In working with a chemical system it is highly desirable to be able to obtain a rapid determination of the concentration of a desired component of the system. This is not always easily done by direct analysis of the component itself.
I have now discovered a method of determining the concentration of a desired component in a system which comprises adding a predetermined amount of an easily analyzable auxiliary chemical to the system which when subjected to analysis gives a quantitative determination of its concentration in the system; and then determining the concentration of the desired component by correlating the ratio of the auxiliary chemical to the desired component.
In one embodiment, a salt, such as an alkali metal salt, for example LiCl, is added in predetermined amounts to a composition employed in treating a system, such as adding a predetermined amount of alkali metal salt such a LiCl to a corrosion inhibitor. When the LiCl-containing corrosion inhibitor is added to a corrosive system, an aliquot sample of the system is removed and its lithium concentration determined and correlated to the concentration of corrosion inhibitor.
Any suitable and convenient method may be employed. One convenient method is spectroscopic analysis such as exemplified by atomic absorption or emission spectroscopy. The preferred method of analysis is atomic absorption spectroscopy. A good discussion of this procedure can be found in "Atomic-Absorption Spectroscopy," by Ramirez-Munoz published by Elsevier Publishing Company, 1968.
The easily analyzable auxiliary chemicals of this invention can be employed with a wide variety of chemical treating agents including corrosion inhibitors, o/w and w/o demulsifiers, scale preventive, biocides such as bactericides, algicides, etc., water treating agents, agents employed in enhancing primary and secondary recovery, paraffin removers, etc.
Although a wide variety of chemical agents and systems can be employed, the invention will be illustrated with corrosion inhibitors. These are further illustrated by the preferred embodiment -- corrosion inhibitors of the film-forming type.
In general, the film-forming organic corrosion inhibitors which are employed are generally heteropolar, for example, cationic or anionic in nature. The most widely used type of filmforming corrosion inhibitor is the cationic type, which is generally a comparatively high molecular weight organic compound containing one or more basic nitrogen atoms.
Anionic film-forming inhibitors contain hydrophobic groups, which have generally large hydrocarbon radicals, and acid groups.
In general, assuming a monomolecular layer, the more effective film-forming corrosion inhibitors are those which cover the largest area per molecule and form the most coherent and oriented film.
Typical but non-limiting examples, of film-forming corrosion inhibitors are presented below.
A wide variety of these compounds are known to be filmforming corrosion inhibitors. The following are a few nonlimiting examples:
1. Oxazolines (U.S. Pat. No. 2,587,955)
2. Tetrahydropyrimides (U.S. Pat. No. 2,640,029)
3. Imidazolines (U.S. Pat. No. Re. 23,227)
4. Pyrrolinedione (U.S. Pat. No. 2,466,530)
5. Amino amides (U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,550,682 and 2,598,213)
6. Quaternary amines (U.S. Pat. No. 2,659,693)
7. Monoamines, such as Rosin Amine (OIL GAS JOURNAL 46, No. 31, 91-6 (1956) ) Osyalkylated Rosin Amine (U.S. Pat. No. 2,564,749) Rosin Amine + solubilizing agent (U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,564,757 and 2,564,753)
A wide variety of these compounds are known to be film-forming corrosion inhibitors. The following are non-limiting examples:
1. Naphthenic acids (U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,430,951 and 2,434,978)
2. Dimerized unsaturated fatty acids (U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,632,695)
3. Fatty acids, such as ricinoleic acid (U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,481,372 and 2,508,401)
4. Alkenyl succinic acids (British Pat. No. 567,089)
Acetylenic compounds such as propargyl alcohol and related compositions can also be employed alone or in conjunction with other corrosion inhibitors, as well as other compositions such as hexamethylene tetramine, etc.
The analyzable metal-containing compounds of this invention can be employed as corrosion inhibitors for acid systems, for example as illustrated by the following systems:
1. In the pickling of ferrous metals.
2. In the treatment of calcareous earth formations with acids such as HCl mixtures of HCl-HF, etc.
3. In spent sulfuric alkylation acid.
4. In byproduct HCl from the chlorination of organic compounds in the detergent, solvent, rubber, etc., industries.
5. In phosphoric and sulfuric acid systems employed in processing phosphate fertilizer.
6. In spent sulfuric acid from the process of reacting alkenes with alcohols, etc.
The above processes are illustrative. The corrosion inhibitors of this invention can be employed in any strong acid systems such as where H2 SO4, HCl, H3 PO4, HF, etc., are present.
This phase of the invention relates to the use of an easily analyzable inhibitor in pickling. More particularly, the invention is directed to an easily analyzable pickling composition and to a method of pickling ferrous metal. The term "ferrous metal" as used herein refers to iron, iron alloys and steel.
