Robert Rothschild Farm announces its first complete line of organic sauces after recently achieving organic certification of its manufacturing facility in Urbana, Ohio. Robert Rothschild Farm produces sauces, dips, preserves, mustards, spreads and other gourmet products that are all natural, gluten free and kosher.
Robert Rothschild Farm grows and manufactures all their food on the Ohio farm, but is the first certified organic line. This new line of organic products will launch the beginning of a movement to convert the majority of the Robert Rothschild Farm's current product offering to be organic certified.
"We are conscientious of current healthy lifestyles and want to provide the consumer what they desire," said Jim Gordon, President and CEO of Robert Rothschild Farm. "We felt compelled to provide organic products that tasted great. Taste should not be compromised when seeking organic products using Non-GMO ingredients."
The new organic line of sauces was announced at the Summer Fancy Food Show on July 1, 2014 and includes Blueberry Balsamic, Citrus Chardonnay, Pineapple Habanero BBQ, Sriracha Teriyaki, Whiskey Pepper Cream and White Wine Creole sauces.
This year also celebrates Robert Rothschild Farm's 30th Anniversary of producing specialty foods. Robert Rothschild Farm is continually recognized as one of the top gourmet food manufacturers in the United States and has been honored with numerous awards for its branded product line, but the company also produces gourmet products under many private labels. Robert Rothschild products are carried in over 5,000 grocery and specialty stores throughout the US.
"Creating organic products shows our commitment, not only to high-quality, flavorful products but taking our company to the next level," said Gordon. "Organic foods are a growing market in which Robert Rothschild Farm is well positioned to produce and provide these essential products. We look forward to leading the specialty food industry and bringing our consumers the finest in organic, open and serve products that they have come to expect from us."
On the heels of the Dairy-Deli-Bake show earlier this month, Tribeca-based Goodie Girl announced expanded distribution of its full line of cookies nationwide, initially focusing on the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern markets. The company, which specializes in creating gluten-free cookies that are just as good or better than the classics, will increase availability beyond specialty stores into major chains as demand for high-quality gluten-free goodies continues to rise.
"Goodie Girl cookies are for all cookie lovers, including those intolerant to gluten," said Shira Berk, founder and owner of Goodie Girl. "The gluten-free category is experiencing double-digit growth annually and according to some sources, almost a quarter of consumers now have someone at home eating gluten-free. Those are big numbers, but we all know that the key driver of repeat purchase is great taste. We are truly proud of our products and excited to be increasing distribution so that we can share our cookies with more consumers."
Known as the creators of gluten-free cookies that everyone can enjoy, Goodie Girl is thrilled the market for its cookies goes far beyond celiac or gluten-intolerant individuals. Known for her baking skills, Shira Berk founded Goodie Girl in 2010 after a friend requested she reconstruct cookies for a gluten-free child. To her delight, Berk baked her way to the discovery that she could make delicious gluten-free cookies with "just the right amount of wrong." With flavors ranging from Mint Slims and Quinoa Choco-Chip to Midnight Brownie and Oatmeal Raisin, her mouthwatering cookies have been delighting consumers ever since.
To help make increased production and distribution goals a reality, Goodie Girl recently partnered with Toufayan Bakeries. As one of the largest family-run bakeries in the United States, Toufayan provides production and distribution expertise and has become well-known in the gluten-free market for its line of gluten-free wraps featuring flavors such as Spinach and Garden Tomato.
"The gluten-free food category continues to grow, but what are emerging are true innovators in baking. It is one thing to make a gluten-free item; but Goodie Girl has created incredible cookies, that happen to be gluten-free," said Greg Toufayan, COO of Toufayan. "We take great pride in our line of gluten-free wraps and when I was introduced to the delicious tasting Goodie Girl line, I knew we wanted to help this business grow."
"It's a dream-come-true, to find a home for our very special cookie brand within a family-owned business recognized nationwide for their commitment to authentic, high-quality baked goods. We welcome the expertise that Toufayan brings and an enhanced ability to bring Goodie Girl cookies to both retailers and consumers," said Berk.

Grandpa's Kitchen is owned and operated by the Shrock family in Ogden, Utah. When they were diagnosed with celiac disease in 2004 they did not know how many other people struggled with the same disease. What they did know is that they felt better living a gluten-free lifestyle and wanted to share what they found with others. At first, the family tried a variety of gluten-free products, but found it an unsatisfactory experience because of the lack luster taste, texture and consistency. They began to experiment with home-made recipes and gluten-free flour mixtures and were able to create a blend of flours which produced an edible, delicious, moist bread. This inspired them to launch Grandpa's Kitchen in 2007, with the first product being a gluten-free bread mix.
Today Grandpa's Kitchen continues to manufacture the bread mix, which is now a bread/pizza crust mix. The family also publishes their "Family Favorites" gluten-free cookbook to help others realize how easy cooking gluten-free really is and how good it can taste. They are very excited about their gluten-free baking flour which is a perfect combination of flours and starches blended to give delicious results as a cup-for-cup wheat flour replacement.
Customers continually send emails telling Grandpa's Kitchen how long it has been since they had a good piece of bread and how much they love Grandpa's Kitchen gluten-free baking mixes. The Shrock family hear stories every week about the benefits others have found by living a gluten-free diet.
Grandpa's Kitchen gluten-free mixes are available at leading grocery retailers, food services, organic and natural food retailers, food catalogs and online. Find a store at www.grandpas-kitchen.com. Grandpa's Kitchen loves to get emails (firstname.lastname@example.com) and will respond to questions anyone has about celiac disease, living a gluten-free lifestyle or about their products.

