Understanding Figurative Language: From Metaphor to Idioms
· Rating Details · 6 Ratings · 1 Review
This book examines how people understand utterances that are intended figuratively. Traditionally, figurative language such as metaphors and idioms has been considered derivative from more complex than ostensibly straightforward literal language. Glucksberg argues that figurative language involves the same kinds of linguistic and pragmatic operations that are used for ordi ...more

Glucksberg argues for what is called the "property attribution model" of metaphorical comprehension, which holds that metaphors are essentially akin to statements like "Trieste is no Vienna", where "Vienna" is not the name of a city, but stands for some exemplary category that characterizes Vienna (in this case, something like being a cosmopolitan city). This contrasts with the traditional picture (advocated by Grice and Searle, for example), that comprehending a metaphor involves first grasping ...more

One more thing.... I can tell you for sue, the earth has tilted big time since last year....why there is not more concern about this has me baffled.
From my vantage point, the sun is rising way far south of east than this time last year....... Unless someone has rotated my cabin while I've been gone lol
This in itself could be part of the cause for the erratic weather systems.
The cause of the tilt on the other hand ,..... Oh that view from space would be awesome .
Some say the earth is expanding... Some say the sun is expanding.
Some say the earth is getting ripped apart,....
The sun and earth are reacting....just as they have reacted before......In a galactic sense, it happens all the time....but in our brains time zone it's never happened........ We are so young..... I'd say we're still embryos.
You just hit on what got me interested in earth changes in the first place. The winter of 2010-2011 the moon looked different and the sun was coming up in the wrong place. That started my search. Started keeping track of where the sun rose and set at whatever time of the year it was, and there is a big difference, yet it is never talked about. DH use to drive into work into the sun during the late spring and summer...no longer. It is more to the south now.
The USDA changed the planting zones and blamed it on global warming (ha ha ha or is that blah blah blah) though I think it has more to do with the fact the earth and sun are no longer in the same positions, not sure which one has actually done the moving. Seems to me that we would be experiencing even MORE earth changes if the earth was physically shifting as much as it seems to have but if it is the sun that is moving, maybe that is why a pole shift isn't tearing Earth up more??
I am with you Gabe, why isn't EVERYONE talking about this? Is it one of those things that MSM might have mentioned with a tongue in check attitude so that if anyone actually talks about it, they are considered a loon?
Oh and when I first noticed the moon looked different, at the time it looked like - if you were looking at the full moon - as if more of the left and bottom part of the moon was showing more. During this summer it seems to have gone back to normal.
Edited to add: PS I haven't mentioned it here because I DID think you would all think I was a loon too, but I would talking about ringing ears, lol

This is a division of the application Ser. No. 08/269,276 filed Jun. 30, 1994 which is now abandoned.
The present invention relates to an agent for fiber treatment and, more particularly, to an agent for water-repellent treatment of fibers (which is abbreviated to a water repellent, hereinafter) which can impart highly durable water repellency to fibers and the like under a simple process of treatment without exerting any bad influence on the environment.
As for the method of giving water repellency to natural or synthetic fibers, there has so far been known the method of treating the fibers with silicone compounds capable of functioning as water repellent. In such a method, fibers are treated under high temperature. Therefore, that method has a disadvantage in being subject to restrictions on the species of fiber to which it is applicable. In addition, it has defects in that it has low producibility because it requires a long treatment time and in that the water repellency is insufficient in durability.
For the purpose of diminishing such defects, there have been submitted such proposals as to apply heat to certain silicone compounds to cause cross-linking reaction therein, thereby enabling them to produce water repellency and durability (Japanese Tokko Sho Nos. 51-9440, 51-27465 and 53-4158). However, those proposals fail to ensure satisfactory water repellency and durability if the treatment is deficient in temperature and time, and so they are still insufficient for the purpose.
