Such lined containers are desirable whenever it is difficult to satisfy all of the requirements and specifications by using a single plastic. For example, my previous U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,717,544 and 3,719,735 disclose multilayered plastic containers and the preparation of same characterized by placing a relatively thin sleeve of plastic over a blow core corresponding to the shape of the blow core, molding organic plastic material thereover in a parison mold to form a composite parison and expanding the composite parison in a blow hold to form a multilayered, hollow plastic material.
It is particularly desirable to develop a multi-layered plastic container which is suitable for use with beverages, such as carbonated beverages, where different properties are desired in the liner and the remainder of the container.
One may desire a linear which is suitable for preventing loss of carbonation in a carbonated beverage, while desiring the remainder of the container to have high strength in order to prevent physical damage. Naturally, a container of this type should have certain characteristics. For example, it should be inexpensive and convenient to produce and to transport, it should be convenient to fill in a commercial operation, and, while preferably a container of the easy open variety, it should be pilferpro of.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the present invention to provide a multilayered, plastic container which is suitable for a wide variety of uses, especially for use with beverages, such as carbonated beverages.
It is an additional object of the present invention to provide a container as aforesaid which is inexpensive and convenient to produce, which is capable of being transported in the nested condition and which is convenient to fill in a commercial operation by using high speed filling devices.
An additional object of the present invention is to provide a container as aforesaid which may be made in the easy open variety while still having the required properties for use with carbonated beverages.
Additional objects and advantages of the present invention will appear hereinafter.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, it has now been found that the foregoing objects and advantages may be readily obtained. The container of the present invention is a multilayered, hollow plastic container having a bottom wall, a perpherally extending side wall extending vertically upward from the bottom wall and terminating at its upper end in a mouth, said bottom wall being separately attachable to the side wall. The container has an inner, first layer of a thermosplastic material which is preferably thermoformed, but may be made by other known procedures as well, said layer defining the side wall and mouth, usually scored at the mouth, and an outer second layer of a pressure molded, thermoplastic material adhered to the inner layer substantially throughout the extent of theside wall. A disc like bottom closure is provided, connected to theside wall at the periphery of the closure. The closureis separate from the side wall and attachable thereto to enable filling of the container at the wide, bottom opening using high speed filling equipment. Preferably, but not necessarily, the bottom closure is a composite material having an inside layer and an outside layer, with the inside layer corresponding in composition to the inner layer of the container and the outside layer corresponding in composition to the outer layer of the container. After the container is filled. the bottom closure is sealingly connected to the side walls of the container, preferably by sealing together the inner first layer of the peripherally extending side wall and the inside layer of the closure to form a substantially impervious layer.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The present invention will be more readily understood from a consideration of the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic view of a holder for the stacked liners in relation to a core;
FIG. 2 is a section of a parison mold for use in the present invention;
FIG. 3 is a section of a blow mold for use in the present invention;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the component units of the container of the present invention; and
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a modified container of the present invention in the assembled condition.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION FIG. 1 shows a plurality of liners I0 stacked and placed into a holding fixture II which may be brought into alignment with a core, such as blow core 12. The liner has an inner surface closely approximating the outer surface of the core so that the liner fits snugly thereover. The liners 10 are fed onto the core 12 by any desired means, such as moving the core 12 into the holding fixture 11 and applying a vacuum to slots 14 via line 15, which may be connected to a source of vacuum (not shown). The core is then withdrawn from the fixture with the liner thereon. Naturally, it should be understood that any suitable means may be employed for placing the liner on the core, or for holding a plurality of liners.
It can be seen from FIG. 1 that the liner 10 has an open bottom 20, peripherally extending side wall 21 with an outwardly flaring rim 21a at the base thereof, saidside wall extending vertically upward from the open bottom and terminating at its upper end in a mouth 22. Side wall 21 is flared to enable nesting of the liners. Mouth 22 may be scored, as at 23, and may have a thickened portion 24 adjacent the scoring. It can be seen that the liner 10 will provide the inner layer of the side wall of the composite container of the present invention and the mouth portion thereof.
The liner may be prepared by such known methods as vacuum forming or thermoforming from plastic sheet to provide a drawn, thermoplastic material of the desired configuration. For example, a sheet of thermoplastic material from which the liner is to be made may be heated to a temperature at which it becomes deformable. The heated sheets may be placed into juxtaposition with amold and a forming plug having the desired configuration and the sheet converted into the desired shape'by drawing the sheet into the mold which intrinsically produces attenuation of the sheet at the side walls. Scored portions 23 may be simultaneously produced by providing a corresponding ridge on the plug. The thickened portion 24 is obtained due to the fact that the sheet is less attenuated in drawing at the center than it is at the side walls, as is known in the art.
