Background: Veal calves are given a milk replacer diet to obtain so-called 'white meat'. They are kept inside and mostly reared in individual pens on a slatted floor for the whole fattening period. Veal calf production is an important sector of animal husbandry, closely related to dairy production. Over the last two decades there has been increasing public concern for the welfare of veal calves. Criticism centred on small space allowance per calf, no social contact, the barren environment in which the calves are kept, the denial of roughage and the low haemoglobin levels which are maintained to produce the white meat. Regulations on the welfare of veal calves have been adopted at the EU level, with Council Directive 91/629/EEC laying down minimum standards for the protection of calves. Recently, the Commission proposed amendments to the Directive in respect of housing and space allowances. The Commission also intends to adopt amendments to the provisions of the annex to the Directive related to several other aspects of the welfare of calves, including the provision of roughage and daily fresh drinking water. Objectives: The ultimate goal of this project is to identify management strategies in the veal calf production chain, within the terms of present and new EU regulations, to improve veal calf welfare and at the same time to produce a meat quality in conformity with market demands. In the research, interactions between different factors in the production chain are being studied in detail with regard to their consequences for welfare and meat quality. Emphasis will be placed on the following factors in the veal calf production chain: transport (both at an early age to the rearing unit, and, at the end of fattening, to the slaughter house), housing, feeding and stockmanship. On the basis of comprehensive knowledge about relations and interactions between these factors, integrative management strategies will be proposed. Description: The following detailed objectives (tasks) will be fulfilled: 1) determination of physiological and behavioural responses of young calves to transport; 2) evaluation of the effects of various roughages, added to the milk replacer diet of veal calves, on welfare (behaviour, physiological measures, pathology of digestive organs) and meat quality; 3) determination of effects of provision of water to veal calves, with or without roughage in the diet, on welfare and meat quality; 4) investigation of the interaction between housing system of veal calves and feeding of roughage; 5) assessment of the effect of extra human contact on welfare of veal calves with different levels of social contact; 6) study of the effects on slaughter-weight calves, of loading and unloading, a three-hour road journey and space allowance during transport on meat quality and the ability to cope with transport; 7) determination of effects of food deprivation prior to slaughter on behavioural and physiological responses to transport; 8) investigation of stockmanship effects (farmers'attitudes and practices) on the welfare of veal calves and interactions with effects of transport on meat quality; 9) comparison of performance, technical results and meat quality of veal calves reared in different management systems adopting welfare friendly feeding regimes; The feasibility of suggested feeding regimes will be evaluated in large scale trials on commercial veal operations. Current situation/results: Task 1. Experimental work has been completed. In 1999 some additional statistical analyses of the results were undertaken. The identification of optimal space allowances, and the determination of the effect of duration of lairage during transport on the physiological and behavioural responses of young calves have been achieved. Task 2, 3, 4 Experiments have been completed. Data-analyses is in progress. Roughages that permit rumen development, reduce abnormal behaviours, and give good meat quality have been identified. Task 5. The final (fourth) batch of the main experiment within this task was completed by the end of 1999. Data are currently being statistically analysed. Task 6. Experimental work has been completed, data analyses are in progress. Task 7. Experimental work has been completed. Calves were studied in two subsequent batches. Blood samples were taken around transport. Laboratory assays and data analyses are in progress. Task 8. Actual observations for the second part of the study started in June 1998. The experimental work was completed in February 1999. Results will be available at the beginning of 2000. Task 9. Experiments with some 1000 calves (half the total number involved in this task) started in September 1998. A second replicate of this experiment with another 1000 calves started in October 1999. These calves will be slaughtered in April/May 2000.

