upon returning to austin we contacted the apt. manager to see if there was an apt. available since we were familiar with the area and knew the staff. there was an apt but we would have to stay in the guest suite until the renovation for the apt. was complete...(week to week and 1/2) we agreed to accept the apt. however, shortly after moving into the guest suite my boyfriend received a job as an apt. manager with a great company. great news huh? so we thought! the management staff and leasing staff made it very clear their distaste in him all of a sudden and it wasnt long that he was told he could not occupy an apt. in the community any longer but i could. so we were to be separate. we agreed to try to make it work, him finding his own place while i rented at the cottages. i was asked to sign a lease the day the apt. was ready in which i did. i then was told that this was under the stipulation that my boyfriend was not allowed to occupy the apt. at anytime. i agreed however puzzled why there were so insistant on this....i later find out its because he was making more money in his new position that both of the people now currently employed there.
still, was willing to let it all go and try to avoid the office staff. the first red flag i recieved was when i signed the lease i was denied a copy of it.....few days later still denied a copy....they stated it wasnt effective yet...shock to me! i had allready moved in!!! so i had no paperwork proving it was my residence or anything to back it up!!! SCARY!!! a few days after moving in i met my boyfriend at a nearby restuarant, after dinner he wanted to stop by and see my puppy...wouldnt ya know it i was told the next day by their leasing staff that i would more than likely be evicted because my boyfriend had been seen on the property at 10pm the night before...WOW!!! he neither left the company in a bad reference nor did he perform any illegal act or violate any laws!!! but less than one week i was facing being put out due to a PERSONAL dislike!!! WOW!!! if that isnt a red flag for a bad company i dont know what is!!! very upset i immediately called my boyfriend and told him the situation, he wanted me out of that apt. feeling it was unsafe and unstable!!! boy was he right!!! i was willing to break the lease and deal with the legal consequences to have the peace of mind over this petty drama!
i later moved out the next week. we are very happy now and have relocated. several weeks have went by and we recently ran into the manager and leasing agent at an apt. trade show...(all apt managers and leasing consultants network and meet with material vendors for apt. comm. to recieve business) we did not interact with them and kept our peace....however, the week stay in the guest suite should have been billed to my accnt. of monies owed to the company...however it wasnt. the manager was forced to pay it or loose her job for an unauthorized stay....i had no idea since none of this appeared on my final bill from the company. the apt manager then proceeds to send her husband over to me in front of clients,staff and the likes to begin personal threats on my life in front of everyone!!! shocked because i have never met the man and neither has he met me...i quickly called my boyfriend over where he tried to remedy the situation. they refused to accept a peacable offer and the personal threats continued!!! we were both shocked by the ghetto fabulous way they were representing their company (small and very run down) and even worse, approaching a former resident.
this event prompted us to call the company the next morning. the "owner" of the company stated it was strickly personal and they have no say so in their apt. manager,leasing agents and staffs behavior outside the office!!! WOW!!! however, we were not suprised since the company is extremely small and does not hold much professionalism to their name. had this been any other company, the apt. manager would have been terminated immediately for outrageous and threating behavior towards a former resident. no questions asked!!!
SO BOTTOM LINE, this company does not opperate under professionalism,respect or decency. i would definately beware of this company....several times in the clubroom you would over hear their leasing agent make grotesque comments towards residents,threaten eviction of residents simply for their personality!!! MAJOR RED FLAG!!! we are not done however, will are in the process of contacting housing authorities concerning this matter... bottom line, this should have never happened to a former resident!!! and for that fact, such a ghetto run down property should not have been attending a respectable function for respectable apt. managers and staff. me and my boyfriend are currently in a GREAT company and very happy!!! so this is to warn anyone seeking a property with mosiac residential.....you will not be protected and will have to fight like crazy to prove their illegal practices and discrimination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New catamaran - sailing comfortably at 20 knots
by Kate Elkington/Sail-World Cruising on 8 Mar 2013
Catana 42 - sailing downwind comfortably at 20 knots, upwind at 12 knots. Now THAT's how to avoid a weather system! .. .
How would you like to cross oceans, under sail, in comfort, and at around 20 knots? There's a new catamaran being introduced to the market in Australia which can do just that, but to see it first you'll have to make your way to Queensland's Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.
Yes, after astonishing Europeans with her remarkably fast sea trials, the Catana 42 is set to impress Australian multihull enthusiasts at the 2013 Sanctuary Cove Boat Show from 23-26 May.
Multihull Solutions will be displaying the new demonstrator model that will be fully optioned and ready to turn heads with her contemporary steel grey exterior.
The Catana 42 demo includes performance hydranet sails, bowsprit with gennaker, carbon bimini, textile lifelines, solar panels, Garmin electronic pack, LED lights, and Alcantara interior.
The Catana 42 recorded nearly 22 knots during recent European sea trials, and the fiery catamaran is demanding attention from buyers, media and industry experts alike with its ability to harness the slightest gust and deliver fast and outstanding offshore performances.
How come she is so fast? The Catana 42 sails at incredible speeds due to the comprehensive range of technical innovations. The catamaran's unique beam/length ratio, adjustable daggerboards, tilted and tulip-shaped bows, aerodynamic coach-roof and torpedo-shaped hulls make the Catana 42 a revolution in the marine industry.
At the cutting edge of recreational boatbuilding, the carbon infusion process ensures that she is an incredibly high-performance, light and resistant boat,. At 20 knots before the wind, and 12 knots into the wind, the Catana 42 offers its crew an unrivalled level of comfort and safety for a boat of this size.
Inside she's good too. Like all catamarans, the Catana 42 has an ambient and spacious interior, and she also has 360° panoramic views from big windows. With direct access to the cockpit, its saloon is the hub of the boat and is equipped wit plenty of storage space. The light-filled cabins, excellent ventilation, contemporary interior design, thermal and audio insulation, all come together well.
Multihull Solutions is the exclusive importer and distributor of Catana in Australia and New Zealand. Further information or inspections of the Catana 42 at the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show can be arranged by emailing email@example.com, contacting 1300 855 338, or visiting the website at www.multihullsolutions.com.au.