On the other hand, it has also been known that fluorine-containing polymers, including homopolymers polymerizable monomers containing perfluoro or fluoroalkyl groups in their individual molecules and copolymers of said monomers and other polymerizable monomers, can produce an excellent water-repellent effect, and an antisoiling effect also, upon textile fabrics and the like even when they are used in a relatively small amount. Also, these polymers have been utilized as surface finishing agent in the fields of the leather processing industry, the manufacture of building materials and so on.
In giving water repellency or the like to textile goods, leather, building materials and so on, it is most convenient for ordinary consumers to use an agent for such a treatment in the form of aerosol spray.
In order to efficiently provide materials as cited above with water repellency by the spraying operation of an aerosol, however, various restrictions are placed on the water repellent composition.
More specifically, it is required of the composition to satisfy the following necessary conditions:
(1) a jet gas for the aerosol has high compatibility with and a good chemical affinity for a raw solution to be compounded therewith,
(2) a water repellent is homogeneously dissolved in the composition,
(3) when the composition is sprayed onto a material to be treated therewith, it can readily wet the surface of the material and moderately permeate thereinto, and so on.
Only when these conditions are fulfilled can the aerosol be uniformly sprayed and provide excellent water-repelling and antisoiling properties without causing a powder-coated, napping, whitening or another undesirable phenomenon.
Moreover, it is important to ordinary consumers that the water repellent composition is high in safety and free from unpleasant odor. These points are concerned as to the organic solvent incorporated in the water repellent composition.
The foregoing known fluorine-containing polymers are insoluble in alcohols of lower toxicity, such as ethanol. If the solvent is chosen from the standpoint of solubility, therefore, it can be found in the group of ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, etc., the group of esters such as ethyl acetate, etc., the group of aliphatic hydrocarbons such as n-hexane, n-heptane, etc., the group of aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene, etc., and the group of chlorinated hydrocarbons such as 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, etc.
However, most of the above-cited solvents cannot satisfy some of the above-described conditions (1) to (3). Eventually, it is found that 1,1,1-trichloroethane alone can be used as solvent for the foregoing fluorine-containing polymers.
However, 1,1,1-trichloroethane has been lately considered a cause of destruction of the ozone layer in the atmosphere, and so the current practice is to place the use thereof under restriction from the standpoint of protecting the global environment.
Such being the case, efforts have been made to search for other solvents applicable to the foregoing fluorine-containing polymers and capable of substituting for 1,1,1-trichloroethane. However, such efforts have not yet produced satisfactory results.
On the other hand, we have made intensive studies on substitutes for the foregoing fluorine-containing polymers instead of those for the solvent. As a result, it has been found out acryl-silicone graft copolymers not only can exhibit excellent performance with respect to water repellency and an antisoiling property but also are favorable for resolving the above-described environmental problem because of their good solubility in organic solvents containing alcohols as a main component, thereby achieving the present invention.
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an agent for fiber treatment which can give highly durable water repellency to materials treated therewith by a simple operation without having any bad influences on environments.
The above-described object is attained with a water repellent for fibers which comprises an acryl-silicone graft copolymer prepared by radical copolymerization reaction of an organopolysiloxane compound containing one radical polymerizable group with radical polymerizable monomers including an acrylate, a methacrylate or a mixture thereof as a main member.
The acryl-silicone graft copolymer as the main ingredient of the present water repellent for fibers can be prepared by causing radical copolymerization between (1) an organopolysiloxane compound containing one radical polymerizable group and (2) radical polymerizable monomers including an acrylate, a methacrylate or a mixture thereof as a main member.
The organopolysiloxane compound (1) does not have any particular restriction, except that it must contain one radical polymerizable group, such as an acrylic group, a methacrylic group, a styryl group, a cinnamyl group, a vinyl group, an allyl group, etc. However, it is preferable for the organopolysiloxane compound to be a radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer represented by the following general formula (I), because such a macromonomer can readily copolymerize with radical polymerizable monomers and can be synthesized with ease: ##STR1## wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R2 represents a divalent hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms and the carbon chain of which may be divided into some moieties by oxygen atoms, R3 represents a methyl group or a trimethylsiloxy group, R4 represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, n represents an integer of from 3 to 200, and m represents an integer of from 1 to 3.
