Beauty entails many different components. Part of it is natural looks and part is personality. Beauty also covers how you behave towards others and yourself. The tips in this article will provide you with tips that can boost your confidence and make you feel beautiful.
Consider using Vaseline to moisturize your feet before going to bed. Doing this will make your feet soft and smooth. You will feel like you had a pedicure recently. Try fitting this into your daily routine in order to get the most benefit from it and also to help you remember to do it. Make sure that after you put on the Vaseline, you put on some socks.
Use an exfoliating product on your skin before applying spray-on tanning products. This will make your skin more smooth and will get rid of any dead skin. Your tan will look even and far more natural this way. This also enhances the lifespan of your tan and makes it look more like the real thing.
You need to cleanse your skin once or twice every day. Always completely remove your makeup. If you neglect to do this, your pores won't be able to breathe and you might get pimples.
Use moisturizer on your facial skin. Whether your skin is naturally dry, greasy or somewhere in between, it is important to use a moisturizer daily. Make sure that your moisturizer has an SPF of at least 15.
Keep your eyeliners and lip liners sharpened. This will ensure they are clean to use. A good tip is to put them in your freezer for 10 minutes before sharpening.
Eating healthy will promote the health of your entire body, including your hair, skin and nails. This adds credence to the phrase "beauty comes from within". Your diet should provide you with all the essential nutrients you need on a daily basis. Eat meals that have a lot of whole grains, zinc, proteins and iron. These nutrients will help you have beautiful skin and hair.
To keep the skin around your eyes from getting dry, use a moisturizing eye cream every night. Healthy eyes and corresponding skin will make you feel and look better. It will help decrease dark circles as well as lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Having beautiful eyelashes will actually enhance your face in a big way. Implement the use of an eyelash curler prior to using mascara. This small step draws attention to your curled eyelashes.
Kitchen Sponges
Kitchen sponges work fine for scrubbing yourself. Kitchen sponges clean bathroom surfaces as well as other types of sponges.
There are many ways to help you look beautiful including posture, fitness, clothing and skin care. These can help you to build a more beautiful image so that you can impress your friends.
Hair care is an important component of a mans beauty care. Conditioner is not an optional product. It should be used.
It's important to remember that beauty is not only skin deep. When you exude confidence, you'll be judged as more beautiful. Always be more concerned with your own sense of self than the opinion of others and you will find the path to true beauty is simply self esteem.
Egg Whites
The oldest and easiest beauty tricks remain the most useful. For instance, a quick way to add tightening to your face is to concoct your own mask comprised of lemon juice and egg whites. Mix up a couple of egg whites with a tablespoon of lemon juice, and then put this on the face in a very thin layer that sits for half an hour before being rinsed. Your skin will have a fresh appearance that will make it feel alive.
As stated earlier, beauty is a combination of factors that makes an individual appear more attractive. If you use all the different tips and tricks here, you'll be one step ahead of everyone else as you try to improve your appearance. Beauty encompasses your entire being: mind, body and soul.

About Me
Hello, I'm Dopply. Chances are, if you're on this page you want to learn more about me...alright then. I am one of the original 'oldbies' of this site, active since August of 2007. My interest in the place caused me to become one of the key administrators and technical admin from the site from 2008-2012. At one point, I was the main curator of the site, which I loved, but the site is in much more capable hands, I'd say. I'm very proud of how far the place is come, and I hope that I had some role in it.
Other than all that, I was once an avid pooper, 'retiring' of sorts long ago. I'll still make the occasional video, however. I am a huge video game fan and encyclopedia of sorts...well, or so I'm told. I'm like that about a lot of things, like movies, music, the works. I just love media, creating media...I like to draw, paint, sing, compose, all that jazz. When I'm not being a media freak or working my ass off, I'm with the love of my life.
I've been very fortunate to become friends with many of you, including many of the veterans of the community and been apart of the whole YTP thing itself. The only thing I truly regret is not knowing some of you sooner. I don't intend on going away for a while, as this place has always been my 'home' on the internet. In some capacity, I'll make sure the place keeps going for a long while.

Style of music very similar to normal reggae, but with the guitar/keyboard striking on the downbeat instead of the traditional upbeat. Popularized by new wave/punk bands like the Police in the 80's.