United Natural Foods International (UNFI), a leading national, natural food distributor will be the first to begin shipping the product in August 2014, in time for back-to- school.
Absolutely Gluten Free is headquartered in Bayonne, New Jersey, and currently has a line of flatbreads and crackers available in stores nationwide. Follow on Facebook and Twitter @AbsolutelyGF and online at www.absolutelygf.com.

PARTNERS is just introducing at the Summer Fancy Food Show its Double Chocolate Gluten-Free Brownie Thins under the Free For All Kitchen brand that signifies that they're part of a product line that's gluten-free as well as meeting all the other PARTNERS product standards for good taste and clean ingredients.
These little squares are a sweet cross between a cookie and a cracker, and they're made with ancient whole grains, naturally sweetened, and they're absolutely gluten-free, although you wouldn't think it when you taste them. They contain no rice, corn or soy ingredients. You can taste them for yourself, along with other products in the Free for All Kitchen line, by visiting PARTNERS in booth #4112 at the Fancy Food Show.
The Brownie Thins are offered in a 4-ounce package to retail for $3.99 to $4.29, and around the time school starts this fall, they'll also be available in a 120-calorie single-serving package that will retail around 99 cents and that will be a great item to tuck into that school lunchbox. "Being able to have something to give your kids who are gluten-intolerant that's a sweet treat," says PARTNERS Vice President Cara Figgins, "There just aren't sweet alternatives on the market in single serves…. It's a sweet treat, but it's all clean ingredients, and it's way better than eating Oreos."

It's handy Carroll!
Kammy hails Roy's revolution and Andy's big breakthrough, but he's not impressed with Lee Mason.

And then on Mondays you can find Kammy right here on skysports.com as he brings you his picks of the weekend.
Join us every week as he runs through his highs and lows...
GAME - Sunderland 2-3 West Brom
The game of the weekend was the one I was at! I was at Sunderland's clash with West Brom for Soccer Saturday and you couldn't pick a winner as it swung one and the other, although after Youssouf Mulumbu's equaliser I felt Albion were more likely to take the three points. Sunderland have been on a poor run, but could easily have won that game and it was very even in the first half. After the break, West Brom swamped the midfield, and maybe on another day Steve Bruce would have made a change to cope with that because there were too many bodies for Lee Cattermole and Kieron Richardson to cope with. But you have to give credit to Roy Hodgson for the incredible job he has done, They probably need one more win - or maybe one more point - to be safe, but as Sunderland have found in the last few games, those points are not always easy to come by.
GAFFER - Roy Hodgson
I'd have to say Roy Hodgson. His players were 2-1 down at half-time, but they didn't change their philosophy and won the game well after the break. People are starting to say that Hodgson can only handle lesser players, but that's not true. He's been at big clubs like Inter Milan before and the fact is that at Liverpool it just didn't work for him. It's got nothing to do with his ability to handle big players... remember, people were talking about him as the next England manager last season. He wasn't accepted when he arrived at Anfield and sometimes that happens in football. Sometimes you go to a club that isn't right for you. It happened to me with Stoke; I took the manager's job there having been a former player, but I inherited some players who didn't want to accept me and I made a few mistakes along the way. That's the way it goes in football and Roy should be left to get on with doing things his way.
GOAL - Paul Scharner
I don't think this goal has got the credit it deserved. Even when we showed it on Goals on Sunday, we didn't run it right from start to finish, but if you look at the full move you'll see how West Brom carved Sunderland open with their passing. For a team under pressure to get results to go away from home and create a goal like that was something special. Hodgson couldn't mould Liverpool's players into adopting the style he wanted, but West Brom are accepting his methods. This goal showed that.
TEAM - Liverpool
They set about Manchester City and stopped them playing right from the word go. Kenny Dalglish was very clever with his tactics in that game; he saw City's strength and power in midfield and he stopped that at source. Every one of the Liverpool players was up for it and they'd won the game before the first half had finished; there was no way back for City whatsoever after the break. Under Rafa Benitez, the Liverpool side was all about Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard and if they didn't play then they often failed to win. Well neither of them played on Monday night and it's a welcoming sign for Kenny that he's been able to change that mentality. They proved that they have quality players and the result was never really in doubt.
PLAYER - Andy Carroll
He's erased the memory of Fernando Torres from Liverpool Football Club, which is amazing because the Spaniard was adored there. The jury was out on Carroll and his £35million price tag, but in one night he has become the darling of the Kop. They can now see him forming a partnership with Luis Suarez, which could get even better when Gerrard comes back into the midfield. He won acceptance on Monday night and that was a big hurdle to get over. He looked like the ultimate centre-forward against City.
GRIPE - Lee Mason again
How could he fail to spot Laurent Koscielny's foul Gary Taylor-Fletcher in the penalty area? What a shocker! I still think Arsenal would have won the game, but a spot-kick would have made things interesting. I wrote about Lee Mason last week when even Sir Alex Ferguson said Nemanja Vidic was lucky to stay on the field, and this week he gave another big decision in favour of the "bigger club". I'm sure all of the Arsenal fans would admit it was a penalty, but on the day the only person in the ground who couldn't see it was the referee. It always seems to happen to the teams at the bottom of the table. I'm sure Wigan will complain about Fernando Torres' foul on Al Al-Habsi on Saturday as well. People say it evens itself out over the course of the season, but I'm not so sure it does. Everyone make mistakes, but this is two weeks in a row for Mason - and it's been at the expense of the teams near the bottom.

