Las Vegas, 1967
Wait, Las Vegas isn't all casinos and glitzy gimmicky hotels, neon, and a grillion light bulbs, nor has it always been so? Based on most photos of Sin City, including those we've shown in our carspotting series, it's probably hard for most folks to peer past the facade and see the everyday goings-on conducted in everyday cars and trucks, as we see in this photo from Vintage Las Vegas, taken on Paradise Avenue and looking west, and in which it's difficult to spot anything remotely Vegas-y. Not so today. What do you see here?
Mesa, Arizona, 1960s
Along Mesa's Main Street in the 1960s, one could see—if one squinted hard enough—palm trees and the distant mountains. Or, if we're to believe this postcard photo that we came across on the Phoenix 101 series, every parking meter in use and a handful of cars headed to and fro and little other sign that actual human beings lived there. At least we get a good variety of cars to identify. What do you see here?
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1962 Facel Vega Facellia
While the Toyota four-cylinder engine under the hood of this 1962 Facel Vega Facellia for sale on Hemmings.com is far from stock, apparently few if any Facel Vega enthusiasts want anything to do with whatever original Pont-a-Mousson-built Facellia four-cylinders remain, and the Toyota engine makes just as much sense as anything else that'll fit. The rest of the car looks a little rough, but remains solid and pretty much all there. From the seller's description:
This is a strong running West Texas and New Mexico car. The engine is a low miles 2 liter twin-cam Toyota 18R-G with its stock 5 speed transmission. This car is undamaged and rustfree. The stainless brightwork is excellent. Spare windshield included, as well as some other parts. The interior needs a complete re-do but is complete. This is a very sound, mechanic-owned car.
Location: Santa Fe, New Mexico
Status: No Longer Available

Like a batarang, the original Batmobile comes up for sale again
Photos courtesy Barrett-Jackson.
Maybe he needed space for a new couch? After telling the world he planned to install the original Batmobile in his living room two years ago, Batman fan Rick Champagne has decided to put the car up for sale once again.
Champagne, founder of a logistics company based out of Phoenix, paid $4.62 million for the Batmobile in January 2013 at Barrett-Jackson's annual Scottsdale auction, buying it out of George Barris's personal collection. Barris – along with designer Herb Grasse and metalshaper Bill Cushenberry – transformed the former Lincoln Futura concept car into the Batmobile for the producers of the Batman television show and had already convinced Lincoln to sell the car to him for $1.
The final selling price Champagne paid for the car – $4.2 million plus a 10 percent buyer's premium – was widely acknowledged as the world record selling price for car specifically built for television or film, barely nudging aside the £2,912,000 paid for the James Bond Aston Martin DB5 in 2010. Other cars that weren't specifically built to appear on film but still had parts in the making of certain movies, including the 1968 Ford GT40 used for the production of Steve McQueen's Le Mans, have sold for more than the Batmobile's 2013 selling price.
Currently for sale in Barrett-Jackson's showroom, the Batmobile's asking price now sits at $5 million, though Champagne is accepting offers. For more information, visit Barrett-Jackson.com.
Four-Links – Exner's Dow, Alfa's museum, Canada's Tatras, Leiter's cabs
In 1967 and 1968, Virgil Exner and his son took on a couple projects for Dow Chemical, which wasn't so much interested in getting started as a carmaker as it was in highlighting its automotive products division. Both were modeled in clay, and as Dean's Garage wrote this week, the man who built those models, Gene Watch, would like to know exactly what happened to them.
* Alfa Romeo announced this week that it's opening up its historical museum, and the museum's website has an excellent series of photos of the various cars in the automaker's collection, including the 159 above.
* Tatras were supposed to have been all over British Columbia thanks to a trade agreement, but something went awry and several – if not dozens – of the cars ended up in the waters just off the western Canadian province's coast. Driving.ca has more on the mystery. (via)
* At autoliterate, a review of photographer Saul Leiter's NYC street scenes can't pass without an examination of the taxis the artist (in)advertently caught.
* Finally, the BBC has a story of a European couple that met on a double-decker bus and later decided to simply convert another into a house on wheels. (via)
Corvallis, Oregon, 1960s
Did any of the drivers in this photo of Corvallis's NW Fourth Street looking north from SW Monroe Avenue, which we came across on the
University of Oregon Oregon State University's Flickrstream, think they were up to anything particularly special that day in the Sixties when an unknown photographer hung out a seventh story window to grab their picture? Or were they just going about their normal business? Where were they all headed, and where were they all coming from? And while we're pondering those questions, what do you see here?
Artifacts of futures that might have been: the art of the Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild models
Photos courtesy GSL 25 Championship.