The core 12 with the liner thereon is then transferred to a mold 30 which may be a parison mold (FIG. 2) by suitable actuating means (not shown). An injection nozzle 31 is connected to a source of hot, moldable plastic from which the plastic may be injected into the mold 30. The mold 30 coacts with core 12 to provide mold cavity 32 which may be filled with plastic from nozzle 31' under pressure, as is customary in injection molding. The molten plastic is then injected over the liner to fill the cavity 32. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the liner 10 contacts the upper portion 30a of mold 30 so that the molten plastic is injected around liner side wall 21 only and no plastic is injected against liner mouth 22. In other words, the core 12 forces liner mouth 22 into contact with the upper portion 30a of mold 30 and thereby provides a 'mold cavity 32 which surrounds the'liner side wall 21. Note that outwardly flaring rim 21a forms the base of the side wall and that the molten plastic is injected against said rim.
As is known in the art, the core 12 may be kept at an elevated temperature, as bymeans of internal circulation of a heated fluid. Accordingly, the liner 10 will be heated by the core once they are brought into contact with each other. After injection of molten plastic the liner 10 will be further heated to a temperature approaching that of the .incoming plastic. When so heated, the liner is rendered readily deformable in case expansion of the side walls by blow molding techniques is desire as will be shown hereinbelow, and also the liner will be adhered to the freshly injected plastic substantially throughout their contacting surfaces.
Thus, a lined parison 40 is prepared having a composite side wall with an inner first layer of a drawn, thermoplastic material and an outer second layer of a pressure molded, thermoplastic material with the inner first layer having an outwardly flaring rim 21a at the base thereof so that the liner overlaps the outer layer at the base thereof. The mouth of the parison is a single layer of the drawn thermoplastic material which may have a scored portion 23 and a thickened portion 24 adjacent thereto. The side walls of the parison are flared so that each parison is nestable with other like parisons.
In the process of pressure molding in accurate molds,
close dimensional tolerances are maintained. Whether the container body of this invention is simply pressure molded, or subsequently also blown, the bottom rim 21a will be accurate within a few thousands of an inch,
for typical dimensions of small to medium containers, within about 0.002 inches. If the pressure molded article is blown, the bottom rim remains unaffected, as clearly shown in FIG. 3. Hence, the accuracy of the bottom rim can be relied upon in eithr case.
Very close dimensional control of the bottom rim dimensions is unavoidably called for if any closure is to be applied so as to seal the container hermetically, even against pressure such as in a carbonated beverage bottle. The bottom closure must of course exhibit corresponding close tolerances and the tolerances of the two elements, the body and the bottom closure, must be so taken as to be compatible. Both components being pressure molded in accurate molds, this is feasible for the present invention. This applies regardless of whether the bottom closure is ultimately screwed on, held by a cam-lock, or slipped on for subsequent heat sealing, or other types of sealing.
It can be readily seen that the lined parison 40 may be conveniently employed in its present state to serve as the container of the present invention. If it is to be so used, the lined parison 40 is allowed to cool in the mold cavity 32, removed therefrom after cooling and transferred to be filled. Alternatively, if desired, the side wall of the composite parison 40 may be expanded by blow molding techniques, as shown in FIG. 3, in order to enlarge the container or achieve a particularly desired configuration. An additional advantage offered by blow molding is that the plastic is oriented thereby, thus increasing the strength properties. Thus, the core 12 may be a blow core, with slots 14 being blow slots which may be opened and closed by conventional means (not shown) and which communicates with a source of fluid pressure by means of line 15. The blow core 12 with the-composite parison thereon is inserted into blow mold 41. The liner mouth 22 is pressed against the bottom 41a of the blow mold both to insure accurate alignment between the blow core and blow mold, and also to insure that there is no distension of the mouth 22 of the liner. As the next step, pressure fluid, usually compressed air, is admitted into the parison through slots 14 and the parison is expanded into the blow mold 41 to assume the shape of the blow mold cavity 42 as indicated by dotted lines in FIG. 3. Fluid pressure is maintained until the blown articles cools sufficiently in contact with the walls of the blow mold 41 to be removed therefrom.
Hence, the body of the container of the present invention is provided which may assume the configuration of the injection molded material of FIG. 2 or preferably the blow molded material of FIG. 3. In either case an open bottom container is provided with a composite side wall 51 consisting of an inner first layer 52 and an outer second layer 53, a single layer mouth 54 of said liner, which may be scored as previously described, and an open mouth body is provided having sufficient taper to make it nestable. At the narrow end, which will become the pouring spout of the finished container, the liner is exposed. As shown in FIG. 4, an inexpensive overcap 55 may be provided, preferably made of plastic, which can be applied to the narrow end of the container. If the liner is scored at the narrow end, overcap 55 may be sealed to the scored portion of the liner so that the scored part is torn and opened when the cap is removed. The cap 55 may be attached to the container side Wall 51 on the outside, as by heat sealing, and a tab 56 or other suitable means provided for easy removal thereof. Hence, a tamper-proof and easily openable closure system is provided by using no more than an inexpensive, flexible overcap which provides no sealing function. The overcap need not hold pressure since the liner can be made substantial enough at the opening to withstand pressure. In fact, the thermoforming process which may be used to prepare the liner favors increased thickness at that location. Naturally, if desired, one may provide a cap which provides an additional sealing function, or omit the overcap entirely and use a tear tab on the mouth 54.