To prepare ferrous metal sheet, strip, etc., for subsequent processing, it is frequently desirable to remove oxide coating, formed during manufacturing, from the surface. The presence of oxide coating, referred to as "scale" is objectionable when the material is to undergo subsequent processing. Thus, for example, oxide scale must be removed and a clean surface provided if satisfactory results are to be obtained from hot rolled sheet and strip in any operation involving deformation of the product. Similarly, steel prepared for drawing must possess a clean surface and removal of the oxide scale therefrom is essential since the scale tends to shorten drawing-die life as well as destroy the surface smoothness of the finished product. Oxide removal from sheet or strip is also necessary prior to coating operations to permit proper alloying or adherence of the coating to the ferrous metal strip of sheet. Prior to cold reduction, it is necessary that the oxide formed during hot rolling be completely removed to preclude surface irregularities and enable uniform reduction of the work.
The chemical process used to remove oxide from metal surfaces is referred to as "pickling." Typical pickling processes involve the use of aqueous acid solutions, usually inorganic acids, into which the metal article is immersed. The acid solution reacts with the oxides to form water and a salt of the acid. A common problem in this process is "overpickling" which is a condition resulting when the ferrous metal remains in the pickling solution after the oxide scale is removed from the surface and the pickling solution reacts with the ferrous base metal. An additional difficulty in pickling results from the liberated hydrogen being absorbed by the base metal and causing hydrogen embrittlement. To overcome the aforementioned problems in pickling, it has been customary to add corrosion inhibitors to the pickling solution.
The use of pickling inhibitors avoids or minimizes the abovedescribed problems in pickling ferrous metal articles and provides a pickling composition which minimizes corrosion, overpickling and hydrogen embrittlement. The pickling inhibitors not only prevent excessive dissolution of the ferrous base metal but effectively limit the amount of hydrogen absorption thereby during pickling.
When the easily analyzable compositions of this invention are employed in conjunction with pickling inhibitor they facilitate control and therefore the effectiveness of the inhibitor in the system.
Any metal capable of analysis by atomic absorption spectroscopy can be employed. The metals and salts thereof which are legion are described for example in above reference on "AtomicAbsorption Spectroscopy," by Ramirez-Munoz.
As a matter of practice, it is desirable to add a metal to the system in salt form which is not normally found in said system. Otherwise, unless correction is made to compensate for such presence of metals in the system, accurate results will not be obtained.
Therefore, any metal of the periodic system can be employed such as alkali metals, alkali earths, coinage metals, transition metals, zinc subgroup metals, etc. Since it is desirable to employ those metals not usually found in the system, the more exotic metals are generally employed such as lithium, rubidium, selenium, vanadium, cadmium, beryllium, cesium, nickel, cobalt, etc., in salt form such as in the form of halides, sulfates, acetates, carbonates, nitrates, phosphates, silicates, etc.
The following polyquaternaries are examples of inhibitors employed in acid systems which are useful in preparing the easily analyzable composition of this invention. These are described in Ser. No. 211,049, filed Dec. 22, 1971.
The reaction product of Still-bottom polyethylene polyamines (which contain primary, secondary and tertiary amino groups as well as heterocyclic amines) with ethylene dichloride having the general formula ##EQU1## where N represents the polyamine.
The reaction product of Still-bottom polyethylene polyamines (which contain primary, secondary and tertiary amino groups as well as heterocyclic amines) with epichlorohydrin ##EQU2## where N represents the polyamine.
The reaction product of diethylamine and 1,4-dichlorobutene ##EQU3##
The reaction product of diethylamine and epichlorohydrin ##EQU5## All of the above formulae are idealized formulae.
The above corrosion inhibitors are prepared in the following formulation:Corrosion inhibitor 40% (by weight)Propargyl alcohol 5Methanol 10Water 45
The following example is presented for purposes of illustration and not of limitation, employing a HCl pickling corrosion inhibitor and LiCl as the easily analyzable composition. Although the invention is illustrated with a lithium salt, other salts of lithium or other metal salts can be employed. Graphs are employed to illustrate the invention.
FIG. 1 is a graph of absorbance plotted as a function of mg of lithium (calculated as Li) per liter of pickling acid.
FIG. 2 is a graph of volume percent of corrosion inhibitor in the pickling acid plotted as a function of lithium concentration (calculated as Li).
An analyzable form of a corrosion inhibitor (Example 2) was prepared by adding sufficient LiCl so that it contained 2200 mg/liter of lithium, calculated as the element. A straight line relationship exists between lithium content and corrosion inhibitor concentration in fresh hydrochloric acid. The atomic absorption test procedure is designed to be run on fresh inhibited acid prior to pickling use to assure presence of the inhibitor in proper quantities.
