Customer Reviews
Exactly as described. Quality and great price!
kathryn from Derby, KS – Verified Buyer
TV cart is perfect for our heavy 27 inch tv/vcr/dvd combo. Product is great quality, functions as needed. It comes with a strap so to secure the heavy tv to the top shelf. That along with the wide bottom should prevent any tipping over. We like the caution stickers advising small children should not be allowed to play or climb on the shelves. We are using this in an adult classroom, but we will have some occasions where small children are present, with supervision. Shipping was on-time, all items intact. Assembly was a nightmare. Some of the holes did not match where the shelf was, and the proximity of the screws to the metal was too close to the tops of the piece. But, we have a very good handyman who managed to make it all come together in about 2 hours. We are very happy with this purchase.
OUR SKU # SF49383-Shelf Wide Base AV Cart is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: 8931BL

Not at all. Best service ever.
The truck perfprmed well and met our needs however the wiper blades were in poor condition and needed replacement.
I love the folks at AM storage in College Station!
I didn't get the size truck I wanted.

We did not get the 2 dollies that I ordered.
I was NOT happy with my UHaul experience.
Got there BEFORE my appointed time, there was a line and only ONE person working.
This storage facility was inaccurately listed as a Uhaul 1-month free storage option. I found out otherwise upon arrival. Nonetheless, the facility itself was quality.

Great service
Location is good and stuff is nice.
However the strorage rooms are a little dirty.

Lieutenant John Patrick Hamilton
|Birth date:
|January 1896
|Birth place:
|Australia: New South Wales, Orange
|Death date:
|February 1961
|Death place:
|Australia: New South Wales, Sydney
|Final rank:
|Service number:
|943 - First World War, 1914-1918
N73242 - Second World War, 1939-1945
NX150350 - Second World War, 1939-1945
Born in Orange, New South Wales, in January 1896, John Hamilton was working as a butcher near Lithgow when he enlisted in the AIF in September 1914. He was posted to the 3rd Battalion and after training in Egypt, took part in the landing on Gallipoli on 25 April 1915.
On 9 August, during the battle of Lone Pine, the Turks launched a violent assault with intense rifle and machine-gun fire. Hamilton, together with several other men, was ordered out of the trenches onto the parapet, in order to halt the enemy advance. For six hours he lay in the open, protected only by a few sandbags, telling those in the trenches where to throw their bombs, while keeping up constant sniper fire.
For his coolness and daring example Hamilton received the Victoria Cross, the only one awarded to his unit during the war. Hamilton later served in France, and he was eventually commissioned as a second lieutenant after the Armistice. During the Second World War he again served in the army, attaining the rank of captain. Hamilton died in Sydney in February 1961.
Citation (abridged):
During a heavy bomb attack by the enemy on the newly-captured position at Lone Pine, Private Hamilton, with utter disregard of personal safety, exposed himself under heavy fire on the parados in order to secure a better firing position against the enemy s bomb-throwers. His coolness and daring example had an immediate effect. The defence was encouraged and the enemy driven off with heavy loss.

The Space
Apartment LA LOGGIA is in Agriturismo Casale Il Caggio
The original nucleus is represented by and ancient tower-house of the XVI century, it has been enlarged with years and in XX century it reached the typical structure of the Tuscan farmhouse , with many constructions situated around the farmyard, the past core of the domestic life. The structure has been completely restored at the begin of 21st century, but respecting and valorising those elements and characteristics that render the Tuscan house unique: big fireplaces, visible beams, the hand made terracotta and the serene stone.
In the central part of the house there is a wide common area with a small restaurant and a kitchen equipped for "cooking class". The products used are almost exclusively of own production: from animals (lambs, goats, pigeons, ducks, chickens ) to vegetables, to fruit. In the farmhouse is also possible to buy typical products and taste wine and oil.
The whole offers a wide common area with wood oven, barbecue, swimming pool (16x6 m). Moreover, at guests' disposal, a ping pong table and a small gym in the ancient granary. An old annex, appropriately restructured, hosts a Jacuzzi (4x1.8 m), coated of sand stone. The water, coming directly from its source, is heated at ideal temperature in order to enjoy relax moments in the calm and colours of the Tuscan countryside
Geographical position and proximity to major communication routes allows easy access to places of historical and artistic interest in Central Italy. The most interesting routes are those that lead from Siena to San Gimignano to the Chianti Tour, or to Assisi and Perugia or to the wine zone of Montepulciano, or to Pienza and Montalcino. In the immediate vicinity it will be rather nice to discover the medieval towns of Lucignano and the Gargonza Castle and the towns of Cortona and Arezzo. Within easy driving distance also the Baths of Rapolano
For those who love sports, only 4 km far there are stables with riding school and 20 km far you have golf and tennis fields.

Vivere in questo Casale, è rivivere il tempo passato con le comodità di oggi. E' bello respirare l'aria fresca del mattino, il sole al tramonto, il canto degli uccelli, nella quiete e tranquillità del luogo. Di notte la visione della Luna, le costellazioni, le stelle più luminose.
Nous avons adoré notre séjour de l'arrivée à la dernière seconde. Les cottages de Paolo sont charmants, spacieux et entourés par une végétation typique (des oliviers, des plantes grasses, des cactus...)... au coeur d'un jardin magnifique et d'une campagne très belle. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'accueil de nos hôtes, la tranquillité de leur domaine et ses équipements, avec mentions spéciales pour la piscine et le jacuzzi géant (un délice)... Mais il y a aussi de quoi faire du sport, bouquiner... Côté équipements des cottages, rien ne manque et Paolo est toujours disponible si vous avez besoin de quelque chose. Avec votre famille et vos amis, vous pourrez choisir de prendre vos repas, à la table de Paolo (les plats traditionnels préparés par sa femme sont à tomber) ou utiliser votre cuisine pour vous préparer votre repas et le déguster sur une terrasse ou dans le jardin où tables, chaises et transats vous tendent les bras toute la journée. Que dire de plus ? C'est un véritable coup de coeur, partagé. A quelques dizaines de kilomètres, de très belles petites villes à découvrir comme Arezzo, Cortona, Siena ou Montepulciano.
We had a wonderful time at Casale Il Caggio. The apartment was big enough for the 4 of us, everything worked and it was all very clean. Whatever we needed (plug adaptor, bottle opener, etc.) we got from Paolo. Both him and Gabriella were always helpful and made us feel at home. Breakfast was excellent, with cold cuts, home made bread, organic fruit and at least 3 different cakes baked by Gabriella. Top!! We also had dinner there and was a real treat. With homemade pasta, 4 different types homemade ice cream and typical Toscan starters. We enjoyed the garden when it was sunny but specially the jacuzzi, very very very nice. There is also a track just off the agroturismo for a hike all the way to Civitella. All in all, fantastic place, gorgeous surroundings and amazing hosts. Thank you, Paolo and Gabriella!

