Feeling is the nominalization of the verb to feel.[1] The word was first used in the English language to describe the physical sensation of touch through either experience or perception. The word is also used to describe experiences other than the physical sensation of touch, such as "a feeling of warmth"[2] and of sentience in general. In Latin, sentire meant to feel, hear or smell. In psychology, the word is usually reserved for the conscious subjective experience of emotion.[3] Phenomenology and heterophenomenology are philosophical approaches that provide some basis for knowledge of feelings. Many schools of psychotherapy depend on the therapist achieving some kind of understanding of the client's feelings, for which methodologies exist.
Perception of the physical world does not necessarily result in a universal reaction among receivers (see emotions), but varies depending on one's tendency to handle the situation, how the situation relates to the receiver's past experiences, and any number of other factors. Feelings are also known as a state of consciousness, such as that resulting from emotions, sentiments or desires.
People buy products in hopes that this certain product will make them feel a certain way either happy, excited or beautiful. Some women buy beauty products in hopes of achieving a state of happiness or a sense of self beauty. Past events are used in our lives to form schemas in our minds and based on those past experiences we expect our lives to follow a certain script just because of a past event.
A social psychologist, Daniel Gilbert alongside other researchers conducted a study on the influence of feelings on events. The results showed that when the participants predicted a positive feeling for an event, the higher the chances that they wanted to relive the event. Predicted feelings were either short lived or did not correlate to what the participant expected.[4]
How You Feel About What You Feel[edit]
Individuals in society predict that a certain something will give them the desired outcome or feeling of expectation. Indulging in what one might have thought would've made them happy or excited only causes a temporary fill or it might actually give the complete opposite results than we had expected. Events and experiences are done and relived in life to satisfy one's feelings.
Details and information about the past is used to make decisions. Gilbert and Wilson conducted a study to show how pleased a person would feel if they purchased flowers for themselves for no specific reason (birthday, anniversary, promotion or etc...) just because and how long they thought that feeling would last. People who had no experience of purchasing flowers for themselves and those who had experienced buying flowers for themselves were tested. Results showed that those who had purchased flowers in the past for themselves felt happier and that feeling lasted longer versus a person who had never experienced purchasing flowers for themselves. Past experiences of feelings influence our current decision making. Feelings from the past dictate how we will feel in the future and if we in turn want to feel that way again.[4]
Arlie R. Hoschild, a sociologist depicted two account of emotion. The organismic emotion is the outburst of emotions and feelings. In organismic emotion, emotions/ feelings are not thought about prematurely, but instantly expressed. In organismic emotion social and other various factor do not influence how the emotion is perceived, so these factors have no control onto how or if the emotion is suppressed or expressed.
In interactive emotion, emotions and feelings are controlled. In interactive emotion the individual is constantly in a conversation as to how to react or what to suppress. Unike in organismic emotion, in interactive emotion the individual is aware of their decision on how they feel and how they show it.
Erving Goffman, a sociologist and writer compared how actors withheld their emotions to the everyday individual. Like actors, individuals can control how the emotions are expressed, but they cannot control the emotion or feelings that they feel on the inside. Inner feelings can only be suppressed in order to achieve the expression you want people to see on the outside. Goffman explains that emotions and emotional experience are an ongoing thing that an individual is consciously and actively working through. Individuals want to conform to society with their inner and outer feelings.[5]
Anger, happiness, joy, stress, and excitement are some of the feelings that are experienced in life. When we are feeling these emotions our bodies are reacting as well. When we are nervous we feel knots in our stomach or when we are angry the very hairs on our bodies tend to rise.[6]