Latest in Marketing Trends
Innovation Is Key In Driving Dairy Success
For decades, the U.S. dairy market was as uncomplicated as a glass of plain milk. Now, however, it is changing much like the consumers who are living in smaller households, constantly connected and have increasingly hectic schedules. They are buying less milk, in part because they can choose from other non-dairy and beverage options. Understanding what drives them can help dairy producers increase market share. Read More
IDFA's Connie Tipton Discusses Dairy Trends
Five years is a small stretch of time, but in the short span from now until 2020, the world will see about $20 trillion in global GDP growth, a billion additions to the global middle class and (deepening the worldwide urbanization trend) 350 million people moving from rural areas into cities. The dairy producers best prepared for these and other dramatic changes are the ones best positioned to succeed. Read More
Generation Alpha: Young But Already Mighty
"The children are our future," says the iconic song "The Greatest Love of All." That's as true in grocery stores as anywhere else: toddlers in strollers soon will be pushing shopping carts and making their own purchases. However, with these kids already influencing food and beverage buys, the future is now. Read More
Millennials: Sell The Pleasure, Not The Guilt
It may seem counter-intuitive, especially given Millennials' $1 trillion a year buying 'habit,' but nearly 40 percent of our nation's 80 million Millennials are unemployed, according to a Pew Research Center report released late last year. And a third of those young adults are still living at home with their parents. Still, this doesn't seem to be stopping them from spending like it's going out of style. Read More
Paleo Diet Trend Offers Opportunities
Fad diets are as numerous as the poppy-seeds on a bun, and most loom in the consumer's mind just as large as the tiny black specks. Remember 2012's lemon-detox diet (10 days of ingesting nothing but lemons, water and detoxification packets) of a few years ago? Probably not--even though Beyonce was reportedly a fan, the practice quickly faded from the diet charts. Read More
10 Magazines Agree: Gender Is Hazy For Millennials
It may be time to throw the proverbial "baby out with the bathwater" given the gender-blurring proclivities of 80-million plus Millennials, now 18-32 and the largest generation to ever exist. Read More
Eating Alone Is The New 'Me Time'
Norman Rockwell might be disappointed to learn that nearly half of all the eating occasions in the U.S. today are spent alone. But just because Americans aren't gathering their families around the communal kitchen table as frequently for shared meals doesn't mean those 'occasions' can't be meaningful. Read More
Organic Food Industry Faces Pricing Challenges
Organic food sales are expected to reach $35 billion in 2014, according to Nutrition Business Journal and the USDA. While that's only a small fraction of the $565 billion grocery industry, organics are the market segment logging the highest growth rate at 11.5 percent. It's also a segment that has proven highly profitable. Read More
Moms Like Jessica Alba Favor Companies With A Cause
Want to reach today's Moms and the dollars they wield? Savvy marketers are finding success by adopting a cause. A recent study by Cone Communications on the strategy, aptly called cause marketing, shows 92 percent of mothers want to buy products that support causes, and 95 percent of them find the tactic acceptable. Read More
Gen Z Eating Habits Make Brands Rethink Products
Heating up a snack in the microwave doesn't cut it for today's youth, who have grown up during the local foods movement's rise and watched celebrity chefs promoting home cooking and fresh foods. Not surprisingly, Generation Z is incorporating these concepts into its food choices, opting to spend more time whipping up stove-top concoctions and favoring fresh foods over the convenience of prepared foods, notes Medical Daily. Read More
Moms' Brand Loyalty: What Motivates Them To Buy?
A half century after the Baby Boomers embraced the feminist movement, "next-gen leaders" believe "there are no inherently male or female roles in society," notes the venerated policy weekly National Journal. Despite the equality that suggests, research shows Millennial Moms are responsible for the great majority of buying decisions in their families, notes Thimon De Jong of the Dutch strategy consultancy TrendsActive.

Millennials' Shopping Habits: What They Really Want Is Surprising
With all that's written about Millennials' shopping habits, it's easy for businesses to assume that they've got them down. Pew Research Center's notable work on this generation defines them as confident, self-expressive, liberal, upbeat, frugal and receptive to new ideas--qualities that all relate to their shopping style. Read More
Baby Boomers' Eating Habits Will Affect Your Business
If 60 is the new 40, as many Baby Boomers claim, then 90 is the new 79. Ninety is the median age that more than 2,000 U.S. adults cited when the Pew Research Center's Religion & Public Life Project asked them how long they expect to live, and 79 is the average U.S. life expectancy. No wonder consumers aged 55 and older are modifying their lifestyles by eating more fresh foods, according to The Hartman Group. Read More
Online Grocery Means Growth for CPG; Capitalize on the Trend
The days where shoppers wander the grocery aisles and squeeze the produce are becoming less common. For instance, a 2013 survey of professionals by the Center for Creative Leadership found that 60 percent of those who carry a smartphone are connected to their jobs about 72 hours a week. Read More
Tap Into The Snacking Trend To Spur New Sales
Gone is the traditional standard of eating three square meals a day; research shows that snacking is playing a bigger role in daily life. In fact, 87 percent of Americans snack at least once a day, and 99 percent of them enjoy snack food in general. And experts project the snack category to increase to $47.5 billion by 2015. Read More

Food Stamps Changes May Help Some Retailers, CPG Companies
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, but aka food stamps) took a 5 percent hit in its allocations for the disadvantaged on Nov. 1, which could mean lost sales for food and beverage makers and retailers across the board. But that's not necessarily so. Read More
Americans' Quest For Fresh Foods Impacts Packaging
'Fresh is best' has become a mantra as Americans heed healthy eating advocates and strive to consume more fruit and vegetables. And in truth, the trend has become so prevalent that "80 percent (of consumers) look for the descriptor "'fresh' when it comes to retail" and "nine in ten people think fresh foods are healthier" notes research from food service consultancy Technomic. Read More
Selling Sustainability: It Doesn't Always Close the Sale
Survey after survey shows that sustainability is not only a top priority for today's food and beverage consumers -it's gaining in stature. A newly released report from the market research firm The Hartman Group, Sustainability 2013, showed that 84 percent of American consumers consider sustainability when making purchase decisions, and myriad studies show that more than 50 percent of consumers will pay more to "go green."