A very accurate test method, utilizing the standard addition method of atomic absorption is used to determine the concentration of corrosion inhibitor in hydrochloric acid solutions. This test procedure should have an accuracy of well within + 5%, however, problems can be encountered if there is a great temperature difference between the inhibitor and the hydrochloric acid. If these conditions exist, what may actually be 0.25% by volume of inhibitor in acid at the time of addition may result in a different volume percent when the temperatures equilibrate. Since the inhibitor is added to the acid on a volume basis, this temperature effect will be present in any analytical procedure.
In the method of standard addition, net absorption readings are obtained on two types of solutions: "solution A", containing an aliquot of the unknown solution and "solution Sn ", containing the same quantity of unknown solution plus measured amounts of a standard solution of the element. The measured absorption of all the samples is then plotted versus the concentrations of the element. The unknown concentration is usually plotted at zero while the samples containing the unknown plus the measured amounts of the element are plotted at the amount, in mg/liter, of element added to the unknown. The best straight line is then drawn for the data points and is extrapolated through the base line. The intercept of this curve at the base line is the amount of the element found in the unknown. Since a plot of absorbance versus concentration for lithium is linear over a small range, interference should be detectable by the following relationships.
K = (Ll - H)A /X (Formula 1)
Sf - (Ln - Ll)/k (formula 2)
L1 = absorption reading of the unknown.
Ln = absorption reading after addition of measured amount of element.
H = base line or background reading.
k = factor relating absorbance to concentration.
Xf = concentration of unknown found from figure.
Sn = amount of standard added.
Sf = amount of addition standard found.
If Sn does not equal Sf then some sort of interference is present.
This interference can usually be corrected by the following formula: ##EQU6## A sample of 20� Be. HCL containing 0.225% by volume of inhibitor was analyzed for lithium by the described method of standard additions. Sample 1 was the unknown and samples 2, 3 and 4 contained the unknown and an additional 1, 2 and 3 mg/l of lithium respectively. The base line was set at an absorbance reading of 8.0 and the four samples were run with the following results:
Sample Absorbance mg/l Li added______________________________________1 16.5 02 18.0 13 20.0 24 21.7 3______________________________________
These results are plotted in FIG. 1. The intercept of the base line is at 4.8 mg/l. Using formulas (1) and (2) to check the consistency of the results, it is seen that the difference is slight.
K = (L1 - H)A /Xf = (16.5 - 8.0)/4.8 = 1.77
Sf = (L4 - L1)/k = (21.7 - 16.5)/1.77 = 2.94
Since Sf does not equal S, which is 3, formula (3) is needed to correct Xf. ##EQU7## Since the inhibitor contains 2200 mg/1 lithium, the theoretical amount of lithium in a 0.225% solution of inhibitor in HCL should be 4.95 mg/1. The 4.9 mg/1 of lithium would represent 0.223% by volume inhibitor in the HCL solution, according to FIG. 2.
The results of this example were obtained on a Perkin Elmer Model 303 Atomic Absorption Unit using air-acetylene fuel and a Perkin Elmer hollow cathode lithium lamp at a 1 mm slit and in the visible spectrum at a wavelength of 335 M.
As is quite evident, the easily analyzable auxiliary chemicals can be employed with other chemical treating agents and systems. It is, therefore, not only impossible to attempt a comprehensive catalogue of such agents and systems, but to attempt to describe the invention in its broader aspects in terms of specific chemical names of agents and systems used would be too voluminous and unnecessary since one skilled in the art could by following the disclosure select the proper agent. This invention lies in the use of easily analyzable auxiliary chemicals in chemical treating agents and systems and their individual composition is important only in the sense that their properties can effect this analyzable function.
To precisely define each chemical agent and system useful in this invention in light of the present disclosure would merely call for knowledge within the skill of the art in a manner analogous to a mechanical engineer who prescribes in the construction of a machine the proper materials and the proper dimensions thereof. From the description in this specification and with the knowledge of a chemist, one will know or deduce with confidence the chemical agents and systems suitable for this invention. In analogy to the case of a machine wherein the use of certain materials of construction or dimensions of parts would lead to no practical useful result, various materials will be rejected as inapplicable where others would be operative. One can obviously assume that no one will wish to make a useless composition or will be misled because it is possible to misapply the teachings of the present disclosure in order to do so.
Thus, any chemical agent or system where the easily analyzable auxiliary chemical can perform the intended function stated herein can be employed.

