An acetate /ˈæsɪteɪt/ is a derivative of acetic acid. This term includes salts and esters, as well as the anion found in solution. Most of the approximately 5 billion kilograms of acetic acid produced annually in industry are used in the production of acetates, which usually take the form of polymers. In nature, acetate is the most common building block for biosynthesis. For example, the fatty acids are produced by connecting C2 units derived from acetate.
When part of a salt, the formula of the acetate anion is written as CH3CO2−, C2H3O2−, or CH3COO−. Chemists abbreviate acetate as OAc− or AcO−. Thus, HOAc is the abbreviation for acetic acid, NaOAc for sodium acetate, and EtOAc for ethyl acetate. The abbreviation "Ac" (or "AC") is also sometimes encountered in chemical formulas to indicate the acetate ion. This abbreviation is not to be confused with the symbol of actinium, the first element of the actinides series. For example, the formula for sodium acetate might be abbreviated as "NaAc", rather than "CH3COONa". Care should also be taken to avoid confusion with peracetic acid when using the OAc abbreviation; for clarity and to avoid errors when translated, HOAc should be avoided in literature mentioning both compounds.
Thomas J. Davies (October 14, 1896 – February 29, 1972) was an American football player and coach. He played as a halfback at the University of Pittsburgh and was a consensus All-American in 1918 and 1920. After retiring as a player, Davies worked as a football coach for the next 26 years, including stints at the University of Pennsylvania, Geneva College, Allegheny College, the University of Rochester, the Carnegie Institute of Technology, the University of Scranton, and Western Reserve University. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a player in 1970.
Davies was a native of Gas City, Indiana. He moved to Washington, Pennsylvania when he was 11 years old. Davies played high school football at Aliquippa High School in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, and at Kiski Preparatory School in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania. Davies was working in a Washington factory when he got the chance to play football at Kiski. A friend refused to accept a football scholarship there unless Davies went along.
John McLane (February 27, 1852–April 13, 1911) was a furniture maker and politician from Milford, New Hampshire. He was Governor of New Hampshire from 1905 to 1907.
He was born in Lennoxtown, in Scotland, the son of Alexander McLane and his wife Mary, née Hay, and was brought to America with his family in 1853, when he was one year old. They settled in Manchester, and moved to Milford in 1869. Upon completion of his schooling, he became a cabinetmaker's apprentice, and opened his own shop in 1876. The business's success (it was for a time the largest manufacture of post-office furniture in North America) secured other business opportunities for him: he became a director of the Milford Granite Company, the Souheagan National Bank and the New Hampshire Fire Insurance Company.
On 10 March 1880 he married Ellen Luetta Tuck (1855–1927). They had four children, Clinton Averill McLane (1881), Hazel Ellen McLane (1885), John Roy McLane (1886), and Charles Malcolm McLane (1910).
McLane was elected, as a Republican, to the New Hampshire House of Representatives in 1885, and to the New Hampshire Senate in 1891, representing the 16th District 1891-92 and the 15th District 1893-94. He was president of the senate during his two terms. He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention from New Hampshire in 1900, and was elected governor in 1904.
I remember how you radiate
Chemicals react on acetate
The camera never lies and stole my fate
Now I can't find my way
A lullaby
Race the tide killed his history
We deconstruct the simple lies
And don't know what it means
Signals crossed, meanings lost
Imaginations run
It's black on white, or white on black
We get the damage done
I remember how you radiate
Chemicals react on acetate
The camera never lies and stole my fate
Now I can't find my way
Now I can't find my way
Paper cuts
And darling birds
Debutants debut
We cannot clean, the soft machine
I always thought you knew
If you believe, the worst of me
I'll do the same for you
I'll crush your dreams, if you crush my dreams
It's the least I can do
I remember how you radiate
Chemicals react on acetate
The camera never lies and stole my fate
Now I can't find my way
Now I can't find my way
I won't surrender, but I'll keep on falling
Star crossed we got your alibis
Lay your weapons down and keep on dreaming
Sure shots come with fireflies
I remember how you radiate
Chemicals react on acetate
The camera never lies and stole my fate
I remember how you radiate
Chemicals react on acetate
The camera never lies and stole my fate
Now I can't find my way
Now I can't find my way
Now I can't find my way
I looked at the answers you wrote on your hand
When they were asking you about the man
That you? d like to meet and drop everything to run to
I don't mean to brag and I don't mean to boast
But I would like to think I've got most
Of the qualities on your list, so I thought I? d introduce myself to you
Your pouting blue eyes they make contact with mine
And they keep looking through me until they? re behind me
And staring at the face of a man that you know that I know that you know could only bring bad news
You hate to be rude but you really must go
Leaving me to wonder if I'll know
The words that I say that give me away
As being unworthy of you every time
And if he? s the one that you want to go to bed with
And I'm the one you want to wake up to
I can put myself on acetate and make it easier for you
Forget what they tell you, the evenings are yours
The supplicating men become whores
And we? re lined up like chances, and all that you need do is take one
But your look says it clearly, you think me a toy
If you were in the market for a boy
You would find yourself a man and a mattress and make one
But I would have to suppose that that? s the way life goes
When the gardener decides to fall in love with the rose
I'll protect you from insects but I won't presume to inhale you
For whatever the reason you? re out of my league
Pursuing only leads to fatigue
So I will take my leave and my heart from my sleeve
And I'll see you whenever I see you again
And if he? s the one that you want to go to bed with
And I'm the one you want to wake up to
I can put myself on acetate and make it easier for you
To take me with you when you go
And tell me things I shouldn? t know
And be the girl I thought I? d finally found a thousand times before
