On September 24, 2011 Girl Scout troop 2458 from Rockfield School in Germantown toured the new and fantastic Scrumptious Delights bakery. Each girl had a chance to make a cake pop and come up with their own cupcake that would be featured in the bakery. Cake pops are a very modern tasty treat that is popping up all over. Cake pops are made with cake and it is put on a stick. It is both fun to make and tasty! Scrumptious Delights sells them at their bakery $1.50 for yellow or chocolate and $2.00 for the gourmet pops.
Earlier this year leader Carrie Andresek asked Kelly Wilson and Vicki Carl if her troop could tour the new bakery located at W156 N11074 Pilgrim Road in Germantown. Carl and Wilson happily agreed to the tour and their employee Cassidy Tyrpak joyfully joined in.
The owners decided it would be educational to ask each girl to create a cupcake. They asked the troop to include all the ingredients and illustrate it on paper. Then Carl and Wilson would judge the cupcake that fit into the bakery. Carl and Wilson were blown away by the amazing creations the girls came up with.
"It was honestly hard to decide on just one cupcake, everyone was a winner," remarked Carl and Wilson.
We had so many great ideas presented to us, cotton candy cupcake(Jasmine), lemon lime cupcake(Emily), kiwi strawberry cupcake with caramel (Megan), apple streusel cupcake (Libby), candy corn cupcake (Nina), a cupcake inspired for the fight against breast cancer made out of raspberry (Sara) and vanilla with red velvet (Kim).
The cupcake that Scrumptious Delights thought fit best with our current menu was the strawberry sundae cupcake. Right now the bakery has its famous hot fudge sundae cupcake but no one ever thought about a strawberry sundae. The Girl Scout that came up with this wonderful addition to our menu is Cassie Diaz from Rockfield School in Germantown.
We would like to thank Troop 2458 for visiting us at the bakery and inspiring new flavors.

Hello, My surgery included ultrasonic lipo and excision via the armpit. My main concerns are these: 1) The left nipple is darker than the right. Will this subside? If so, does that mean the nipple will become less contracted as well? 2) The left is entirely flat against my chest, almost indented, and its tip goes inward. The right nipple is puffy and protrudes as if there is still too much tissue left. Did my doctor take too much tissue out of the left and leave too much tissue in the right?

1 month post-surgery is too soon to see final results. Things will continue to change over time. It usually takes 8-12 months to see final results.
1 month after Male Breast Reduction Surgery
1 month after any surgery is too soon to make a final decision on your results. It takes about 3 full months to see final results. I would continue your follow up with your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns.

I see and understand your concerns. But way TOOO early to comment Allow more healing time. See your doc more often to keep your concerns in their view. Regards

Dear Sheen
At this stage you are only 1-month after your surgery, and from your photos, you appear to have a very good result. Of course, I have not seen your pre-operative photographs, but looking at your chest, it now seems normal with no evidence of breast tissue.
As you will know, there is no such thing as perfect symmetry in the body, and we are all asymmetric between our left and right halves. These asymmetries will apply to your chest, both pre-operatively and post-operatively, meaning that you will always notice some slight differences. However, looking at your photos, these differences do not appear to be significant. Furthermore, you need to wait a minimum of 6-months before you can start to judge the final outcome of your surgery, and up to a year in many cases.
I hope this reassures you, as I think your chest looks very good.

Social sectors in an economy are often characterized by market failures. To correct such failures, governments intervene through the public provision, financing, and regulation of services. There is recognition that corruption emerges as a by-product of government intervention (Acemoglu and Verdier 2000); what is not well understood, however, is that corruption can adversely affect the provision of publicly provided social services. The theoretical literature identifies three channels through which this can happen. First, corruption can drive up the price and lower the level of government output and services (Shleifer and Vishny 1993), including the provision and financing of health care and education services in many countries. 1 Second, corruption can reduce investment in human capital (Ehrlich and Lui 1999). Finally, corruption can reduce government revenue (Shleifer and Vishny 1993; Hindriks, Keen, and Muthoo 1999), which in turn can lower the quality of publicly provided services (Bearse, Glomm, and Janeba 2000). 2 The latter discourages some individuals from using these services and reduces their willingness to pay for them (through tax evasion), which shrinks the tax base and diminishes the government's ability to provide quality public services. 3 The lower quality also creates incentives for individuals to opt for privately provided services. However, in countries where private markets for health care and education services are limited, this can lead to congestion, increased delays in obtaining public services, rising opportunities for rentseeking, and frequent use of discretionary power by government officials. Even in cases where private markets are well developed and extensive, the poor may lack the ability to pay for private services and outputs.
These predictions are consistent with a growing empirical literature on the economic consequences of corruption as well as results from surveys of users of public services. The existing empirical evidence, for example, shows that corruption reduces spending on operations and maintenance, such as medicine and textbooks (Tanzi and Davoodi 1997). Higher corruption is associated with rising military spending (Gupta, de Mello, and Sharan

