Edward Theatre, Mumbai - India
3 cheers to all these movie theaters who have screened many a movies and entertained Mumbaites from past so many decades.
Long live these theaters and the entertainment business.
Once upon a Screen: EDWARD THEATRE (Estd. 1918) Still standing tall A PASTEL-BLUE building building with a distinctly colonial entrance, Edward Theater is a bit of a misfit in the jumble of commercial buildings that make Kalbadevi Road. And the collection of slightly dubious characters hanging around outside the theater adds to the incongruity. But it wasn't always like this. The Edward was once a respected cinema house, frequented by the European upper classes of the Fort area.
"Gandhiji even gave a speech here once," says Sanjay Vasawa, the theater's manager. Unfortunately Edward doesn't have enough documentation to make the city's heritage list – it was first mentioned in a land survey only in 1918, although the management has a land deed dating back to 1844, when the plot was purchased by a certain Bahadurji Jamshedji. "We will make the list only in 2018," says Vasawa.
Once you get past the slight sordidness of the theater, you realize that Edward is a little known gem in Mumbai's theater scene, if only for its sheer height. Its upper balcony area - situated at a mind-boggling four-storey height - is off-limits to women because "they get dizzy when they try watching the movie from that height."
According to Vasawa, there are no plans to sell the theater. "The owners, the Poonawala family are willing to keep it going even if it , doesn't make a profit, out of respect to its heritage," he says.

Captain Beefheart is widely recognized as one of the most innovative musicians of the rock era - his album ^Trout Mask Replica is considered a classic by most rock critics. When he finished his recording career in 1982, he assumed his given name Don Van Vliet and proceeded to live a very quiet life full of painting. Some YoYo Stuff documents what this interesting artist has been doing since his more high-profile days. Vliet talks a little about himself and offers his opinions on a variety of topic. Music video director and award winning celebrity photographer Anton Corbjin directed this short film. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

That is very interesting because the story stated you were pregnant
with your first child and there is no mention of any injuries to the other child or the father of your baby. Some things just don't add up...
(She says, "The only part I remember is me rolling around saying I couldn't breathe." At the time, the 21-year-old was seven months pregnant with her first child.)
United States
#46 Jan 1, 2010
Whoa!!! You're scary!!!
United States
#47 Jan 1, 2010
Yep, she COULD have still lost the baby, but it would have greatly reduced that possibilty. We will never know now will we?
United States
#48 Jan 1, 2010
well it sounds like many kind oklahomans were will ing to help this family..the mothers post is now 22 hours old.. hopefully they are at home now where there hearts can heal...there is no pain greater than the loss of a precious baby
#49 Jan 1, 2010
Well your answer is he received 4 scratches and the father was not hurt!! dOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION!!!
#50 Jan 1, 2010
We are still at the Ronald McDonald house awaiting my car to be fixed. We are very touched by the support that we have been given. We are Blessed that God has let us see another year. God Bless you all and your families. Linda
#51 Jan 1, 2010
i too am sorry for your loss...what shop has the car..maybei canm ake some calls and see whats up if help hasnt already been given?
#52 Jan 1, 2010
I am so sorry for what all your family has been through. I will keep you in my prayers.
I just know things will turn around for you soon.
#53 Jan 1, 2010
WE ARE OKLAHOMANS! We are the best people in the World, the most giving. SURE she was stupid for not wearing a seatbelt, but only get on to her when YOU have done nothing stupid yourself in your life. She lost her baby, guys. I will also look for a place to donate. I lost my job in October and am trying to scrape together money, but 2010 is going to be a better year for all of use, let's send them back home where they want to be.
#54 Jan 1, 2010
Linda please know that the lol's are the few and we are the masses wishing you a safe and speedy recovery. Find a way to make your loss a positive for someone else. That way your child/grandchild will not have passed in vain. Had you named your baby/ It would be nice to have his name to say when I pray for you and your family.
#55 Jan 1, 2010
amen to that
#56 Jan 1, 2010
His name is James
#57 Jan 1, 2010
May your family be blessed throughout this new year!