Dominican University moves graduation from River Forest campus to UIC arena
By Dan Haley
OK, here's the trade-off for this year's grads at Dominican University: Invite only a couple of people to your college graduation and enjoy the culmination of your four year odyssey in the cozy confines of the Lund Auditorium right on the leafy campus. Or invite six people to see you make the march but do it in the less welcoming UIC Forum arena in the concrete splendor of the Circle Campus.
Actually the decision has been made and for the first time in its history the May 4 commencement exercises (where did that term come from?) for Dominican will not be on campus. The class just got too large and live streaming the event for the overflow crowd into the school's gym was not a great solution.
Instead the undergrads will hear Christopher Kennedy, scion of the Kennedy clan and until recently overseer of the family's Merchandise Mart properties, as their morning commencement speaker. The graduate school will matriculate in the afternoon.
Kennedy has genuine Dominican connections having taught an honors course this spring on the links between government and community policy on agencies focused on social justice. Kennedy is one of the 11 children of Robert and Ethel Kennedy.

Starfist: Blood Contactby David Sherman Dan Cragg
Through three centuries of interstellar travel, intelligent alien life- forms had never been encountered . . . until now.When a scientific team exploring an obscure planet fails to make its regular communications check, the Marines of third platoon are sent to investigate. They prepare for a routine rescue operation, but what they find on Society 437 is a horror beyond description. Only a handful of ragtag pirates who were in the wrong place at the very worst time have survived, and there is little trace of the scientists.What happened to the scientists? Why have the pirates been spared? Gunnery Sergeant Bass and the men of third platoon are about to find out, and the answer carries a terrifying implication for the Marines--and the entire human race.From the Paperback edition.
Starfist: Double Jeopardyby David Sherman Dan Cragg
The thrilling pace of the Starfist space epic quickens as the explosive series rockets to dazzling new heights, packed with the hell-for-leather action only two battle-hardened and decorated combat vets like David Sherman and Dan Cragg can provide. The Confederation has finally disclosed the existence of Skinks, fierce aliens bent on wiping out humankind, and announced its plan to find and destroy their home world. While the rest of the universe grapples with the news, the Skink-savvy Marines of the Confederation's Thirty-fourth Fleet Initial Strike Team (FIST) have their own take on the situation. Though they're no longer in danger of being exiled to a ghastly netherworld for spilling the beans about the deadly aliens, the men still can't transfer out of the unit where they've been confined since they first laid eyes on the Skinks. The reason is obvious: Who else but the legendary Thirty-fourth FIST has the skills and experience to spearhead the invasion of the Skinks' home world? Morale isn't improved by a report of Skinks on the uncolonized world of Ishtar near a mercenary force engaged in slave-driven mining operations there-which means that FIST must turn around and head right back into the jaws of hell with no downtime. But none of that matters to Lieutenant Charlie Bass and the third platoon of Company L. They're Marines, they're the best, and they've got a job to do. The Marines will find a planet ripped apart by all-out war, with enemies on all sides. The only certainty is that the fighting will rage red-hot and relentless, and Charlie Bass and his men will be right in the thick of the action.
Starfist: Firestormby David Sherman Dan Cragg
Combat vets David Sherman and Dan Cragg know firsthand the courage, sacrifice, and hell of war-and their experiences have made the popular Starfist novels thrill rides of the highest order. Now the explosive action continues on the remote planet Ravenette, where the Marines of the Confederation's 34th Fleet Initial Strike Team (FIST) find themselves up against a full-fledged rebellion-and a lethally loose cannon of a commanding officer. Desperate to thwart unrelenting aliens and their quest to obliterate humankind, The Confederation has beefed up its defenses. But to the citizens on the outer edges of Human Space around Ravenette-unaware that a deadly enemy even exists-the government's move seems oppressive, and ten planets have responded with a war of secession. In touch-and-go battles with the seceding planets, the 34th FIST has emerged battered but unbowed, refusing to give up . . . even while under the command of a fanatical general. The enemy determined to strike, a new mission must be carried out, though the troops will likely return in body bags. Should Ensign Charlie Bass and his Marines somehow survive the nightmarishly difficult amphibious landing, they can expect to be outmanned, outgunned, and out-armored in a fierce duel against fresh soldiers. But like any Marine worth his salt, Bass knows there's only one way to go when facing impossible odds: on the offense with all guns firing. There's no other choice-because if life was easy, there'd be no need to send in the Marines. From the Hardcover edition.
Starfist: Flashfireby David Sherman Dan Cragg
Packed with hard-core action written by battle-savvy combat veterans, the explosive Starfist series has become hugely popular across America. Now the saga of the courageous Marines continues in Flashfire,as the 34th Fleet Initial Strike Team (FIST) ventures to the edge of Human Space to fight a number of enemies . . . some on their own side. Tensions erupt between the Confederation and several frontier worlds when civilians are shot dead at an army base on the planet Ravenette. Enraged, the Ravenette government and nine neighboring planets form a coalition, and their first act of secession is to overrun Ravenette's Confederation garrison. With the armed forces of ten worlds seizing the brutal upper hand, the embattled troops need help-now-and they need it bad. Enter the Marines of the 34th FIST. As the nearest ready-to-deploy unit, the team is sent to Ravenette with orders to hold the line until reinforcements arrive. The upcoming operation promises to be no picnic, for while sophisticates may ridicule the backward ways of the uncouth frontier folk, no one scoffs at their fighting ability. Charlie Bass doesn't mince words for his men in Company L's third platoon. Two army divisions-perhaps thirty thousand soldiers-are being overwhelmed, and somebody expects a thousand Marines to save the day. As pompous Confederation generals wreak even more havoc than the enemy, there are those who call the mission suicide . . . but not the Marines. Of course it sounds hopeless, but for Marines like Charlie Bass and the rest of the 34th FIST, accomplishing the impossible comes with the territory. From the Hardcover edition.