Using the crowd to design new products is not a new thing. Platforms have long existed to crowdsource things such as new logos or t-shirts. Industrial heavy-weights such as Lego and Ford are also utilising their customers in the design process.
How about using the crowd to design a tank?
That's the idea behind a new project launched by Derpa. They are releasing open source design software that will allow us to design the drive-train for a new tank, and test that tank in competitions against other designers. The winning designers will then be put forward to design other parts of the tank.
The project is all being run and contained within the VehicleForge.org site. With the winning designer netting a cool $1 million, this is a fascinating way for the military to get new talent working on their design problems.
You can find out more about the project at the video below. If you want to enter, it starts on Monday 14th January.

will.i.am may have asked Justin Bieber to appear on his #willpower track "#thatPOWER," but he got a little help from Bieber's hologram for the just-released spacey video.
The video doesn't have much of a story line but is all about setups that are meant to please the eye thanks to appearances from will, Bieber's hologram and a myriad of dancers. The fact that Bieber's cameo relies heavily on his hologram, and later on televised images of his face, makes sense given that he's currently on a world tour and probably couldn't make the multi-location shoot. While Bieber isn't the star of the show, Beliebers will be pleased that he pops up often enough to add one more player to will's futuristic team of performers.
When Bieber isn't there, will and his dancers are doing "synchronized movement" anywhere their hearts desire — in traffic, on Japanese city streets, in office buildings and even on overpasses.
The most visually stunning moment comes about midway, as will.i.am and his dancers get their groove on in a room with a mirrored floor as the lyrics of the song are projected on the walls in neon-colored lighting. will's fans may also appreciate a shot of the Black Eyed Peas frontman and his clones dancing on an escalator. The walls are mirrored, giving it all a kaleidoscope feel.
"#thatPOWER" is one of the many tracks fans have previewed ahead of #willpower's April 23 release date. He also dropped "Scream & Shout" featuring Britney Spears
and "Fall Down"
featuring Miley Cyrus .
Beliebers should also take note: This is the second music video in a week that Bieber has starred in. He dropped his "All Around the World" video last Friday. And while the clip for "#thatPOWER" is rather high-concept, "AATW" is more simplistic, featuring concert and behind-the-scenes footage of the 19-year-old as he travels, well, all around the world.

