Greasy and just too much

It feels really greasy and doesn't sink in at all. Doesn't do anything to my skin, and the smell is a little bit too much

Posted by Reviewer1806747 on Feb 23, 2013
I used to use Burt's Bee products because i really liked the combination of shea butter and beewax. However, their products contain preservative, Phenoxyethanol. Since i needed to apply all over my leggs and arms every day, i really felt the effect on me. I had symptoms of estrogen dominance and was very depressed until i stopped using Burt's Bee body butter. I am so glad I found this one on iherb. The skin on my arms were very dry from the winter in door heat, this cream gives me a shine without the grease. I am sure it's also going to be a good body cream for the summer to product me from the sun. The smell is sugary and sweet, It is very pleasant. It is stated 'Phalate (Phthalate) free fragrance', i just have to give it the trust.

Calculating ProSal based on net versus gross production
First of all, if you are going to pay your associate on ProSal, it's not a base salary plus 22 percent of production bonus on a quarterly basis. Instead, ProSal requires you pay your associate a percentage of his or her production (18 to 25 percent, depending on costs of employment), although it provides a guarantee base of compensation at the end of the year. Thus, with ProSal you pay your associate twice a month (not 26 times a year).
To figure out how the associate should be paid, you take 1/24 of the guaranteed base and pay that amount, less payroll deduction, on the first payroll of the month. For the second and last paycheck of the month, you would take the doctors' production from the previous month, calculate the percentage you're paying and then subtract the amount the associate got paid for the first of the month (the 1/24 of guaranteed base) and pay the balance he or she is due, less payroll deductions.
The second and final check of each month is not a guaranteed amount—it may be significantly more or significantly less than the first check. At the end of the year, if the associate does not make the guaranteed base, you would owe him or her the difference.
In regards to gross versus net, the associate should be paid their percentage on the gross because the cost of the service is already taken into account when determining the initial percentage.

Drug offers better sight for sore eyes
Last summer, Bill Bowlen noticed that his vision had begun to deteriorate. Bowlen, 72, experienced blurring and saw a gray smudge right in the center of his field of vision.
"I got my prescription upgraded and even tried trifocals," said Bowlen, a resident of the town of Crest near El Cajon. "None of it did any good."
Referred to a retina specialist, Bowlen was diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration. The term refers to deterioration in the macula, the part of the retina that's responsible for central vision. Bowlen had the "wet" kind, caused by an abnormal growth of blood vessels that leak into the macula.
Bowlen had just officially joined about 1.7 million people with advanced macular degeneration, the leading cause of severe vision loss in Americans 60 and older, according to the Mayo Clinic.
"The doctor said I was legally blind," he said.
Bowlen spent nearly half a year unsuccessfully seeking relief. He finally got it in a clinical trial of a new drug, called Lucentis. Injected into the eye, Lucentis slows down, stops, or even reverses the vision loss of macular degeneration. It is made by Genentech, the South San Francisco-based biotech giant.
After three shots, Bowlen noticed significant improvement in his eye chart test. In just a few months, Bowlen went from legal blindness to 20:25 vision.
"I far exceeded what he (his doctor) thought it was going to be," Bowlen said of his improvement. "I was one of the lucky ones. It's unbelievable."
Lucentis was approved for sale on June 30.
Cost concerns
However, as with many new drugs, the cost of Lucentis is posing a problem for some patients and doctors. Its wholesale cost is $1,950 per injection. Add to that what the doctor charges to administer it, typically about $200, for a total cost of about $2,200 per injection.
Moreover, Genentech has to cope with competition from - Genentech. Some doctors are prescribing a related drug, Avastin, made by Genentech to treat cancer. This off-label use is legal, but Genentech gets a lot less money per dose because one dose of Avastin can be used for many macular degeneration treatments.
Genentech refers patients who cannot afford their insurance copayments to independent charities which may be able to help cover the copayment costs. In addition, the company offers Lucentis for free to eligible patients who do not have insurance and cannot afford it.
An estimated 81 percent of patients have enough insurance to lower their out-of-pocket cost to just $50 per injection, said Dawn Kalmar, a Genentech spokeswoman.
Genentech isn't blocking the use of Avastin for macular degeneration, Kalmar said. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration doesn't allow companies to advertise drugs for off-label uses. And unlike Avastin, Lucentis is specifically formulated and tested for use in macular degeneration.
But the doctors who administer Lucentis have their own worries. They have to buy the drug out of pocket and hope patients and insurers will repay the upfront costs.
"We're becoming the middleman, and we don't like that," said Dr. Paul Tornambe, who treated Bowlen. Tornambe is a specialist in the disease and chief of staff at Pomerado Hospital.

