Pseudocomitatenses were a class of regiment in the Late Roman army. Although they were attached to the comitatus (higher-grade mobile armies), they enjoyed lower status and pay to the comitatenses, the regular regiments of the comitatus. This is because their regiments had originally been classified as lower-grade limitanei ("border troops"), but at some point attached to a comitatus for a particular campaign and subsequently retained long-term.

Willing to free up some space or speed-up your applications without uninstalling anything nor tweaking your system?
Apps2ROM is the solution!
Android system is pre-installed on its own space called ROM which is not accessible by end-user. There is usually some wasted free space there?
When you update one of your pre-installed application (say GMail as an example), Android does not really update it but "deprecates" the pre-installed version and installs a new instance in your user space, which causes your available free space to decrease because of some duplicate applications.
What does Apps2ROM do:
- Lists all your applications and indicates their location (System and/or User space).
- Allows you to select user applications you want to move/update to system space.
- Once enabled, on every device boot it will automatically check for selected applications and move them to your system space if found.
- On some devices (mostly stock ROM neo-rooted), the auto-move feature might not work so you can try the "Move now" functionality which is compatible with more devices.
- Removes System application / bloat-ware
- You need to have ROOT access on your phone.
- Not all application like to be moved to system and will cause them to "Force Close". To resolve, remove the app with Apps2ROM and reinstall it from play store. (Adblock Plus is known to create problems).
- If you have a "Not found" error, try installing busybox, restart and retry.
- Some devices are S-ON which means "Security ON" and prevents from writing to system memory. Apps2ROM cannot work on such devices until you find a way to S-OFF your device. This problem have been reported on some HTC devices.
- Never restore Apps2ROM's data with a backup software as it uses ROM-dependent configuration.
- Selected applications are moved during phone boot time (or immediately with the Move Now button)
- Applications moved to system cannot be uninstalled by standard Android uninstaller. You can remove them with Apps2ROM.
- Please read help menu.
Q: Does Apps2ROM immediately move my applications when I enable it?
A: If you select "Move now", yes, and then your device will be restarted. If you Enable Apps2ROM, no, applications are moved during phone boot time in order to prevent instabilities (application disappearing or crashing).
Q: Doesn't Apps2ROM slow-down my phone by checking for updated applications to move?
A: No, Apps2ROM does not launch background process so it will not slow-down your phone. Once you close the application, it stops running and will do its job on phone reboot only.
Q: Why to I need ROOT access?
A: Apps2ROM needs ROOT access in order to write in your system ROM.
Q: Isn't it dangerous to write in system ROM?
A: Just be careful not to fill too much your system ROM. There is a security margin of 10MB that can be lowered in preferences (decrease it at your own risks!).
Q: You said it can speed up applications?
A: It does it indirectly. If you use some Apps2SD program, by freeing some space with Apps2ROM, you might be able to move some applications back to memory which will make them load faster. People using high-end devices with a lot of user memory will most likely not see any benefits.
Q: After restarting my device, applications haven't been moved.
A: Be sure Apps2ROM asked for super user permissions. If you have a stock ROM it most likely won't work. Try the "Move now" functionality. If it still don't work, try installing busybox if you don't already have it. If it still don't work, enable "debug" in advanced preferences and report the exact error to developer.
Q: Where are system and user app located on the my device?
A: System app are stored in /system/app/ and user app usually are in /data/app/
People having problems with Apps2ROM, please consider contacting me before giving a low valuation as you might help me fixing your problem. Thanks

Flashing with Mobile ODIN does NOT increase your custom kernel flash counter or make the yellow warning triangle appear.
Discussion and support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
Flashing with Mobile ODIN is easy. You start by starting the app and the app will check your system has everything it needs to continue (like root). It may need to download an additional package, so it is advised you have Wi-Fi available.
Now you should see the main Mobile ODIN screen. It will list a set of partitions. Clicking a partition will allow you to select a file from your SD card to flash to that partition. Do not worry about selecting the wrong file - Mobile ODIN will not let you. Separate files (named after the partition) as well as .tar and .tar.md5 files are supported.
From the desktop ODIN you may be used to "PDA", "PHONE", and "CSC" buttons. All three of these buttons have been replaced by the "Open file ..." button. This button will open the file you select from the SD card, and find all the partitions it can flash inside that file. So if you select a .tar file containing kernel and modem, the Kernel and Modem partitions will be set up to use that .tar file for flashing.