Specific examples of R2 include --CH2 --, --(CH2)2 --, --(CH2)3 --, --CH2 CH(CH3)CH2 --, --(CH2)6 --, --(CH2)12 --, --(CH2)2 --O--(CH2)3 --, --(CH2)2 --O--(CH2) 2 --O--(CH2)3 --, and the like, and those of R4 include --CH3, --CH2 CH3, --CH2 CH2 CH3, --CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 and the like.
n represents an integer of from 3 to 200, preferably from 6 to 100. When n is smaller than 3, satisfactory water repellency cannot be achieved; while, when it is larger than 200, the resulting acryl-silicone graft copolymer is inferior in film forming ability, and so it fails to provide adequate durability.
The radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer of general formula (I) can be prepared from a (meth)acrylic group-substituted chlorosilane compound represented by the following general formula (II) and a hydroxy-terminated dimethylpolysiloxane compound represented by the following general formula (III) by causing a dehydrochlorination reaction therebetween in a conventional manner, or it can be prepared from the compound represented by general formula (II) and a Li-terminated dimethylpolysiloxane compound represented by the following general formula (IV) by causing a lithium chloride elimination reaction therebetween in a conventional manner: ##STR2## The preparation methods of the present silicone macromonomers, however, should not be construed as being limited to the above-recited ones.
Specific examples of the radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer of the foregoing general formula (I) are illustrated below. ##STR3##
On the other hand, the term "acrylate and/or methacrylate (abbreviated to (meth)acrylate, hereinafter)", which constitute the component (2), describes ester compound(s) of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid. Specific examples thereof include alkyl (meth) acrylates, such as methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, etc.; hydroxyalkyl (meth) acrylates, such as 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, etc.; fluorine-substituted alkyl (meth)acrylates, such as trifluoropropyl (meth) acrylate, perfluorobutylethyl (meth)acrylate, perfluorooctylethyl (meth) acrylate, etc.,; epoxy-containing (meth)acrylates, such as glycidyl (meth)acrylate, 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl (meth)acrylate, etc.; and so on.
It is desirable that the proportion of (meth)acrylate be at least 50% by weight to the total of radical polymerizable monomers to copolymerize with the organopolysiloxane compounds as the component (1).
A reason for making such a limitation is as follows: When the proportion of (meth)acrylate is less than 50% by weight, the copolymer obtained tends to have insufficient film forming property and so the film formed by the treatment is sometimes deficient in durability.
Examples of radical polymerizable monomers, other than (meth) acrylate, which can be used in the present invention include (meth) acrylic acid; acrylamide; styrene and derivatives thereof; fumaric acid, maleic acid and derivatives thereof; radical polymerizable silicon compounds such as vinyltrimethoxysilane, γ-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysil ane, etc.; acrylonitrile; vinyl pyrrolidone; vinyl acetate; vinyl alkyl ethers; and radical polymerizable macromonomers such as polyoxyalkylenes containing one radical polymerizable group, polycaprolactones containing one radical polymerizable group, and so on.
In the present copolymerization, the ratio of the organopolysiloxane compound containing one radical polymerizable group (Component (1)) to the total of radical polymerizable monomers, including (meth)acrylate as a main member (Component (2)), or the Component (1)/Component (2) ratio, is in the range of desirably 5/95 to 80/20 by weight, more desirably 10/90 to 60/40 by weight.
When the Component (1)/Component (2) ratio is less than 5/95 by weight, the resulting copolymer may not provide sufficient water repellency; while when the ratio is increased beyond 80/20 by weight, it may not have adequate film-forming property.
