Dream Journal Pro
"I have no theory about dreams, I do not know how dreams arise. And I am not at all sure that my way of handling dreams even deserves the name of a "method." I share all your prejudices against dream-interpretation as the quintessence of uncertainty and arbitrariness. On the other hand, I know that if we meditate on a dream sufficiently long and thoroughly, if we carry it around with us and turn it over and over, something almost always comes of it. This something is not of course a scientific result to be boasted about or rationalized; but it is an important practical hint which shows...what the unconscious is aiming at."
C.G. Jung, The Aims of Psychotherapy (1931).

Lucid Dream Sleep
Unfortunately, for most of us this phenomenon is out of our reach. We may have had a moment of lucid dreaming once or twice, but as soon as we really understood that we were controlling our dreams, we woke up or the ability simply vanished.
You can learn to master the art of lucid dreaming. With the "Lucid Sleep Dreams Self Hypnosis & Guided Meditation" from Erick Brown, you can actually train your subconscious mind to allow for unlimited dream-time experiences.
Hypnosis or hypnotherapy helps people learn lucid dreaming by accessing the subconscious mind. By tapping in to your unconscious mind (sometimes referred to as neuro-linguistic programming or NLP), you can develop control over your own dreams, master impulse control, improve focus and concentration, increase your motivation and reach your goals.
The new "Lucid Sleep Dreams Self Hypnosis & Guided Meditation" application from Erick Brown is completely customizable, featuring various tools to help you on the road to success. This app features:
Soothing, therapeutic hypnosis/hypnotherapy tracks from world renowned master hypnotist Erick Brown
High quality, state of the art recordings
Optional hypnosis instructions that can be opted out of once you have learned how hypnosis works
Your choice of a short or a long hypnosis induction
Your choice of one of three different soothing, white noise background sounds to enhance your hypnosis, or none at all
Loopable full-length featured hypnosis track
The option to wake you up when the program has finished, or
Use our built-in alarm clock to wake up at a particular time, or
Program the app to allow you to remain asleep after completing hypnosis
Erick Brown and his team have worked hard to ensure that whatever you need to make your self-hypnosis session as effective as possible has been included. Use hypnosis and hypnotherapy to help you lose weight, gain energy, sleep better and increase your confidence and self-esteem so that you feel better, sexier, happier and more motivated!
Dream Watcher - Snore Recorder
Dream Watcher is an APP thought for helping people with sleeping problems.
Just leave your mobile near during sleep, arrange the following services:
- Snoring and night noises monitoring. Dream Watcher monitor your snoring while you are sleeping, so in the morning you can hear and be aware of many problems that arise during sleep. The application will present the different samples captured at night, ordered by the number of snores, so you can listen to your snoring quickly.
- Relaxing music schedule. You can schedule a time during which the mobile will play soothing music to sleep peacefully. You can select your prefered music style (classic, meditation, whales songs, water sounds), the music will down volume slowly as you go falling asleep. Once playback is finished, the phone will automatically switch to monitor sounds.
- Double alarm function. To set an alarm before another, the first will be activated with classical music and a very low volume, and anger gradually turning up the volume. The second alarm will sound loud, classic clock, in case the first alarm failed in waking you up. This function is specially designed for you to control your sleep cycles and wakes up with increased activity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep
- Important samples classification. When you locate a sample you want to keep, whether to show it to your doctor or for any other reason, the sample player allows you to mark it as important. So the sample will not be removed by the autoclean function. This service is especially designed for you to control your sleep cycles and wakes up with increased activity.
- Autoclean. For the application not to occupy more and more space, has scheduled a module which will delete all files that have not been marked as important and have more than a certain time (default 7 days)
I hope this program will be at least as useful as I have been to me.
Best regards,