Harding Academy student's art on display at Theatre Memphis
Teenage painter hopes notoriety of talent translates into a career
Seventeen-year-old Christine McKinney dreams of moving to New York City and working as a full-time artist.
She wants to travel the world, painting landscapes, people and buildings.
Until recently, her family's Bartlett home has been the gallery for many of her vibrant acrylic paintings -- some on canvasses taller than the rising Harding Academy senior.
"I just don't feel like you get the impact if they're small," said Christine, who has won local, regional and national awards for her artwork.
This month, nine of her paintings are on display in the gallery at Theatre Memphis at 630 Perkins Extended. She's the only high school student to have her work featured as the gallery's main attraction, said Randall Hartzog, director of marketing and communications for the theater.
Her paintings will be on display through the run of "Crazy for You," which ends June 26. They can be viewed before and after shows or during box office hours. (Visit theatrememphis.org for more information about when the theater is open.)
"It's exciting," Christine said of being selected. "It makes me want to keep doing it. I want to have my work in galleries."
Many of her paintings are based on photographs she takes around town and on her travels, which include trips to Florida, New York and Australia. She's painted a scene from the Sydney Opera House and the beaches of Perdido Key.
Two large paintings of late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain hang on the walls in her computer room. "From an artistic standpoint, I loved his eyes and I wanted to paint them," Christine said.
She started painting when she was 12, two years after her father, Ron, passed away suddenly. Her art has been a form of therapy and she feels, in part, she paints from her travels to show her father where she's been.
Her "studio" is the living room of the home she shares with her mother, Vivian. Nearly every day and often late at night, she paints on a large easel in front of the fireplace on canvasses her mother, Vivian, builds.
Theatre Memphis response from playgoers has been "amazing," Hartzog said. "Especially when they find out that she's so young."

premature buzz over Girls built into a mountain of hype that was unscalable for Dunham.
premature infants in neonatal intensive care are at high risk for infection.
mid-15c., from Latin praematurus "early ripe" (as fruit), "too early, untimely," from prae "before" (see pre-) + maturus "ripe, timely" (see mature (v.)). Related: Prematurely; prematurity; prematuration. Premature ejaculation is attested from 1848; Latin euphemism ejaculatio praecox dates to 1891 in English but was used earlier in German and appears to have been, at first at least, the psychologist's term for it.
premature pre·ma·ture (prē'mə-tyur', -tur', -chur')
Occurring or developing before the usual or expected time.
Born after a gestation period of less than the normal time, especially, in human infants, after a period of less than 37 weeks.

We are expecting our second (and last) child early December...a baby boy! We have a VERY short list of names that we both like but we have yet to pick the "one". Just looking for your thoughts. If it matters, our DD is Paityn and I love the spunky nature of her name.
Our baby boy name list: Brady, Grant, Wyatt, Cole
Brady is at the top of my list. I think it sounds great with Paityn and is also a spunky, jock, fun sounding name...and no, we don't love quarterbacks =)
Thanks, Christin

What is your worst baseball ballpark experience?
Perhaps someone spilled a beer on you?
You asked a girl to marry you while on the jumbo-tron and she ran off crying?
Your team lost and you locked your keys in the car?
You got mugged by that dude with the weird hat and the clarenet after the game?
You fell out of the stands while trying to catch a foul ball?
You got the number of one of the MDX girls only to get things mixed up and end up on a date with DMX ?
Anyway, whatever it is, what is your all-time worst ballpark experience?

It has beautiful red colouration on the bottom of the stems and their roots are red as indicated by their common name. A very dramatic plant and worth planting near a pond, water feature or dam. This an easy plant to grow and is ideally suited to marshy or swampy conditions in full sun or semi-shade, but will also grow in soil that is not waterlogged provided it gets ample water particularly during winter and spring. A generous mulch of compost is also very beneficial. It is evergreen if it is given water all year round, but if given total summer drought it may die down and go dormant. Wachendorfia thyrsiflora is invaluable in difficult, permanently wet areas, is an attractive addition to the water garden where it can be planted at the waters edge or where the water overflows, and it makes an excellent backdrop to the herbaceous border. It attracts birds and butterflies.
Typha capensis Bulrush These plants are deciduous and grow to about 2 m tall. They are often seen on the verge of a dam, wetland or river where the roots filter the water. It is frost resistant, fast growing and has brownish flowers in summer. Birds use these as nesting sites and humans utilize it for many things eg the rhizomes are used for meal and the leaves are useful for brooms, weaving and thatching. It is also medicinal,
This is a fast-growing groundcover has finely divided grey-green foliage. It covers 30 x 30cm in full sun and semi-shade. It produces a pretty mauve flower in spring and autumn on long stalks about 40cm tall. Plant these in a mixed border and use the flowers for the vase. The flowers attract butterflies and birds.
This evergreen reed grows to about 3 meters tall and is found in wetlands and dams. It is frost resistant and has a multitude of uses. Flowers are produced from December to June. It plays very important role in protecting the soil from erosion, filters water and offers shelter to many bird species and other animals. It is even used to make paper and is used in the chemical industry. The rhizomes are edible and the hollow stems are used for pipes and musical instruments. The seeds are used to make ointment for burns. Weavers use these to build their nests on.
This is a pretty, fast-growing, perennial water plant that grows about 30cm x 80cm. It has flat, rounded, floating leaves, and delicate yellow flowers appearing in summer. It makes a useful addition to ornamental ponds and dams, especially for gardeners who may be searching for indigenous alternatives to exotic water plants. It may be planted in the soil at the bottom of a pond in about 30-40 cm of water, although it is fairly tolerant of fluctuating water levels.
This a very fast growing variable sprawling perennial groundcover with prostrate branches that root at the nodes and it grows about 20cm. Some of the branches become erect and may reach a height of 450 mm or even taller if growing up through other vegetation. The little flowers may be white or varying shades of blue or mauve. It flowers from November to June. The fruit is a capsule containing a number of small seeds. This is a fast growing species especially in warm, damp conditions. Bees have been seen visiting the flowers and are presumably the pollinators of this species. It is a very attractive,lovely looking groundcover for wetland areas and dry condition.
Gunnera purpensa Wild Rhubarb This deciduous shrub grows to about 1m in the sun. It is frost resistant and produces reddish brown flowers in spring. As it grows along our rivers it is useful for wetlands or in a dam. The stems and roots are peeled and eaten and it also has medicinal value. The large leaves are attractive next to a water feature.
Juncus effusus is a clump forming wetland plant that is a striking vertical addition to any garden or container planting. It grows to 70cm high and 30cm wide. Upright, fanning, deep green, rounded stems make a great accent in container or water gardens. It can be planted at the edge of that is about 20 cm deep. Inconspicuous golden flowers appear on top of the stems in summer. It provides food and shelter for birds and other wildlife and it is also used to make traditional sitting mats. It thrives when planted in sun and is an ideal plant for a wet land garden or around a water feature. They attract birds and butterflies.
This is a must for a stunning winter garden. It is an evergreen groundcover which is frost resistant and fast growing. Plant a clump of them in the sun, in a moist area or a wetland. The orange-yellow flowers make a stunning display in winter and attract birds and butterflies. It is suitable for small gardens and the flowers are long lasting in the vase.

