1. Field of Invention
This invention relates to fast curing, two part adhesives and to articles bonded therewith. The curable adhesives described herein comprise a first part component of free radical initiated polymerizable acrylic monomers and a diazonium salt. A second part, which is brought in contact therewith just prior to use, comprises a condensation reaction product of an aldehyde and a primary or secondary amine to induce the free radical decomposition of the diazonium salt.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Disclosed in the prior art are many curable adhesive compositions which cure or set by free radical polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomers. The prior art relative to curable adhesives discloses free radical initiators which are of the organic peroxy or hydroperoxy type including peresters or peracids. Especially useful are the peresters and peroxides such as t-butyl perbenzoate and cumene hydroperoxide. Also disclosed in the prior art are curing adhesive compositions employing aldehyde-amine condensation reaction products as free radical accelerators and primers for these peroxy compounds. Also disclosed in the prior art are anaerobic curing adhesive compositions employing diazonium salts as latent polymerization catalysts.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,591,438 to Toback et al is directed to adhesive compositions containing a mixture of a polymerizable acrylate ester monomer and a peroxy polymerization initiator employed with a primer comprising a mixture of an aldehyde-amine condensation product and a reducing activator selected from the group consisting of defined sulfur containing free radical accelerators and compounds containing an oxidizable transition metal.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,616,040 to Toback discloses peroxy-initiated cure of acrylate based compositions where the cure is accelerated by use of a condensation reaction product Of dn aldehyde and a primary or secondary amine.
U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,890,407 and 4,106,971, both to Briggs et al, disclose employment of a condensation reaction product of an aldehyde and a primary or secondary amine to cure adhesive compositions comprising a solution of chlorosulfonated polyethylene or mixtures of sulfonyl chlorides and chlorinated polymers in polymerizable vinyl monomers. Other ingredients such an an organic salt of a transition metal, a peroxy compound and a tertiary amine may also be included in the adhesive compositions.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,182,644 to Briggs et al discloses use of a condensation reaction product of an aldehyde and a primary or secondary amine to accelerate the cure of adhesive compositions comprising a polymer, a monomer, and a free-radical generator derived from an organic sulfonyl chloride and/or a chlorosulfonated polymer.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,880,956 to Skoultchi discloses anaerobic curing compositions comprising mixtures of polymerizable acrylic and substituted acrylic monomers and diazonium salts as latent polymerization catalysts therefor. The invention is directed to anaerobic, one part adhesives.
There is a recognized need in the adhesive art for adhesives which are stable to heat and stable to storage for periods of at least six months. On use, however, the cure of the adhesive must be rapid providing strong bonds within a short period of time. In the present invention the diazonium salts provide improved heat and storage stability to the adhesives as compared to adhesives employing peroxy or hydroperoxy systems. Depending largely on the diazonium salt and the monomer base selected, typical fast curing adhesives can be formulated to remain stable, i.e., not cure or lose reactivity, for periods of six months to one year. Also depending on the selection of the diazonium salt and the selection of the aldehyde-amine condensation reaction product and other components, adhesives can be formulated having a wide range of cure speeds. Thus, adhesives can be formulated within the invention having a slow, moderate (about 60-120 seconds) or fast (about 15-30 seconds) cure. The invention provides a versatility in formulating a variety of adhesives useful in specific end-use applications.
We have now found that stable, curable adhesives can be formulated based on the free radical initiated cure of adhesive acrylic monomers employing a diazonium salt in the presence of an aldehyde-amine condensation reaction product. The adhesives are stable (prior to combining of the two parts) and can exhibit a fast cure and strong bonds.
The two part adhesives herein comprise a first part (monomer base component) formed of a mixture of free radical polymerizable acrylic or substituted acrylic monomer(s), as later described, together with diazonium salt(s) in an amount sufficient to initiate polymerization, ordinarily from about 0.01 to 10% or more, based on the weight of the monomer(s). A second part comprises an activator which functions to induce decomposition of the diazonium salt to produce free-radicals. The activators herein are selected from the condensation reaction products of aldehydes and primary or secondary amines. The adhesives are formed just prior to use where the second part containing the activator is placed in contact with the first part. In forming the adhesive the activator component is usually applied as a primer or coating to the substrate to be bonded. The monomer component can be applied either to the surface which has been treated with the activator or to the appropriate uncoated mating surface. Alternatively, the two parts may be mixed together in suitable proportions just prior to application.
The activator condensation product may be used on an "as is" basis or it may be dissolved in a suitable solvent. In some applications, the solvent may include an acrylic or methacrylic monomer and/or include a propellant thereby permitting application of the activator by aerosol spraying of the substrate. A suitable volatile solvent is methylchloroform. Representative monomers which may be used in the activator component include isobornyl methacrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate and cyclohexyl methacrylate. Monomers containing hydroxyl or carboxyl groups such as, for example, hydroxyethyl methacrylate or methacrylic acid are incompatible with the present activators and may polymerize spontaneously.
One class of polymerizable monomers useful in the present compositions correspond to the general formula: ##STR1## wherein
R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen methyl, ethyl, ##STR2##
R' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, methyl and ethyl;

