安娜的地方已经超过了我们的预期。伟大的位置!好安静的街区,但只有几分钟远离一切。这个地方是超级干净,很宽敞,它甚至有一个健身室和一个儿童游乐区。厨房里储备充足和装备,所有的家电和厨具看起来全新的。在后院的大空间是真棒!这将是伟大的烧烤,虽然我们没有得到周围做这个的时间。与安娜通信是容易的,她是一个伟大的主持人,十分宽松。我的父母和我真的很喜欢我们的住宿,下次一定会再来的区域。
Anna is such a great host. She was always ready to help and very responsive in replying to my questions and requests. I'd definitely try to stay in her place again next time I visit Diamond Bar. Her place was super super clean and very organized. Great location and great views. After staying there for ten days, it was really hard to leave the place :) Anna's place felt like my home. Great Great Great experience and definitely recommended!!

Anna was very pleasant and helpful. The house was very clean and in a quite neighborhood. Shopping and dinning within a mile from the home. Great place to stay!
Anna was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Communication was fantastic and unfortunately we did not get to meet her this stay. The home was one of the best Airbnb stays that we have experienced. It was so clean from top to bottom and such a gorgeous property. The kitchen was so beautiful and had anything and everything you could ever need to cook a large meal. There is even a rice cooker that doubled as a Crock-Pot and food steamer that was brand new! The rooms are very large and everything in the home is brand new. The washer and dryer are in the garage. Outdoor lovers will be so thrilled with the backyard as we were. We have a car but ended up walking to the store because the neighborhood was so nice and it was less than one mile away. Restaurants, fast food are so close and the shopping centers have so many different little stores the home truly is in a prime location. Overall, the host Anna and her home exceed a 10/10. I would recommend this home to anyone and you will be very happy with your choice. Thank you Anna, we are so grateful to you.

Minnie was great from the beginning. She sent the wifi password and the house's code before our arrival. Once there we had the fridge full. The house was impecable, very clean and stocked with towels, toilet paper and soap/shampoo. The only bad thing is that we expected a barbecue as shown in the pictures but it wasn't there. Overall it was a great experience! The neighborhood is very nice and quiet and very nice located!

Ara and Heddy's house is beautiful, spacious, clean and very comfortable. We (family of 4) spent a long weekend there, and bad weather forced us inside. The house was roomy and well-suited for relaxing inside. The house and decor are beautiful and it is in a nice neighborhood. If the weather had been nicer, the back patio would've probably been a nice place to chill. Upon arriving at check-in, Ara and Heddy met me at the house and gave me a complete walk-through. They explained everything I needed to know and answered all of my questions (of which there were very few because Ara and Heddy already thought of everything). They even provided some bottled water for us. Both Ara and Heddy were very helpful and kind at check-in and every time I contacted them. The beds were very comfortable and the sheets soft and clean. The bathrooms were set up with lots of towels and were also very clean. The kitchen had lots of appliances that we used, like a water kettle, coffee maker (drip and Keurig), toaster, microwave and dishwasher. There was also a very nice 5-burner gas range but we did not have a chance to use it. There are large TVs in several rooms and plenty of places to sit and lounge. In general the house is very clean and seems recently updated and painted. During our stay we ran into a couple of unpredictable issues, but Ara and Heddy were extremely responsive and quickly resolved our issues. I am thankful that they were such wonderful and helpful hosts. We had a wonderful time in this house and will definitely be considering staying here again. Thanks to Ara and Heddy to being excellent hosts!
我们有一个伟大的家庭团聚和住宿。 ARA和Heddy被超级容纳任何东西我们问他们提供给我们。我们问他们是否有一个烧烤和,因为他们没有,他们说干就干,买了一台。我们有一个孩子与我们和他们买婴儿床。房子看起来完全一样的图片,一切都处于工作状态。
The home was absolutely amazing. We had a group of 12, the house was definitely able to accommodate us all. It truly felt like home away from home for us!