Used at a high school celebration and it generally held up well- it tore slightly at the top when hanging- not reinforced that well at top.

The Quay Brothers and Director of Film/Video David Filipi onstage at the world premiere of Unmistaken Hands: Ex Voto F.H.
Wex film fans no doubt remember the last time the Quay Brothers paid us a visit—they were here in 2013 for the world premiere of their short film Unmistaken Hands: Ex Voto F.H., which was completed in our Film/Video Studio as part of their Wexner Center Artist Residency Award. The film focused on the work and life of writer Felisberto Hernández, often called "the father of magic realism," and was a haunting and gorgeous work, in line with the best films the Quays have produced. So it's exciting to say that it's now available in a beautiful new Blu-ray set from the good folks at Zeitgeist Films. The comprehensive collection features 15 of their astonishingly detailed and composed films (including their classic Street of Crocodiles and an acclaimed new documentary about the brothers by Christopher Nolan), new essays about their long and influential career, and the no doubt fascinating (and comprehensive) Quay Brothers Dictionary. We're honored to have had the Quay Brothers as residency artists and to support their inimitable work, and it's a joy to share the news that you can now add the film to your collection.

Hyun Gyu Kim, Pramod H. Borse, Jum Suk Jang, Chang Won Ahn, Euh Duck Jeong and Jae Sung Lee Engineered Nanorod Perovskite Film Photocatalysts to Harvest Visible Light Advanced Materials 23
Article first published online: 23 MAR 2011 | DOI: 10.1002/adma.201004171
A uniform array of Aurivillius phase perovskite PbBi2Nb2O9 photocatalyst in a nanorod configuration is fabricated on a conducting glass as a photoelectrode for a photo-electrochemical water oxidation. Dramatically improved photoactivity is demonstrated for the nanorod electrode compared to a PbBi2Nb2O9 particulate electrode. Directional electron transport in crystalline nanorods is faster than percolation through a random polycrystalline particle network.

