Product Description

Publisher's Description
Who are the young unchurched, and how can they be reached with the good news of Jesus Christ?
In a poll result highlighted by CNN Headline News and USA Today, nearly half of nonchurchgoers between the ages of twenty and twenty-nine agreed with the statement, "Christians get on my nerves." Now, researchers behind the larger study present Lost and Found, a blend of dynamic hard data and modern day parable that tells the real story of an unchurched generation that is actually quite spiritual and yet circumspect, open to Jesus but not the church.
As such, Lost and Found is written to the church, using often-surprising results from the copious research here to strike another nerve and break some long established assumptions about how to effectively engage the lost. Leading missiologist Ed Stetzer and his associates first offer a detailed investigation of the four younger unchurched types. With a better understanding of their unique experiences, they next clarify the importance each type places on community, depth of content, social responsibility, and making cross-generational connections in relation to spiritual matters.
Most valuably, Lost and Found finds the churches that have learned to reach unchurched young adults by paying close attention to those key markers vetted by the research. Their exciting stories will make it clear how your church can bring searching souls from this culture to authentic faith in Christ.
Those who are lost can indeed be found. Come take a closer look.

How would you tell your spouse of 20 years it's over? The feelings have been gone long time ago. It's time to go forward
I wouldn,t Do you remember the vows you said on your wedding day..for better for worse,,Iv,e been married 22 yrs live in a marriage without sex yet I made a promise That person has banked there life on you put up with your **** as much as you hers nothing is perfect,, you need some one on the side so be it but tell her so,,if not buck up and live out your responcebility how would ou take it if she did the same to you
Anything less than an honest approach is game playing. Just tell him, if he is dangerous, get a lawyer to serve him papers and you stay safe. If you know that it's over, don't play games, it's not fair to anyone.
Feelings arent gone. Yall just got bored. Maybe you should step out of the rat race and travel.
Well yea sounds like each self is going through something. if both people focused on self and what makes self happy. You might find that it is not who you love. But who can share love equally in a relationship. This is the same in every relationship. Someone cant make you happy. one must make self happy. Then use there forgiveness and acceptance skills on at least one being. Same with friends and relatives.
wow. thank you for thanking me.
Just be honest. That's all you can do.
Ask my dad.
I walked into the room sat down beside him and just told him...We both agreed we needed to be apart...He now wants me back and This will never happen I am soooo done I will always love him but I don't like him at all...We were married 21 years..
You will find you have more strength than you think you have...good Luck and what ever you do be Happy
I know this was a long time ago - but what happened (I guess I am in a similar place). I know I should say something but sure when - keep waiting for the right time - but guess there isn't a right time.
Yea, seriously.. theres really not much else to say...

This is the motel zip front skirt, It comes in this punky floral print and looks great worn with a vest or tee tucked in. This skirt is made from jersey that is quite thick but still has a lot of stretch so it is comfortable to wear and still looks drop dead gorgeous.
This iddy biddy skirt looks great worn here with the motel bow back tee, but if your less daring it would still look great worn with a black vest and black leggings.

Cherry Chocolate Coffee Cake
|Frozen sweet cherries
|2 Cup (32 tbs) (Unsweetened)
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Unsweetened black cherry soft drink mix
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Ground nutmeg
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Skim milk
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Dry yeast
|1⁄4 Ounce (1 Package)
|Warm water
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Granulated sugar
|2⁄3 Cup (10.67 tbs)
|Solid shortening
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Baking unsweetened cocoa
|1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs)
|All purpose flour
|2 1⁄2 Cup (40 tbs)
|2 Teaspoon, melted
Place frozen cherries in a 1 qt. (1 L) microwave measuring cup.
Heat in microwave on medium for 2 minutes.
Stir and then continue heating on medium for another 2 minutes.
Cherries should be thawed but not hot.
Use a scissors to cut cherries into pieces. (If cherries are hot, allow to cool before stirring in cornstarch.) Stir in cornstarch, soft drink mix powder, and nutmeg.
Place back in microwave and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on medium-high or until mixture is very thick and clear.
Set aside to cool completely.
Meanwhile, pour skim milk in small saucepan.
Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and allow to cool.
Dissolve the yeast in the warm water.
Combine skim milk, yeast mixture, sweetener, shortening, egg, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Combine the cocoa with 1 1/4 c. (310 mL) of flour in another bowl.
Stir to mix.
Add to liquid mixture in bowl.