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino is confident he and his gang will be back on MTV for Season 2 of his hit reality show "Jersey Shore."
On Monday, after a host of reports surfaced that MTV was considering replacing The Situation's gang if they didn't agree to the network's Season 2 contract offers, Mike spoke with Billy Bush for Access Hollywood and radio's "The Billy Bush Show" to set the record straight – "Truth or Dare" style.
Billy brought up one report, which suggested that MTV had offered the cast a $10,000 signing bonus and $5,000 per episode for Season 2, a deal that The Situation's crew reportedly rejected. But Mike said that rumor wasn't true.
"I gotta say false," Mike told Billy. "Everybody has their own way of doing things and I can only really speak for myself and know that we are making a Season 2 happen.
"The numbers that were offered… I really can't speak about numbers," Mike continued. "But I believe everything is being worked out this week. I am being a gentleman right now and we are trying not to speak about numbers."
Billy also asked The Situation about reports that the cast is negotiating deals similar to how the cast of "Friends" approached their contracts – where each cast member will paid the same for each episode.
"I would have to say that would be true because me being one of the leaders of the group, most of the cast will call me up and they will say, 'Mike, is everything OK?' and usually I will give the heads up," Mike explained. "We are a big family and we really are close and friends in real life. I think that is what makes the show so good.
"As it comes to negotiating, we know that there will be a Season 2 and we hope MTV will have us back and I am pretty sure that is going to happen," he added.
When it comes to the rumor that MTV wants the "Jersey Shore" Season 2 deals signed by the end of business day on Monday or the cast will reportedly be replaced, Mike told Billy that report isn't correct.
"I would have to say that is false," he said. "I believe that the cast we have right now is irreplaceable and once you find that magic, it is hard to replace."
When Billy asked if The Situation thought that the cast would stick together during negotiations, Mike was confident the group would stay united.
"Yeah, as far as I know," he said. "I speak with everybody. I don't know if I want to go as far as to say I speak FOR everybody," Mike explained. "Me, Pauly and Snooks, we are very tight. We speak everyday and we make sure that we stick together and hopefully Season 2, if MTV wants it, we are going to make it happen."
And The Situation revealed there could be a spin off in the works for one of his castmates, though he remained tight lipped on who could be getting their own show.
Contract negotiations aside, there is one thing that is making the The Situation very happy in his real life — the abundance of female fans.
Mike told Billy that he has to wear a hat and sunglasses everywhere he goes because the fairer sex go crazy when they see him.
"Women are asking me to sign them," he revealed. "They are screaming, they are crying. This is something I don't think has happened in a very long time."

Do you dress for the temperature at the start of the race, or the end of the race? On Saturday the temperature will be about 37 when we show up to check in for the HM and get shuttled to the start line. It may be in the low 60's by the end of the race. Forecast is for clouds and possible showers. So, long sleeves or short? gloves or not? warm hat or visor?
depends on how long the race is. If it is a long race I'll wear some layers that I can toss off during the race. If it is a short race like a 5k I'll usually just suck it up and wear what I plan on finishing in.
40+ year old PR's
1 mile 4:41 5k 16:14 5 mile 26:59 Half Marathon 1:16:20
How long are you expecting to take to finish the race? If it's around 2 hours and a morning start then it's more than likely won't be anywhere near the low 60's by the time you finish (especially with clouds and possible rain). You could be talking about a minimal temperature rise.
At 37 a warm hat would be way too much for me for a 1/2. I would go long sleeve shirt with shorts. I recently ran a 1/2 where it was upper 40's at the start and I saw everything from long pants/long shirt to a few guys with no shirt.
Do you typically run hot or cold? My hands get cold easily so I wear gloves a lot more than other folks. And I've seen a guideline that states to dress as if it's 10 - 15 degrees warmer than it is because you will heat up while running. You could also get some "throw-away" cloths to wear pre-race and to the starting line and chuck right before you start. See that a lot (and done it) at cooler start marathons.
I did a similar race back in November. Point-to-point bussed, to the start, ~40 at the start mid 50's at the finish.
I wore a short sleeve shirt with shorts over compressions tights for the race with a discardable sweatshirt over the top so I wouldn't freeze waiting for the gun.
So I guess my recommendation would be to dress for the race end temp, and wear a trashbag or old sweats over it before hand.

I'd probably wear a lightweight long sleeve shirt with thumbholes, so I can tuck my fingers in more easily (no gloves), and an earband. The earband I can push down around my neck if it gets over 50, and the sleeves i can push up to my elbows.