While we noted a couple weeks ago that hundreds of Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild models have gone missing in the decades since GM bought the models from the boys across America that submitted them for the contest, that doesn't mean none remain. In fact, dozens of the models recently went on display at the 25th annual GSL International Scale Vehicle Model Championship and Convention, and the organizers of that display were kind enough to supply us with photos of the models and the names of the boys—now men—who built them.
What really stands out among these models is what you don't really see – any obvious correlations with GM automobile designs. Yes, here and there one has a passing resemblance to a GM concept car of the Fifties or Sixties, but the designs here seem to take just as much, if not more, influence from Ed Roth's cars and the Jetsonian vision of the future than from anything Earl's or Mitchell's men were churning out.
In addition, the craftsmanship looks amazing, more so considering the boys who built these did so on kitchen tables and not in Detroit studios. We've yet to research all the names attached to the models, some of which we've seen before, but it wouldn't surprise us to find out that many of these boys and young men went on to careers in art, design, or even at General Motors.

Warren, Ohio, 1960s
Did those old postcard photos of cities' downtowns depict their subjects unrealistically? Too much, sun, too many happy people shopping, too much civic boosterism? Couldn't be, right? But then again, let's take a look at these two photos of Warren, Ohio, courtesy the DowntownWarrenHistory Flickr page. Above, a postcard photo of Market and Main streets, looking east; below, a decidedly less populated photo of a Buick dealership on East Market near Chestnut Avenue. What do you see here?
Deliveries of retro California black plates stamped from original molds to begin soon
A vintage California black plate. Photo by Jerry "Woody."
When California's DMV announced that, should the Legacy Plate Program succeed in bringing back the state's iconic black plates, many feared that the plates would simply be featureless flat plates with screenprinted digits. As it turns out, the plates, which will begin shipping to California car owners within the month, will instead be stamped using the original molds.
"The molds were just sitting there in Folsom prison," said Aaron Moreno, the legislative director for California Assemblyman Mike Gatto, who introduced the bill that made the plates possible. "And when the people at the prison heard we were trying to get this program started, they dusted the molds off and saw that they could still be used."
The Legacy Plate Program, which passed the legislature and became law in 2012, allowed for the revival of any of three vintage license plate designs – the black plate used from 1963 to 1969, the yellow plate used from 1956 to 1963, and the blue plate used from 1969 to 1982 – as long as the design garnered at least 7,500 pre-orders from January 2013 through the end of last year. According to Moreno, the black plate proved the far-and-away most popular of the three, with about 20,000 orders to date; neither the yellow or the blue plates received more than a few thousand pre-orders.
A sample California Legacy black plate. Photo courtesy California DMV.
A couple minor differences will separate the new black plates from the old ones: The "63" stamped in the sticker window in the top right corner will not return, and the entire plate will have a reflective coating, as stipulated by state law. "But if you look at it straight-on, you can't tell the difference," Moreno said. "There won't be any website or other lettering on the bottom like people feared."
The Folsom prison will again stamp the black plates, and the state will start delivering pre-ordered sequential plates within two to three weeks. Personalized plates will take a little longer, Moreno said.
"I'm sure the assemblyman will be getting a set," Moreno said. "I know I'll be ordering them for my 2015 Challenger."
For more information on the black plate program, visit DMV.CA.gov.
Chicago, 1962
The identity of the photographer for these two found photos of downtown Chicago – State Street looking south from about Randolph, above; and State looking south from Wacker, below – will probably remain unknown to the end of time, but we're grateful to that shutterbug (and to the pie shops for uploading the photos) for capturing these random moments in 1962 complete with plenty of cars to call out. What do you see here?

Brunei immigration dept beefs up enforcement
Publication Date : 10-01-2014
Employers of foreign nationals and the immigrants themselves are reminded of their obligation to comply with the Sultanate's immigration rules and laws, a senior chief immigration officer said yesterday.
Haji Md Yante Hussaine Hj Ismail, head of the Law Enforcement Section under the Immigration and National Registration Department, yesterday said that the department continuously monitors the matter and will not hesitate to take any legal action against any person who has been found in violation of the law.
According Haji Md Yante, the reminder was necessary as the department has been aware of irresponsible and errant behaviour of some employers who were also guarantors to foreign nationals, including failure to pay wages and provide shelter.
A few employers also continue to hire foreign nationals who only hold visitor passes, as well as workers who are legally guaranteed under other employers.
Employers or any person found employing foreigners without valid work permits may find themselves subjected to the law, as they are violating the nation's rules and regulations, Hj Md Yante reiterated.
"The department would like to remind foreign citizens who come to this country that it is their duty to comply with all applicable laws and regulations that have been established under Chapter 17 of the Immigration Act, especially those related to permission to stay in this country legally.