Opening Theme-
"Haruka Kanata (遥か彼方)" by: Asian Kung-Fu Generation (Japan)
"Rise" by Jeremy Sweet and Ian Nickus (U.S. TV)
The episode starts out with a recap of the ending of the last episode. With Naruto, Saskue, Sakura, and Kabuto going around in circles trying to get to the tower. They realize that they are in illusionary technique, and the enemy starts to attack by surrounding them with a bunch of clones. The enemy tells them that they have fallen into a mouse trap, hearing this Naruto tells him to shut up and lunges at him. Hitting him in the side, Sakura thinks that the clones are easy to defeat but she is wrong. Naruto fist ends up going all the way though the clone and it doesn't disappear like a regular one would. Instead the clone makes another one of itself inside of the one that had been hit. Saskue uses his sharingan to figure out what exactly is going on with the clones, he ends up stopping an attack towards Naruto. But when the enemy attacks him, his body doesn't move and he is saved by Kabuto who ends up getting hit in the arm. Lying on the ground Saskue wonders why he couldn't move, and it seems the curse seal has opened again. Kabuto goes and examines the kunai and realizes that they are real and they are not an illusion. Naruto asks if they are replications with real flesh, since they didn't disappear, or are they really illusion he wants to know which one is the truth. Naruto gets ready to attack again when Saskue tells him to stop, he tells him they are an illusion.
But Sakura says that Kabuto wound is real though. Kabuto tells Sakura that Saskue is right, and that the enemy is hiding somewhere. He figures that they are attacking from somewhere else while matching the illusion ninja movements, to make it seems like they are being attacked. Naruto says that he would find the enemy hiding in the forest who are throwing knives at them, and beat them up himself. Kabuto tells him to wait, since the real sources of the knives are hidden, and that don't know the exact location of the enemy. He goes on to tell them that according to his data, people who are weak with hand to hand combat like to attack from afar. And that the real enemy would not come out until they were unable to move at all. He then tells them the only thing they could do now was dodge their attacks. The enemy wonders how long they would last, since it was going to be a long night. The clones start to throw knives at them, and they dodge all of them. Sakura says there is no end to this, Naruto then thinks it would be a good idea to do the shadow replication technique as well. Kabuto tells him that it is not a good idea to waste his chakra on them. Naruto goes on to tell him that if he keeps attack the clones that the enemy can't attack until they turn back to normal. Naruto starts the attack and the others soon follow since he couldn't do it all by himself. They end up fighting the clones until dawn, they are all exhausted, and the enemy finally decides to stop the illusion attack. They were done crushing their sprits, it was now time to crush their bodies.
One of the ninja's had encounter Saskue earlier and was excited that he would finally get his revenge. Thinking it was over for them, Naruto had a plan up his sleeve. He used his shadow clones, and did a transformation of all four of them to fool the enemy into their own mouse trap. They explain to the enemy how they did it, and they are all shocked that they were tricked. Naruto starts to move but ends up going down to one knee. Saskue tells him he has used up to much chakra, but Naruto comes out of no where hitting all three of the rain ninja's and made them fall on the ground. Naruto tells Saskue that he is not going to let him take all the good parts. Saskue wonders if it is the real Naruto, and he wonders when he got so strong. The enemy and Sakura, and Kabuto can not believe that Naruto can still move. The enemy tells them that time is running out and that they are going to show their real moves. They do a move called Hazy Replications, which ended up making more replications of all three. Naruto then says that there is only one real one, and he would beat them all up until he finds it, Saskue tells him it is a waste of time.
Naruto yells back at him not to interfere, and starts to run toward the replications. Saskue notices that he has pain that starts to shoot down his neck every time he tries to use his sharingan, he thinks that he might have used up to much chakra. Naruto keeps finding out that all of them were fake ones, Sakura wonders if it is another illusionary technique. Saskue decides to use the last bit of his chakra and use his sharingan to look at all the replications. Once he does it, he goes down in pain from the cursed seal, which Sakura notices is spreading again. She tells him not to use it anymore, and Naruto turns around to look at what was going on, when one of the clones lunges at him. Kabuto comes to his rescue, but ends up getting cut in the leg, Naruto starts to get fired up again, until Saskue yells at him. He tells him that no matter how hard he tires the real one wasn't in those replications. Naruto realizes that he couldn't use his shadow replication any more. The rain ninja see that they are all at their limits and decides to attack, and just as the attack starts Saskue sees the real truth of their attack. That the real enemies where underground and they were going to attack beneath the replications. Kabuto ends up getting hit again knocking his glasses off of his face. The enemy comes up behind him and realizes one of his eyes are turning red, with the distraction Naruto ends up kicking all three of them to the ground ending their attack. Kabuto tells Naruto thank you for saving his life, and Sakura tells him good job as well. Naruto starts to look though the enemy's things, while Kabuto notices the bruise on Saskue's neck, Saskue tells him it is nothing. Naruto finally finds what he is looking for the heavenly scroll, the one that they needed. Saskue seem to have a bad feeling about Kabuto that he is not who he says he is.