Yup. This news is a good reason for the recent 0.55 pop.
There's no news dude.This is just a company fluff peice that will lead to a flop after the pop.Who do you think will be tricked (other than day traders) by an article with the highligted quote being from 2004! Eight, count them all, 8 years ago a Navy guy said " The Navy is pleased to see a technology that addresses a Departmentof Defense need also have suchtremendous commercial potential." A couple a points, first if there really was tremendous commercial potential, what has happened in the last eight years. Back then OPTT was actually selling the Navy small bouys to power security devices. But that ended in failure about 2008 and while the Navy continued funding research those research grants have expired and have not been renewed. And what of the Hawaii PowerBuoy project? It's over. It's expired without renewal.Secondly, when a company reaches back eight years for a quote, that is an admission that in the intervening eight years, its been all down hill. Which is why I consider OPTT a failure in progress.So after the pop will come the flop.

There are many instances in which it is desirous to have a sustained rate of release of a fluid such as ink, moistening fluids, adhesives and the like over an extended period and a large number of cycles. Examples of materials where such sustained rates of release are desirable include ink pads and ink rollers in inking systems. Examples of the use of ink pads are pads that are applied to print elements in order to transfer ink therefrom onto sheets made of paper, plastic, film and the like. Ink pads are used in devices such as postage meters whereby a postage indicia can be printed upon an envelope by contacting an ink laden pad with a print element having dies made of a metal, alloy, rubber, photopolymer, and the like and impacting the latter upon an envelope. Another form of an ink releasing mechanism is a roller. Examples where ink rollers are used are in labellers for price marking and postage meters. The ink roller serves as a source of ink for the labeller and postage meter, and the ink is transferred by appropriate mechanisms to a ticket, tag or label in the case of labellers and to a print element in the case of a postage meter as discussed previously.
Having a uniform, constant rate of release of ink has been a goal in the production of such devices for a long time. Obviously, the ideal situation is where the first ink impression and the last ink impression are of the same ink density. Clearly, this is an unlikely achievement in depleting devices. Nevertheless, it would be advantageous having the first and last inking impressions as close to one another as possible in terms of ink density. Ink density is clearly related to the amount of ink transferred. The amount of ink transferred is related to the rate of release from the roller or the pad. More specifically, this rate should be close to a constant or the change in the rate should be small. Further, because of a predetermined constant bulk volume dictated by the printing mechanism, prior ink rollers and pads provided a limited number of print cycles with a pay off of 15-25% of the total volume of ink impregnated in the foam.
Inks that are ideal for sustained release should have all the active ingredients (solvents, toners, dyes, etc.) moving as a homogenous phase. Currently, a constraint in ink making is the matter of toxicity since consideration must be given towards environmental factors. This is also true of inks that are used with dispensing pads and rollers. In the past, many inks have been used, as for example with rubber stamps, that have been found to have undesirably high toxic levels, but presently, wide spread efforts are underway to produce inks with solvents that are low in toxicity. For some applications the ink should also be non-volatile, and have low vapor pressure. In addition, the inks should also be non-destructive to the pads, rollers, print elements and other materials with which they come in contact.
There are certain inks that have coloring materials such as dyes and toners that are visually detectable and others with both coloring materials and fluorescent materials as well. In such systems, both the coloring materials and fluorescent materials should be dispensed slowly by the inking mechanism and at the same rate over a long term. An example of where inking and fluorescent materials are used in an inking pad or roller is the postage meter. A postage meter either will have an inking roller as is common in a drum-type postage meter and flat bed meters, or it can have a pad in a flat bed type postage meter.
A factor that works against sustained rates of release are the mechanisms in which they are used. In postage meters using rollers, for example, the mechanism involves constant engagement of the roller with the print element and such engagements cause non-uniform stress field across the rollers. The stress field applied on a roller is non-uniform and time dependent due to the foam/ink intrinsic properties. This stress is also dependent on the viscoelastic properties of the polymer, porosity and pore size of the foam and the amount of the ink available. As the ink depletes and the polymer is mechanically deformed simultaneously, the rate of ink release decreases.
The ink dispensing devices of the instant invention are made of multiple components selected on the basis of their chemical affinity for the ink. Fluid release, and mechanical properties such as transport and transfer are controlled by the chemical affinity. It has been found that a combination of an ink storage layer and an ink metering layer made of distinct materials has resulted in pads and rollers that have solved the problems enumerated previously in a surprisingly effective manner and has resulted in sustained ink release over an extended period. Of course, what is meant by sustained ink release is a relatively uniform rate of dispensing ink by the inking mechanism over a given period. In the case of rollers, the internal layer, or core, and in the case of pads, the inner layer, acts as an ink reservoir while the outside layer, meters the ink in a uniform manner so that there is a relatively constant release of ink over a long period and a large number of cycles. The internal core can be an elastic foam with large pore size, in the range of 80μ to 1000μ, porosity of greater than 70% and impregnated or plasticized with ink. The outer or metering layer is a porous sleeve with smaller pores, less than 30μ open pore size and a lower porosity, 40% to 85%. The rollers of the instant invention also provide a much higher number of print cycles, 15,000 cycles vs. 4000 cycles for the same bulk dimensions with superior print quality.
FIG. 1 is a cross sectional view of an ink pad made in accordance with the instant invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view of an ink roller made in accordance with the instant invention; and
FIGS. 3 through 7 show graphs comparing the performance of prior art rollers against rollers made in accordance with the instant invention.
There are certain inking mechanisms wherein ink is held by a first member and is dispensed gradually by contact with a second member such as a print element or printhead. This is in contrast to other types of inking mechanism wherein a sump of ink is available, and ink is dispensed as needed to a pad or roller. In the former type of device, one of the problems has been to have the ink stored in the initial member released gradually so that inking impressions can be relatively uniform throughout the life of such inking mechanism. The solution to this problem in accordance with the instant invention involves the use of composites selected on the basis of their permeability, transfer, transport and mechanical properties.