Beat on low until mixture is blended and smooth.
Add remaining flour and stir until all the flour is incorporated into the dough.
Turn out onto a lightly floured surface; then knead for 4 to 5 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
Place in a greased bowl, turn dough over, cover, and allow to rise until double in size (about 1 1/2 hours).
Punch dough down and roll into a 25 x 12 in. (62 x 30 cm) rectangle.
Place dough on a well greased cookie sheet.
Make 3 in. (7.5 cm) diagonal cuts at 1 in.
(2.5 cm) intervals on the 25 in. (62 cm) side of the rectangle with a scissors.
Spread cherry filling down the middle of the coffee-cake dough.
Crisscross cut strips at an angle over filling, overlapping the strips so that they are about 1 in. (2.5 cm) apart.
Cover Coffeecake with plastic wrap, then a towel.
Allow to rise until double in size (about 45 to 60 minutes).
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25 to 30 minutes or until done.
While warm, brush with melted margarine.

this was a business sales tax audit after three years in business 1998 to 2001. I worked out a deal to pay 1500 a month until paid. after about 15 mo. my business failed and I no longer could pay any bills. the state still wanted there money. after speaking with sales tax collection supervisor, he said that since I had paid over 12 months of payments in good faith before the bus failed it was the now a dischargble debt. he said he would deny he said it but that it would stop the collections. there have been no collection and no release. this is a big problem trying to buy a home.
Tax Lawyer
Sometimes sales taxes are dischargable and sometimes not. You need to consult a local bankruptcy attorney and present him or her with all the details of the audit. The bankruptcy attorney will easily be able to tell if they are dischargable.

InnoDB's multi-versioning handling can be Achilles' heel
I believe InnoDB storage engine architecture is great for a lot of online workloads, however, there are no silver bullets in technology and all design choices have their trade offs. In this blog post I'm going to talk about one important InnoDB limitation that you should consider. InnoDB is a multiversion concurrency control (MVCC) storage […]
How to deal with MySQL deadlocks
A deadlock in MySQL happens when two or more transactions mutually hold and request for locks, creating a cycle of dependencies. In a transaction system, deadlocks are a fact of life and not completely avoidable. InnoDB automatically detects transaction deadlocks, rollbacks a transaction immediately and returns an error. It uses a metric to pick the […]
Innodb Table Locks
Innodb uses row level locks right ? So if you see locked tables reported in SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS you might be confused and rightfully so as Innodb table locking is a bit more complicated than traditional MyISAM table locks. Let me start with some examples. First lets run SELECT Query:
---TRANSACTION 12303, ACTIVE 26 sec
mysql tables in use 2, locked 0
MySQL thread id 53038, OS thread handle 0x7ff759b22700, query id 3918786 localhost root Sending data
select count(*) from sbtest,sbtest x
Trx read view will not see trx with id >= 12304, sees < 12301
As you can […]
InnoDB's gap locks
One of the most important features of InnoDB is the row level locking. This feature provides better concurrency under heavy write load but needs additional precautions to avoid phantom reads and to get a consistent Statement based replication. To accomplish that, row level locking databases also acquire gap locks. What is a Phantom Read A […]
Table locks in SHOW INNODB STATUS
Quite frequently I see people confused what table locks reported by SHOW INNODB STATUS really mean. Check this out for example:
---TRANSACTION 0 4872, ACTIVE 32 sec, process no 7142, OS thread id 1141287232
2 lock struct(s), heap size 368
MySQL thread id 8, query id 164 localhost root
TABLE LOCK table `test/t1` trx id 0 4872 lock mode IX
This output gives us an impression Innodb has taken table lock on test/t1 table and many people tend to think Innodb in fact in some circumstances would abandon its row level locking and […]
The perils of InnoDB with Debian and startup scripts
Are you running MySQL on Debian or Ubuntu with InnoDB? You might want to disable /etc/mysql/debian-start. When you run /etc/init.d/mysql start it runs this script, which runs mysqlcheck, which can destroy performance. It can happen on a server with MyISAM tables, if there are enough tables, but it is far worse on InnoDB. There are […]

Sales Writer, Copywriter - 95 pct. of clients from NA & UK
Poland - Last active: 1 day ago - Tests: 4 - Portfolio: 3
There are only 3 characteristics of high-converting copy that completely turn around a business's sales. And here they are: clearly explains your sales proposition, builds trust and puts your product's features and benefits that your audience can't live without right at the front gate, where everybody can see it. If that's what you're looking for, you're in the right place. 95% of my clients come from the United States, Canada or UK and all of them love the sales letters they get from me, even though I'm not a native. No wonder - I've been communicating with English natives day after day for 6 years now. What it means for YOU is that your copy won't be anything but flawless. Getting started on a project with me is pretty simple, if you're interested in hearing about the most lucrative angles you could approach your project from, I simply invite you to get in touch with me. The simplest way to do so would be quick Skype conversation - I'll ask you some basic questions to nail down the most important things about your project and determine the writing tone that suits your brand best. By then I'd be ready to give you some concrete ideas on how we could supercharge your sales. The conversation won't take more than 15 minutes. Just message me your Skype ID - I'll add you so we can schedule a call. Best, Arthur P. S The "Verified" stamp under my English skill level in the Languages tab on the right indicates that the clients that have finished contracts with me verified me as fluent with the language. Additional skills you might need: •Basic understanding of SEO. Targeting certain keywords with your page? Let me know. I'll include them in the right places. • If your project calls for technical language, I'd be able to write content that your tech-oriented audience can relate to. I've come across and used the following - C++, PHP, HTML/CSS, servers and algorithms. Just let me know what do you need.