Typical monomers of this class include, for example, dimethacrylate of bis(ethylene glycol) adipate, dimethacrylate of bis(ethylene glycol) maleate, dimethacrylate of bis(diethylene glycol) phthalate, dimethacrylate of bis(tetraethylene glycol) phthalate, dimethacrylate of bis(tetraethylene glycol) sebacate, dimethacrylates of bis(tetraethylene glycol) maleate, and the diacrylates and chloroacrylates corresponding to said dimethacrylates, and the like.
The above class of monomers is in essence described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,457,212 issued July 22, 1969 (Sumitomo Chemical Company, Ltd.).
Also useful herein are monomers which are isocyanate-hydroxyacrylate or isocyanate-aminoacrylate reaction products which may be characterized as acrylate terminated polyurethanes and polyureides or polyureas. These monomers correspond to the general formula: ##STR6## wherein
X is selected from the group consisting of --O-- and ##STR7##
R is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 7 carbon atoms;
A represents the organic residue of an active hydrogen containing acrylic ester wherein the active hydrogen has been removed, the ester being hydroxy or amino substituted on the alkyl portion thereof and the methyl, ethyl and chlorine homologs thereof;
n is an integer from 1 to 6 inclusive; and
B is a mono- or polyvalent organic radical selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkylene, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylene, aryl, aralkyl, alkaryl, poly(oxyalkylene), poly(carboalkoxyalkylene), and heterocyclic radicals both substituted and unsubstituted.
Typical monomers of this class include the reaction product of mono- or polyisocyanate, for example, toluene diisocyanate, with an acrylate ester containing a hydroxy or amino group in the non-acrylate portion thereof, for example, hydroxyethyl methacrylate.
The above class of monomers is in essence described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,425,988 issued Feb. 4, 1969 (Loctite Corp).
Another class of monomers useful in the present application are the mono- and polyacrylate and methacrylate esters of bisphenol type compounds. These monomers may be described by the formula: ##STR8## where
R1 is methyl, ethyl, carboxyl or hydrogen;
R2 is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl;
R3 is hydrogen, methyl or hydroxyl;
R4 is hydrogen, chlorine, methyl or ethyl and
n is an integer having a value of 0 to 8.
Representative monomers of the above-described class include: dimethacrylate and diacrylate esters of 4,4'-bis-hydroxyethoxy-bisphenol A; dimethacrylate and diacrylate esters of bisphenol A; etc. These monomers are essentially described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 70-15640 (to Toho Chemical Manuf. Ltd.).
In addition to the monomers already described, other useful monomers are monofunctional acrylate and methacrylate esters and the hydroxy, amide, cyano, chloro, and silane substituted derivatives thereof. Such monomers include, for example, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, butyl acrylate, n-octyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, decylmethacrylate, dodecyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate, tert.-butyl methacrylate, acrylamide, N-methylolacrylamide, diacetone acrylamide, N-tert.-butyl acrylamide, N-tert.-octyl acrylamide, N-butoxyacrylamide, gamma-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane, 2-cyanoethyl acrylate, 3-cyanopropyl acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl chloroacrylate, glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, and the like.
The monomers useful herein are seen to be polymerizable monomers having one or more acrylic or substituted acrylic groups as a common, unifying characteristic, and for convenience may be generically termed acrylic and substituted acrylic monomers.
It is understood that the various monomers useful herein are not required to be in a highly purified state. The monomers may be comprised of commercial grades in which inhibitors, stabilizers, or other additives or impurities may be present, as well as those prepared in the laboratory or in pilot plant scale.
In preparing these curable compositions, it is within the scope of the present invention that the required acrylic monomer may be a mixture of acrylic monomers rather than a single acrylic monomer, and there may also be utilized, in combination therewith, other non-acrylic, ethylenically unsaturated copolymerizable comonomers such as unsaturated hydrocarbons, unsaturated esters and ethers, vinyl esters, and the like. Typical optional comonomers include: vinyl acetate, methyl vinyl ether, methyl vinyl ketone, poly(ethylene maleate), allyl alcohol, allyl acetate, 1-octene, styrene, etc.
In certain applications, and largely dependent on the particular acrylic monomer being utilized, such non-acrylic, polymerizable comonomer(s) may be added to constitute up to about 60%, by weight, of the monomer composition. Preferably, however, the optional non-acrylic comonomer will constitute no more than 50%, by weight, of the monomer composition, and most preferably, it will constitute no more than 30%, by weight, of the monomer composition.
Optionally, the compositions may also contain a minor amount, up to 50%, by weight, of a polymeric thickener, for example, a low or high molecular weight polymer or prepolymer. Illustrative of such polymeric thickeners is a commercially available methacrylate polymer sold by E. I. duPont de Nemours & Company, under the trademark ELVACITE. For example, through inclusion of particular types of modifying polymers, compositions in accordance with the present invention are obtained which provide impact-resistant, high-strength bonds on curing and which therefore are particularly suitable as structural adhesives. The properties of the cured adhesive are largely determined by the selection of the monomers.