Starfist: Kingdom's Furyby David Sherman Dan Cragg
A lethal new special ops unit has joined Starfist. On the newly colonized planet Haulover, someone--or something--is destroying isolated farmhouses. When the Confederation receives a desperate plea for help, it's time to send in the Marines. Original.
Starfist: Kingdom's Swordsby David Sherman Dan Cragg
The Marines were told it was a simple peasant rebellion-but the mission proved to be far deadlier. . . .Gunny Charlie Bass isn't the only Marine mystified by the order sending the entire 34th to put down a few seditious serfs on planet Kingdom. Rumors swirl of a deadly alien invasion. But few believe that such sentient beings exist. Except Gunny Bass and the Marines of the 3rd platoon, who once fought enemy aliens called Skinks-fierce, fanatical fighters with hideous weapons who attack for no other reason but to kill.Then, while slogging through Kingdom's fetid swamps, the Marines are attacked by awesome unseen weapons that could destroy half a platoon with one shot. Clearly they are facing no normal enemy. And if their adversaries are Skinks, one FIST isn't enough. Third platoon's orders are to penetrate deeper into the bloody jungle hell-and find out what happens when a few good men bite the bullet. . . .From the Paperback edition.
Starfist: Lazarus Risingby David Sherman Dan Cragg
The hugely popular Starfist saga featuring Marines at war in outer space is the only military science fiction series written by real combat vets: David Sherman and Dan Cragg. Now comes the explosive hardcover debut of this series-packed with hell-torn action and blazing adventure. In their fiercest combat yet, the hard-charging Marines of 34th Fleet Initial Strike Team (FIST) have finally won their battle against a full-scale alien invasion of planet Kingdom. But victory over these savage enemies comes at a terrible price, especially for the Marines of Company L's decimated third platoon. The leader these men would follow into hell itself-Gunnery Sergeant Charlie Bass-was consumed in a fiery ambush that obliterated everything but his dog tags and a few scraps of DNA. On planet Kingdom, citizens try to return to some semblance of normalcy as the military conducts patrols to search out and destroy any remaining alien Skinks. The old government of squabbling religious leaders has been replaced by a ruthless new regime. All power rests with Dominic de Tomas, a depraved despot who will stoop to any means to achieve his vile ends. His reign of terror bodes ill for the fragile planet still reeling from the chaos of war. In a cave in some forgotten Kingdom backwater, several humans slowly regain consciousness. Their minds have been probed repeatedly . . . by whom and for what reason they cannot say, for they've been stripped of all memories of themselves and their past lives. In time wounds will heal, but who knows if they will ever fully recover. For now, finding food and water takes precedence. And so these half-dead outcasts begin a journey into the unknown-in search of civilization, in search of themselves. And one survivor's journey will take him to places of overwhelming danger, where his identity will be revealed to the shock of all.
Starfist: School of Fireby David Sherman Dan Cragg
Combat, betrayal, and murder at the edge of human space . . . Deployed to assist the oligarchs of Wanderjahr in putting down a rebellion that threatens the planet's political and economic stability, the Marines must fight two wars at the same time . . . one against the resourceful, well-led guerrillas and another with the entrenched police bureaucracy. But who is the real enemy and who can be trusted? On Wanderjahr, nothing is as it seems--not even the animal life--and everyone has his own agenda. Inexorably, the Marines of the 34th FIST are drawn deeper and deeper into the politics of a world where murder, terror, and betrayal are the accepted methods of government . . . and everyone is ripe for an old-fashioned butt-kickin'.
Starfist: Steel Gauntletby David Sherman Dan Cragg
"Marines ain't supposed to sit. We're supposed to kill." After the resource-rich planet Diamunde is seized by the armed forces of industrialist Marston St. Cyr, the Confederation Marines face their most desperate battles yet against the mechanized forces of the bloody usurper. Promised a walkover by military planners, instead the Marines must run a gauntlet of steel, with weaponry three hundred years out of date. For the Confederation's invasion army to seize the planet, the Marine FISTs first have to secure a planethead against St. Cyr's much larger forces which are equipped with superior weapons. Together with their outgunned comrades, the Marines of 34th FIST must do the impossible--or die ...
Starfist: Wings of Hellby David Sherman Dan Cragg
Sherman and Cragg deliver the 11th action-packed military science fiction adventure featuring space-faring Marines battling alien enemies on a futuristic frontier.
Starfist: A World of Hurtby David Sherman Dan Cragg
With its down and dirty depiction of warfare written by men who know what it's like to be under fire, the Starfist saga is a runaway success across America. Now, in the explosive new Starfist adventure, packed with fierce action and danger, Marines at war in future space find themselves pitted against a faceless, insatiable foe bent on destroying them. And that's just for starters. How bad is the upcoming mission facing the battle-hardened Marines of 34th Fleet Initial Strike Team (FIST), the military's unofficial alien first-contact force? Bad enough to make the brass take the unprecedented step of issuing 34th FIST replacements for combat losses before the Marines even leave their home base. In response to a series of unexplained deaths on a lonely outpost on the frontiers of human space, 34th FIST has been dispatched to investigate and eradicate the problem. Beyond that, the information available to Gunnery Sergeant Charlie Bass and his men is meager even by Marine standards. No one knows what awaits them, for the newly colonized world remains largely unexplored. That means 34th FIST can expect creatures they have never seen, or even heard of, much less trained for. It could be Skink acid shooters, could be anything, for the barren station has several secrets--all of them deadly. But the last thing these Marines expect to find is themselves in the middle of an invasion and a mysterious war with none other than 34th FIST as Enemy #1. Whatever happens, they'll deal with it, because they're Marines, determined to be ready and to give worse than they get.