With reference to FIG. 1, wherein a pad 12 is shown, and FIG. 2, wherein a roller is shown, a first, or inner member 16 of the mechanism is made of an elastic foam with large interconnected pores 18 (open cell foams), the pore size being in the range of 80μ to 1000μ and a porosity greater than 70%. This inner layer 16 will act as a reservoir for ink with which it is to be impregnated. A second layer 20 is made of chemically inert material and serves as a metering layer which has small pores 22, less than 30μ.
With specific reference to FIG. 1, the first and second layers 16,20 are received within a frame 24 that is secured to a driving mechanism (not shown) for reciprocal movement, as indicated by the arrow, whereby the outer layer 20 can be brought into contact with the fonts 26 of a print head 28 and disengaged therefrom. The print head 28, would then be engaged by a sheet for printing thereon in any convenient manner. With reference to FIG. 2, the invention is illustrated as incorporated in a roller 14. A rotatable shaft 30 supports a foam material composite having an inner layer 16 having larger pores 18, again, in the range of 80μ to 1000μ, and a porosity greater than 50% and an outer layer 20 having smaller pores 22 of a size less than 30μ. The roller 14 is moved reciprocally, as inducted by the arrow, by a mechanism (not shown) so as to be contactingly driven across the fonts 26 of a printing element 28. As the roller 14 contacts the fonts 26, it dispenses ink thereon that can later be applied to a sheet. The ratio of the thickness of the first layer 16 to the thickness of the second layer 20 should be in the range of 4:1 to 10:1.
The ink release from conventional monolith pads and rollers can be described by the following equation:
MC = Mo exp (-kc)
Mo equals initial weight of inked foam member
Mc = weight at cycle c
k = release rate constant
c = cycle number
With the instant composite inking members, the rate of release is approximated by the following formula:
Mc = Mo -kc
Mo = weight at cycle c
Mo = initial weight of inked foam member
k = release rate constant
It will be noted that with this equation there is no exponential factor and therefore no concentration dependence.
Major factors which have been found that diminish the uniform release of ink and limits the ink pay off are as follows:
1. Closed cells in the foam that have no interconnection.
2. Improper pore characteristics such as distribution and diameter.
3. Weak pumping action through capillary pressure.
4. Deformation of elastomer. (Decrease in resilience of foam due to viscollastic material properties and viscous force of inks).
5. Clogging of pores through time.
6. Absorption of liquid ink into the polymer of the foam resulting in an inability to dispense ink, i.e. lack of fluid release.
With regard to the first layer 16, i.e. the member with large pores that serves as an ink reservoir, certain materials were found preferable. This first layer should be made of a foam of high chemical compatibility or affinity for the type of inks that are used, such as polyvinyl alcohol acetalized with formaldehyde (PVAF) with a porosity, or percentage void volume, greater than 70%. By chemical affinity is meant the two materials, i.e. foam and ink, have similar functional groups or polarity expressed, for example, in solubility parameters. The solubility parameters to be used for the solvents and resins should be greater than (9.2 cal/cm 3) with moderate or strong hydrogen bonding as defined by the Hildebrand equation. The degree of acetalization should be approximately 60% to 70% which is hereby defined as low acetalization. Foam made of PVAF has been found to be the most preferred because of its high mechanical strength at low densities, good recovery from compression when inked, and its ability to incorporate a large volume of ink. Other foams that can be used are polyurethane ester with different degrees of cross linking, and polystyrene/acrylate and melamine/formaldehyde. Some of the foams were plasticized by solvents with high hydrogen bonding capacity such as glycols especially polyethylene glycols, and polypropylene glycols and alcohols. The plasticization as defined in this specification is a partial plasticization as opposed to permanent plasticization and is achieved in the case of PVAF and other similar foams by heating the foam with the inks therein between 70� C. and 100� C. for 10 minutes to one hour. Foams such as polyurethane have a high affinity for hydrogen bonding solvents such as glycols and glycol ethers and are plasticized readily by impregnations at room temperatures. In a roller where the core has been plasticized the core 16 will swell inside the sleeve 20 to form a mechanical bond there between. The sleeve 20 will not become plasticized since it is inert and will retain its original dimension and thus compress the core. The plasticized foam becomes highly elastic with high fluid flow capacity and absorption capacity for hydrophilic inks without losing their mechanical strength. Sometimes, permanently plasticized foams have been used as rollers to keep them soft and flexible but not for the purpose of enhancing transfer properties.
The second layer 20 meters the ink released from the first layer 16 and is made of a chemically resistant foam. Its function is to preserve the original dimensions of the roller 14 after the release of ink. This layer 20 should have a smooth firm surface with tight pores, less than 30μ. Examples of foams that can be used as a second layer 20 are sintered polyethylene with porosity between 40% and 85% and pore sizes between 7μ and 30μ, as for example nitrile rubber, polypropylene, polyolefin, PVAF with high acetalization of approximately 80% to 86%, which is hereby defined as high acetalization, and polyethylene vinylacetate.
The release rate of the ink from the first layer 16 will follow the cycle of the inking mechanism motion, and the pressure of engagement of the roller 14 or pad 16 with a print element in accordance with a modified Poiseuille law, ##EQU1## where Q = rate of flow
P = pressure differential
δ= layer thickness
η= viscosity
w = porosity and
r = effective pore radius
The replenishment of the ink for the first layer 16 will be governed by its capillary force, and the Fickian diffusion through the polymer to the outer layer 20.
With a top layer 20 having smaller pore sizes, there will be higher capillary pressure and the ink will be pumped more readily from the reservoir layer which has weaker capillarity as expressed by the Laplace equation: ##EQU2## Where Pc = capillary pressure
γl = Surface tension of the liquid
r = Average pore radius
θ= Contact angle of fluid
The diffusion coefficient will be significantly higher for the plasticized foams. Also, the partition coefficient of the ink in the PVAF foams is high due to the high hydrophilicity and affinity. The amount of ink supplied to the metering layer is controlled by both mechanical and chemical properties of the roller. The axial flow which results from the compression of the printing element is controlled by the properties of the foam, such as elastic recovery and high permeability. The axial flow of the ink, which is time dependent is controlled by the transport properties of the polymer ink system, such as diffusion and partitioning.
The inks used for such a system must have certain properties. The properties are as follows:
1. Homogenous phase for continuous flow without blocking the pores.
2. A single rate of flow for all active ingredients of the ink.
3. Hydrogen bonding types of solvents with chemical affinity for the above mentioned foams for plasticization of foams as required Examples of such solvents are glycols, glycol ethers, glycol esthers such as polyethylene glycols, alcohol esters and alcohol esthers.
4. Suitable viscosity so that the supply of ink and the release of ink match the pore characteristics closely. The viscosity range should be 600-2,000 cps at ambient for the above system.