In order to further modify the properties of these compositions, they may optionally contain plasticizers such, for example, as dibutyl phthalate or triethylene glycol. Other optional ingredients include, inorganic thickeners, organic and inorganic fillers, cut glass fibers, as well as visible dyes or ultraviolet fluorescent dyes.
The adhesive compositions herein utilize stable or stabilized diazonium salts corresponding to the general formula: ##STR9## In the above formula, a is an integer of 1, 2 or 3 taken so as to equalize the valence charge of the salt and Ar is any aryl or substituted aryl radical and includes diazonium substituted aryl radicals. X is an anion such as is ordinarily found in know diazonium salts and is taken so as to act as a counterion to the aryl diazonium cation moiety of the salt. X includes, for example, F-, Cl-, Br-, SO4 --, HSO4 -, Ar'SO3 -, Ar'(SO3)2 --, and Ar'(SO3)3 --- ; Ar' is an aryl or substituted aryl radical. Y represents a stabilizing agent for the diazonium salt such as are well known in the art and may or may not be present. Y includes, for example, ZnCl2, BF3, HgCl2, PtCl2, PtCl4, and AuCl3. In usual practice, the stabilizing agent complexes with the diazonium salt and therefore is present in approximately stoichiometric amounts. Many diazonium salts in which the anion is selected from the group SO4 --, HSO4 -, Ar'SO3 -, and Ar'(SO3)2 ---, may not require a stabilizing agent.
For illustrative purposes, typical diazonium salts useful in the compositions of the invention include, for example, bis(2-methyl-4-chlorobenzenediazonium) naphthalenedisulfonate, bis(2-methoxy-4-nitrobenzenediazonium) naphthalenedisulfonate, bis[4-(N,N-diethylamino)-2-methoxybenzenediazonium] tetrafluoroborate, bis(3-nitro-4-chlorobenzenediazonium) tetrachlorozincate, bis (4-nitrobenzenediazonium) sulfate, 1,4-tetramethylene bis(4,4'-diazo) benzoate zinc chloride complex and bis[4-(N-phenylamino) benzenediazonium] sulfate.
The amount of diazonium salt required is an amount effective to initiate polymerization of the monomer. For most applications the amount of diazonium salt will range from about 0.01 or less to 10% or more, based on the weight of the monomer. The preferred amount will range from about 0.2 to 2%, based on the weight of the monomer. It can be understood that mixtures of diazonium salts may also be employed herein.
If the dissolving of the initiator in the monomer presents a problem, or if a relatively larger amount of particular initiator is necessary in connection with a monomer in which solubility is difficult, then solvents which dissolve the diazonium salt and themselves are soluble in the monomer may be employed. Common solvents for diazonium salts are described in the literature and include, for example, alkanols such as methanol, ethanol, butanol, substituted and unsubstituted formamides such as formamide and N,N-dimethyl formamide, and water. Methanol and ethanol are the preferred solvents. In most instances, only a minimum amount of solvent is used to dissolve the diazonium salt.
The compositions can be formulated with or without a stabilizer compound added to the monomeric composition to prevent or retard the premature decomposition of the diazonium salt initiator. Useful stabilizer compounds are materials classified in the chemical literature as Lewis acids and their salts. They include the stabilizing agents previously described in connection with the stabilizing of the diazonium salts as well as, for example, sulfosalicylic acid, sulfuric acid, toluene sulfonic acid, naphthalene disulfonic acid, naphthalene trisulfonic acid, and the lithium, sodium, and potassium salts of these acids, aluminum chloride, phosphoric acid, alkyl phosphoric acids, alkyl phosphates, etc. When such optional stabilizer compounds are used, they are used in concentrations of from about 0.001 to 1%, by weight, of the total composition. The desirability or necessity of utilizing these stabilizer compounds can easily be recognized by the practitioner in the art.
Optionally, part one of the adhesive system may also contain saccharin. The saccharin component may either be present as saccharin or as the copper salt of saccharin or as a mixture thereof. The saccharin component is generally present in amounts of from 0.01 to 10%, by weight, of the monomer or to the limit of solubility of the materials in the monomer. Preferably, the saccharin component will be present in amounts of 0.1 to 5%, by weight, of the monomer. Other soluble copper (II) salts may be advantageously included in the adhesives herein. For example, copper naphthenate or copper octoate, can be included in an amount of 0.001% to 0.5%, typically 0.02%, by weight, of the monomer. Saccharin, optionally, may be included in the accelerator portion of the adhesive system, preferably in the absence of copper salts.
In order to prepare the first part of the adhesive compositions herein, it is merely necessary to mix the desired amount of diazonium salt with the selected acrylic monomer or monomers which may optionally contain non-acrylic copolymerizable monomer. Optional ingredients, as mentioned above, are ordinarily included as desired in the first part.