To complete the container, a bottom assembly 60 is provided comprising a disclike closure which may be connected to side wall 51 around the periphery of the closure. The closure is preferably a composite having an inside layer 6] usually of a drawn or otherwise pressure molded thermoplastic material and an outside layer 62 of a pressure molded thermoplastic material adhered to the inside portion. Desirably, the inside layer 61 corresponds in composition to the side wall inner layer 52 and the outside layer 62 corresponds to the side wall outer layer 53. It is possible to construct the bottom assembly of a dissimilar material other than plastic, such as an aluminum disc. For example, a metal bottom closure may be attached to the container by double seaming or crimping.
As shown in FIG. 4, the bottom assembly 60 may be domed or curved inwardly and may include supporting members or gussets 63 for reinforcement. Such reinforcment is particularly desirable whenever the contents of the container are to be kept under pressure, such as in the case of carbonated beverages and of aerosols. Alternatively, a bottom assembly 60a, such. as shown in FIG. 5, may be employed using a closure having a substantially flat configuration with 61a representing the inside layer and 62a representing the outside layer. In such a construction, gussets 63 are inside the assembled container, rather than outside as in FIG. 4. In either the embodiments of FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 it can be seen that the inwardly protruding closure or supporting member can be designed to control the filling level of a liquid filled into the container, since the liquid will be displaced upon immersion of said inward protrusion. As a result, it is possible to fill the container first only to a level that will preclude spillage and then to eliminate such air space as would otherwise remain if a closure without immersed protrusions were to be used. Naturally, other desired shapes may be chosen for the bottom assembly depending upon desired container use. The thickness distribution both of the container and the closure can be closely controlled. The outside portion of the bottom assembly can be readily injection molded and made of the same material as the container body and lined the same as the body by first placing a preformed liner into the injection mold and injecting said material against it.
Note, as clearly shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, outwardly flaring rim 21a is sealed to the inside closure layer 61 or 61a.
If desired, the bottom closure can be removable. For example, a screwed on base can be employed using a sealant of a thermoplastic substance which may be softened by heating at a temperature lower than the temperature that would damage the container body or the base itself, thereby rendering the bottom closure readily removable.
Desirably, the entire operation readily lends itself to high speed production on an automated assembly line. For example, the bottom liner may be thermoformed and inserted automatically into the injection mold.
The container body and the bottom closure may be conveniently packaged and transported to the location at which the finished container is to be filled. It is to be noted particularly that the container body may be transported while nested with other like container bodies, thus providing a very advantageous shipping den- Slt lilpon arrival at the filling location, the container bodies may be mechanically unstacked and filled by high speed filling equipment, which operates at substantially higher rates than the equipment normally employed for the filling of bottles, because the filling operation occurs through the wide opening which compares to the opening of a can. Thus the container according to this invention combines the advantages of a bottle, namely the narrow opening used for dispensing its contents, with those of a can, namely the rate of filling made possible by a large filling opening, that rate being as much as five to six times that of a bottle.
The attachmentof the bottom to the container body is performed 'at the filling line-automatically, immediately following the filling operation. It is noted that upon assembly, the inner layers or liners of the body I and of the bottom are in contact over a sufficient area an effective sealant. Alternatively, one may heat seal the components, or one may utilize ultrasonic sealing. One may also embed a thin layer of metal in the region to be sealed and heat it by means of an induction heating coil. Alternatively, of course, a simple mechanical lock may be used in combination with a sealing compound. All of these methods of assembly and sealing are well known in the art.
Containers of the type here described are frequently exposed to the hazard of breaking due to being dropped from an excessive height. The point of impact on such occasions is usually the bottom rim of the container. In order to prevent such breakage, it is customary to provide the corner regions at the bottom with increased thickness which necessitates using excessive amounts of plastic. Instead, one may employ a shock absorbing cushion 65 in conjunction with the container according to the present invention, because it is very conveniently attachable to the outside portion 62 of the separately made bottom closure member. Such cushion 65 may be made of a foam material and pre-assembled to the closure member automatically immediately following the molding of the latter.
The container of the present invention offers considerable versatility. Thus one may select the material of the liner so as to have one of the properties that the finished article is to have and the material of the injected plastic so as to have another of the desired properties. The liner may contain several layers of laminations to provide a liner having the combined properties of several plastics. Typical materials which may be used for the outer portion include polyolefins, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyvinyl chloride, etc. Typical liner materials include the acetal polymers, polyolefins, ionomer resins, polyallomer copolymers, polystyrene, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl chloride, polycar bonates, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, etc. It is also possible to produce finished articles having desirable appearance by providing different colors and degrees of transparency in the liner and the material that is injected therearound.
This invention may be embodied in other forms or carried out in other ways without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. The present embodiment is therefore to be considered as in all respects illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims, and
all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency are intended to be embraced therein.