Starfleet Year Oneby Michael Jan Friedman
Earth Command defeated the Romulans with the help of other races across the galaxy, and the Neutral Zone was established. Out of that necessary and uneasy collaboration came the United Federation of Planets and its combined forces, Starfleet. But the close quarters of a starship among so many races and personalities is discomforting to all the ranks. Control of what could grow to be the greatest power in the galaxy is at stake and no one is taking it lightly. A powerful new class of starship, the Daedalus, flagship of the new Federation fleet, is up for grabs among the six new Starfleet captains. Adm. Ed Walker is determined to keep this jewel, and all of Starfleet, under military command and away from the scientists. He chooses Capt. Aaron Stiles as his protégé in the endeavor. Stiles, bent on avenging the death of his brother Jake, faces stiff resistance from Walker¹s rebellious space jock nephew Dane and scientist Capt. Bryce Shumar. But they face their biggest threat of all in an unknown alien race destroying the bases of the Oreias system. Can brains and brawn combine to win without killing each other in the process?

Stargazer Book Oneby Michael Jan Friedman
Long before he took command of the Starship Enterprise , Captain Jean-Luc Picard led another proud vessel through the uncharted regions of the galaxy: the U.S.S. Stargazer. Thrust unexpectedly into the center seat, the twenty-eight-year-old Picard must live up to the challenges of starship command -- and a crew that hasn't yet learned to trust him. The pirate known as the White Wolf has been wreaking havoc across several sectors, and the inexperienced Picard has been given the assignment to stop him. Surprised at getting such a challenge, Picard soon learns that he is expected to fail in his duty and have his captaincy disgraced before it can even begin. Given an untested crew and an impossible mission, Picard must beat the odds and apprehend the White Wolf -- but the pirate keeps a shocking secret that leaves Picard to make a deadly decision.

Twelve-year-old Alexa and her companions unwittingly lead Abaddon, now in the form of an enormous, horrible sea monster, to the secret community known as the Five Stone Pillars when they go to bring the people living there home.
Stargazer Oblivion (Star Trek)by Michael Jan Friedman
In 1893 a time-traveling Jean-Luc Picard encountered a long-lived alien named Guinan, who was posing as a human to learn Earth's customs. During this "first encounter," Picard saved Guinan's life, a favor she would never forget. Five centuries later, Captain Picard, now commander of the Starship Enterprise , brought Guinan aboard as the ship's "bartender. " The hope was that her wisdom and inner peace would provide a moral grounding for Picard's crew as they experienced the dangers of space. Because he hadn't yet made his trip through time, Picard had no knowledge of his nineteenth-century meeting with Guinan. But he did remember a different first encounter with the mysterious El-Aurian -- a tumultuous adventure in which Picard and Guinan would risk their lives in a maze of interplanetary intrigue, with the future of the known universe at stake. This is the story of that fateful meeting, and of a Guinan very different from the woman we think we know -- a person wracked by pain and longing, shaken to the roots of her soul. A Guinan who yearns for oblivion.