Off-Campus Housing:
On campus housing is the majority and very strongly supported by college
Off-Campus Dining:
I don't get out much, kinda expensive but many options
The honor code makes me feel very safe and at home
I could use more money but overall it was an easy process
Party Scene:
I don't go to parties much
Campus Food:
There isn't much variety, the meal plan is limited, the hours are ridiculous and inconvenient
Campus Housing:
Most of the housing is really nice but two of the main dorms don't have air conditioning
Off-Campus Dining:
i dont eat off campus
i dont really know to much about them
i was a lot to have to fill out
Party Scene:
i dont atttend any events becuase they are too late and i have to go home
Campus Food:
they provide a menu at the station,there is a variety of different foods you can pick from,the staff is friendly
Campus Housing:
i dont live on campus
Off-Campus Housing:
I live on campus and have no interest in living off campus while attending, so I have never had to actively figure out how living off-campus works.
Off-Campus Dining:
The food out in town is pretty good, but there are some expensive places. However, I typically choose to dine on campus since it's already been paid for.
Our campus is very liberal with its rules, but we are very strict about the Honor Code and our general housing rules involving noise and underage drinking.
I had a very easy process. My financial aid went through quickly and without too many issues. It was very well explained to me by my admissions counselor. My admissions counselor was very informed and always had an answer if I had a question.
Party Scene:
We never really have our own parties. We mostly go to other campuses since ours is very small. We do have a few during the year though. I'm not a social person, so I'm never in the know and never attend if I do know of one being held on campus.
Campus Food:
The food is better than at some colleges I visited, but it's still not fabulous. It's definitely generic to fit everyone's dietary needs. The soft-serve machine almost never works. Weekend food is horrendous, and I usually can never really eat much then because the options are very limited and not appetizing at all. Breakfast and lunch are typically good, and dinner is very hit or miss.
Campus Housing:
Everyone's very friendly, and the Residence Life staff is very helpful. The bathrooms are generally clean when considering how many women are using them daily, and the halls themselves are typically clean. The rooms are pretty big for dorm rooms, and my hall mates are generally friendly. The kitchen is rather small, and our microwave didn't work at the beginning of the year. However, the microwave has been replaced and is working fine. The fridge/freezer could use some help with space issues, but that's all dependent on the residents.
Health & Safety:
I think it's pretty safe as a campus because of the blue columns all around campus that students can use to ask for help.
Off-Campus Housing:
I haven't experienced it, then I can't judge it. A big percentage of the students live on campus
Not perfect, but still good. I honestly think that students rely more on scholarships from other associations.
Greek Life:
I just can't judge it because I don't know any Greek.
Off-Campus Dining:
Many people like it. The problem is that some students do not like walking in the dark.

Agnes Scott is a liberal arts school with a small professor-to-student ratio, with rigorous academics and a thriving club life. The professors are all passionate about the subjects they teach and have had some experience in their fields, too. For the most part, they bring their all to each class. Not only are the professors intelligent and passionate, but they are also personable. There are few professors who are difficult to speak with about problems, anxieties, or comments about a class. The same can be said for all of the faculty and staff at Agnes. Everyone is committed to allowing students to learn and grow. The small community helps everything be personal.
Agnes helps to shape students into well-rounded individuals with the skills to enter a career. In order to get the full Agnes experience, it's important to put yourself out there. Many skills can't be acquired without reaching out to the College's offices or clubs/organizations. However, the most important thing any prospective student should remember about Agnes when making her big decision is that Agnes is a small, private, women's liberal arts college. All of these factors are important to consider because they will determine the experience you have. All in all, the Agnes experience is a wonderful one, but students should be aware that this experience is only obtained if they actively engage in the community around them.

CBS Sets Summer Premiere Dates for Under the Dome and Extant; Two Dome Characters Will Die Right Away
DOME! DOME DOME DOME! Get ready, Domeheads (is that what you call yourselves?), because CBS has just announced a Season 2 premiere date for Under the Dome, its ridiculous summer series that once upon a time was a "limited event" based on the Stephen King novel of the same name and is now returning for a second season of dome sex, weird eggs, and more. Big Jim and the rest of the Chester's Mill gang will be back on Monday, June 30 at 10pm with a premiere written by Stephen King himself, and according to the teaser that we just saw at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour, "two Dome favorites" (LOL) won't survive the first episode. Obviously this means we'll be running an Under the Dome Dead Pool before the series returns, but in the meantime, place your early bets in the comments: Who do think will bite it? Who do you think should bite it?
Also coming to the Eye network this summer is Extant, the limited event series (at least for now) from Steven Spielberg that stars Halle Berry as an astronaut who returns home to Earth after spending 13 months alone in space, only to discover that "something came with her." Details on this one have been vague in recent months, but having just seen a first-look teaser (which we'll post as soon as it's available), here are a few tidbits:
– Halle Berry's character is pregnant with what is obviously going to be an alien baby
– Halle Berry's character has a human husband who's an inventor and a child he built for them who is an android
– Halle Berry's character has bangs
The show promises to combine artificial intelligence with extraterrestrial intelligence. Production begins this February in Los Angeles, and the show will debut Wednesday, July 2 at 9pm.