For me that sounds like throw-away clothes to wear until start, maybe augmented w/ a trash bag poncho; probably gloves, maybe arm warmers to run with.
Last time I wore throw-away clothes they were still there, at start, after I finished.
Is the start area remote? Could someone take or meet you there? Then you can wear stuff to stay warm up to start and cut worries in half.
A 16 y/o XC Runner stuck in a 51 y/o body.
For a half in the upper 30's, I'd wear light gloves for sure, a singlet and armwarmers. I usually run hot though, and anything over 55 I'm not wearing a shirt. Armwarmers are great bc if you get way too hot they're easy to carry.

Next up: Carmel Marathon, Grandma's Marathon
I ran a (trail) half-marathon this fall that was 37 and sunny at the start. I wore short sleeves and arm sleeves, compression shorts & compression socks, and a light-weight hat. I kept everything on the whole time. If it were raining, I would probably wear the same with a throw-away sweater or sweatshirt on top for the first couple miles. A trash-bag poncho would be a good idea if you will be standing around at the start for any length of time in the rain.

Subject: Dr Claims Cloned Baby Near Birth
A controversial Italian fertility specialist said Tuesday that he expects the first-ever cloned human being to be born in January. Dr. Severino Antinoris latest claim, made at a news conference in Rome, sparked a new round of controversy and skepticism. In the past, Antinori has made similar claims of pregnancies in his hush-hush human cloning program. Tuesdays claim, however, was the first to hint that a cloned fetus appeared to be viable and was nearing birth.
Its the 33rd week, said Antinori, who runs a fertility clinic in Rome. I expect the birth for the first week of January. Antinori said he could not give any more details about the procedure other than to say the embryo was in a good condition.

I'm currently halfway through my first algorithm and data structures class. Unfortunately, my teacher is not very good, and the online book we use is incredibly vague in its descriptions (http://people.cs.vt.edu/~shaffer/Book/) I've manage to maintain an A thus far, mostly due to luck and common sense, but it's starting to get a lot harder now that we are dealing with sorts, searches, and more advanced data structures like graphs.
I was wondering if there are any online resources that would help me learn this subject better that you guys would recommend. I understand the major importance of knowing this topic well, especially when writing efficient code and also when being interviewed for a job, so I'm open to any suggestions that will help me learn and understand algorithms and data structures better. Thanks.

Steven Meisel has focused his star-making lens on Kamila Filipcikova, shooting her for a second consecutive Italian Vogue cover. This time she has the spotlight all to herself (in February, she shared with Agnete Hegelund). The photographs were just released and are pretty stunning … a real shocker for Italian Vogue, we know. On the cover Kamila wears Dolce & Gabbana and totally owns that creepy, lifeless look high fashion seems to go nuts for. And inside, it's glam overload complete with pearls, long gloves, and Nina Ricci strapless gowns. But then, what else would you expect from Giambattista Valli's latest opener? —Kendall Herbst

Newbie, need insight into ferns
I am looking to incorporate ferns into my landscaping in the spring. I have a few questions. Are there ferns I can start from spores indoors during the winter or should I just buy some in the Spring? What ferns will do well in a non-sandy clay and dirt soil? I've seen some really attractive lilac coloured ferns in Plant Delights cataloge that say they are zone 6 (Is that true). I am looking for ferns that will do well in full sun and ones that will do well with virtually no direct sun (my house faces north and I have a giant maple tree so the front landscaping gets little to no direct sun. I would appreciate any and all suggestions.
Why don't you begin with finding out what kind of native ferns you have in your area. And then research their habitat of occurrence to see just what ones would be good for your locations.
Below is a link that lists the ferns that you might enjoy.
For full sun the Osmunda might be good but require an acidic and boggy situation-something that is easily accomplished.
Here is a link that might be useful: Listing of Michigan plants used as roadside plants
Growing ferns from spores is a rather lengthy process, unlike seed plants. Check the process outlined on the link below.
If you want to plant them in the garden next spring, I would suggest checking your local box stores or you may want to place an order online. There are several nurseries that offer a wide selection of hardy ferns, such as Bigdipperfarm.com, that offers about 125 selections, most of which would be hardy for you. Fancyfronds.com, owned by Judith Jones and Foliagegardens.com owned by Sue Olsen, both recognized experts in their field.
I have purchased plants from Big Dipper Farm and Fancy Fronds and have been well satisfied with their quality and prices. I have not had experience with the nursery you mentioned, their plant prices/S&H costs have always sent me searching for alternative sources.