Sixteenth Virginia Film Festival Shows the Money, and the Movies
by Scott Mactavish
Autumn in Charlottesville, Va., is truly a site to behold and this year was no exception; the Blue Ridge Mountains painted a stunning backdrop for the 16th annual Virginia Film Festival and film lovers came out by the thousands to see good films. The University of Virginia, founded by Thomas Jefferson and located in the visually stunning and surprisingly cosmopolitan city of Charlottesville, was once again host to the fest from October 23-26. The festival extended from the busy downtown mall area to the UVA campus, with public transportation available and plenty of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment along the way.
This year's theme was "Money," with more than 70 films unspooling over the four-day non-competitive event, accompanied by panels, parties, exhibits and performances. Festival Director Richard Herskowitz designed this year's program "to explore the extremes of having too much and too little money." The first two days focused on poverty and low-budget filmmaking with the last two dedicated to bloated budgets and affluenza. Several notable classic films were screened, including John Ford's "The Grapes of Wrath," "How to Marry A Millionaire," and the world's first million-dollar movie, "Foolish Wives," by Eric Von Stroheim, which was accompanied by pianist Donald Sosin and singer Joanna Seaton. The heist film was well represented by entries such as "The Italian Job," "Three Kings," and "Reconstruction" and a handful of remarkable non-theme films screened, including the excellent documentary "This So Called Disaster," an intimate look at the inner-workings of a Sam Shepard play. Featuring Nick Nolte, Woody Harrelson, and Sean Penn, the digital feature -- produced by IFC -- drew compliments across the board. Several special premieres were well received, including Denys Arcand's "The Barbarian Invasions," an upcoming Miramax release, and "The Cooler," a Lions Gate release starring William H. Macy, Maria Bello, and Alec Baldwin.
Two dedicated and fiercely independent directors, Rob Nilsson and Charles Burnett, were honored for their commitment to and excellence in low-budget filmmaking. Nilsson presented three films from his improvised 9@NIGHT series, which he made with the Tenderloin yGroup, a drama workshop for homeless people in San Francisco. One of these, "Noise," premiered on the festival's closing night and was warmly received by an appreciative audience. Burnett, best known as the director of "To Sleep With Anger" presented his two latest films, "Warming by the Devil's Fire" from the PBS series "The Blues" and "Nat Turner: A Troublesome Property." which was particularly poignant, given the fact that Nat Turner lived and died in Virginia.
The 2003 Virginia Film Award went to legendary Hollywood hyphenate Frank Pierson, who won the Oscar for scripting "Cool Hand Luke," served as President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and most recently directed the Sundance sensation "Soldier's Girl," among other notable accomplishments. The opening night program kicked off with a screening of the Pierson-scripted "Dog Day Afternoon" and ended with a gala party at the impressive Virginia Art Museum on the UVA campus. Later in the weekend, Pierson offered a two-part shot-by-shot analysis of "Dog Day Afternoon", which sold out both days and was highly praised by those in attendance, including several seasoned Hollywood pros.
While much of the festival was dedicated to the art of film, there were a number of panels that delved into the business side. The "Meet the Producers" panel was comprised of several left coast players, including UVA alumni Marc Abraham ("Air Force One," "The Commitments"), Greg Williamson ("Forces of Nature") and Julie Lynn ("Wit"), who gave their take on the state of the business and fielded questions from a fascinated audience. Other panels included "The Art of the Deal" and "Where's the Money?" both moderated and conducted by seasoned pros, including Nancy Gerstman (Zeitgeist Films), Janet Graham Borba (HBO), and entertainment attorney Kirk Schroeder. One small disappointment was the absence of producer (and UVA alumnus) Paul Junger Witt, who was scheduled to speak following the screening of his film "Three Kings" but canceled at the last minute due to health reasons.
Throughout the festival, a number of filmmakers based in Virginia were introduced or showcased, giving credence to the theory that one need not live in L.A. or New York to actually create good work. Notables included financier and producer Barry Sisson, whose "The Station Agent" won the 2003 audience award at Sundance and second film "Charlie's Party" is currently in post, Temple Fennell, co-president of ATO Pictures, a company founded along with Charlottesville resident Dave Matthews and producer Johnathan Dorfman, and directors David Williams, Jake Mahaffy, and Sundance alum Kevin Everson.
There were a number of non-film events of note, including the fourth-annual Fringe Festival, held in conjunction with the main festival and presented by the McIntire Department of Art. Held in a former grocery store near the downtown mall, the Fringe Festival celebrated money and the lack thereof and appealed mainly to the younger student crowd. Poetry slams, fashion shows, and talent showcases were just a few of the events open to the public and in most cases, free. Of particular note was a "sermon" by Reverend Billy of the Church of Stop Shopping, a performance artist based in New York City. Born Bill Talen, Reverend Billy rails against commercialism and commerce and ironically, was one of the few performers at the Fringe Festival that actually charged admission.
The most sought-after ticket was for the premiere of Robert Altman's "The Company," a glossy and intimate look at the life of professional dancers starring Neve Campbell, Malcolm McDowell, and the Joffrey Ballet of Chicago, scheduled for release by Sony Pictures Classics in December. On hand for an after screening discussion were co-stars John Gluckman and Suzanne Lopez as well as producer Josh Astrachan. Ballet fans will not be disappointed; the film is a visual pleasure and Campbell, an accomplished dancer who studied with the National Ballet of Canada, carries the lead role effortlessly.
The VFF has a decidedly tweedy, academic feel and the organizers like it that way. While not yet a major destination in the eyes of Hollywood, the VFF consistently brings world-class cinema to central Virginia and film fans seem to greatly enjoy the laid-back, urbane approach. When asked if the festival would ever include a competition, director Herskowitz replied, "Filmmakers can cite their film as a "Virginia Film Festival selection" (a rare honor, given the relatively small number of new films we select) without having to say they won first or second prize. Basically, filmmakers come to share their work with audiences and with each other, non-competitively, and we have no plans to change that."
The festival, by all accounts, was a rousing success. While this year there were no "marquee names" as in years past such as Nicolas Cage, Sigourney Weaver, or Sidney Portier, there were a few Hollywood stars attending as film fans but their presence was so low-key one would have to take second or third takes to identify them. This in itself is testimony to the power of great film and the board, staff, volunteers and participants should be proud. The only complaint is that several premiere films were scheduled opposite one another and tough decisions were made. This, however, is not necessarily a bad problem to have.

Question from Voltage360
Can the CCP jerkiness be fixed?
Can HVS fix the jerkiness for the CCP controller. I like to use MP5K and sometimes I dont have time to ADS(Aim Down Sight). When I dont if im not pointing at the enemy i have to move the stick and it moves too quick and not smoothly but still quick if your sensitivity is on high. I just want to know if HVS can fix that.
5 years ago
yeah but couldnt they let you customize ccp using all the options like in wiimote. that might make the ccp better if you cAn use all the sensitivity options for ccp.
5 years ago
Maybe but its very doubtfull because there are so many other things way higher up the list than something like that. Isn't there a sensetivity control option or something under the controls menu?
5 years ago
Possibly, but first I would really customize the controls as much as you could, but I don't know if they can completely fix it. Let me tell you this, Wiimote + nunchuck is definitely the best control method though, they kind just threw in CCP support for people who don't like the wiimote and stuff to get a few more sales...but it ended up not working out that well.