GenZ Kids Have Their Say In The Beverage Aisles, And It's Often NO: How Brand Marketers Can Help

The Golden Years Offer Platinum Sales Opportunities; Ignore Them And Lose
With 80 million Milliennals moving into their prime and poised to start families and support larger homes, and about 45 million Gen X-ers in the throes of family life, it's easy for manufacturers and retailers to overlook older shoppers. That would be a serious mistake with dire consequences for their bottom lines. Read More
Millennials' Frugal And Green Lifestyles Are Raising The Bar For Brands
As nearly 80 million Millennials inherit the lion's share of purchasing power from their Baby Boomer forbearers, their shopping habits are coming center stage for retailers and consumer packaged goods companies. Now spending a conservatively estimated $200 billion per year, they are both notoriously eager to drop whatever is necessary to scoop up the latest computer or communications technology, but are often cautious and thrifty when it comes to buying in other categories.

I continue to live blog Wiki news and views every day. Here's yesterday's dozens of items. Some late highlights follow.
NYT confirms Reuters story from yesterday about rumored next big WikiLeaks release—on Guantanamo detainees, with Assange holding files on all 800 prisoners from awhile back... James Rainey of LA Times on why WikiLeakers are not quite Rosa Parks, plus this advice: "Leaker-people, make your business about the leaks, not your leader."... We reported earlier mystery of that Wiki-related e-book suddenly disappearing from Amazon. Turns out author himself pulled it, not Amazon... Wired: Military bans thumb drives, disks, threatens court martials, to stop leaks.
Assange attorney, after meeting with him for one hour only, says Assange wishes to defend himself against charges he is directing or applauding hacking: "It is absolutely false. He did not make any such instruction, and indeed he sees that as a deliberate attempt to conflate hacking organisations [with] WikiLeaks, which is not a hacking organisation. It is a news organisation and a publisher." Also planning for US espionage charges and extradition move, which some say may be imminent.
SORRY CHARLES Prince Charles's car attacked in escalating London student protests over massive tuition hikes—but they thought he and others inside were merely "Tory scum." But UK outraged....
BITS & PIECES NYT joins Ebert in panning The Tourist—disappointment from director of the truly great The Lives of Others... Jim Morrison gets pardoned in Florida but still not pardoned for some of The Doors' crappy late albums.
TODAY's LAFF
Seemingly every WIki revelation of past twelve days boiled down in one wacky three-minute global recap.
TODAY's MUSIC
After this week, in and out of Congress, it seems like a good time to go with one of the greatest songs ever, Dylan's "Chimes of Freedom," here done by The Boss, 1988. "Tolling for the luckless, the abandoned, the forsaked/ Tolling for the outcast, burning constantly at stake."

edford County officials have now gone on record that the county has no intent to regulate the subject matter of what its citizens seek to do when they exercise their constitutional right to assemble.
That's admirable, but it really wasn't ever the issue that brought national attention to the county after county officials told the Cowboy Church in Moneta more than a year ago that it had to stop worshiping in a barn.
At the heart of that issue was the use of facilities and the zoning regulations surrounding it.