background: i'm doing some Oracle plsql refactoring; The first think that i want to accomplish is to have unit test for the principal components.
For this i'm using ruby with the gem plsq-spec https://github.com/rsim/ruby-plsql-spec
In order to execute the tests several times, i'm using Oracle Savepoints after open the database conection, and doing a rollback to the savepoint before close the connection
Problem: Some test can't be executed more than one time, because some procedures had internal commits.
What can i do in Oracle in order to preserve the savepoint if internal commit/rollback occurs?
With this information in the note apparently what I want is impossible http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/savepoint_statement.htm
A simple rollback or commit erases all savepoints. When you roll back to a savepoint, any savepoints marked after that savepoint are erased. The savepoint to which you roll back remains.
so, the only solutions are?:
- modify the procedures
- erase all data before execute the tests?

best time to plant?
I'm planning a fairly large new shade bed, and have spent the hot Georgia summer preparing the soil, which here means just trucking in load after load of compost, aged manure and topsoil and building on top of our red clay.
I have several lovely little potted hellebores (gifts from fellow gardeners) that I've carefully nurtured all summer, and I was wondering when would be the best time to plant them in the new bed?
Also, what would the ideal amount of light/shade for them to really thrive? Is there a particular exposure they would prefer?
Thanks for any advice, I've always wanted hellebores and I'd like to give these little ones the best chance to really thrive.
Why don't you wait until your temperatures begin to cool a little, install your plants a little closer to Fall. Hellebores initiate a burst of root growth in Fall, one optimum time to plant is immediately prior to this spurt of root development, allowing your plants to establish before cold weather sets in.
While tolerant of shade, hellebores are not dependent on shade and too dark of conditions will lead to slower growth, less flowering. Morning sun, or dappled sun are ideal...I'm sure in your climate you want to protect from hot afternoon sun - in my own (maritime, cool summers) I can grow in full sun.

