Balloons

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

Introduction

When you think of the word ‘Balloons’ what images appear in your mind? Is it simple balloons you blow up for children’s parties, or balloons that fly off on their own, or the special balloons for key events like the ones produced for the wedding of Charles and Diana? There are now so many different types of balloons on the market that you can get almost anything for everything any event you like.

So what exactly is a balloon? One definition defines a balloon as a flexible bag which you fill with air or some other type of gas, such as helium or hydrogen. The early balloons would have been made with non elastic material but modern balloons are made with latex so they have great elasticity and can be pumped up to much larger sizes.

History of Balloons

The most primitive known balloons were made in Central and Southern America by the Aztec Indians. They were made out of the bowels of cats which were carefully cleaned then turned inside out. They were sewn with special vegetable thread that had the property of sticking to itself when dried in the sun and creating an almost airtight seal. The balloons were then made into air filled model animals and burned at the top of the Aztec pyramid as an offering to the sun god. (The first example of balloon modelling). A Portuguese priest, Bartolomeu de Gusmao, held the first public exhibition of a balloon in the Portuguese Court in Lisbon in 1709 which was probably made from an animal bladder that stretched when filled with air. The rubber balloon was invented in 1824 by a Michael Faraday and was filled with hydrogen to be used in his experiments with hydrogen. But the familiar latex balloon did not appear until 1847.

The early rubber balloons were sold in America in Parks and Circuses for a penny each. Although the latex balloon was manufactured in London in the mid 1800′s the mass production of them did not appear until much later in 1931.

As technology has become more advanced so has the world of balloons. Now balloons can be made from rubber, latex, polychloroprene or nylon. They can be filled with air, helium, hydrogen or water. Filling the balloon with air can be done with the mouth, a manual pump(such as a hand pump), or electric inflator or with compressed gas. The balloons are used for many differing purposes, and decorated in numerous ways to suit the occasion.

Some balloons are purely for decoration, others are ideal for specific purposes because of their low density and relatively low cost. The balloon’s properties have led to them being used in a wide range of other applications in the areas of meteorology, military defense, medical treatment, and transportation.

Types of Balloons

Party Balloons

The most common and familiar types of balloons are the party balloons. These are often bought in small packets and blown up by mouth to create a festive scene for children’s parties and other kinds of celebratory events where balloons make all the difference. These days I often see a cluster of balloons at the entrance to a house or hall to indicate where the party is being held. The balloons come in many different sizes and colours and can have printing on the face which expands as the balloon is inflated. Party Balloons are mostly made of natural latex tapped from rubber trees. The rubber’s elasticity makes the volume variable. Balloons filled with air usually hold their size and shape much longer.

Helium Balloons

Balloons which float upwards are filled with the gas helium which is lighter than air. So for an event where balloons are let off into the atmosphere, they will need to be helium balloons. Helium filled rubber balloons typically only retain their buoyancy for a few days. The enclosed helium atoms are smaller than the pores in the latex through which they escape. To increase the float time of a helium balloon for a week or more, the inside of the balloons can be coated with a special polymer solution to reduce the leakage of the helium.

Water Balloons

The water balloons are often smaller than regular balloons and made from thin rubber so that they can be easily broken. They are filled with water and are intended for children to throw at each other as a game or practical joke with the aim of getting each other soaked. They may also be used in competitions or games.

Foil Balloons

In the late 1970s along came the foil balloon. These are made of thin non-stretch metalized plastic film or mylar. They are much more expensive and made an appearance at the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana causing quite a stir. These balloons have attractive shiny reflective surfaces and can be printed with color pictures, logos and patterns to customize them. The most important attribute of metalized nylon for balloons is its ability to keep the helium gas from escaping for several weeks because it is less permeable. Foil balloons then have the advantage of being light weight, longer-lasting, with increased buoyancy. They are perfect for parties, in-store decorations, special celebrations and for gifts.

Animal-Shaped Balloons

Metalized nylon balloons can be cut into the three dimensional shapes of animals and then printed to represent the chosen animal. Once inflated the balloons make very bright, decorative items for gifts or may be used as a theme for a special event. Screen printing is used to create the designs for these spectacular pieces.