Starhuntby David Gerrold
Only an endless space war could have produced the Roger Burlingame. A war that had caused Earth to turn starships into instruments of total destruction. A war that had so drained Earth of resources that the Roger Burlingame was kept in service long after it should have been scrapped.Now, light years from Earth, the great starship had sighted a quarry almost certain to defeat it in a fair fight. The captain's nerve was gone; the crew were on the verge of mutiny. And command had passed to a fanatical young first officer hungry for his first kill.War had turned into hell-and this was a voyage of the damned...Originally published as Yesterday's Children.

Super Rugby
Hurricanes coach Mark Hammett is hoping the weather bomb that's about to hit the country won't threaten Friday's Super Rugby friendly against the Crusaders in Levin.
The Crusaders are scheduled to fly north on game day but could face a nervous wait as a polar blast sweeps its way across the country.
Heavy rain is set to hit Christchurch over coming days with the possibility of snow, while severe gales are forecast to batter Wellington into Friday.
The Hurricanes are doing their best to keep their preparation as normal as possible, but will have one eye on the Metservice over the next two days.
"Unfortunately that [weather] could play a part," Hammett said today. "We actually haven't worried too much about the weather, we've just worried about he detail in our game especially in some of the tighter areas.
"So it [the wet weather] might actually work quite well in terms of testing it. We want to get back up to that intensity of Super Rugby and that's why we planned the game.
"We certainly hope the weather doesn't effect it to the stage where we don't get that out of it."
The match provides a bridge for the two sides during a three week break in Super Rugby to accommodate the All Blacks June test series against France.
More than 2000 tickets have been sold for the match, but a worst-case weather scenario could threaten the Crusaders ability to travel north.
It wouldn't be the first time a Hurricanes-Crusaders match has been cancelled or disrupted by mother nature.
The two side's regular season fixture in 2011 was called off following the Christchurch earthquake, while many believe the "fog final" between the teams in 2006 should not have gone ahead due to heavy fog.
Presuming Friday's match does go ahead, Hammett has named a squad of 24 players minus his seven All Blacks, two Samoan internationals and New Zealand under 20s captain Ardie Savea.
The feature of the side is the naming of former All Black and Hurricanes prop John Schwalger at tight-head.
Schwalger has re-signed with Wellington rugby and the Hurricanes for the next two seasons, but is not part of this season's Super Rugby squad after recently arriving back from France.
Taranaki hooker Timo Tutavaha and Manawatu fullback Nehe Milner-Scudder have been called up for the match.
Tutavaha could yet see more action with Motu Matu'u ruled out for the season due to his broken forearm after follow up scans.
Friday's match kicks off at 6.45pm. Children's admission is free.
HURRICANES: Andre Taylor, Richard Buckman, Reynold Lee-Lo, Ope Peleseuma, Matt Proctor, James Marshall, Chris Smylie, Brad Shields, Karl Lowe, Faifili Levave, James Broadhurst, Blade Thomson, John Schwalger, Ash Dixon, Reg Goodes. Reserves: Timo Tutavaha, Ben May, Mark Reddish, Jason Eaton, Callum Gibbins, Mike Coman, TJ Perenara, Samisoni Fisilau, Nehe Milner-Scudder.

Watch: Grizzly Bear - "Gun-Shy" Video
Micro Creativity
"Gun-Shy," the latest single off Grizzly Bear's excellent 2012 record Shields, has premiered this morning with a stunning (and at times squirm-inducing) video treatment.
Featuring members Ed Droste, Daniel Rossen, Chris Taylor, and Chris Bear undergoing a series of medical tests extracting samples of hair, skin, sweat, and blood, director Kris Moyes says "The idea came from a question: if the creative energy of any living organism could be seen, what would it look like? This is an invitation for a very rare glimpse of what creative energy could look like on a molecular level, if it could be seen."

Teresa Kok.
PETALING JAYA: DAP vice-chairman Teresa Kok was greeted with a nasty surprise during a ceramah late Wednesday night, when a stranger handed her a rotten egg, which broke when they shook hands.
Kok said the man had approached her after she had explained her controversial 'Onederful Malaysia' Chinese New Year video during a ceramah in Permatang Pauh, and shook her hand with an egg in his palm.
The spoiled egg stained the Seputeh MP's hands and clothes.
In an SMS to The Star, Kok said after the incident, which occurred at around 11.30pm, she washed her hands and left the site.
"I went back to the hotel right after the incident.
"The guy walked away and was nabbed by PAS' Unit Amal and the audience.
"I don't know what happened to him," she said.
Kok's CNY video attracted negative attention for poking fun at issues such as the education system when it was released last January.
In February, a group of people claiming to be part of the Council of Muslim NGOs offered a RM500 reward to anyone who slapped her, which was later raised to RM1,200.
On Wednesday, the police recommended that the two men allegedly behind the cash bounty be charged with criminal intimidation.