desperate, Fingers
prints on black and white
her hands tied
skinny wrists to the train line
trembling, Holding
fears she can't express
her eyes close
tiny fist in my hands, though
and she turns away, turns away
spilling tears on the subway
if birds could bend the iron rails
of cages, prisons, lies
and turn back time, unclip their wings,
regain that will to fly
as endless night returns to white,
someday they'll take the sky
cut all the lines, rise up on high,
like waking back to life.
sleepless, Frequent
eyes pried wide and powdered
for daybreak
steels herself for the heartbreak
hopeless, Highness
empty all your trust
as the doors close
the howling wind through the tunnels
then she'll glance back
sees her train on the wrong track
scares her to death scares her to death
scares me to death scares me to death
i'm a strange caveman
for a girl in a cave
scares me to death scares me to death
scares her to death scares her to death

Ukraine's president said on Friday he may pardon a close ally of jailed ex-premier Yulia Tymoshenko while also dismissing the idea of freeing the opposition leader herself.
President Viktor Yanukovych's three years in power have witnessed the jailing of several of the politicians who led the pro-democracy Orange Revolution of 2004.
These include Tymoshenko and her one-time interior minister Yuriy Lutsenko -- arrested while walking his dog outside his home in 2010.
Yanukovych said he would wait to see how Lutsenko's current appeal against his fraud conviction plays out in court before making a decision to pardon him.
"When the appeal court hearing ends, if it does not free him, I will review the issue of his pardon," Yanukovych said at a press conference marking his three years in power.
"Then it will be my turn."
Lutsenko was jailed for four years in February 2012 for embezzlement and abuse of office -- crimes related to extra pay he awarded his official driver.
"I have known Yuriy Lutsenko for a long time and I am sorry for him as a person. He is suffering from the stupidities he committed... I am not happy that he is suffering," Yanukovych said.
Lutsenko lawyer Igor Fomin noted that his client had not asked for a pardon because it would imply the assumption of guilt.
He said Yanukovych had the power to free his client without first receiving a pardon request from him.
"The pardons procedure is determined by the president," Fomin said. "The head of state can either keep the current procedure or change it."
Tymoshenko -- loser of a heated 2010 presidential election to Yanukovych -- was jailed for seven years in 2011 for overstepping her authority while prime minister by signing an unattractive gas deal with Russia.
She now also faces new charges of embezzlement and even co-organising the murder of a lawmaker in 1996.
Both politicians' cases have drawn strong criticism from United States while EU leaders have refused to sign an important trade agreement with Kiev until they are released.
But Yanukovych indicated he had no intention to pardon Tymoshenko by noting that her case "was very complicated" and a question to which "no one can give an unequivocal reply".
"I have said many times that I am not the investigator or the prosecutor. But today, when we know the story all the way to the end -- when we know that there were documents falsified -- that is why Tymoshenko was put on trial," he said.
"And the court found her guilty. Whether it is a just ruling a not -- the court made it.
"And he (the judge) gave her the minimum. The punishment envisioned by this crime is seven to 12 years."
Tymoshenko was also ordered to pay hundreds of millions of dollars in damages for the money the contract allegedly cost Ukraine.
Yanukovych said his rival may be eligible for the laxer rules of a new criminal code that does not jail white collar criminals for certain offences.
But he stressed that Tymoshenko would need to pay off her debt to the state to be considered for the exemptions.
"The new criminal procedures code humanises economic issues," Yanukovych said. "But under one condition -- that all the losses caused to the state are paid."
Ukrainian leaders generally have low approval ratings because politics -- after years of internal clan warfare -- are seen as corrupt.
And Yanukovych was also asked to explain how his son Olexander had grown up to become a hryvnia billionaire.
"I do not know any details," Yanukovych said. "I know that he is used to hard work."

Mérida (city, Mexico)
Mérida (mā´rēŧħä), city (1990 pop. 523,422), capital of Yucatán state, SE Mexico. It is the chief commercial, communications, and cultural center of the Yucatán peninsula. Founded (1542) by Francisco de Montejo, the younger, on the site of a ruined Mayan city, Mérida has many fine examples of Spanish colonial architecture, notably the 16th-century cathedral. Rooftop windmills, characteristic of this region, are used to pump water from underground wells and streams. The limited nature of the soil has made Mérida commercially dependent upon the large crops of henequen (see sisal hemp) from the surrounding region, and on tourists visiting nearby Mayan ruins, notably Chichén Itzá and Uxmal.

SY "HORIZONS" offshore the south coast of New Zealand in distress
Press release from: SatPro Int. Ltd. & Co. KG
On 22 November 2009 Luechtenborg had to send a distress alarm, because the SY "Horizons" was unable to manoeuvre by her own due to a broken rudder. The RESCUE COORDINATION CENTER NEW ZEALAND, organised the salvage of Luechtenborg with the cruising ship SEVEN SEAS MARINER. The decision to abandon his yacht 350 miles offshore the coast was a difficult one. On the one hand he could take the rescue offer of the cruising ship or stay alone on board without any means to manoeuvre his vessel. The decision was made easier through the satellite supported tracking system from SatPro, with which the recent position of the yacht can be transmitted worldwide. He left his yacht with the knowledge to find it again, with the aid of this tracking system.
On the 28 November 2009 Luechtenborg left with a fishing smack the harbour of Bluff to salvage the yacht, which drifted without crew. Thank to the permanent transmission of the positions could the fishing smack reach the yacht without a problem. Owner and yacht are happily reunited without any nameable damage. The tug and tow is expected to be back in the harbour of Bluff on the 01.12.2009. Only trough the use of the SatPro tracking system was Luechtenborg able to avoid an expensive total loss.
You can follow the next position of Luechtenborg and his yacht again, when he continues his travel on the map of: www.satpro.org/kundenlinks/horizons.php (an interesting screensaver)