In preparing the aldehyde-amine condensation reaction product, the aldehyde will preferably be an aliphatic aldehyde having 1-12 carbon atoms. Thus aldehydes such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde and butyraldehyde can be used in preparing the condensation product herein. The amines used in the condensation reaction are not critical and may be any primary, or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amine. Thus amines such as ethyl amine, butyl amine, diethyl amine, dipropyl amine, aniline, diphenyl amine and many others are suitable. Useful condensation products can be prepared using a range of proportions of aldehyde to amine, but ordinarily the reactants will be employed with an excess of aldehyde. Useful condensation products are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,591,438 to Toback et al., and 3,616,040 to Toback. Particularly preferred condensation reaction products are the butyraldehyde-aniline and butyraldehyde-butylamine condensation products sold by E. I. duPont de Nemours & Co. under the tradenames "Accelerator 808" and "Accelerator 833", respectively.
The monomer component can be applied either to the surface which has been treated with the activator or to the appropriate mating surface to be bonded. The bonding operation is then carried out in a conventional manner by placing the two mating surfaces in abutting relationship and applying a moderate compressive force, if desired, to produce a relatively thin layer of adhesive between the two surfaces. A final adhesive thickness of from 0.01 to 0.15 mm is preferred when using the adhesives of the present invention.
The amount of the activator component employed should be sufficient to ensure efficient initiation of the compositions during curing. Generally, amounts of activator equal to about 0.001 to about 5.0%, by weight, of the acrylic monomer are sufficient and amounts in substantive excess thereof will be unnecessary and may even adversely affect the strength of the final bond. While it is not easy to determine the amount of activator applied to a given surface, adequate results are obtained with a single application by aerosol or otherwise of a thin film of the activator component to at least one of the surfaces to be bonded.
In order to maintain or increase the bond strength of the resultant cured polymer, one may utilize an acrylic monomer having an alcoholic or other relatively polar group substituted thereon. Examples of such polar groups in addition to the hydroxy group include, carboxyl, amino, amido, cyano, mercapto, and halogen polar groups. Hydroxy group containing monomers are preferred. Esters having a labile hydrogen atom or atoms are also desirable. Examples of acrylic monomers within this category include hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, diacetone acrylamide, 2-cyanoethyl acrylate, 3-cyanopropyl acrylate, 2-chloroethyl acrylate, glycerol monomethacrylate, 2-hydroxy-3-chloropropyl methacrylate, etc.
Where the effect of a polar substituted monomer is desired without its actual use, in some instances a small amount (usually no more than 8%, by weight, of the total composition) of an alkanol may be admixed to the composition. Such useful alkanols include, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol, etc. While analogous mercapto compounds may be used in place of the alkanols with a comparable beneficial effect, their use is not favored mainly because of their unpleasant, strong odor.
The compositions of this invention cure (polymerize or set) at ambient temperatures but heat may be used to accelerate the rate of curing. Compositions containing significant amounts of hydroxy substituted acrylic monomer are further crosslinked by the application of heat resulting in increased bond strength.
The following examples will further describe and illustrate the practice of this invention but they are not intended to limit its scope. In these examples the compositions were prepared by mixing the indicated ingredients in amounts given as parts by weight (pbw) unless otherwise specified. In the examples, the following testing procedures are employed to measure the comparative properties of the various adhesives.
Tensile Shear Strength:
The tensile shear strength is measured by first adhesively bonding two steel bars (0.125" by 4" by 0.5") with the test adhesive. The bars are bonded to their 0.5" surface with a 0.5" overlap yielding a bond area of 0.25 square inches. The bonded samples are held in a jig for about 24 hours at room temperature to ensure full curing of the adhesive. The samples are then mechanically pulled apart with an Instron Tensile Tester providing the pulling force set at a speed of 0.01 inches per minute. The desired tensile values at failure are noted in pounds per square inch.
Impact Strength:
The impact strength is measured by first adhesively bonding two steel blocks where the lower block measures 1" by 13/4" and the upper block measures 1" by 1" and following the procedure of ASTM-D-950-72.
These examples illustrate various curable adhesive compositions of the invention and their cure speed, tensile shear strength on steel and impact strength on steel. The adhesive of Example 1 contains no diazonium salt and is a comparative example not within the invention.
A polyurethane oligomer was first prepared for use as a portion of the monomer base of part one of the adhesive. The polyurethane oligomer was prepared in conventional manner by reacting polypropylene glycol 100 with an excess of toluene diisocyanate. The residual isocyanate end groups were reacted with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and the treated polyurethane oligomer (PUO) was then diluted with HEMA to form a 30% solution of the oligomer and in that form was employed to formulate adhesive compositions as identified below.