"Offences under the Passports Act (Chapter 146), which include 'not abusing or using someone else's passport to enter and exit from the country' are very serious crimes," he added.
It is essential to guarantee that foreign nationals enter the country legally, to ensure that the required medical screenings are conducted, or can be guaranteed of having no past records of criminal convictions, Hj Md Yante explained.
The senior chief immigration officer further said the department was constantly working with other enforcement agencies in the nation, as well as sharing information with the agencies of neighbouring Asean countries, in an effort to combat immigration-related crime such as human trafficking.
Based on statistics collected by the department, Hj Md Yante reported that a total of 107 multi-offence cases related to the Immigration and Passport Acts were brought to court in 2013, compared to 85 cases in 2012.
Meanwhile, the department imposed compound fines on 1,144 people (amounting to US$489,200) in 2013, compared to 1,059 people in 2012 (which amounted to US$427,500).
"The increase in compound cases was due to the increased efficiency of the division in the enforcement of immigration laws in 2013, compared to the previous year.
"It is also due largely to the information received from the immigration officers at the country's border control posts," Hj Md Yante said.
According to the figures, the past year recorded 468 cases of overstaying (under Section 15(1) of the Immigration Act): 402 of which were fined, and 66 of which were charged.
Of the latter, 44 were found guilty and convicted in court for overstaying in the country for more than 90 days.
This year, the Law Enforcement Section started enforcing operations dubbed "Operasi Kikis JIPK", in addition to their already existing operations: "Operasi Sergah" and "Operasi Bersepadu".
Four "Operasi Kikis" have been carried out, since the start of January.
The total recorded number of foreign citizens who entered and left Brunei from 2011 to 2013 by immigration control posts exceeded six million.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
M. S. HUDSON Jan. 16, 1951 TREATING WOOD Filed Nov. 2, 1946 Patented Jan. 16, 1 951- UNITED STATE S PATENT OFFICE product has numerous advantages, among which may be mentioned the ease with'which a potentially reactive'resin may be incorporated'in the same and' the stability of the wood product when exposed to moisture.
The primary object of the invention'is the provision of an improved rapid, economical and reliable process for producing such a completely dried hydrolyzed wood in massive or comminuted form, or in the form of powderor flour suitable for molding purposes. This process employs (1) hydrolyzing during which condensates from the steam and'products of the hydrolysis reac-, tion soluble therein are constantly removed from contact with the wood and from the treating chamber, and (2) the drying of such hydrolyzed wood in an atmosphere of an'organic drying medium which is a solvent for organic solvent soluble extractives produced by the hydrolysis or already present in the wood whereby the same are removed from the wood. In other words, the
process assures that the condensates from steam and hydrolysis products soluble therein are continually removed during hydrolysis whereby such valuable by-products may be recovered in a form free from de radation and that objectionable organic solvent soluble extractives produced by hydrolysis or already present are simultaneously removed in the drying operation incident to forming woocl'having a zero moisture content.
In the manufacture of hydrolyzed products in accordance with the invention from Wood in the form of structural lumber, plywood and comminuted wood and similar materials, the same is subjected to a'vapor treatment with either steam containing small amounts of hydrochloric acid, as a'c'atalyst, or steam with small amounts of aniline to produce mild hydrolysis 'for the purpose of removing hemicelluloses. After this vapor treatment, pressure with air or inert gas may be built up in the wood in the treating chamher; The treating chamber is then filled with water still maintaining the pressure of inert gas resentative examples of 2 or air, as in the Rueping process (see United States Patent No. 709,799, Reissue No. 12,707, and Patent No. 1,008,864). Water is driven into the wood by employing a higher pressure, and this water serves to wash out the hydrolysis products on the release of the pressure and institution of vacuum or suitable reduced pressure conditions. One or more of these cycles may be employed for completely washing out the hydrolysis products from the wood. The wood may then be dried byemploying vapor phase drying, as described in my Patent No. 2,273,039 and my application Serial No. 579,851, now Patent No. 2435218, using a suitable drying medium such as Stoddard solvent. As disclosed in my above identified patents, in efiecting dehydration of wood any suitable organic material which can be vaporized and which vapor-will permeate wet wood and flash-off the moisture content thereof without deleteriously affecting the wood may be.