Now that we have selected what we want to flash, if you have the Pro version you can proceed to the EverRoot section. The EverRoot options allows you to root your firmware while it is being flashed. Never again will you be without root! Select here which apps you want to inject in the firmware that is being flashed.
Now that we are all done selecting partitions and configuring EverRoot, we continue to "Flash firmware". Mobile ODIN will gather all the information it needs and perform the flash. Before starting, however, it will check that your battery level is over 50%, and if applicable offer to verify MD5 checksums on the files you have selected to flash. If all is well, it will reboot into recovery mode, and flash the firmware you have selected.
SetCPU for Root Users
Automate SetCPU with profiles! SetCPU allows you to set up powerful profiles to change your settings under certain conditions, such as what app is running, when the phone is asleep or charging, when the battery level drops below a certain point, when the phone's temperature is too high, or during certain times of day. See the screenshots for examples of how you might set up profiles.
SetCPU's wide feature set make it useful to Android beginners and enthusiasts alike. Accelerate your processor to unleash your phone's true multitasking potential, or dial your CPU's speed down to save battery.
SetCPU also includes a "voltage control" menu, available to certain devices with custom kernels that support it, to control undervolting to save even more battery. Undervolting is only available for certain kernels.
Hey guys! It's good to be back ;) I have been very busy with school for the past year. 3.1.0 is mostly a bug fix release for some standing issues, but expect much more frequent updates from now on.
- Added SUPERUSER permission.
- Fixed a bug where action bar menu items would sometimes not appear for the profiles menu.
- Fixed a bug where voltage items would appear in reverse with some custom kernels.
- Added an open source licenses menu item in About.
Mike "coolbho3k" Huang
Root: SetCPU needs root permissions to modify the CPU speed and other settings.
Read logs: is used for efficient app condition checking. That is currently all it's used for.
Start at boot: SetCPU will start a profiles service at boot, if enabled. It also sets default boot settings, if enabled. SetCPU does not run in the background if profiles are not enabled, and becomes inactive after settings, if any, are applied.
Wake lock: This prevents the phone from sleeping while stress testing and benchmarking.
Write external storage: SetCPU needs to read from and write to the SD card or internal storage to back up profiles.
Read phone state: The "in call" condition needs this to determine if the user is making a phone call or not, and trigger the profile if the user wants to.
[root] Triangle Away
You can find out the current status of your flash counter and firmware state (custom or official) by booting into "download mode" on most devices. The usual way of getting into "download mode" is by first turning off your device, then turning it on by pressing and holding VolDown+(Home)+Power. Alternatively, the "adb reboot download" command also often works.
When you run TriangleAway, if your device and firmware are supported, it will show you the detected state of the binary (custom or official) and flash counter value, and the option to "Reset flash counter". Please confirm that the information shown is correct before resetting the values.
On a number of devices, TriangleAway can work, but your firmware may not be supported directly. In that case, the app will tell you it needs to reboot into a special boot mode, which will be happen if you select "Reset flash counter". The device will reboot into a special mode which will allow you to review the current status and reset the binary and flash counter values (or abort and do nothing). On some devices this will actually trigger the counter to 1 if its 0 - so if you're "just checking", do that in download mode!
( and by brick I mean brick - only a board replacement or a JTAG unit will be able to save you, don't mess with boot(loader) stuff unless you *really* mean it! )
Note#1: using Triangle Away may unmount your SD card. Reboot or manually remount it from Android settings.
Note#2: on new devices status can only be reset on stock firmwares!
Supported devices:
- Sprint Epic 4G Touch
- Korea SHW-M250K/L/S

** Various models are supported depending on firmware, but only the exact models listed are supported regardless of firmware version.
Whether or not Triangle Away works may depend on your kernel, try flashing a different one if it doesn't work.
Please also note that some devices set the counter to 1 at every boot if you are running a custom kernel or recovery. On these devices, Triangle Away may always display 1 - make sure to check the counter in actual download mode.
For discussion and technical details, see the XDA-Developers.com thread here:
Note that this download is also available from that thread completely for free. You can go there and download it for free, or buy me a beer and download it from Play. It is the same program.