Feelings can lead to harm and also blissful things. When an individual is dealing with an overwhelming amount of stress and problems in their lives, it can lead them to cause self harm. When one is in a good state of feeling they never want it to end; however, when someone is in a bad place in their life they just want that feeling to go away or stop completely. Inflicting harm or pain to oneself is sometimes the answer for many individuals because they just want something to keep their mind off the real problem or issue that is going on in their lives. The individual figures that the pain they are causing to themselves is not as bad as what their actual problem is. These individuals cut, stab, and starve themselves in efforts to feel something other than their current feeling. Distraction is not the only reason why many individuals choose to inflict self harm. Some people inflict self harm not to numb or distract themselves from that feeling they were feeling earlier, but they inflict self pain as a way to punish themselves for feeling a certain way.[7]
A gut feeling, or gut reaction, is a visceral emotional reaction to something. It may be negative, such as a feeling of uneasiness, or positive, such as a feeling of trust. Gut feelings are generally regarded as not modulated by conscious thought, and as a reflection of intuition rather than rationality. The phrase "gut feeling" may also be used as a shorthand term for an individual's "common sense" perception of what is considered "the right thing to do"; such as: helping an injured passerby, avoiding dark alleys and generally acting in accordance with instinctive feelings about a given situation. It can also refer to simple common knowledge phrases which are true no matter when said, such as "Water is wet", "Fire is hot", or to ideas that an individual intuitively regards as true, without proof (see "Truthiness" for examples).
The Feeling of Knowing or Not Knowing[edit]
The way that we see other people express their emotions or feelings is what we use to respond back. The way an individual responses to a situation is based on feeling rules. If an individual is uninformed about a situation the way they respond would be in a completely different demeanor than if they were informed about a situation. If a tragic situation had occurred and you had knowledge of it, then your response would be sympathetic to that situation versus if you had no knowledge of the situation then your response would be indifferent. A lack of knowledge or information about an event can shape the way an individual sees things and the way they respond back.[6]
Timothy D. Wilson, a psychology professor tested this theory of the feeling of uncertainty along with his colleague Yoav Bar-Anan, a social psychologist. Wilson and Bar-Ann found that the more uncertain or unclear an individual is about a situation, the more invested they are. Since an individual does not know the background or the ending of a story they are constantly replaying an event in their mind which is causing them to have mixed feelings of happiness, sadness, excitement, and et cetera.
Individuals in society want to know every detail about something in hopes to maximize the feeling for that moment, but Wilson found that feeling uncertain can lead to something being more enjoyable because it has a sense of mystery. In fact the feeling of not knowing can leave our minds to wonder off and to constantly think and feel about what could've been.[8]
Emotion Work[edit]
There are two types of emotion work, evocation and suppression. Evocation is used to obtain or bring up a certain feeling and suppression is used to put away or hide certain unwanted feelings. Emotion work is done by you yourself, others upon you, or you upon others. Emotion work is done to achieve a certain feeling that one believes they should feel.
There are three types of emotion work: cognitive, bodily, and expressive. Cognitive changes images, bodily changes physical aspects, and expressive changes gestures. A person who is sad uses expressive emotion work to lift their spirits by trying to smile. A person who is stressed uses bodily emotion work by trying to breathe slower in order to lower stress levels. Emotion work allows individuals to change their feelings to suit the current situation.
Feelings are deemed appropriate if they fit the current situation. Since individuals want to fit in and be normal, they are constantly working on their feelings in order to fit the situation. Emotion work is more so how people want to feel or how they want other people to see them feel. Feelings are not permanent, but an ongoing thing because people constantly try to bring up, suppress, or manage feelings.[5]
Social Class and Feelings[edit]
Class differences influence and varies how a parent raises their child. Middle-class parents raise their child through the use of feelings and lower-class parents raise their children through behavior control. Middle-class parents and lower-class parents raise their children to be like them feeling and behavioral wise. Middle-class children get reprimanded for feeling the wrong way and lower-class children are punished for behaving in a bad manner or behavior.
Lionel Trilling, an author and literary critic described the technique that the middle and the lower class parents use over under-working and overworking their children's feelings causes them to seek approval of their feelings in the future. When children of the lower class of working class family go out into the work field they are less prepared for emotional management than the middle class children.