Hi, My name is Dan. Over the past eleven years I have been involved in various capacities in the research, establishment and operation of a number of businesses, predominantly within the financial planning, telecommunications, wholesale and retail sectors. Business is my passion. From the very initial contemplation of a potential venture, to nurturing and developing the idea to a stage where research can be done regarding its feasibility, to taking the idea to market for trial, and then operating and optimising its potential, the business process enthrals me. I believe that I have gained a skill set, which has enabled me to make informed entrepreneurial decisions based on effective research and the ability to think and analyse information objectively and critically. Having had sales and marketing experience from the 'ground up' with a range of products from $1 fishing floats through to $500k software packages has enabled me to identify target markets for products and services, develop and identify purchasing imperatives, and establish effective price points, which are both realistic and profitable. Working with business partners, staff, managers, clients of all varying cultures, personalities, experience and expertise has taught me how to operate effectively both independently and within team environments, including task management and prioritisation, time management, opportunity and risk analysis, and conflict management and resolution. Managing international, cultural and lingual differences has become part of my business routine when organising products for shipment from various companies. In a nutshell, I have moved away from full-time employment in pursuit of a more freelance role helping others in their businesses. I would class myself as a business all-rounder in terms of my experience. Please feel free to contact me for a further discussion if I can be of assistance.

PATENTEfl'wszz ma f N VEN TORS WAL J PA C/OREK RANDOLPH Nap T iQ azmoaw A TTORNE Y5 CONTROLLED FRAGRANCE RELEASE DEVICE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to means for controllably retaining and releasing volatile organic materials and to a method of making such a means.
The concept of gradually releasing a volatile fragrance over an extended period of time has long been known. U.S. Pat. No. 2,169,055, for example, dis closes mixing essential oils into cellulose acetate solution, forming films or sheets, and evaporating the solvent; the essential oils then slowly volatilize. French Pat. No. 1,558,480 discloses much the same type of product, employing a thermoplastic resin such as a plasticized polyvinyl chloride and incorporating the essential oil in fine porous silica powder. Neither of these 'patentees provides a product which is effective with shallow pan and noting its changing .aroma from time to time.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,055,297 describes a microporous product containing inks, medicaments and various other liquids in the pores; this product tends to weep when subjected to pressure and is not suitable for manufacture in thin layers. U.S. Pat. No. 3,318,769 also describes a relatively thick structure formed of vinyl plastisol and containing a low-volatility pesticide,
the manufacturing method precluding the use of extremely volatile materials or the preparation of thin layers.
The only practical way to prevent undesired release of the volatile component in each of the prior artstructures described above is to place the object in a sealed container; release then continues only until the air in the container is saturated with the volatile component. There are, however, obvious drawbacks to this method of controlling release, particularly expense and inconvenience.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,494,505 discloses a fragrance sampling means in which fragrance-containing microcapsules are coated on the back of a strip of tape, rupture of the capsules releasing the fragrance. Although the fragrance is successfully retained in the capsules for a long period of time, some skill is required to rupture the capsules, and substantially all the fragrance is immediately released when the capsules are ruptured.
