Soudiern Comfort s patron saint, of course, is Janis Joplin, die Texan boa-bedecked, crash-and-bum blues-rock goddess of the late 1960s—a truth so enormous that Brown-Forman is afraid to deny it. [Pg.61]

The first reports on the drag reduction phenomenon are found in publications by Blatch (1906), Forrest (1931), as well as by Brautlecht (1933), who measured the flow behaviour of paper pulps. In independent studies made by Mysels (1949) and Toms (1948) this phenomenon was observed in the turbulent flow of gasoline in pipes when aluminum soaps were added and, in Toms experiments, when polymethylmethacrylate in monochlorobenzene was used. The reduction of friction is therefore often termed the Toms effect . This flow behaviour is also known in the literature as the Non-Newtonian- , visco-elastic- , Texas- or Texas-Toms-effect , due to the contributions made by Texan researchers. It is also more generally known, and this term will be used in this paper exclusively, as the drag-reduction effect of flow additives. [Pg.103]

It was an exciting place to be for the new, 26-year-old assistant professor of theoretical chemistry, Linus Pauling. He was thrilled to have his first official office (a corner of the X-ray laboratory), his first graduate student (a Texan, J. Holmes Sturdivant, who quickly became a lifelong friend), and his first class to teach ( An Introduction to Wave Mechanics with Applications to Chemistry ). He was... [Pg.44]

As a young Texan, Robert Curl (1933- ) used up the chemicals in the chemistry set his parents bought him for Christmas, so he found a sympathetic pharmacist to help him resupply. His parents rethought the wisdom of the gift when, in using his new stock, he permanently altered the porcelain top on his mother s stove. ... [Pg.34]

Reaching, as 20/20 did to justify Powell s statements, 20/20 wasted a full two minutes recounting the case of Texan, John Chanslor, who tried to buy ricin from Minnery in 1982. It was a lurid case, but again had nothing to do with weapons books. Had Chanslor botight my WEAPONEER, made his own ricin and killed his wife, there would have been some justification for airing the case in conjunction with "terrorist manuals. ... [Pg.20]

A Hen J. Bard is a New Yorker turned Texan by way of Boston. He received his /iB.S. from City College of New York, completed his doctorate at Harvard, and has been on the faculty at the University of Texas, Austin since 1958. At Texas, he holds the Norman Hackerman/Welch Regents Chair and is founder and director of the Laboratory of Electrochemistry. The lab develops electroanalytical methods and instruments and applies them to the study of problems in elec-troorganic chemistry, photoelectrochemistry, and electroanalytical chemistry. Bard and his laboratory hold more than 20 patents. Along with his former graduate student Larry R. Faulkner, he co-authored the important textbook Electrochemical Methods. In 2002, Bard added the Priestly Medal, the top award from the American Chemical Society, to his many other national and international prizes in chemistry. He recently stepped down as editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American Chemical Society, a position he held for 20 years. [Pg.488]

Texans and non-Texans alike agree that there s only one adjective to describe Texas - big. Whether it s big oil, big money, big airports, big hats, big belt buckles, or big open spaces, Texas has it all. Texans don t eat quiche. This is cattle country consuming large quantities of Longhorn steer is a revered tradition. Vegetarians can get by, and the locals are friendly enough, but be prepared to be ribbed a little. [Pg.177]

Dallas is different things to different people. For some, it s a temple of Bible-thumping Christianity for others, a hedonistic shopping mecca for a few, the center for an underground Texan gay community for most, just a safe place to raise the kids. [Pg.179]

San Antonio s festive Old World atmosphere is a pleasant change from the larger, more uptight cities of Dallas and Houston. The downtown River Walk epitomizes San Antonio s relaxed nature - riverboats and gondolas slowly plying narrow canals. San Antonio is also home to the Alamo, a historic site held sacred by proud Texans. It was here that a small group of Texans held off an enormous Mexican army until the defenders had lost every last man. [Pg.184]

Saving the best for last, I would like to thank my lovely wife, Mary Anderson, for her support, suggestions, and spirited Texan ways. She has done more than help improve this monograph she has improved my life in immeasurable ways. For these reasons, I dedicate this volume to her. [Pg.5]

Two main families of cedarwood oils are used in perfumery. The first is extracted from trees of the family Juniperus. These oils are known as English, Texan or Chinese cedarwood and their components are derived from the cedrane and thujopsane groups of sesquiterpenes. Atlas and Himalayan cedarwoods are obtained from Cedrus species and their terpenes are mostly from the bisabolane family. The cedrane-thujopsane derivatives are much more widely used than the bisabo-lanes. [Pg.81]

There are two main types of cedarwood sources for perfumery. One comprises plants of the juniperus family and the other of the cedrus family. The former are known as English, Texan or Chinese cedarwood and are produced principally in China and U.S.A. The leaf oils are extracted from this family. Chemically, the major components of these oils are based on the cedrane skeleton. The products obtained from members of the cedrus family are known as Atlas or Himalayan cedarwoods. They are produced in North Africa and the Himalayas and the chemical structure of their major components are based on the bisabolane skeleton. [Pg.42]