The present invention relates to a process and an apparatus for printing webs of foil by web offset printing.
In the manufacture of plastic lids for food containers, for instance margarine cups, plastic foils are first of all printed flat and then brought into the desired shape by, for instance, deep-drawing.
At the present time, various processes are employed for the printing of the plastic material. For all processes, suitable plastic material is first of all extruded in the form of foil webs and wound onto rolls.
Large runs are printed in rotogravure with inks having a high content of solvent, a lengthy IR drying time being necessary. The production of the gravure cylinder is, of course, very difficult and expensive and requires long lead times (as a rule, at least six weeks). For these reasons, the rotogravure process cannot be employed for medium-size runs or where changes in design in a short time are desired.
It is furthermore known to print foil webs with UV drying inks in the web offset process. To be sure, strict requirements with respect to compatibility with the environment (see, for instance, Technical Instruction--Air) apply to UV-drying inks. This process is also only conditionally suitable for the manufacture of plastic containers. The foil webs printed in this way can, to be sure, also be shaped, but the UV-drying inks are brittle and cracks therefore occur upon the shaping so that the finished containers are not acceptable, at least from an aesthetic standpoint.
For medium-size runs, a sheet offset printing process is at present employed. The extruded plastic webs are cut into sheets, which are stacked. The sheets are then printed individually with oxidatively drying inks in a sheet-offset printing press by the dry offset printing process. The sheets then pass, one after the other, through an IR drying device. Before the stacking of the sheets, they are powdered with, for instance, a flour. A suitable particle size assures aeration between the sheets and thus easier drying and at the same time prevents the ink which has been applied and dried from detaching itself from the plastic layer and transferring itself onto the back of the sheet lying on top of it. Before the further processing of the sheets for the manufacture of, for instance, foodstuff containers, the sheets are again individualized and welded to each other at their edge so as to form a web, since it is only in web form that the printed material can be introduced economically into a suitable vacuum deep-drawing machine in which the container is shaped.
This process for medium-size runs of first of all cutting the plastic webs into sheets which are then individually printed, and then again bringing said sheets into web form by welding them together is, of course, very expensive. Therefore, for a long time it has been endeavored to print the plastic webs by web-offset printing before the deep-drawing. One problem in this connection is that UV inks which dry easily and rapidly by UV irradiation cannot be used in the offset printing process since - - - as mentioned above - - - the UV inks tear apart or become unsightly due to their brittle character upon the subsequent deep-drawing of the plastic web.
The use of oxidatively drying inks has not led to satisfactory results in web offset printing up to now despite many attempts by those skilled in the art. Since the oxidatively drying inks are not completely dried upon emergence from the IR drying device, the above-mentioned "transfer" onto the back of the following portion of the web occurs upon the winding of the web onto rolls.
With the present sheet offset printing process, on the average (including stop times) about 5000 sheets per hour are printed. The maximum speed of the sheet offset printing process is about 6500 sheets per hour. This would correspond in web offset printing to a speed of about 50 meters per minute (with a length of sheet of about 1/2 meter). Even attempts at operating the web offset printing with even lower printing speeds in order to achieve sufficient drying before the rolling-up of the web have failed up to now. Furthermore, all previous attempts of those skilled in the art to obtain faster drying of the oxidative drying inks before the rolling-up of the web by a greater application of heat have failed.
Thus, the problem forming the basis of the invention is to provide a process and an apparatus by which foil webs can be economically printed with oxidatively drying inks in web offset printing.
By the combination of features of the invention, the result is surprisingly obtained that foil webs can be economically printed with oxidatively drying inks by web offset printing. By the use of strongly oxidatively drying inks relatively short drying times result. Another essential feature is the combined heat/air drying by which the oxidative drying of the inks is achieved in optimal manner. By the air-drying portion, new oxygen is continuously fed to the layer of ink to be dried. Before they are wound up, the printed foil webs which have been subjected to the heat-air drying are conducted over at least one cooling roller, as a result of which the layer of ink is "quenched". One possible explanation for the effectiveness of this measure is that, due to the strong cooling, a sort of skin is formed over the ink which is still not yet completely dry, so that the foil web can be wound up without the still incompletely dried ink transferring itself to the rear of the sections of foil web which are wound-up thereafter. By the gradual reduction of the tension in the web with the increase in the diameter of the roll, the pressure on the inner parts of the wound roll is prevented in advantageous manner from increasing too greatly. In this way, the danger is advantageously counteracted that, as a result of the increasingly greater pressure on the core regions of the roll upon the winding-up, the layer of ink which as a general rule has not yet completely dried there would otherwise "transfer" itself to the rear of the foil web above it.
Before the printing, the foil web is preferably subjected to a corona pretreatment, which therefore makes the foil web "friendly" so that it accepts the ink better.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the printing is effected in so-called water-less offset printing, or dry offset printing, in which the printing plates are temperature-controlled and therefore, as a rule, cooled. In particular, upon dry offset printing it is advantageous to control the temperature also of the inks themselves in the inking units. The printing plates should be brought to temperatures of less than 27� C. and optimally to 23� C., and the temperature of the inking unit should preferably be 25� to 26� C.
After the application of the ink, a varnish which covers the entire printing is preferably applied. Since particularly in the case of multicolor offset printing with, for instance, three or four colors, each ink as a rule is applied to different regions of the surface, a uniform surface is obtained by the varnish which is to be applied thereover, which leads to a more uniform drying. As varnish, in particular acrylic varnish is suitable.
The heat-air drying hot-air drying advantageously comprises a given percentage of heat drying and a given percentage of air drying, depending on the printing conditions. It has been found that, depending on the printing conditions, and therefore, in particular, on the percentage of black in the print, the temperature, and the type or mixture of ink, in each case a different adjustment of the drying device is advantageous. The percentage is variable, in which connection, however, a given percentage of air drying must always be present in order to feed sufficient oxygen to the oxidatively drying ink during the drying process. The drying air in this connection is preferably cold air within a temperature range of 5� C. to 25� C.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the printed foil web which has been subjected to the heat-air drying is conducted, before being wound up, over two cooling rolls, the web being first of all conducted with its unprinted side over a first cooling roll and then with its printed side over another cooling roll. An explanation of the fact that it is possible at all to conduct the printed side of the web over a cooling roll resides probably in the fact that due to the cooling effected by the first cooling roll the foil web as a whole is "quenched" to such an extent that a skin is formed over the layer of ink or varnish. Due probably to this "skin", the conducting of the printed side of the foil web over the further cooling roll does not result in any impairment in the quality of the print. The cooling rolls preferably have a temperature within the range of 5� C. to 15� C. It is furthermore essential that, in particular, the cooling roll over which the printed side of the foil webs is conducted be driven in synchronism with the speed of the web so that there is no difference in speed at any time between roll and web.
In accordance with another preferred embodiment, after the heat-air drying and before the foil web is wound up, it is powdered in known manner with, for instance, a rice powder or a potato powder of a particle size which assures a certain aeration between sections of the foil web which lie above one another and thus assures an easier drying out.
The winding web tension preferably decreases linearly with the increase in the diameter of the roll. To be sure, it is also possible to reduce the tension progressively or degressively.