Kuncup Mekar Group
However, there is a change of group members. There were ten members in cycle one. For the second cycle, it was changed to eight members, and one member is a new entry. Kuncup Mekar, this group, still has a wide variety of business efforts, such as catering for offices, grocery shop, clothes and bed linens, credit, household appliances, and selling small meals or snacks. Their fellow members cooperate with each other and remind each other and support each other, so it has lasted for eight years. With this loan from Kiva, they are eager to expand their businesses, increase the types of foods, and add more equipment adequately.
The group is led by a woman named Lulu. She is married and has three children, two of whom are in school. Her husband works as a driver on a passenger boat. Lulu opened a catering services business in her home, and has to do all herself because she has not been able to pay auxiliary help power.
Together with her husband, Lulu is trying to fill food orders for the offices she serves. She hopes with this loan, she can add equipment and a place to cook more rice boxes.
They are very grateful to Kiva and have completed one cycle smoothly.
Additional Information
About Yayasan Sosial Bina Sejahtera (YSBS)Yayasan Sosial Bina Sejahtera (YSBS) is a non-governmental organization that has worked on poverty reduction, food security, gender issues, education, public health, and climate change in Central Java, Indonesia for over 40 years. Kiva lenders can fund tuition loans for students attending YSBS' maritime academy and senior vocational high school to help them launch their careers, or enterprise loans for rural groups of women participating in the organization's microfinance program.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The LaSalle County Historical Society's museum lies on the north side of the historic Illinois and Michigan Canal, itself a historical landmark.

The two-story building has walls of sandstone blocks between 18 and 32 inches thick, quarried in Utica, and secured with hydraulic cement of the same kind used in the construction of the I&M Canal. James Clark, the man who commissioned the building, came to Utica in 1833, where he became a land squatter. In 1842 he became a contractor on the I&M Canal and in 1845 he bought the local cement mill. He made it a huge commercial success by selling the cement to the canal contractors and the general public. The cement was used in many parts of the canal.

Read in September, 2011
I've loved some of Linda Howard's backlist, which is probably why I'm still reading her recent releases. But this was just boring. I'm normally a fan of survival/wilderness stories, but I skimmed a lot in this one - neither the plot nor the characters captured my attention. And when we got the POV of the bear... oh dear.

The POV of the bear?! I used to love her books, but had to stop reading her -- and this just sounds ludicrous.

Yes, the bear! For a moment, I was wondering if I had stumbled into a shape-shifter story, but no...

This is xposted from the August DDC, but everything gets buried there...
So I went in yesterday for my 39 week checkup and the nurse takes my BP and then is like, you have an internal exam today, so strip before the midwife comes in. And I'm like, "Why?" And she's like, "Because you're 39 weeks." So I strip.
Then my midwife comes in and we chat, do the fundal measurement and heartbeat (all normal), and she says it's time for the internal exam.
And I say, "Does it really tell you anything to know how dilated and effaced I am right now?" And she says, "No, it doesn't. You could be closed and still go into labor tonight, or you could be dilated 3 cm and walk around for two more weeks."
So I say, "Then why are we doing this?" And she says, "If you don't want an exam we won't do one. That's totally okay!"
So no cervical check. No discomfort, cramping, bleeding, hands in my vagina, false hopes/disappointment, etc.
So mamas, if everything is normal, and you aren't even at your due date yet, you don't need a cervical check! All you have to do is ask!!!

Nearly 14,000 deer harvested in Vermont in 2012The Associated Press | January 17,2013MONTPELIER - The state Fish and Wildlife Department says Vermont deer hunters successfully harvested nearly 14,000 deer in 2012, a 14 percent increase over the previous year.
The totals reflect archery, youth, rifle and muzzleloader harvests.
Officials say last winter's relatively mild weather and shallow snow depths likely contributed to this fall's elevated deer harvest.
The low availability of traditional food sources such as apple orchards and beech and oak stands this past summer and fall also resulted in deer changing their movement patterns.
The department says one of the biggest increases was in archery, which rose 25 percent, to 3,384 deer.MORE IN This Just InLike the rest of you, Ive spent the past week immersed in the local conversation about welcoming...