"White is Bright"...and other stories | pyoo wata
20-minute documentary on "shadeism" below. H/T Clutch.
Shadeism on Vimeo.
I feel like I should be more bothered by this topic, but for some reason, I'm sort off "meh" towards it, and have been so for most of my life. My first encounter with shadeism came when I was five, attending school in Massachusetts and a girl of biracial heritage told me that I could not play with her and her white friends because I was simply too dark. At the time, I could care less, because there were more than enough "dark" classmates to play with (especially this adorable Rasta child, of whom I was completely enamoured with - and of course, like any five year old girl, I displayed my affection by terrorizing him at the playground - I was a bit of a bully back then. So he was my first crush, my second was Michael Jackson...don't judge). It was only when I was older that I realized it was a pathology. But even now, when I encounter such instances of black-on-black discrimination, it hardly fazes me. Like for example, an older relative of mine expressed a desire for her children to wed men of other races in order that they may sire beautiful children (but beyond that, she also has some gripes towards Igbo men, which receives a bit of a "Kanye Shrug" from my end). On another occasion a family friend was lamenting that the others are reticent to discipline their mixed-race four-year-old because of the colour of his skin. Of course, the Nnewi man was not having it, and half-stated/half asked, "This child cannot be more beautiful than me?" Yeah...side eye....not at the instance of shadeism...but rather at the sheer ridiculousness of the question. (Oh, and I'm assuming/hoping that most of my extended family is not aware of my blogging exploits...an aunt was worried that I may get arrested for my opinions, or worse still, not find a husband, because of it. Had to reassure her that it wasn't that serious, yet).
I feel like I should be more aggrieved towards such statements in the same way that I am towards racism. I find that among the African American community, individuals are much more sensitive towards shadeism, while in other communities, such as those represented in this film, expressing a preference for lighter-coloured children has long been normalized.
But, beyond the instances I just mentioned, I feel that overt shadeism may not be as pervasive in the Nigerian community. From my limited personal experience, we tend to denigrate those with blotchy tell-tale signs of chronic skin bleaching, and we extol darker- skinned actresses like Genevieve or Clems Ohameze, who in his day, was known as "black beauty." I think there is an element of "Nigerian pride," which, perhaps in this day and age, trumps the need to adhere to Eurocentric ideal of lighter-skinned beauty. Or perhaps, which is more likely the case, I am trapped in my own, "Black is (unquestionably, regardless the shade) beautiful" bubble.
There are some other bloggers who covered in relation to this film (simply Google "shadeism") - but I have yet to see a Nigerian blogpost on the topic. Though, I have seen a number of them on the politics of hair - which at this point in my life gets a "meh" from me as well.

Guilty as charged - your last sentence!
authorsoundsbetterthanwriter said...:
Hmm, funny you should mention Genevieve. I've never met a fine dark skinned girl who has wanted to get lighter but I've met many yellow girls who want to look like Genevieve. Fineness conquers all colour prejudices it seems.:)
hmm, pyoo wata, thats great. come to think of it, when last did you visit nigeria? nneoma, that is a very fine name. do you know how to speak igbo, i mean real igbo, email me, at ugowhite@live.co.uk, I am an igbo living in nigeria and i think i like your bloc, though to some extent. and i think i am more mature than you ...lol think about it.
ps: my regards to your mum, tell her i need to hear some stories to tell to my kids, they love stories, u know.
Lol! I think it was then that Nigerians were into the-fairer-the-better. Now, not so much oh. I first read about Shadeism in a short excerpt about Jamaica. It's practiced a lot there- the fairer you are the more class you have, even your family members give you that respect. And they actively seek out fairer people to marry.
It's quite fascinating cause i couldn't care less either.

December 27, 2012 – two-edged sword
December 27, 2012 by kausap
Genesis 35:1-4; 35: 9-12
Jacob led a life of constant wrestling with God. It was a life filled with schemes that often met his desires by hook or by crook. By the time Jacob yielded to God completely, he had been through many agonizing experiences that brought him sorrow and depression. He had lost his wife Rachel, and his daughter Dina was raped. His other sons pillaged and terrorized a community. In his old age, his sorrow was great because of a long rift from his brother Esau whom he tricked to get Isaac’s blessing.
Despite the life he led, God blessed him, and changed his name to Israel, which means, “Triumphant with God.” This name change effectively erased his own estimate of himself. From God’s point of view, the covenant with Abraham will not be broken. Jacob is blessed because His God is not any other god or himself, but the God of his fathers Abraham and Isaac. This is evident in his acknowledgement that in all his distress God never left him. Thus in Paddam Aram – he builds another altar to mark this milestone in his faith journey. God changing his name to Israel fortifies the covenant, extending to him the blessings due to Abraham’s descendants.
In acknowledging God to be His ever present companion “in the way I went”, Jacob witnessed to God’s faithfulness, which did not depend on his good acts or right conduct. God was faithful to him because that is God’s character. It is who God is. God is faithful.
How many times have I failed, or refused, or forgotten to build those altars of praise, thanksgiving, and worship that should have commemorated His grace, goodness and glory? Yet God is faithful.
Today, I praise God for every gift of peace and gladness in my heart; for every sadness that led me to Him; for every twenty-four hours of breath and health; for every problem which made me strong; for every failure which humbled me; for every timely and exact provision; for his shield and protection against evil and man’s cruel intentions; for every precious moment of the living Word which is my guide and strength; and for the imperfections of family, friends, community and country which make me kneel before Him in intercession.
Today, I am building an altar of praise through this expressed witness of thanksgiving. As I do so, I will remember those milestones in my faith journey and thank God for my blessings. This is indeed a Merry Christmas, and my golden year, a Happy New Year.