It is furthermore advantageous to provide the rolling or unrolling unit in each case with a known roll change device so that changes of rolls can be effected without interrupting the printing.
It is of particular advantage furthermore to provide the printing device with replaceable format drawers with different printing-plate sizes for the printing of sections of different length. When printing copy for, for instance, food container lids in very large runs, large amounts of cuttings can result with a constant size of the printing plate and variation of the size of the lid. This can be optimized by, for instance, providing three different sizes of printing plate. With only three different printing-plate sizes, the greatest part of all food-container lids or lid sizes can be printed economically and therefore without excessive cuttings.
In particular in the field of foodstuffs, it is frequently desirable or even demanded for marketing reasons that printing be effected with gold inks. Attractive gold inks exist as a general rule only in the form of UV drying inks. To this extent it may be advantageous to provide in the printing press a special inking unit, for instance, for UV-drying gold inks, in which case a UV-drying device should be associated directly with the inking or printing unit in order to dry the gold ink before entrance into a subsequent inking unit. In connection with the special ink printing device, a gravure unit can, for instance, also be provided. If both oxidative drying and UV-drying inks are printed on a foil web, it is as a general rule unavoidable to provide behind same a varnishing unit such as already described above. Acrylic varnish has the advantage that it dries faster than the oxidatively drying inks.
IR-drying units are particularly suitable as heat-drying units.
Other advantages, features and possibilities for the use of the present invention will become evident from the following description of an embodiment, read in conjunction with the drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic side view of an apparatus in accordance with the invention for the printing of foil webs in web offset printing.
FIG. 2 diagrammatically shows a printing device having a printing unit provided therein.
FIG. 3 diagrammatically shows a heat-air drying device provided in accordance with the invention.
FIG. 4 shows two cooling rolls over which the foil web is guided in accordance with the invention before it is wound up.
FIG. 5 diagrammatically shows a device for controlling the tension in the web before it is wound up.
A diagrammatic side view of an apparatus in accordance with the invention for the printing of foil webs in web offset printing is shown in FIG. 1.
A foil web 10 wound on an unwinding roll 22 in an unwinding unit 2 is conducted into a printing unit 4 and then passes through an after-treatment unit 5 before it is wound up on a roll 82 in a winding unit 8.
The printing unit 4 comprises, for instance, four offset printing devices 4a to 4d for the four-color offset printing, and therefore one printing unit each for black, magneta, cyan, and yellow, and it furthermore comprises a gravure printing unit 4e as well as a varnishing unit 4f.
Each offset printing device 4a-4d comprises, as diagrammatically shown in FIG. 2, a printing unit for indirect offset printing having a plate cylinder 40, a rubber-blanket cylinder 42, and an impression cylinder 44, the foil web being conducted between the rubber-blanket cylinder 42 and the impression cylinder 44. The printing devices are dry offset printing devices, both the inking units (not shown here) and the plate cylinders being temperature controlled in a manner not shown. The inking units are preferably cooled to a temperature of 25� to 26� C. and the plate cylinders preferably to a temperature of about 23� C.
Each of the printing devices 4a-4d has a replaceable printing unit, so that different printing units having different plate-cylinder diameters or plate sizes can be used.
Furthermore, a corona pretreatment unit, not shown in the figures, is arranged in front of the printing devices 4a-4d in order to make the foil web "friendly" for the offset application of the ink.
The printing devices 4a-4d have behind them a special ink unit 4e. The special ink unit 4e in the case of this embodiment is a gravure unit for printing the foil material with UV-drying gold inks. To this extent a UV-drying device is also provided in the special inking unit 4e in order to dry the ink directly before the further process steps.
It is frequently necessary, for marketing reasons, in the case of plastic foodstuff packings to have certain packing parts or sections appear in gold colors so as to stimulate the desire to buy. Since, however, the gold effect necessary for marketing reasons is not obtained with oxidatively drying gold inks, in this embodiment the special inking unit 4e for the printing of sections with UV-drying gold inks is provided.
A varnishing unit 4f is arranged behind the special inking unit 4e. Within the varnishing unit 4f, a layer of varnish, preferably acrylic varnish, is applied over the entire application of the ink which is applied by the printing devices 4a-4d as well as the special printing unit 4e. In this way, a uniform surface, which as a result is easier to work, is obtained for the following process steps. Furthermore, the acrylic varnish used here dries more easily than the oxidatively drying inks supplied in the printing devices 4a-4d.
After passage through the varnishing unit 4f, the foil web 10 is introduced into an after-treatment unit 5 in which the foil web is subjected to a heat-air drying and conducted over two cooling rolls, as described below. After emergence from the after-treatment unit 5, the foil web is wound up on a roll 82 in a winding unit 8.
Both the unwinding unit 2 and the winding unit 8 are provided with roll-change devices (not shown), so that a change of foil web roll can be effected without interrupting the printing. Furthermore, a device for controlling the winding tension of the web, explained in detail below, is present in the winding unit 8.
The heat-air drying device 6 provided in the after-treatment unit 5 comprises on a drying path T, as shown in FIG. 3, heat-drying units 62 which in this embodiment consist of IR drying devices, as well as air-drying units 64, which are distributed in each case alternately over the drying path T. The corresponding proportion of heat-drying devices and air-drying devices 64 in the drying performance can be adjusted. In this way it is possible to adjust the nature of the drying to the printing conditions as a function of, for instance, the proportion of black in the printing, the nature of the ink and varnish used, etc. In each case, the drying comprises an air drying in order to feed sufficient oxygen for the oxidatively drying inks. Under certain printing conditions, however, the heating portion can be dispensed with entirely. The temperature of the drying air should lie within the range of 5� C. to 25� C. and therefore in the region of cold air.
The heat-air drying device can preferably be constructed of IR-air-drying devices, known per se, which are available on the market with a length of 17 cm per unit. In the apparatus of the invention, at least 15 of such units are used, with a total length accordingly of at least 2 1/2 meters. The drying path T is preferably about 3.5 meters.
After the foil web has passed through the heat-air drying device 6, it is first of all conducted with its unprinted side over a cooling roll 7a and then with its printed side over another cooling roll 7b, as can be noted from FIG. 4. In order to conduct the foil web over the largest possible angle around the cooling rolls 7a, 7b, the foil web 10 is deflected by guide rollers 12. The guide rollers 12 are not driven but have, however, especially developed surfaces so that the quality of the printing is not reduced by the deflection.
After the foil web has been moved over the two cooling rolls 7a, 7b, it passes through a device for controlling the winding tension of the web, before being wound onto the roll 82.
In this embodiment, the device for controlling the tension of the web is formed by a deflection pendulum 86 the pendulum position of which can be controlled by a motor 84, possibly as a function of other parameters such as the thickness of the foil web, the speed of the web, etc. The guide rollers 12 described above are also used in the web tension control device, as can be noted from FIG. 5.
The winding tension of the web is so controlled in accordance with the invention that the tension of the web upon the winding decreases with increasing diameter of the roll. In the embodiment described, the relationship between diameter of the roll and tension of the web is linear. However, it is also possible to effect a progressive or degressive control depending, for instance, on the nature of the foil web 10.
With this embodiment of the apparatus of the invention described for the printing of foil webs with oxidatively drying inks in web offset printing, foil webs can be economically printed in medium-sized runs with good quality. In particular, the cutting of the extruded foil webs into sheets and the welding of the sheets together to form a foil web require prior to the further working which were required in the sheet offset process previously used are eliminated. By the combination of the features of the invention, the goal which has been desired for a long time by those skilled in the art of being able to print foil webs with oxidatively drying inks in web offset printing has been achieved in a surprising manner.