SCRIM Dec. 8,- 19 70 .9; THOMAS 3,545,056
2 Sheets-Sheet 2 ma April 29, 1968 FIG. 2'
United States Patent US. Cl. 161-57 7 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An absorbent flexible laminated sheet material in which a single ply of creped high stretch wet strengthened cellulosic wadding is carried on each side of an open mesh scrim and is secured in the composite only by adhesive on the threads of the scrim. The wadding is high stretch due to the high degree of retained crepe and therefore imparts high weight per unit area in the finished product. In a preferred modification the windows of the scrim incorporate putf zones of cellulosic wadding superimposed on the high stretch crepe structure to provide for improved characteristics particularly as to liquid absorption, dry and wet bulk, and structure toughness. In another preferred modification pin embossments provide for further improved wet and dry bulk, oil absorbency characteristics and particularly flexibility as well as providing a more roughened surface on one side of the sheet.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the invention The invention relates to improvements in laminated sheet material particularly for use as wipes and characterized by dimensional stability overall while yet having an improved or higher degree of stretchability in localized areas to thereby impart to the web toughness, stretch, bulk and body and the like.
The invention with relation to the prior art Scrim materials have previously been laminated with a high degree of elongation in at least one sheet direction,
the utility of the product in the area of heavy duty industrial wipes, car wash-wipes, heavy duty toweling and the like is improved. The high degree of elongation is attained essentially by compressing or creping the wadding in the direction in which it is to elongate and retaining that crepe very largely in the product. This effectively provides a high basis weight sheet on each side of the scrim in the final product. The only adhesive binding the sheet into the product is that carried by the scrim. Consequently, the high basis weight sheet zones within the windows formed by the scrim is free of adhesive. Additionally, the basis weight of the creped sheet is such relative to the adhesive which bonds the scrim fibers to the sheet that no significant quantity of adhesive penetrates the sheet even at such adhesive carrying areas.
For my purposes I employ a sheet which, as it exists in the wipe product, has a basis weight of between about 15 and pounds per 2880 square feet and has an elongation or stretch at break in one sheet direction of at least 70% and up to about 150% based on the scrim length to which the sheet is secured; that is, the wadding in the finished product is creped to such extent that the wadding itself would have the capability to stretch out at least 70% more than its actual length in the product. Preferably, this stretch at break is between 100 and 120%; too
high a stretch characteristic leads to poor control in manufacturing and converting operations while too low a stretch limits the ability of the sheet as to both energy and liquid absorption. It is to be further noted that a stretch at break of based on the scrim length or its own crepe length corresponds to a crepe ratio of 2:1 and that such creped product is often characterized as being stretchable to 200% its own creped length.
The material forming the scrim may be any synthetic fiber which is suitably flexible and substantialy retains its strength when wetted by water, oil and the like. Useful scrim materials include nylon, polypropylene and the polyesters. I prefer nylon material as it is readily available at relatively low cost, shrinks in the course of the process to provide in the crepe structure of the single ply sheet material puff zones superposed on the crepe structure and limited in extent by the windows of the scrim. The polyesters, while useful, should be of a greater denier than a nylon scrim to attain comparable strength in the product; similarly, the polypropylenes, while useful, lack the strength imparting characteristics of the nylon for my purpose. In general, the threads of the scrim may be composed of filaments having a denier of about 1.5 to about 15 and the threads most suitably have a denier of about 40 to about 100; with nylon a filament denier of about 3 to 5 is preferred at a thread denier of about 70. The crossed threads should form windows in the scrim of at least about A" on a side; an upper limit appears to be about 1" per side. Too large a window opening de-emphasizes the effect of the threadsof the scrim; too small a window opening increases product stiffness and limits web expansion upon wetting. Windows of about /3" to /2" on a side are preferred for most purposes.
SUMMARY It is, accordingly, a primary object of this invention to provide a low cost cellulosic product of substantial strength and overall dimensional stability which is particularly characterized by a single ply of relatively high basis weight, high stretch wet strengthened creped wad ding secured on opposed sides of a scrim and retained only by the scrim. Such scrim may be retractable to superimpose on wadding within windows of the scrim a puff web zone to further improve product toughness, dry and wet bulk and the like.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention will be more fully understood by reference to the following detailed instruction and accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic illustration of an apparatus arrangement for carrying out the procedure of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a view in plan on an enlarged scale of sheet material in accordance with the invention having one ply of wadding partially removed to illustrate the cooperation between the very open net-like scrim and the cellulosic wadding;
FIG. 3 is a view somewhat idealized and on an enlarged scale illustrating the edge contour of a product such as is illustrated in FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of a portion of the structure of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 5 is a view of a further embodiment of the product of the invention illustrating pin embossments.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The sheet material illustrated in FIG. 2' comprises a scrim designated generally by the numeral 1 and composed of longitudinally extending threads 2 of nylon and transversely extending threads 3 also of nylon. The threads have a denier of about 70 and are composed of filaments of a denier of about 3. The sheet material (FIG. 3) includes a lower creped tissue web 4 and an upper creped tissue web 5, a portion of which upper tissue has been removed in FIG. 2.
The sheet material illustrated in FIG. 2 is conveniently produced on equipment shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the scrim 1 is directed to coating applicators adapted for applying an adhesive composition to the scrim. The adhesive 6 is applied to each side of the scrim by successively positioned roll applicators 7, 8 functioning in known manner, the rotational direction of the applicator rolls being indicated by the arrows. The scrim, wet with adhesive, is directed to guide roll 9 and is there combined with the wadding or crepe tissue webs 4, 5.
The crepe tissue webs are formed in conventional manner, that is, on a conventional paper machine having a Yankee dryer from which each web is creped. Each web is commonly of the same structure and, accordingly herein, the specific description will apply to each of webs 4, 5. The webs are wet strengthened in known manner by the inclusion of about 0.5% based on the dry fiber weight of a conventional commercially available wet strength agent, a polyamide-polyamine-epichlorohydrin. The tissue of about 12.5 pounds drier basis weight (uncreped, per 2880 sq. ft.) is highly creped on a Yankee dryer in known manner to a crepe ratio of about 2.5 to 1. By this is meant that a given length of the creped sheet as it comes from the creping blade of the dryer may be pulled out to about 250% of its own creped length or, stated somewhat differently, the creped basis weight as it leaves the dryer creping blade is about 31 pounds or 2.5 times greater than the dried basis weight, that is, the uncreped basis weight on the dryer before creping. In general and usual practice, the crepe web off the dryer is commonly pulled out to largely decrease its stretchability; in the present instance, however, effort is made to retain the crepe or stretch characteristic in the final product through the procedure now described; nevertheless, some small amount of stretchability is usually lost in handling operations, including rerolling and the like.
The combination of sheet 4, with the adhesive carrying scrim is effected in the absence of substantial pressure at roll 9. Pressing is avoided to minimize loss of stretch. The composite, that is, the lightly adhered combination of the two creped tissue webs 4, 5 and the scrim 1, is conveniently indicated by the numeral 10 in FIG. 1. This composite is directed over a series of pre-heated rolls designated by the numerals 11, 12, 13 and 14. Minimum tension necessary to passage of the composite over the rolls is applied.
The pre-heat rolls operate at a temperature of about 300-320 F. and serve to provide the adhesive which, in the present instance, is a plastisol, in a plastic condition for calendering as now noted. From the pre-heat rolls the composite 10 passes to calender rolls 15, 16 which exert a suflicient pressure on the composite to serve to bond the scrim to the wadding plies. Roll 16 is heated like the preheat rolls to maintain web temperature during lamination; roll is a calender roll, paper filled or the like. The composite 10 passes to the cooling rolls .17, 18 and 19 and is then directed to a wind-up generally indicated at 20.
I prefer to employ as the adhesive 6 a conventional plastisol and the equipment arrangement of FIG. 1 contemplates such adhesive. In the specific application the plastisol used consisted of 100 parts of polyvinyl chloride dispersed in 60 parts by weight of diisodecyl phthalate. The adhesive viscosity, Brookfield, measured with a No. 4 spindle at 20 r.p.m., was about 500 centipoises; a small clearance, about 0.004", existed between the applicator rolls retaining the plastisol, and it was applied as a wet film. This film was completely set and retained the wadding plies to the scrim as the composite 10 passed over the cooling rolls. The wadding plies 4, 5 were free of adhesive other than at the lines of contact with the scrim.
The creped wadding plies, as noted, tend to lose some stretchability in processing and in the product, as illustrated in FIG. 2, each had a basis weight due to the crepe structure of about 25 pounds per 2880 sq. ft.; this corresponded to a drier basis weight (uncreped per 2880 sq. ft.) of about 12.5 pounds. Thus, the crepe retained was at a ratio of about 2:1 and the amount of stretch or extensibility at break based on scrim length in the product or its own crepe length was about The scrim, composed of nylon threads, has about 3 threads per inch in the longitudinal direction and about 2 /2 threads per inch in the transverse direction, thus pro viding quite open windows designated (FIG. 2) by the letter W. I prefer nylon as it provides for toughness in the product and at low denier gives good strength; also, nylon appears to tend to shrink considerably in passage over the pre-heating rolls 11, 12, 13 and 14; however, the nylon is prevented from shrinking immediately by the tension of the draw. After calender lamination and the securing of the nylon to the webs, the nylon, when tension is lowered, shrinks significantly causing the composite to pucker or bulk considerably. This bulking of the web by the snap-back effect is superimposed on the crepe 22 and causes the bulking to be confined to the window areas or zones W. The puff zones designated at 23 are clearly distinct from the crepe lines 22, and the puff zones extend between longitudinally projecting threads 2, and are, in fact, terminated by the threads. More than one puff zone may lie within one window area and, commonly, at least two puff zones lie in adjacent relation within a window (FIG. 2). These puff zones provide for an additional builtin localized elongation characteristic and materially contribute to the toughness, flexibility, dimensional stability and general workability of the sheet material.
As shown in FIG. 3, the sheet material, when viewed edgewise, is composed of corrugations which present a somewhat irregular configuration to the eye. In both the matter of depth of corrugation and distance between corrugations this provides for a relatively rough surface capable of exerting good cleansing action.
For the purpose of providing a more flexible product having an improved oil absorbent capacity, I prefer to provide the product with pin embossments as shown at 25 in FIG, 5. The pin embossments extend from one side of the sheet material to the other and intersect the crepe structure as well as the puff zones. In the specific embodiment shown in FIG. 5 approximately 8 pin embossments are provided in each window W. Therefore, approximately 8 projections extend from each window area providing a great multiplicity of small protuberances which are effective to exert an improved cleansing action in many instances. The provision of the protuberances, in addition to the rendering of the webs more soft and flexible by the pin embossing action, permits the product of FIG. 5 to be employed in close spaces more suitably than the product of FIG. 2. However, for wiping oil from surfaces, the second and smoother side is preferred as it permits close contact with the oil bearing surface and has indentations which appear to aid the rate of oil pick-up.
As many apparently widely different embodiments of this invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the specific embodiments thereof except as defined in the appended claims.
I claim:
1. An absorbent, flexible, tough laminated wiping sheet material comprising a non-woven open mesh relatively low stretch scrim of crossed threads forming windows in the scrim of at least about A" on a side and up to about 1", and a single ply of a wet strengthened creped wadding web secured on each side of said scrim to said scrim in fixed e g g ment wi h the threads and closing the windows of the scrim from opposite sides of the scrim, said creped wadding webs being otherwise free of the scrim and of each other and having in the creped condition in the laminated wiping sheet material a basis weight of between about and pounds per 2880 square feet and a stretch at break in one direction of at least and up to about 150% based on the length of scrim to which the webs are secured.
2. A laminated wiping sheet material according to claim 1 in which the threads of the scrim are of heat shrinkable material and the creped webs have in the windows a plurality of puff web zones superposed on and extending in the same sheet direction as the crepe, thereby increasing the stretchability of the webs over that con tributed by the crepe, said puff web zones being terminated within the windows by threads of the scrim.
3. A laminated wiping sheet material according to claim 2 in which the threads are composed of filaments having a denier of between about 1.5 to about 15, said threads have a denier of between about 40 to about 100, and the crepe webs have a stretch at break in one web direction of between about and based on the length of scrim to which the webs are secured,
4. A laminated sheet material according to claim 3 in which the sheet material has pin embossments extending therethrough projecting from and roughening one side of the material.
5. A laminated sheet material according to claim 2 in which the sheet material has pin embossments extending therethrough intersecting the puff web zones.