Jaïpur Homme by Boucheron
This fragrance just smells good. Refined, soft and snuggly. You mix vanilla, amber and tonka and you'd think it would be a sticky sweet mess, but it's not. Jaipur is very soft, a little sweet, a bit of spice and slight wood note. It is almost transparent in its simplicity. If an incense could be made of vanilla alone this is it. I like it but it is what it is - no questions or intrigue - and therefore I don't find myself wanting to wear it much. It needs a little more adventure or mystery in the mix. But no question vanilla with amber and tonka just smells good!

Reviews for Trinity Church in the City of Boston
I am a lifelong Episcopalian. I am committed to the particular faith-system of this institution. What I did not understand until I joined Trinity, was the extent to which Trinity and its Independent Foundation reach deeply into the community to affect positive outcomes for a broad spectrum of the community at large, regardless of affiliation with Trinity. Education, community building, outreach in many many forms are a significant component to this organization. Most Bostonians probably think of Trinity as purely a historic landmark housed in what PBS calls "one of the top ten influential buildings in America." It turns out that this "influence" reaches far beyond architectural or aesthetic bounds. Trinity is by far, one of the most influential institutions working towards social justice and peace in our community. I am a proud parishioner and supporter of of Trinity. Its not just a building that sits pretty and proudly on Copley Square. It is a vibrant and healthy heartbeat at the very soul of Boston.
More Feedback
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would want to help the rest of the region, and especially the great citizenry of Boston, to know how much deeper the soul and good works of Trinity reach in to help relieve some of our community's most pressing challenges.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 4/5/12
The Tampa Bay Rays have placed closer Kyle Farnsworth on the 15-day disabled list due to a strained right elbow. The expected move was announced Thursday, one day before Tampa Bay's opener against the New York Yankees. An MRI this week revealed a strain of a muscle that's causing soreness in the elbow. Farnsworth said Wednesday it is the same problem that bothered him last September. The right-hander went 5-1 with 25 saves and a 2.18 ERA over 63 appearances last season. To take Farnsworth's place on the roster, the Rays recalled right-hander Josh Lueke from Triple-A Durham.