A family could never be complete without having any family bonding. Most families have family bonding during weekends and some even have it everyday. Most of the families who have quality time together everyday are most likely the families who have daughters and sons who are still young. Their children don't have any families yet so they have more time to spend with each other. For the families who already have in-laws, since they're already staying in a different house, most of the time, they have a family reunion every weekend.
Family bonding sure is a very important factor in every family. Without having quality time with your family, there could be some problems that might occur. In order to avoid this, it would be best to spend time with your family whether it's everyday or every weekend. By spending quality time with your loved ones, you'll be able to make your relationship closer and stronger. Another good thing about spending quality time with your family members is, you could always give them the guidance they need upon growing up. Just think of a family who sticks together, isn't it amazing?
I know some families who are really close with each other. Whenever I have the chance to spend time with them, I really can't help but be happy for them and be amazed on how close their family is. It takes effort to create such a close family but if each member would exert some effort, it wouldn't be impossible. A happy family starts with family bonding.

Records: Pepperdine is 7-12, 1-7. USD is 7-12, 2-5.
Toreros update: No loss last season stung more than at home to Pepperdine, a 70-63 loss after Mychel Thompson made a 40-footer at the buzzer to force overtime. The Waves won all three meetings last year, including one in the WCC tournament. The Toreros have lost four straight at home and six of seven, but they are continually improving – winning by 19 at Portland last week and showing flashes Saturday in a 77-60 loss at Gonzaga. G Darian Norris, now coming off the bench, erupted for 14 points at Portland and 20 at Gonzaga after scoring just nine total in his previous three games.
Waves update: They opened WCC play with an impressive 77-61 win against USF and promptly lost seven straight, failing to top 50 points in four of them. Senior F Taylor Darby (Mission Hills High) leads the Waves in scoring (11.6 ppg) and rebounding (6.1), and he's coming off a career-high 21 points against BYU. At 13.3 ppg, G Jordan Baker is second in scoring among freshmen in league games behind USD's Johnny Dee (15.7 ppg in league games). Under new coach Marty Wilson, the Waves are holding opponents to just 63.7 points, but they're only scoring 58.4 and shooting 39 percent.
On Saturday, the BYU players had watched on TV as San Diego State hosted UNLV before another sellout at Viejas Arena, a crazed scene they knew well from their days in the Mountain West.
On Monday, they played USD at the Jenny Craig Pavilion.
"It was a little different," BYU junior Brock Zylstra said.
The announced crowd was 3,204, and even that seemed a tad on the generous side. You could hear sneakers squeaking, hear coaches calling out plays, hear referees' whistles, hear people having conversations in a normal voice.
"We had to find energy within ourselves," a befuddled Zylstra said.
The USD men (7-12, 2-5) host Pepperdine tonight, and plenty of good seats remain. That will make it 38 straight games since the last sellout at the 5,100-seat Slim Gym. SDSU's biennial trip there in December couldn't sell out. A Saint Mary's team on the verge of a national ranking drew an announced crowd of 3,317. BYU, despite a concerted marketing effort, got even less last week. None of the other six home games has been over 2,200.
"Some nights," Coach Bill Grier said, "I really address our team on how we have to create our own energy because I know we're not going to have a big crowd. I worry about our guys coming out flat."
The Jenny Craig Pavilion opened in 2000, replacing the antiquated USD Sports Center that seated 2,500. Instantly, season tickets quadrupled from 200 to 800 and the crowd for the grand opening game against Oregon State was 4,003.
The Toreros played before capacity crowds five times in 2007-08, the year they won the WCC tournament and went two rounds deep in the NCAA Tournament. The following season, home attendance jumped to 3,009, including sellouts for Saint Mary's and Gonzaga.
But that was it. There hasn't been a sellout since, and attendance dipped to 2,092 last season as the Toreros went 6-24. Of the 37 games without a sellout, 24 crowds could have fit in the Sports Center and 21 were under 2,000.
"To come into the gym and not see fans, it hurts because you're a basketball player and you want to play in full arenas," junior guard Cameron Miles said. "On the other end, they also want to see you win. We have to step it up and give them something to watch. And I feel like this team this year gives people something to watch. We play hard. We're exciting."
Average attendance is up to 2,392 through nine home dates, but that includes the 4,708 for SDSU. Subtract that, and crowds have been relatively flat with last season's numbers, which didn't have the benefit of the SDSU game.
"It's San Diego," USD athletic director Ky Snyder said. "We know we have to earn it. Given where we've been and trying to work our way back into it, we're starting to turn it around. One thing I keep hearing from people is that they like the way we're playing. It's going to take time for that to translate into more fans.
"And frankly, what's going on over at San Diego State has been a factor, too."
The Aztecs are a staggering 52-5 over the last two seasons, and Viejas Arena is routinely sold out. But it hasn't always been that way. The arena had just eight sellouts in its first 13 years before selling out 13 times last season.
"I guess I've kind of grown to realize that that's just what it is here," Grier said. "I know that the year after we went to the (NCAA) tournament, I brought in some good teams and people didn't show up. But you need to win. You need to win three, four, five years in a row."Copyright © 2017, The San Diego Union-Tribune