BortzArt: "Flash - Rainbow Trout"
"Flash - Rainbow Trout"
I thought it might be interesting to post some progress shots of my recent "Flash - Rainbow Trout" painting. Above, the preliminary block-in stage helps to establish the large shapes. The paint is pretty thin at this point and I work fast with a large brush. You can see some of the white charcoal outlines around the trout. I wanted to get the drawing correct on this important element at the very beginning. The colors seem pretty wild here and I was a bit concerned with how they would all fit together in the end.
In this image, I've refined the trout quite a bit. It's not quite where it needs to be, but at least it looks like a fish! I've also started to push the dark shape below the trout's head. It's a major element in the painting and the finished product will lean heavily on how well this area is handled.
Now things are really starting to take shape and it's starting to have an "underwater" feel. I've refined the mossy rocks on the bottom with rather large blobs of paint. Close up, the colors seem a bit ridiculous, but in the overall context of the painting, they're beginning to work. The blue swath of color behind the trout helps to give the image some depth.
More refinement and just about done. At this point, I need to set the painting aside for a few days. The rocks on the bottom are feeling a little overworked and I'm not happy with the transition between that blue swath in the middle and the rocks. That needs a bit of attention. Also, the slashes of light along the trout's body need some work. They're close, but not quite believable enough for my liking. The underside of the water's surface, on the other hand, is just about dead on.
"Flash - Rainbow Trout" 15x15 acrylic
FINISHED! I went back in with bigger brushes and simplified many of the shapes in the stream bed. I repainted nearly the entire trout to get the slashes of light to read properly and still have the trout recognizable as a rainbow. Now it's ready for a frame and the McKeever Show in September!

Angry Black Mom: Is It Just Me? | Boy Mom Blog
When Trayvon was killed, African-Americans were so stunned by the audacity of it all, we wore hoodies, bought Skittles and rallied for weeks until Zimmerman was arrested. With the death of Jordan, I’m hard-pressed to find much conversation on the matter. And now Zimmerman is making money off of his signature to support his legal defense. His signature.
There’s just no stock or value in the lives of our young Black boys and I’m disgusted.
These were two boys still matriculating through high school, when the graduation rate for African-American males is only 52% . Two boys whose moms were doing the best they could to raise their sons – like I am. They probably struggled to potty train them (like I have), kissed their cheeks (like I do), found a way to pay for sports gear (like I have), and poured into them dreams and aspirations to do something with their lives (like I try to).
But how are we supposed to protect our Black sons? Do you tell them things, like how to act around strange white men – say yes sir and no sir. Look them in the eye. Don’t look them in the eye. Call 911, don’t talk back … because a law allows crazy white men to own guns and shoot you in self-defense of their own ignorance.
Black boys kill Black boys too. I still grieve for Bobby Douglas who was senselessly beaten to death by other Black boys – one of whom will now spend the rest of his life in prison.
Recently, there was a show that aired on TV One (‘where Black life unfolds’) called Save My Son that cast a positive image on the value of young Black males. Educator and author, Dr. Steve Perry reached out to Black boys who had fallen through the cracks and were making bad, life-impacting decisions that could end their life and the lives of others. Yet, Dr. Perry – along with athletes, entertainers, and community volunteers – gave these boys options. He gave them LIFE.
Now, the life of this movement is in danger of being snuffed out. I guess riveting, compelling, REAL Black family drama that may SAVE our sons just doesn’t sell as much as reality shows about glorified rappers with lyrics talking about killing our sons. That’s confusing.
So, where does that leave moms of Black boys? As a Black mom to two sons, what can I do?
My husband and I will continue to pray our boys, invest in them, sacrifice for them and guide them the best we can.
I’ll lobby to alleviate the Stand Your Ground law.
I’ll sign a petition to save – Save My Son.
I’ll do whatever work in the community I can.
However, when my boys become teenagers and walk the streets of their own neighborhood or play music at a convenience store, they’ll be viewed as men. And someone – perhaps even another father – will look at my child and not see the lifelong investment and value. And that someone may even have a gun and governance that would justify him using that gun.
And that makes me an angry Black mom.