They end up making it to the tower, and Kabuto ends up back with his team as well. They end up splitting up and going into two different doors. On Kabuto side it seems that some one was waiting for him. While he was with Naruto and them he was gathering data for Orochimaru. Orochimaru asks Kabuto what he thinks of him as a spy for the hidden village of sound. Kabuto tell him that he doesn't need to tell him anything since he is the one that will determine everything. Orochimaru tells him he likes his cunningness and good job and he disappears. Naruto realizes that nobody is around in the room, and wonders what they are suppose to do now. Saskue tells Sakura to let him go since he could walk the inner part of her gets really upset about it. Looking around the room Sakura notices a billboard on the wall. Sakura reads it, and notices that one of the letters is missing and that it must have to do with the scrolls. She thinks it is telling them to open both of the scrolls. So Naruto and Sakura start to open them.

Backyard Help
I have a fairly large backyard in Kansas City that needs some help. I am just planning on doing a little at time, and was thinking about adding a little peninsula on the East side about half way down the yard. It gets some sun now, but I am planning on trimming the Walnut tree in the middle of the yard which should allow for quite a bit of sun.
I bought about 10 Home Run roses on clearance and was hoping I could use those as an informally hedge for the peninsula. Will this look any good at all? Also, I need to move a mock orange that is in deep shade, and I was thinking of trying to incorporate it somehow. Maybe in the middle of the roses? Is this crazy talk?
Thanks for any input or suggestions.
Your yard is gorgeous.
One thing about planting near mature trees--there is likely quite a root system in place. If you plant something like roses in such a situation they are probably going to struggle and not do very well, because they cannot possibly compete with the root system of a mature tree. If you were to dig out some of the tree roots (not good for the tree!!) the tree roots are just going to grow back.
It sounds like you want some color? What is it you really want or need from your back yard?
You are lucky to have so much space to work with. I envision an open lawn area near the house, then garden paths leading to other garden rooms. Shade is nice. Once it is gone, it is not easy to get back, so think carefully before you make that decision. Look at pictures to get an idea of what you like, then get started with one small project. As you start doing one area you get better idea of what you like and what would look nice next to it. I see different areas. Sunny areas for roses, flowers, shady paths, vegetable garden, hidden sitting area, woodland area. Your imagination is the limit, if you allow yourself time over several years to make this your paradise.
Thanks so much for the complements and quick replies.
I agree, open yard close to the house with possibly more garden areas in the back. The current vegetable garden is behind the shed (NW corner), and the railroad tie structure is a compost pile.
I guess the real problem is I donâÂÂt really know exactly what I want. I like to fiddle around in the yard when I can, but with two young kids, and the general maintenance of almost an acre yard, time goes fast. So maybe somewhat low maintenance landscaping would be best right now.
That hackberry tree (I think) where I have outlined the peninsula is on its last limb, so maybe I should just take it out. I guess I was trying to create some separation between the front and back part of the lawn. Create an intriguing shape to help draw the eye back. I really donâÂÂt know.
Thanks so much for reading.
Establish the larger objectives and goals: privacy, view, features desired, etc. Analyze what the yard is presently offering in order to reconcile it with the goals. It is telling you to hide certain things within the view. It might be telling you that there is need for unification of some of the existing elements. Seems like there is a "thing" here ... there ... over farther ... and these things don't seem to relate with each other in a unified fashion. A professional would be working these ideas out on a plan and you should, too. The overall goal is to develop your yard into a large, single piece of 3-dimensional art. You can get help here, but you'll need to explore relationships in the plan view. I'm scratching out some vague suggestions about a possible direction you can take, in case it helps you get started.

Klinefelter's syndrome (KS) is a condition that occurs in men who have an extra X chromosome. The syndrome can affect different stages of physical, language, and social development.
The most common symptom is infertility. Boys may be taller than other boys their age, with more fat around the belly. After puberty, KS boys may have
KS males may have learning or language problems. They may be quiet and shy and have trouble fitting in.
A genetic test can diagnose KS. There is no cure, but treatments are available. It is important to start treatment as early as possible. With treatment, most boys grow up to have normal lives.
Treatments include testosterone replacement therapy and breast reduction surgery. If needed, physical, speech, language, and occupational therapy may also help.

Freedom is not free. The best of us always leave too soon.
Our family shoots S.A.S.S matches. We have a win 92, a cimmeron 73, an ASM 92, Rossi 92 and a couple of marlins. The marlins are heavy duty rock solid. the 92's are all good solid guns. The '73 is smooth as silk, but not as designed for heavy loads. There are no best ones, just all a little different. Look around and find what feels best then go have fun!
I did a bad, bad thing. Raleigh had a nice little gun show today. i have always wanted a lever action, but wasn't sure which one to buy. So I compromised.
Damn, sorry for the double post. So the compromise was the $5 raffle ticket for the 356 Winchester. And I grabbed a new Marlin 336 30-30 for $399. I could not resist that deal. Will post pics when I have a chance.
I'm not a "sniper" or expert marksman, I don't have a chronograph nor can I tell you the ballistics or necessarily how many grains of powder that I shoot.