a) from 5 to 95 weight per-cent of a water soluble acrylamide polymer having sufficient glyoxal-reacted amide substituents and unsubstituted amide groups to be thermosetting with the ratio of the number of said glyoxal reacted amide substituents to unsubstituted amide groups being in excess of 0.06:1, and,
b) from 5 to 95 per-cent by weight of water soluble polyol having a MW below 3000.
2. The creping adhesive composition for creping cellulosic webs of claim 1 where a) is an acrylamide/diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride polymer.
3. The creping adhesive composition of claim 2 where the water soluble polyol is from the group consisting of sorbitol, glycerol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol and the polymer contains from 1-30 weight per-cent of glyoxal based on the weight of the acrylamide-diallydimethyl ammonium chloride polymer.
4. A method for creping cellulosic webs comprising:
a) applying to a rotating creping cylinder a dilute aqueous solution of a composition comprising:
1) from 5 to 95 weight per-cent of a water soluble acrylamide polymer having sufficient glyoxal-reacted amide substituents and unsubstituted amide groups to be thermosetting with the ratio of the number of said glyoxal reacted amide substituents to unsubstituted amide groups being in excess of 0.06:1 and,
2) from 5 to 95 per-cent by weight of water soluble polyol having a molecular weight below 3000.
b) pressing of a cellulosic web against the creping cylinder to effect adhesion of the web to the surface of the cylinder; and
c) dislodging the web from the creping cylinder by contact with a doctor blade.
5. The method of claim 4 where 1) is an acrylamide/dialyldimethyl ammonium chloride polymer.
6. The method of claim 4 where 2) is from the group consisting of sorbitol, glycerol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol and the polymer contains from 1-30 weight per-cent of glyoxal based on the weight of the acrylamide-diallydimethyl ammonium chloride polymer.
The invention compromises combinations of glyoxlated vinyl amide polymers and water soluble polyols which are used in the tissue manufacturing process as Yankee dryer coating agents.
In the tissue manufacturing process, the paper sheet is dried by means of a steam heated drying cylinder, termed a Yankee. Adhesive materials are used to coat the Yankee surface in order to adhere the wet sheet to the dryer. This improves heat transfer, allowing more efficient drying of the sheet. Most importantly, these adhesives provide the required adhesion to give good creping of the dry sheet. Creping is the process of impacting the sheet into the metal blade, thus compressing the sheet in the machine direction, creating a folded sheet structure. Creping breaks a large number of fiber-to-fiber bonds in the sheet, imparting the qualities of bulk, stretch, absorbency, and softness which are characteristic of tissue. The amount of adhesion provided by the coating adhesive plays a significant role in the development of these tissue properties.
The Yankee coating also serves the purpose of protecting the Yankee and creping blade surfaces from excessive wear. In this role, the coating agents provide improved runability of the tissue machine. As creping blades wear, they must be replaced with new ones. The process of changing blades represents a significant source of tissue machine downtime, or lost production, as creped product cannot be produced when the blade is being changed. Release agents, typically hydrocarbon oils, are used in association with the coating polymers. These agents aid in the uniform release of the tissue web at the creping blades, and also lubricate and protect the blade from excessive wear.
Each tissue mill and even each tissue machine has different Yankee coating requirements. This is caused by differences in furnish, water chemistry, wet end chemical additives, machine conditions, dryness of the sheet to be creped, and degree of creping desired. Due to the differences in coating requirements needed from machine to machine, it is difficult for one coating polymer to perform in an optimal manner on each machine.
It has recently been discovered that a superior adhesive for Yankee Dryers, used to produce creped paper products, comprises glyoxated poly-acrylamide/diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride (DADMAC). The use of these resins as creping adhesives is disclosed in the application of Arthur James Begala and Gary S. Furman Jr. for Yankee Dryer Adhesives filed 5/18/90, Ser. No. 525806. The disclosure of this application is incorporated herein by reference. While these resins have provided superior Yankee Dryer adhesives, it would even be more beneficial to the art if they could be improved upon.
It is an object of this invention to provide Yankee coating compositions which provide increased flexibility to adjust coating properties in order to give good performance under a wide variety of conditions.
It is another object of this invention to provide a means of adjusting the adhesion provided by glyoxylatedpoly(acrylamide/DADMAC) resins. While it is desirable for a creping adhesive to show strong adhesion in order to develop good sheet properties, the adhesion provided by some glyoxylatedpoly(acrylamide/DADMAC) resins is so strong that they cannot be used on all types of tissue machines.
It is the further object of this invention to disclose coating compositions comprised of compatible materials which form uniform films. Typical practice in the industry today involves the use of an adhesive polymer in combination with a release oil. These materials are not compatible and do not form uniform films.
The invention comprises a creping adhesive composition for creping cellulosic webs. It comprises:
a) from 5 to 95 weight per-cent on an active polymer basis of a water soluble acrylamide polymer and preferably an acrylamide/DADMAC polymer having sufficient glyoxal-reacted amide substituents and unsubstituted amide groups to be thermosetting. The ratio of the number of glyoxal-reacted amide substituents to the number of unsubstituted amide groups is in excess of 0.06:1 and
b) from 5 to 95 per-cent by weight of a water soluble polyol.
These polymers are described in detail in U.S. Pat. No. 3,556,932, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. These polymers are ionic or nonionic water soluble polyvinyl amides, having sufficient glyoxal substituents to be thermosetting.
As indicated in U.S. Pat. No. 3,556,932 the DADMAC component in the polymers is sufficient to render them substantive to cellulose fibers in aqueous suspensions. The amount of DADMAC groupings in these polymers may vary. It may be less than 10 mole per-cent (e.g. 1-6) or as high as 50 mole per-cent. In a broad aspect of the invention polyacrylamide per se may be used. On a weight basis of the active backbone polymer the glyoxal is reacted in amounts ranging from 1.0 to 30.0 weight per-cent, based on the weight of the polymer. For more specificity as to the respect to minimum amounts of ionic groupings necessary to produce the thermosetting resins, reference should again be made to the disclosure of U.S. Pat. No. 3,556,932.
The most preferred polymer is one that is formed by reacting at a temperature of at least 25� C., and as high as from 50�-100� C., an acrylamide/DADMAC copolymer containing approximately 95 mole per-cent acrylamide and five mole per-cent DADMAC and having a weight average molecular weight of about 10,000 to about 25,000 with glyoxal. The glyoxal is added to the base polymer at a weight ratio, based on actives backbone polymer. This preferred Yankee Dryer adhesive comprises a copolymer of acrylamide and diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride containing from about 2.0 to about 10.0 mole per-cent DADMAC and has the molecular weight in the range cited above. The method of producing these glyoxlated polymers also is described in further detail in U.S. Pat. No. 3,556,932.
The preferred polyacrylamide polymers reacted with glyoxal as described generally above has the following characteristics:
This polymer which is used in the Examples hereafter has 5 mole % DADMAC in backbone; 30 weight % of glyoxal based on backbone solids. It is an aqueous solution polymer containing 6.5% active material (polymer and glyoxal). It has a Brookfield viscosity of glyoxylated polymer=10-15 cps #1 spindle, 60 rpm, Brookfield viscosity of backbone polymer=360-1720 cps, #2 spindle, 12 rpm.
The above polymer is hereafter referred to as Polymer 1.
The water soluble polyols used in combination with the glyxoylated acrylamide/DADMAC adhesives may be selected from a wide number of water soluble polyols. They are generally simple polyols which contain not more than six hydroxyl groups. Also, they are of relatively low molecular weight e.g. below about 3,000 and usually below about 2,000.