Thank you for supporting our work!
Root Checker
This application provides even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator, superuser, or su) access. The application provides a very simple user interface that easily notifies the user whether or not they have properly setup root (superuser) access.
*Feel free to email me with any questions. I always reply!*
This application will test the device for root (superuser) access using a very simple, quick, and reliable method that has been successful for over 10 million Android devices. The su binary is the most common binary used on Android devices to grant and manage root (superuser) access. Root Checker will check and verify that the su binary is located in a standard location on the device. In addition, Root Checker will verify that the su binary is properly functioning in granting root (superuser) access.
Many times users experience issues along the path of installing, configuring, and gaining root access. For some users the process can seem complex while for others the process can seem simple. Regardless of the user's technical skill set, Root Checker, will quickly and correctly verify whether or not root access is 100% functioning. The process of confirming root access is sometimes known by other terms such as, gaining superuser access or gaining administrator access. Root Checker covers all these terms as they relate to one core function, being able to execute commands through the su binary with root access.
If the Superuser management applications (SuperSU, Superuser, etc.) are installed and working properly, these applications will prompt the user to accept or deny the root access request from Root Checker. Accepting the request will allow Root Checker to check for and confirm root access. Denying the request will result in Root Checker reporting no root access.
Please don't leave negative feedback about a concern, bug or issue! Instead, please email me, tweet me, contact me on my web site - https://joeykrim.com/contact, IRC, or on the forums (XDA, RootzWiki, SDX, etc.) with your feedback, suggestions and comments!
I do my best to assist as many people as possible and appreciate all the support that has made this application successful! Thank you!
!!! SuperSU requires a rooted device !!!
SuperSU allows for advanced management of Superuser access rights for all the apps on your device that need root. SuperSU has been built from the ground up to counter a number of problems with other Superuser access management tools.
Features include:
- Superuser access prompt
- Superuser access logging
- Superuser access notifications
- Per-app notification configuration
- Temporary unroot
- Deep process detection (no more unknowns)
- Works in recovery (no more segfaulting)
- Works when Android isn't properly booted
- Works with non-standard shell locations
- Always runs in ghost mode
- Wake on prompt
- Convert to /system app
- Complete unroot
- Backup script to survive CyanogenMod nightlies

- Theme selectable from 4 options
- Launch from dialer: *#*#1234#*#* or *#*#7873778#*#* (*#*#SUPERSU#*#*)
NOTE: Not all phones take both codes. On some phones you need to use single *# instead of double *#*#
The Pro version additionally offers:
- OTA survival mode (no guarantees)
- Full color-coded command content logging (input/output/error)
- Per-app logging configuration
- Per-app user override
- Grant/deny root to an app for a set amount of time
- PIN protection
- Per-app PIN protection
- Adjust auto-deny countdown
The discussion and support thread can be found on XDA-Developers here:
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.
Want to help translate SuperSU ? See http://www.getlocalization.com/supersu/ !
These are completely optional and more like donations. They do not unlock any functionality.

More info on permissions:
• "Internet" is used to access Market,Dropbox,ChangeLog.
• "Accounts" is used to access Market.
Some advice:
• We recommend to avoid "modified" TB versions because they can cause various problems down the road.
This app requires that you already have root, or a custom recovery image to work.
Note: App and binary will have different versions. The app is updated more often than the binary is.
This app cannot be uninstalled if it was installed with your ROM or root. If there is no uninstall option, it's because you placed it in /system/app, not me. It is impossible for an app to be installed in /system/app by the Play store. In fact, the entire /system partition is read only at runtime. The only way for an app to be placed in /system/app is via a rooting process (which usually installs Superuser), or by remounting the system partition as read/write and manually putting it there.
Permissions requested are for:
Internet - updating the binary
External storage - backup/restore for elite users
NFC - creating an allow tag for elite users
Boot completed - fix database on boot
Support request emails that simply say "Doesn't work" or something to that effect are automatically deleted by our stupidity filter and will not be answered.

Root Booster
There are many apps that save battery or increase performance, however Root Booster uses the most proven settings to achive the best results. You can easily apply these settings with preset modes which ensure speed boost, battery boost or stability boost. These modes are achieved by applying appropriate settings to the main phone components. Here are some explanations for what particullary Root Booster does to your CPU, RAM and Android OS system.