used. There are numerous and practically unlimited examples of suitable materials, but repsatisfactory materials are as follows:
Organic compounds, whether saturated or unsaturated, chain or cyclic, and any of their homologues that might be suitable for this procedure, such as alcohols, ethers, amines, acids, aldehydes, ketones, esters, halides, cyanides, sulphides, polyhydric alcohols, anhydrides such as phthalic and nitro compounds; of which the following are examples:
n-Decane n-Decyl alcohols n Decyl amines n-Decyl esters n-Decyl' halides n-Decanoic acids n-Decyl ketones n-Decyl 'aldehydes n-Decyl cyanidesn-Decyl sulphides Preferred examples of suitable, organic drying mediums are creosote, petroleum distillates, coal tar, wood tar or wood distillates, and the following:
High boiling alcohols:
Amyl Isopropyl Isobutyl Diethylene glycol Glycerol Aldehydes:
Butyric aldehyde Benzaldehyde Crotonaldehyde Furfural High boiling amines:
. Aniline Dimethyl-aniline Mono-, diand tri-ethanolamines Pyridines Quinollnes High boiling esters:
Butyl acetate Amyl acetate Butyl lactate Dlbutylphthalate Diamylphthalate Glycol monoetnyl ether acetate Isopropyl lactate Octyl acetate Diglycololeate Glycol stearate High boillng ethers:
Diamyl ether Diethylene glycol monoethyl ether Halides:
Chlorobenzenes Chlorinated phenols Nitrochlorobenzenes Ortho-dichlorobenzenes Ortho-nitrochlorobenzenes Para-dichlorobenzenes Nitro compounds:
Nitrobenzene Ortho-nitrotoluenes Hydrocarbons:
Benzenes Toluenes Mesitylenes Cumenes Naphthalenes Diphenyl KetonesBenzophenone Furfural or other resin forming material may be used as the drying medium if it is desired to leave in the wood resinous condensation products, i. e., to incorporate a synthetic resin in the wood.
In the manufacture of hydrolyzed products, by means of acid hydrolysis, in accordance with this invention, from coinminuted Wood the material is wetted with a solution of a mineral acid, e. g., sulfuric acid of about 1% strength and subjected in a rotating basket in 'a closed cyiim der to the action of steam at a temperature of 340 to 360 F. (105 to 135 lbs/sq. in. gauge pressure) for a period of 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the particle size of the commlhuted wood and the lignin content desired in the final product. The steam pressure is then released through a line in the bottom of the treating cylinder so that condensates and drainings from the WOOd, which contain sugars, furfural, and other by-products are forced into a condensate flash tank in which there is a line in the vapor space leading to the atmosphere. By releasing the pressure in the flash tank to the atmosphere the hydrolysis liquor containing sugars and non-volatile substances is concentrated. The steam being released is lead through suitable heat exchangers both for the purpose of recovering heat and steam volatile hy-products such as furfural and acetic acid by condensation.
When the pressure in the cylinder has reached atmospheric, wash Water may be introduced and the hydrolyzed wood product washed by rotating the basket. After each washing period the Wash water is drained 01f and a spray of Wash Water directed on the rotating basket from a spray line provided in the cylinder. washings in the manner described are continued until the hydrolyzed product is free of hydrolyzing acid and products or hydrolysis. A. satisfactory indication of this point is when a distilled water sample in which a sample of thehydrolyzed wood has been boiled snows a pH of 5.0 to 6.0.
The washed hydrolyzed product may then be vapor dried in the same cylinder by subjecting it to the action of the vapor from a boiling hydrocarbon, such as Stoddard solvent,'or other suitable organic drying or drying and impregnating medium, introduced to the cylinder while rotating the basket. The solvent may be removed if desired after drying has been completed by employing a suitable vacuum step.
In the accompanying drawings, I have illustrated a preferred apparatus, but it is to be understood that this apparatus may be suitably modified in order to carry out the invention within the scope of the appended claims.
In the attached drawing there is shown diagrammatically the apparatus which I employ for processing of Wood or Wood products with the vapor-liquid method for the production of hydrolyz'ed wood.
In the drawing A is a horizontal metal retort or cylinder such as, for example, a creosoting cylinder. B is a cylindrical basket-like container for Wood shavings, sawdust, chips or similar mechanically disintegrated Wood substance. This basket is constructed of Wire mesh of suitable size covering a rigid frame work l9. Spiral baffies H are arranged within this frame work to aid in mixing the material when the basket is rotated. The numeral l2 indicates an engaging device such as a female gear to accommodate a gear I3 on the shaft M which passes through packing gland [5 to the sprocket i6 driven by a chain I! from motor [8 and serves as a means for slow speed rotation of the basket B. The numeral l9 indicates a bearing on the cylinder B which receives the stationary shaft 20 on the door of the retort. When the door of the retort is-closed the shaft 28 and bearing I9 support the cylinder B in cooperation with the rotating supporting means [Sand l4.