A number of significant historical events have occurred in...
Freedom Singers
During the early 1960s the Freedom Singers, from Albany, performed throughout the country to raise funds for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and to inform audiences about the grassroots organizing campaigns expanding in communities across the South.
Perhaps because it originated in the black church, where congregational singing had traditionally formed an essential part of worship, southern civil rights protest was commonly accompanied by the music of the black choral tradition. Whether sung in churches or in jails, such freedom songs as "Oh Freedom (Over Me)" and "This Little Light of Mine" helped to shape the movement and sustain it in moments of crisis. Most freedom songs were common hymns or spirituals familiar to the southern black community; the lyrics were often modified to reflect the political aims of the civil rights movement rather than the spiritual aims of a congregation. The songs not only reflected the views and values of the movement's participants but also, in the case of the Freedom Singers, helped to share them with a national audience.
Nowhere was the transformative power of song more apparent than in Albany. News reports from the small southwest Georgia town highlighted the impressive range and depth of the region's singers, and even seasoned organizers expressed amazement at the force of Albany's congregational singing. After witnessing the galvanizing effect of the town's singers during a visit to Albany in 1962, folk singer Pete Seeger suggested to SNCC executive secretary James Forman that a touring group might help raise funds for the civil rights organization's future campaigns.
The Freedom Singers formed in December 1962 under the leadership of SNCC field secretary Cordell Reagon, a veteran of the sit-in movement in Nashville, Tennessee, where music played a similarly important role. With the help of Albany natives Rutha Mae Harris and Bernice Johnson, whom he later married, Reagon recruited Charles Neblett, a veteran of civil rights demonstrations in Cairo, Illinois, and the four performers left Albany to tour the country in support of civil rights and the goals of SNCC.
Over the next nine months, the group traveled 50,000 miles through forty states in a Buick station wagon, playing at colleges, elementary and high schools, concert halls, living rooms, jails, political rallies, and the March on Washington in August 1963. During their initial tour, the group performed alongside numerous folk music luminaries, including Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Peter, Paul, and Mary, and in June 1963, the New York Times identified the Freedom Singers as "the ablest performing group" to emerge from a broad field of folk musicians.
Although the original Freedom Singers disbanded after recording an album in 1963, later incarnations continued to perform under the same name. Bernice Johnson Reagon later enjoyed success as a founding member of Atlanta's Harambee Singers and as the organizer and founder of the critically acclaimed singing group Sweet Honey in the Rock. In 1995 Rutha Mae Harris formed the Albany Civil Rights Museum Freedom Singers, who perform once a month at the museum.