5. The surface tension of the ink should match the initial surface energy of the polymer for optimum contact angle so that proper wetting and flow are achieved. Surfactants such as Igepal CO-210, CO-530 and C0-620 which are long chain aliphatic hydrocarbon chains-phenoxy (polyethyleneoxy) ethanol available from GAF Corp , can be used as wetting agents. Other non-ionic surfactants can also be incorporated in the ink.
Referring now to FIG. 3, a graph is shown of a comparison between a prior art monolith roller and a composite roller having a pair of layers made in accordance with the instant invention. The results shown in the graph are a measure of the rate of ink release as indicated by fluorescent intensity measurement read as phosphor meter units (PMU) vs. number of print cycles at 20 prints/min. The roller size was 5.74"(14.6 cm) long with a radius of 0.44"(1.23 cm) including the shaft 28. The monolith roller of prior materials was of Microfoam #60C9G urethane available from Monarch Marking Systems of Dayton, Oh. Plot "a" shows the rate of ink release of the prior art material. The ink used in this Example contained mainly 38% concentration of fluorescent pigment, 39% solvent of triethylene glycol, 10% surfactant nonyl phenoxy (polytethyleneoxy) ethanol, and 10% surfactant oleyl alcohol ethoxylate and 0.5% coloring dye. As is seen, the rate of ink release is relatively high during the initial four hundred prints and then begins to fall off quickly. Results using composite material of different dimensions are indicated by plot "b". The roller of plot "b" had a core of PVAF with a porosity of 90%, 130μ pore size and a thickness of 90 mils. and a sleeve of polyethylene with a porosity of 41.9%, a nominal pore size of 30μ and a thickness of 50 mils. As can be seen, the rate of ink release for plot "b" was constant over approximately two thousand print cycles and then began to fall. Even after thirty five hundred cycles, the rate of ink release for the composite roller was substantially higher than the prior monolith roller.
The results of a second comparison under the same conditions as in Example I is shown in FIG. 4 where once more the curves a and a' indicate results achieved with a prior art monolith roller, again a roller made from urethane foam identified as Microfoam #60C9G urethane high porosity foam, and b and b' represent a composite roller made in accordance with the instant invention. As is seen, at the outset the prior art roller released ink at a much higher rate initially, but at a slower rate after a few hundred cycles. The composite roller, whose performance is indicated by plot b, had a relatively uniform rate of ink release although not as uniform as shown in Example I. The composite roller had a core of PVAF with a porosity of 90% and a pore size of 700μ nominal and a sleeve of polyethylene with a porosity of 58.2% and pore size of 12μnominal.
The graph in FIG. 4 is somewhat different from that shown in FIG. 3 in that the ordinate on the left indicates the quantity of ink released upon each contact with a print head and the ordinate on the right is given in phosphorus meter units as explained in relation to FIG. 3. The value of plots a and b' can be obtained by reading the left side ordinate in milligrams per print and plots a' and b' can be interpreted by the right hand ordinate for phosphor meter units (PMU). The amount of ink deposited with the prior art monolith roller, as indicated at a, was large initially and then became relatively uniform after approximately four hundred cycles, although at a lower level. With regard to the detection of fluorescence through the phosphor meter reading, as indicated by curved a' once more one can see a great decrease after approximately four hundred cycles and then after this a rather uniform release is obtained. The release rate is at a lower level than the roller of the invention. With the roller of the instant invention, which as made with a core of PVAF and a sleeve of polyethylene, the amount of ink deposited was rather uniform as is shown in curve b. The fluorescence intensity, as given by curve b', fell off drastically at the end of the print cycle, around 3200 prints. Nevertheless, using the roller of the instant invention yielded a more uniform release of ink and a more uniform fluorescent signal.
With reference to FIG. 5, an example is given with an inventive roller as used in Example II but with a different pore size. The same urethane monolith roller as used in FIG. 4, or Example 2, was used for comparison. The inventive roller used a PVAF core with a porosity of 92%, 130μ nominal pore size and a thickness of 25 mils with a polyethylene sleeve, the results being indicated by curves a and a' for the standard material at the invention shown in curves b and b'. The results basically duplicate those achieved as given in Example II in that the amount of ink dispensed by the standard material initially was quite high for the first four hundred or so cycles and thereafter dispensed ink at a fairly uniform rate and gave a lower a pore size of 130μ and a polyethylene sleeve with a pore size of 12μ dispensed ink at a relatively uniform rate as is shown in curve b and the fluorescent reading was also uniform except at the end of the cycle as indicated by curve b'. Both the amount of ink dispensed and the fluorescent reading were substantially higher than obtained with the standard monolith roller.
With reference to FIG. 6, an example is given with a composite roller of different materials. The same urethane monolith roller as used in FIG. 4, or Example 2, was used to compare against a roller having a cross linked polyurethane core with a nominal pore size of 100μ and a porosity of 73.2% and a polethylene sleeve with a nominal pore size of 12μ. The results of the roller test are indicated by curves b and b'. With regard to the standard material, the results basically duplicate the results achieved in Examples II and III in that the amount of ink dispensed initially was quite high for the first four hundred or so cycles and thereafter ink was dispensed at a more uniform rate and a lower fluorescent reading was obtained. The combination of the polyurethane core and a polyethylene sleeve dispensed ink at a relatively uniform rate as is shown in cure b and the fluorescent reading was also uniform except at the end of the cycle as shown by curve b'. Both the amount of ink dispensed and the fluorescent readings were higher than obtained with the standard monolith roller.
With reference to FIG. 7 an example of a two layered pad with a uniform release of ink is given to exemplify the instant invention. The reservoir, or bottom, layer is made of melamine formaldehyde with a density of 0.7lbs/ft3, a nominal pore size of 140-145 microns and a porosity of 97.2% after being densified at a ratio of 3.5 to 1. The thickness of the reservoir layer was 0.165". The top, or metering, layer was made of polyurethane porous foam with a thickness of 0.020". The PMU was tested in a printing fixture at a speed of 4 prints per second and an engagement (deflection) of 0.03". The results were compared with an inker pad made of a reservoir layer made of neoprene with a density of 12 lbs/ft 3, pore size of 100μ nominal diversified at a ratio of 2 to 1. This was bonded to the same top layer as the inventive pad, i.e. polyurethane. As can be seen, the results with the reservoir layer made of melamine formaldehyde was substantially higher than the results with the known material. The intensity obtained from the measurement of the printings was substantially higher and the useful life of the pad was greater.
Thus, what has been shown and described is a combination of foams that can provide sustained ink release over a large number of print cycles. Additionally, it has been found the rollers and pads of the instant inventors result in superior print quality because of the controlled release and improved transfer properties.