That is awesome, you did an excellent job. I need to show this to some of the other artists I'm stal- er- watching. Only one comment on this!?!?!? That's so wrong, this deserves way more attention than that!
Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it. I've been waiting for this to get at least one.

Once again, President Donald Trump has proved to Trevor Noah that he is Americas most powerful adolescent.
The Daily Show host on Tuesday tore apart the presidents speech given at the annual Boy Scout Jamboree on Monday, in which Trump promised not to get political before droning on about politics.
But according to Noah, the most stunning part of Trumps speech wasnt his predictable rantings on Hillary Clinton, Obamacare and the fake news media. It was when he launched into an inappropriate tangent that appeared too explicit to even finish.
Trump did have an actual message for the Boy Scouts, Noah explained. And, needless to say, it was completely inappropriate for the Boy Scouts.
The Daily Show cut to a clip of Trump telling the massive crowd of Boy Scouts about a real estate tycoon who sold his company for a tremendous amount of money, bought a yacht and lived a very interesting life.
In the speech, Trump said he couldnt go more into the story because he was talking to an audience of young Boy Scouts. Then, egged on by the crowd, Trump makes a suggestive remark:Ah, youre Boy Scouts, but you know life.
As usual, Noah appeared both confused and disgusted by Trump.
Did.. Did this guy just regale 40,000 pre-teen boys with the take of an old real estate mogul having yacht sex? Is that what he did, the comedian asked.
And then he ended it with, Yeah, you 12-year-olds, you know life, Noah said mockingly. We all smash, right?
Watch the Daily Show take on Trumps ridiculous Boy Scout speech in the video above.

I was watching a show I normally enjoy a great deal, Rick Stein's Food Heroes which is basically this chef/food writer going around the UK in search of fresh produce/meats/foods that are available to encourage people to explore their own regions and use fresh foods in cooking.
During one of these shows, he was talking about boiled lobster, can't remember the context exactly, but he said something about all it needs is butter to be delightful, but not served with ketchup, "Like the Americans do".
I was flabbergasted. I have never known anyone anywhere here in the US who served ketchup with their lobster (I've had lobster in Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Alaska, Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, and probably some other places I'm not recalling). Not even cocktail sauce like you get some some shrimp cocktails was included in any lobster meal I've ever had.
This got me wondering... ARE there places in the US where they serve ketchup with lobster? Any of you ever heard of such?