i have forgotten everyone's name to guess who will die. they were about to hang a guy . there were a few kids . a reporter a dj, that bald guy hank, his mad son , and a lady police officer. i dont care if they alll die. noone is my favourite
BereniceAndrea Jan 17, 2014
ive missed all the under the dome posts. GOOD LORD, I'VE MISSED THIS.
MightyMad Jan 16, 2014
... Why only two characters?
neJANIS Jan 16, 2014
While Under The Dome was entertaining for obvious reasons (see dumb plot, stupid characters and terrible actors) it just makes me sad that this crap got second season, while show that nobody knows (see Siberia) was left with no promotion, bad ratings and huge clifhanger while it was actually miles better than this.
RachaelChan Jan 16, 2014
Agree wholeheartedly. Every time I see the name "Under the Dome" I cringe. Whereas Siberia had some problems, it was better on every level.
JosephCecil Jan 16, 2014
Hopefully every week two characters die until only two remain, and they must fight to the death to survive.
JetixMasterDan Jan 16, 2014
If I were a betting man, which I'm not, I would go with Officer Linda and one of the kids as being those that will be eliminated first.
akyag Jan 16, 2014
Dome was the best comedy out there and a good exercise for the eyes.. (rolling eyes of course).. PS- Don't kill officer moron I tell you.. you will loose half the viewers right there... :D :D
Acrobit Jan 16, 2014
Ehh, no clue who's gonna bite it. I'd love for it to be the dome so it could crash down and kill every person under it. Yeah, so maaaybe Bald Chick and Idiot in Beanie. If they kill that guy for me, I'll at least give them another four weeks.
"Duude, Baby Dome's hurtin' mah earballs..."
It can't be Big Jim unless they're about to start a Town v Gov't arc (though they should kill him just to save the actor from himself), and Big Jim would honestly work better in that arc so they could redeem him--nvm. Dunno why I'm talking about this show as if it needed to make any sense.
More importantly, why are we still pretending Stephen King makes good things on television? He does not translate well.
smithinjapan Jan 16, 2014
There are no Dome 'favorites', I'd say, aside from Hank -- or Big Jim (such a step down!). Stephen King adaptions can be so utterly horrible at times, but in a way I'm glad to hear that he's scripting the first episode. Not sure if that will make it better or worse, but will make it more genuine. My guess is the already horrible dialogue will suffer some, but hey.
tusharkishore Jan 16, 2014
They should have collapsed the whole dome and finished the whole town and be done with this idiotic show.

Three countries in one day!
... Unfortunately they were still on the franc do the prices were still a bit expensive. We had a schnitzel sandwich and it was incredibly disappointing. It was like a schnitzel you would get from a bulk buy packet!! It tasted ok, but we were all so excited for the traditional schnitzel. Here is a fun fact about Liechtenstein - they are the highest producer of dentures in the world. We then walked around for a bit and played in the snow again and then made our way ...
... the lake and that was enough, it was lunch time so we walked back towards the subway we have used. Next to the park a few streets away we picked a small but busy restaurant. Just a top spot, inexpensive because it was out of the way, but packed with locals, we are welcomed in and three chairs are found and a very pleasant few hours spent having lunch in a nice atmosphere. Not much to look at inside or out but the locals know good food and ...
A week in Innsbruck
Our week in Innsbruck has come to an end and boy have we had a fantastic time here. We arrived Monday afternoon and flew over the snow-capped mountains to land in the centre of Innsbruck. Looking up at the alps when you're standing on the tar mac will never get old. It's just amazing. We are staying in Old Town and have the royal gardens right behind us. Everything is within walking distance, which was perfect. There are many Christmas markets doing a roaring trade, my favs were ...
Our first ski lesson
Today Dan and I had our very first ski lesson and learnt to ski. As per usual Dan was a pro and I fell **** over head first go haha. Good to see that not much has changed in the last 12 months.
We got picked up by the ski school's car and taken to the ski rental school where we got kitted out in ski boots, skis, poles and pants. We decided our down jackets would suffice and sunglasses would prevent the snow for getting into eyes. Note to self the poles ...
The first snow fall of the season
... snow village we imagined we would get to see. It's just beautiful.
We've played like kids in the snow, had snow ball fights, built a snow man (sort of), jumped in it, fell in it, and thoroughly looked like deadset tourists haha. I love snow!

Google Sees Display Advertising Becoming More Sophisticated
We demonstrated some new video ad formats we've been testing on YouTube that we're calling "TrueView." These will roll out later this year. These ad formats give people the option to skip an ad if they don't want to watch, or to choose from multiple ads the one they want to watch. Importantly, advertisers only pay if the user chooses to watch their ad.
We showed some of the things that are becoming possible with our new Teracent technology. This technology can dynamically alter the creative elements of an ad in real-time to make it more relevant and effective, depending on factors like geographic location, language, the content of the website and the time of day.
You might be familiar with Google Goggles, a way to search the web on mobile devices just by taking a picture. We gave a preview of some experimental uses of Google Goggles that could one day enable advertisers to deliver great display ads to users. Imagine pointing your phone's camera at an ad for a car in a magazine, and having the car appear in 3D in your mobile device. Or pointing at a movie poster and having the movie trailer play in the device, right in your hand. No QR codes, no downloads!
We even showed a fun example of what rich media can do—our speech was broadcast live in a number of expandable ad units across the web, and was updated with tweets in real time.

Google will do anything to rake in more advertising revenue.
The "picture to ad" concept is interesting. It reminds me of the mobile aps that recognize music playing, and then relay the artist and title.

So the key is to know where I am, what language I speak etc. Giving this information away is being used to try and get into my wallet so forgive me if i'm less than thrilled.

however, the sad reality is, that the evolution of google banner ads has stopped at the time of introduction. as well as the state of image advertising itself remains somewhere near the time of 1998.
the quality especially of google image ads is so ridiculously low at times, that as a publisher i sometimes feel ashamed to enable them on my websites. the fact that every small mom and pop business has the opportunity to throw some hand-crafted banners into the content network has to be reconsidered. many advertisers would never spend a cent for a professional designer. or the ads are part of a trickery campaign where only the cheap clicks matter. that's how the ads look like. there are no minimum quality standards. and we publishers are supposed to show the eye cancer to our respected users.. this approach certainly draws down the reputation of the advertising business as a whole. apart from that basically users hate banner ads no matter what.