Package and deploy your app
To package and run your app, you can use the Momentics IDE for BlackBerry or the command-line tools that are provided with the BlackBerry 10 Native SDK.
When you package an app, you create a .bar file. The .bar file is built using information from the bar-descriptor.xml file and the compiled binaries from the project or code base. You can run your app after you deploy the .bar file to a device or simulator.
Choose a deployment mode
You can run your app in development mode or in release mode:
- Development mode
- In development mode, the package is defined during packaging and cannot be changed later. The only way to change the package is to uninstall the app. This development mode isn't related to Development Mode on the device.
- Run release mode
- Run release mode mimics the installation environment that users have when they get the app from BlackBerry World. For example, in release mode, there are more restricted file system permissions. If your app uses a file that is available only in debug mode, then the app will not work when users download it from the BlackBerry World storefront.
The following table shows how features and tools behave differently in development mode and run release mode:
Feature or tool | Development mode | Run release mode |
Packaging | The app is packaged with the -devMode flag. | The app is not packaged with the -devMode flag. |
Signing | The app cannot be signed. | The app must be signed. |
Package ID | The default package ID starts with testDev (unless you specify the static ID that the signing tool assigned). | The package ID is assigned by the Signing Authority service. |
User ID (UID) and group ID (GID) | UID=100 GID=900-999 (A maximum of 100 development apps are allowed.) |
The UID and GID are unique for each app. |
Assets | Read-write permission is given to devuser. | Read-only permission is given to the app owner. No read permission is given to any other user. |
Sandbox | Read-write permission is given to devuser and app. | Read/write permission is given to only the app. No tools can access the app, including the debugging tool. |
Navigator | No timeouts. No stopped processor. No pooling. | There is a timeout on startup and shutdown. The processor can be stopped. Pooling is supported. |
Running, debugging, or testing | When you run or debug an app, the IDE packages the app in development mode, even if you select the Device-Release configuration. | You cannot debug the app. For information about testing the app, see Debugging a C/C++ app. |
To specify the deployment mode:
- On the toolbar, in the Launch configuration drop-down list, select a launch configuration.
- In the Launch mode drop-down list, select Run or Run Release.
- In the Launch target drop-down list, select a device or simulator.
Create a release build
To test your app in release mode, export the release build, install the .bar file package, and then test the app.
- On the File menu, click .
- Click Next, and then follow the instructions in the wizard.
- In the Project Explorer view, expand the BAR Packages folder, and then open the Device-Release .bar file.
- In the .bar file, click Install.
- Test the app.
Configure packaging options
You can use the configuration settings on the Upload tab to define both the name of the folder that will contain the .bar file and the way that your app is packaged and deployed on the target.
Package and run using the command line
You can package and run your app outside of the Momentics IDE by using command-line tools.
Before you can package and run your app using the command line, there are a few things you need to do:
- Determine the location of your APPDATA environment variable. In Windows, you can enter echo %APPDATA% at a command prompt. The location should be similar to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\BlackBerry.
- Create a BlackBerry ID token.
- Set Development Mode on your device to On.
- Connect your device to your computer or start your simulator.
For details, see Set up your environment.
If you connect to the Internet through a proxy server, append the following additional options to the blackberry-keytool commands.
Option | Description |
-proxyhost <host> |
The network host that provides the proxy service. The host parameter can be an IP address or a fully-qualified domain name. |
-proxyport <port> |
The port number that the blackberry-signer and blackberry-debugtokenrequest tools use to communicate with the Signing Authority Service. |
-proxyusername <user_name> |
The user name to use when the proxy server requires authentication. |
-proxypassword <password> |
The password to use when the proxy server requires authentication. |
There are several command-line tools that you need to prepare your device for development, create and upload a debug token, and package and deploy your app:
- blackberry-debugtokenrequest
- Creates debug tokens on your computer.
- blackberry-deploy
- Deploys apps (.bar files) to a device. Use this command to deploy a debug token as a .bar file.
- blackberry-nativepackager
- Packages the compiled binaries for your app as a .bar file.
- blackberry-signer
- Digitally signs your app, which is necessary before you publish and distribute your app. You can also use this command to authenticate your BlackBerry ID token.
You can find these tools in the usr/bin subfolder where you installed the BlackBerry 10 Native SDK. To make it easier to run the tools, add the path to the usr/bin subfolder where you installed the Native SDK to the PATH environment variable for your operating system.
For more information about a command-line tool, run the tool from the command line with no options.
Register your BlackBerry ID token using the command line
You need to register with the Signing Authority Service using the BlackBerry ID token for app signing by using the blackberry-signer tool. You need to register your signing token once.
To register your BlackBerry ID token:
- At the command prompt, run the blackberry-signer tool with the following options:
- <password> is a password that you specify for the keystore.
- <bbidtoken.csk> is the path name to the app signing .csk file that you downloaded when you created your BlackBerry ID token.
blackberry-signer -storepass <password> <bbidtoken.csk>
- author.p12
- barsigner.csk
- barsigner.db
The message "Successfully registered with the server" is displayed and an email is sent to you. It is a good idea to back up your signing token.
Create and upload a debug token using the command line
If you are working with a device and not the simulator, you need to add a debug token to your device to run an unsigned app.
To create and upload a debug token:
- At the command prompt, change directory to where you installed the Momentics IDE.
- Run the blackberry-debugtokenrequest tool with the following options:
- <csk_password> is the password for the keystore that you used when you registered.
- <pathname_p12> is the path name to the .p12 file.
- <device_pin> is the hex value of the PIN for your device. Add the prefix 0x. To find the PIN of a device, open the Settings app on your device, tap About, and then select Hardware in the Category drop-down list. Record the value from the PIN field.
- <password> is the password for the keystore that you used when you registered.
- <project.bar> is the .bar file for your project.
blackberry-debugtokenrequest -cskpass <csk_password> -keystore <pathname_p12> -deviceID <device_pin> -storepass <password> <project.bar>
- Run the blackberry-deploy tool with
the following options:
- <project.bar> is the .bar file for your project.
- <device_ip> is the IP address of your device.
- <device_password> is the password for your device.
blackberry-deploy -installDebugToken <project.bar> -device <device_ip> -password <device_password>
Package and deploy your app using the command line
Before you package and deploy your app, make sure that you have compiled your code as binaries.
To package your app:
- At the command prompt, change directory to where your project and code are located.
- Run the blackberry-nativepackager
tool with the following options:
- <native_sample> is the name of your app.
- <build_config> is the build configuration.
blackberry-nativepackager -package <native_sample.bar> bar-descriptor.xml -configuration <Device-Debug>
You can change the build configuration from Device-Release or Device-Debug (a BlackBerry device) to Simulator to run your app on a simulator.
To deploy your app on your device:
- Run the blackberry-deploy tool
with the following options:
- <device_ip> is the IP address of your device.
- <password> is the password for your device.
- <package_bar_file> is the name of the .bar file that was created during the packaging process.
blackberry-deploy -installApp -launchApp -device <device_ip> -password <password> <package_bar_file>
You can deploy your app to more than one device using the blackberry-debugtokenrequest tool. For example, you can run the following command:
blackberry-debugtokenrequest -storepass <KeystorePassword> -devicepin <PIN device 1> -devicepin <PIN device 2> -devicepin <PIN device n> <debug_token_file_name.bar>