Hibernation (Android OS optimizer)
Each Android application can have one or multiple services. They run in the background and usually perform some kind of task. Many people think that when they kill an application, it completely stops draining your battery and computing power, but that's not true. Application still have servicies that are running after killing and still drains battery and comuting power. On the other hand, if you hibernate an application it stop it\'s servicies and application does not drain battery and CPU computing power anymore. Hibernation is gently and efficient way to save your battery and increase performance.
Root Booster will find battery draining and performance demanding applications and auto hibernates them.
CPU (processor governor control)
A governor is a driver for the regulation of CPU frequency. Governor decides how fast and when will be achieved maximal or minimal CPU frequency. Setting apropriate governor makes your device more battery saving, fast or even more stable. However, deciding which governor is suitable is a little bit tricky.
Root Booster can decide which governor you should use and automatically applies the most suitable governor for the selected mode.
RAM (memory manager)
Each application uses VM heap for it 's data and work. The main reason to change the VM heap size is stability improvement. Many big applications need a big amount of memory (VM heap) for their work. If the VM heap size is smaller than the requested memory, it causes an application crash (Out of memory error). Setting heap size is hard task and there is no manual to set up for better performance. Better performance can be only achieved by testing.
Root boster will test your RAM and sets up your VM heap size for better stability and performance.
Note: Root Booster is designed to work only with rooted devices
Root Cleaner
Root Cleaner is simple and effective application which a lot increases your peformance by cleaning your root system. You can choose between quick cleaning and full cleaning. Quick cleaning cleans your memory, file cache, drop caches, leftovers, etc. and you can do that without reboot. Full cleaning requires reboot, but it makes really total maintenance of your whole root system. Full cleaning is also great when you want to flash other ROM or kernel, so it will clean your device to prevent any problem. Root Cleaner also contains feature for uninstalling, clearing data and freezing or unfreezing your system and non-system applications. Root Cleaner makes your device as fast as possible just by clicking one button. If you are not satisfied with Root Cleaner you have full money back guarantee.

An efficient and effective method for treating tissue making stock to make soft tissues involves adding a softening agent to a first papermaking furnish of short fibers, such as eucalyptus fibers. A second papermaking furnish of long fibers, such as softwood fibers, is blended with the short fiber furnish. Thereafter, wet strength agents and/or dry strength agents are added to the blended furnish. The treated furnish is then fed to a headbox and processed into soft tissue in any suitable manner.
1. A method of treating a papermaking furnish for making soft tissue comprising:
(a) adding about 0.005 weight percent or greater of a softening agent to a first papermaking furnish comprising primarily hardwood pulp fibers having an average length of about 1 millimeter or less; (b) blending the first papermaking furnish with a second papermaking furnish comprising primarily softwood papermaking fibers having an average length greater than about 1 millimeter; and (c) adding to the blended furnish one or more strengthening agents selected from the group consisting of dry strength agents in an amount of about 0.05 weight percent or greater and wet strength agents in an amount of about 0.05 weight percent or greater.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the softening agent is an imidazoline quaternary compound.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein the first papermaking furnish consists essentially of hardwood papermaking fibers.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein the second papermaking furnish consists essentially of softwood fibers.
5. The method of claim 1 wherein a dry strength agent and a wet strength agent are sequentially added to the blended furnish.
6. The method of claim 5 wherein the strength agent having the lower charge density is added to the blended first.
7. The method of claim 6 wherein the dry strength agent is added to the blended furnish before the wet strength agent is added to the blended furnish.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the dry strength agent is an amphoteric starch.
9. The method of claim 8 wherein the wet strength agent is a glyoxalated polyacrylamide.
The use of softening and strengthening agents in the manufacture of tissues, such as facial and bath tissue, is common practice in the industry. These tissues typically contain a blend of relatively long fibers, which are usually softwood fibers, and relatively short fibers, which are usually hardwood fibers. The softening and strengthening agents may be separately added to these different fiber species prior to blending the fibers together and forming the tissue web. The softening agent is added to the short fibers since the short fibers primarily contribute to tissue softness. The long fibers are separately treated with strengthening agents (wet and dry) and refining. Both refining and strengthening agents are used because excessive use of either treatment may have an adverse effect on the tissue making process and/or the resulting tissue product.
