Answer to Question 1

Programmable parisons only have meaning in extrusion blow molding because they are made with a movable mandrel in the extrusion die. However, a similar effect can be achieved in injection blow molding if the core pin of the preform

mold cavity is shaped. This shaping will create some thick section of the preform which can be placed in the locations that will travel the farthest in the mold.

Answer to Question 2

Programmable devices allow the parisons to have varying wall thickness to compensate for the longer distances of travel required to fill some parts of the mold. The parts made using programmable parisons are, therefore, more uniform in wall thickness.

Hippocrates noted that blood separates into four differently colored liquids when removed from the body and examined: a pure red liquid mixed with white liquid material with a yellow-colored froth at the top and a black substance that settles underneath; he named these the four humors (for blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