Each of the adhesive monomer bases was applied to one surface of a glass substrate. A 30% solution of Accelerator 808 in isobornyl methacrylate was applied on another glass substrate and the two coated surfaces were placed in abutting relationship. The "cure time" (i.e. the time required to prevent movement of the two substrates by hand) was then determined and recorded as shown in Table I, as were the strengths of the adhesive bonds.

Additional adhesive compositions were prepared using a variety of diazonium salts as given below.
The formulation of Example 3 was repeated employing, in place of 4-diazo-N,N-diethylaniline tetrafluoroborate, diazonium salts as follows:
Ex. 11: 1-diazo-2-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid
Ex. 12: 2-diazo-4-chloroanisole tetrachlorozincate
Ex. 13: 4-diazo-2,5-diethoxyphenylmorpholine tetrachlorozincate
Ex. 14: 4-diazo-1-morpholinobenzene tetrafluoroborate
Ex. 15: 4-diazodiphenylamine sulfate
Ex. 16: 4-diazo-N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethyl tetrachlorozincate
Test results obtained with these adhesive compositions are given in Table II.

Additional adhesive compositions were prepared where the monomer composition of the first part was varied. Thus, in preparing the polyurethane oligomer, in Example 17, the polypropylene glycol 100 employed in Examples 1-16 was replaced by tetraethylene glycol. In Example 18, the toluene diisocyanate employed in Examples 1-16 was replaced by methylene di(phenyl isocyanate), and in Example 19 the toluene diisocyanate was replaced by methylene di(phenyl isocyanate) and tetraethylene glycol was used in place of polypropylene glycol 100.
The formulation of Example 2 was repeated with the modified polyurethane oligomers, and a cure time for each of the compositions was obtained as follows:
Example 17: 160 sec.
Example 18: 120 sec.
Example 19: 140 sec.
These examples illustrate adhesive compositions where acrylic polyesters are employed in preparing part 1 of the adhesive system. Thus, in Example 20, 40 parts of poly(butylene maleate) dimethacrylate (MW 2000) was dissolved in 60 parts of hydroxyethyl methacrylate and used as the monomeric component of the first part. In Example 21, 40 parts of poly(propylene glycol) dimethacrylate (MW 1025) was dissolved in 60 parts of hydroxyethyl methacrylate and used as the monomeric component of the first part. The formulation of the adhesives is given as follows:

The accelerator part of the system employed a 30% by weight solution of Accelerator 833 in isobornyl methacrylate.
A cure time for each of the compositions was obtained as follows:
Example 20: 90 sec.
Example 21: 65 sec.
As will be recognized by those skilled in the art, the present invention provides stable, curable adhesive compositions which can be prepared to provide a wide range of cure speeds. The majority of adhesives will have a cure time of less than four minutes with some adhesives having a cure time of less than one minute. Variations may be made in ingredients, proportions and procedures as long as such variations are within the scope and spirit of the following claims.

Seemingly making good on promises of reform, newly appointed Minister of Land Management Chea Sophara appears to have intervened in a nearly 20-year-old land dispute on behalf of 16 families in Tbong Khmum province's Suong town, who on Sunday wrote a letter to thank him.
According to the letter, the villagers had been locked in a land dispute with the Vihea To Tem pagoda, which they claimed encroached on property that they had occupied – albeit without land titles – for decades. However, the dispute was swiftly resolved after Sophara visited the area and reviewed the documents, they said.
Political commentator Ou Virak has been summonsed to appear at Phnom Penh Municipal Court on May 12 in relation to a defamation suit filed by Cambodian People's Party spokesman Sok Eysan last week.
Virak, who yesterday said he had yet to receive the summons and had only seen a copy of it in the media, said the summons should have been issued only after Eysan, who will appear before the court on Friday, had testified and the complaint was deemed a valid case.
With the screws tightening on Adhoc, pro-government NGOs are calling for the government to use the newly enacted NGO Law to punish the rights group and other organisations caught up in the Kem Sokha mistress scandal using a provision that can be used to shut down civil society groups.
The Cambodian Federation for Human Rights and Development (CFHRAD) and the Association of Youth for State Reform (AYFSR) argue that Adhoc and a UN staffer violated Article 24 of the controversial Law on Non-Government Organisations and Associations (LANGO), which stipulates NGOs should be politically "neutral".
The Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday sent four Adhoc staffers to Prey Sar prison and an election official to Phnom Penh's PJ correctional facility after charging them with bribing a witness in the scandal surrounding CNRP acting president Kem Sokha and an alleged mistress.
The four Adhoc staffers – Ny Sokha, Yi Soksan, Nay Vanda and Lem Mony – were charged by investigating judge Theam Chanpiseth for bribing a witness under Article 548 of the Criminal Code. Ny Chakrya, a former Adhoc official and National Election Committee deputy secretary-general, and Sally Soen, an employee with the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), were charged as accomplices under articles 29 and 548.
Four senior officers from local rights group Adhoc and a former officer who now works for the National Election Committee (NEC) were imprisoned on Monday on bribery charges over a sex scandal involving deputy opposition leader Kem Sokha.
U.N. official Sally Soen was charged in absentia as an accomplice after failing to present himself for questioning.
About 2,000 workers in Phnom Penh on Sunday defied a government ban on celebrating International Labor Day with a march by getting as close as they could to the National Assembly, where they called for higher wages and changes to the newly approved Trade Union Law.
Four senior officials of local rights group Adhoc and a National Election Committee (NEC) official were arrested by the Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) on Thursday night over allegations that they instructed an alleged mistress of deputy opposition leader Kem Sokha to deny their affair.
Thirty-four people gathered in front of the Kampong Chhnang provincial hall yesterday morning to submit a petition demanding a solution to their decade-long dispute with the politically-connected KDC International company.
The company is owned by the wife of Mines Minister Suy Sem, Chea Kheng.
Filmmaker Sok Visal's new feature flips the script on traditional portrayals of LGBT characters in Cambodian cinema. Not because of some rights agenda, he says, but just to tell a human – and entertaining – story.
When actress and entertainer Poppy – born Leang Sothea – found herself in rural Kampong Chhnang last October on the set of her latest film, Poppy Goes to Hollywood, the villagers already knew her as "Miss Poppy".
Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) officials and anti-terrorism police continued to grill rights workers for a second day yesterday, following a marathon session on Wednesday that lasted until 11 pm over allegations they told the alleged mistress of opposition leader Kem Sokha, Khom Chandaraty (also known as Srey Mom), to lie about their relationship to police.
Three rights workers – Ny Sokha, Yi Soksan and Nai Vonda – were brought back to the ACU offices at 8 am yesterday for further questioning along with three new ones: Adhoc's Lim Mony, National Election Committee deputy secretary-general Ny Chakrya and Silaka director Thida Khus. The ACU tried to bring in UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights officer Sally Soen, but Mr. Soen has immunity as a UN employee. Ms. Khus said she spent three hours at the ACU, 40 minutes of which were spent in the interrogation room, before being allowed to leave. The other five were still at the ACU late last night and according to sources who spoke on condition of anonymity, they were to be detained overnight.