AOL is making a fresh $405 million bet on programmatic video advertising by acquiring Adap.tv.
AOL is making a fresh $405 million bet on programmatic video advertising by acquiring Adap.tv. The deal gives AOL a power punch in online video with large investments aimed at strengthening its role and influence on the consumer and brand side of video.
Adap.tv supported more than 26,000 ad campaigns on 9,500 sites last year. The deal, which is expected to close before the end of the current quarter, makes AOL the "second largest player in video and more importantly the leader in programmatic video," says Tim Armstrong, chief executive, AOL.
"Two trends are prevalent in the video space right now – the movement from linear television to online video and the shift from manual transactions to programmatic media buying. Adap.tv is positioned squarely in front of the huge opportunity these trends are presenting," Armstrong notes in a prepared statement. The acquisition marks the largest deal to date since Armstrong joined the company in 2009.
Adap.tv will run independently but under the umbrella of AOL On Network, the company's connected TV app. The San Mateo, California-based company will join other AOL networks brands like Advertising.com, Be On, ADTECH and Pictela.
"At Adap.tv, we are focused on building the most important business within the most important category in digital advertising," Adap.tv chief executive and founder Amir Ashkenazi says in a prepared statement. "We believe that most TV advertising will soon be traded programmatically on platforms like ours. The combination of AOL and Adap.tv accelerates our vision of efficient and effective TV and video advertising."
AOL and Adap.tv are valuing the acquisition in terms of the ongoing shift from broadcast TV to online video. "When you take this in the context of the $240 billion TV industry and this massive revolution that it's going through, very similar to what we've seen in digital photography and music, then I think it's easier to understand the impact that this deal can make," Ashkenazi says in an interview with Bloomberg West. "This partnership can actually advance the implementation of our dream, of being the platform that really connects TV and video advertising."
Adap.tv says its revenue has more than doubled in each of the last three years. Despite whispers of an initial public offering, the company appears to have avoided a potentially rough ride similar to what its competitors Tremor Video and YuMe have experienced this summer. Adap.tv was founded in November 2006 and raised a total $48.5 million in funding before AOL came knocking with $322 million in cash and $83 million stock.
"AOL is a leader in online video and the combination of AOL and Adap.tv will create the leading video platform in the industry," says Armstrong. "The Adap.tv founders and team are on a mission to make advertising as easy as e-commerce, and the two companies together will aggressively pursue that vision."