Re: Best nation of domination members
I would say the rock - although not really remembered by newer fans for his n.o.d time -- was the best...
Re: Best Nation Of Domination members
Would have to be Rocky as he was a damn good heel during the early stages of 1998. Always had a soft spot for D'Lo too.
Wait a minute...
Re: Best Nation Of Domination members
I approached this as who was most important to the Nation group and what their contributions were to the faction.
1. The Rock- just starting to emerge and perfect his persona
2. Faarooq- was the driving force behind the group and handled a lot of the early mic time
3. D'Lo Brown- early loyalist but really started to find his own character under the Rock
4. Owen Hart- brought a different angle but never really seemed to fit in
5. Ahmed Johnson- a shame about the injuries because the turn could have been more if handled better
The rest can get throw in a bag and picked out at any order and I would be okay with whatever order came out. Mainly just a lot of hired muscle.
Re: Best Nation Of Domination members
Never really understood why they had Owen Hart join the Nation. I understand the Owen face run at the beginning of 1998 was a disaster but turning him heel by joining an all-black group was strange.
Looking back I guess they wanted to push the Nation to the next level and it worked out for them thanks to the feud with D-Generation X (which may have been a result of long term thinking thanks to the Owen-Triple H rivalry). Well, everyone except Owen, who was just left floundering in rubbish feuds with Dan Severn and Steve Blackman.
Re: Best Nation Of Domination members

I was super excited about this pie. It seemed simple enough. I was slightly confused by the directions to 'pour' the flour, sugar and egg over the apple slices because what I had closely resembled play-doh. I remained optimistic however and went ahead and microwaved it. It came out with a chunk of dough on top the consistency of expanding insulation foam with some apple slices glued to the bottom of it. Unless I missed something, I would not try this again.

And then I forgot to save and wound back up where I hadnt fought the leader, so I just gave up and used the '5000 XP' GS Code to power train my Bagon to be Shelgon.