SUMMARY The invention provides a simple and convenient way of retaining even extremely volatile organic substances for long periods of time, releasing them promptly when desired, terminating the release easily, and repeating the cycle many times. The product is simple, compact, and inexpensive, lending itself to incorporation in magazine advertising. A wide variety of volatile substances can be utilized, e.g., volatile fungicides, herbi-' cides, insecticides, algicides, fertilizers, medicaments, topical anaesthetics, rubefacients, perfumes, vapor phase corrosion inhibitors, food fragrances, animal repellents or attractants, etc. Complex and extremely volatile fragrances may be utilized and released at such a rate that the volatilized fragrance remains substantially constant in composition. Compositions which are susceptible to oxidation or decomposition when exposed to the atmosphere are protected at such times as their detectable presence is not desired, and there is no necessity for including preservatives, which often have a competing anddistracting odor of their own.
In its simplest form,- the invention is a composite laminar sheet structure comprising (1) a base ply having a low vapor transmission rate, (2) a comparatively thin layer of a plasticized vinyl resin containing the selected volatile organic material and (3) a flexible. continuous, extremely smooth, removable, replaceable cover sheet ply having a low vapor transmission rate. The vapor transmission rate of the base ply and cover sheet ply is conveniently determined with ethyl acetate at 40 C., the rate being less than 0.5 gram per 100 square inches per 24 hours.
The vinyl plastisol resin layer is comparatively soft and has an almost mirror-smooth surface, permitting it to wet and display almost molecular adhesion to smooth surfaces such as the cover sheet ply, which can be peeled away and replaced when desired. The resin layer is on the order of 1-50 mils thick, visually homogeneous, and formed of 20-80 parts by weight of plastisol grade vinyl chloride homopolymer or vinyl chloridezvinyl acetate copolymer, 8020 parts of plasticizer and an effective amount of the volatile organic substance. This substance, which should not exceed 35 percent by weight of the blend if it is not itself a plasticizer for the vinyl resin, must be compatible with and not reactive with the plasticizer. If more than 35 percent by weight of a nonplasticizing fragrance is included, the surface of the fused plastisol layer tends to feel greasy and the consistency tends to become cheesy; further, the fused layer may become opaque,
I limiting its usefulness. None of the components of the plastisol resin layer should attack either the base or the cover sheet ply.
-Plasticizers for vinyl chloride resins are well known, including esters of abietic, adipic, azelaic, benzoic, citric, fumaric, isophthalic, lauric, oleic, pelargonic, phosphoric, phthalic, ricinoleic, sebacic, stearic and sulfonic acids, as well as derivatives of chlorinated biphenyls, epoxys, glycol esters, mellitates, chlorinated paraffins, phenoxys, polyesters and styrenes. As in dicated above, certain volatile materials are themselves plasticizers. For use in the present invention, effective plasticizers are those which dissolve or are miscible with the volatile component and which when blended with the other components of the system, have a boiling point above the fusion temperature of the vinyl polymer. When the volatile component is a fragrance, there is the further requirement that the plasticizer have a low background odor.
A convenient way of making a structure in accordance with the invention comprises mixing the vinyl resin, plasticizer and volatile organic substance to form a smooth dispersion, introducing the dispersion between two smooth sheets which have low vapor permeability but, which differ in their affinity for the dispersion, subjecting the exposed faces of the sheet to pressure to reduce the thickness of the sandwiched blend to the desired figure, and heating the resultant laminate to fuse the dispersion. Since the fused product should be substantially free from large bubbles, foam, macroporosity or anything which would cause the surface contacting the smooth sheet to be noticeably irregular, components which boil at or below the fusion temperature should be avoided.
Especially in those forms of the invention where fragrance is critical, any components which contribute an aroma other than that intended should be avoided. The addition of such odor-free materials as finely divided silica, however, increases permeability and thus facilitates replacement of fragrance which is volatilized from the surface with fragrance which is deeper in the structure. Interestingly, it appears that as the fragrance escapes, the remainder of the plastisol layer contracts so as to prevent the formation of void spaces. For aesthetic or other reasons, dyes, pigments, etc., may also be included. Similarly, particularly where extraneous odors are not objectionable, it may be desirable to include stabilizers such as dibasic lead phosphite and triphenyl phosphite to neutralize any I-ICl released from the vinyl resin.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING Understanding of the invention will be facilitated by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which like numbers refer to like parts in the several views, and in which:
FIG. 1 is a greatly enlarged cross-sectional view of a laminar product made in accordance with the invention, showing the way in which a volatile organic substance is made available for release and FIG. 2 is a greatly enlarged cross-sectional view of the product illustrated in FIG. 1, showing how it can be utilized in a more complex assembly.