Balloon Modelling and Balloons in Art

Balloon modelling is a popular entertainment for children and adults alike. A Balloon artist twists and ties inflated tubular balloons into shapes resembling animals or even people. Sometimes they are called balloon sculptures, not to be confused with those cited below. When I have watched these artists at work I have often wondered why the balloons don’t burst when they are working. The reason is that the type of latex used for balloon sculpture is made of extra-stretchy rubber so that they can be twisted and tied without bursting. These tiny tubular balloons are extremely tricky to inflate initially so often a pump is needed to get them started.

Balloon Sculptures

Professional party decorators may use hundreds of helium balloons to create balloon sculptures. These sculptures are often constrained because of the round shape of the balloons to simple arches or walls but on occasion more ambitious “sculptures” have been attempted. Sometimes balloons are used as table decorations for special events which will have 3 or 5 balloons to each bouquet. The decoration will usually include curled ribbon with an added weight to stop the balloons from floating away.

Professional balloon party decorators use electronic equipment to enable the exact amount of helium to fill the balloon. For non-floating balloons air inflators are used. Professional quality balloons differ from most retail packet balloons as they are bigger in size and made from 100% biodegradable latex.

Balloon Drops

I am sure you will have been to a party or dance where at the end of the evening hundreds of balloons fall from the ceiling to mingle amongst the participants. This is known as a balloon drop and is often performed at New Year’s Eve celebrations or at political rallies and conventions. It is a relatively low cost way of generating a festive atmosphere at the party climax, so everyone goes away feeling they have had a really good time.

If you want to create a balloon drop for your own event you will need to set up a large plastic bag or net overhead, which is suspended at a certain height. This is then filled with air-inflated balloons so that they will fall onto the target area below when the balloons are released. You will also need to develop a mechanism for releasing the balloons. Balloon drops may also be performed at many celebrations, including graduations and weddings.

Balloon Rockets

As a child I am sure you played the game of blowing up a balloon then letting it go while watching it speed around the room making a rude noise with everyone falling about laughing. These are called balloon rockets and I remember being intrigued and wondering how they worked. When the mouth of the balloon is released, the greater pressure of air inside forces its way out and the elasticity of the balloon contracts causing the balloon to be propelled forward. This is fundamentally how a rocket works. The balloon can also be filled with gases other than air, with similar results. Besides being simple toys, balloon rockets are a widely used teaching device to demonstrate physical principles and the functioning of a rocket. The balloon rocket is often used to demonstrate Newton’s third law in physics.

Balloon Publicity

Balloons releases or races are often used for Publicity at major events as well as for fund raising or raising awareness, where a company logo or message is printed onto the balloons.

Balloon Releases

In Australia they had a fund raising event on 18th April for Make-A-Wish Day. The 5,000 released balloons make a stunning sight as they rise across the bay marking the number of wishes granted since 1985.

If you are planning a balloon release or race of more than 5,000 balloons, it is a requirement that you apply in writing for permission to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) at least 28 days in advance. The CAA also like to be informed of balloon releases up to 5,000. A form can be obtained by calling either the NABAS office on 01989 762 204 or the Airspace Utilisation Section of the CAA on 020 7453 6599

Because of concerns about the impact on the environment of large numbers of balloons being released, the NABAS – The Balloon Association have produced a code of conduct which can be found on their website at www.nabas.co.uk

Safety and Environmental Concerns

Balloons are made of natural rubber latex (NRL) which is a natural product coming from rubber trees that are grown in certain areas of the tropics. These are not trees that are cut down to produce the NRL. The NRL is obtained by tapping from mature trees and is a sustainable crop providing employment for many agricultural workers in some of the poorest areas of the world.

As a consequence of NRL cultivation and the consumption of latex products, the planting and maintenance of rubber tree plantations helps towards the prevention of tropical rainforest deforestation. This contributes significantly to the removal of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, produced by industrialised nations and a major source of global warming.

Research shows that latex balloons which are completely natural coming from the Hevea tree degrade faster than oak leaves. Oxidation occurs first in the breakdown of latex and it begins within an hour of a balloon being inflated. As the decaying process is by natural exposure nutrients are released into the soil. Most balloons used in releases today are made of bio-degradable latex.