Good post, Angry Black Mom!
No ma’am…It is not you.
The SYG law puts young black kids lives in danger.It’s an excuse to kill and get away it.
It needs to be GONE!
Michael Vick went to prison for killing a dog but we stood in horror as Trayvon Martin was gunned down carrying only candy and a drink and the murdering slug was allowed to go home and roam the streets freely for 44 days. If it wasn’t for the national outcry, George Zimmerman would not have been charged. I can hardly wait until he is tried, convicted and sentenced to prison for his failed miserable life.
Protesting The Killing of Trayvon Martin
Thanks for the comments – it’s piercing when you compare it to Michael Vick – ouch! I hadn’t thought about it like that but you’re right. Whew! Great video – I feel like we’ve got to keep this issue alive on social media.
I really like your post and will be following your blog. As the mother of a son, although mine is 25, I feel your pain. While it saddens me that people seem to value a dog’s life more than that of a black boy, it also pisses me off. I was so heartbroken and ticked off in fact I turned down an opportunity to appear on a Huffington Post webcast to speak on the situation. The pain of yet another black boy gunned down for no other reason than existing was too much to orally articulate. All we can do is what we can do to shed light on this dire situation.
Thank you soo much for your comment! You know when Trayvon Martin was killed, I couldn’t even write my feelings about it – so I understand. But when it happened again – I had to say something. It literally takes my breath away. And now I think it’s up to us to keep this alive using social media and whatever other means. We can’t let this die. Thanks again!
I hear so many say that “race” isn’t an issue any more. I feel this is naive and dangerous. If we don’t acknowledge that there are people who are dangerous and have little care about these young men. They only see their color and ignorance.
As a teacher, I sometimes feel lost for my boys. There are a few in particular that seem to be falling through the cracks. The ones that I’m speaking of don’t have loving parents guiding them. They live in neighborhoods where the easy way seems to be the only way. It is heartbreaking. I try to plant seeds. I pray for them often. I try to speak as many encouraging and positive words in their lives as I can. But I absolutely cannot protect them from the ignorance that is in this world. And that is devastating to me.
Thank you for the comment! I hate this helpless feeling the most! I figure the least we can do is to keep this issue alive in social media and wherever else. Thanks for doing what you can as a teacher! What grade do you teach? Have you seen Save My Son? It’s interesting to see how some boys don’t value their own lives either?
I’m going to post your article far and wide. I’ve already tweeted it and will repeat it. We have to keep shining the light on this issue.
Thank you!!! That is great! I agree – we have to keep talking about it.
Save my future sons.
It sad that my mom had to teach my brother how to act around whites. Say yes sir, no sir, in a case of hostility just walk away, never walk in nobody yard. Appreciate your post.
Yes it is sad – it bothers me that I guess I’ll have to do the same… and it hadn’t occurred to me till this year that I would have to. Thank you much!!
I came across your post and it really spoke to me. I am a mother of two Black sons myself. One is 7 and the other 15 months. I do a lot of praying for them.
Thanks for your comment – it means a lot!
As a Mother of a boy, these stories are what keep me up at night and spawn long talks between me and my husband.
All I can do is pray. It sometimes pisses me off when people meet my son and say how cute/smart/adorable he is. Because I think 10-15 years from now if he’s walking down the street with his friends you’ll probably cross to avoid him or clutch your purse.
He’s the same boy my husband and I are raising to be a responsible little boy.
But ignorance is sooo *bleeping* pervasive that it scares the crap out of me.
I’m angry too. Thanks for writing this and being a voice for us.
Joyce! Thank you! Yes – it is scary that he’ll be viewed as a man and even be confronted by MEN when he is still a scared, growing child on the inside. It’s not a fair fight! And it makes me angry that we have to be scared. Thanks for the comment and I can’t wait to hook up with you tomorrow!
I have 2 sons. When they got their drivers license, we had the talk on how to behave IF ever stopped by the police. I pounded it into their heads because I was frightened beyond description. As a mother of black boys, I am tired of living in fear.
4. Please use Yes sir & No sir
For young black boys this could mean the difference between life or death.
I’m an angry white mom. The fact that in 2012, race is ever, EVER an issue, is deplorable. My heart hurts for you, and every mom, who not only have to worry about the myriad of things we moms worry about, but also the fact that your kids’ melanin concentration – because that’s what brings on those judgments, a silly molecule in one’s skin – could put them in danger. I also hope that kids who are being taught how to “act around whites” are also being taught that it isn’t our being white that makes us dangerous, it’s their being ignorant, hateful people. I love this post. Keep telling it like it is.
Hello! Thanks for the comment and your encouragement! And the men who shot these boys are not even that old either. I really appreciate you commenting.
The sad part is, even taking the social inequities into account, most populations (considered a traditional minority…or not) can, and are, fighting similar fights.
This is the sad part of the downward spiral of humanity and respect.
You write, “There’s just no stock or value in the lives of our young Black boys and I’m disgusted.”
The problem at hand isn’t just the stock of young Black boys, the issue is a completely neglect of respect for those that are perceived as different, misunderstood, overlooked, a majority, a minority, White, Latino, and the list goes on.
When we start to function from an ethnorelative perspective the world immediately becomes a better place.
I totally get the issue…and I completely agree.
But – it is only a short-sited view of the problem (although short-sited may be much easier to solve than the bigger issue at hand)..and until we begin to recognize the global short, crap and injustice and overall complete disregard for people and individuals will continue on a perpetuate the downward spiral of reality.
Hello! Thank you for stopping by and sharing… it is a global issue on some levels… but it’s also very different and not as fixable as you would think although I wish it were. Thanks again!
And somewhat sad that you think that it isn’t fixable. Perhaps that is part of the problem…too many people like you think that problems don’t have solutions.
I’d agree that there is no “easy” solution…but there absolutely are solutions. They take work, investment, time, resources and a whole heck of a lot of flexibility and open-mindedness and a change in world view. It is totally possible – it has happened before. And perhaps you can’t revitalize the world…but if you start small and start revitalizing someone’s world…you have, indeed, started the ripple that can make this problem start to diminish.
But – hey…who am I?