DESCRIPTION OF PRESENTLY PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the drawings, composite laminar structure indicates the simplest form of the invention, comprising substrate layer 11, face 1 la of which is overcoated with layer 12, comprising a vinyl plastisol resin containing an essential oil or other volatile composition. Layer 12 is flexible and relatively soft, and its upper surface 12a, which is almost mirror smooth, is protectively covered by removable cover ply 13, whose lower surface 13a also extremely smooth contacts surface 12a. To make certain that layer 12 adheres to substrate 11 rather than to cover ply 13 when the latter is removed, it is generally preferred either to treat surface 1 1a so as to enhance its affinity for layer 12, to treat surface 13a so as to decrease its affinity for'layer 12, or both.
In FIG. 2, product 10 is incorporated into a more elaborate assembly by adhering substrate 11 to stratum 15 with adhesive 14 and by adhering cover ply 13 to stratum 17 with adhesive 16. As an illustration of how this can be accomplished effectively, structure 10 may be sold with adhesive layer 14 and adhesive layer 16 already applied, permitting it to be mounted between adjoining pages 15 and 17 of a magazine, booklet or similar leaved structure. It is frequently preferred to have layer substrate 11 and cover ply 13 all transparent, thus permitting product 10 to be applied over printed matter. Separating page 17 from page 15 exposes surface 12a of layer 12, thereby releasing the volatile substance contained therein. Thus, if the volatile organic material contained in layer 12 is a perfume, structure 10 may be incorporated in an advertisement for the perfume, the combined visual and olfactory impact on the reader providing an extremely persuasive sales device. At the same time, the low vapor permeability of substrate 11 and cover ply l3 prevents the fragrance from escaping to other parts of the magazine, where it might contaminate other similar advertisements.
For other applications it may be desirable to maintain the structure in register when cover ply 13 is replaced by making stratum 15 continuous with stratum 17; in such event strata 15 and 17 constitute a hinge and need not be coextensive with substrate 11 and cover ply 13.
From the foregoing, it is also apparent that structure 10 can be provided with an adhesive only on the exposed lower surface of substrate 11, permitting itto be attached where desired, removing cover ply 13 whenever it is desired to release the volatile component. For example, if the volatile component in layer 12 is a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor, laminar product 10 may be mounted in a fishing tackle box; cover ply 13 is then removed when the box is in storage to expose surface 12a of inhibitor containing layer 12 and thus prevent rusting of the tackle. The adhesive may be heator solvent-activated, although normally tacky and pressure-sensitive adhesives are generally preferred.
The examples set forth below, in which all parts are by weight unless otherwise noted, will further indicate, without thereby limiting, ways in which the invention can be practiced.
EXAMPLE 1 Using a high shear mixer, 60 parts of dioctyl phthalate was blended into 100 parts of plastisol grade polyvinyl chloride (commercially available from Union Carbide Corporation under the trade designation QYLF), about 5 minutes being required to obtain a smooth blend at room temperature. An additional 30 parts of dioctyl phthalate was then blended in, after which 19 parts of a perfume (Leather Fragrance No. 5 l77-S, available from International Flavors and Fragrance) was added and thoroughly mixed throughout the blend. A 4-mil thick layer was then formed between two l.S-mil biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate film sheets, one of the films having its inner face previously coated with a low adhesion coating of the type described in Dixon US. Pat. No. 3,318.852. The structure was then heated at 250 F. in a forced air oven for about 2 minutes, until the blend fused, forming a transparent visually homogeneous coating. The completed structure was then stored for one week at room temperature, during which time it displayed substantially no odor. When the two polyester films were then separated, however, the perfume-containing plastisol layer preferentially adhered to the untreated polyester film surface, exposing the surface which had been adjacent the LAB-treated surface of the other polyester film, and immediately releasing fragrance. The removed film could be readily replaced, immediately suspending further fragrance release, and the process repeated scores of times without noticeable loss of effectiveness or change in fragrance. This fact is considered particularly important because of the nature of the perfume, which is made up of several components having quite different degrees of volatility. The structure of this example appears to permit release of the various components, which include a spectrum ranging from low volatility oils to highly volatile top notes, in the same ratio as they appear in the perfume.