#58 Jan 1, 2010
If someone can put me in touch with these two ladies my husband and myself will drive them home we dont have any money to give but we do have a vehichle to take them home.
United States
#59 Jan 2, 2010
Unfortunately a child's life was lost during this tragedy. That is horrible, and I offer many prayers. But I also have a few "Doubts" concerning the story and just giving money out. Especially in today's society and everyone being in need. Would it not be just as easy to contact the mechanic her automobile is at and pay for the repairs or see if the mechanic shop would accept less? Where is the rest of the family? Aunts, uncles, grandparents, siblings? How did the father make it back to Topeka? The story did say she was pregnant with her first child and nothing about the father being in the automobile, but yet she states her and the father were taking their first trip together? She unbuckles her seat belt to put her other child back in their seat belt. How did the two stories become so different? Why not take a bus or coach flight back home and prepare for your child's funeral before worrying about the vehicle? It can wait a week or two. Only one of you need to come back for the vehicle? My child's death would be the foremost important thing. The auto would be the last thing on my mind! I believe in helping, and doing what I can but I believe maybe News 4 should have handled the donations or designated a trustee such as a "church" or official as they do in other situations such as this.

Thank You AnonymousOK, I too have had the same questions and the woman who was in the accident became annoyed it seems when questioned. The story does not add up for me.
United States
#61 Jan 2, 2010
There but for the Grace of God goes all of us.....I'm sure we can come up with some stuff to help. Can't we???
#62 Jan 2, 2010
I am able to donate a little but have to do it in person (so it will be Monday) since I have to have an account number to do it on the phone. It seems that some other people would be willing to donate money and/or time to you if you could tell us where your car is getting fixed at and if it can't be fixed soon, would you be comfortable with getting a drive back to your home town from one of these readers? Please reply back and let us know. My heart and prayers go out to you!
#63 Jan 2, 2010
This is so sad there should be someone in this world with enough money to help these people not just get home but to bury this precious baby and help them recover as much as could be possible. This isn't the economy this is the whole country everybody is caught up in themselves too much to care about anybody else and when they do some kind of "charity" work it all comes down to tax's or making themselves feel better. It's no longer for the right reasons. some people have lost the ability to care, some have lost hope and all have lost compassion for there fellow man/woman unless there is something to be gained by it.

Kenny Makes Surprise Opry Appearance
Kenny Chesney surprised the crowd at the Grand Ole Opry Friday night, April 4, when he made a surprise appearance in support of band member Tim Hensley.
Tim, who plays guitar in Kenny's band, has just released his own bluegrass album, Long Monday, co-produced by Kenny. He was making his solo Opry debut. Kenny and Tim performed "Workin' on a Building" from Tim's CD. This wasn't Kenny's first time to pull an Opry surprise––in 2004, he joined his friend Uncle Kracker on the famous stage.

Conversational technologies such as email, chat rooms, and blogs have made the transition from novel communication technologies to powerful tools for learning. Currently virtual worlds are undergoing the same transition. We argue that the next wave of innovation is at the level of the computer interface, and that mixed-reality environments offer important advantages over prior technologies. Thus, mixed reality is positioned to have a broad impact on the future of K-12 collaborative learning. We propose three design imperatives that arise from our ongoing work in this area grounded in research from the learning sciences and human-computer interaction. By way of example, we present one such platform, the Situated Multimedia Arts Learning Lab [SMALLab]. SMALLab is a mixed-reality environment that affords face-to-face interaction by colocated participants within a mediated space. We present a recent design experiment that involved the development of a new SMALLab learning scenario and a collaborative student participation framework for a 3-day intervention for 72 high school earth science students. We analyzed student and teacher exchanges from classroom sessions both during the intervention and during regular classroom instruction and found significant increases in the number of student-driven exchanges within SMALLab. We also found that students made significant achievement gains. We conclude that mixed reality can have a positive impact on collaborative learning and that it is poised for broad dissemination into mainstream K-12 contexts.