An estimated 90/95% of balloons released rise to an altitude of 5 miles, at which height the cold will cause the balloon to become brittle and shatter into miniscule pieces. The small fragments then floating back to earth to degrade in the ground. Balloon fragments are unlikely to cause harm if accidentally ingested. This is because latex and the dyes used in latex colouring are non-toxic.

Printed latex balloons are a fantastic, low-cost and environmentally friendly way of advertising at promotions and events. All latex balloons supplied by B-Loony, the UK’s largest printed balloon manufacturer, are completely biodegradable. The code of conduct produced by NABAS for balloon releases gives advice to ensure the protection of our environment.

Manufacture of Balloons

Balloons are manufactured by their millions every day in many countries. The rubber is collected as liquid from a rubber tree and then sent to the factories where the liquid goes through a series of treatment processes. These processes include shaping and colouring operations and testing for quality. The end products are thousands balloons which provide a splash of colour and party atmosphere at celebrations and conferences or any event where a large number of people gather.

Conclusion

Toy balloons have been a source of pleasure and excitement throughout the world for many years. They have provided hours of entertainment and interest for children as well as being an educational resource. Non toy Balloons are being used for science, medicine and travel and are invaluable in helping us to learn about our world. Balloons I am sure will remain very alive and active on the world’s scene for many years to come.

Compare a lot of horse assurance providers and get your favorable insurance policy

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

On the German insurance market there are many horse insurance suppliers. As a horse owner it is not easy to find the right supplier and contract for your specific needs. How are you able to find the best horse insurance at a competitive price? The following site offers a free comparison of German horse owner insurances: Pferdehaftpflicht Versicherungen. There you can retrieve your individual horse insurance comparison in a few moments. You will get the right equine insurance quote from a great number of insurers.

Who should effect horse insurance? Every responsible horse owner should have a liability insurance against the current risk. Because every horse once can cause a damage. Here are some important aspects which should be considered when thinking about such insurance and searching the right solution:

Without a horse insurance every horse owner carries a very high risk of liability when his four-legged friend once causes a damage. If the horse runs over the street and causes a traffic accident, one can be held liable for all damages of persons and vehicles. If you do not have a horse insurance, it is the victim that confronts you personally with their demands. You then have to decide whether to pay or to dispute by yourself or to mandate a solicitor. A horse insurance would have done all that for you. Then you do not stand alone in the event of damage but have professional support by your side.

Your horse insurance also takes over the legal costs of the victim, which you had to pay by yourself without such coverance. Having such insurance, the clerk of your insurance works for you on the claims made by the injured party. So you have a professional by your side to decide which claims are right and which are not. It is not necessary to visit all the horse owner insurance companies by oneself when looking for a good solution. You can get an online comparison and even effect your insurance here: Pferdeversicherungen. If your horse causes an accident or other damage, the injured party will charge you personally if you do not have a horse liability insurance. Then you will have to cover with your complete private assets for possible damage. With a liability insurance for your horse you can also get help if unjustified demands are put on you as the owner.

Without having a horse liability insurance, you must deal by yourself with the demands of the victim or you need to mandate a lawyer to do so for you. The favorable annual premium payment for a horse insurance protects you from a high financial risk. By arranging a own contribution you can reach nice savings concerning the contribution payment. Your equine insurance manages the handling of the case and the claims of third parties. If your insurance comes to the conclusion that you are not liable for something, they help you even if anyone brings an action against you therefore.

Silverlit RC helicopters are just fun

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Despite how the cost of things makes it easier to buy what you really want one of the dilemmas of the modern world is that there is so much choice, even these days when the credit crunch is making everyone more cost conscious.

You see when you have 10 items to choose from, all as good as each other, it’s at least 10 times as hard to pick one. Factor in price and that’s an added layer of complication.

For big kids of all ages who want a remote control helicopter there’s a very wide choice these days. In fact you can even get started for under £20 if you just want something that’s a bit of fun to play with and easy to fly.

In my opinion the best choice and value right now is provided by the range of Silverlit Picooz Helicopter range. Silverlit seem to know how to make fun, cheap radio control helicopters and their range is very wide and constantly growing.