ROB c. GRAHAM A TORNEY APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING PRINTING PLATES PRECOATED ON ONE SIDE ONLY This invention relates to an apparatus for processing a printing plate precoated on one side only, and more particularly relates to a dispensing apparatus for lithographic developer.
It has long been known in the lithographic industry that a subtractive presensitized offset printing plate may be developed by what is known as the hand developing process. In this process the carrier, which is usually a thin sheet of aluminum, is first coated by the manufacturer with a light-sensitive coating usually containing, among other things, one or more resins, and the plate is then sold in the presensitized condition to the customer.
The customer exposes the printing plate through a stencil to a source of strong light, such as a carbon are for example. The lightsensitive coating when subjected to such a light is converted in such a manner that, after development, the image areas are retained on the plate surface and the non-image areas are removed. After development, for example by rubbing a developing agent into the surface of the plate by means of a sponge, the plate may be fixed and/or washed and, finally. a coating of gum arabic or similar material is applied to the surface of the plate to protect the image free areas thereof. The plate is then ready for the printing press.
More specifically, where this hand developing process is employed to produce a printing plate, the following procedure is generally followed: From a typewritten setup or makeup, equivalent to the material to be printed and provided in any desired manner including typed articles. pictures of various kinds of art work of different sizes, and the like, all assembled onto a suitable cardboard or other support, a master is prepared in the conventional manner. The image of the master is then transferred onto the sensitized printing member, such as is described above, by a suitable exposure means.
The printing member thus prepared is then subjected to a developing operation using the chemistry prescribed by the manufacturer of the printing member. This chemistry" is worked into the exposed coating by hand rubbing, for example with a sponge, until the nonimage areas are subtracted or removed from the carrier leaving an exact replica of the image on the plate carrier. The printing member is then fixed and/or washed and a solution of gum arabic, or a similar solution, is applied to the plate surface, resulting in a printing plate which is ready for the press.
The disadvantages of hand development of offset printing plates are numerous. The process is slow and expensive. Uniformity of pressure in applying the de veloping solution to remove the undesired coating is almost impossible to attain and exposure to the developing solution is uneven. Thus, defective printing often results from an inadequate development or underdevelopment of an area or from applying varying pressure by hand, which may adversely affect the desired printing image. Drying of the developer on certain portions of the plate before it can be rubbed in to remove the undesired coating also may leave a residue on the plate. A further difficulty with the hand method is in the application of the developing solution. It is presently the practice of the craftman to pour a quantity of developer onto a developing sponge or pad and onto the center of the plate, which quantity is supposedly sufficient to process the plate, and the craftman then works his sponge from that reservoir. This procedure may lead to a high degree of contamination of the processing fluids by the removed photosensitive coating as well as a change in the chemistry of the fluid because of evaporation, which will, in turn, either reduce the efficiency of the chemistry, resulting in incomplete removal of the undesired coating in highly critical areas of halftones, or increase its potency resulting in image attack.
The present invention overcomes the difficulties associated with conventional hand developing of a plate coated on one side only by providing a novel dispensing apparatus for lithographic developer. The dispensing apparatus avoids changes in the processing solutions by a unique method of metering the processing fluids in controlled quantities onto the plate surface without damaging the plate surface, rendering it possible to economically use the processing solutions only once, and without smearing or dragging used solutions into fresh solutions or onto adjacent plate areas.
Prior to the present invention, there was no successful way to deposit a minimum amount of fluid automatically onto a printing plate for a one-time use of such fluid so that a machine operation was economical. Attempts were made to process plates by recirculating the fluids through conventional spraying systems onto the surface of the plate and by dipping the plate into tanks of fluids, but it has been characteristic of many such fluids to become prematurely weakened by unavoidable aeration or by contamination of spent material from the non-image areas, resulting in a short period of time in an unusable solution. Further, when only small quantities of fluid are required to process a plate, such as one ounce of fluid per square foot of plate surface, it is essential to hold fluid consumption at this level in order to avoid extra costs.
The problem of metering small quantities of fluid over a large surface area is effectively overcome by the novel dispensing apparatus of the present invention. In the novel apparatus, fluid is pumped under pressure into a manifold, which may have a width of about one inch and a height of about one-half inch. On the bottom of the manifold a plurality of apertures dispense the fluid, under pressure created by a pump, into a second bar which has a width of about one inch and a length corresponding to the width of the machine. The bottom bar contains a slot which may have a width of about 1/16 inch, for example. The bar is made of plastic so that it does not scratch the surface of the plate in contact therewith. The entire assembly is spring-loaded and rests on a backup plate made of hard rubber.
When the processing apparatus is actuated, a pair of nip rolls transport a plate into a developing station and between the backup plate and the dispensing apparatus. The pump pressure forces a quantity of developer into the slot in the dispensing apparatus and, since there is a backup plate facing and in contact with the spring-loaded bar of the dispensing apparatus, the slot in the bar fills with developer prior to the entrance of the plate and causes a slight rising of the entire assembly, by about 0.015 inch. with little or no outflow of the developer. This rise, in turn, allows the plate to enter between the bar and the backup plate without actually contacting the dispensing apparatus.
As the moving plate receives fluid developer from the slot in the bar and carries the developer away, the developer is constantly replaced from the manifold as a result of the pressure of the pump supplying developer from the reservoir. Simultaneously, this continuing feed of developer maintains the dispensing assembly above the surface of the plate to be developed and the inverted menicus created dispenses a minimum coating of developer, regulated by the pressure of the feed pump, uniformly upon the plate.