Here's what I can tell you, I've had my Rossi 92 in .357 for about a year and it's the most fun rifle I shoot (and I have a couple of different options available). I normally plink with .38 special rounds and have no trouble hitting what I aim at, the rifle is more accurate than I am.
So far it has ran everything I've fed it without exception. It's not tacticool and it's not a sniper rifle, but I wouldn't hesitate to grab it for anything from self/home defense to hunting to having a blast at the range! Like many of us, I have heard the horror stories over the years about Rossi quality, but the more I talk to people who have actually owned them the more I realize Rossi is not much different than any other manufacturer.
Just my $.02...
i had a rossi ranch hand. i really liked it. but in the end, i did decide to get rid of it to get something i wanted a bit more. and i do miss it a bit. and i agree they are good guns.....my only real beef with them is they are not american made.
the quality of my rossi was just OK.....passable. the function is perfectly fine. i did have to drop some $ to get my sights on target (they were 8-10" high from factory, had to get aftermarket sights to get it on target). the safety was cheap and terrible, probably the worst part. function wise, it went bang as it should....and i really disliked that the manual stated NOT to disassemble for cleaning ....i like to give my guns a good cleanin. a lever should be easy as pie to break down and clean (as my henry and marlin are )
i've handled a rossi 357 rifle and they are light and handy. i think a good rifle at the right price. sometimes i wish i had one simply because my my two levers are so pretty (imo) that i tend to really baby them too much.
it kind of pisses me off honestly. more american manufacturers need to put moderate priced, good quality levers out there (coach guns too). imo, there is a real market for it, and with marlin almost out of the game....the time would be now.
pic of my marlin and departed ranch hand. it stung a bit to get rid of the ranch hand (especially after i spent money and tie to get it shooting like a champ ). but in the game of firearms, sacrifices must be made now and then .
That's a nice lookin' Marlin^^^

Acoustical tiles having incorporated therein microbicidal amounts of a microbicide are effective in inhibiting growth of micro-organisms (including viruses) in the tile pores and preventing spread of disease, cross-infections, and food contamination in facilities employing acoustical tiles.
1. A porous acoustical tile having an outer surface and an interior body including pores, said porous acoustical tile of sufficient strength for installation containing an amount of a microbicide sufficient to inhibit growth of a micro-organism or virus on the outer surface and the interior body pores thereof, the tile being composed of granular base material and 5 to 20% (by volume of the tile composition) binder material, the grains of base material being coated with a layer of the binder material, the coated grains defining said interior body pores and said microbicide being incorporated within said layer of binder material and exposed at said interior body pores and outer tile surface.
2. A tile according to claim 1 wherein said microbicide is a particulate which protrudes from the binder layer within the pores of the tile.
3. A tile according to claim 2 wherein the size of the particulate is from 5 to 20 μm.
4. A tile according to claim 2 wherein the major proportion of the particulate microbicide is disposed on said pore surfaces and outer surfaces.
5. A tile according to claim 2 wherein the tile has a thickness in the range 15 mm to 26 mm and contain 1/4 to 4 oz/ft2 of particulate microbicide.
6. A tile according to claim 2 wherein the microbicide is zinc, copper, cadmium, or silver, or a microbicidal oxide, sulphide or salt thereof.
7. A tile according to claim 5 wherein the microbicide is zinc, zinc oxide, or zinc sulphide.
8. A tile according to claim 2 wherein said base material comprises perlite.
9. A tile according to claim 8 wherein said binder comprises sodium silicate.
10. A tile according to claim 1 wherein the tile composition comprises 80 to 90% by volume perlite, 5 to 15% by volume sodium silicate and 3-6% by volume alumina silica.
This application is a continuation, of application Ser. No. 07/600,587, filed Oct. 16, 1990, now abandoned.
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to microbicidal porous tiles of the type commonly referred to as "acoustical tiles". In particular, the invention relates to acoustical tiles having incorporated therein a fungicide, bactericide, anti-viral agent, or other microbicidal agent to inhibit the growth of micro-organisms or viruses on the surface of the tiles, and most particularly within the pores of the tiles.
Acoustical tiles are used in many applications, most usually as ceiling materials. In applications where the environment is conducive to the growth of micro-organisms (herein including viruses), the pores of the tiles become a good breeding ground for such micro-organisms, and cannot be effectively cleaned. This is particularly dangerous in sensitive environments which are desirably highly sterile, especially medical facilities such as hospitals, nursing homes and clinics, as well as laboratories, food processing facilities, kitchens, and food storage areas. While flat surfaces in these facilities are readily sterilized by wiping with appropriate sterilizing agents, acoustical tiles cannot be cleaned in this fashion, owing to their porous structure and irregular surfaces; further, the presence of micro-organisms is difficult to detect. As a result, the tiles become a source of infection; several outbreaks of disease including cross-infections attributed to growth of micro-organisms in acoustical tiles have been reported in the literature, and deaths have occurred, most notably in hospital recovery rooms.
It is accordingly desirable to provide an acoustical tile which inhibits growth of micro-organisms.
