My husband and I booked an evening tour, hoping I would be less afraid if I couldn't see how high we were. I was terrified up until the first jump. The staff was amazing. The guides, Jaime and Chuck, were not only entertaining (making us laugh the whole time) but encouraging and warm when they needed to be. It was a great time and I would recommend this to anyone. In our group, there was an experienced zipper (not sure the technical term) who had been in much higher tours in other states who still had a smile on his face the entire time.

I really enjoyed this zipline. You get to zip 9 times on different cables. You can see down town Gatlinburg and the Space needle. It is a great family adventure and i found it to be the best priced any where in a 500 mile radius. My kids did enjoy it but i found it to be a thrill and we adults need thrills. I saw a bear and meet gret people. My picture was being taken by thir staff ans i bought a CD with tons of pictures on it. Gatlinburg Zipline will have me as a repeat coustomer. Thanks Gatlinburg for the new attraction, i was tired of the 5 and dime stores. Gee Gee from Tennessee

...maybe for small kids. I am not a thrill seeker myself and this was very boring. The staff/guides were SUPER nice but for the money you have to pay...the lines are just not worth it...they are too low, pretty slow and just not exciting. I feel bad for the folks who think they are gonna get a thrill because they will be very disappointed. This should be MAYBE a $10-20 attraction.

Kilimanjaro must have been spectacular. I looked at your gallery photos and they are stunning. I'd like to know what lenses you brought with you. What is your opinion of the new Zeiss Touit vs. your 24mm Zeiss? How can I find you on ebay, I'm interested to see what your selling and the Zeiss lens you have is compelling. Like you I'm into Nikon, a D700 plus pro glass. I needed lighter gear and went with the NEX 6. I chose the 6 over Nikon 1, Olympus and Fujifilm. I'm sure the Fuji X is a fine camera but I'm happy with the 6.
Continued good shooting.
Ps what route did you take up to the summit?

The staff at Turtle Beach are excellent - Review of Turtle Beach by Elegant Hotels
“Excellent staff and Resort”
Oldbakerybart
The staff at Turtle Beach are excellent. Extremely helpful and friendly.A very relaxing holiday and all needs were quickly catered for. The food was great with plenty of choice. Bar staff were wonderful in particular Elizabeth. The 'Beach Boys' and Maradonna were very attentive and made our safety one of their main tasks. There is no doubt the management and staff at this resort are a true credit to Elegant Hotels. Especially Crystal and Julian. Thank you all from the Bartholomews.

Turtle Beach February half term
We stayed at turtle beach for the first time and it was great. There was a variety of restaurants and virtually every single one of the staff was curteous and polite and very helpful. The room was fine, probably better to get two with two older kids , but it had a great view onto the pool and sea.
the bar staff and water front staff were all excellent , we never had to wait a long time .
We'd been to antigua twice before but the staff were definitely more helpful at turtle beach. We had a few problems with issues with the toilet but they came straight away even at 4 am !!!
So can't be faulted in terms of service really - great relaxing and pampered stay.
Sue and Keith and family
Room Tip: For teenage kids you really need two rooms

Cloud Computing in the Digital Agenda

Current Commission Cloud Research

Towards a European Cloud Computing Strategy

Future Funding Opportunities

Help us!

3. The Digital Agenda for Europe http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/digital-agenda/

Adopted on 19 May 2010 and presented by Vice-President Neelie Kroes

Endorsed by the European Council on 17 June 2010, calling on all institutions to fully implement

100 Actions in 7 areas: Digital Single Market, Interoperability & Standards, Trust & Security, Broadband roll-out, Research & Innovation, Skills, ICT for Society