Coming Up Roses In a Downcast Year
By MICHAEL ONEAL
Published: December 29, 2002
THE year 2002 will surely go down as one of the worst in business history.
Scandal rocked corporate suites and Washington offices, jobs evaporated, the American economy muddled along and Europe and Latin America reeled. Rogues at companies like WorldCom and Enron were bad enough, but even superstar executives like Jack Welch contributed to the staining of corporate America.
Payment was coming due, it seemed, for the hubris and excess of the late 1990's. This was not just a down year. The troubles seemed biblical.
The truth, of course, was much less dire. The economy grew a bit and the stock market, while down over all, provided many opportunities for investors willing to take a risk. Low interest rates led to a refinancing boom that kept consumers in the malls.
Some people in the business world, in fact, had an exceptionally good year, often thriving on the troubles of others. Many of them were lawyers -- working on bankruptcies, defending those accused of corporate malfeasance and filing class-action suits on behalf of shareholders. Among investment bankers, those advising bankrupt companies obviously racked up business.
Other executives, operating under tough conditions, managed to have a good year, too, avoiding the storms in their industry or harnessing them to their advantage.
Money & Business selected about a dozen people who made 2002 a winning year -- or just happened to have fortune smile upon them. Many, though, may find 2003 to be a challenge.
DAVID NEELEMAN -- JetBlue Airways
If the ultimate definition of a good year is to succeed mightily when all those around you failed miserably, Mr. Neeleman had a very good year indeed. As founder and chief executive of JetBlue, Mr. Neeleman, 42, not only brought his upstart carrier public during the worst airline crisis in history, he also managed to double profits, to $34 million, and revenue, to $448 million, in the nine months ended Sept. 30.
Mr. Neeleman's low-cost airline doesn't feel like one. All the seats on its new Airbus 320's are leather and come with satellite television connections. Its customer service draws rave reviews, and its fares give high-cost rivals like United and US Airways fits. Mr. Neeleman's operating margin even outshines that of industry superstar Herb Kelleher, the chairman of Southwest Airlines.
Plenty of airline entrepreneurs have done an Icarus act, falling from the sky as competitors were stirred to action. But Mr. Neeleman is nothing if not tenacious. Now a father of nine, he never finished college at the University of Utah and suffers from attention deficit disorder. Yet he became the co-founder of a charter airline company and sold it to Southwest in 1993 for $128 million in stock. His 8 percent stake in JetBlue is flying at an altitude of $137 million. Pushing it higher will be next year's challenge.
CLIVE CALDER and CLIVE DAVIS -- BMG
It was a great year to be a Clive -- especially if you happened to be doing business with BMG, the music unit of Germany's Bertelsmann.
Two years ago, Strauss Zelnick, then BMG's chief, created a firestorm by ousting Mr. Davis, the legendary founder of Arista Records. Bertelsmann gave Mr. Davis, now 69, his own label, J Records, but the ouster hurt.
Mr. Davis, who made his name shepherding the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Janis Joplin, quickly struck gold with the rhythm-and-blues diva Alicia Keys. In November, BMG, which had by then ousted Mr. Zelnick, embraced Mr. Davis anew, giving him an estimated $50 million for the 50 percent of J it did not already own and installing him as head of the RCA Music Group -- vindication wrapped in a fat paycheck.
But that pales next to the billions that BMG showered on Mr. Calder, the reclusive South African founder of Zomba Music. More than a decade ago, Mr. Calder quietly negotiated a distribution deal with BMG that included a novel twist: in 2002, BMG would be obligated to buy out Mr. Calder at a certain price based on Zomba's revenue in previous years.
Mr. Calder went on to deliver the teen idols Britney Spears and 'N Sync. Revenue soared and BMG's obligation ballooned to an astonishing $2.8 billion by the time Calder's ''put'' came due this year. Sadly for BMG, Britney isn't what she used to be, and sales are sliding fast. Mr. Calder, meanwhile, is long gone -- trying to figure out where to spend that $2.8 billion.
LAWRENCE F. PROBST III -- Electronic Arts
The year has been the best of times for purveyors of electronic fantasy -- especially Mr. Probst, 52, the chairman of Electronic Arts Inc.
Riding a mighty surge in the sales of computer games and consoles, Electronic Arts almost doubled its revenue, to $2.1 billion, in the 12 months through September 2002, the latest figures available. It posted profits of $237 million for the same period, versus a loss of $8 million in the previous 12 months.
Electronic Arts prospers because its hits, like Madden Football, play on anything, from the Sony PlayStation to Microsoft's Xbox. Its Sims series dominates the PC. This year, Mr. Probst's pricey strategy of buying the rights to produce games based on hit movie series like ''Harry Potter'' and ''The Lord of the Rings'' has proved brilliant.