So I am in the market for a grain mill. I am getting back into brewing after a long long time off. I want to go all grain and buy in bulk. I have been looking at the barley mill and millars mill. The barley mill is now on sale at beer smith for $50 cheaper than millars. Any reason not to go with the barley? If I had the extra cash, I would also be looking at the monster mill. Thanks
I have a MM-2 and love it. Don't about the Millars or BC, but you will find plenty of advocates for each. There has been some controversy discussed here a while back over Barley Crusher's customer service, but don't know if they have gotten better in that department.
AIH has the Cereal Killer Mill for $99.99 and free shipping... and I love it. I went for what I could afford with good reviews. My efficiency went up when I started milling my own grains. I can adjust the gap, and I hook up a drill to speed my grains through! haha. Maybe that will help. http://www.homebrewing.org/Cereal-Ki...ll_p_2310.html
I had a Barley Crusher (for many years) and it was fine. I bought a Monster Mill II this spring - it is awesome. It costs more....but, worth every penny. That thing crushes some grain.
JSP is what I bought. Very happy
There's a bare bones roller mill on clearance at Austin Homebrew for $60 at the moment. Mine hasn't arrived yet, but it's one cheap option to look at.
It doesn't seem to be perfect from the reviews, but it does seem to work.
I hemmed and hawed about this for a while a few months ago, but since I have a "buy once cry once" attitude about tools and equipment, went with a monster mill, mm2-2.0. It's more mill than I need now (5 gal batches every 2 weeks or so) but if I ever scale up it should be able to handle pretty much anything.