I agree with you moTi. I have stopped showing image ads many a time for just t5his reason, then I see my payouts drop, once again reverting to the default, and scrambling to filter out such ads. Google is diving into "creating the future" as they see fit, leaving a lot of holes behind. It would be nice to see some "quality control" when it comes to adverts.

Right on! The web should be completely free of advertising, especially targeted ads.
On the down side, I suspect we'd see a lot of websites close up almost overnight. I know I wouldn't be spending hours each day conducting research, and trying to figure out something no one has ever figured out before if I wasn't getting paid to do it.
Free the web!

"If the user chooses to watch the ad"
Who in their right mind actually chooses to watch an ad? Not many as a percentage I would guess.
Its like saying to the missus - hey - turn that fantastic film off - I want to watch the ads.
Yeah right goofle - that is full of holes - go and fail.

This stuff is aka dancing baloney.
It worked for the lowermybills scammers.
It was amusing watching the dance, but that was about it.
Did it every work for any good guys?
I know I "invested" over 10K (personal money back when that was REAL money) on dancing baloney banner advertising and all I got was a scarf.
Will it ever work for the good guys? Some say they are making it work. Are they talking?
Google / Doubleclick & partners don't have enough guts yet to figure out who the good guys are.

Sorry so many are down on advertising. I've made some decent change over the years, as a newspaper publisher and on the web.
Gotta say to those who don't want any advertising on the web, by taking away financial incentive, you'd also eliminate a lot of the creativity. Man's gotta eat, after all.
The real reason I came here was to point out how self-serving the headline of this post - Google Sees Display Advertising Becoming More Sophisticated - is.
Geez, we own Doubleclick, and guess what? Display ads are going to be cooler and better for you.
Whoopie! I sell books. Reading makes you smarter.
Checked out G's promo for display ads. They must think they invented the idea and nobody knows what it is.
Despite their sophomoric approach, having them preach the gospel of display ads is probably good for those of us in the business, so I probably shouldn't complain. Oops, already did.

There are other image advertising companies that you guys should look into before writing it off...yes it is possible google doesnt do it best (gasp)

Even now, many years later, there's someone you remember, and with that person still comes a degree of wonder along with the hope of what-might-have-been. The topic reminds one of a "should-da—would-da-could-da" situation — at which time nothing would be done.

My stay at Chsanns
you needed and was nicely furnished. Hated to leave. Will be back next year for sure. Close to Glenn's which has great food and also near
to Harmony Hall.
Apartment cleaned everyday and staff very friendly. It's like a home away from home.
About the Owner
My name is Dulcia Tulloch I was born in Nottingham England and have lived in Jamaica for 38 years as I
married a Jamaican. My husband and I just love this
apartment it has a special feeling of calm about it.
You are just steps to the ocean and so you can swim,
before breakfast and then again after dinner. Can you
imagine swimming in the ocean with the sunset on the
rocks at Chrisanns that's the nearest thing to heaven.
I do hope you will choose my apartment and Chrisanns
for your special time in the sun. Look forward to seeing you in this special island in the. Dulcia Margaritta owner.
Guestbook comments from the owner
My daughter and I absolutely loved our Jamaican vacation and a lot of it was because of the great accommodation at Chrisanns! The location was beautiful and quiet. We just loved the little private beach just steps away from the lovely pool. How I enjoued lounging outside in the afternoons and listening to the waves. Ocho Rios is very easily reachable via local taxi for shopping or entertainment. Reggae Beach can be reached on foot for a chill day or a beach so beautiful it looks like it belongs on a postcard!!! The staff at Chrisanns was so very helpful and they made our stay as enjoyable as I could have imagined. Finally I would like to thank Dulcia, the owner, for all of the information she provided so promptly and for making he booking process extremely simple.

My niece and I went to Jamaica for eight days in June of this year 2014 and this resort was the best I have been to Jamaica a few times and stay at several different places, but this resort by far was the best The staff was wonderful we had made service every single day. And they were so polite so friendly so nice, the resort was beautiful everything about this place was just awesome, the apartment owner Dulcia is great she have a wonderful personality and she make you feel like family, she and her staff had the place looking wonderful when we got there, we even had snacks just in case we got hungry and something to drink . When you first walk onto the resort you will notice the beautiful ocean right in front of you! The water is so clean the entire atmosphere is to die for, they have a restaurant right across the street from us and and a few feet up the street is a grocery store,, we had everything we needed within walking distance, next year my family and I are going back to Jamaica for a graduation celebration and without a doubt we are going to stay at this resort, at least most of us will this place is just wonderful it has a full kitchen with everything you could think of the upstairs loft was big and roomy and the downstairs has a pullout bed just in case you have company but to sum it up this resort is the best place to stay in Jamaica .

very special place with wonderful staff to look after you and make your vacation the best
ever. I look forward to you returning.

From the Owner
"The reason we chose Chrisanns was the beautiful view of the pool and ocean as you enter the property and that it was is just steps to the ocean. Any other property you have to walk far to get to the ocean. I wanted to know that I could get up in the mornings and be in the ocean in 2 minutes."
Activity and Interests
Approximately 4 miles away from the nearest town of Ocho Rios which offers duty free shopping, other attractions include, Dunns River Falls, Harmony Hall which is in walking distance from Chrisanns. This is home to Toscanini Jamaica's finest Italian restaurant. Swimming with the Dolphins at Dolphin Cove and Horseback Riding are very popular.
There are restaurants few minutes walking distance from Chrisanns. Also a local grocery shop is just across the road. Taxis are very cheap and run all the time into the town centre if you need to go to the bank or visit the cruise ships which are always docked in the harbour.