Update Monday 9:22 Am: Here's the 60 Minutes clip we were talking about over the weekend in which Larry David refutes the amount of money he made off of Seinfeld. It's actually an outtake from the interview which wasn't included in last night's episode. David calls the figures that the media has reported on his worth over the years "ridiculous and absurd and unseemly." "I don't have that kind of money! My wife took half of it in the divorce," David tells Charlie Rose… »

Larry David created "Seinfeld," one of the most successful sit-coms in television history, so how did it change him? It gave him lots of money, but he still lacks the confidence to say hello to a woman in a bar, he says in a new "60 Minutes" interview. David couldn't avoid firing off a barrage of acerbic one-liners in new preview of his conversation with Charlie Rose. ...Read More »

It's still hard to believe the cinematic world has lost both Robin Williams and Philip Seymour Hoffman in the past year. Ethan Hawke had the good fortune to work with both actors at pivotal stages in his career. As a young up-and-comer, he played one of Williams' students in Peter Weir's "Dead Poets Society," and as a much more seasoned actor, he co-starred with Hoffman in Sidney Lumet's final film "Before The Devil Knows You're Dead." Stopping by "Charlie Rose" recently, Hawke shared his memories on working with both actors. A brief summary couldn't capture the emotions he feels very deeply about two men who clearly left a profound impression. Check it out below, and after that watch the full thirty minute interview with Hawke talking "Boyhood," his documentary "Seymour: An Introduction," and much more.

So as Birdman heads into Oscar season, the screenwriter reveals that the movie almost ended with a massive cameo that would've made us forget (at least a little bit) about Mortdecai.
While on The Q & A with Jeff Goldsmith podcast, Birdman screenwriter Alex Dinelaris talked about how the ending of the film almost didn't go the way it ended up and that the movie would've transitioned from Michael Keaton to another actor before the credits rolled.
"So we had one other ending that was satirical. The other ending was that he shoots himself on the stage. The camera comes around to the audience and their standing ovation — all the way around, like Chivo [Emmanuel Lubezki] and Alejandro did the whole time — and the segue was back on to the stage and on the stage was like James Lipton or Charlie Rose and Michael [Keaton] was sitting across from him and »

At the beginning of January, The Playlist posted an interview with Birdman director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu discussing the film as well as mentioning a different ending for the film. He told the site, "It had a different ending but in the middle of shooting, I knew it was a piece of sh*t. I felt it and the film began to breathe by itself, and the characters began to grow. I went in and wrote it with Alexander Dinelaris and Nico Giacobone, and I am so happy that I changed it. Now I feel very good about the ending. It feels very fair." amz asin="B00RO49JEI" size="small"When asked what it was, Inarritu said, "I will never tell you. It would be so embarrassing. It was bad."

Charlie Rose seems ubiquitous on TV these days, given his roles as a co-anchor on "CBS This Morning" and as long-running host of his own "Charlie Rose" show on PBS. At an earlier point in his career, however, he just hoped to be as successful as Phil Donahue. He received one of his first mentions in Variety back in 1979, when he took over as host of a morning show and program director at Kxas in Fort Worth, Texas. The experience would prove to be a crucial stepping-off point.
Talk about your decision to move to Fort Worth. You'd been doing a morning program in Chicago.
I wanted to host my own show. I met someone, Blake Byrne, who turned out to be from Duke, and I had graduated from Duke. He said, "Come here, I'd love to have you do a new morning program. We'll call it 'The Charlie Rose Show, »

As Ava DuVernay's "Selma" moves out into wide release Friday, just 10 days shy of the Martin Luther King holiday on Jan. 19, the film finds itself in a tug-of-war over accuracy and dramatic license. If you've only skimmed the headlines or caught wind peripherally, here's a quick timeline of some of the debate's highlights. *** December 22: Things begin just before the holiday, when Mark K. Updegrove, director of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum, blasts the film's depiction of the King/Johnson dynamic at Politico. "'Selma' misses mightily in faithfully capturing the pivotal relationship — contentious, the film would have you believe," he writes. He then details how Johnson's feet-dragging on the issue of voting rights was less about simple trepidation than politicking and finding the best way to time out the series of events so that Congress wouldn't stop it cold: "Yes, Johnson advocated stripping a potent »