The End is Nigh!
It's almost over! Congratulation to our graduating seniors, and we wish everyone a successful close to the Fall semester! The Library will close over the winter break, and to that end, we wanted to update everyone on the following dates and deadlines:
- Please remove all personal belongings from the library no later than Thursday, December 18th.
- All interlibrary loan books are due back no later than Wednesday, December 17th.
- Marlboro library items are also due back Wednesday, December 17th. However, you are welcome to renew them over break as long as no one else has requested them.
- The library building will begin winter break hours on Thursday, December 18th, at 4:30pm (when the dorms close), which means the building will be locked overnight. A return bin will be located outside the entrance by the librarians' offices for those needing to return library materials.
- Hours for the library building and services over break are M-F, 8:30am – 4:30pm.
The library will be closed from Wednesday, December 24, 2014, through Sunday, January 4, 2015.
Doing research over break? Don't forget that you have access to tens of thousands of journals, books, and more via the library's website. And whether you are near or far, library staff remain available to provide research assistance.
Have a wonderful break!
Rapid Reviews this Thursday!
How can anyone review The Complete Works of Shakespeare in a minute? Come hear Marlboro College student Saskia Giramma try just that at this semester's Rapid Reviews this Thursday, December 11th at 3pm in the Apple Tree lecture room. Saskia will be joined by students Kelly Hickey and Tommy Arsenault along with librarian Rachel Gravel and chemistry professor Todd Smith as they talk about their all-time favorite books, reviewing each in a minute or less.
Even with all of Shakespeare's plays being counted as one book, you can hear about an unprecedented 58 books in 46 minutes when Tommy Arsenault attempts to review the 13 book series by Lemony Snicket, A Series of Unfortunate Events, in one minute. Here are some other books that you'll hear about:
All the books reviewed will be at the event for you to check out at the event.
Milk and homemade chocolate chip cookies, as well as vegan and gluten free goodies, will be served. We hope to see you there!