Review by:
stephen bunford
on Feb. 20, 2011 :
The book is full of new and interesting information with a comprehensive and invaluable genealogy. Well researched and well written but has quite a few typos which get annoying (e.g. every "such" or "succession" is written as "suc.h" or "suc.cession"). In the genealogy there are a few typos as well (e.g.Penelope Thompson is said to have been born in 1996 three days before the birth of her daughter). Despite this it is a book that anyone interested in this subject must have.

My 5yr old is at that stage where he is constantly using potty talk. "poophead", "dummy" ..things like that. It's driving me nuts. He even has my 2yr old saying them now. I have been trying to give time outs but it seems like he is constantly in time out. So, it's obviously not working. I was thinking of having jar's with marbles. If they say a "bad" word they get one removed. Then at the end of the week if they have a certain amount left they would get a treat. But I would like to hear if anyone has any other ideas or things that worked for them. Thanks!
Need ideas about stopping potty talk....
Momma to Logan (5yrs) 8/17/05 and Garrett (2yr) 6/17/08.

If time outs don't work then what about taking something away from him? Maybe for every bad word he says he loses some tv time. Start with say 2 hours total for the day and take away 15 minutes each time. You could have a little chart you mark off. If he goes over the 2 hours (with potty talk) then take time away from the next day. Obviously this means you will save most tv for the end of the day but if he is at school most of the day and tv is before and after dinner time it would work. The message will become very clear when you turn a tv show off after only 15 minutes, despite the fact that it is not over, and tell him that because of his bad language his tv time is up fo the day.
Or the marble idea, which would be a negative consequence but with a potentially positive result if he has marble left. I did something similar with my dd for behavior. The only problem was when we got to zero marbles and she was still acting up. I couldn't exactly go to negative marbles, and rolling it over to the next week lessened its impact. Just something to think about.
When you give him tmeouts is it right away? Are they enforced every single time? Are they in a boring place such as the corner or hallway and for 5 minutes? Granted it may not be enough punishment for him, but to work time outs need to be given consistently every...single...time, immediately. No second chances, no excuses, no getting out early, no playing or talking in timeout (or this adds time).

We have been having the same problem here to the point that he got behavior points taken away at school. We started a tally sheet here where if he got a tally mark he would lose some of his video game priviledge for the day....more than one he lost all of his priviledges for the day and if he got 5 or more in a week he lost priviledges for an entire week. It only took loosing his videogames for one day for him to shape up....since then he hasn't been using the words anymore which makes me think that he was doing it to see our reaction...
Mommy to Phillip 8/12/2005 and Patrick 9/9/2008
Kaleb used to do this a couple months ago... at first, I attempted to curtail it with the usual consequence, which is time-out; but that never worked so finally, ONE TIME, I had to resort to a lil' squirt of handsoap in the mouth and that worked like a charm. With the exception of one or two times, he has not used unfavorable words since.
I'm not suggesting this is appropriate for your families or that it was a good idea, but I had had it and I'm really glad that is all it took.