Comments about Learning Resources Take 10! Color Bug Catchers:
he game is very easy to play and great for boys who love bugs. Recommended for ages 3+, it's a good little game for children with shorter attention spans because the games never last longer than ten minutes. The game can be played in a number of ways.. use your gator grabbers to nab up the bugs. You can either roll the number cube or the color cube to decide which color and the amount of bugs you'd like to collection.. you're kind of on a bug hunt in a sense. We've tried all the games and my son enjoyed it and it does help with counting, sorting colors and perfect for fine-motor skills because you have to use the gator grabbers. Added bonus is that these bugs are colorful and not flimsy so we've had more fun creating memories by just playing with them for playtime.

The Big Ten office has made its selections, and they are ...
OFFENSE: Illinois RB Mikel Leshoure
Leshoure set a school record with a career-best 330 rushing yards on 33 carries with a pair of touchdowns against Northwestern. The junior running back averaged 10 yards per carry, including a 70-yard sprint in the first quarter and a 62-yard run in the fourth quarter. His 330-yard effort broke the program record of 315 yards set by Robert Holcombe at Minnesota on Nov. 16, 1996. Leshoure's day ranks fifth in Big Ten history and marks the conference's first game of 330 or more yards since Wisconsin's Ron Dayne compiled 339 yards at Hawaii on Nov. 30, 1996. The 330-yard game is also the highest total by any Football Bowl Subdivision player in more than two seasons.
DEFENSE: Ohio State LB Brian Rolle
Rolle tallied a team-high 10 tackles, including a career-high three tackles for loss, to hold nationally ranked Iowa to 17 points in a 20-17 road victory. The senior linebacker pushed the Hawkeye offense back 12 yards on his three tackles for loss, and four of his 10 tackles were solo stops. Iowa entered the game averaging 30.8 points, 405.9 yards of total offense and 153.2 rushing yards per game. Rolle was part of a defensive effort that limited the Hawkeyes to only 17 points, 276 yards of total offense and 81 yards on the ground.
CO-SPECIAL TEAMS: Michigan State LB Denicos Allen and Penn State S Andrew Dailey
Allen blocked a punt to help Michigan State rally from a 15-point fourth-quarter deficit for a victory against Purdue. Trailing 28-13 entering the final stanza, the Spartans scored a pair of touchdowns to pull within 31-28. With just about five minutes left in the game, the freshman linebacker blocked a Boilermaker punt which was recovered by teammate Johnny Adams at the Purdue 3-yard line. Two plays later, MSU quarterback Kirk Cousins scrambled 3 yards for the game-winning touchdown.
With the score tied in the third quarter, Dailey blocked an Indiana punt which was scooped up by teammate James Van Fleet and returned 21 yards for a touchdown to give Penn State a 31-24 lead. The Nittany Lions would add another score to end the game with a 41-24 victory. The junior safety has now blocked two punts in his career, including Penn State's most recent block against Eastern Illinois in 2009. Dailey's block was the first returned for a touchdown by the Nittany Lions since the 2005 season.
FRESHMAN: Wisconsin RB James White
White set a career high with 181 rushing yards on 23 carries and scored a pair of touchdowns in a victory at Michigan. The freshman running back averaged 7.9 yards per carry and added two receptions for 19 yards. He combined with teammate Montee Ball, who rushed for 173 yards, to become just the second tandem in school history to each rush for more than 150 yards in the same game. White scored his first touchdown on the day with a 61-yard sprint late in the first half before adding a 23-yard score in the third quarter.