Rollers 21 supported on cylinder A, Whichcontact circular tracks or hands 22 forming part of frame work 18 on cylinderB, serve to align and support the basket during rotation. Suitable lever "operated rollers (not shown) may also be arranged for shifting to contact longitudinal bands '23 of frame work l8 and thus support basket B for loading or unloading from chamber A.
The cylinder A is connected through ports a, b and c to vapor line LVI which connects through valve 24 to evaporator or boiler C. The nipples from the line LVI through ports a, b and c are extended into the cylinder about 4" to prevent drain back: of condensate in the cylinder to line LV!. Through ported, e and f the cylinder is connected to vapor line LV-2 having valves 25 and 26 to line LV-3 leading to dephlegma'tor D or the 7 cylinder is connected pump 29. 1 1
evaporator into line HL2 and returns to the The following example is illustrative ofthe manner of using this apparatus to produce hydrolyzed wood of high lignin content.
Comminuted wood, e. g., wood chips having a havingvalve Sl by a pump, not shown, through valve 32, pump 33, and valve 34 to spray line SLl and spray header 35; the acid solution being sprayed on the basket and its contents during slow rotation of the basket. When the comminuted wood in the basket has-been saturated to'the desired extent withacid, as may be determined by gauging the tank from which the acid is beingdrawn, the pump is stopped and valves 3], 32 and 34 areclosed. During the spraying operation any of the acid solution not takenup by the wood may be allowed to drain from the cylinder to tank, F by opening valve 36 on line LL- -l. It may then be returned to storage by opening valve 3! on line LLII, by a suitable pumping means, not shown. Thecylinder A is then connected to the atmosphere through line LV2 by opening valves and 21 to condenser E and valve 33 on line LV5. Steam is then introduced to, the cylinder from the evaporator C :(which in this case may be a simple steam boiler) by opening valve on line LV I. Assoon as I the air in the cylinder has been displaced by the steam, as will be shown by live steam being discharged from line LV5, valves 25, 21, and 38 arethen closed. Valves 39 and M are then opened, the steam passing from the evaporator through lines LVI, LV--2 to the cylinder A. Steam pressure in'the cylinder A thereby rapidly ,in'creased to 195-135 lbs/sq} in;, which usually requires fromB to 5 minutes During this time" the basket B is kept rotating at a rate of Std 15R. P. M. Valve 36 is partially opened to allow condensate containing reaction products from the'wood to drain into condensate tank F,
'valve t! on line LV -S being openedto condenser In. this manner condensates from thecylin der A is being continually removed from the hydrolyzing theater and is being concentrated in tank F by the flashing oif of steam and steam volatile products to the condenser E which may be operating also as a heat exchanger to recover heat from the steam. 'In lieu'of the manually operated drain valve 33am automatic condensate discharge trap may be employed to transfer the condensate fronr'the cylinder A to'th'e conden'sate tankF.
The conditions of temperature (340 F. to 360 F.) and pressure (195 to 135 lbs/sq. in.) are maintained in the cylinder for the necessary time dried usingthe apparatus shown in the attached required to give the desired lignin content in the final product. About 20 to 30 minutesunder'the operating conditions described above will yield a product having a lignin content of 40 to 45%.
At the endof .this' time valves 39 and 49 are suitable. storage, not shown, by means of a pumping means, not shown, entering the heat exchanger D through line LL-Z and passing through the. tube section of D to a suitable discharge line, not shown, returning to the wash water storage. 1
4 Condensate forming in.D may be allowed to fill that heat exchanger and spill over to condenser E by opening valve 43 on line LV-l2.
Condensation of steam and steam distilled byproducts from the wood occurs in condenser E when water is introduced to the tube section of that condenser by suitable means, not shown. The condensate is collected in condensate receiving tank H and may be transferred therefrom to a volatile by-product storage or tosuitable fractionating equipment, not shown, through line LL5 having valve 44.
Release of pressure from the cylinder A is usually completed in a matter of from 5 to l 10 minutes. 7
When the pressure in the cylinder A has 1 reached atmospheric, heated wash water at a temperature of to F. is pumped into the cylinder from a suitable source through line LL9, having valve 3i, valves 32' and 35 being opened. The wash water enters thecylinder quire about30 minutes to l'hour, the wash water,
is drained from the cylinder by opening a suitable discharge, not shown, onthe bottom of the cylinder. At the-end-of such periods of draining wash water may be sprayed on the basket and contents and the latter allowed. to drain for a short period thereafter before introducing water for the next. main washing cycle.
a About 3 or- 4 such washinQg-cycleswill be found sufficient to remove the acid and hydrolysis prod ucts, a total of 10 to 15 thousand gallons of wash water per ton of dry hydrolyzed wood, delivered in 3 or 4 wash-ing'cycles, are required for the, washing. a a
The damp hydrolyzed product is then vapor ap the dedrawing in accordance with. the methods scribed in my Patent No. 2,273,039 and my plication Serial No. 579,851. 7 Operation of apparatus for drying is the same as that scribed in the application SerialNo. 579,851 cept that the wood is contained in a rotating basket instead of on trams which applies in the case of massive wood.