2. Discussion of Related Art
The use of microbicidal building materials is known in the art; however, these materials, such as gypsum wall-board, rockwool, fiberglass fibers and their binders, as well as roofing tiles, are characterized by flat, smooth surfaces, and are typically rendered resistant to micro-organism growth by a surface coating of an appropriate bacteriostat or other microbicide, as described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,527,596. Such a treatment is ineffective for inhibiting micro-organism growth on acoustical tiles, as a surface application of microbicide does not effectively penetrate into the tortuous porous structures. Additionally, it is known to incorporate microbicides into flat-surfaced building materials, as discussed, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,079,213; 3,998,944; and 3,494,727. Again, however, these applications do not present the problem of effective distribution of microbicide on the interior surface of tortuous pores, without excessive, and possibly toxic, tile concentrations of microbicide.
FIG. 1 illustrates in cross section a perlite particle 10 surrounded by a binder 12 of sodium silicate and alumina silicate and microbicidal particles 14.
FIG. 2 illustrates in cross section an acoustical tile composition according to the invention, wherein microbicidal particles 14 are embedded in a perlite-based composition 10 bound with sodium silicate and an alumina silicate binder 12.
The invention comprises a microbicidal acoustical tile, and a method for the preparation of microbicidal acoustical tiles having an effective interior pore surface content of microbicide.
The microbicidal acoustical tiles of the invention comprise any conventional acoustical tile, preferably a fire-rated acoustical tile, i.e., one that meets local building code requirements for fire-retardancy, especially for use in schools, hospitals, and other large commercial installations such as office complexes. These installations require that acoustical tiles used in construction be fire-rated along guidelines laid down by the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM, Philadelphia, Pa.) to suit their intended use, usually Class A or zero smoke, zero flame spread indicating the fire hazard rating, typically a 1 to 2 hour fire rating. Microbicidal treatment according to the invention is especially suited to such tiles. Particularly suitable acoustical tiles for incorporation of microbicide are those based on conventional acoustical tile materials, for example, rockwool, fiberglass, or mineral particles such as clay, perlite or vermiculite bound with a conventional binder such as a water-repellent adhesive, a synthetic resin such as a silicone or epoxy resin, sodium silicate, or a natural resin or polymer such as lignin or corn starch; the binder is preferably fire-resistant. Water-soluble or water-suspensible binders such as sodium silicate are typically incorporated as an aqueous solution or suspension thereof, in known manner. Other conventional additives may be included in the composition such as fire-retardants, deodorizers, or color pigments such as iron oxide, copper oxide, or lithium oxide. In general, the base material will comprise from about 80 to 90% by volume of the composition, and the binder from about 5 to 20%, depending on the volume percentage of any additives present. The primary requirement is that the product acoustical tiles have a porosity adequate for its acoustical function as known in the art; in general, suitable tile porosity is determined by the acoustical characteristics required or desired, while simultaneously keeping the tile strong enough for shipping and installation. Exemplary acoustical tile compositions are disclosed for example in DE 1,671,131 to Janssen, 4 Nov., 1971, incorporated herein by reference. A preferred acoustical tile composition according to the invention comprises particles of perlite coated with a suitable clay such as alumina silica and bound with sodium silicate, in amounts of from about 80 to 90% by volume perlite, from about 5 to 15% by volume sodium silicate, and from about 3 to 6% by volume alumina silica; most preferably, in amounts of about 85% by volume perlite, about 10% sodium silicate, and from about 4 to 5% by volume alumina silica or other suitable clay, as exemplified for example by the acoustical tiles marketed by Global Perlite Products, S.A., Belgium.
The microbicidal material to be incorporated in the acoustical tile composition comprises any known microbicide, preferably in particulate form. Exemplary microbicides for incorporation include particles of metals having microbicidal properties such as zinc, copper, cadmium, or silver; or oxides, sulfides, or salts thereof, especially zinc, zinc oxide, or zinc sulfide. Particle sizes of from about 1 to 50 microns, particularly from about 5 to 20 microns, depending on the particular base tile composition and the microbicide selected are broadly suitable in the acoustical tile composition of the invention.
The microbicidal acoustical tiles are produced by mixing together the base material, binder, and any additives desired to obtain a substantially uniform mixture; as noted above, binders such as sodium silicate are usually added as aqueous solutions or suspensions thereof. The tiles are then molded and dried in a conventional manner, usually as square foot tiles of about 1 inch thickness. Standard mixing equipment such as double-cone mixers is conveniently employed.