I've organized some existing pages under a few different top-level pages using wordpress 3.0's new menu feature (i'm using the default theme). These top-level pages are more like categories for their daughter pages and I don't have or want to create content to have on the page for that top level page when really everything is already in the other pages in the drop down menu.
Is there a way to make the top level pages of my site's navigation no long be links?
thanks :)

Bold Red Feature Wall
My husband and I purchased our first home in May of 2007. When we moved into our new home, the walls were stark white. I appreciated the cleanliness of the look of white, but wanted to add some personality and flair to the home by adding color, and decided an accent wall would be perfect for what I wanted to accomplish.
Our downstairs is a large, open floor plan, with one room running into the next, and I wanted to add dimension and color to offset where the dining area in my home is.
I chose red because it is not only my favorite color, but it also looks great on an accent wall against some other white items, and black and white pictures. I chose the exact shade of red I wanted from a local home improvement store and got advice from a paint expert in the store on how I should best tackle my project.
They suggested a tinted primer in order to get the most vibrant color I could, and several coats of paint, allowing them all to dry in between. It was also recommended that I take an entire day to tape and caulk in order to get precision lines and as little bleed through as possible.
It took three days and five coats of paint, but I have my red wall, and I love it! While it was not the easiest job I have ever done, it certainly was gratifying to do the job myself.