The apparatus shown in the drawing may be used for hydrolysis of wood by vapor treatment with water acidified with small amounts of H61 to prepare it for subsequent treatment with aniline andfurfural to produce ligno-cellulose plastic molding powders as described in U. S. Patents luv- VA Nos. 1,923,756 and1-.,932,255.. After hydrolysis. the material may be washed in. the. cylinder B and subsequently dried by introducing. vaporized; aniline or furfural. Drying by means; or. aniline.- or an aldehyde in vapor phase. gives. a much. more thorough. and. uniform. distribution of: the plasticizer throughout. the. mass and the heating of the wood. at the; boiling pointof. the chemicals produces a much more stable ligninecelluiose aniline complex, or lignin-cellulose-iuriural plastic when the material is molded. I
In preparing hydrolyzed: products from. either massive timber or comminuted. wood. according. to the present. inventiom. where:- drying. is resorted. to, this is carried outv in accordance with my aforesaid patent and. applications to substantially zero moisture content.
The hydrolyzed products obtained, whether from massive timber or comminutedwood, are completely dried and are identifiable because they are substantially devoid ofwater soluble extracts such as hexose sugars and furi'uralproduced by the hydrolysis action. Moreover the hydrolyzed products are further identifiable by being substantially devoid of organic solvent soluble extractives such as Wood gums and resins, either normally present or produced by said hydrolysls because these are removed when the treated wood is completely dried with an organic vapor which is a solvent for such extractives.
To the dried comm-muted wood treated as above there may be incorporated a potentially reactive synthetic resin. Among such resins are those obtainable from phenol-aldehyde, aminealdehyde, urea-aldehyde, Glyptal and cumarone resin com onents. Prererably about 2: by weight or the potentially reactive synthetic resin is introduced to the comminuted wood which may in some cases be further reduced in size so as to pass through a 20 mesh screen or smaller. In this manner a heat moldable or heat compressible composition is formed.
It will be observed that condensates from. the steam and products of the hydrolysis reaction soluble therein are continually removed as formed from contact with the. wood and by removing these condensates from the treating chamber and lowering the pressure. and temperature conditions surrounding them, for example as in the flash tank F, the usual degradation which occurs when these products are left in the. environment of the treating conditions in. the chamber A is largely prevented and the by-products. are in a much more usable and valuable form.
After the hydrolysis treatment the; wood is usually washed with water and in the case of comminuted wood as much water expressed there.- from as possible before the same is: introduced to the vapor phase drier. This vapor phase drying with an organic vapor. as set forth. in my above mentioned patents, not only produces a completely dry wood but, as mentioned above, removes the organic solvent soluble extractives produced by the hydrolysis, or already present in the wood. These wood gums, although. being resinous in nature, are, as a. rule, not generally miscible with synthetic resins and hence will deter the latter from readily wetting and penetrating the wood in the most satisfactory manner and furthermore such wood resins are generally hygroscopic in nature. although not water soluble and hence are poor binding agents. Therefore it is desirable that these wood gums or resins be removed.

The process of hydrolyzing wood which oomprises treating the same in comminutedcondition in a closed chamber with steam in the presence of an acid catalyst and simultaneously with hydrolysis of the wood removing from said cham ber the condensates from the steam and products of the hydrolysis reaction soluble therein and recovering the said by-products' of the hydrolysis continuously as formed during hydrolysis of the wood, washing said hydrolyzed wood with water, and thereafter removing organic solvent soluble extractivesproduced by the hydrolysis together with such extractives already present in the Wood while drying to zero moisture content with an organic solvent vapor.
5. The process oftreating wood which comprises wetting the wood with a dilute mineral acid, subjecting th wood in. a. closed chamber to the action of live steam and simultaneously with said treatment of the wood removing from contact therewith the. wood condensates and reaction products of the treatment soluble in said condensates, subjecting the treated Wood to washing with. water, expressing the. Water from the washed and. treated wood, and drying-the washed and treated wood in the presence of an organic drying medium in vapor phase which is a solvent for. the organic solvent soluble. products produced by the. treatment as. well as such products already present in the wood.