My daughter and step son have been saying all sorts of things lately. I don't have a clue where they are getting it from. I trued taking things away, timeout, etc all the usual stuff. What seems to work like a charm is just dipping my finger in white vinegar then wiping in their mouth, Havent heard any of those since I started doing that. It works on talking back too. vinegar tastes really bad but is really good for you so i prefer it over soap. Oh and since they are 5 yrs old I make them wait 5 minutes before they can have a drink to get rid of the taste.
We battled this one too. Our rule now, if they want to use "potty" words, then go in the bathroom, close the door and go to town! It was fun the first few times and quite a fun event, not so much anymore so they've given up.
As for "bad" words, we try not to react too much because we know that's their goal. We let them know that XXXX is a bad word and even though they may hear others say it, it's not ok for anyone in our family to say that word. If they say it again, they get a time out.
Our 2005 DD is on board and understands these rules. Our 2007 boy still tests from time to time but with the consistency of our discipline, he too is finally "getting" it.
I still think it's crazy how at some point in time, *someone* made up a new word and decided it meant something bad so we can't say it. Really??? So silly IMO but that's the way society works
another mom :)
I stole an idea from Super Nanny, which was to let DS say the potty talk words but to go in the bathroom and close the door first. He can say them as much as he wants to in there but with no audience and no reaction, plus taking the forbidden out of it, it gets old fast.
Every once in a while, he starts with the potty talk and I remind him to go in the bathroom to use those words. Works for us.
It is the debate team after all, not the pat you on the head team.~bobbylite doitright
Wanna chat it up with DT members? There's a group for that!
We've also used the bathroom trick. He's welcome to say them as much as he wants if he's alone in the bathroom with the door shut. Outside the bathroom, it's not appropriate and will get first a reminder to use the bathroom for potty talk, and if we get defiance there then he gets the time out.

When the Plantronics Control Panel (PCP) "Action to Media Player" option "When a call begins" is set to 'Do nothing' or 'Mute' and the option "When a call ends" is set to 'Do nothing' or 'Unmute', Windows Media Player (WMP) still pauses during a Lync, Skype or WebEx Connect call, and play resumes when the call ends.