More important than just a good range and a low price is that they’re just plain fun! Give one to a boy – or a man – and watch how they pretend to be ace pilots! You won’t see them for hours because they’ll be so absorbed in ‘flying’ the helicopter.

Since they’re very lightweight they don’t have the heavy crash landings that you gt with real’ radio control helicopters. So they don’t normally sustain damage the way the big toys do. In other words once you’ve bought one, it should last you a long, long time. Important in today’s economic climate.

So if you’re looking for a fun gift for someone who’s hard to please, don’t overlook the humble radio control helicopter!

iPhone Applications Can Make You Money

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Iphone applications can make you big money! Did you know that a 9 Year old Whiz Kid can program an iphone application and get thousands of downloads in just a few weeks? In fact, this young man had 4000 downloads in a very short time, and it’s not his only application. Just think – what if he earned $1.50 for each download? Yes, $6,000 and counting. Another iphone application whiz – Ethan Nicholas – made over $35,000 in a single day from his iphone application! His success is definitely worth emulating.

But before you say “I couldn’t do that, I don’t know programming” – please hold on! Don’t count yourself out of the iphone marketing game just yet. Here’s a little known secret – you don’t have to know a thing about programing to make money with iphone applications! Like every other work at home business opportunity, you can outsource much of this business model, including the actual programming of an iphone application. If you have the idea and spot the need, there are trustworthy contractors who can do the actualy programming for you.

Entrepreneurs in the iphone applicaton business get paid not because they know how to program, per se, but because they know how to spot a need (or want) and fill it for their customers. The same holds true when it comes to making money with iphone applications. Spotting the need and coming up with the initial idea are as important as the programming. Once programmed and accepted by iTunes, a little publicity can send downloads through the roof. You could create a windfall of cash or an ongoing stream of revenue if you learn the ropes of creating and marketing iphone applications. Undoubtedly there are pitfalls and deadends in this business as with any other. But for the foreseeable future, there is a great opportunity to prosper while creating iphone applications for those who see the potential and invest themselves in serving iphone customers.

Locating Used Boats for Sale

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

If the time has come to purchase that first fish or ski boat but not too keen on the high ticket price of a brand new model it might be more within the finances to go with a used of second-hand power or motorboat.

Its possible to locate used boats for sale at a variety of sources. One popular destination is a local dealership or boat trader. This option offers the chance to view the craft first hand and if something should be of interest it’s often acceptable to take a craft on a on-water sea trail. This allows you to get to grips with the performance and handling of the craft.

The next choice is to view the classified ads in the local newspapers to see what’s in the offering. Again if a boat is located in the local area it will be possible to pop along and view it in all its glory. This ensures that its possible to give the used boat a full inspection prior to making any sort of commitment to purchase. These classified advertisements also feature an assortment of boat accessories to help in outfitting the craft with fishing and sailing paraphernalia.

Now if nothing at all can be find in the local area it will be necessary to spread the search for the desired boats, parts, accessories over a greater area. Going online will offer a vast amount of options, with literally thousands of boats listed for sale across web. Its also possible to search places such as eBay by state or region to give further ideas on what’s available out there.

With anything that’s to be purchased second-hand its always wise to proceed with some caution and having some sort of prior boating knowledge can also assist in the search.

Crib Sets Are A Great Addition For The Infants Room

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

Today, crib bedding sets are available in many different styles, shapes and sizes. They are usually sold in sets of 4 and 6. Many crib sets are made of a soft material so that they are comfortable for baby. You always want to make sure that you get your crib bedding set in a material that is stain resistant. There will be plenty of stain for the material to resist. The mattress in the crib should fit very snugly so there are no places where babies extremities may get caught. There are many different varieties of crib bedding set to choose from. A good rule of thumb is that your two fingers should not be able to get between the crib and the mattress. And when you put baby to sleep, you may want to use pajamas to keep him or her warm instead of blankets that baby may be able to get wrapped up in.

The number one thing you want to look at before purchasing a crib bedding set is the safety. Some experts say that the safest crib to put your baby in is a bare crib. They say this because babies may be prone to getting caught up in some of the things people may put in the crib for decoration.

One thing you may want to consider putting in the crib is crib bumper pads. This will ensure that there is a soft surface around the inside of the crib so baby wont bump its head. The old bumpers back in the day were not sufficient because it was believed that they didn’t supply enough fresh air for the baby. With so many crib designs out there, you may need some time to pick the right set.