6-. A. wood treatmentv process. comprising wet.- ting disintegrated wood particles with a dilute mineral acid, subjecting said wood particles, in. a closed chamber to the action of live steam, maintaining said steam treatment at atemperature of about 340 F. to 36.0 F. for a time sufficient to give the desired lignin content in the treated wood, washing the time treated wood particles with water to remove the water soluble reaction products therefrom, and drying; the washed wood particles. with heated, inert. organic vapor which removes the remaining water and the organic solvent solubles from the wood and efiects thorough drying of the wood.
7 7. A process of treating wood to render it suitable for resin impregnation, comprising wetting the wood with a dilute solution of a mineral acid, subjecting the wood in a closed chamber to the action of live steam, continually removing the wood condensates and reaction products soluble therein from said chamber so as to avoid degradation thereof, continuing the steam treatment until the desired lignin content in the wood is obtained, washing the thus treated wood with water to remove water solubles, and then drying the washed wood by passing through said chamber a flow of highly heated, inert, organic drying vapor that removes the moisture and the organic solvent solubles from the wood.
8. A process of treating wood to render it suitable for resin impregnation, comprising wetting the wood with a dilute solution of a mineral acid, subjecting the woo-d in a closed chamber to the action of live steam at a pressure of about 105- 135 pounds per square inch, continually removing the wood condensates and reaction products soluble therein from said chamber so as to avoid degradation thereof, maintaining the steam treat ment at a temperature of about 340 F. to 360 F. until a lignin content of about 40% to 45% in the wood is obtained, washing the thus treated wood with hot water to remove water solubles, repeating this washing treatment a plurality of times and removing the wash water from the chamber, and then drying the washed wood by passing through the chamber a flow of highly heated,
inert, organic drying vapor that removes the moisture and the organic solvent solubles from the wood.

"great book. no disappoint or boredom here!!"
heed the weatherman.
i liked the first time paul got out of the room where he was held captive. but there were many parts that were memorable.
oh she was GREAT. what a good job she did. she added emotion and made you feel that she was right there!
well there were really not many choices. i would not want to take annie out! you would never figure her out as he saw the world according to annie and king told me exactly how she thinks.
it would be paul and i would ask him is he stephen king in desguise. :)
i have read the book in print years ago, seen the movie, and now the audiobook. i like the the audiobook best. i will read it many times.
Well, this would be my first. But I think the presentation is great and it really gets my involved and wanting to keep listen.
When he finally takes power over the evil Annie Wilkes.
Her enthusiam and her way of creating the characters voices and moods.
Just how sad it was to be in Paul Sheldon's situation. Made me grateful to be where I am.
Just want to say again that it was wonderful and made me want to keep listening.
"King was sued for plagiary by a woman like Annie"
Paul's constant reader
Annie of course. She was too much!
The book is much more than the film adaption with Kathy and Paul (they are wonderful and unforgettable in the film). Lindsay does a fabulous reading for Annie, but her reading of Paul is weak and a bit whiney at times...she has a very feminine voice for him.
I always love (I guess I'm sick) when Paul throws the ash tray out his window to get the State Trooper's attention and Annie stabs him with Bossie's (cow) wooden cross from her grave. Bossie died from Annie's neglect. King writes it like Annie is killing a vampire. Part of the cross breaks off in the State Trooper and Annie keeps grunting "There!...there!...there!...there!" with every stab. It is very, very, dark humor. The entire scene is grotesque, outrageous, yet Annie is absurdly funny. King wrote her that way. I think he had a good time writing this book. He certainly had "contempt" for Paul's "constant reader." Perhaps it was a psychologically, cathartic purging for some kind of negative transference he had been experiencing from too many "number one fans."
I do know he was sued by a woman for plagiary and I saw a brief interview of her after King won and she lost. My god, she looked like the character I had in my head, including how she dressed, right out of passages from when I read the book and before the film release. And she had this nervous, weird, angry way of talking (suppressing profanity right under the surface) during the interview. I think she lived in Bangor, or at least in Maine. I think the lawsuit was over the use of the character "Misery" and her story, perhaps other characters that was in Misery's story also. Maybe King could afford better attorneys. Nevertheless, it's one helluva a good read, audio book and film.
Addicted to Audible since 2009
"Great at times"
This book is absolutely great at times but at other times, not so much. With that said, I think this is one of the better books I've listed to by Stephen King and the narrator for this audio book does a great job as well!
"Great Story and Fantastic Reading"
Lindsay Crouse performed amazingly well. The musical interludes are a little strange, but other than that, this audio book was incredible.
"Loved it."
I never ever write reviews, but I had to with this book. Even tho Steven wrote this before I was born it was amazing!!!! One of my top tens. The only thing that's bad about it is the DAMN MUSIC!!!! It cuts in and out randomly. It takes away from the performance.
"Misery is Great!"