This invention generally relates to an improved battery separator material for use in nickel-cadmium and other metal hydride batteries and a method of manufacturing such a separator material. In particular, the invention relates to a highly porous and highly elastic laminated structure made of fibrous material, such as nylon, which is useful as separator material. The laminated construction in accordance with the invention is a nonwoven web of nylon staple fibers sandwiched between and thermal bonded to a pair of sheets of nylon spun-bonded fabric.
Nickel cadmium batteries generally consist of a wound anode interleaved with a wound cathode, the wound anode and cathode being spaced apart at regular intervals in an electrolyte. The interval between the anode and cathode may be as small as 0.05 mm. Although it is desirable to place the cathode and anode close together to increase the load capacity of the battery, the electrodes must not touch to avoid producing a short circuit. To accomplish this end, separators made of suitable material are arranged between the anode and cathode to keep them apart. The separator material must be inert to the electrolyte and to the reactions occurring at the surfaces of the electrodes.
In addition, the separator material should be sufficiently elastic to conform to the shape of the electrode surfaces. Also the separator material should be sufficiently porous to allow unimpeded migration of ions between the electrodes, yet be able to filter out solid particles which separate from the electrodes and attempt to pass through the separator. The separator material further must be wettable by the liquid electrolyte to prevent the establishment of dry areas on the separator fabric. Finally, the separator should have the capacity to adsorb and store the liquid electrolyte.
Separator material made from woven fabric is disadvantageous because fabric stores insufficient quantities of the liquid electrolyte. Furthermore, because pores formed between the warp and weft of the fabric are large, solid particles which dislodge from the electrodes can pass through the fabric. Such particles accrete until a bridge is formed between an anode and cathode, giving rise to a short-circuit in the battery.
It is known in the prior art that the foregoing disadvantages can be overcome by providing a battery separator material made from nonwoven nylon fabric. U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013 to Fahrbach discloses a separator material for batteries comprising a highly porous and highly elastic structurally modified nonwoven fibrous material consisting of either nylon 6 (i.e., polycaprolactum) fibers or nylon 6-6 (i.e., polyamide) fibers or both. The separator material is manufactured by impregnating the fibrous material with a solvent consisting of a low-percentage aqueous salt solution to effect preliminary dissolution of the surface portions of nylon fibers. The impregnated nonwoven material is then squeezed under light pressure to remove excess salt solution therefrom and to initially strengthen the nonwoven material by fusing the fibers to each other at their superficially dissolved surface portions. Then the nonwoven material is dried and finally strengthened by heating.
In accordance with one preferred embodiment disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013, the nonwoven material consists of randomly oriented nylon 6 textile fibers having a staple length of 30 to 80 mm. In accordance with another embodiment disclosed in that patent, the nonwoven material consists of randomly oriented nylon 6-6 textile fibers having a staple length of 30 to 60 mm. In addition, U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013 discloses that the nonwoven material may be spun-bonded fabric consisting of "endless" (i.e., having a median fiber length of about 100 mm) nylon 6 and/or nylon 6-6 filaments. When the endless fibers are bonded at their points of contact, a nonwoven material is obtained having a stable structure of high strength, porosity and elasticity.
According to U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013, the spun-bonded nonwoven separator material disclosed therein exhibits good resistance to liquid electrolytes and to electrochemical oxidation, possesses good wettability upon contact with electrolytes and good filtration capacity for solid particles present in the electrolyte, has the capacity to adsorb and store electrolyte liquids, and is suitable for use in an alkaline battery.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013 further states that the nonwoven separator material disclosed therein could be prepared by superimposing multiple individual thinner webs of intermingled fibers or by making a thicker single-layer web. Individual nonwoven webs may be prepared by carding using conventional carding rolls. If carded webs are to be used, multiple thin webs are superimposed at an angle with respect to the principal direction of fibers in individual webs, thereby obtaining a multitude of crossing points for the fibers.