Everything You Need to Know About Transcription Services
Transcription services offer you the chance to have your audio materials transcribed into written materials. There are software programs and apps that seem to offer you these services but they often leave your drowning in a sea of punctuation, grammar, and other errors that you have to manually fix. Speechpad transcriptions offers you something more. It offers you real people who will do the transcribing for you just like you would transcribe it yourself.
Why You Should Use a Transcription Service?
There are a number of different reasons that you might want to consider using a transcription service. Here are the top ten that you should know about.
· Speed – Transcription services off your completed transcriptions in a timely manner. Many times you will have everything done in a matter of hours or a few days. If you were trying to do this on your own it would likely take a lot longer.
· Cost – Transcription services are very affordable.
· Grammar – A transcription service will offer you the chance to have your work transcribed with the right grammar.
· Punctuation – A transcription service is able to use the right punctuation in the right places.
· Translations to Different Languages – You can have your information translated to a number of different languages.
· Efficient – Many times transcription services are far more efficient than doing the work yourself.Read more »

All Over 30 promises many, many things: updates six days a week, HD movies and high-res photos, and a model roster devoid completely of 'skanks' - but have all those promises been kept? I, Mr. Pink, your vigilant porno advisor investigated and analyzed this MILF-porn stalwart to bring you a review loaded with revelations and straight-up real talk. All Over 30, now in its ninth year of operation, serves up an amazingly deep and detailed assortment of porn featuring not the teens and young adults you're used to beating it to, but mature-aged beauties hell bent on exploiting their sexual prime.
Your forties are supposed to be a time of stoic self-reflection, domestic consolidation, and planning for retirement. If you're a cock-starved 40-something broad with nothing but sex on your mind, though, it's easy to see why you'd end up on the digital pages of 40 Something Mag, a Score Group website that celebrates older, more mature, more experienced women. Showcasing their persistent carnal energy in 720p HD videos, 40 Something Mag proves that it's experience and enthusiasm that counts most in sex, not youth.
If she's always joining her mother for shopping trips, yoga sessions, salon visits, and other, more secretive meetings, there's a good chance the object of your attention and affection is a Mommy's Girl. On the site of the same name, one of four sites on the Girlsway network, young pornstars beauties are seduced by their step-moms, mother-in-laws, aunts, and MILFy neighbors, leading to explicit yet intimate hardcore lesbian sex that not only sees participants orgasming like wildfire but will have you doing the same at home.
Aunt Judy is her name and dishing up softcore and hardcore, photographic and videographic pornography starring women well into their lives is her game. Ok, so I still don't have any idea who this Aunt Judy character really is, but ATK Aunt Judy's is a site doing exactly what it says above. With an immense archive having been amassed over an incredible fourteen years, ATK Aunt Judy's has plenty to offer the discerning (and, apparently, the less than discerning) fan of MILF or mature porn. If you decide to check it out, give Aunt Judy my best, will you?
Her recurring role as "Serra Paylin" in Hustler's political porn parodies may have brought the incomparable Lisa Ann to the attention of the mainstream media, but those of us in the porn game have been jackin' and jivin' to this AVN Hall of Famer's body of work for years. Now Serra Paylin herself, the one and only Lisa Ann aims to make you her sexual slave by offering an assortment of exclusive hardcore movies and galleries on her official website, the somewhat curiously titled The Lisa Ann. Unlike her ever-reliable, endlessly fuckable body, though, Lisa Ann isn't always at the top of her game. What can members expect from this, her official online home? Mr. Pink reports live from D.C.

A Hollywood production company has cancelled plans to film a movie in Sweden because of a recent spike in antisemitic hate crimes.
Swedish school pupils will have the opportunity to take Jewish studies as an optional subject starting from this autumn.
After a lengthy consultation period, the Swedish government has commissioned the National Agency for Education to formulate a study plan for the new course, which will be available to pupils in years seven to nine (ages 13 to 15).
The president of the European Jewish Congress (EJC) has warned of "a very dark period for the Jews in Europe."
Moshe Kantor said: "Small Jewish communities are facing a situation where they are being physically, verbally and psychologically threatened by fundamentalist elements and their extreme left-wing cohorts on one side and the far-right neo-Nazis on the other."
While stand-up comedy has been common in Sweden since the late 1980s, Swedish-Jewish stand-up is a new phenomenon. Spearheaded by performers Aron Flam and Jonatan Unge, comedy by and about Jews is becoming an unexpected, and big, hit.
Mr Flam (pictured) and Mr Unge, both in their early 30s, met at a Jewish summer camp in the Stockholm archipelago and later co-authored a sardonic book of quotes and facts about death. Since their stand-up debuts in 2007, both have become regular guests in Swedish TV studios, asked to comment on everything from Jewish identity to Swedish politics.
Members of the Swedish Jewish community have expressed sadness after an attack on a synagogue in the city of Malmö.
Security has been stepped up after a bomb threat was left at the synagogue and the following day a firecracker exploded outside, shattering three windows.
It was reportedly the second threat to the synagogue in as many weeks.
In March 2009 there were violent anti-Israel demonstrations in Malmö when an Israeli tennis team arrived to play Sweden in the Davis Cup.
The man soon to be Britain's first Jewish ambassador to Israel was given a warm reception on Wednesday when he met the Manchester community.
Matthew Gould spoke at King David High School as part of a UK tour before leaving for Tel Aviv in eight weeks' time.
But it was not an easy ride for the Foreign Office high-flyer.
Almost as soon as he finished his hour-long address, he was challenged for not having spoken about the EU's attitude to Israel.
Another member of the audience questioned the viability of a two-state solution for Israel, a firm British government position.
Poland has issued a European arrest warrant for a Swedish man whom it says is behind the theft of the 'Arbeit Macht Frei" sign at Auschwitz in December.
A court in Krakow issued the warrant for Swede Anders Hoegstroem, who, it is claimed, was the mastermind of the theft of the sign, which infamously read "Work Sets You Free" above the Nazi death camp.
Five Polish men aged in their 20s and 30s have been arrested by police who recovered the 16-foot wrought-iron sign cut into three pieces.
The Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt has defended the EU's statement on Jerusalem, which called for it to become the capital of two states.
Mr Bildt's original proposal, which has firm support from Britain, recommended re-dividing the city, so that east Jerusalem could be the capital of a future Palestinian state.
A watered-down version of the Swedish proposal was approved by the EU, removing the recognition of east Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital, and referring to the Palestinian Authority, instead of "Palestine".
The European Union has said that Palestine is not ready to be recognised as a full state by the UN.
The current holder of the EU presidency, Carl Bildt of Sweden, said at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels that conditions were not yet right for Palestinian statehood.
Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said they had decided to seek recognition of the Palestinian state from the UN because of the failure of recent peace talks.
The proposal is an independent Palestinian state with east Jerusalem as its capital and with June 1967 borders.
Have you heard the one about the Jewish woman suing her daughter-in-law for telling too many mother-in-law jokes?
Comic Sunda Croonquist, who is a regular on the Hollywood comedy circuit, is being taken to court by her husband's mother, Ruth Zafrin, for allegedly spreading false, defamatory and racist lies about her. Mrs Zafrin seeks damages and requests that Ms Croonquist remove any offensive statements from her website and routines.