Who should not take pyrantel (Antiminth, Ascarel, Pinworm Caplets, Pinworm Medicine, Pin-X)?
Before taking pyrantel, talk to your doctor about any other medical conditions that you have. Pyrantel should not be used if you have liver disease or if you have had an allergic reaction to this medicine in the past.
Do not take pyrantel without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant.
Do not take pyrantel without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Children younger than 2 years of age should not use pyrantel unless otherwise directed by your doctor.
How should I take pyrantel (Antiminth, Ascarel, Pinworm Caplets, Pinworm Medicine, Pin-X)?
Take pyrantel exactly as directed by your doctor or as directed in the package labeling. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.
Take each dose with a full glass of water.
Pyrantel may be taken with or without food at any time of the day.
Shake the suspension well before measuring a dose.
Use a dose-measuring spoon, cup, or dropper (not a regular tablespoon) to ensure that you measure the correct dose of medication. Ask your pharmacist where you can get a dose-measuring device if you do not have one.
Fasting, laxatives, and purging will not help cure this infection.
Treatment of family members and other close contacts may be necessary. Pinworm is spread very easily to others in close contact with the infected person.

Wanroij Travel Guide: 1 reviews and 9 photos
From 23 May till 26 May I was at the camping 'De Bergen'. My uncle had his birthday and he was standing on this camping.
On 23 May we arrived at the camping at 8pm. We installed the caravan on the spot. After that we went to my uncle and his wife to have a drink. At around 11pm we went to bed.
On 24 May we woke up at 8.30am. We had breakfast. After breakfast we did some games for the rest of the day. At around 3.45pm we were invited to have a drink at my uncles spot. Around 6pm we went back to have dinner. After dinner we did some games before going to sleep.
On 25 May my uncle had his birthday. We were up before my uncle and his wife were awake. So, we put balloons at his caravan. And a sign saying 'Happy Birthday 65 congratulations'. One balloon broke. My uncle and his wife heard that, but didn't go outside. About half an hour after we put up the balloons and so on, my uncle walked outside and saw everything. Which he liked. In the morning we gave our presents to my uncle. He liked all of them. Around noon the first guests came. In the next 2 and a half hours the rest of the guests arrived. We had a nice afternoon. For dinner we went out to a harbour place half an hour from the camping. This dinner was a BBQ. Which was really great. Everybody loved it. After dinner everybody went home. We went back to the camping.
On 26 May we woke up at 7.30am. After breakfast we were putting the last things in the caravan and left to go home.

For instance, January:
And so on. APTBS has always conjured up that sort of space very vividly. They seem to exist in these sort of under-imagined middleware places in modern life, between industry and decay, between man and nature, along the forgotten, moldering margins.
Album one was this:
A sort of chemical waste processing plant with junkie needles in the smashed concrete; a sulfurous sludge that sounded like it was corrupting your very being with every treated snare it rammed down your gob. It was amazing.Album two was a more like this:
Dark waves of marbled gloom washing over you. Dense, low-skied, but more ordered, structurally sound, awesome in the Edmund Burke sense.
Album three is a bit like this:
More intricate, just as industrial, still built for night, but displaying worrying signs of possible modernity and optimism. I guess if they were talking pure interview bullshit, they might say that this was their "pop" album. It's cleaner, sharper, the scree of noise is more glassy sheets rather than an amorphous squall. It is, according to bassist Dion Lunadon, "Our vision of what music in 2012 should sound like," and if you can imagine a future dystopian parallel to today where this is the mainstream, then you have just imagined something very cool indeed.

Many progressive Christians found themselves experiencing profoundly mixed feelings both about Pope Benedict's visit and about the protests against it, says Simon Barrow. This is perhaps because neither imperial religion nor rejectionist forms of secularism are adequate to the task of remaking public life and public faith.
Party conferences, at least for the 'big three', have become an elaborate ritual for the faithful, says Simon Barrow. But their well-spun manoeuvres have little to do with the 'new politics', let alone the harsh word of the Comprehensive Spending Review.
The received wisdom perpetuated by the government is that deep and immediate public spending cuts are necessary and beneficial, says Simon Barrow. But there are strong economic arguments that point towards investment in long-term sustainability rather than hitting the most vulnerable to reduce the deficit.
Neither fundamentalism nor functionalism offer a way forward for the churches today in terms of their public witness and political engagement, says Simon Barrow. The different stances taken by church bodies in the 2010 general election suggest important lessons for the future.
The government has retained support despite promises of swingeing cuts, the Lib Dems have gained little credit for their coalescing, and Labour has been on the up despite being leaderless and rudderless. Simon Barrow looks at the unreal politics of the parliamentary recess.
Investing in tradition-based pluralism rather than feeding monopoly needs to be the future of both religion and media, says Simon Barrow. And not just in the interactions between the two overlapping realms.
The origins of Christianity are in a dynamic and free movement around Jesus, but much of its history is bound up with institutional religion, says Simon Barrow. The challenge is to continue to respond to the transformative impulse of the Gospel, even in the midst of organisation and complexity.
What kind of 'narrative' is the new post-election, post-budget coalition government trying to create, asks Simon Barrow, and what is its ratio of substance to spin, of new politics to old-fashioned collusion? Moreover, how will Labour and extra-parliamentary activists who question the underlying Westminster consensus respond?
The status quo based on monopolistic politics and dominating religion is being challenged as never before, says Simon Barrow. This creates fresh and energising opportunities for cooperation across received 'religious' and 'secular' divides for a new era, and requires a new Christian vision too.
The 2010 General Election campaign has been more volatile and interesting than anyone could have predicted, and the outcome now sits on a knife-edge, says Simon Barrow. But whichever way it goes, there is an opportunity for genuine, ground-up, civic based change. We must not ignore or miss it.