Red Bull's chief designer Adrian Newey disclosed that the 2011 car will not have a radical new design but rather, it will be an evolution of the championship-winning RB6. Ever since new regulations were put in place in 2009, Red Bull has come up with race-winning cars and was able to complete both seasons with the fastest chassis.
Double diffusers will not be permitted in 2011 and the car's weight distribution will be set by the FIA and teams will have to hold bulky KERS units in the chassis; however, Newey insists that the RB7 won't require a drastic rethink. Newey told laola1.at that the DNA would not be changed and that the RB6 was "basically an evolution of the last car."
In the past, Red Bull's rivals have raised complaints about the legality of Newey's car -- something that he expects to happen again for the 2011 car. He explained that when the car's leading in F1, people think that you're cheating.
With regards to the major regulation changes in 2013, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said he's not ruling out the possibility that the team will switch its engine supplier or even build its own engines.
In 2013, Formula One will use 1.6-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged engines. In relation to this, Red Bull team owner Dietrch Mateschitz has implied that there will be a major change.
In a recent interview with laola1.at, Horner talked about the importance of keeping all options open, noting that this is one of Mateschitz's great strengths. Horner also said that an F1 engine deal with car giant Volkswagen is considered more likely.

Dai Young says there is more to come from Wasps
Wasps director of rugby Dai Young insists his side have room for improvement despite hammering Bristol 70-22 at the Ricoh Arena.
They maintained their 100 per cent start to the Premiership season with a 10-try romp over the newcomers.
Christian Wade, Elliot Daly and Ashley Johnson all scored two tries for Wasps while Jake Cooper-Woolley, Tommy Taylor, Matt Symons and Danny Cipriani also touched down.
But despite the margin of victory, Young believes there is even more to come from his team.
He said: "I would have settled for that before the game began and 14 out of 15 points is a real good start for us.
"The test was to keep our focus and I'm pleased that we did as we had a bonus point in the bag by half-time.
"We haven't produced an 80-minute performance or a perfect performance as we got a bit messy at times today."
The interplay between fly-half Cipriani and Jimmy Gopperth, who kicked 20 points playing at 12, was impressive in a breathtaking Wasps performance with the two players earning praise from Young.
"We didn't stumble across the fact that Jimmy could play at 12," he said. "We knew he could adapt to that role but we've only got two 10s so that's a big risk and we will need to rest them at some stage.
"We are aiming to have two quality players in each position. It's manageable at present but when we get to Europe, some hard selection decisions will have to be made. It will be a question of who's playing best at a particular time."
Bristol director of rugby Andy Robinson conceded that it had been a very tough afternoon.
Four tries in 17 minutes had seen Wasps build up a 37-3 half-time lead but Bristol showed greater spirit after the interval and narrowly missed out on a bonus point.
Robinson said: "We can't afford to make as many errors as we do. Premiership sides are very efficient. There were times when we were on the front foot, Wasps' defence then put us on the back foot so we lost possession and conceded seven points.
"You need to look after the football a lot better and we made a number of disappointing decisions defensively as we gave them too much space on the outside.
"We know we are going to get days like this but if we work hard, we'll be able to turn it round as our endeavour to get a bonus point was good."

If you want to bcp a specific set from a table, create a view for that set and bcp out from the view:
create view <viewname>
select <columns>
from <table>
where <condition>
Then, use the bcp-command to extract the data:
bcp <db>..<viewname> out <filename> <other parameters>I'm not crazy, I'm an aeroplane!

You could also use sqsh which is a sort of advanced isql. This allows bcp'ing while using a where clause.

Healthy measures of adventure, relaxation and recreation make Cabo San Lucas one of the most prominent tourist destinations in Mexico. Its proximity to Los Angeles that is only a two and a half hour flight away makes it even more popular with American tourists who need a quick getaway.

So if you're on the lookout for a location that satisfies your travel urges as well as stargazing interests, Cabo it is!