Cationic polymerization of a variety of organic materials such as vinyl monomers, prepolymers, cyclic ethers, cyclic esters, cyclic amines, cyclic sulfides and organosilicon cyclics can be achieved by the use of certain radiation sensitive aromatic onium salts of Group Va elements. In addition, polymerizable compositions are provided which can be used as coating compounds, molding resins, adhesives, etc.
1. A method which comprises
(1) mixing a cationically polymerizable organic material free of oxirane oxygen with an effective amount of a radiation sensitive Group Va onium salt having the formula,
[(R)a (R1)b (R2)c X]+ [MQe ]-(e-f),
R is a monovalent aromatic organic radical selected from carbocyclic radicals and heterocyclic radicals, R1 is a monovalent organic aliphatic radical selected from alkyl, cycloalkyl and substituted derivatives thereof, R2 is a polyvalent organic radical forming an aromatic heterocyclic or fused ring structure with X, X is a Group Va element selected from N, P, As, Sb and Bi, M is a metal or metalloid, Q is a halogen radical, a is a whole number equal to 0 to 4 inclusive, b is a whole number equal to 0 to 2 inclusive, c is a whole number equal to 0 to 2 inclusive, and the sum of A+b+c is a value equal to 4 or the valence of X,
f=valence of M and is an integer equal to from 2 to 7 inclusive,
e is f and is an integer having a value up to 8,
(2) applying the mixture onto a substrate, and
(3) exposing the mixture of (1) to ultraviolet radiation.
2. A method for imparting an image on the surface of a substrate in accordance with claim 1, by
(a) treating the substrate with the composition of step (1),
(b) placing a mask over the treated substrate,
(c) exposing the treated substrate to ultraviolet light, and
(d) washing the substrate with a suitable solvent.
This is a division of application Ser. No. 638,993, filed Dec. 9, 1975, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,069,056, which is a continuation of Ser. No. 466,376, filed May 2, 1974, now abandoned.
Prior to the present invention, it was generally known that a variety of organic materials such as vinyl monomers possessing a high electron density in the double bond, were subject to cationic polymerization. A small amount of a Lewis Acid catalyst, such as SnCl4, SbF5, AsF5, etc. readily polymerizes vinyl monomers such as styrene, butadiene, vinyl alkyl ethers, etc. It is often difficult, however, to generate the Lewis Acid catalyst at the appropriate time for polymerization, or have it properly dispersed throughout the vinyl monomer to achieve uniform results.
Additional organic materials such as aldehydes, cyclic ethers and cyclic esters also can undergo cationic polymerization in the presence of trace amounts of Lewis Acids. Such materials when catalyzed can be employed in coating applications, as encapsulants, and for a variety of thermoplastic applications. However, optimum results cannot be achieved because it is difficult to achieve dispersion or generation of the Lewis Acid in a desirable manner. A further description of the principles by which cationic polymerization of the above described organic materials can be achieved with Lewis Acids is described in Principles of Polymer Chemistry, pp 217-222 by P. J. Flory, Cornell University Press, Ithica, New York (1953), and Polymer Reviews by J. Furukawa and T. Saegusa, Interscience Publishers, New York (1953). Another class of materials which undergoes cationic polymerization in the presence of Lewis Acids is organosilicon cyclics as shown by W. Noll, The Chemistry and Technology of Silicones, pp 219-226, Academic Press, New York (1968).
Improved methods of generating and releasing Lewis Acids to effect polymerization of organic materials can be achieved by using heat sensitive Lewis Acid-tertiary amine complexes, such as complexes of boron trifluoride-tertiary amine. Although improved pot life can be obtained by such tertiary amine complexes, elevated temperatures such as up to 160� C. and substantially long cure times render such methods unsuitable for continuous cures or for the manufacture of delicate electronic devices.
Schlesinger U.S. Pat. No. 3,708,296 or Watt U.S. Pat. No. 3,794,576 describe methods of releasing Lewis Acid catalysts by the use of ultraviolet radiation sensitive aromatic diazonium salts. Although actinic irradiation substantially minimizes the disadvantages of the heat cure, the pot life of the polymerizable mixture during the shelf period is often unsatisfactory. As a result, a stabilizer must be used to prolong the shelf period of the polymerizable mixture. Nitrogen is also generated during cure which can render the resulting product unsuitable in a variety of applications.
The present invention is based on the discovery that certain photosensitive aromatic onium salts of Group Va elements, as illustrated by the formula, ##STR1## can be a source of Lewis Acid such as boron trifluoride, phosphorous pentafluoride, arsenic pentafluoride, etc., when exposed to radiant energy. A variety of radiation polymerizable compositions are provided by incorporating the photosensitive aromatic onium salt into various cationically polymerizable organic materials as described below. Unlike polymerizable compositions containing the above described diazonium salts, the polymerizable compositions of the present invention, which can be in the form of a solid or liquid do not require a stabilizer. Even after extended shelf periods under normal daylight conditions, the polymerizable compositions of the present invention do not exhibit any significant change in properties. In addition, there is no problem with bubbling as characterized by organic resin compositions containing diazonium salts.