US 4194490 A Abstract A free standing thermal reflector apparatus is provided. When the apparatus is inserted into a fireplace and a fire is lit, heat from the fireplace is reflected into the room in which the fireplace is located. The apparatus includes reflector panels supported by a frame. To facilitate cleaning or replacement of the reflector panels, means are provided for their easy attachment to the frame of the apparatus. The reflector panels are made from highly polished stainless steel panels which may be glass coated to both increase the reflectivity of the reflector surface and to protect it from corrosion and oxidation.
Claims(2) 1. A free standing fireplace reflector apparatus for reflecting radiant heat energy into the room in which the fireplace is located, comprising:
a rear frame, including a pair of legs, receiving a first reflector panel; and a pair of side frames, pivotally connected to said rear frame so that the apparatus may be adjusted to fit into fireplaces having different side angles, each of said side frames having a leg connected thereto at the end opposite from said pivot; said frames receiving respectively a second and third reflector panel; each of said side frames and said rear frame including: an upper horizontal grooved member and a lower horizontal grooved member receiving and slidably engaging one of said panels in said grooves; and a pair of vertical members connected to their respective upper and lower grooved members at the opposite ends thereof, wherein each of said pairs of vertical members includes one vertical member having a groove therein receiving an end of a reflector panel when said panel is positioned in said frame and one vertical member having a slot therein permitting said panel to pass therethrough so that said panel is properly positioned to slide between the upper and lower grooved members into the vertical grooved member in each of said frames. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein at one end of each of said frames said lower horizontal member extends beyond said vertical member having a slot, for supporting and guiding said panel when said panel is being removed or inserted into said frame.
Description This invention relates to a fireplace reflector apparatus which is placed in the fireplace. It improves the effectiveness of the fire by reflecting heat energy into the room which would otherwise be lost up the chimney. A leght weight frame which can be easily place into and removed from a conventional fireplace is used to hold reflector panels. The panels themselves are supported on a set for tracks within the frame which both provide for easy removal for cleaning or replacement and a considerable degree of protection against buckling in service and can be glass coated for improved oxidation resistance. Fireplace reflectors are well known in the prior art. While they are effective for their intended purpose they tend to present a number of practical difficulties when in use. Thus, prior art systems are typified by a large degree of permanency, that is, part or all of the basic structure is built into or physically attached to the fireplace walls in such a way that to insert a new reflector panel or remove old panels for cleaning or replacement can be quite laborious since it is necessary to perform some or all of the work inside the fireplace. This problem is compounded when the panels themselves are made from uncoated shiny metals such as polished aluminum. When heated, the metallic surfaces tend to become somewhat reactive with the hot products of combustion and to form various oxidation products of lower thermal reflectivity thereon. Furthermore, they often become soft enough to be relatively nonresistant to abrasion. These effects combined with any soot deposits which may occur during the burning cycle all tend to reduce fairly quickly the overall reflection capabilities and therefore the real utility and value of the system. When this occurs panel replacement or cleaning must be done. Accordingly a need exists for an improved fireplace reflector apparatus which is free standing for easy insertion and removal from a fireplace. The apparatus must be able to conform to the contours of a particular fireplace. Further, there exists a need for means which will permit quick and easy insertion and removal of the reflector panels for cleaning or replacement. Additionally, a need exists for a panel structure which is capable of retaining a high degree of thermal reflectivity and abrasion resistance for relatively long periods of time. The reflector apparatus consists of a light weight frame and several reflector panels for facilitating manufacturing, marketing, placement and use thereof. The frame itself is formed with a plurality of tracks, thereby allowing easy insertion or removal of the reflector panels. The panels are made from highly polished stainless steel which is itself highly resistant to oxidation and can be coated with a high melting point glass such as "Pyrex" for still further protection. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a fireplace reflector apparatus having improved reflection capabilities. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a fireplace reflector apparatus having coated reflector panels for increasing the panel's reflectivity and usable life. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a light weight fireplace apparatus which can be easily inserted and removed from a fireplace. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a removable fireplace reflector apparatus which is adjustable so that it may match the contours of a fireplace. It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a fireplace apparatus which includes means for permitting easy insertion and removal of the reflector panels from the apparatus. Further objects of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from examination of the following detailed description of the invention when taken in conjunction with the appended claims and figures. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a conventional fireplace with a fireplace reflector apparatus of the present invention positioned therein. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of te fireplace reflector apparatus of te present invention. FIG. 2a is a perspective view taken along line 2a --2a shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 3 is a view of the panel support system taken along line 3--3 shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 4 is a view of an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a view of a reflector panel utilized in the present invention. FIGS. 1, 2 and 2a show one embodiment of a fireplace reflector apparatus of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows the system in place within a conventional fireplace 10 which has a flat hearth 12 and a grate 14 which holds wood logs 16. The reflector apparatus 18 includes a set of three rectangular frames 30a, 30b and 30c, pivotally connected together, each holding a reflector panel 60. In use the frames 30a and 30c are positioned alongside the ends of the grate 14 and frame 30b is positioned behind the grate. In the preferred embodiment the individual frame sections are connected together by a plurality of hinges 40 so that the angle between sections 30a, 30b and 30c may be adjusted to follow the contours of the fireplace more closely. Turning now to FIG. 2 we see the three sections in more detail. Depending on the fireplace width additional interior frame sections 30b can be used. As shown, the two side sections 30a and 30c of the frame are identical in structure. The center frame section 30b is basically similar to the side frame 30a but will generally be longer than the other two. Other minor differences between frames 30a and 30b will be discussed in detail below. The reflector panels 60 are held in place in the frames 30, between upper grooved horizontal members 32 and lower grooved horizontal members 34. The grooves within these members face the interior of the frame and act as guides and supports for the reflector panels 60 which are inserted between them. Frames 30a and 30c each include a vertical grooved member 36 at the end thereof which are hinged to a frame 30b. The opposite or forward end of frames 30a and 30c include vertical members 38 which have a vertical slot therebetween. In properly positioning a panel 60 into frame 30a or 30c the panel is passed through the slot in the vertical member 38, engaging the grooves in the upper and lower horizontal members 32, until the panel finally engages the groove in the vertical member 36. The rear or middle frame 30b also includes upper and lower horizontal groove members 32 and 34. One end of the frame 30b includes a vertical grooved member 36, while the opposite end includes a slotted vertical member 38. In inserting a reflector panel 60 into frame 30b the panel is passed through the slot in the vertical member 38, engaging the grooves in the upper and lower horizontal members 32, until the panel finally engages the groove in the vertical member 36. The forward vertical members 38 of frames 30a and 30c extend to form legs 44. Of course, the legs 44 may be separate pieces which are joined to the lower horizontal member 34. In a like manner legs 44 form a part of, or are connected to the vertical members 36 and 38 of the rear of middle frame 30b. Frame 30b is pivotally connected to frame 30a and 30c through the use of hinges 40 which are connected to vertical members 36 of frames 30a and 30b at one end of 30b and connected to vertical members 38 and 36 of 30b and 30c at the other end of 30b. The lower horizontal members 34 may be extended beyond the forward vertical members 38, as shown in FIG. 2. These extension members 42, as shown in FIG. 3, act as a guide for the insertion of the panels as they are being inserted into frames 30a, 30b and 30c. A more detailed view of the slot and frame structure along line 3--3 are shown in FIG. 3. The frames may optionally include one or more vertical stiffeners 46 inserted between horizontal members 32 and 34 which can help preserve frame dimensional integrity and provide additional anti-buckling capabilities within the system. This modification is shown in frame 30a in FIG. 2. Insofar as material of construction for the frames 30 are concerned, any thermally stable moderately heat resistant alloy such as martensitic carbon steel (approximately 0.5-0.6% carbon) or wrought iron will do. The individual frame sections can be readily assembled by conventional welding techniques or by the use of mechanical fasteners such as machine screws. The only requirement is te due care be taken to establish and maintain a high degree of alignment of the slots so that the reflector panels 60 can be easily inserted into frame 30 and slid into final position with a minimum of effort. It is recognized that not all fireplaces have vertical backs. Often they have a curved or slanted back which acts to channel the smoke into the fireplace chimney (not shown). In this case a reflector such as is described above will not readily fit into the fireplace unless the back frame 30b is reduced in height so as to fit in underneath the non-vertical portion. When this is done the amount of heat reflected from this area is proportionately reduced. To alleviate this condition a second embodiment of the present has a fourth rectangular frame 30d which is pivotally connected to frame 30b so as to follow the internal curve of a fireplace having such a condition. The general manner of construction will be similar to those of frame 30 except that legs 44 will be omitted. A set of hinged angular supports 66 will be used to establish a proper reflection angle and to support section 30d. In this embodiment the lower members 34 of frames 30a and 30c are modified to provide a series of slots or holes to act as resting points for these supports. One such modification is shown in FIG. 4. The individual panels 60 are relatively simple in design. In the simplest embodiment they consist of rectangular or square sheets of highly polished relatively inexpensive stainless steel alloys such as one containing 18% chromium and 8% nickel and identified by the American Iron and Steel Institute as type 304. Such alloys are easily polished to the high level of reflection needed for most efficient operation. These alloys also provide excellent corrosion resistance in a fireplace environment at a moderate cost. This steel is also easily cleanable and does not react with conventional alkaline detergent solutions. It is also sufficiently scratch resistant so that mildly abrasive cleansers may also be used to remove more stubbornly adhering soot particles or other surface contaminants without significantly impairing the overall reflectivity of the panels. In more severe environments the panels 60 may be further modified by coating to the reflecting surface a layer of heat resistant glass 62 such as Pyrex, as is shown in FIG. 5. This will increase the cost of the panel but it will provide it with an enhanced level of corrosion resistance, and more particularly abrasion resistance. These materials are resistant to heat and to alkaline detergents and other cleaning materials. The basic thickness of steel is not critical since heat reflection occurs from the surface only but should be thick enough so that the sheet will be sufficient strong not to buckle under its own weight or heat induced stress concentrations. For maximum economy and longevity, the panels can be polished and coated on both sides, or optionally, for high temperature strength, one or more stiffeners 64 may be welded to the rear of the sheet. As a practical matter such stiffeners should not be too thick as they will then impede passage of the panel through the channel created by upright members 38. While the invention has now been described and illustrated with reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof those skilled in the art at various modifications, changes, ommissions and substitutions may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. It is intended therefor that the invention be limited only by the scope of the following claims. Patent Citations