Illustrative of the water soluble polyols that may be used to prepare the compositions of the invention, are such compounds as glycerine, ethylene glycol, sorbitol, diethyleyne glycol, and triethyleyne glycol. Any water soluble alcohol falling within the generic class described above may be used in combination with glyoxylated acrylamide DAMAC resins to produce improved or plasticized Yankee Dryer Adhesives.
The amount of water soluble polyols in relation to the glyoxylated polyacrylamide DADMAC polymers on a dry polymer basis may range on a weight per-cent basis as indicated from about 5 to 95 % by weight. In a preferred embodiment of the invention it is desirable to use between 10-75% by weight of the water soluble polyol. It is to be understood that not all of the water soluble polyols produce similar results. In certain instances, depending upon the temperature employed, the particular glyoxylated acrylamide DADMAC resin used and other variables, routine experimentation will be necessary to determine the optimum water soluble polyol to be used, as well as the particular amount to be employed in conjunction with the glyoxalated polyacrylamide DADMAC resin.
The application of the composition of the invention to Yankee dryers is a three step process comprising:
a) Applying to a rotating creping cylinder a dilute aqueous solution of the composition of the invention;
b) Pressing a cellulosic web against the creping cylinder to effect adhesion of the web to the surface of the cylinder; and
c) Dislodging the web from the creping cylinder by contact with a doctor blade.
The compositions of the invention are utilized in the form of dilute aqueous solutions. Preferably, the dilute aqueous admixture of the compositions used to coat the Yankee contains from about 0.05 to about 4 weight per cent solids. Those skilled in the art of creping adhesives will appreciate that the reason for such a large percentage of water in the admixture is in part the need to only deposit a very thin layer of adhesive on the creping cylinder, which is most easily accomplished with, for example, a spray boom.
The relative compatibilities and change in properties of Polymer 1 as plasticizing material are added may be demonstrated by simple observation. Films of the blended materials were cast by transferring aqueous solutions of the blended materials to open plastic petri dishes and allowing the solutions to air dry. Results are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1______________________________________Observations of plasticizedglyoxylated poly (AMD/DADMAC) films. FilmPlasticizer % Added* Film Appearance Flexibility______________________________________sorbitol 10 cream-colored; opaque 1 25 clear; transparent 2 50 translucent; slight haze 3 75 clear; transparent 4glycerol 10 translucent; hazy 2 25 translucent; hazy; 3 yellowish 50 translucent; yellowish 4-5ethylene 10 translucent; hazy 2glycol 25 translucent; yellowish 3-4 50 translucent; yellow 5diethylene 25 translucent; hazy; 1glycol yellowish 50 translucent; hazy; 2 yellowish______________________________________ *by weight based on polymer solids
The relative film appearance gives an indication of the compatibility of the blended materials. Here, an opaque appearance indicates little to no compatibility, whereas a transparent film indicates good compatibility between the components. Sorbitol evidenced good compatibility with the glyoxylatedpoly(acrylamide/DADMAC) and glycerol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol showed at least partial compatibility.
In comparison, it is interesting to note that the components of a typical coating composition in use commercially today, such as poly(aminoamide)-epichlorohydrin resin plus a hydrocarbon release oil, are not compatible in film form. Upon drying blends of these materials, intact uniform films cannot be obtained. Rather circular areas of oil are found interspersed among areas of polymer. The oil and the polymer are not miscible. The relative uniformity of a Yankee coating is expected to have implications on the uniformity of the creping action and ultimately the uniformity of the final tissue properties.
Relative changes in the physical properties of the films could be determined by subjectively judging the flexibility of the air-dried films. Here flexibility was ranked on a relative scale of 1 thru 5 where 1=brittle, 2=slight flexibility, 3=fair flexibility, 4=good flexibility, and 5=excellent flexibility. A film of the glyoxylated-poly(acrylamide/DADMAC) resin by itself may be considered brittle. All the plasticizers acted to increase the flexibility of the polymer film. These observations of relative flexibility are, of course, dependent on the moisture content in the film, as water itself is an excellent plasticizer.
This example demonstrates the variation of glyoxylated-poly (acrylamide/DADMAC) glass transition temperature with plasticizer content. The glass transition temperature Tg, is characteristic of a particular polymer, and represents the change which occurs in going from the glassy to the rubbery or flexible state. To a large extent, the usefulness of a particular polymer, in regard to its properties, is quite dependent on its glass transition temperature. The influence of Tg on performance should also be expected for Yankee Dryer coating polymers. Therefore, changes in the Tg of the coating polymer can be used to alter polymer performance on the Yankee.
The Tg 's are given in Table 2 for the appropriate concentrations of sorbitol.
TABLE 2______________________________________Tg 's of glyoxylated-poly (AMD/DADMAC) and sorbitol blends.Sorbitol (wt %) Tg (�C.)______________________________________70 2960 4350 5340 6430 11720 133______________________________________
The polymer itself has a Tg typically in the range from 150�-165� C., which can be determined from DSC second run data. In the first run this transition is obscured by an exotherm which may be related to further crosslinking of the polymer. From Table 2, it is quite clear that sorbitol can be used to alter the Tg of the glyoxylated-poly(acrylamide/DADMAC).
The relative adhesion of creping adhesive compositions was measured by means of a peel test. In the test procedure, a paper sample was attached to a metal panel with the adhesive of interest, and peeled at an angle of 90�. The paper substrate used in the test was a filter grade paper obtained from Filtration Sciences. This paper has a basis weight of 78 g/m2. The metal panels, to which the paper was adhered, are standardized test panels produced from low carbon steel and supplied witha smooth finish (surface roughness of 0.2-0.3 um).
In the procedure a 76 um film of the adhesive was uniformly applied to a steel test panel by means of an applicator. The paper test strip was carefully applied to the film and rolled once with a weighted roller to achieve uniform contact between the paper, adhesive, and metal panel. The panel with attached paper strip was then mounted on the peel testing apparatus, the surface of which was controlled to a temperature of 100� C. When the sample was stabilized at this temperature, the paper strip was peeled from the panel and the average force needed to accomplish the separation was recorded. The strip was peeled from the panel at a constant effective speed of 43 cm/min.
Results for three plasticizing materials are shown in Table 3. Table 3. Adhesion results for plasticized glyoxylated-poly (AMD/DADMAC)
______________________________________Sample Avg. Adhesion Std. Dev.(wt. %)* (g/in)** (g/in)______________________________________Sorbitol0.11 87.0 4.00.33 86.1 17.61.00 88.9 9.51.50 72.1 23.02.50 39.0 15.25.00 25.8 15.210.00 -- --Glycerol0.50 80.6 19.61.00 57.0 19.61.50 48.4 15.32.50 71.6 15.65.00 86.1 17.410.00 58.2 7.220.00 43.5 6.1Ethylene Glycol1.00 39.9 15.91.50 84.9 19.72.50 107.6 17.65.00 124.2 --10.00 46.7 11.120.00 37.2 5.6______________________________________ *all samples contained 1 wt % polymer **At least 5 tests per condition, except to 5.0 wt % ethylene glycol, where 3 of 5 tests resulted in paper failure.
The polymer by itself shows an adhesion of approximately 89 g/in for a 1 wt % solution. The plasticizers, sorbitol, glycerol, and ethylene glycol, gave no adhesion of the paper to the metal panel. In Table 3 the level of adhesive polymer is kept constant at 1 wt. % while the level of plasticizer is varied. For sorbitol, adhesion remained constant up to a 1:1 ratio of plasticizer to polymer. Thereafter adhesion dropped rapidly until at a 10:1 ratio of plasticizer to polymer, no adhesion remained. Both glycerol and ethylene glycol showed an initial dip in adhesion, followed by a rise to a peak, around a ratio of 5 parts plasticizer, followed again by a gradual decrease in adhesion. These effects were more pronounced with ethylene glycol.
These results demonstrate the ability to alter adhesion by introduction of plasticizers. They also demonstrate the ability to maintain high adhesion properties when significant physical changes to the polymer film have taken place. For example at a 1:1 ratio of polymer to sorbitol, adhesion is maintained at the same level as the polymer alone, but the Tg of the polymer film has been reduced to 53� C. from approximately 150�.