The microbicidal particles are conveniently incorporated at any stage of this mixing process, for example, as a pre-mix before or during the mixing of the base tile composition ingredients, or, particularly suitably as an after-mix, i.e., after the base tile composition ingredients are mixed. Depending upon the mixing equipment, the volume of material, and other factors, this may take, for example about 12 minutes for a standard batch. While both in the pre-mix and after-mix methods, a good distribution of microbicidal particles are obtained, in the after-mix method, more particles have been found to be retained on the surface of the binder and exposed in the tile pores, which is particularly advantageous for tile biocidal activity. Alternately, solubilized microbicide, such as zinc oxide in or other microbicidal particles such as those noted above which are soluble or solubilizable in aqueous solution with solubilizing aids to provide a sprayable solution or suspension can be sprayed onto the surfaces and into the pores of the molded tiles prior to or after drying the tiles. Particulate microbicide material is preferably incorporated at the rate of from about 1/4 to 4 oz. per square foot of molded tile; depending upon factors such as the base tile material used, the microbicide, and the thickness or porosity of the tile, more or less microbicide may be used. For molded tiles (1'�1') having an average thickness of about 22.5 mm and a perlite base as set forth in the following examples, from about 1/4 to 4 oz. particulate zinc oxide, preferably about 1 oz. of zinc oxide, gives an effective biocidal effect throughout the tile. In general, from about 1/4 to 4 oz. of effective microbicide, usually from about 1/2 to 2 oz., per square foot of formed tile solids (formed base acoustical tile material having a thickness of from about 15 mm to about 26 mm), will be suitable for use according to the present invention, whether the microbicide is in particulate or liquid form. Typically, the larger the particles, the less the amount of microbicide and binder used.
In spraying, it is important to use as little as possible of the liquid composition. If too little of the microbicide is used, the anti-microbial or anti-viral action tends to be ineffective. If, on the other hand, too much microbicide is used, the tiles have a tendency to become too heavy, with the possibility of adversely affecting tile porosity and acoustical values.
Materials and Methods
The following base tile composition was used in each of the following Examples:
______________________________________Ingredient Volume percent______________________________________Perlite: 84% (approx.) (Manville Corp.), (Grade Pa 310)Sodium silicate: 10% (approx.) (about 37.5% solids, about 40 to 41.5 Baume). (Thamond Alkali Corp.)Alumina silica: 4-5% (approx.) (commercial grade)______________________________________
The base tile composition was combined as described in the following Examples with commercial grade pure particulate zinc oxide (Rexinal, N.Y., Zolder, Belgium) as microbicide having a particle size between about 5 to 20 microns.
A double-cone mixer (Oblicone, Baker-Perkins Chemical Machinery, Ltd., Stoke-on-Trent, England) which tumbles the ingredients was used for mixing.
In this method, perlite (14 oz.) was substantially uniformly mixed with from 2 to 5 ozs. alumina silica and 1 oz. of particles of ZnO for about 10 minutes in the double-cone mixer, followed by addition of the liquid sodium silicate binder (19 oz., 37-1/2 oz. solids) with thorough mixing for about 2 additional minutes. After the ingredients were mixed as described, the tiles were pressed and cured to a square of 1 ft. per side, of an average thickness of about 22.5 mm (7/8"). A good proportion of ZnO protruded from the binder, with an excellent antimicrobial effect on the surface of the tiles and in the pores thereof. Example II: Premix
The above Example was repeated, proportionately varying the volume of the ingredients to produce tiles of different thicknesses. The tiles were studied microscopically, with the results schematically represented in the drawing (600�magnification). Similar results were obtained in each run.
The procedure of Example I was followed, with the exception that the perlite, alumina silicate, and binder were first substantially uniformly mixed, the ZnO particles were then added, and aftermixed for about 3 to 4 minutes to give a substantially uniform mix. Similar results were obtained, but substantially improved microbicidal effects were observed, attributed to the fact that substantially more ZnO particles extended from the binder layer.
The procedure of Example III was followed, with the exception that the volume of the ingredients was again proportionately varied. Similar results were obtained.
The instant invention has been shown and described herein in what it is considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiment. It is recognized, however, that departures may be made therefrom within the scope of the invention and that obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art.

Ake-mongkol In Bloom
My Ake-Mongkol had this beautiful bloom on it this morning.
Rick, thank you so much for the nice comments. Yes, mine are just setting buds and I should have some really wonderful bloom all fall.
I have about 50 named varieties that should start blooming and quite a few of my own seedlings. Sadly, I feel this TERRIBLE urge to buy more. UGH! I would really like some of the true species. I'm hoping I can curb my obsession until next spring.
How are all your plants doing? Is your bloom starting to wind down now?
Tell me about the urge to buy more. Nuts I say, just nuts, but I like nuts.
I was just thinking of getting more from Rinoa after everyone just getting some. I got some earlier in the year and I will wait. I find if I get them in Mar./Apr. they get a better start for me.
I am enjoying my different specie forms and it is nice to have some of them also.
My Swazicum seedlings have such interesting looking leaves.
The Seed grown plants have quite a different look than the grafted ones we buy. Branching can be lower and multi-branched. Grafted plants never look the same.
I have a few more ready to bloom and have high hopes for many of my seedlings to still bloom. Weather here has been very hot for most of July and Aug so far. Only a few days of rain.
You are in a better position to order species forms within the U.S. as opposed to growing from seed.
I got some seed grown plants from Rinoa in the spring along with the grafted ones.