The copolymerization of the component (1), namely the organopolysiloxane compound containing one radical polymerizable group, and the component (2), namely the radical polymerizable monomers including (meth)acrylate as a main member, is carried out in the presence of a generally used radical polymerization initiator, including peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide, dicumyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, etc.; azo compounds such as 2,2'-azobis(2-methylbutyronitrile), etc.; and so on. Therein, any of a solution polymerization method, an emulsion polymerization method, a suspension polymerization method and a bulk polymerization method can be adopted.
Of these polymerization methods, a solution polymerization method is particularly preferred in the present invention because it is easy to control the molecular weight of the intended acryl-silicone graft copolymer to the optimal range.
Suitable examples of a solvent used in that method include aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, etc.; ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, etc.; esters such as ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, etc.; and alcohols such as ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, etc. These solvents may be used alone or as a mixture of two or more thereof.
It is desirable to carry out the polymerization at a temperature of from 50� to 180� C., preferably from 60� to 120� C. If the polymerization is performed under such a temperature condition, it can be completed within a period of abut 5 to 10 hours.
As for the thus prepared acryl-silicone graft copolymer, it is desirable that the weight average molecular weight thereof measured by GPC (which stands for gel permeation chromatography) be in the range of 5,000 to 500,000, preferably 10,000 to 100,000, reduced to a polystyrene basis. When the copolymer has a weight average molecular weight less than 5,000, it may be too poor in film forming ability to provide sufficient durability; while when the weight average molecular weight thereof is increased beyond 500,000 the textile treated therewith tends to have an unpleasant look and touch.
The thus prepared acryl-silicone graft copolymers can be made into a water repellent for textile by merely dissolving them in one or more of a solvent chosen from among the above-cited solvents, halogenated hydrocarbons such as trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, etc., aliphatic hydrocarbons such as n-hexane, cyclohexane, isooctane, etc.; or so on.
Also, the aqueous dispersion obtained by the emulsion polymerization or suspension polymerization, the aqueous dispersion obtained by the solution polymerization, or the emulsion of the copolymer obtained by the solution polymerization can be made into a water-base water repellent for textile as it is, or by dilution with water.
The concentration of the acryl-silicone copolymer as a main agent ranges preferably from 0.5 to 20% by weight, particularly preferably from 2 to 15% by weight. When the concentration is less than 0.5% by weight, sufficient repellency may not be obtained because to small an amount of the agent applied to the textile; while when it is greater than 20% by weight, the amount applied is too much, and so the resulting textile probably has an unpleasant look and touch and further may cause a whitening or powder-coated phenomenon.
The thus prepared water repellent composition which contains as a main agent the present acryl-silicone copolymer can confer satisfactory water repellency on natural or synthetic fibers, textile fabrics, paper sheets and so on merely by applying it to these materials in a usual manner, e.g., using a dip or spray coating method, and then drying. In particular, it is preferable to use the water repellent composition in the form of aerosol spray for the convenience of treatment.
When the present water repellent composition is prepared in the form of aerosol spray, it is desirable for the composition to consist of 0.5-20%, preferably 2-15%, by weight of the present acryl-silicone graft copolymer, 30-98.5% by weight of an organic solvent containing alcohols as the main component and 1-50%, preferably 2.5-40%, by weight of a jet gas.
As for the alcohols contained as the main component in the foregoing organic solvent, monohydric alcohols, such as ethanol, isopropyl alcohol and the like, and dihydric alcohols, such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and the like, are examples thereof. In particular, it is advantageous to use ethanol or isopropyl alcohol.
In the foregoing composition, the proportion of alcohols for the whole organic solvent is preferably at least 80 wt %.
Specific examples of other solvents which may be mixed with alcohols include aromatic hydrocarbons, such as toluene, xylene, etc.; aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as n-hexane, n-heptane, etc.; esters, such as ethyl acetate, etc.; ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, etc.; chlorinated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, etc.; and alicyclic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane, etc. These solvents may be used alone or as a mixture of two or more thereof.