With the 50th anniversary of ADB as a backdrop, this event will examine how the bank is adapting to the dramatic changes in Asia, and what its role in the region should be in the years ahead. Does ADB financing still matter in a region that is seemingly awash in capital? How do the bank's leading shareholders like the United States and Japan see the institution's role going forward? Are new institutions like the AIIB partners or rivals, and how are they causing the ADB to adapt?
Mexico and the United States have lacked a bilateral agreement to regulate cross-border labor mobility since 1965. Since that time, unlawful migration from Mexico to the U.S. has exploded. Almost half of the 11.7 million Mexican-born individuals living in the U.S. do not have legal authorization. This vast black market in labor has harmed both countries. These two neighboring countries, with an indisputably shared destiny, can come together to work out a better way.
In many developing countries including South Africa, there is a stale debate regarding poverty over priorities between economic growth and equalizing incomes. South Africa's Centre for the Development and Enterprise (CDE) has been exploring the advantages of a different approach to the poverty debate—one that emphasizes opportunity.
Measuring the returns to government capital is difficult because the services of government capital typically are provided free of charge. This implies that, unlike returns to private factors of production, returns to government capital cannot be inferred from observed factor payments.
Millions of people live with the risk of rapid-onset disasters like cyclones, slow-onset disasters like drought, or the threat of conflict. We often wait for these crises to develop to collect money from donors, a delay that costs lives and dramatically raises the costs of responding. As a result, there was an $8 billion gap between what frontline agencies requested to tackle crises last year and what they received.
Please join us for a special event to mark CGD's 15th anniversary, when IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde will give a speech highlighting the critical role of global collaboration to address the issues facing low-income developing countries. Last year, the international community came together to agree on historic goals to drive development across the globe through 2030. Today those commitments are now even more urgent as the global economy faces serious challenges - low growth, weak commodity prices, financial market volatility, and geopolitical uncertainties. The implications for the poorest nations are stark.
Is there a way to improve health care services amidst the limited physical and human capital in some developing countries? In this seminar, David Evans and Mario Macis will discuss the findings from their field experiment in Nigeria, where 80 primary health centers were provided with varying degrees of management training from SafeCare, an international organization that designs quality of care standards specific to health facilities in low- and middle-income countries. Through their experiment, the authors were able to differentiate between the effects of solely providing assessments and feedback and the effects of providing assessments, feedback, and implementation support to facilities for meeting the quality standards set by SafeCare.
CGD Europe Seminar - Localising Development: Donor Approaches to Building Country Ownership (London, UK)
Donor governments are increasingly utilising direct partnerships with governments and local organisations as a way to deliver sustainable results. Whether called country ownership, aid localisation, or sustainable development, the evidence base around localised approaches to foreign assistance remains slim. New research from the Center for Global Development explores how and when ownership approaches can be effective, and what tools and mechanisms development agencies have at their disposal to implement such an approach.
Join us for a seminar with economist Markus Haacker, who will discuss the motivations behind and findings from his forthcoming book, The Economics of the Global Response to HIV/AIDS. As in the book, Haacker will review the global impact of and response to HIV/AIDS to date. He will also address the long-term financial liability of the HIV/AIDS response and discuss the design of HIV/AIDS programs in light of the changing health and financial consequences of the disease.
Gender, Civil Registration and Vital Statistics, and Legal Identification: Where Are the Gaps and How Can We Close Them?
Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) is a fundamental data collection system for countries and a critical enabler of access to services and participation in civic life for individuals. However, women face unique barriers to accessing CRVS systems, including distance, cost, and regulations that place demands on women for documentation not required from men.
Public Private Partnerships in Health: Responding to Country Needs and the Universal Health Coverage Agenda
Illegal disposal of toxic waste has become an issue of concern in both developing and developed countries. Recent anecdotal evidence has highlighted that hazardous waste is shipped from developed countries and illegally dumped in Africa, in particular in the area of the Horn of Africa, during road construction works. The potential health and economic consequences on the local population are devastating.
What should tomorrow's aid agencies look like in a landscape where the global goal is to ensure sustainable development? In the past, the role of aid has mainly been to "finance" specific projects or services, with a strong sense of donor identity and marked projections of donor interests. A modern approach to development assistance, however, focuses on the catalytic role of institutions and their capacity to mobilize expertise and resources towards shared objectives.
Please join us for a special event marking the release of Choosing the Hero: My Improbable Journey and the Rise of Africa's First Woman President by K. Riva Levinson. The book is an insider's account of Riva's longtime relationship with Liberia's Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, two women warriors in battle to help a nation recover from war, and a window into the strange policy trenches of Washington DC.
Through its Gender and Development Program, CGD is examining donor institutions' various approaches to promoting gender equality and tracking gender-related results. Join Senior Fellows Mayra Buvinic and Charles Kenny for the next step in this research area: an event focused on how multilateral banks (MDBs) integrate gender across their operations and measure their gender equality-related impacts.
Tackling Antimicrobial Resistance in Developing Countries: The Role of Aid and International Agencies
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens future growth and prosperity, as well as health. Without global action, the UK's Review on Antimicrobial Resistance, led by Lord Jim O'Neill, estimates that an additional 10 million people will die every year from drug-resistant infections and the global economy will experience a loss of $100 trillion by 2050. The impact from rising drug resistance will be felt worldwide, hitting low- and middle-income countries hardest.
Evidence shows that when women have the opportunity to serve as political leaders, governments are not only more inclusive but also perform better. Women politicians are shown to champion policies improving health services and education systems, and they serve as positive role models influencing girls' career aspirations and educational attainment. But across the world, women's rates of political leadership remain lower than men's. What are the obstacles standing in the way of women's equal political participation? And what can be done to overcome these obstacles?

Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management XIX: Volume 412. MRS Proceedings
- April 1996
- 937 Pages
- Cambridge University Press
Safe and effective management of nuclear waste provides a broad range of challenges for materials science. Waste processing, waste form and engineered barrier properties, interactions between engineered and geological systems, radiation effects, chemistry and transport of waste species, and long-term predictions of repository performance are just some of the scientific problems facing modern society. This book, the nineteenth in a very successful series from MRS, offers an international and interdisciplinary perspective on the issues, and features developments in both fundamental and applied areas. Topics include: excess plutonium dispositioning; spent nuclear fuel; glass waste forms; ceramic and crystalline waste forms; cement waste forms; waste processing; waste container materials; speciation and sorption; bentonite barriers; flow and transport; repository site characterization; natural analogs and performance assessment.

hi friends...........does anyone here have a clear idea of verilog..so that the program for primitive polynomial search can be explained?
Welcome to the forum. I have never heard of it. What is it?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Initially a random matrix is to be formed(with ones < or = the no of xor gates based on the architecture in my project)eg. if xor gates=3 only 3 ones or 3-1 ones in matrix.
The problem is as far as I have referred matrix forms cant be used in verilog.The next step is to find det(mat)=0 ;else repeat to step 1.
Then determine the characteristic polynomial of the matrix.Check if its reducible else go to step1.
Finally perform the full primitive test . Can u help me with this?
I still do not know what verilog is. Can you tell me?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Lenovo IdeaCentre Horizon 27-inch tabletop all-in-one PC pictures and hands-onPocket-lint
There are times when computer manufacturers go a bit bonkers just because they can. The Lenovo IdeaCentre Horizon falls into one such category. Or at least the way we got to see it at this year's Consumer Electronics Show made it seem that way.
This 27-inch touchscreen "tabletop" computer - it would be cruel to call it a "laptop" really - is certainly quite the behemoth. And this is no concept. Due for launch this very summer, the IdeaCentre Horizon ought to set back prospective purchasers around $1,700 according to Lenovo - although we have an itching suspicion that it might be a touch more when it comes to market in the UK.
When we first saw the Lenovo Horizon in action it had people gathered around it playing "virtual" air hockey. The Horizon comes with four removable controllers that can be placed on to the screen's surface and used like joysticks. Certainly an arcade-style bout of fun for all the family, or, for more conventional use, the 10-point touchscreen runs Windows 8 smoothly too.
But Lenovo's wish isn't to push the Windows 8 interface to the fore. Instead the Horizon loads into the company's own Aura which is essentially a Windows 8 app that the machine can boot directly into. Think Minority Report on a tabletop and you're most of the way there. It's quite a lot of fun, and makes the most of Windows 8's pinch-to-enlarge and click-to-drag touch possibilities while draggering a scattering of photos, notes and other media around the desk. Still, it's not necessarily as well-worn a set-up as more-established, current systems.
While the IdeaCentre Horizon may look like a mains-only wired machine, it can also be disconnected and its battery will last around two hours, although at its given 6kgs of heft we can't imagine many people sensibly carting one around.
Fortunately the Horizon's rear hinge mechanism is rather clever and can easily support that weight. The device can sit flat like a tabletop or be pulled upwards to sit at a variety of angles - all the while the support bracket seems to elevate it like a hydraulic lift. Not bad going for a spring mechanism.
We're probably overselling the Horizon as a totally "out there" device, but there's far more practicality to it than may first meet the eye. Sweep away all the air hockey stuff and leave the device desktop-mounted at all times and it's an attractive looker complete with enough power from its Intel Core processor and a decent 1080p resolution screen that also looks great. No Gorilla Glass though, which seems like a significant oversight to us.
Add a mouse, keyboard and stand - those these will cost extra - and it's closer to a more "usual" Windows 8 touchscreen, albeit with the power and physical size to do slightly more crazy things should you so wish.
Fun stuff.