The aromatic onium salts of Group Va elements utilized in the curable compositions of the present invention can be more particularly defined by the following formula, ##STR2## where R is a monovalent aromatic organic radical selected from carbocyclic radicals and heterocyclic radicals, R1 is a monovalent organic aliphatic radical selected from alkyl, cycloalkyl and substituted derivatives thereof, R2 is a polyvalent organic radical forming an aromatic heterocyclic or fused ring structure with X, X is a Group Va element selected from N, P, As, Sb and Bi, M is a metal or metalloid, Q is a halogen radical, a is a whole number equal to 0 to 4 inclusive, b is a whole number equal to 0 to 2 inclusive, c is a whole number equal to 0 to 2 inclusive, and the sum of a+b+c is a value equal to 4 or the valence of X,
f=valence of M and is an integer equal to from 2 to 7 inclusive
e is >f and is an integer having a value up to 8.
Radicals included by R are, for example C.sub.(6-13) aromatic hydrocarbon radicals such as phenyl, tolyl, napthyl, anthryl and such radicals substituted with up to 1 to 4 monovalent radicals such as C.sub.(1-8) alkoxy, C.sub.(1-8) alkyl, nitro, chloro, hydroxy, etc.; arylacyl radicals such as phenylacyl, etc.; arylalkyl radicals such as phenyl ethyl; aromatic heterocyclic radicals such as pyridyl, furfuryl, etc. R1 radicals include C.sub.(1-8) alkyl, C.sub.(3-8) cycloalkyl, substituted alkyl such as haloalkyl, for example, chloroethyl; alkoxy alkyl such as --C2 H4 OCH3, etc.; alkylacyl such as --CH2 COOC2 H5 ; ketoalkyl such as --CH2 COCH3, etc. Radicals included by R2 are, for example, ##STR3## where Q' is selected from CH2, --N--, --R--, --S-- and --O--, Z is selected from --O--, --S-- and ##STR4## and R' is a monovalent radical selected from hydrogen and hydrocarbon. Complex anions included by MQe -(e-f) of formula I are, for example, BF4 -, PF6 -, AsF6 -, SbF6 -, SnCl6 -, SbCl6 -, BiCl5 =, etc., where M is more particularly a transition metal such as Sb, Fe, Sn, Bi, Al, Ga, In, Ti, Zr, Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Co, etc., rare earth elements such as the lanthanides, for example, Cd, Pr, Nd, etc., actinides such as Th, Pa, U, Np, etc. and metalloids such as B, P, As, etc.
There are provided by the present invention, radiation polymerizable compositions comprising,
(A) a monomeric or prepolymeric cationically polymerizable organic material free of oxirane oxygen selected from vinyl organic monomers, vinyl organic prepolymers, vinyl organic esters, cyclic organic amines, cyclic organic sulfides and organosilicon cyclics, and
(B) an effective amount of a radiation sensitive aromatic onium salt of a Group Va element capable of effecting the cure of (A) by release of a Lewis Acid catalyst when exposed to radiant energy. Group Va onium salts included by Formula I are,
for example, ##STR5##
The Group Va onium salts of formula I are well known. Some of these compounds can be made by the procedures described by J. Goerdeler, Methoden der Organishen Chimie, 11/12, 591-640 (1958) and K. Sasse, ibid., 12/1, 79-112 (1963).
Included by the vinyl organic monomers which can be used in the practice of the invention to make the polymerizable compositions which are convertible to thermoplastic polymers are, for example, styrene, vinyl acetamide, α-methyl styrene, isobutyl vinylether, n-octyl vinylether, acrolein, 1,1-diphenylethylene, β-pinene; vinyl arenes such as 4-vinyl biphenyl, 1-vinyl pyrene, 2-vinyl fluorene, acenaphthylene, 1 and 2-vinyl naphthylene; 9-vinyl carbazole, vinyl pyrrolidone, 3-methyl-1-butene; vinyl cycloaliphatics such as vinylcyclohexane, vinylcyclopropane, 1-phenylvinylcyclopropane; dienes such as isobutylene, isoprene, butadiene, 1,4-pentadiene, etc.
Some of the vinyl organic prepolymers which can be used to make the polymerizable compositions of the present invention are, for example, CH2 ═CH--O--(CH2 --CH2 O)n --CH═CH2, where n is a positive integer having a value up to about 1000 or higher; multi-functional vinylethers, such as 1, 2, 3-propane trivinyl ether, trimethylolpropane trivinyl ether, prepolymers having the formula, ##STR6## low molecular weight polybutadiene having a viscosity of from 200 to 10,000 centipoises at 25� C., etc. Products resulting from the cure of such compositions can be used as printing inks and other applications typical of thermosetting resins.
A further category of the organic materials which can be used to make the polymerizable compositions are cyclic ethers which are convertible to thermoplastics. Included by such cyclic ethers are, for example, oxetanes such as 3,3-bischloromethyloxetane alkoxyoxetanes as shown by Schroeter U.S. Pat. No. 3,673,216, assigned to the same assignee as the present invention; oxolanes such as tetrahydrofuran, oxepanes, oxygen containing spiro compounds, trioxane, dioxolane, etc.
In addition to cyclic ethers there are also included cyclic esters such as β-lactones, for example, propiolactone, cyclic amines, such as 1,3,3-trimethylazetidine and organosilicon cyclics, for example, materials included by the formula ##STR7## where R" can be the same or different monovalent organic radical such as methyl or phenyl and m is an integer equal to 3 to 8 inclusive. An example of an organosilicon cyclic is hexamethyl trisiloxane, octamethyl tetrasiloxane, etc. The products made in accordance with the present invention are high molecular weight oils and gums.
In particular instances, depending upon the compatability of the onium salt with the organic material, the onium salt can be dissolved or dispersed in an organic solvent such as nitromethane, acetonitrile, etc., prior to its incorporation into the organic material. Experience has shown that the proportion of onium salt to organic material can vary widely inasmuch as the salt is substantially inert, unless activated. Effective results can be achieved, for example, if a proportion of from 0.1% to 15% by weight of onium salt is employed, based on the weight of polymerizable composition. Higher or lower amounts can be used, however, depending upon factors such as the nature of organic material, intensity of radiation, polymerization time desired, etc.