Last night, Good Friday, I watched Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." I have seen this film each year since it first came out on Ash Wednesday, 2004. This is now a tradition in our household. This is such a magnificent film, and speaks to the very heart of the Christian Faith.
A few days ago, as we sat in church, I heard a priest say in his sermon, "No Good Friday, no Easter; no Easter, no salvation for mankind." Simple, but direct. That is the Christian Faith.
I, like many of you, have seen just about every Christian movie made by Hollywood. From "The Robe" to "Ben Hur," from "The Greatest Story Ever Told" to "Jesus of Nazareth." Yet no film has ever captured pure, solid, Christian belief as does Gibson's "The Passion."
Several years ago, prior to its release, I followed closely the controversy surrounding "the Passion," especially by those who had yet to even see one minute of the film. I was amazed at the outright hatred of so many, especially from Hollywood (who up until then had seen Gibson as a huge star and money maker), from liberal Jews, to liberal Christians (to include several Catholic Bishops), and, of course, from the secular media, most of who detest Christianity on any level.
Much was made of Gibson's upbringing, his Traditional Roman Catholic faith (he was raised with only the old Mass, refusing to attend the new), and of his father, who was (and is) a sedevacantist (a Catholic who believes the last true Pope was Pius XII). Gibson, for his part, has never stated that he was (or is) a sedevacantist, but he has had some very strong words for the post-Vatican II church that Roman Catholics find themselves in. He also refused to walk away from his father. (Sounds like a current politician running for President today, no?)
One of the many things I found so interesting upon the release of "The Passion" was in the reactions from Christians around the world. (How non-Christian religions viewed this film is of no interest to me.) It seems as though Evangelical and fundamentalist Protestants, along with Traditional and conservative Roman Catholics, loved this film. Yet, it was liberal Catholics, and mainstream Protestant denominations, that had the most criticism of this portrayal of Christ's Passion. The answer to this is, I believe, in so many mainstream Protestant denominations having steadily moved away from historical Christianity, where their faith, what it is, is based more on Jesus being simply a "good man" or a "good teacher" instead of God himself, the second person of the Holy Trinity. I also believe that it is the "hard sayings" of Christ regarding salvation that has effectively turned off these groups to what they all once held dear.
Not to be left out, I saw many of our older, much more liberal bishops (many who are so wrapped up in the Ecumenical movement) side with the mainstream Protestants over this film, and Gibson's portrayal of the actual Passion.
My next comment is sure to upset many with in my Church. But, to put it bluntly, I do not believe that a post-Vatican II director could have made "The Passion" as Gibson did. It was, from beginning to end, nothing but Traditional Catholicism. Only one seeped in pre-Vatican II theology, a man of the Council of Trent, could have done what Gibson did so magnificently. I'm sure many would disagree with this statement, but I hold to it.
Lastly, I can never get over the shear brilliance of the casting, the score used, and the use of Aramaic and Latin by the actors. My two favorite scenes are during Christ's walk to Golgotha. First, when Satan and Mary look at each other from opposite sides of the road. Both know who the other is. Both know what is expected of each in salvation history.
The second, and my most favorite scene, is when Mary runs to her Son, as He falls again with His cross. He looks up at her, puts His hand to her face and quotes Revelation 21:5, "Look, I make all things new!" Incredible film making by an incredible director.

Delon Wright is averaging 16 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 5.4 assists to lead the Utes. Jordan Loveridge is averaging 15.8 points and 7.7 rebounds, Brando Taylor is averaging 11 points, and Dakarai Tucker is averaging 7.8 points. As a team Utah is averaging 79.3 points and they are shooting 50.4 percent while defensively they are allowing 63.3 points and their opponents are shooting 40.3 percent. Utah is still trying to prove they belong in the Pac-12.
USC is 17-8 against the spread following a double-digit home loss, 3-7-1 against the spread in their last 11 games, and 1-4-1 against the spread in their last six home games. Utah is 11-4-1 against the spread in the Pac-12, 19-6-2 against the spread following a win, and 4-1 against the spread against a team with a losing record. The home team is 3-1-1 against the spread in the last five meetings of these two.
My free pick for this one will be on the total so please check back as soon as the totals are posted and I will update this with my free pick. My stronger play is on who will cover the spread and I will post that in the Premium Area as well as the App.

"Rex" (Malco), learn that, through a convoluted French law, they have unexpectedly inherited a vast château in the French countryside from an unknown, long-lost great-uncle, Count Jacques Granville. Anxious to claim their birthright, discover their roots, and cash in on this lucky break, the pair travels to France for what they think will be a quick and easy transaction.

For years, the police commissioner and the mayor of New York City have duked it out for publicity, credit, and power. Some have translated their stardom into success after leaving office, while others have been hung out to dry. In the battle for control of the country's most powerful police force, these high-status government officials have often chosen political expediency over public honesty. The result is a legacy of systemic corruption and cover-ups that is nothing less than shocking.
Respected journalist Leonard Levitt has covered the NYPD for New York Newsday, and the New York Post among other papers. His columns have made him persona non grata in police headquarters. In NYPD Confidential, he reveals everything he's discovered throughout his decades-long career. With amazing details of backroom deals and larger-than-life powerbrokers, Levitt lays bare the backstabbing, power-grabs, and chaotic internal investigations that have run the NYPD's reputation into the ground in the past—and the forces conspiring to do so once again.
When he covered the NYPD for Newsday, Levitt had access to all levels of the country's largest law enforcement agency, and now the Edgar winner (Conviction) catalogues dirty cops and departmental scandals. While he doesn't withhold credit where it's due (such as in the World Trade Center attacks), Levitt is most interested in the corrupt underbelly of America's largest police department. "[S]acrificing truth for image while acting in secrecy" is the department's M.O., he says. Both the 1970s Knapp Commission corruption hearings and the Mollen Commission in the 1990s underscored that dirty cops weren't confined to the lower ranks-the dishonesty reached all the way to the highest echelons. Examining some of the department's most notorious acts of violence-e.g., the torturing of Abner Louima, the shooting death of the unarmed Amadou Diallo-he has little praise for supposedly tough-on-crime mayor Giuliani. Some readers' eyes may cross at the sheer abundance of names and dates (a time line offers some help), but Levitt's account is an engrossing in-depth look at scandal inside the NYPD.