06/10/2009 | Phil Thornton
The World Banks largest donor countries yesterday gave it six months to carry out reforms of the way it does business, ahead of a final decision on whether to agree to the first capital increase in 20 years.
The Development Committee of 24 finance ministers who oversee the bank yesterday called for a report on options for recapitalization to be produced by the Spring Meetings in 2010 for a decision.
The bank yesterday proposed a capital increase of between $3 billion and $5 billion for the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, its lending arm for emerging and credit-worthy middle-income countries.
It has also indicated it will call for a replenishment of the resources of the International Development Association, the division that lends to the worlds poorest countries, at a review in November.
However the UK government, the biggest donor to IDA, has made it clear that it might boycott any capital increase unless the bank improves the speed of its aid operations.
Senior US politician Barney Frank has threatened to withhold the USs contribution pending reform of its accountability. France and Italy have also voiced opposition.
Agustin Carstens, the Mexican finance minister and chair of the committee, told Emerging Markets that there was a strong case to recapitalise the World Bank in the face of heavy demand for loans from affected countries.
Some countries recognise that a capital increase would make sense, he said, but see this as a good opportunity to do some reforms of this institution, in a way that makes sure taxpayers money is well spent. The World Bank is more than ready and prepared to raise that reform process provided that it can move on both fronts quickly because time is of the essence.
The depth of the economic crisis across middle- and low-income countries has forced the IBRD to triple its commitments to $33 billion in the year to June while IDAs hit a record high of $14 billion.
The Bank expects to provide a total of $100 billion between 2008 and 2010, which officials say will put the banks capital base under pressure.
Robert Zoellick, the World Banks president, said: We know that it is going to be natural as we work with shareholder countries, that they are going to have aspects that they want to change [in] the nature of the Bank. We are in the world of politics here.
He said that Australia, the Netherlands, Spain, Germany and Greece had lent their support to the Bank, while developing countries had sent a strong message of the need to be prepared for uncertainty in 2010.
So what this meeting does by giving a hard decision point [is] we will be able to move beyond reviews and studies and try to work through these issues.
The proposed increase of $3-5 billion is relatively small because the Bank has historically been able to use its AAA credit rating to raise leveraged loans. The IBRD has already raised the cost of its loans to middle income countries by 0.2% to increase the amount of money it can pass on to IDA.
The committee also backed a proposal by the G20 to shift voting power in the bank by at least 3% to developing countries from rich nations to give them more say in the global institution. The communique said it was important to move towards equitable voting power in the World Bank over time.
The World Bank's East Asia chief, Axel van Trotsenburg, tells Emerging Markets why it is boosting its investment in Myanmar threefold.
Bank debt issuance across Asia is soaring this year, driven by the need to comply with Basel III regulations. Fresh impetus from China is set to send volumes higher still
Pakistan has had an impressive year under new premier Nawaz Sharif. But the government needs to keep up its reforming zeal to get the South Asian state's finances back on track.
Europe is stuck. On both monetary and fiscal policy, the continent is divided. Everyone likes structural reform - except voters. So creativity is called for. How about giving money to the poor?
Rising US interest rates should in theory lead investors to withdraw money from emerging economies so those in Latin America suffering weak growth. But leading debt bankers feel that the party has some time to go.
Women's participation in the labour force still lags men's by 12% even in developed economies. In the MENA region it can be up to 50%. That is a wasted resource - and best practice examples show countries and companies that tackle the problem outperform
Banks know that there is the potential to make money [in Hungary]. The economy is doing better, foreign direct investment is still rolling in and the country has low labour costs and a high level of education