In Flash Professional CS5 Essential Training, author Todd Perkins explains the fundamentals of Flash Professional CS5, the industry standard for creating animations and interactive applications for the web, desktop, and mobile devices. This course starts with the basics, such as using the drawing tools to create simple animations, and progresses to automating animation with tweens and adding interactivity with ActionScript. This course also covers how to add sound and video to projects, enhance realism with effects like easing, and publish a project to a variety of platforms. Exercise files are included.
Sometimes you will create a tween in Flash and it just won't work. Remember that you can identify a broken tween in the timeline by a dashed line with a green background. See that I have a broken tween between frame 11 and 16. Let's try to find out what's wrong. I am going to click on frame 11 to select all the artwork on that layer. I can see that all that's selected is the shape in the girl's hair. If I select it, I can see that it's a shape in the Properties panel.
Let's go to the last keyframe and see that everything is right there. I'll click on the last keyframe, and I can see that the girl's hair is selected. If I click on the girl's hair, I can see that it's a group. Remember groups cannot shape tween. So I am going to have to break this object down to a shape. So here I am going to use the Break Apart command, which is Command+B or Ctrl+B. When I do that, you can see that this object is a shape. Now the tween still looks broken in the timeline, but if I click on it, you will see that it turns into an arrow, and now the tween works properly.
So when you have a problem with your shape tween, just go back the basics. Check all of the artwork on the first and the last frames of the tween and make sure that you only have shapes. Any groups or symbols will break your shape tween.