Breaking News: New Music Rick Ross “Free Mason” Ft. Jay-Z & John Legend [With Audio]
The Boss Ricky Rozay linked up with the big homie Jay-Z for “Free Mason,” with John Legend on the hook. I have to admit that this record goes hard. The track is featured on Ross’ forthcoming LP Teflon Don, in stores and online July 20th. Peep what Jay-Z Said.
“N***as couldn’t do nothing with me, they put the devil on me. I would have preferred n***as squeeze the metal on me/ Rumors of Lucifer, I don’t know who to trust/ The whole world wants my demise, turn the music up.”-Jay-Z “Free Mason”
“Hear me clearly if y’all nig%as fear me, just say y’all fear me/ F**k all these fairy tales/ Go to hell, this is God engineering/ This is a hail mary pass ya’ll interfering”-Jay-Z “Free Mason”
“He without sin shall cast the first stone so check ya’ll look in the mirror and double check ya’ll parents”-Jay-Z “Free Mason”
I said I was amazing/ Not that I’m a Mason” –Jay-Z “Free Mason“
I heard Ross’ album in its entirety and it’s a f**king classic. It’s one of the hottest records I heard since Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3.

peter zmijewski's blog: People Are Strange,So Test Your PPC Ads
To achieve the highest click-through rates for your PPC adverts, you need to ensure that your ad copy is laser-targeted and then conduct more testing than a Korean nuclear scientist. And then, once you have finished testing, you need to test some more.
You see, we are all smarter than Einstein’s underwear, but we actually have no idea which ads will really perform until we have tested them. I have lost count of the times I have been shocked that the ad I thought would underperform blasted the CTR’s of the other ads out of the water. This is because, in the words of Mr Jim Morrison, ‘People Are Strange’.
How Do I Test My PPC Ads?
I always run 4 ads per adgroup (making sure that with Adwords, your campaign settings are set to ‘rotate’ and not ‘optimise’), initially to find the best performing of the 4 and then to use that ad as my ‘control ad’.
Then, I duplicate the control ad another 2 times so that 3 of the 4 ads being rotated are my control ad, with one new ad being tested. I do this because if the new ad being tested bombs, it will only account for one quarter of impressions. I then replace the new ad and keep testing. Once a new ad out-performs my control ad, that ad becomes the control ad. Then, I continue to do this happily ever after.
You will be amazed at how well this works, and how it gradually increases your adgroups CTR.
If you aren’t doing this or something similar, you are a dunderhead, but I don’t mind because it leaves higher click-through rates for the rest of us.