The crib industry is massive and there are many crib designers out there in the industry. Most of the designers offer unique crib designs at sensible and affordable prices. There are many different themes to choose from. There are animal themes, television themes, sports themes and the list goes on and on. It is a good idea to get a theme that will match the room in the right way. Make sure that the crib set will match the wall paint and other accessories such and lamps and tables that may already be in the room.

Isn’t MLM One of Those Pyramid Schemes?

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

This is a question that we often get asked.  And the answer of course is “Definitely Not!”  Though MLM and pyramid schemes may seem to share some similarities, there’s a BIG difference which makes MLM legal and pyramiding ILLEGAL.

In pyramid schemes, income is generated solely on the process of recruiting others into the pyramid. Sometimes a product or service of questionable value is involved, but you are most often buying into the right to recruit others and collect money.

This is illegal!  Also, in pyramid schemes, those who get in first and are at the top win, while everyone else loses.

In a legitimate MLM company, representatives are paid only on the movement of products or selling of services, not merely recruiting.

Sometimes, there’s also compensation based on the training and managing of your marketing team.

Also, in an MLM company, no matter where you are positioned or when you joined, you can advance to the very highest income levels, and pass those who sponsor you.

Multi Level Marketing is nothing more that a business model that uses independent distributors with a multi level commission payout plan to move products from production to the consumer.

But you ask, “Isn’t the shape of an MLM organization similar to a pyramid?”  And the answer to that question is yes, but that is true of all hierarchical organizations.  For example, the shape of all normal businesses is in the shape of a pyramid.  There is something like a President or CEO, several Vice Presidents, more Division Directors, Group Directors, and finally the workers that make up the bulk of the workforce.  Each level down has more people at that level.

The same holds true for governmental departments, and the military.  At the top of a governmental department, there is the Secretary, then Deputy Secretaries, Assistant Secretaries, heads of lesser groupings and then the mass of workers.

All these organizations are shaped like a pyramid, so it is not the shape of the organization that makes a difference.  It has to do with the actual selling or not selling of products of value.  If real products are being sold and consumed, and the movement of these products from production to the end consumer is the primary purpose of the business, then generally the company is a legal entity.

If the primary purpose of the company is to simply recruit more and more members and there is no real product of value being sold, then you have a illegal operation.  Chain letters are an example of this kind of activity. 

What makes a MLM company different from a traditional retail company is the manner in which the sales force is paid. In traditional retail and direct sales companies, the salesperson is a company employee and earns a commission on only the products he or she sells directly.  In MLM companies the salesperson is not an employee of the company, but rather an independent distributor.

The magic of MLM is that independent distributors earn commissions not only for their own efforts, but also on the efforts of other distributors that they recruit into the business.  Earning 1% of a hundred peoples efforts is always better than earning 100% on your own efforts, as John Paul Getty noted.

The term “multi level” comes from the process where by one distributor recruits other people to become distributors and the new distributors are placed under them in what is known as a downline.  Each distributor is paid a retail commission on the products they sell themselves, and a wholesale commission on the products their downline sells (down to some designated level).

The larger downline a distributor can recruit, the larger will be his or her commissions as they will earn a wholesale override commission on all the products moved by their downline organization down to the designated level.  These commissions can add up quickly for distributors with large downlines.

Nevertheless, a controversial new ebook has recently been published that reveals why prospecting and recruiting is actually destroying many MLM businesses… why a business opportunity is literally the last thing you want to be selling… and… how to make money REGARDLESS of whether you sponsor anyone in a MLM business or not!  Click here to learn more => The Renegade Network Marketer

Load Dependant Sterility Concerns in Hospital Autoclaves (South Africa)

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

The need for sterilization by steam under increased pressure arises from the fact that the spores of many common and dangerous bacteria are strongly resistant to dry heat. The most effective way of killing these spores is by means of steam at high temperature and high humidity which will condense into their substance and moisten them thoroughly.To bring about this affect all parts of the load to be sterilized must be free of air, so that it may be permeated by the steam and the steam must be not only hot 121OC or 134OC but nearly saturated that is, it must be at a pressure so high that in spite of its high temperature it is close to the point of condensing to liquid water. Steam in this condition is termed Just Dry. Departures from this condition result in inefficient sterilizing operation!

