was undertaken. With respect to calcinating/synthesizing barium titanate from barium oxide and titanium dioxide, FIG. 4 illustrates the advantages of applying sequentially conventional electric heating following microwave heating versus applying only microwave heating. As shown, using 600 W of microwave power, a 20 g sample required 1.5 hours for complete calcination. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the sample was fully transformed to barium titanate in the expected tetragonal phase, but a high temperature hexagonal BaTiO2.997 was also present. A significant reduction in processing time occurred when samples were first heated by conventional means then by microwave means. The two samples were preheated to 300� C., one sample was followed by 300 W of microwave heating while the other sample was followed by 600 W of microwave heating. The 300 W sample contained a lower amount of hexagonal phase barium titanate. It was clear that the main difference between the two cases was the maximum temperature attained (at 600 W, Tmax =1180� C; at 300 W, Tmax =900� C.). It was apparent that the maximum temperature (surface temperature as measured by IR pyrometer) should not exceed 900� C. 100 g samples of barium oxide and titanium dioxide were also calcinated. A typical temperature profile is shown in FIG. 4. With resistance heating and microwave heating (600 W), the total time for calcination of 100 g samples was 1.5 hours. The X-ray diffraction of these samples showed only the desired tetragonal phase. A SEM photomicrograph of a calcinated 100 g sample had average grain size of approximately one micron with events of some melting and agglomeration between grains. FIG. 5 illustrates the temperature profiles of 3 gram zinc oxide samples heated by microwave (900 W) and by applying convectional preheating to a sample temperature of 200� C. followed by microwave heating at 500 W. By using 500 W of microwave power, the temperature of the sample was kept constant at 650� C. (as measured by the IR pyrometer) for 70 minutes. The density of a sintered sample was 5.2 g/cm3, which is equivalent to 94.5% of the theoretical density of pure zinc oxide. It was clear that the sintered samples had a very thin layer that was not completely sintered. Subsequent tests were undertaken with samples completed insulated with saffile. The density of an insulated sintered sample was 5.1 g/cm3 (ie. 92.7% of theoretical density). However, a surface layer with a maximum thickness of 0.45 mm was still present. It is expected that zinc oxide samples may be perfectly sintered with some process optimization. Using a high efficiency (high heating rate) electric kiln, the actual convectional energy consumption for alumina hydrate calcination was measured. For a 20 g sample, a dwell time of 2 hours was required at 1000� C. A 20 gram sample was heated to 1000� C. in one hour. After a two hour dwell period at this temperature, the kiln was turned off and the sample was allowed to cool within the kiln. The total energy consumption for calcination of 20 g of alumina trihydrate by convectional electric heating was 6.0 kWh. By comparison, the hybrid kiln total energy consumption to calcinate 20 g sample was 5.07 kWh. Convectional heating consumed 18% more electrical energy than the combined use of convectional and microwave heating. Similarly, the calcination of barium titanate by the hybrid kiln was determined to be 1.7 kWh as compared to 6.0 kWh by convectional heating. Alumina used for sintering tests was the A-16, 99.7% pure type. The average grain size of this powder was less than one micrometer. Samples weighing 5, 20 and 40 grams were prepared for sintering. Using 900 W of microwave power, none of the samples exceeded a temperature of 250� C. in a period of 1.5 hours. Pure alumina has a very low dielectric loss factor at ambient temperatures. However, at temperatures near 500� C. the dielectric loss factor of pure alumina increases significantly. The invention was applied using a heating schedule of preheating by convectional heating to 500� C. followed by 900 W of microwave heating. A 20 g sample insulated with Saffile fibre insulation was heated under these conditions. The resulting sintered sample showed no cracks and was uniformly sintered except for a minor spot on the top centre where there was evidence of melting. The measured density of the sample was 3.88 g/cm3 (ie. 97% of the theoretical density). In comparison, conventional heating required 20 hours to sinter pure alumina to 96% of the theoretical density. Using an equivalent conventional kiln, the total energy required for sintering alumina was 9 kWh (assuming a heating range of 1000� per hour with a dwell time of 2 hours). The kiln of the present invention required only 4.2 kWh to process the same amount of alumina. Patent Citations

Vocational Training Centres Provide Young People with Career Opportunities |
Photo: Ms. C. Mathisse |
High unemployment, the changing demands of the job market, economic marginalization, and lack of training facilities - these are only a few of the difficulties confronting youths once they have finished school. SOS Vocational Training Centres is SOS's way of providing youths with fair starting possibilities, empowering them to address the myriad social and economic demands the 'real world' places on them confidently and independently.
The economic imbalance between North and South, among other things, demands that training programs and methods of guidance vary by region. The diversification of the job market, national economic factors, regional job offers, the social background of each youth, the particulars of the location of the training centres - these are all aspects which have to be considered when constructing an SOS Vocational Training Centre.

Some of the SOS Vocational Training Centres offer temporary jobs where the youths can gain practical experience and sell the products and/or services. SOS Vocational Training Centres can take the form of either small workshops or large projects offering training in a variety of trades to hundreds of young people. Often the centres work together with local firms or other partners.