When the water repellent composition comprises less than 30% by weight of an organic solvent containing alcohols as the main component, it may have a disadvantage in causing a powder-coated or whitening phenomenon; while when it comprises more than 98.5% by weight of the organic solvent, it tends to suffer from disadvantages such that it can hardly be used in the form of aerosol because of difficulty in atomization thereof and the water repellency provided thereby is not adequate.
The jet gas is a component necessary for atomizing the water-repellent composition of the present invention, and can be properly chosen from conventionally used ones. More specifically, propane, butane, dimethyl ether, carbonic acid gas and nitrogen gas can be used alone or as a mixture of two or more thereof depending on the spraying condition and the requisite gas pressure.
The amount of a jet gas depends greatly on the kind of the gas used, and so a sweeping limitation cannot be put thereon. In general, however, it can be said that when the proportion of a jet gas is less than 1% by weight the resulting composition may not be made into aerosol, while when it is increased beyond 50% by weight the resulting composition tends to have a disadvantage in causing a power-coated or whitening phenomenon.
In accordance with the present invention, the agent for fiber treatment is an acryl-silicone graft copolymer, and this copolymer enables the use of alcohols as a solvent for the fiber-treatment composition. Therefore, the present composition has no bad influences on the environment when it is used in the form of atomized spray, and can provide highly durable water repellency.
Now, the present invention will be illustrated in more detail by reference to the following examples. However, the invention should not be construed as being limited to those examples.
To begin with, acryl-silicone graft copolymers used in the following examples were synthesized as follows.
A one-liter glass flask equipped with a stirrer, a condenser and a thermometer was charged with 300 g of toluene. Thereinto, a mixture of 90 g of a radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer having the chemical formula illustrated below, 150 g of methylmethacrylate, 60 g of butylmethacrylate and 6 g of 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile was dripped over a period of 2 hours as nitrogen gas was admitted thereinto and the temperature of the reaction system was kept at 80�-90� C.
Further, the reactants described above underwent 5 hours' polymerization reaction at 80�-90� C., and then cooled to room temperature. The resulting reaction mixture was poured into 3 liter of methanol to form a precipitate of the intended acryl-silicone graft copolymer.
The precipitate was dried at 120� C. under reduced pressure of 5 mmHg. Thus, 271 g of a colorless transparent solid was obtained. The weight average molecular weight thereof determined by GPC was abut 65,000, reduced to a polystyrene basis. ##STR4##
The other acryl-silicone graft copolymer was synthesized in the same manner as in Synthesis Example 1, except that 150 g of a radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer having the chemical formula illustrated below was used in place of the radical polymerizable silicone macromonomer used in synthesis example 1, the amount of methylmethacrylate was changed to 105 g and 45 g of 2-ethylhexylacrylate was used in place of the butylmethacrylate. Thus, 282 g of a colorless transparent solid was obtained. The weight average molecular weight thereof determined by GPC was about 58,000, reduced to a polystyrene basis. ##STR5##
Two parts by weight of the acryl-silicone graft copolymer obtained in Synthesis Example 1 was dissolved in 98 parts by weight of isopropanol to prepare a water repellent composition.
In the water repellent composition, textile fabrics of polyester taffeta, nylon taffeta and cotton broadcloth were dipped, and then they were taken out and excess water repellent was removed therefrom. After 2 minutes' drying at 80� C., the foregoing textile fabrics each underwent a spray water repellency test (according to JISL-1092-1986). The results obtained are shown in Table 1.
There was examined to what extent each fabric got wet in spraying water onto the front surface of the cloth. Therein, the water repellency was evaluated according to a criterion described below:
1 ) when a fabric was wet all over on not only the front side but also the back side, the water repellency was evaluated as 0,
2) when a fabric was wet all over on the front side alone, the water repellency was evaluated as 50,
3 ) When the front surface of a fabric was wet in half of its area and fine waterdrops infiltrated scatteringly into the fabric, the water repellency was evaluated as 70,
4) When the front surface of a fabric was wet with fine waterdrops scattered all over, the water repellency was evaluated as 80,
5) When the front surface of a fabric was not wet but fine waterdrops adhered thereto, the water repellency was evaluated as 90, and
6) when the front surface of a fabric neither got wet at all nor had waterdrops adhering thereto, the water repellency was evaluated as 100.