Autoclave Pours Cycle Requirements:Air Removal:The adequate removal of air is the first essential in the sterilisation of textiles; air is removed by a vacuum pump which reduces the absolute pressure of air in the chamber to a value of a few millimetres of mercury column before steam is admitted. This is often described as drawing an almost perfect vacuum, and it means removing more than 98 percentof the air initially present. It must be emphasised that during the preconditioning stage it is imperative that the set vacuum points are met via actual chamber vacuum and not via a timing source as vacuum set points are load dependant and load variable. Departures from the recommended means of measuring vacuum set points can cause inadequate air removal.

Timing:When the steam has reached the correct set sterilizing temperate, sufficient time must be allowed for the physical changes that kill the bacteria and their spores to take place throughout the load; it is these changes that constitute the sterilizing process. Times corresponding to different temperatures have been given by Perkins as follows: 2min s at 132OC and 12min s at 121 OC.To allow for deviations in steam quality a further (safety) period is added. Adapting Perkins figures (above) Medi-Clave recommend the following times and temperatures as a minimum:4 min s at 134OC and 15 mins at 121OC.

Drying:At the end of the sterilizing phase it is necessary to dry the load without re-contaminating it.The state of dryness of the load will be fixed by the equilibrium established between the vapour pressure over the load and the pressure in the chamber the lower the chamber pressure the more rapid will be the boiling off of the water. At this stage practically no air should be present in the chamber. If dressings have not been made grossly wet by inadequately dried steam, the mere attaining of the vacuum should be sufficient to achieve drying without a need to maintain it! Medi-Clave found that with a high-vacuum sterilizer operated with dry steam, the load was back at its starting condition as regards to temperature and humidity, at the end of the sterilizing cycle.Wet Steam is a frequent cause of incomplete sterilization. It causes the dressings in the sterilizer to become soaked with moisture, usually early on in the sterilizing process. Moreover, the subsequent drying of the wet dressings is unaccomplished and it carries a serious risk of recontamination by airborne organisms that can re penetrate in to the pack.

Vacuum-Break:Air must be admitted to break the vacuum before the sterilizer is opened. This air must be drawn from a clean source through a bacteriological filter. More detail on autoclaves can be found at Medi-clave website

Keys to Losing Weight

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

The key to any weight loss is eating healthy and getting exercise. Eliminate fast food and any other fatty foods from your diet. It’s very difficult to achieve the weight loss cure without taking this step. The positive changes a person experiences during and after weight loss is enormous. It is for this reason why a lot of people are searching for quick effective weight loss techniques that will surely trim down those fats and get a healthier, happier body.

Weight loss is the result of a calorie deficit, so having more fat makes it harder. Actually losing FAT and not muscle requires a structured diet, including fat, but also some slow release carbs and lots of protein, weight training and a small calorie deficit. Losing weight is generally seen as primarily being a female issue, but everyone knows that it is not. Be that as it may, I have trouble picturing a room full of men discussing their love of ice cream, cellulite, chocolate binges, emotional eating and so on, of course on there way to learning how to lose weight fast. However, the concept of weight loss is very basic, burn more calories than you ingest and your body will react accordingly. Unless you have a something else going on like a medical disorder, this formula works for just about anyone.

Green tea weight loss is safe, effecting and can if used consistently assist with a permanent weight loss. With a quick search on the internet you would come to know that herbal weight loss is possible through herbal products such as Hoodia, Dandelion, Pyruvate, Aloe Vera. However, before opting for herbal weight loss products, it is necessary for you to consult with a herbal practitioner.

Now when it comes to weighing yourself, scale weight does not tell you if weight loss is from fat, water or muscle tissue. Scale weight by itself is not a good indicator of success. Losing weight and maintaining that weight loss is one of the greatest challenges any individual can undertake. Along with proper diet and exercise, a colon cleanse will help you achieve your weight loss goals and provide you with a cleaner, healthier body. Whether or not your goal is to lose weight fast or to simply become more caring of the workings of your internal systems and body overall.