After passing the developing station, a reciprocating rubber squeegee assures that the developer is adequately rubbed into the surface of the plate. By proper composition of the developer, the action thereof can be made rather rapid so that shortly thereafter it can be squeegeed off and drained away into a waste disposal by a pair of squeegee rolls.
A second application of developer, if required, may be applied in a similar mechanism. A third similar mechanism can be employed to apply a fixing solution, if necessary, for the proper preparation of the plate. This may be combined with a rubbing action of a piece of velour-like material reciprocating transversely to the direction of plate travel at a rate of about 175 strokes per minute. in a stroke of about one-half inch. The plate then enters a washing station and a lacquering station, if required, followed by a second washing or gumming station before exiting from the apparatus as a completed plate ready for the printing press or for further work prior to going to the printing press.
The invention will be further illustrated by reference to the accompanying drawings in which FIG. I is a schematic view of a processing line for processing printing plates precoated on one side only,
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of the processing line of FIG. 1 showing the developer dispensing apparatus, and
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 33 of FIG. 2 and looking in the direction of the arrows.
Referring to FIG. I, a planographic printing plate sensitized on one side and imaged by exposure to a desired master is inserted into the processing line at the point of the arrow 2. The inserted plate passes over the trigger mechanism 4 and thus actuates the entire processing line, i.e., the feed rolls as well as all transportsqueegee rolls begin rotating. Simultaneously, pumps connected to the various chemical supply tanks, not shown, begin operating and dispensing chemistry as required. Also the developer dispensing apparatuses or heads as well as the rinse-scrubber head begin reciproeating.
The plate passes through a pair of feed rolls 6, which rolls pass the plate between the first developer dispens ing head 8 and its associated support rail 10, and a controlled amount of developer at a controlled temperature is dispensed from the developer dispensing head 8 onto the plate surface and carried away. This amount can be regulated by adjusting the pressure in the developer supply line by setting a bypass, not shown, and a volume regulator which will be described below in connection with FIG. 3.
Inasmuch as the entire developer dispensing head reciprocates, and since the dispensing head has a spreader blade 12 attached thereto, chemistry is evenly spread over the entire surface of the plate and adequately and completely rubbed into the surface of the plate coating.
The plate then passes through a first set of transportsqueegee rolls 14 which rolls transport the plate into the second developer dispensing assembly 16 having an associated backup plate 18. The construction of the second developer dispensing assembly 16 and its associated backup plate 18 is identical with the construction of the first developer dispensing head 8 and its associated backup plate 10.
The second developer dispensing head reapplies a fresh amount of developer solution in the same manner as the first developer dispensing head 8. With this arrangement, a rapid and thorough development of the plate is obtained inasmuch as the "chemistry" is previously adjusted to process the exposed image within the time allowed by the speed of the plate travel and the distance between each set of rolls.
The plate then reaches a second pair of transportsqueegee rolls 20 which remove all excess developer and, in turn, propel the plate under the rinse-scrubber head 22 which removes residual developer from the plate before it enters the third transport-squeegee roll assembly 24. The latter rolls advance the plate under the gum dispensing tube 26 and into the transportsqueegee rolls 28, which latter move the plate between the air dryer tubes 30 and into the exit rolls 32 which, in turn, propel the developed, gummed and dried planographic printing plate out of the processing line ready to be mounted on a press.
Referring to FIG. 2, a plate 34 is shown as it passes between the feed rolls 6 and under the first developer dispensing head 8. As will be seen from FIG. 2, developer is supplied through the developer line 36 and the dispensing head is reciprocated transversely to the direction of plate travel by means of the reciprocator shaft 38.
The dispensing head is shown in more detail in FIG. 3. The dispensing head includes the bottom bar 40 which abuts against the hard rubber surface 42 of the backup plate 10 when no plate is received between the two. The bottom bar 40 has a slot 44 therein which extends across the length of the bottom bar 40 but not completely to the ends thereof, so that developer pumped into the slot cannot run out of the ends thereof. The developer is supplied to the slot 44 by means of the passage 46 which connects to the reservoir 48 in the manifold 50. The reservoir 48 is connected to the developer supply line 36 by means of a bore in the rod 52. The rod 52 slides freely in the supporting bracket 54, to which the reciprocator shaft 38 is connected by the machine screws 56, and the entire assembly is reciprocated by the shaft 38 connected to a reciprocating apparatus, not shown.
The bar 40, which may be made of plastic, is biased against the surface of the plate 34 by means of the spring 58 and any degree of pressure desired may be obtained by balancing the spring pressure against the pressure of the developer supplied to the slot 44.
The volume of developer supplied to the slot 44 may be regulated by the developer supply volume regulator 60 having a hand wheel 62 thereon. The supply volume regulator is of conventional construction and, accordingly, will not be further described.
The entire processing line is enclosed in a housing, not shown.
The processing line is intended to be used with fresh chemistry at all times, i.e., there is no recirculation. By so doing, all parameters are maintained constant and since, in addition, the temperature of the developer is controlled to within 5F., processing of printing plates is predictable and reproducible.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that many modifications may be made within the scope of the present invention without departing from the spirit thereof, and the invention includes all such modifications.
What is claimed is:
l. A dispensing apparatus for lithographic processing fluids, comprising; bar means adapted to extend across a printing plate to be processed, having a single outlet means comprising a slot in that side of said bar means facing said plate to be processed and an inlet means in fluid communication with said outlet means, mounted to move perpendicular to the surface of said plate to be processed and normally biased toward the side of said plate to be processed; means for supplying processing fluid, under pressure sufficient to overcome the biasing of said bar means and move said bar means away from the surface of said plate to be processed; and means for reciprocating said bar means transversely to the direction of travel of said plate to be processed.
2. A dispensing apparatus according to claim 1 including spring means biasing said bar means toward a plate to be developed.
3. A dispensing apparatus according to claim 1 including spreader blade means secured to said bar means.
4. A dispensing apparatus in accordance with claim 1 wherein the bar means is biased toward the plate to be processed by means of a spring.