Another water repellent composition was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the acryl-silicone graft copolymer obtained in Synthesis Example 2 was used in place of the acryl-silicone graft copolymer used in Example 1. This water repellent composition was subjected to the same water repellency test as in Example 1. The results obtained are shown in Table 1.
A solution consisting of 3 parts by weight of methylhydrogenpolysiloxane having the following chemical formula, 2 parts by weight of zinc octanoate and 95 parts by weight of toluene was subjected to the same water repellency test as in Example 1. The results obtained are shown in Table 1.

The data set forth above demonstrate that the water repellent compositions prepared in accordance with the present invention are significantly superior in water repellency to conventional ones.
The water repellent-treated polyester taffeta obtained in Example 1 was examined for durability of its water repellency according to the procedure described below:
The treated fabric was put in the washing bath of an electric washing machine for domestic use, to which sodium alkylbenzenesulfonate and sodium carbonate were added in proportions of 5 g and 2 g, respectively, for 1 liter of water, and washed for 15 minutes under a washing water temperature of 50� C. Therein, the bath ratio, or the ratio of the weight (Kg) of the fabric washed to the volume (l) of the washing water used, was 1:100. After thorough rinsing and drying, the resulting cloth was subjected to the same spray water repellency test as described above. This procedure was carried out again and again.
The results obtained are shown in Table 2.
Polyester taffeta was dipped in the water repellent composition prepared in Example 1, and then taken out thereof. After removal of excess water repellent, the resulting taffeta was dried at room temperature for 5 hours. Then, it was examined for durability of its water repellency by repeating the same washing procedure as in Example 3. Thus, the results shown in Table 2 are obtained.
The water repellent-treated polyester taffeta obtained in Example 2 was examined for durability of its water repellency according to the same procedure as carried out in Example 3. Thus, the results shown in Table 2 are obtained.
Polyester taffeta was treated in the same manner as in Example 4, except that the water repellent composition prepared in Example 2 was used in place of that prepared in Example 1, and examined for durability of its water repellency according to the same procedure as in Example 4. Thus, the results shown in Table 2 are obtained.
Polyester taffeta was dipped in the same water repellent composition as prepared in Comparative Example 1, and taken out thereof. After removal of excess water repellent, the resulting taffeta was subjected to a heat treatment at 150� C. for 2 minutes, and then examined for durability of its water repellency according to the same procedure as carried out in Example 3. Thus, the results shown in Table 2 are obtained.

The data set forth above demonstrate that the water repellents prepared in accordance with the present invention are decidedly superior in durability of water repellency to conventional ones.
Aerosol-form water repellents were prepared using components (I), (II) and (III) in various mixing proportions (% by weight) set forth in Table 3 according to a conventional manner.
Each of the water repellents was uniformly sprayed in the form of aerosol onto a black cloth of cuprammonium rayon from a distance of 20 cm, and examined by visual observation as to whether or not a powder-coated or whitening phenomenon occurred just after spraying, and further as to whether or not such a phenomenon was caused after air drying. The results judged by a criterion described below are shown in Table 3.
◯: The treated cloth is in the same surface condition as the untreated cloth has (No whitening phenomenon).
Δ: The surface of the treated cloth is somewhat whitened, compared with the untreated cloth.
X: An appreciable whitening phenomenon is observed at the surface of the treated cloth.

But this very family can also be the only weakness that a dad has. As a dad, a man has to show only his resilient side, as he knows that if he shows even a hint of weakness, his family may crumble when times get tough. Still, many a father have shed a silent, secret tear when things get too much to bear. For all the wonderful things they do for their families, surely they are allowed their own moment of weakness. This Father's Day weekend, write a story about such moments that may come in a father's life.