However, the conventional method of adding strengthening agents to the long fibers can have some disadvantages. In one case, combining strengthening agents with refining in the same locale can cause poor efficiency. If strengthening agents are added prior to refining, shear forces may strip the attached strengthening agent from the fiber. If strengthening agents are added directly after refining, the strengthening agents preferentially attach to fines generated by refining, thus reducing the chemical efficiency.
In addition, adding the strengthening agents to the long fiber in the conventional manner results in a long dwell time for the strengthening agent to reach the headbox. Very often changes in rates of addition are needed to maintain basesheet specifications. By adding the strengthening agents too far back in the system, there exists a greater probability of the product being outside targeted specifications for a longer period of time, resulting in higher waste and delay on the tissue machine.
Therefore there is a need for a more efficient method of utilizing softening agents and strengthening agents in the manufacture of tissues.
It has now been discovered that an especially soft tissue can be produced by the selective and sequential addition of chemical softening and strengthening agents to tissue. More specifically, one or more softening agents are added to the short fiber furnish prior to blending the short fibers with the long fibers. Once blended, the entire furnish is treated with dry strength and wet strength additives, formed, dewatered, and dried to produce a tissue product with adequate strength, absorbency, and superior softness. Refining of the long fiber can be minimized to maximize bulk development. The process, involving relatively low capital costs, is easily incorporated into conventional wet-pressed and throughdried assets to make single-ply or multi-ply tissue products.
Hence in one aspect, the invention resides in a method of treating a papermaking furnish comprising: (a) adding a softening agent to a first papermaking furnish comprising primarily short papermaking fibers; (b) blending the first papermaking furnish with a second papermaking furnish comprising primarily long papermaking fibers; and (c) adding one or more dry strength agents and/or one or more wet strength agents to the blended furnish.
The dry strength agent(s) and the wet strength agent(s) can be added in any order, although first adding the strengthening agent having the lower charge density is preferred to enhance its substantivity to the fibers. Charge density correlates with the ability of the strengthening agent to adhere to the fibers. The determination of charge density is referred to in "Microparticle Retention-Aid Systems" by A. Swerin et al., Paper Technology, Vol. 33, No. 12, pp. 28-29, December 1992, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
As used herein, "short" papermaking fibers are papermaking fibers having an average length of about 1 millimeter or less. Short papermaking fibers include most of the hardwood species such as eucalyptus, maple, birch, aspen, and the like. "Long" papermaking fibers are those papermaking fibers having an average length greater than about 1 millimeter, which includes the softwood species such as northern and southern pine. It is preferred that the first papermaking furnish comprise at least 75 weight percent short fibers and, more specifically, substantially all short fibers. Similarly, it is preferred that the second papermaking furnish comprise at least 75 weight percent long fibers and, more specifically, substantially all long fibers.
Suitable softening agents for treating the first (short) fiber furnish include a range of chemistries that contribute a soft, silky, smooth, velvety, fluffy, lotiony, cushiony, quilted, delicate, satiny, and soothing feel to the tissue. These agents include, but are not limited to: imidazoline quaternaries; ester quaternaries; phospholipids; silicone phospholipids; silicone quaternaries; quaternized lanolin derivatives; hydrolyzed wheat protein/polydimethyl siloxane; hydrolyzed wheat protein/dimethicone phosphocopolyol copolymer; organoreactive polysiloxanes; nonionic surfactants, such as alkylphenol ethoxylates, aliphatic alcohol ethoxylates, fatty acid alkoxylates, fatty alcohol alkoxylates, and block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide; condensation products of ethylene oxide with the product resulting from the reaction of propylene oxide and ethylenediamine; condensation products of propylene oxide with the product of the reaction of ethylene oxide and ethylenediamine; semipolar nonionic surfactants, such as water soluble amine oxides; alkylpolysaccharides, such as alkylpolyglycosides; fatty acid amide surfactants; polyhydroxy compounds, including glycerol, polyethylene glycols, and polypropylene glycols having a weight average molecular weight from 200 to 4000; quaternized protein compounds; silicone emulsions and silicone glycols.