Looking forward to seeing your plants bloom for you.
I miss Laura posting.
Rick, I miss Laura posting too.
Also, thank you for letting me know that I am not alone...I cannot understand why I cannot be happy with all the plants I have. I must be related to the cow or horse... always looking for greener pastures on the other side of the fence.
Today I cleaned out my entire greenhouse. I removed all the plants except a few that grow up and weave around the rafters. I sprayed for the pests that bother my plants and in a few days I will replace all my plants and begin to make room for all my pots that need a winter residence.
Ah heck...place one last order with Rinoa. The winter duldrums will set in and we will all regret not placing that last order.
Have a wonderful weekend...what is left of it.

Chocolate Mint
I have a LOT of chocolate mint growing in my flowerbed and am trying to find ways to use it. How does one go about making mint oil? Is that possible at home?
Check out the link below:
Here is a link that might be useful: chocolate mint etc
Makes 1 cake, 12 servings.
This torte uses yet one more technique for infusing fresh herbs. This time you steep mint leaves in warm butter, strain them out, and use the scented butter in the cake. Flourless chocolate cakes are familiar to most serious chocolate lovers because they are the most intensely chocolate cakes imaginable. They are, in fact, cooled dense chocolate souffl and very simple to make. The fresh peppermint flavor in this version gives it a refreshing taste.
About 1 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened, for the pan
1 tbsp. all-purpose flour, for the pan
6 ounces (1-1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup (gently packed) fresh chocolate mint or peppermint leaves
12 ounces premium bittersweet chocolate chopped
6 large eggs, at room temperature
6 tbsp. granulated sugar
Garnish with powdered sugar
Preparing the pan: Generously butter a 9 inch springform pan and lightly dust the interior with the flour. Turn the pan upside down and bang out the excess flour. Wrap a large square of heavy-duty aluminum foil around the bottom of the pan and partially up the sides. Turn the pan right side up and set it in a shallow baking pan or on a half-sheet pan.
Infusing the butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Stir in the mint leaves and let the butter sit in a warm place for about 30 minutes to absorb the flavor of the leaves.
Butter and chocolate mixture: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Create a double boiler by selecting a medium (10-12") stainless-steel mixing bowl that will rest on top of large (6-quart) pot. The top of the bowl can extend beyond the rim of the pot, but the bottom of the bowl must not touch the water. Put about 2" water in the pot and bring it to a simmer. If the butter has cooled, heat it again to thin it. Pour the butter through a fine sieve into the mixing bowl and press the leaves with the back of a spoon to extract all the butter. Add the chocolate to the bowl and place it over the simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted, then remove the bowl from the water.
Eggs: Beat the eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on high speed for a full 10 minutes. They should quadruple in volume and become light colored, very thick and fluffy. Fold 1/4 of the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture, then very gently fold in the remaining egg mixture until completely incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Baking: Put the baking pan with the cake on the center oven rack and pour in enough water to come about 1/2" up the sides of the cake pan. Bake until an instant-thermometer inserted in the center of the cake register 155 to 160 F, 25 to 30 minutes. The top of the cake will lose its glossiness and be slightly mounded, but it should not bake so long that it rises and cracks. If you insert a skewer into the center, it should come out gooey. Let the cake cool completely in its pan on a wire rack. Run a thin knife around the edge of the cake and remove the outer ring. The cake will keep tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring it to room temperature before serving. Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream, ice cream or custard sauce.
Recipe from: "The Herbfarm Cookbook" by Jerry Traunfeld.
There are supposed to be some very delectable and sophisticated recipes that demand the chocolate variety of mint. I am still searching for them. :)
This is from website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A505513
There's a herb called chocolate mint that actually tastes a bit like mint chocolate. If it's dried, the chocolate mint aroma is especially strong. It can be chopped up fresh and sprinkled over ice cream, cake or anything that could use a mint chocolate flavour.
It might sound a bit strange, but mint is good in drinks in the summer. When you make your ice cubes, just put a leaf or two of mint in the water before you freeze it.
If you wait until the mint leaves dry out (or dry them in a food dryer), you can make tea from them:
1 or 2 tablespoons dried chocolate mint leaves (these should be slightly crumbled but not powdered)
A packet of hot chocolate mix or some instant coffee mix (optional but recommended)
Bring the water to the boil.
Put the leaves in a tea strainer and hang the strainer over a cup.
Pour the boiling water into the cup.
Leave for about 15 minutes then stir hot chocolate or instant coffee mix into tea
How about mint syrup? I usually make it with Kentucky Colonel spearmint for mint juleps or iced tea, but I bet chocolate mint syrup would be great in coffee or homemade hot chocolate!
1 cup cold water
2 cups sugar
6 mint springs (I use a LOT more to make it really minty)
Mix sugar and water in a saucepan and cook over high heat for 5 minutes (it's usually just coming to a boil at that point, but it can vary). Let syrup cool, then add the mint. Cover and steep for 12 hours, then stir a couple of times. Strain through cheesecloth to remove mint, bottle the syrup & keep in the refrigerator. I've kept it as long as a year this way (forgot it was in the back of the fridge) and it was still good!