Share your food, nutrition and diet tips here!
Instead of salad dressing, try pouring a little plain Balsamic Vinegar on your salad. It's only about 5 calories per Tbsp & No Fat! And it's very tasty. :-)
(It's also good poured over sliced strawberries & grilled veggies)
Added bonus...vinegar can help reduce cholesterol
When I feel hungry, sometimes it has to be something hot, so I boil water and add a portion controlled miso soup and add some cooked ve and there I have it and craving is gone.
I find I can't eat a whole apple or orange at the same time so I buy the ones already cut an bagged, then i grab a few bags throughout the day
Drink one cup of water before a meal, and one cup of water after the same meal. It adds up to 2 cups with breakfast, 2 with lunch, 2 with a snack, and 2 with dinner, all added up to 8 glasses a day! You'll meet the goal no problem! ^_^
I used to never eat breakfast, partly because I couldn't be bothered thinking about what to eat. Now I make the same thing every day - oatmeal. It's a bit boring, but I dress it up with cinammon/vanilla/nutmeg/raisins, and I don't miss breakfast and sabotage my efforts.
Sushi is a great, healthy meal!
Sushi is a great alternative to fatty, high calorie meals. Believe it or not, it isn't that hard to make. Try making Cones or sashimi if rolls intimidate you. Temaki is the cone and is more commonly eaten in Japan.
I keep a box of prewashed baby spinach in the fridge. If I'm having a can of soup, I throw in a couple fistfuls. Same thing with pasta sauce, scrambled eggs, and I also use it for sandwiches instead of lettuce. Great way to get iron and a serving of veggies!
Healthy eating is Very important to weight loss. This including not only eating fruits and vegetable but also taking care to consume an appropriate amount of fats and benificail Fatty acids. Even saturated fats are important to your over all health.
Making food taste good and healthy
Your food can taste delicious and still continue to be healthy by using Mrs. Dash seasoning, and herbs like onion powder and garlic powder. I love the table blend to put on my chicken.
Adding capers to whole wheat pasta and marinara makes the meal AMAZING! Also, adding goat cheese to the sauce..gives it a rich creamy taste with a small amount of calories added. Mimics pasta alle vodka but low cal!

|ESPN.com: NFC East

Look for some new additions at both wide receiver and tight end. It's a loaded free agent class, but the Eagles would need to pay big money to land Dwayne Bowe, Mike Wallace or Wes Welker. Victor Cruz is a restricted free agent who would cost the Eagles a pick based on his tender. Danario Alexander would be an intriguing option because of his size if he does not garner a high tender.
A big-bodied wide receiver would give the Eagles something they're missing. Don't expect the Eagles to spend a first-round pick on a receiver. Virginia Tech's Marcus Davis is a big receiver who could be taken in a middle round. If the Eagles are looking for the versatile receiver to be used in different roles, few are better in the NFL than West Virginia's Tavon Austin. Of course, he would require a pick late in the first round or early in the second round.

Turbo Golf

If you're doing bad on a particular hole, you can quit via the bottom left button and then re-enter the game by continuing your current round. This will let you start the hole again without penalties. Also, the wind conditions change each time you do this, so you can keep 'refreshing' until you achieve favourable conditions. All this effectively makes it a 'hole-by-hole' basis for the hard badge (although you still have to play them in order).

Here's a tip to make the items you're supposed to collect move on their own, something which has helped me numerous times: Place a rectangle of walk planks around the item (let's say it's a crate), so that the crate is in the centre. Have it so the crate will sit on top of the bottom walk plank when you test it. Then get another walk plank and connect it from the bottom left corner of the rectangle to the top right so that the plank runs through the crate. When you play, the crate should now move leftward on its own within the walk planks. To get it to move right, connect the diagonal from bottom right of rectangle to top left. Hope this helps! It has got me many KISS awards!

They Took Our Candy

32,006 points using the 3 ninjas and a cat strategy. The cat's special effect (rapid increase in your team's fire rate) wears off only seconds before your fully upgraded special bar fails, so you can use it very frequently. Try to max out your candy ASAP and kill EVERY enemy (I only let about 7 in total escape) and collect all dropped candy. You don't need to fret about upgrading attack or speed in the early waves as they are manageable with your base stats (my base stats were +75 with the General rank for anyone wondering).
Oct. 23, 2012
1 cat and 3 ninjas was working very well for me when fully upgraded. Could use the cat's ability again seconds after its effects wore off. And then wave 18 happened. Is the idea to gather the 30k points before wave 18 (I was pretty close when I died)? Or if anyone can post how I'm supposed to deal with said wave, that would be appreciated, since I understand it must be feasible if there are 50 waves.
The first several waves feel sooooo slow, when you've just been killed in a much higher survival wave.

Ultimate Assassin 3
Rating: 7
Finally got the impossible badge. Frustrating having to wait for all luck-based factors to come together for it; If I wanted a guard to turn left, he'd turn right; if I wanted him to move somewhere, he'd either not move, or walk into me whilst I'm invisible. On some of the later levels in particular, you'd have to wait 20 secs before you could even move and tell whether the mission was feasible. All of these things wouldn't be be a problem if there was no time limit. I actually think an assassin would be closer to 'ultimate' if he had to bide his time and wait for the perfect moment rather than rushing against the clock. And one other thing, if there's going to be a 4th: when one guard sees you and the alarm is sounded, there should be a delay, however slight, for the other guards' responding and firing. Thanks for the game!