While U.S. Pat. No. 3,344,013 recognized the advantages of making battery separator material from nonwoven nylon fiber and disclosed that the battery separator material could comprise a plurality of webs laminated together, it nowhere recognized the advantages achievable by laminating webs of different fiber composition. Moreover, this patent failed to recognize that nylon 6 is more strongly affected by strong alkaline solutions such as potassium hydroxide than is nylon 6-6. The result of this stronger interaction is that nylon 6-6 resists decomposition in KOH solution better than nylon 6 does.
An object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of the prior art nonwoven battery separator material made of nylon fibers. In particular, it is an object of the present invention to provide a nylon nonwoven battery separator material which has lower nylon 6 content than conventional battery separator material and therefore better resists decomposition in KOH solution.
Another object of the invention is to provide a highly porous and highly elastic laminated structure made of nonwoven nylon fibrous material which has increased strength and is useful as separator material. In particular, the strength of the material in accordance with the invention is enhanced in the cross direction, thereby facilitating winding up of the fabric on a winder.
A further object of the invention is to provide a nylon nonwoven battery separator material of laminated construction which can be manufactured easily and inexpensively. In particular, the nylon nonwoven battery separator material of laminated construction in accordance with the invention incorporates commercially available sheets of spun-bonded nylon fiber, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing the amount of capital investment required to set up a production line.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a nylon nonwoven battery separator material of laminated construction in which one layer has a property which is enhanced and another layer of different fiber composition has a different property enhanced. The result is a battery separator material having both enhanced properties. For example, one layer provides an enhanced filtering capacity while another layer provides enhanced strength.
A further object of the invention is provide a battery separator material of laminated construction in which the enhanced properties are balanced. This is accomplished by sandwiching a layer with one enhanced property between two identical layers having a different enhanced property.
In the present invention, these objects, as well as other objects which will be apparent from the detailed description which follows, are achieved generally by laminating a nonwoven web of nylon 6 and nylon 6-6 staple fibers between a pair of nonwoven webs of spun-bonded nylon 6-6 fibers by thermal bonding.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment of the invention, the amount of nylon 6 in the nylon staple web may be in the range of 5-60 wt. % with the remainder being nylon 6-6 fibers. In accordance with another embodiment, bicomponent fibers having a nylon 6 sheath and a nylon 6-6 core could be without nylon 6 fibers. The amount of bicomponent fibers in the nylon staple web may be in the range of 10-100 wt. % with the remainder being nylon 6-6 fibers. In addition, any combination of nylon 6, nylon 6-6 and bicomponent fibers can be used provided that the final proportion of nylon 6 material in the staple web lies in the range of 5-60 wt. %.
Moreover, the composition of the staple web need not consist of 100% nylon fibers and may include polypropylene fibers in addition to the nylon. Other fibers such as polyester may be combined with the nylon fibers to obtain slightly different properties.
The spun-bonded webs, on the other hand, may be any one of a number of commercially available fabrics made entirely from spun-bonded nylon 6-6 fibers.
In accordance with the method of manufacture of the invention, the nylon staple web may be formed by superimposing three to eight carded layers of staple fibers on a conveyor. At the same time two spun-bonded nylon webs or sheets are unwound from rolls. The three webs are then fed together to calendar rolls with the staple web sandwiched between the spun-bonded webs. The nip loadings and calendar roll temperatures adjusted to achieve softening of the nylon 6 material as the sandwiched webs are calendared. Upon cooling of the laminate, the softened nylon 6 material re-solidifies and bonds to nylon 6-6 fibers in contact therewith, thereby bonding both spun-bonded sheets to the staple web.
Other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent when the detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the invention is considered in conjunction with the drawing.
The preferred embodiments of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawing, which is a diagrammatic view showing the calendaring process by which a nylon staple web is sandwiched between two spun-bonded nylon webs to form a laminated construction.
Referring to the drawing, the nonwoven staple web 10 in accordance with the invention is manufactured via a conventional carding process. The number of cards used will vary depending on the desired thickness of the nylon staple web. In accordance with the invention, the nonwoven staple web comprises three to eight layers of staple fibers, necessitating the use of an equal number of cards. The cards are lined up in succession over a conveyor 12. Each card deposits a layer onto the conveyor. The superimposed layers form nonwoven staple web 10.