Poetic ArtistryPosted Saturday, June 18, 2011, at 12:54 PM
Some things just need to be together, Lightening and Thunder, Day and Night, Seeing and Hearing, Jesus an Mankind...The Storm is coming, Soon.
By Arley Steinhour 061811
Like a vase painted on canvas face
Word painting scripted, Poets do
Descriptive words must fill the space
To paint a shine upon a shoe.
The scenery is scripture bound
Alphabetic tried and true
Not a brush-stroke can be found
A picture written word paints for you.
I was looking at some artistry
Painted by brush and stroke
Viewing bits of History
Without a Poetic pencil stroke.
Too bad, I thought, Poets weren't there
With so little uttered by the crowd
Ear left out from beauty there to share
Something missing, like sky without a cloud.
Consider, 'Beauty of the painted flower
Shining bright with morning dew
Warming the heart hour by hour
To see what God means to you.'
Or, 'Soft clean skin of babe new born
Held close to parent's breast
Love flowing as from Cornucopic horn
Showing life is at it's best.'
Perhaps a river softly flowing
Dark blue with touch of brown
Or rapids white and angry frothing
Warning dangerous rock abound.
The seeing and the hearing
Together sings well to heart
Enchants life with the pairing
Never more to be apart.
Just like man and Jesus
Being One, once together locked
A One of many pieces
Eternal One, with Satan blocked.

While I take great interest in our political system, I have to admit, nasty politics has me frustrated and weary.
Why can't we just stick to issue-based campaigns? Why is it necessary to try and destroy our opponent personally?
A reader forwarded me a parody of the popular comic strip "Wizard of Id." This long running newspaper strip, which has also been published in book form for fans of the series, is set in the days of castles, kings and peasants.
In the parody strip, one of the king's loyal servants is engaged in a pre-speech conversation with the king. In this parody, a cartoon Obama has replaced the king.
Here is the exchange:
Advisor: What are you offering the peasants in your election speech today?
Obama: Nothing they can afford to refuse.
Obama now goes out and delivers the speech.
Obama from his royal balcony: Elect me, and I promise you free health care!
Crowd: Yippee, yahoo, yip yip.
Obama: Free housing! Free clothing! Food Stamps!
Crowd: Yeah! Yippee.
Obama: And jobs for everybody.
Crowd: Yea!
Obama: Any questions? Yes?
Crowd person: What do we need jobs for?
Now that's not attacking Obama personally. It's not talking his wife, his daughters, his ears ... its talking administrative policy under the cover of editorial commentary. These types of political satire have been the center of political dialogue in newspapers, shows like "Saturday Night Live" and Comedy Central for years. It's fair, it's policy focused and it has been fired at both sides of the aisle.
Through the course of the Republican primary, we've watched candidates shred each other on stage. Sometimes on philosophical differences regarding the nation's most pressing issues. That's completely understood and acceptable.
When the attacks become personal, however, and teams are sent digging up the personal skeletons in their opponents closet, well I'm somewhat bothered by that.
I'm on board with the conventional wisdom that character matters. It does and it should. But can we make it relevant.
If we're talking about a 45- or 50-year-old candidate, do we really want to judge them now on the indiscretions of their teens or early 20s? I would sure hate for people to judge me now for some of the immature behaviors I exhibited as a high school and college age man.
Here's what I want to hear. I want to hear why I should vote for you. Tell me your plans once you're in office. Tell me your thoughts on current and future policy. Present me with facts that support you as the best candidate for office. That's what I want to hear.
Tell me why I should vote for you, not why I shouldn't vote for him. If you make the case for yourself well enough, there's really no reason to bring up any of the bad behavior from more than 30 years ago.
Let's have a clean presidential campaign and may the best man win.

Experimental demonstration of shrinkage of magnetic domains in a superconductor/ferromagnet bilayer
Abstract:The shrinkage of magnetic domains in a superconductor/ferromagnet bilayer is studied experimentally using Pb as a superconductor and a garnet film with maze domains as a ferromagnet. The effects of trapped flux in a superconductor and the pinning of magnetic domain boundaries are carefully minimized by using a high-quality Pb single crystal and an AC demagnetization technique. A temperature independent shrinkage of magnetic domains by a factor ~ 0.89 is obtained below the superconducting transition of Pb. The slightly suppressed shrinkage ratio as compared with the theoretical prediction can be explained by a finite gap between the Pb crystal and the garnet film.