The amount of softening agent added to the first furnish can be any amount that is effective in increasing the softness of the resulting tissue and will depend on the particular softening agent selected and the desired softness effect. Nevertheless, suitable amounts of softening agent, based on the dry weight of fiber, can be about 0.005 weight percent or greater, more specifically from about 0.1 to about 1.0 weight percent, and still more specifically from about 0.3 to about 0.7 weight percent.
Dry strength agents that can be used include, without limitation, any type of starch, starch derivatives, gums, polyacrylamide resins, and carboxymethyl celluloses.
The amount of dry strength agent added to the blended furnish can be any amount that is effective in increasing the dry strength of the resulting tissue and will depend on the particular dry strength agent selected and the desired strength effect. Nevertheless, suitable amounts of dry strength agent can be, based on the dry weight of fiber, about 0.05 weight percent or greater, more specifically from about 0.1 to about 1.0 weight percent, and still more specifically from about 0.3 to about 0.5 weight percent.
Suitable wet strength agents include both permanent and temporary wet strength additives. Such wet strength agents include, without limitation, polyamine amide epichlorohydrin, urea-formaldehyde resins, melamine-formaldehyde resins, glyoxalated polyacrylamide resins, polyethyleneimene resins, dialdehyde starch, cationic aldehyde starch, cellulose xanthate, synthetic latexes, glyoxal, acrylic emulsions, and amphoteric starch siloxanes.
The amount of wet strength agent added to the blended furnish can be any amount that is effective in increasing the wet integrity of the resulting tissue and will depend on the particular wet strength agent selected and the desired strength effect. Nevertheless, suitable amounts of wet strength agent, based on the dry weight of fiber, can be about 0.05 weight percent or greater, more specifically from about 0.1 to about 3.0 weight percent, and still more specifically from about 0.3 to about 1.0 weight percent.
FIG. 1 is a schematic flow diagram of a stock prep system useful for the purposes of this invention.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a tissue making process useful for carrying out the method of this invention.
FIG. 1 is a schematic flow diagram of a stock prep system useful in the practice of this invention. Shown are a first furnish of short fibers and a second furnish of long fibers being fed to low consistency hydrapulpers which disperse dry lap pulp and broke into individual fibers. Pulping typically occurs between 4-5% consistency. Both pulpers run continuously in a batch format to supply long and short fiber to the tissue machine. Once a batch of fiber is completed, it is pumped to a dump chest and diluted to 3-4% consistency. The short fiber furnish is not refined and is transferred directly to a clean stock chest and diluted to a consistency of about 2-3%. The clean stock chest is maintained at a constant level allowing continuous feed of a softening agent as shown to enhance the tactile properties of the finished product. The long fiber furnish, after being completely dispersed in the pulper, is pumped to a dump chest and diluted to 3-4% consistency. Thereafter the long fiber furnish is transferred to a refiner where a low level of refining (typically no-load) is applied to the long fiber to impart some sheet strength without deteriorating bulk and stiffening the tissue.
Both the short fiber and the long fiber furnishes are blended in the machine chest in a pre-determined short fiber/long fiber ratio, typically about 60% short fiber and about 40% long fiber. The consistency in the machine chest is about 2-3%. Machine broke can also be metered into the machine chest as well. The proportion of broke is dictated by performance specifications and current broke storage levels.
Once the two fiber furnishes are blended, the stock is pumped from the machine chest to a low density cleaner which decreases the stock consistency to 0.6%. At any convenient point after the two furnishes have been blended, such as between the machine chest and the low density cleaner, the dry and wet strength agents can be added sequentially to improve the sheet integrity. The sequence of addition will often depend on the polymeric charge densities of each material. If the charge densities are significantly different, it is preferable to first add the material having the lower charge density.
The blended stock is further diluted to about 0.1% at the fan pump prior to entering the headbox.
FIG. 2 is a schematic flow diagram of a conventional wet-press tissue making process useful in the practice of this invention, although other tissue making processes can also benefit from the stock prep method of this invention, such as throughdrying or other non-compressive tissue making processes. The specific formation mode illustrated in FIG. 2 is commonly referred to as a crescent former, although many other formers well known in the papermaking art can also be used. Shown is a headbox 21, a forming fabric 22, a forming roll 23, a paper making felt 24, a press roll 25, a yankee dryer 26, and a creping blade 27. Also shown, but not numbered, are various idler or tension rolls used for defining the fabric runs in the schematic diagram, which may differ in practice. As shown, the headbox 21 continuously deposits a blended stock jet between the forming fabric 22 and felt 24, which is partially wrapped around the forming roll 23. Water is removed from the aqueous stock suspension through the forming fabric by centrifugal force as the newly-formed web traverses the arc of the forming roll. As the forming fabric and felt separate, the wet web stays with the felt and is transported to the yankee dryer 26.