In accordance with the preferred embodiments of the invention, the nonwoven staple web 10 consists of 100% nylon fibers. The fiber composition of the staple web may include 5-60 wt. % nylon 6 staple fibers with the remainder being nylon 6-6 staple fibers. In accordance with one preferred embodiment, the ratio of nylon 6 to nylon 6-6 is 30:70. The nylon 6 and nylon 6-6 staple fibers can have a length of 3/4 to 2 inches, with a length of 11/4 to 11/8 inches preferred. The nylon 6 staple fibers have a preferred fineness of about 1.0 denier or less, while the nylon 6-6 staple fibers have a preferred fineness of 0.5 to 1.2 denier.
As a result of the preferred fiber composition, the nylon staple web, when incorporated in the laminated battery separator material of the invention, constitutes a low-denier barrier which performs a filtration function by trapping solid particles which dislodge from the battery electrodes.
The spun-bonded webs may be any one of a number of fabrics commercially available under the trade name "Cerex". The fiber composition of Cerex fabrics is entirely nylon 6-6. The spun-bonded nylon 6-6 fibers have a fineness of 3.0-3.5 denier and are continuous. Cerex fabrics are commercially available from Fiberweb N.A., Inc. located in Charlotte, N.C.
Cerex fabrics resist attack by alkaline solutions such as those used in batteries. They have a melting point of approximately 500� F. and are dimensionally stable up to 400� F. Cerex fabrics can be processed at temperatures as high as 425� F. for limited periods of time.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment, Cerex fabric Type 23 is used. This fabric has a weight of 0.5 oz./yd2 and an average thickness of 3.2 mils. Cerex Type 23 fabric is available on rolls.
Cerex Type 23 fabric has a high grab strength, i.e., 16 lbs. in the machine direction and 9 lbs. in the transverse direction as measured by ASTM D-1682-64. This high grab strength means that the laminate will better maintain its integrity during handling and positioning of the separator material inside the battery, whether it is gripped mechanically or by hand.
Other properties of Cerex Type 23 fabric include the following: tear strength--6.4 lbs. in the machine direction and 4.3 lbs. in the transverse direction as measured by ASTM D-1117-80; Mullen burst strength--15 psi as measured by ASTM D-3786-802; and air permeability--950 CFM/ft2 as measured by ASTM D-737-75.
Alternative types of fabric which can be used include Types PBN II, 29 and 31. All of these are spun-bonded nylon 6-6 fabrics commercially available from Fiberweb N.A., Inc. PBN II is a point-bonded fabric; Type 29 is loosely bonded; and Type 31 uses trilobal nylon 6-6 fibers.
In accordance with the method of manufacture of the invention, the nylon staple web 10 and two nylon spun-bonded webs 14 and 16 are laminated by thermal bonding in a stack of heated calendar rolls 22, 24, 26, 28. The nylon spun-bonded webs 14 and 16 are unwound from rolls 18 and 20 respectively and threaded through the nips 30, 32 and 34 formed between the calendar rolls.
After the nylon staple web 10 is formed on the conveyor 12, it is deposited onto nylon spun-bonded web 16. webs 12 and 16 are then carried to nip 30 between calendar rolls 22 and 24 by rotation of calendar roll 22 in the direction indicated by arrow A. At an angular position on calendar roll 22 which is clockwise relative to nip 30 as seen in the drawing, the nylon spun-bonded web 14 is laid against the other side of staple web 10, whereby web 10 is sandwiched between spun-bonded webs 14 and 16.