Obama Re-Elected to 2nd Term with Near Sweep of Battleground States
President Obama has been re-elected to a second term with a resounding victory over Republican challenger Mitt Romney. By the end of the night, Obama won 50 percent of the popular vote, securing 303 electoral votes to Romney's 206. Obama swept nearly all of the key battleground states, taking Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Iowa, Wisconsin, Colorado, New Hampshire, and a likely victory in Florida. While the major networks began calling the election for Obama at 11:20 p.m. EST, Romney did not publicly concede until nearly two hours later. After avoiding the issue of climate change throughout the campaign, Obama returned to it in his Chicago victory speech, telling supporters: "We want our children to live in an America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened up by inequality, that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet."

From Marriage Equality to Legalizing Marijuana, Election Day Ballot Measures Won by Movements
While much attention was fixed on the presidential race, the 2012 election also saw voters decide on a series of landmark ballot initiatives at the state level. Advocates of marriage equality ended Tuesday with four out of four victories, as voters legalized same-sex marriage in Maine and Maryland, upheld same-sex marriage in Washington state, and defeated a measure to ban same-sex marriage in Minnesota. Maryland voters also affirmed the DREAM Act, allowing undocumented immigrants to receive in-state tuition. In Montana, voters overwhelmingly approved a measure that would limit corporate spending on elections, while Colorado voters also resoundingly approved a measure backing a constitutional amendment that would call for the same. In a historic move, voters in Colorado and Washington have legalized marijuana for recreational use, becoming the first states to do so. In California, voters defeated a ballot measure to repeal the death penalty and another that would have required labeling of genetically modified foods. A separate measure to ease penalties for nonviolent offenses under California's "three-strikes" law was approved. California voters also rejected a measure that would have curbed the political influence of unions. We're joined by three guests: Justine Sarver, executive director of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center; NAACP President Ben Jealous; and broadcaster and author Laura Flanders.

April 23, 2015 - I bought this for a friend, it was beautiful and she loved it!!!!
April 17, 2015 - I bought this for my wife. She loves it but the chain broke shortly after I gave it to her. The gold cat has lost some of it's color but she still loves it. So I'm happy with it.