Hi there,
I'm trying to use your plugin to combine an external RSS feed with the posts for the blog that's hosting it. I appreciate that the plugin uses SimplePie and so can't access the loop of posts directly.
I'm using http://domain.com/feed where the domain.com is that of the site I've installed the plugin on and it says this is an Invalid URL, when I use the W3 Validator is says it's valid, and I've successfully used it in RSS feed readers.
If there's a solution that'd be super. If what I'm looking to do is impossible then it'd be good to know that too.

Arsenal Message Board

I am sure AFC will finish at least top 4 - by the way all the bragging from the Mancs 8-2 - they got three points - I thought the way they carry on and on and on BORING - perhaps they thought one more point for every goal!!!! Come on Arsenal!!!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
And Anne, dont try and claim you wouldnt be the same if Arsenal had beaten us 8-2. Enough of your fans went bezerk when you beat us 2-1 a couple of seasons back.
Its not just about the 3 points on the day is it. There is so much more to a football result than that if you are a proper fan! Liverpool only got 3 points when they turned us over 4-1 at OT but it hurt a lot more than the 1 defeat it represented.
I actually have a feeling you will get a trophy this season. It wont be the Champs league or the league, but could see you winning the FA cup.
Think you will also be fighting it out with Liverpool for 4th.

Its nice to hear that people still have the faith. We have two groups of people here. Those who think we are doomed and will finish far from top 4 and those that see we have a chance. As for me am sure we are right in the mix. And we can run away with one trophy this season. ARSENAL! ARSENAL! ARSENAL! ARSENAL! ARSENAL! ARSENAL! ARSENAL!

Lake Country Lutheran doesn't get the bounces
Grand Chute — A bunt a few feet in front of the plate and a bloop single a couple yards past the infield, and just like that, Lake Country Lutheran's chance at its first Division 4 spring baseball state championship had vanished.
Greenwood scored three times in the bottom of the sixth inning to beat Lutheran, 6-4, Thursday morning at Fox Cities Stadium.
The Indians finished with a 16-3 record in winning their first state title since their 1990 Class C championship. The Lightning, which has just three seniors, ends with a 24-5 mark after making its tournament debut.
"It is about the very worst way to lose," Lutheran coach David Bahr said. "They executed. I told the guys after the game it all came down to execution. ... And their hits weren't slaughtered, but they found holes. That's the difference in a game like this. Sometimes it's just inches. I can't fault any of our kids. We just didn't get it done."
In the sixth, Blake Sterland led off with a single, took second on a sacrifice bunt and then third on a passed ball on a high and outside pitch from Jesse Turner that popped out of the glove of catcher Murphy Shannon.
Because of the passed ball, Sterland was able to tie the score at 4-4 on a squeeze bunt by Alexander Volovsek that was fielded by Turner. But unlike the fifth inning when he threw a runner out at home on another squeeze attempt, his throw would not have been in time even if Shannon had been able to hang on to the ball.
"He kind of popped up the bunt, so I thought Jesse was going to catch it and throw him out at third," Shannon said. "But it got down, so I tried to block the plate. I just couldn't squeeze it. It would've been a close play."
Kole Hinker delivered a sacrifice bunt, Westin Wuethrich was intentionally walked and Kody Learman was hit on an 0-2 pitch to load the bases. After two curveballs to Learman, Turner's plan was a high fastball.
"It was just too inside," Turner said. "I lost control of it a little bit and it didn't feel right out of my hand."
The left-handed hitting Tyler Johnson then blooped a shallow two-run single down the left-field line that gave the Indians the 6-4 lead.
"It was unreal," Johnson said. "Kody gets hit and I'm shaking so bad up there. I was like, 'Hopefully I can come through for my team.'"
Greenwood pitcher Westin Wuethrich also came through, striking out 11 in six innings.
The four runs Lutheran scored in the second for a 4-1 lead were all unearned, and Wuethrich also got out of bases-loaded jams in the first and fifth innings.
"A ton of credit has to go out to their pitcher," Bahr said. "He was absolutely outstanding. We knew that might be the case when we saw he was able to pitch just one inning after they got a big lead (in the semifinals Wednesday) and they were going to save him for the championship.
"I just thought after we got through with four runs in the second, maybe we'd relax and get a little more. But I think the pressure of the state championship just nerved us up enough that we were a little tight at the plate and couldn't get some key things to happen."