Flake silver powders with chemisorbed monolayer of dispersant
US 4273583 A
Flake silver powders which have a chemisorbed monolayer of organic dispersing agent such as oleic acid on the surfaces and process for their preparation are provided. Such silver powders can be formulated into thick film pastes at above 85% solids levels at relatively low viscosities. Pastes so obtained, when printed and fired, result in films of excellent conductive efficiency.
1. A flake silver powder consisting essentially of silver particles having at least a partial chemisorbed monolayer of hydrophobic organic dispersing agent on the particle surfaces wherein said dispersing agent contains at least one olefinic unsaturation and at least one carboxylic acid group and wherein said dispersing agent comprises 0.2-0.5% by weight of the powder.
2. The flake silver powder of claim 1 wherein said monolayer covers at least two-thirds of the particle surfaces.
3. The flake silver powder of claim 2 wherein said dispersing agent forms a substantially complete monolayer on the particle surfaces.
4. The flake silver powder of claim 1 wherein said dispersing agent is selected from the group consisting of oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid.
5. The flake silver powder of claim 4 wherein said dispersing agent is oleic acid.
6. A flake silver powder consisting essentially of silver particles having a substantially complete monolayer of oleic acid chemisorbed on the particle surfaces.
This invention relates to silver powders and more particularly to flake silver powders having oleic acid monolayer chemisorbed on the surface.
Thick film silver compositions based on silver powders of various morphologies are old in the art and have been part of commerce for a long time.
Non-flake silver powders such as irregularly shaped or spherical silver powders have been prepared in the past but such powders, when formulated, printed and fired, result in relatively low electrical conductive efficiency. Non-flake silver powders have also been formulated in the presence of oleic acid, but conductive efficiency was not improved.
Conventional flake silver powders when formulated at above 85% solids loading often show poor screen printing characteristics because of excessive viscosity.
Addition of oleic acid during the formulation of these flake silver powders affords some improvement in the solids loading/viscosity relationship. Practically useful viscosity improvements are achieved when a substantial portion of the flake silver powder is replaced by non-flake powder. Such a replacement, however, seriously impairs conductive efficiency.
There is a need in the electronic and automotive industries for silver powder which can be formulated into pastes at high (>85%) solids loading without such pastes reaching viscosities resulting in poor screen printing characteristics. At the same time it is necessary that the excellent electrical conductive efficiency inherent in flake silver powders be maintained.
The flake silver powder of this invention consists essentially of silver particles of flake morphology having at least a partial chemisorbed monolayer of hydrophobic organic dispersing agent such as oleic acid on the particle surfaces, wherein the dispersing agent contains at least one olefinic unsaturation and at least one carboxylic acid group.
The process for preparing the flake silver powder of this invention comprises the steps of:
(A) bead-milling precipitated silver powder in a milling medium such as water in the presence of sufficient organic dispersing agent containing at least one olefinic unsaturation and at least one carboxylic acid group to form a monolayer on at least two-thirds of the particle surfaces; and
(B) separating the water and the beads from the resultant flake silver particles.
The flake silver powders of this invention are silver particles having a substantially complete monolayer of an organic dispersing agent chemisorbed on the particle surfaces. By substantially complete is meant a surface coverage sufficient to provide acceptable viscosities in the formulated pastes at high, i.e. above 85% by weight of the paste, solids levels. It has been found that when at least two-thirds of the particle surfaces have a chemisorbed monolayer of the dispersing agent, silver-based pastes of excellent screen-printing characteristics result. By monolayer is meant a mono-molecular layer of the dispersing agent.
By flake morphology is meant a silver powder whose predominant shape is flake as determined by scanning electron microscopy.
Generally, at least approximately 0.2% by weight of dispersing agent is required, based on the weight of the silver powder plus dispersing agent, for the formation of the required monolayer. Preferably, 0.2-0.5% by weight of dispersing agent is utilized. Above 1.5%, there is no additional beneficial effect observed. When the dispersing agent is oleic acid, 0.3% by weight of this material is most preferred.
The flake silver powders of this invention are prepared from irregularly shaped precipitated silver powders by bead-milling. Silver powder precipitation is well known and such powders are articles of commerce. A variety of such precursor powders is available which can be utilized in the inventive process. For example, silver powders having a solids content of 99.9%, bulk density range of 0.8-1.2 g/cm3 (determined by a commercial volumeter), surface area range of 0.70-1.40 m2 /g (determined by BET Quantachrome Monosorb), and particle size range of 1.0-1.5 microns (ASTM B-330-65) and powders having a solids content range of 99.72-100%, bulk density of 1.2 g/cm3, surface area range of 0.95-1.65 m2 /g, and a particle size range of 1-4 microns, among others, are useful in producing the flake silver powders.
Bead-milling for the preparation of the flake silver powders is carried out in conventional milling equipment such as a ceramic milling jar utilizing glass beads of various diameters such as 3 mm or 6 mm. Milling time can also vary but usually a period between 48 and 66 hours has been found to be adequate. During this process the irregularly shaped precursor powder is converted to a flake morphology, its average particle sized is reduced, and its particle size distribution is altered.
A measure of number average particle size is the value of the equivalent spherical diameter (ESD) at the 50% cummulative mass percent point. This can be calculated from particle size distribution curves determined by x-ray sedimentation (Sedigraph 5000D particle size analyzer, Micromeritics Corporation, Norcross, Ga.). These values are shown below for two different precursor powders and the flake silver powders resulting from the process of this invention:
______________________________________ESD (at 50% point, μm)Precursor Powder  Flake Powder______________________________________3.3               2.2-2.48                 4.6-4.8______________________________________
Water is generally employed as the milling medium and, since the product of the milling process, the flake silver powders with the chemisorbed monolayer of a hydrophobic dispersing agent on their surfaces, is not wet by the water, it can be conveniently separated from the silver-bead mixture. Draining or pumping of the water are effective means of isolating the solid materials.
The beads can be readily separated from the product silver by screening, the beads remaining on a coarse screen. The wet silver can then be air dried at 25°-110° C. and preferably at 70°-80° C. prior to final screening.
The sequence of the separating steps is not critical. The beads can be separated first followed by the separation of the water from the product silver.
The dispersing agent chemisorbed on the surfaces of the flake silver powders of this invention is introduced into the milling equipment prior to the bead-milling procedure. These dispersing agents are organic hydrophobic materials and contain at least two functional groups: at least one of each of olefinic unsaturation and carboxylic acid group.
It has been found unexpectedly, that in absence of either one of the above named groups such as with conventionally utilized dispersants in this art, for example, stearic acid and sodium stearate, no flake silver powders having the desired properties are obtained.
Although the exact mechanism of the chemisorption process is not known, it is believed that the double bond in such agents as oleic acid (cis-9-octadecenoic acid) interacts with the silver particle surface to form a strong chemisorptive bond. This allows the carboxylic group to remain substantially unassociated with the silver. As a result, the flake silvers of this invention have high dispersibility during formulation allowing high solids levels and sufficient hydrophobicity to prevent such wetting by water as would lead to water dispersibility. It was found that when the pH of oleic acid-treated flake silver powder was raised with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the powder became water dispersible because of the diminished hydrophobicity. Reacidification restored the desired hydrophobic properties.
When stearic acid (octadecanoic acid), having no double bonds in its structure, was utilized chemisorption could only occur at the carboxylic sites and the stearic acid could be readily removed from the silver surface by solvent extraction.
In a general selection procedure for useful dispersing agents, tests for dispersibility (viscosity versus solids levels in pastes) and conductive efficiency can be utilized. These, however, require more time than measurements of such physical properties of the product powders as bulk density, particle size and shape. These physical properties are also an effective measure of dispersing agent usefulness. When silver oleate, silver stearate, stearic acid, silver acetate, and β-terpineol were used as dispersing agents, the product silver powders did not have the flake morphology necessary for good conductive efficiency. When soya lecithin was used, irregular silver powder resulted in spite of the fact that it contains some oleic moeities and free acid functionality. It is believed that at the 0.3% level there was insufficient olefinic and acid functionality.
Among useful dispersing agents are oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid.
The dispersing agents are quantitatively chemisorbed of the surface of the silver particles to form a mono-molecular layer during the process of this invention and any excess dispersing agent is removable by methanol extraction.
When precursor silver powder is treated with excess (above approximately 0.3% by weight) oleic acid and bead-milled and the isolated powder is washed with methanol, a solids determination at 750° C. shows that only approximately 0.3-0.5% oleic acid remains adsorbed on the particle surfaces. In absence of the methanol washing step, substantially all of the charged oleic acid remains on the silver although not all of it chemisorbed in a monolayer.
The chemisorbed dispersing agent cannot readily be removed. A 66-hour methanol extraction in a Soxhlet extractor removed only approximately 17% by weight of the adsorbed oleic acid (0.3%, see above, leaving approximately 0.24%). The amount remaining corresponds, within experimental error, to the amount calculated as being necessary for monolayer formation. When adsorbed on TiO2, oleic acid (molecular weight: 281) is known to cover a 20 A2 surface area [W. D. Arkins, Journal of the American Chemical Society, 53, 2804 (1931)]. Assuming the same surface coverage by oleic acid on silver, one can calculate the weight of oleic acid in a mono-molecular layer on the surface of 100 grams of silver. Using a particular lot of flake silver powder of this invention, having a surface area of 0.67 m2 /g (See Example 2), one obtains: ##EQU1## This corresponds to approximately 0.16% by weight of oleic acid calculated to be required to form a monomolecular layer on the silver surface.
When the flake silver powder of this invention is formulated into conventional paste compositions, the viscosities are markedly improved (better dispersibility) when compared to pastes based on the precipitated precursor silver powders or on silver powders bead-milled in presence of soaps such as sodium stearate. Equivalent formulations were prepared at a calculated solids content of 89% by weight of the paste, containing 80% by weight of silver, 4% frit and 5% inorganic additive in an ethyl cellosolve acetate-β-terpineol vehicle. Viscosity was measured at 25° C. using a Brookfield HBT viscometer (spindle #5 at 10 rpm) and is shown below in Pascal seconds:
______________________________________Silver Powder       Viscosity______________________________________Run A (average of threepreparations, with 0.3%oleic acid)          73Run B (Type V-9 flake,available from E. I. duPont de Nemours & Co.)               1000Run C (Type C flake silverpowder, available fromMetz MetallurgicalCorp.)               140______________________________________
The conductive efficiencies of the above-listed pastes were comparable, indicating that the flake silver powders of this invention afford screen printable pastes at higher solids loadings (at comparable viscosities) and therefore higher conductivity than possible with compositions based on conventional silver powders.
To determine conductive efficiency, the resistance of a fired 800 square serpentine pattern is measured at 25° C. The patterns can be screen printed by hand using a 200-mesh screen, air dried for 10-15 minutes, oven dried at 150° C. for 15 minutes and then fired in a belt furnace at 650° C. Resistance is measured by a conventional two-probe technique, and the weight of silver in the pattern is determined, after dissolution, by thiosulfate titration. Conductive efficiency is then calculated from the formula: ##EQU2##
Silver compositions based on the flake silver powders of this invention are useful, for example, as defoggers for automobiles and as microcircuit conductors.
These Examples, for the preparation of silver powders, are carried out as described above by a bead-milling process using water as the milling medium and various dispersing agents at different levels. Example 7, using stearic acid as a dispersing agent, is not within the scope of this invention.