The biaxially oriented polyester film used as both the substrate layer and the cover sheet layer in this example are tested for vapor permeability in a modified version of the well known moisture vapor permeability test described in Paint Manufacturers Association of the United States, Bulletin 19, 24S (1901 In the test 50 cc of ethyl acetate (which is an ester and hence similar to many fragrances) .is poured into a glass jar. An annular lid, having a center opening of known area, is then used to hold the film snugly against the top of the jar, the edges-of the lid being sealed to the jar with aluminum foil tape. The weight of the unit is then recorded and measured at 24 hour intervals, until constant rate of loss is obtained at 40 C. and 50 percent relative humidity. The permeability as measured in grams of ethyl acetate transmitted per 100 in per 24 hours is then calculated. For a l-mil polyester film, this value is found to be about 0.08 gram, and the transmission rate for any material to be employed as either sub- 'strate or cover ply should not exceed 0.5 gram per 100 sq. in. per 24 hours. If this value is substantially exceeded, the ability of the substrate or cover ply to prevent inadvertent loss of volatile material is drastically reduced. Materials which can be substituted for the polyester film include other low vapor permeability sheet materials, e.g., aluminum foil-surfaced paper sheets (the foil contacting the plastisol layer), particularly in applications where transparency is not important.
A similar and equally effective test for measuring vapor transmission rate is AS'IM No. E96-53T.
EXAMPLE 2 The cover sheet ply is removed from the product of Example 1, after which the fragrance-containing plastisol-coated substrate is wound, film side out, convolutely about itself to form a roll. The ability of the plastisol surface to cling to a smooth surface insures that the roll will remain wound but permits unwinding when it is desired to remove a strip of the material. The same type of product can be formed without use of a cover sheet by forcing the exposed surface of the plastisol against a steel web, fusing the plastisol, continuously separating the resultant product from the web, and winding it convolutely about a core in the manner just described. Alternatively, the substrate may be wound into a convolute roll after coating with the plastisol and the plastisol then fused; this technique, however, requires that the viscosity of the plastisol be kept sufficiently high to prevent its being squeezed out EXAMPLE 3 A :5 vinyl chloridezvinyl acetate copolymer, plastisol grade (commercially available from Union Carbide Corporation under the trade designation VLFV) is substituted for the vinyl chloride plastisol resin of Example 1. Fusion of the coating could be effected at 225 F., a fact which lends itself to the incorporation of even more volatile or oxidation-sensitive components, e.g., Mint Tea 570244 sold by Polacks Frutal Works and Creme de Menthe 10894-D sold by Fritzsche, Dodge & Olcott. Tenneco 0565, a 96:4 vinyl chloridewinyl acetate copolymer, may be substituted for the VLFV.
EXAMPLE 4 Example 1 is repeated, replacing the 19 parts of perfume with 1 part of Pizza 54214, commercially available from Fritzsche, Dodge & Olcott and forming a 0.25 mil layer. The extreme volatility and high olfactory impact of this material makes it effective at even this low concentration.
EXAMPLE 5 Using the general blending and forming procedures specified in the preceding examples, the following components were blended.
Parts by weight QYLF vinyl resin I00 Dioctyl phthalate 90 Menthol Fumed silica, 0.012 micron 7.5
The fumed silica, commercially available from Godfrey L. Cabot Co. as Cab-O-Sil M-S, served to increase viscosity and minimize running and sagging of the coating prior to fusion. Upon removal of the cover sheet ply from this product, the exposed surface of the menthol- ,containing plastisol layer could beplaced in contact with the skin to provide a rubefacient effect. Methyl salicylate, camphor and other materials may be used instead of or in combination with the menthol to prepare external analgesic, topical decongestant and counterirritant formulations. If a slowly volatile topical anaesthetic, such as lidocaine or benzocaine is substituted for the menthol, local relief of itching, burns, etc., may be obtained; the site of an injection or blood withdrawal can likewise be pre-insensitized. Likewise cantharadin or salicylic acid may be included to provide a product having utility in the topical treatment of warts, corns, etc.
EXAMPLE 6 Forty-two parts of dicyclohexylamine stearate was dissolved in parts dioctyl phthalate and blended with 50 parts QYLF" polyvinyl chloride and 4 parts of fumed silica. The blend was formed between polyester films and fused as in claim 1. Upon removal of the cover sheet, this material could be placed or preferably adhered or otherwise mounted, in tool boxes, etc. In such environments it functioned effectively to prevent tarnish, rust and corrosion for long periods of time, the high plasticizer:resin ratio affording quite slow release of the dicyclohexylamine stearate.