Residents in the community who might need a little help providing Christmas for their families may pick up applications at the Matthew 25:40 office located 432 W. Court St., in Dyersburg.
Matthew Executive Director Amy McDonald said organizations throughout the West Tennessee region will work together to see that families in need of assistance receive aid during the upcoming holiday season. In order to help the most residents, local organizations will cross-reference their applications to ensure that aid is distributed through only one Christmas assistance program per family.
"There are a lot of families needing help this year, so we need to try to make it fair for everyone," said McDonald. "We will cross reference with other organizations to eliminate double dipping."
Applications may be picked up anytime from the Matthew 25:40 office located at 432 W. Court St., in Dyersburg. But the forms must be returned between 8 a.m. and noon, Monday through Friday. Applications need to be submitted with the required documentation by Dec. 1.
"Matthew 25:40 does not actually do the Christmas assistance, ourselves, but works with individuals, organizations and churches who want to sponsor a child/family for Christmas," said McDonald. "The sooner the application is turned in, the sooner we can get the child's information to the sponsor."

Definición de Arabic numeral en inglés:
Arabic numeral
Any of the numerals 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Arabic numerals reached western Europe (replacing Roman numerals) through Arabia by about ad 1200 but probably originated in India.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- The book, which went on to be widely copied and imitated, introduced the Hindu-Arabic place-valued decimal system and the use of Arabic numerals into Europe.
- Now, the Arabs cannot claim that the zero was an original concept, but without their incorporation of it into mathematics we probably wouldn't have it now, just as we probably wouldn't have Arabic numerals.
- Mathematics is an area in which one often must master multiple, related symbol systems, such as Arabic numerals and names for ordinal and cardinal numbers.

CP eHandbook: Dealing With Water Challenges
For chemical processors, the use of water in their processing can correlate to significant costs. Cost, coupled with an increasing focus on the environmental impact of both water usage and wastewater creation, are challenging processors to take a closer look at both their consumption of water and production of wastewater. Wide-ranging water optimization efforts, from fixing pipe leaks to minimizing cooling tower blowdown, are providing significant savings to chemical makers, but there's more. In this ChemicalProcessing Water/Wastewate eHandbook we take a look at how to deal with water challenges including:
• Reducing water consumption and increase recycling – including examples of achievement and strategies from BASF, Air Products, Eli Lilly & Co, and Pfizer

Control System Security: Interacting with IT
Operations staff and plant engineers also have a keen interest in the security of control networks. They are responsible for the reliability, availability, safety and integrity of the process. Their facilities are the ones producing products and earning revenues, so their concerns, priorities and knowledge must also be considered when determining security options.10/15/2004
Continuous Valve Monitoring for Product Loss Prevention, Emission Reduction and ROI
One of the challenges that companies have faced in implementation of continuous monitoring systems is the lack of infrastructure for sensing and data collection. The devices to be monitored are widely dispersed throughout plants with large areas, have no existing power or signal transmitting wire infrastructure, so the capital costs associated with the power and communication services have historically prohibited continuous monitoring. This white paper will unearth best practices to prevent product loss, reduce emissions and ensure ROI.05/26/2010
Continuous Pressure and Vacuum Filtration and Washing of Organic Cellulose and Biomass Products

Consider the Unique Requirements of Chemical Industries When Selecting ERP Software
Support for off spec materials, formula management, changeovers, parallel operations, lot trace and trace, unlimited unit of measure conversions, is key.
There are a host of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain management applications available to chemical manufacturersthe challenge is selecting the right one that offers a baseline product with industry-specific functionality. Many ERP applications available today are not industry-specific enough for chemical manufacturers and require major modifications, or, one must select from an industry template that may or may not fit specific needs.
There is also the chance that the software provider may not exist in two to three years (e.g., it may be acquired and the products future may become unknown), or the provider may not be financially secure, adding long-term risk.07/17/2009
Closed System Technology Drives the Trend Toward Safer, More Cost-Efficient Chemical Dispensing
In dozens of industries and in millions of applications around the world, dangerous chemicals are transferred from their original shipping containers into smaller jugs or buckets or applied to other end-use processes. Historically, the predominant dispensing method in many of these applications has been through an open system where the liquid is poured out of the container. With a poured system, the container is often flipped on its side and the liquid is poured into a secondary container. The user then just carries the bucket to wherever it needs to go. A mental image of this technique quickly reveals its potential dangers and inefficiencies.02/13/2009
Clean-in-place operation for thin-cake filtration technologies