Is Hair All You Care About? Pt. 1
Has anyone ever said that to you? Or has someone made a statement similiar to this? What did you say to it? Some women seem offended when another women knows something other than the usual about hair care. This could be deep conditioning, acv rinses, the difference between moisturizing and protein conditioners, etc. Why ask another woman about hair care if you really don't care what the answer is? Or if you're just going to bash the answer? Of course hair is not the only thing I care about, but I do care a lot about it's health... in the same way I care about taking showers, giving myself a pedicure, brushing my teeth, etc...lol. Sometimes people ask me hair questions when I'm out and about or just in general....but do they really care to hear my answers? Some women reply with a "You do that???". Granted I am not an official hair care expert, but I am an expert when it comes to my hair. Okay maybe expert is too strong of a word, but I do know a lot about my hair...lol. I learn new things about my hair all the time. I just try to encourage others to do the same. A lot of things in life come thru trials and tribulations and hair care is no different. You have to try out products, regimens, etc so you can see what works for your hair. There are no shortcuts to obtaining healthy hair and growth.
What are your thoughts about this? Photo Credits: Essence
I think it is always funny when people don't understand what you are doing when it comes to your hair care regimen. I like to grease my scalp...some frown upon hearing that but it works for me. Especially when I bow to pressure and stopped. I developed major dandruff problem. One thing is not for everyone. Keep doing you and love yourself for doing that.