US Department of Interior Allows First-Ever Solar Energy Projects on Public Lands
October 6, 2010 10:28 AM - David A Gabel, ENN
Yesterday, the Secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar approved the nation's first-ever large-scale solar energy plants to be built on public lands. Both plants, located in California, are first in a series of clean energy projects under final review by the Department of Interior (DOI) that are to be built on public lands. The California projects will have access to 6,800 acres that could produce up to 754 megawatts, enough to power up to 566,000 typical homes.
Sleep and Diet
October 5, 2010 03:41 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Sleep is sleep. Diet is diet. Then again cutting back on sleep reduces the benefits of dieting, according to a study published October 5, 2010, in the Annals of Internal Medicine. When dieters in the study got a full night's sleep, they lost the same amount of weight as when they slept less. When dieters got adequate sleep, however, more than half of the weight they lost was fat. When they cut back on their sleep, only one-fourth of their weight loss came from fat.
America's Food Waste Equates to Wasted Energy
October 5, 2010 11:29 AM - David A Gabel, ENN
America is certainly the land of plenty. This country has been blessed with an overabundance of natural resources and some of the world's most fertile agricultural land. However, every year millions of tons of food is wasted. According to a new study published in the journal, Environmental Science & Technology, the amount of food wasted in the US each year is equivalent to wasting approximately 350 million barrels of oil.
The Future of Aviation: Confusion or Sanity
October 4, 2010 12:58 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
All industries across the world face the same regulatory maze and misdirection. In some cases it has led to industry leaving and going to China where laws are more permissive, That is not an option for the aviation industry which flies everywhere. All aviation stakeholders, including manufacturers, airlines, airports and navigation service providers, have issued a joint call for governments to agree a global plan to address aviation emissions at December's United Nations climate summit in Cancun.
Ancient Colorado River
October 4, 2010 12:29 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Geologists have found evidence that some 55 million years ago a river as big as the modern Colorado River flowed through Arizona into Utah in the opposite direction from the present-day river. Writing in the October issue of the journal Geology, they have named this ancient northeastward-flowing river the California River, after its inferred source in the Mojave region of southern California.
BP Texas City Aftermath
October 1, 2010 01:44 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Accidents happen. Unfortunately, for BP, they have been in the news often for some major incidents. Besides the Gulf of Mexico spill this year, there was the March 23, 2005 incident. This was a fire and explosion that occurred at BP's Texas City Refinery in Texas City, Texas, killing 15 workers and injuring more than 170 others. BP was charged with criminal violations of federal environmental laws and has been subject to lawsuits from the victim's families. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration slapped BP with a then-record fine for hundreds of safety violations, and subsequently imposed an even larger fine after claiming that BP had failed to implement safety improvements following the disaster. BP has now been agreed to pay a $15 million penalty that resolves federal civil claims stemming from the two fires, leak, and reporting violations at the refinery that occurred in the same time frame.
Turkmenistan Oil and Gas
October 1, 2010 10:12 AM - Andy Soos, ENN
Oil and gas supplies and their future use is a major variable for the 21st. century. On the one hand there is a demand to go to renewable sources. On the other hand is that oil and gas will be used for many years to come. Turkmenistan's president said on September 3oth. that his country had the capacity to almost quadruple its natural gas exports in the next 20 years and was ready to meet demand from Europe. The discovery of a major gas field was announced three days ago.
Mice, Men and Exercise
September 30, 2010 04:11 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
To exercise or not to exercise, that is the question. Perhaps it is not a question. Working on mice in the lab, researchers have found that activity level can be enhanced with "selective breeding" - the process of breeding plants and animals for particular genetic traits. Their experiments showed that mice that were bred to be good runners produced good running offspring, indicating that the offspring had inherited the trait for that activity which may be called exercise.
A New Earth?
September 30, 2010 03:32 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
The ultimate in astronomical matters would be the discovery of a new planet similar to the Earth. This would be a whole new environment, whole new species as well as many other intriguing philosophical matters. Astronomers have found a new, potentially habitable Earth-sized planet. It is one of two new planets discovered around the star Gliese 581, some 20 light years away from our own. The planet, Gliese 581g, is located in a "habitable zone"—a distance from the star where the planet receives just the right amount of stellar energy to maintain liquid water at or near the planet's surface.
Solar Planes
September 29, 2010 12:31 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Boeing is one of the most recognizable names in the aviation industry, so when they come up with a new design it generates a great deal of attention and fanfare. In this case the new design is of a solar powered plane. Others have proposed similar in the past. Perhaps Boeing will generate enough interest for long term support of the concept.

AbstractThe lateral photovoltaic effect (LPE) can be used in position-sensitive detectors to detect very small displacements due to its output of lateral photovoltage changing linearly with light spot position. In this review, we will summarize some of our recent works regarding LPE in metal-semiconductor and metal-oxide-semiconductor structures, and give a theoretical model of LPE in these two structures.

SOUTH BERWICK, Maine — Police here are investigating an incident at Berwick Academy where it is alleged a teacher was taking photographs of female students over a period of 12-18 months.
The students were not aware they were being photographed, authorities say.
Police were first notified by Berwick Academy officials on Monday of possible inappropriate conduct involving a teacher.
Wednesday afternoon police executed a search warrant in Sanford in relation to the matter.
While no information was provided on what their search yielded, police say the evidence collected is being forwarded for a detailed computer forensic examination.
Berwick Academy officials have been cooperating with police in gathering information and making appropriate parental notifications, authorities say.
Though no charges have yet been filed, police say criminal charges are expected to be forthcoming within the week once the extent of the actions can be fully determined.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to contact the South Berwick Police Department at (207) 384-2254.