Besides trust me if it was a female one perverts would of went to this pic and typed in some really sexual comments. So yeah good drawing man

Sometimes investing is just a matter of common sense, which some days seems rare. A CS guru on CNBC talking about hedge funds up 3.5% this year and you're paying 2% and 20% for that, some take 50%. But most of these deals are with institutions, people investing other people's money in pension, endowments... No wonder apartments for selling for a $100 million in NYC, it's not the pensioners that are buying them. And the CFO of United/Continental boasting that the airlines are now earning their cost of capital, can't wait to invest there. What did Buffet say, the easiest way to end up with a million dollars investing, start with a $10 million investment in airlines. And the global investing pitch is not such a great one right now, the rest of the world has done worse, and it's much more corrupt than the US. As for Obama's budget, who cares. He says it's non negotiable, that makes that call easy. Still feels we go higher until we correct and then higher, still feels the US market is undervalued relative to alternatives and the rest of the globe. And we have another collapse in a few years.
Noticed that Mozambique is now passing energy legislation after the big gas discoveries there, calls for sharing of revenue, there is a bunch of oil, gas around the world, but the risks are greater, the return expectations should reflect that risk. I would rather own gas in Western Colorado than gas off the coast of Africa or Israel. Contrary to what we have heard from pols, this country is still the best and should remain so for a long time. The experts are putting every word from the Fed under the microscope, lots of wasted energy, imo. Wonder if this quarter's earnings dampen enthusiasm, I'm guessing they don't. Stocks at a 7% earnings yield and the 10 yr T note at a 1.8% yield, that's still an easy choice.

Excellent cake, Irmgard. The family enjoyed it more than the traditional cinnamon type coffee cake. I will be making this often. Thanks for sharing this recipe Irmgard.
This is an amazing coffeecake~ My husband and children thought it was one of the best. I onlt had a sliver (diet) but it was phenom! It was incredibly moist, and the skor bits made it so tasty!! One thing I changed~ I added a whole cup of chopped pecans and I did use salted butter, just reduced the salt requirement.

I got it from this comment:
We'll look into that with the weapons overhaul :)
I think the driver fix is for ATI cards, I am not aware of any Nvidia cards affected
There's nothing wrong with Windows 8.1, it's likely a video card issue. You can find some helpful tips here:
Thank you! Hope you enjoy the mod on HW2C while we work on the HW2R version!
That would be cool, but it would need to wait for our first HWR release to be already out :P
This is on Steam for HW2C already, this page is for the next version on HWR
They only repair at the moment, there was a construction script in the works but that has been on hold for ages, not sure if it'll be completed
How do you know it will be Thursday? Star Trek: Continuum has been waiting on Steam to do something since Friday afternoon :/
I uploaded it on Friday night AEST, so it may be another couple of days... no idea how slow the guys at Steam are :/
Rest assured I'm not being idle, soon is not soon (tm) ;)
Shortly means when I've finished adding in the fixes for things people have noticed since release, also possibly one other thing which I didn't have time for. I am not waiting for the Gearbox Tools though, don't need them to release on HW2C
We will be putting it up shortly, just fixing the things which have been commented upon since the Release Gamma was put out :)
This is caused by the logo, the new HW2 is essentially not compatible. You'll have to wait for our release on Steam
You'll see STC on there soon! The current installer's files wont work with the new game so we'll be releasing it there shortly :)
I've had this with other mods, maybe it's just hardware related?
"Save humanity"? :/
Hi there! We've not got the mod on Steam, Gearbox hasn't even done their new release of the remastered Homeworld yet, but when we know what's going on we're sure to let you guys know (other mods will too)
You'll still be able to do it the hard way, creating your own shortcut :)
The inverted badges are a nice touch :P
We don't know yet :)
Can you try creating a shortcut manually? The arguments you'll need in the shortcut are displayed in the launcher
As it said in the article:
"We choose to explain the T'Varo's presence in Enterprise as due to the temporal cold war, but as that was stopped the movement of knowledge and technology (and ships!) across eras was made as if it never was, the Romulans never got their post-modern birds of prey and this really cool design still gets to go in the mod!"
This is an issue with WinXP apparently, we have a launcher which (with .Net 4) can run on XP. This will be released shortly.
Alternatively you really should upgrade, XP has not been supported for almost a year and is a huge security risk for you
Run as administrator ;)
Thank you very much! :D
Thank you everyone! We've been jealous of all the wonderful pictures you all put up with the SINS engine, it's thrilling to hear that the appreciation is mutual :D
Oh myyy...

Emerson is a beautiful name for a girl. It means Brave & Powerful. What mother doesn't want their daughters be be just that!
beatyanna says
Emerson can be a woman's name or a man's name it's 2015. What about Taylor or Addison? Same rule applies. According to the research I found Emerson, the American version, means brave and powerful. Why can't a woman be brave and powerful? To add in a creative spelling like Emersyn is silly. Don't be trendy and misspell a name just to fit in with perceived gender norms. Your poor girl will have to spell her name out for the rest of her life. I think Emerson as a girl's name is original and carries with it a sense of empowerment.