Yaruba dynasty - Wikipedia
(Redirected from Yarubid dynasty)
Oman has traditionally been divided between the relatively barren and sparsely populated interior and the more populous coastal region. There was often little or no overall government in the interior, and the tribes often fought amongst each other. They shared belief in the Ibadi branch of Islam, distinct from the main Sunni and Shia schools. The coastal region, particularly the northeast coast around Muscat, was more outward looking, with longstanding connections to Mesopotamia and Persia.[1]
After the early days of Islam, the interior tribes were led by Imams, who held both spiritual and temporal power. The Yahmad branch of Azd tribes gained power in the 9th century.[2] They established a system where the ulama of the Banu Sama, the largest of the Ibadi tribes of the interior, would select the Imam. The authority of the Imams declined due to power struggles, and in 1154 the Nabhani dynasty came to power as muluk, or kings, while the Imams were reduced to largely symbolic significance. The Imam had little moral authority since the title came to be treated as the property of the dominant tribe at any time.[3] In 1507 the Portuguese captured the coastal city of Muscat, and gradually extended their control along the coast up to Sohar in the north and down to Sur in the southeast.[4]
Civil wars and Persian invasions[edit]
A Persian expedition arrived at Julfar around October 1742.[31] They besieged Sohar and sent forces to Muscat, but were unable to take either place.[32] In 1743 Saif was tricked into letting the Persians take the last forts in Muscat.[a] He died soon after. The Persians took Muscat and again attacked Sohar.[33] The Imam Sultan bin Murshid was mortally wounded under the walls of Sohar in mid-1743. Bal'arab bin Himyar was elected Imam in his place.[34] After enduring nine months of siege in Sohar, the governor Ahmad bin Said al-Busaidi negotiated an honorable surrender and was confirmed as governor of Sohar and Barka in return for payment of tribute. In 1744 he was elected Imam. The Persian forces dwindled through desertions. In 1747 Ahmad invited the remaining Persian garrison to a banquet at his fort in Barka, where he massacred them.[33]
^ The story is that Saif and his companions became stupified with wine at a banquet attended by the Persians. The Persian leader stole his seal and forged orders to the commanders of the forts to give them up.[33]

WINNERS AND SINNERS - Chicago Tribune
Richard Gere, Gregory Peck and Billy Crystal may not have won Oscars last week, but, according to the Chicago-based International Formal Wear Association, they swept "best tux" honors at the Academy Awards show with ease-no matter how uncomfortable Crystal may have looked in his black-shirt-with-tails "Jimminy Cricket" ensemble.
The association represents more than 2,000 formalwear manufacturers and specialists around the country. In past years, the fashion industry has concentrated on how women participants in the Oscars show have fared in their notion of evening finery.
But this time, in keeping with the "women in film" theme to which the presentations were dedicated, the Formal Wear Association decided to make the men "endure this scrutiny."
The judges picked winners in five categories:
- Taking the "Topper" Award, named after the classic Cary Grant film comedy of that title, was Gere, who was voted "the most outstanding looking person in a tuxedo" for his understated four-button, double-breasted number (his having Illinois' own Cindy Crawford on his arm may also have enhanced his appearance).
Runner-up in this category was Al Pacino, though his tux may have seemed classically understated only because everyone was distracted by his beard.
- The special "F/X Award" for most creative ensemble went to Crystal, whom the judges insisted did not look like Mr. Cricket ("Mr. Peanut, maybe, though he wears a white shirt with his tux).
- The "Way We Were" Award, for a tasteful tuxedo style that "transcends time," went to the distinguished Mr. Peck, with Oscar-winner Gene Hackman taking second.
- Not wanting to overlook females in the Oscars' "year of the woman," the association also gave a "Trading Places" Award to the actress "who looked best in her black-tie interpretation." It went to Glenn Close, for "reinventing the tux with a lacy interpretation." Voluminously velvety Kathy Bates was runner-up with her "gently softened" look.
- To win the fifth category, the "Accidental Tourist" or "Black Eye" Award, one perforce has to be a big loser. This honor for most dreadful fashion statement went to losing Best Actor nominee Robert Downey Jr., for his mondo bizarro velvet jacket and chiffon neck ribbon ensemble.
"He should have worn a tuxedo, but chose not to," the association said, understatedly. -