Houston cop's '666' badge scares criminals
Officer's grandfather wore the number, too
By Moises Mendoza
Houston Chronicle
HOUSTON — Houston Police Officer Carl Black still remembers getting ready to fight the hulking 6-foot-6, 280-pound thug who was threatening him about 17 years ago. The suspect readied to attack as he ripped off his shirt and shouted "You're not going to take me to jail!"
Then he looked at Black's uniform, fell to his knees and gave up. After putting him in his police car, the young officer asked why he had surrendered.
"I ain't fighting the devil," the man said. The suspect had caught a glimpse of Black's badge number. It was 666.
Black, now 41 and a 20-year veteran of the force, is in the unusual fraternity of police officers who have worn the mark of the beast on their uniforms — the number in the biblical book of Revelations that signifies the ultimate evil.

AnandTech: Apple's New iPod - Evolutionary, not Revolutionary
AnandTech has posted a long (15 webpages) and comprehensive review of the iPod. MusicMatch, XPlay and iTunes 4 as well as taking the iPod apart are covered in the review.
"With the original iPod, Apple had a clear winner on their hands with a revolutionary new approach to portable MP3 players. The new iPod, albeit only an evolutionary improvement over the old unit, continues to extend Apple's dominance in this sector.
For current iPod owners, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to upgrade to the new iPod, although the small size of the player is definitely tempting. The functionality of the player remains virtually unchanged, which means you'll still probably want to hold on to your expensive investment."

Husband had a Hemmoragic Stroke/Brain Bleed

Re: Husband had a Hemmoragic Stroke/Brain Bleed
Dear Nana
I am so sorry to hear about your husband. But it sounds like his stroke was mild and he will recover. The symptoms of the sleep disturbance and sleeping during the day, in my opinion it is very normal for what he has gone through. Stroke recovery one thing I noticed was the exhaustion. Everyone I have talked to on this board seemed to have the same symptoms. The brain swells after the stroke and it takes time for the swelling to go down. Not to mention the heart attack. Those were two major attackes on his body so its not surprising his sleep is disturbed. It should get better with time.
Being a caregiver can be a tough job. Especially when you are trying to care for your health. Coming to this stroke board is a good thing and you will find many answers here. There is a vast amount of information here. Please let us know how you are doing.
God Bless Mulchie

Video Premiere: Gucci Mane's 'Remember When'
Gucci Mane is sharing screen with Ray J in a music video filmed to support his latest track "Remember When". It follows the rapper and his girlfriend as their relationship gets tense when she finds out a message from an unknown girl.
Gucci includes "Remember When" in his third studio album "The Appeal: Georgia's Most Wanted". Beside collaborating with Ray J in that song, he also lines up Swizz Beatz, Nicki Minaj, Pharrell Williams, Estelle, Wyclef Jean and Bun B in other tracks.
With those many stars backing him as featured guests, the album made a notable debut at No. 4 on Billboard Hot 200. However, it sold only around 60,000 copies in its opening week, less than its predecessor "The State vs. Radric Davis" which opened in 2009 at No. 10 with 89,000.

Hazardous Waste:
Selected Aspects of Cleanup Plan for Rocky Mountain Arsenal
NSIAD-86-205BR: Published: Aug 29, 1986. Publicly Released: Sep 17, 1986.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
In response to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the cost and economic assumptions in the Army's June 1986 draft plan to accelerate the cleanup of an arsenal near Denver, Colorado.
GAO found that the Army: (1) provided well-documented cost and economic assumptions for the types of cleanup activities considered; (2) used the Office of Management and Budget's inflation rate to project total cleanup costs; (3) reasonably assumed that there will be sufficient labor for the scheduled cleanup activities; (4) has not identified the volume of contaminated material and the methods of treatment and disposal; and (5) has not adequately projected the cost of cleaning up the arsenal. GAO noted that: (1) the Army is studying options for cleaning up the site and a cost-effective alternative that meets cleanup goals and protects public health and the environment; and (2) current cost estimates for cleaning up the arsenal are preliminary.