Calendar rolls 22 and 24 are heated to a temperature in the range of 350� F. to 420� F., preferably 370� F.; calendar rolls 26 and 28 are heated to a temperature in the range of 370� F. to 430� F., preferably 415� F. As calendar rolls 22, 24, 26, and 28 respectively rotate in the directions indicated by arrows A, B, C and D, the web laminate is heated. As the web laminate travels through nips 30, 32 and 34 in succession, the webs are subjected to pressure to achieve nip loadings of under 800 pli. The loadings can be varied in dependence on the temperature of the calendar rolls, i.e., the loading may decrease as the temperature is increased. The calendar roll temperatures and nip loadings are selected to ensure that the nylon 6 fibers reach a temperature at which bonding can occur. This temperature need not be in excess of the melting temperature of nylon 6 i.e., 400� F., since nylon 6 gets tacky and plastic at temperatures below 400� F.
As a result of the application of heat and pressure in the stack of calendar rolls, the nylon staple web 10 is heated to a temperature above the softening point of nylon 6 but below the melting point of nylon 6-6 which is about 500� F. After the laminate 36 leaves calendar roll 28, it is brought into contact with chill roll 38, which rapidly reduces the temperature of the heated and compressed laminate. As the softened nylon 6 fibers re-solidify during cooling, the re-solidified nylon 6 material bonds with spun-bonded nylon 6-6 fibers in the spun-bonded webs 14 and 16 as well as with the nylon 6-6 staple fibers in staple web 10. As a result of this thermal bonding, the three webs are joined together to form the laminated battery separator material of the invention.
Various prototypes of the battery separator fabric of the invention were manufactured and tested. Using the same Cerex fabric, the weight of the laminated separator material can be adjusted by varying the number of layers of staple fiber making up the staple web. The prototype separators had fabric weights in the range of 50 to 90 gm/m2. The thickness of the laminated separator material can be adjusted by varying the nip loadings. The prototype separators had thicknesses in the range of 0.16 to 0.25 mm.
The battery separator fabric absorbed an amount of potassium hydroxide electrolyte equal to 250 to 500% of the dry weight of the fabric. Other properties of the prototype separator materials include the following: average fiber diameter--12.9-14.6 microns; void fraction--67-70%; Frazier permeability--18-59 m/min; strength--116-210 N/50 mm (MD) and 37-68 N/50 mm (CD yield strength (MD)--56-119 N/50 mm; and yield strain (MD)--3.3-5%.
Although the invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, it will be appreciated that it would be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the arts of fiber technology and the manufacture of battery separators that fibers other than nylon, e.g., polypropylene, could be added to the fiber composition without departing from the scope of the invention. All such variations and modifications are intended to be within the scope and spirit of the invention as defined in the claims appended hereto.

For Sale: Shelti Pro Foos II table, 9.5/10 condition (self.Charlottesville)
submitted 3 years ago * by LeTigreLeTigre
Hey Cvillains,
I've got a Shelti Pro Foos II foosball table I'm looking to sell. It's in beautiful condition - barely used, probably a 9.5/10. This is a very high end foosball table and I'd love to send it to a good home. Depending where you look, this same table goes for between $1200 and $1700 new (reference 1, 2, 3). With the table you also get a replacement/maintenance kit, assembly manual (just in case) and a foosball rules sheet.
Asking for $800 or best offer. We're in Keswick. Buyer must come pick up the table (no deliveries.) We'll help you move it to your truck/trailer, though. Cash only.
Album of pictures.
If anyone has any questions, please ask or PM me. Thanks!
there doesn't seem to be anything here

This will probably render differently across various OS/browsers – depends on unicode support and it's rendering. As far as I tested it works and renders nicely in latest Opera and Chrome (both Linux and Windows) – Firefox cuts part of smiley since it renders it bigger.

Recently I stumbled upon a weird, but interesting Youtube video comment.
I decided to take a look at what characters may compose such a pattern, so I put up a tiny script to process the string, output unique characters and generate new random patterns with them.
Few interesting patterns that triggered some references for me (Opera on Windows 7):
The ceiling vines example is the most interesting since it concatenates the Combining Diacritical Marks directly without space and makes the pattern organic in a way. I've tried to run the same sample on Ubuntu Chrome, but it seems like it does not support rendering of concatenated marks, however Ubuntu Firefox does it well. The rendering is very inconsistent across OS/browsers.