Or hey, what about a Chocolate Mint Julep? I've never tried it, but it could be interesting :) - Combine 1 pint bourbon and ½ pint of your Chocolate Mint syrup; chill in the refrigerator at least overnight. Fill julep cups or short cocktail glasses with crushed ice, pour in the bourbon-mint syrup stuff. Add a mint sprig for a garnish and a short straw (so your nose is in the mint as you sip!) and serve immediately. Hm! I might have to start growing chocolate mint, too.......
Chocolate Mint essential oil
3 tablespoons chocolate mint leaves
1 pint warm vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
Crush the veins of the leaves with a mortar and pestle. Add to the oil and vinegar in a jar. Cover and place in a warm sunny window for one week. Strain the leaves. If the scent is to your liking, that's it. If you want it stronger, repeat the process with new leaves in the same liquid.

Using Juju to Deploy your Rails Application
One of Juju's main use cases is to deploy your application directly out of version control and into a cloud. Since Juju supports local and remote clouds, this makes for a nice workflow that enables you to rev your app quickly on your local machine and then deploy out the cloud.
In this HowTo we will deploy a Rails/PostgreSQL application directly from github. The application will be behind an HAProxy service so that we can horizontally scale when needed.
We will then set up a local-to-cloud workflow with our application so we can do continuous deployment. Since we deploy locally in the exact same way as we deploy to a cloud, this is a powerful method for developing your application in an environment that more closely resembles production.
Before moving on you should have gone through the Getting Started section and installed and configured Juju.
Basic Usage of the Ruby on Rails Charm
Create a YAML config file with your application's name and its git location
repo: https://github.com/pavelpachkovskij/sample-rails
Deploy the application and a proxy:
juju deploy --config sample-app.yaml rails myapp
juju deploy haproxy
juju add-relation haproxy myapp
Deploy and relate database:
juju deploy postgresql
juju add-relation postgresql:db myapp
Now you can run migrations:
juju ssh myapp/0 run rake db:migrate
Seed database
juju ssh myapp/0 run rake db:seed
And finally expose the proxy:
juju expose haproxy
Find the instance's public URL from
juju status haproxy
Scale horizontally by adding and removing units:
juju add-unit myapp
juju remove-unit myapp
Or go even larger with
juju add-unit -n10 myapp for 10 nodes.
Local to Cloud Workflow
The previous example deploys your application quickly to the cloud, in this example we will show how to hack and test on an application locally on your laptop and then push out to the public cloud.
We need to configure 2 environments, a local one and a public cloud one.
- Configure the local provider on your machine.
- Configure a public or private cloud on your machine.
- HP Cloud
- OpenStack
In this example the local environment is named "local" and we'll deploy to an
AWS environment called
amazon. First let's
switch to the local environment
and bootstrap.
juju switch local
juju bootstrap
Create a YAML config file with your application's name and its git location
repo: https://github.com/pavelpachkovskij/sample-rails
Deploy the application and database:
juju deploy --config ~/sample-app.yaml rails myapp
juju deploy postgresql
and relate them:
juju add-relation myapp postgresql
Now open up your browser and go to
http://localhost to get your application
loaded in your browser.
Continuous Deployment
Continue to write your code, push to git as you land features and fixes. When you're ready to test it you can tell Juju to check the git repository again:
juju set myapp repo=https://github.com/yourapplication
The charm will then fetch the latest code and you can refresh your browser at
Repeat pushing to git and using the juju set command to keep a live instance of your application running in your local environment.
Push to your Public/Private Cloud
After you've repeatedly upgraded your application locally it's time to push it out to a place where your coworkers can see your app in all its glory, let's push this to AWS. Same exact commands as before, just to a different environment:
juju switch amazon
juju bootstrap
juju deploy --config ~/myapp.yaml rails myapp
juju deploy postgresql
juju add-relation postgresql myapp
Since we're on a public cloud and not on a local provider we need to explicitly expose the service and get its public IP:
juju expose myapp
juju status myapp
And put the ec2 URL in your browser. If you want to enable some horizontal scalability to your application you can do so, even after you've deployed!
juju deploy haproxy
juju add-relation haproxy myapp
juju expose haproxy
juju unexpose myapp
And then get the public IP from the haproxy instead (notice how we've unexposed your application so that only haproxy is serving the public internet):
juju status haproxy
Now you can
juju add-unit myapp and
juju remove-unit myapp based on load.
Tearing it all down
The local containers survive reboots and do not go away until you explicitly tear the environment down. Now that your coworkers have seen your great application let's also stop spending money:
$ juju destroy-environment -e amazon
$ juju destroy-environment -e local
Charm Details
This document just scratches the surface of what is possible with the Rails charm, for more deployment options, including support for more databases, integrated logging with Logstash/Kibana, and Nagios integration, make sure you check out the Charm README for more information.