EXAMPLE 7 EXAMPLE 8 Using the general procedures specified in the preceding examples, the following components were blended and formed:
QYLF vinyl resin Dioctyl phthalate Hcxadecyl mercaptan Upon removal of the cover sheet, the product could be installed to protect furniture, shrubs, etc., from damage by dogs, cats, rabbits, skunks and other animals, hexadecyl mercaptan being a known animal repellent. Conversely, a fragrance which is neutral to a pet, e.g., oil of lemon grass, can be substituted for a repellent; small strips can then be affixed in a specific location to assist in training the pet by association. The low plasticizer:resin ratio tends to make the product more brittle than those of previous examples.
EXAMPLE 9 Example I was repeated, substituting cod liver oil for the perfume, incorporating about 6 parts of fumed silica in the blend, and coating the plastisol layer approximately 50 mils thick. The resultant product can be cut into strips resembling pork rind and used as bait on fishing tackle to enhance the appeal thereof to various fish.
EXAMPLE 10 Equal parts by weight of QYLF vinyl resin and Universal Oil Products Strawberry Fragrance No. 36 (a blend of aliphatic and aromatic esters) were blended and formed as in Example 1. Since this fragrance is itself a plasticizer for the vinyl resin, there was no need for a separate plasticizer.
EXAMPLE 1 1 Thirty parts of 8-hydroxyquinotine and 150 parts of diethyl phthalate were heated together to form a solution, cooled to room temperature, and blended with 100 parts of QYLF polyvinyl chloride resin and 10 parts of fumed silica to form a smooth dispersion. A 2- mil layer is then formed between two differentially treated l.5-mil polyester films as in Example 1 and the structure heated at 250 F. for 3 minutes to fuse the dispersion.
This product can be used as an activator sheet in copying a page from a book as follows: The less welladhered polyester film is removed and the plastisol layer placed in contact with the page to be copied. The
book is then closed, to provide uniform contact for a period of about 15 seconds to 2 minutes, during which time 8-hydroxyquinoline volatilizes and is absorbed by the ink on the printed page. The activator sheet is removed from the book, the polyester protective film replaced to preserve the activator sheet for future use, and a copy sheet inserted in the book for a period of about 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Suitable copy sheets and their methods of use include the following:
a. Filter paper which has been dipped in a 5 percent solution of 2,5-dimethoxyl -morpholinobenzenediazonium fluoborate and dried. A latent image is formed and developed by exposure to ammonia vapors. If 60 parts of dicyclohexyl amine is included in the activator sheet formulation, an image is formed directly, i.e., without any ammonia development.
b. Filter paper saturated with ferric chloride forms an image while in contact with the print.
c. Filter paper saturated with a silver soap, e.g., silver behenate, fomis a latent image which is developed by heating on a hot plate.
Many variations can be made in the products and manufacturing steps described without departing from the spirit of the invention. To illustrate, a fragrancecontaining plastisol may be formed in narrow spaced strips between two wide polyester sheets, making it convenient to slit between the strips and thus provide a tab for exposing the surface. For the same purpose, the plastisol may be formed asa series of spaced spots and the base and cover plies died out in an area surrounding but larger than each spot.
Insect traps may also advantageously incorporate products of the invention. A prebaited trap may be sold in collapsed form and expanded in the field to simultaneously remove the cover sheet ply from a coated plastisol layer containing a volatile insect sex attractant and expose a tacky insect-holding adhesive. Likewise, plastisol coatings may incorporate potent insect repellents which are highly volatile and have low' persistence on skin.

Comments: I'm not really a fan of the other Tourna polys, but this one is a winner. It has great feel, great control
and last longer than most polys. For this price point this is a no brainer.

Comments: I have used these strings in a hybrid with RPM Blast. Black Zone as the main and it felt fantastic -- great
spin, great power and a consistent string bed. I hybrid it with RPM simply cause I had a half set left over and I am sure glad I did.

Comments: If you are a fan of strings such as Savage black or Black Magic, then this string will be right up your
It has a similar soft feel like the strings listed above when strung as a full bed. In terms of power, I would rank Black Magic > Black
Zone > Savage Black. Spin potential is about the same in all three strings. After about 6 hours of play, the strings show little
movement and tension loss.