4. Cloud Computing in the Digital Agenda Page 24: "Europe should also build its innovative advantage in key areas through reinforced eInfrastructures and […] should develop an EU-wide strategy on 'cloud computing' notably for government and science . […] The strategy should consider economic, legal and institutional aspects." Page 25: Action: "[…] develop further eInfrastructures and establish an EU strategy for cloud computing notably for government and science ". http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/digital-agenda/
5. Current Commission Cloud Research EGI-InSPIRE: Create persistent eInfrastructure with clouds for science (EUR 25m) RESERVOIR: Develop technology for IaaS clouds (EUR 10m) VENUS-C: Develop and deploy a cloud service for research and industry with a platform based on virtualisation technologies. (EUR 4.5m) Eurocloud: Develop "servers on a chip" based on ARM processors (EUR 3.3m) StratusLab: Develop an open source cloud distribution (EUR 2.3m) EDGI: European Desktop Grid Initiative (EUR 2.15m) SIENA: Co-ordinate adoption and evolution of interoperable distributed computing infrastructures with open standards for clouds and grids (EUR 0.41m) etc.
6. Towards a European Cloud Computing Strategy

Early Orientations

Analysis of status quo: Who offers cloud services? Who demands cloud services? Why?

Identify legal and institutional barriers against more supply and demand

Focus on:

Development of the cloud computing sector in Europe

Uptake of clouds by public bodies (ultimately for cross-border use)

Creation of persistent cloud infrastructure for science

Create an integrated strategy document and execute

7. Clouds for Science and Government

Science

Build on existing European eInfrastructures (GEANT, EGI, PRACE, etc.)

Provide cloud infrastructure to handle scientific data deluge

Government

Rationalise public infrastructures, reap synergies

Open Government Data powered by cloud infrastructure

From consolidation to cooperation between public administrations

From public providers to private providers?

Cross-border cooperation?

8. Future Cloud Computing Research

Draft ICT Work programme 2011-12

Cloud Computing as part of ICT Call 8 (overall EUR 70m)

Intelligent, automatic management of cloud resources to ensure scalability

Technologies for infrastructure virtualisation and cross-platform execution for service composition across multiple, heterogenous environments

Interoperability among different clouds, portability, protection of data in cloud environments, control of data distribution and latency.

Seamless support of mobile, context-aware applications.

Architectures and technologies supporting integration of computing and networking environments; implications of Cloud Computing paradigm on networks

9. Future Cloud Computing Pilot Projects Competitiveness and Innovation Programme (CIP) Early orientations for Work programme 2011 Theme 4: ICT for improved public services (EUR 22m) Support the development of a Government Clouds initiative in Europe , assessing the added value of Clouds in the public sector and the barriers for their deployment. Objective 4.1: Support several pilots to prepare move towards clouds of/for public services. Pilots to demonstrate potential benefits of adopting new service delivery architectures to reduce cost and enable private actors to build new services.

Pseudonympha paludis - Wikipedia
A paludis brown captured by a flower crab spider
Genus: Pseudonympha
Species: P. paludis
Riley, 1938[1]
Pseudonympha magus f. paludis Riley, 1938
Pseudonympha paludis, the paludis brown, is a butterfly of the family Nymphalidae. It is found in South Africa, from the Eastern Cape to Lesotho, the eastern part of the Free State, the Drakensberg in KwaZulu-Natal and high altitude mountains in Mpumalanga.
The wingspan is 34–38 mm for males and 32–36 mm for females. Adults are on wing from December to January at high altitudes and from November to April in the hills of the Eastern Cape (with a peak in mid-summer). There is one generation per year.[2]
The larvae probably feed on Poaceae grasses.

Fusing is accomplished by directing the energy from an energy source toward the surface of the particle-supporting receiver member along a path having a major low-angle component relative to the receiver member. The particles are irradiated over a substantial portion of their surface area, with energy which is not reflected by the receiver member and with energy which has been reflected by the receiver member. A sufficient amount of energy is thus received to at least partially melt the particles at the interface between the particle and receiver member so that the particles adhere to the receiver member.
I claim: 1. Method of fusing dry resinous marking particles supported on the surface of an energy reflective receiver member by sufficiently irradiating the particles with energy from a source to at least partially melt the particles at the interface between the particles and receiver member so that the particles adhere to the receiver member, said method including the step of:directing irradiating energy toward the surface of the particles and the receiver member from opposite sides and along a path having a major low-angle component relative to the member to irradiate the particles, over a substantial portion of their surface area, with energy which has not been reflected by the member and with energy which has been reflected by the member. 2.

Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates generally to fusing of toner images in an electrostatographic process and more particularly to flash fusing toner images on a receiver member using infrared radiation directed along a path having a major low-angle component relative to such member.
In a typical electrostatographic process, a latent electrostatic charge image on a pbotoconductive member is developed by contacting the charge image with a colorant (toner) in the form of dry resinous marking particles. The particles are electrostatically charged in an opposite sense to the latent charge image and adhere to the photoconductive member to form a visible imagewise distribution of marking particles corresponding to the latent charge image. The visible imagewise distribution of particles is then transferred to the surface of a receiver member. Subsequently, the transferred particles are fixed (fused) to the receiver member. The fusing operation is accomplished by application of energy (such as heat and/or pressure) or solvent vapor to the particles and the member. The energy, or solvent vapor, at least partially melts the toner particles so that the melted portion adheres to the surface of the member. For example, when the receiver member is a sheet of paper, the melted portion is imbibed into the surface fibers of the sheet. Thus when the particles re-solidify, they are fixed to the sheet.
One method of fusing the marking particles involves directing a burst of radiant energy onto the particles and receiver member; see for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,205,220 issued May 27, 1980, in the name of O'Brien and assigned to a common assignee. This method, referred to as flash fusing, has had limited commercial application because different energy levels have heretofore been required to adequately fix line images and large area images, making the simultaneous fixing of line and large area images difficult. The apparent reason for needing different energy levels is that the source of radiant energy, at a particular energy level below the level which burns the receiver member, is arranged to direct energy normal to the receiver member. The energy striking the upper portion of marking particle surfaces on the receiver member, is absorbed by the particles but the remainder is reflected or refracted into the environs. A large solid area of particles accumulates sufficient radiant energy from direct and refracted radiation to melt the particles in the solid area. However, small area (line) images or single particles only accumulate direct radiation since the reflected and refracted radiation travels away from the area or particle and is dissapated. Thus, while the top of a particle melts the part in contact with the member does not. Heat loss due to convection cooling at the interface between the particle and the receiver member does not allow sufficient melting of the particle for the particle to adhere to the surface of the receiver member.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention is directed to apparatus and method for fusing both small and large image areas of dry resinous marking particles supported on the surface of a receiver member, by irradiating the particles with energy to at least partially melt the particles at the interface between the particle and receiver member. Fusing according to this invention is accomplished by directing the energy from an energy source toward the surface of the particle-supporting receiver member along a path having a major low-angle component relative to the receiver member. The particles are irradiated, over a substantial portion of their surface area, with energy which is not reflected by the receiver member and with energy which has been reflected by the receiver member. A sufficient amount of energy is thus received to at least partially melt the particles at the interface between the particle and receiver member so that the particles adhere to the receiver member. In another aspect of this invention, the energy source is at least one lamp which emits infrared energy. In still another aspect of this invention the energy source includes elongate parallel flash lamps which emit energy having wavelengths in the infrared range.