No, you will wear your joints out. Injuries will become common. Rest and recuperation is the most important part of bodybuilding.
Should a person train like a bodybuilder if they do not compete and never plan on competing?
For example there are some muscle groups out there that I would think would be silly to grow to a certain size if you didn't compete. Competitive bodybuilders know how much of a pain finding clothes that fit becomes due to their size. Many have to get jeans and so forth tailored and can't buy off the rack.

I say train to feel better about your self and live healthier. Working out is not my job it's my passion
Yeah for sure. If you want to look like a bodybuilder, then train like one. You don't have to step on stage!!
I competed in Strongman, BBing, Powerlifting and Highland Games over 20+ years. And while I loved the competition aspects of Strongman the most, I always trained off season like a bodybuilder to develop each muscle group. I feel that was the best "look" for me and fit my identity. Know what I mean?
Takes a toll on your body and joints for sure..but hey, it's what we do.

exactly... I first started training after high school to gain weight and not be skinny. Used Bodybuilding mags which sometimes contained good routines(though not very often)and got into HIT style lifting and fell in love with Pro Bodybuilding. I then wanted to look like a Pro and they no longer looked "gross" or stupid to me but instead more like a goal for a future physique. I was headed into competing but wanted more an more mass. Then fell into Powerlifting and still keep bbing style assistance in my training (or hypertrophy as its called in PL)...Unless your gifted genetically AND using gear, with a diet and training program that is 100% intensity wise your most likely just going to look like a smaller less freakish version of these guys and don't have to worry about accidentally looking like Ronnie Coleman lol... If you want to just be ripped and be decent size you still pretty much have to train like a bber and diet eat ect...That is heavy weights higher reps and tons of quality foods... Either way good luck in your training and goals!!!
I'd vote for no, don't do it. Training like a pro bodybuilder requires devotion and you need to change your lifestyle DRASTICALLY! You might not have the time to turn your life upside-down, especially if you don't want to compete. Also, the pros don't look like that all year round - they push themselves over their limits before a competition. It's simply not worth it. You can look great without going to such extremes.
If you ask me, you should work on your strength - that will do more for you than just looking pumped. You can use the principles of bodybuilding: high volume and intensity, without going to extremes - as well as the equipment they use, to achieve your own personal set of results. You can get yourself to reach your limits, but you don't need to step over that line and go overboard.
If you do decide to test your max, you shoud of course keep your safety in mind, and avoid the possibility of injury - use proper lifting belts, for example. I see rookies using them when they don't need to, and pros failing to use them when they could help them lift more. They are quite useful I've come to realize, and have quite the history.
Anyway, whatever you decide, make sure to have a trusted spotter - and that you know when to stop and how much to push your body.
Don't forget - proper sleep and diet are the mother of all recovery!
I see tons of people at the gym who have worked out for years and don't look like bodybuilders. Working out like one is only a very small portion for that "bodybuilder look".

Aamir Ali who is currenly seen in Jhilmil Sitaaron Ka Aangan Hoga on Sahara One, had started his career with a Rajshri show Woh Rehne Wali Mehlon Ki. We hear that the actor is very fond of the Bharjatyas and loves working with him.
Aamir earlier this year was seen doing an extended cameo in Hongey Judaa Na Hum and FIR in which he was seen playing a rowdy cop.
We ask Aamir about the experience of working on Jhilmil Sitaaron Ka Aangan Hoga and the actor quips, "As human beings they are lovely people and I really admire their simplicity. Plus, the dedication with which their shows are made is remarkable. Everything from the scripting and writing to the shooting is done with so much dedication."
We wonder since Kavita Kaushik is back on F.I.R., whether Aamir too will be seen on the show back again. Aamir says, "F.I.R. is a wonderful show and very close to my heart. I just love the way the show is scripted and directed and the fun atmosphere on the sets. However, my present focus is only Jhilmil Sitaroon Ka Angaan. I love my role and the character Soumya is very different and unique. It's a very family based show, so I am enjoying it all the more."
What if he is again offered F.I.R.? He says, "If offered, I will see what to do at that point of time. Right now I am enjoying Jhilmil."
wonder if our fans want a double treat of Aamir and would like to watch
him both as the lovable Soumya as well as the rowdy cop in F.I.R?