What makes it a Portrait ? :munch:

What makes it a Portrait ? :munch:
It's a planned photograph of a person or group of people. Of course in the colonies portraits of pets are popular too :D
Just adding of course it needn't be a photograph, it could be a painting drawing etc.
The depiction of a breathing creature, be it a human or an animal that captures the personality and other characteristics that describe that person such as the living environment and occupation. The more depth and sensitivity it has, the better portrait it is. A portrait usually focuses on the person or persons and personality, instead of the environment, scene or outer details and that makes it different from street photography, fashion or documentary.
Please, not another "define this fuzzy concept" thread.
Never thought this would happen. Well done Sean!
... and you really started this one off with a doozy Donald! :D
A picture of something.
I have an extended project of photographing my boys in the environment (landscape). I consider them portraits, though they are as much about the landscape as they are about my boys.
PS...well, at least one of them is in portrait orientation...:p
The eyes have it...
Its when the photographer sublimates their ego for the sake of the subject.

NASCAR Slows Down
By editor
NASCAR's top drivers will cap the season tonight in New York City, the site of the sport's annual awards ceremony. 2006 has been a year marked by lower attendance at many tracks and declining TV ratings all over the country, in spite of some major changes designed to attract more fans. USA Today recently explored the slowdown of NASCAR's prolific growth in an article written by Nate Ryan. From New York, he spoke with WFAE's Scott Graf about the trend.

Roche's bid to sub Kadcyla for Herceptin takes a big hit with lackluster PhIII data
Roche has been charting promising numbers for its standout breast cancer drugs Kadcyla and Perjeta. But now the next-gen duo has failed to beat Herceptin and chemo in a late-stage study, putting a damper on Roche's plan to expand the market for its new drugs and sending its shares into a downward spiral.
Once again, Roche breast cancer franchise shines, sending Q3 drug sales up 4%
Roche can thank its newly augmented breast cancer portfolio for powering third-quarter sales upward, far enough to surpass analyst estimates. And given the latest data on one of those drugs--Perjeta--more growth could be at hand.
Roche's Perjeta helps breast cancer patients live a record-setting 15.7 months longer
These days, even expensive cancer treatments don't necessarily deliver show-stopping study results when it comes to actually extending patients' lives. Roche's Perjeta is now a major departure from that trend.
Roche's breast cancer franchise keeps delivering, with huge jumps for Perjeta, Kadcyla
Blame a strong Swiss franc on any falling sales and profits Roche put up in the first half of 2014, the company said Thursday. The Swiss pharma's cancer drugs certainly didn't cause the decline, with newcomers Perjeta and Kadcyla helping power the group with especially noteworthy revenue gains.
Roche unveils more plans for plant expansions in Switzerland
While other drugmakers are closing plants in the face of patent losses and revenue challenges, Roche is steadily expanding its manufacturing network.
Roche breast cancer drugs Perjeta, Kadcyla are built for speed, report finds
Roche's new set of HER2-positive breast cancer drugs are making it big with oncologists.
Roche's Perjeta proves a fast fave with cancer docs, but Kadcyla's a speed racer
Roche's new breast cancer duo, Perjeta and Kadcyla, seemed destined to make a big splash in the oncology market. Now, Decision Resources has the numbers to show just how big that splash has been.
Roche will use its diagnostic test for Perjeta and Kadcyla to identify patients best suited for the treatments
It will allow doctors to spot patients who will benefit from those treatments.
Roche's Perjeta nabs speedy FDA nod in early breast cancer
Perjeta is now the first cancer drug approved to treat patients before surgery. Developed by Roche's Genentech unit, and already approved for women with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer, Perjeta can now reach a huge new group of patients at early stages of the disease.
FDA panel gives 'historic' thumbs-up to Roche's Perjeta in early breast cancer
You might call Perjeta a guinea pig. The new breast cancer drug from Roche's Genentech unit could soon become the first approved for cancer patients before they've had surgery. It would also be the first approved under new FDA guidelines for speeding cancer drugs to patients with early-stage disease.

Types of Life Insurance
Term Life Insurance:
Term life insurance policies provide affordable, temporary coverage. Term policies contain no cash value and are designed for death benefit protection only. The premiums may be level for the first 10, 15, 20 or 30 years, depending on the policy selected. Because the death benefit protection is for a limited period, the premium is often the lowest of all types of life insurance policies. However, after the level term period, premiums go up significantly and increase annually.
Whole Life Insurance:
Whole life is the traditional form of permanent life insurance. It provides the certainty of level premiums, a guaranteed interest rate and a guaranteed death benefit1. Whole Life provides the extra security of guaranteed protection at affordable rates, yet it includes the element of cash value accumulation.
Universal Life Insurance:
Universal life is a flexible premium, adjustable life insurance product that provides you with the flexibility of choosing the policy features that are appropriate for you and adjusting those features as your financial priorities and needs change. Policy cash value that grows on a tax-deferred basis2.
Indexed Universal Life:
Indexed universal life is a version of universal life that combines death benefit protection with the opportunity to grow cash value through an account that credits interest based upon the upward movement of stock market indexes – without the risk of investing directly in the market. The Index Account features a zero percent floor which guarantees your account won't earn less than zero percent due to poor market performance.
2.Midland National does not give tax or legal advice. You should consult a professional prior to making a purchasing decision.
Life insurance policies have terms under which the policy may be continued in force or discontinued. Current risk rates and interest rates are not guaranteed. Therefore, the planned periodic premium may not be sufficient to carry the contract to maturity. For Indexed Universal Life policies, the Index Accounts are subject to caps and participation rates and in no case will the interest credited be less than 0 percent. The policy's death benefit is paid upon the death of the insured. The policy does not continue to accumulate cash value and excess interest after the insured's death. Please refer to the customized illustration provided by your agent for additional detail. For costs and complete details, call or write Midland National Life Insurance Company, Administrative Office, One Sammons Plaza Sioux Falls, SD 57193. Telephone: (605) 335-5700.
Indexed Universal Life products are not an investment in the "market" or in the applicable index and are subject to all policy fees and charges normally associated with most universal life insurance.