FIG. 3 is a schematic side elevational view of fusing a dry resinous marking particle according to this invention by application of radiant energy directed along a path having a major low-angle component relative to the particle-supporting receiver member.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT As best shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the prior art flash fusing methods have been employed in an electrostatographic process for fusing images formed of dry resinous marking particles on the surface of a receiver member such as a paper sheet, an energy source is located to direct radiant energy 10 substantially normal to the receiver member 12. As a result only the top portion of marking particles 14 (shown on a relatively enlarged scale) are directly irradiated. Of the radiant energy striking the particles 14, some (10a) is reflected by the particles, some (10b) is refracted by (deflected on passage through) the particles, and some (10c) is absorbed in the particles to produce heat. The particles 14 are typically pigmented thermoplastic resin such as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,893,935, issued July 8, 1975 in the name of Jadwin et al. The portion of the energy producing heat causes at least partial melting of the particles. When the melting occurs at the interface between the particles and receiver member interface, the melted particles adhere to the surface of the receiver member and become fixed to the member when the particles cool and re-solidify.
When the image to be fused is comprised of many particles covering a substantially large area on the surface of the receiver member, as for example in FIG. 2, some of the reflected and refracted (scattered) energy may strike other adjacent particles to be absorbed to produce heat; the scattered energy not striking any particles is not available for heat production. As is apparent from FIG. 1 however, with a single marking particle (or a relatively small distribution of particles, as would be the case in an image of line copy), only that portion of the normal radiant energy directly striking the particle is absorbed to produce heat. In fact, the upper segment of the particle forms a shadow area, designated by the numeral 16, over the lower segment of the particle so that the lower segment does not receive direct radiant energy. Consequently, initial heating occurs only over the upper segment of the particle. Due to convection cooling in the vicinity of the interface 18 between the particle and the receiver member 12, the particle may not melt sufficiently for the particle to adhere to the surface of the receiver member.
Flash fusing according to this invention, is accomplished as depicted in FIG. 3, the dry resinous marking particle 14 being shown on a relatively enlarged scale. Radiant energy 20 is directed toward the surface of the particle-supporting receiver member 12 along a path having a major low-angle component relative to the member designated generally by the angle θ. The receiver member 12 is typically a sheet of paper which reflects radiant energy. The radiant energy preferaby is supplied by elongate parallel flash lamps 22, emitting energy in at least the infrared range, which readily converts to heat within the particles. For example, the lamps 22 may be Xenon flash lamps (emitted energy includes wavelengths in the infrared range). The lamps are electrically connected through a switch S to a power supply P of a magnitude in the range of 300 to 2400 joules (in some embodiments the range of 600 to 1230 joules has been shown particularly effective). A control C selectively closes the switch S for a time duration to establish a flash pulse width of 0.125 to 2000 msec (in some embodiments the range of 1.2 to 13.7 msec has been shown particularly effective). The lamps are positioned within respective elliptical reflectors 24, which are supported relative to the plane of the receiver member so that the major low-angle path component angle θ of the radiant energy is between 15� and 45� relative to the receiver member. Thus, in addition to the radiant energy directly striking the particle, some of the energy (20 r) striking the receiver member is reflected by the member to strike the particle. Of course some parallel radiation (20 r1) is reflected from the member at different angles because of surface irregularities of the member. Therefore, a greater percentage of the surface area of the particle is irradiated. Alternatively, if the energy source is supported relative to the plane of the receiver member so that the major path component is not at a low angle with respect to the member, mirrors could be provided to redirect (reflect) the radiant energy at the member with the major low-angle path component relative to the member.
While reflection and refraction of some of the radiant energy incident to the particle occurs in the same proportions as before, more radiant energy strikes the particle and there is therefore a correspondingly greater percentage of energy available to be absorbed to produce heat. Of course, the more energy absorbed by the particle to produce heat, the more complete its melting at the interface between the particle and receiver member and more readily the particle adheres to the receiver member. This is true, of course, as long as the amount of radiation is kept below the level at which the particle vaporizes or the member burns. Although the description relative to FIG. 3 speaks of fusing a single marking particle, because radiant energy is directed toward the surface of the receiver member, a similar increased proportion of the radiant energy is also available to be absorbed to produce heat for fusing spaced particles or for fusing at the edges of large image area particle groups. The main body of particles in the large image area groups receives sufficient direct and scattered radiant energy for adequate fusing as described above with reference to the prior art methods. Accordingly, a radiation source of one energy level provides adequate fusing of both single marking particles and large image area particle groups.