At the yankee dryer, the creping chemicals are continuously applied on top of the adhesive remaining after creping in the form of an aqueous solution. The solution is applied by any conventional means, preferably using a spray boom which evenly sprays the surface of the dryer with the creping adhesive solution. The point of application on the surface of the dryer is immediately following the creping doctor 27, permitting sufficient time for the spreading and drying of the film of fresh adhesive.
The wet web is applied to the surface of the dryer by means of a pressing roll with an application force typically of about 200 pounds per square inch (psi). The incoming web is nominally at about 10% consistency (range from about 8 to 20%) at the time it reaches the pressure roll. Following the pressing and dewatering step, the consistency of the web is at or above about 30%. Sufficient yankee dryer steam power and hood drying capability are applied to this web to reach a final moisture content of about 2.5% or less.
A soft, absorbent bath tissue product was made in accordance with this invention using the overall process of FIG. 2. More specifically, a first papermaking furnish consisting of eucalyptus hardwood fiber (short fibers) was treated with an imidazoline softening agent (methyl-1-oleyl amidoethyl-2-olyel imidazolinium methylsulfate, identified as C-6027, commercially available from Witco Corporation). The softening agent was added in the form of an aqueous mixture having approximately 1 percent solids. The addition rate was 0.11 weight percent based on dry fiber in the final tissue. At the point of addition, the eucalyptus thick stock was at about 2.5 percent solids. In the machine chest, a second papermaking furnish consisting of northern softwood kraft fiber was blended together with the treated first furnish at the same consistency. The resulting blended furnish contained about 60 dry weight percent eucalyptus fibers and about 40 dry weight percent northern softwood kraft fibers.
After the two furnishes were blended together, an amphoteric starch dry strength agent (Redi-Bond 2038, commercially available from National Starch and Chemical Company) and a glyoxalated polyacrylamide temporary wet strength agent (Parez 631-NC, commercially available from Cytec Industries, Inc.) were sequentially added to the blended furnish. The Parez 631-NC was added as a 6 percent aqueous mixture. The addition rate was 0.16 weight percent based on dry fiber. The Redi-Bond 2038 was added as a 1 percent mixture with water and the addition rate was 0.16 weight percent based on dry fiber. The resulting furnish was diluted to a consistency of about 0.6 dry weight percent.
The blended furnish was then further diluted to about 0.1 weight percent based on dry fiber, fed to a headbox and deposited from the headbox onto a multi-layer polyester forming fabric to form the tissue web. The web was then transferred from the forming fabric to a conventional wet-pressed carrier felt. The water content of the sheet on the felt just prior to transfer to the Yankee dryer was about 88 percent. The sheet was transferred to the Yankee dryer with a vacuum pressure roll. Nip pressure was about 230 pounds per square inch. Sheet moisture after the pressure roll was about 45 percent. The adhesive mixture sprayed onto the Yankee surface just before the pressure roll consisted of 40% polyvinyl alcohol, 40 percent polyamide resin and 20 percent quaternized polyamido amine. The spray application rate was about 5.5 pounds of dry adhesive per ton of dry fiber. A natural gas heated hood partially around the Yankee had a supply air temperature of 533 degrees Fahrenheit to assist in drying. Sheet moisture after the creping blade was about 1.5 percent. Machine speed of the 200 inch wide sheet was 4500 feet per minute. The crepe ratio was 1.27, or 27 percent. The resulting tissue was plied together and lightly calendered with two steel rolls at 10 pounds per lineal inch. The two-ply product had the dryer side plied to the outside. When converted, the finished basis weight of the two-ply bath tissue at TAPPI standard temperature and humidity was 22.0 pounds per 2880 square feet.

High School Sports
Arizona high school wrestling setting the standard for years to come
The wrestling scene at the Fargodome has to been seen, not explained, to fully appreciate the experience.