It has been found that the onium salt of formula I also can be generated in situ in the presence of the organic material if desired. For example, an onium salt of the formula
(R)a (R1)b (R2)c X+ Q", (II)
where R, R1, R2, X, a, b and c are as previously defined, and Q" is an anion such as Cl-, Br-, I-, F-, HSO4 - and NO3 -, etc. can be separately or simultaneously introduced into the organic material with a Lewis Acid of the formula,
where M and Q are as previously defined and M' is a metal such as an alkali metal, for example, Na, K, etc., alkaline earth, such as Ca++, Mg++ and organic cations such as quaternary ammonium, pyridinium, etc.
The polymerizable compositions may contain inactive ingredients such as silica fillers, dyes, extenders, viscosity control agents, process aids, etc. in amounts of from up to 100 parts of filler per 100 parts of organic material. The polymerizable compositions of the present invention can be used as molding and extrusion resins, adhesives, caulks, coatings, blood plasma extenders, lubricants, etc.
Polymerization can be achieved by activating the onium salt to provide the release of the Lewis Acid catalyst. Activation of the onium salt can be achieved by heating the composition at a temperature in the range of from 150� C. to 250� C. Preferably polymerization can be achieved by exposing the polymerizable composition to radiant energy such as electron beam or ultraviolet light. Electron beam cure can be effected at an accelerator voltage of from about 100 to 1000 KV. Polymerization is preferably achieved by the use of UV irradiation having a wavelength of from 1849 A to 4000 A. The lamp systems used to generate such radiation can consist of ultraviolet lamps such as from 1 to 50 discharge lamps, for example, xenon, metallic halide, metallic arc, such as a low, medium or high pressure mercury vapor discharge lamp, etc. having an operating pressure of from a few millimeters to about 10 atmospheres, etc., can be employed. The lamps can include envelopes capable of transmitting light of a wavelength preferably of 2400 A to 4000 A. The lamp envelope can consist of quartz, such as Spectrocil or Pyrex, etc. Typical lamps which can be employed for providing ultraviolet radiation are, for example, medium pressure mercury arcs, such as the GE H3T7 arc and the Hanovia 450 W arc lamp. The cures may be carried out with a combination of various lamps, some or all of which can operate in an inert atmosphere. When using UV lamps, the irradiation flux in the substrate can be at least 0.01 watts per square inch to effect polymerization of the organic material within 1 to 20 seconds and permit the reaction to be carried on continuously as, for example, in the curing of multifunctional vinyl ether coated steel strip or paper web to be taken up at a rate of from 100 to 600 feet per minute. The strip can be cut to a predetermined width for use as printed material. A combination of heat and light may be used to cure reactive compositions. Such a combination of heat and light may serve to reduce the overall cure time.
In order that those skilled in the art will be better able to practice the invention, the following examples are given by way of illustration and not by way of limitation. All parts are by weight.
A mixture containing 3% by weight triphenylphenacylphosphonium fluoroborate in ethylene glycol divinyl ether was coated onto a glass plate to form a 2 mil film. The film was subjected to an ultraviolet irradiation of 200 mw/sq in using a GE H3T7 lamp at a distance of four inches from the sample. A clear, hard, tack-free coating was produced after 1.5 minutes. The film could not be removed by rubbing it with acetone.
The same composition was applied to a steel plate as a 0.1 mil coating. In this case, cure took place in one minute. The coated steel could be used to make a transformer core.
To 98 parts diethylene glycol divinyl ether there was added 2 parts of 2,5-dihydroxyphenyltriphenylphosphonium fluoroborate. ##STR8## A thin film of about 1 mil thickness was knife coated onto polystyrene sheet and then cured to a hard tack-free surface in 1 minute. A composite of polystyrene sheet having a mar-free surface was obtained.
A mixture of 2 parts of triphenylphenacylphosphonium hexafluorophosphate, 5 parts carbon black and 93 parts of trimethylolpropane trivinyl ether, was tumbled in a ball mill for 1 hour. It was applied onto a sheet of white paper as a printing ink. After exposing the treated paper to a GE H3T7 medium pressure mercury arc lamp for 30 seconds at a distance of 2 inches, the applied resin was dry and tack-free.
A stack of several 6 in�6 in pieces of glass cloth were separately impregnated with a solution of trimethylolpropane trivinyl ether containing 2% by weight of triphenylphenacylphosphonium hexafluoroarsenate. The stack of treated glass cloth was irradiated for 2 minutes on both sides with a GE H3T7 medium pressure mercury arc lamp at a distance of 4 inches. A cured rigid structure was obtained which could be used as a circuit board base.
A mixture of 10 parts of ethylene glycol divinyl ether, 0.5 part of triphenylphenarylphosphonium bromide, and 2.1 parts sodium hexafluoroarsenate was stirred several hours and allowed to settle. A one mil film of the clear liquid was applied to a glass plate. The resin was irradiated for one minute as described previously in Example 1 to produce a hard, tack-free film on the surface of the glass plate.
A solution of diethylene glycol divinyl ether containing 2% by weight methyldiphenylphenacyl arsonium fluoroborate was coated on a 3 in�6 in steel plate. A perforated mask was then placed over the coating and the coating was exposed to ultraviolet light using a GE H3T7 medium pressure mercury arc lamp at a distance of 2 inches. After 30 seconds exposure, the mask was removed and the plate was washed with i-propanol. A clear, raised negative image of the mask was formed.