From start to finish Misery is riveting! I could not stop listening! Not to mention, Lindsay Crouse's narration is solid and brings the story to life even more.
I enjoyed Misery just as much as the Exorcist, which was riveting, suspenseful and a definite page turner.
Every scene from start to finish!
Ummm....I prefer to remain a fly on the wall and not have a dinner date with any of the characters for obvious reasons.
"Far better than the movie!"
I bought this book I think as a deal of the day promo ... But I bought it solely because one guy reviewed it as this - if think you know the movie you don't know the book. The book was mesmerizing! I could not stop listening and I couldn't wait to hear what was around the corner.
"jaw dropping"
This book is even better than the movie spine-tingling chilling non stop this novel will leave you sitting on the edge of your seat wanting more one of the best Stephen King novels I've read yet
"Such a classic and masterpiece"
Tip: not recommended for those in a bad mental place or suffering from depression. Also limit consumption work or social obligations as it may severely dampen your mood.

Digital electronics works with the signals which are generated by the discrete bands of the analog levels. These signals which are generated by discrete bands are not in the continuous range. All the levels within the discrete band are represent the same signal states. There are relatively very small changes in the analog signal levels. These changes occur due to the problems with the manufacturing tolerance, by the signal attenuation and sometimes due to parasitic noise also.
Design of the digital electronic logic families are started with the relays. The relay digital electronic logic is relatively very less expensive and more reliable, but these are very slow. Normally a mechanical failure occurs in these type of the digital electronic logic families. The fan outs of the typically these kind of devices is ten and these are limited by the resistance of the coils and by the arcing of the contacts from very high voltages.
After the failures of the relays the vacuum tubes were used in the digital electronic logic families. These vacuum tube devices are very fast, but these are generated heat, and these are very unreliable because the filaments are burn out very quickly. The fan outs are normally five to seven in the vacuum tube used digital electronic logic circuits these fan outs are limited by the heating which generated from the vacuum tubes current. The first designed semiconductor logic family is the resistor-transistor logic (RTL). These semiconductor used logic families are thousand times more reliable than the tubes used logic families. They are more cooler, require very less power, but they have very low fan-in three for the devices. Then the second digital electronic logic devices is made with the improved fan outs known as the Diode-transistor logic which improves thefan out to seven, and the power requirement is also reduced. In some of the digital electronic logic devices also known as DTL which are designed to use two power-supplies with the alternating layers of the NPN and the PNP transistors to increase the fan out of the digital electronic logic circuit. The transistor to transistor logic (TTL) digital electronic circuits are designed with the great improvement in these type of devices. In compare to the early digital electronic logic devices, the fan out improved to ten, and later very reliably it is achieved to twenty. The Emitter coupled logic devices are very fast but these devices requires a lot of power. These are used for high-performance computers made up of many medium-scale components. But the most common digital integrated circuits built are use CMOS logic, these are very fast, offers much high circuit density and require very low-power per gate.

By CHERYL HEW email@example.com
STUDENTS of SMK Buntong, Ipoh want to use the Ipoh International Starwalk 2013 as a chance to meet and mingle with students from other schools.
Form Four student Afiq Zulhusni, 16, said this year would mark his first participation in the walk.
"I wanted to try it out after hearing about the walk from my friends as it will be a new experience for me.
"I am especially excited as I hope to make new friends from other schools during the walk," he said.
Form Five student K. Kavitha, 17, said she was interested in joining but had transportation problems for the event date of June 16.
"If I could participate, I want to use the opportunity to have fun with my friends while meeting different people and taking in the festive-like atmosphere," she said.
School principal L. Manoharan said students at the school would benefit from the exposure to a huge event like Starwalk.
"Besides the walk being a fitness activity, it is also a good opportunity for the students to get into the community and learn how to be a true Malaysian.
"By meeting people from different backgrounds, they can cultivate good values and understanding with each other," he said.
Ipoh International Starwalk 2013 is jointly organised by Star Publications (M) Bhd and the Ipoh City Council, with the cooperation of the state Education Department.
The walk, which coincides with the city's 25th anniversary celebrations, is divided into the 10km competition Malaysian category, 10km competition International category (open to all with qualifying time below 50min) and 7km non-competition category.
The registration fee is RM20 (International) and RM15 (Malaysian) for competition walkers and RM10 for non-competition walkers.
Deadline is May 17 for the competition event and May 31 for the non-competition category.
The public can register at The Star's Ipoh office at No. 8-10, Lorong Chung Thye Phin, from Mondays to Saturdays from 9am to 5pm.
For details, call 05-253 0402 or visit http://sites.thestar.com.my/starwalk for online registration or e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com.