It looks like Ellen Pompeo is having a mom's night out at the movies. The actress was spotted going to the movies with a friend to see "The Bourne Ultimatum" in Los Angeles, Calif. on Friday afternoon.
While I really don't get to go out to the movies too often (hey, I'm a mom!), with the times that I do, I make sure it's for a really good movie I want to see, and it looks like Ellen is the same way. I mean, how can you resist Jeremy Renner in an action film, right?
Check out our photo gallery of Ellen and tell us, how often do you have a mom's night out?

Construction, Dimensions
Apple's aluminum unibody construction idea gives iPad Mini a solid, sturdy feel and simplifies servicing. Nexus 7's (pictured) case is plastic, but according to reports, it feels quite solid compared with last year's model and other inexpensive tablets. Putting them side by side, one might describe Google's as long and thin, while Apple's is short and fat. In reality, the two are almost precisely the same length: 7.9 inches. The iPad Mini is 5.3 inches wide against Nexus 7's 4.5 inches. Apple has Google on device thickness. The iPad Mini opens the micrometer to 0.28 inches, whereas Nexus 7 stretches to 0.34 inches. Due mainly to its larger glass panel, Apple's device weighs 0.68 pounds compared with Google's 0.64 pounds.

I have had difficulty figuring out how to use F# on Linux - I would really appreciate help.
Well, My box: Ubuntu, mono, fsharp, emacs and fsharp-mode with fsharp-mode you have
Also, you can try to install .net 2.0 on wine (with winetricks for example) together with sharpdevelop 2.2. Personaly i've decided to use emacs and fsharp-mode. UPDATE: another option is to use regular editor such as kate in OCaml mode but it can be inconvenient due to differences between languages. |
Here's a similar question with detailed answers: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/832552/how-to-get-f-working-with-mono/832953#832953 Simple example of compilation command can be found at here: http://gist.github.com/raw/144209/02f2f4450ed8261c5e4f3c18055de89ff0db9612/FebKit.fs |
This question is quite old now, but this can help other people. In CodePlex there is a project called F# cross-platform packages and samples. It has some linux packages (and also for Mac). Click here for the download page. |
Google for F#, and the very first entry that comes up is http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/cambridge/projects/fsharp/ - and one of the first things on that page is: Download F# now --> Visual Studio 2010, or CTP Update for Visual Studio 2008 or standalone compiler+library ZIP, for Mono and Windows Have you installed that, and is something not working for you? |
Keke, this is a late answer, but I have a post that explains how you can install F# under Linux and Mac systems. It assumes you understand how to compile software for Linux. Here it is: http://blog.gnucom.cc/2009/installing-f-on-ubuntu-8-04/ Let me know what you think. |

Greetings, KuKd/TTC Mommas-n-Hunks and Inquisitive Guests!
Okay. I'm not trying to bash the public here. Just an innocent question that's popped into my head lately: WTF do people think happens to a baby/fetus when the pregnancy ends before it's supposed to? I mean, do they think it gets...like...instantly absorbed back into the mother's bloodstream? Extracted surgically? Puked out? Beamed up, Scotty? Extracted in the middle of the night by a grim-reaper equivalent of the baby-toting stork - like a black stork of death? Does it stick around inside the uterus and reincarnated into the next baby, if there is one? I'm just wondering - because these past few weeks, I've been directly or indirectly told/warned by several people about how hard labor is, how tired I'm going to be afterward, how important those Kegal exercises are, how I'd better be ready to lie around the house all day with ice packs pressed against my bruised and battered private parts, how I've got hemorrhoids and crotch-sticthes and other awesome bodily thrills to look forward to, how painful or not painful or amazing or not amazing it is to push a six-pound entity with arms and legs out of one's vag. And not just any old people, like the superstar Seattle moms who approach me at the Greenlake community center to offer unsolicited birthing advice (yup!), but colleagues! Friends! People who know me! People who know my history! I think it's kind of funny, actually - so I just smile and nod, rather than snarkily responding with "yeah, I know." Why not let people think they're bestowing some sort of ancient secret knowledge upon me. But seriously, WTF? I guess that whole unsavory detail of stillbirth or even miscarriage gets blocked out of people's minds. Weird. Coming soon: another WTF - this one related to Jehova's-Witness-Amway-Salespeople-Homebirth-Advocates. |

The region of Veneto in Italy is home to the Corvina grape varietal, a much sought after and prized grape which is used in the production of several of Italy's finest red wines. Corvina by itself produces wines with a bright crimson color, light to medium in body, and holding lovely bright cherry flavors with a slightly bitter after taste. However, it is most enjoyed when blended with small quantities of other Italian wines, as this results in the famous and much loved wines of Amarone and Valpolicella beautifully balanced, rounded and delicately aged wines which are some of the most popular and widely admired red wines of Italy. Corvina grapes have a naturally high level of acidity, and thick skins which contain little tannin, but which protect the grape from rot.
Veneto's wine are much loved around the world for their strength of character, and the region itself is an interesting one from a viticultural perspective. Sheltered by the Alps, Veneto is protected by the harsh central European climate, making it possible to grow a wide range of high quality grape varietals, which wineries manage to do to great effect. This beautiful corner of north-eastern Italy has over ninety thousand hectares under vine, with over a third of this area having the prestigious DOC rating awarded to it by the Italian government. Veneto is Italy's second largest producer of wines, and their dedication to quality and innovation brings about a fantastic range of wine styles, enjoyed around the world for their flavors, aromas and distinctive character.
There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' the land of wines so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