It's wrestling at its best — in more ways than one.
Of course, it is where just about all of the nation's top-ranked wrestlers head each July, while also exposing wrestlers of all different levels to a glimpse of what the elite level looks like.
It is also where big names in wrestling — Dan Gable, Danny Hodge, etc. — congregate each year to check in on the next generation of grapplers at the Cadet and Junior National Championships in Fargo, N.D.
The competition in both age groups — cadet and junior — and both disciplines — Greco-Roman and freestyle — brings the packed Fargodome to its feet at times, creating an energy that engulfs the entire crowd.
It used to be overwhelming for Arizona competitors. The group would come back with plenty of experience but very little in the terms of hardware.
There were the rare exceptional individuals through the years, but the new team approach has pushed Arizona into the top tier of states in recent years, including a record 13 All-Americans last season.
The mark didn't last long as Team Arizona, highlighted by Ironwood Ridge's (Tucson) Danny Vega pulling off the triple crown, set a record this year with 15 All-Americans.
"It's a good group of kids that we've been working with for a long time since they were schoolboy age," Thunder coach and Arizona USA Wrestling executive David Gonzalez said. "This is years of them working hard and the kids pulling for each other. They are a team now. Rivalries have been put aside and it truly is Team Arizona."
Before last year, there were only 10 Fargo national champions from Arizona, and none since 2004, until Vega won No. 11.
That total is now up to 16 as Vega won the Junior freestyle and Greco-Roman titles at 106 pounds, Sunnyside's (Tucson) Roman Bravo-Young won titles in both styles at 100 pounds in Cadet and Chandler sophomore Jason Holmes won the Cadet freestyle title at 88 pounds.
Vega also won the Junior Folkstyle Nationals crown in April in Cedar Falls, Iowa, to round out the rare triple crown.
He is the first Arizona wrestler to accomplish the feat at a level higher than the novice age group.
"I've thought about winning the triple crown for a long time, but I'd never won Iowa until this year," Vega said. "After that, it became a real goal. I was going to do everything I could to make it happen."
The Southeast Valley had several All-Americans as Combs' (San Tan Valley) Ted Rico finished second in Greco-Roman (126, Junior), Mountain View's (Mesa) Weston Taylor (160, Junior) was fifth in Greco, Desert Vista's (Phoenix) Jeremiah Imonode was eighth at 182 in Junior Greco, Seton Catholic's (Chandler) Quentin Hovis (126, Cadet) was second in Greco and Desert Vista's Chad Porter (170, Cadet) was eighth.
A lot was accomplished, and Imonode earned All-American status for the second time after moving up an age group this year.
"Placing at Cadet is good, but when you place at Junior, people notice you," he said. "I want to do something in wrestling and not just be a wrestler. Placing here opens some doors as far as college goes, and it just shows I am heading down the right path."
Porter had a solid freshman year on varsity for the Thunder, but returning to Arizona as an All-American gives him the confidence to be even stronger.
"It is so cool here," said Porter, who qualified for the first time. "Everyone is watching and there is a pressure to perform. It's a big tournament and it is a big accomplishment."
Porter also noticed a team atmosphere that surprised him. The whole Arizona contingent would move closer to the mat where an Arizona kid was wrestling, especially during the finals for competitors like Vega, Bravo and Holmes.
"We usually have 20 to 30 guys going crazy in our corner," he said. "It was crazy when those guys won. I want to be the guy everyone is watching in the finals. That's a goal of mine."

India's Wayward Words
India's recent war of words with Pakistan has been a strategic mistake.
India's recent war of words with Pakistan has been a strategic mistake.

Watch: Animal Collective debuts trippy 'Today's Supernatural' video
Working with the same visuals director over and over again, Animal Collective get to play around with their strong suits and are allowed to experiment. Their suits in "Today's Supernatural" are clown suits, and a Chinese dragon.
The Danny Perez-helmed full-length-movie-thing "ODDSAC" was a good example of how the members of the New York band sort of ooze and bolt in and out of their own tracks, musically and visually. There was a lot of similar electricity and tech-y weirdness that shows up in this track -- culled from AC's forthcoming full-length "Centipede Hz" -- and it works. The desert pastels and decadent styling enhance this upbeat ode, which is about as close to "pop music" as Animal Collective really gets.
