Can't be - it works
Fair point... there's never an argument against validating inputs. Still, I'd personally consider an empty string to be a dumbass input rather than an invalid one, and just handle it gracefully... If they started passing objects or integers to the function, then I'd start throwing errors.

You may want to re-read the article. The 500 error occurs when "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is the search term, not an empty string. Or do you mean that "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is a magic invalid term?

I'll buy that. What probably happened here is the API devs followed the path of least resistance. If frits was correct about the cause of the error, it'd be more work to handle an empty string and no work to just allow an error that shouldn't occur if the API is used appropriately (inputs within the domain and whatnot).

I also liked the perfect demonstration of Muphry's Law I just gave in the previous post, too - which, of course, was posted right before the registration went through. Awesome. Post about how people need to preview before submitting: you should really preview before submitting, yourself.

Another good test case is a string containing a single (... or multiple) Unicode Byte Order Marks, which is the encoding of character 0xFEFF, a "Zero width non breaking space", that is, it has no glyph, takes up not space, and does not affect formatting; and may be stripped from the string suring processing AFTER the string is checked to not be empty.

Not if there's additional logic embedded in the search function, like setting up parts of the search results page.
Sure, but if the search string is empty, why would you even display a search results page? Shouldn't you display an empty search box with an error saying "please try again"?

Probably because that was above their head, or they didn't want to touch more than three lines of code to fix the defect.
I've worked with people who would return an object from a GetById method regardless of whether it was found in the DB or not. They would simply add a property "IsValid", or some equally shitty named member and check that all over the place rather than checking for null.
It's amazing what you take for granted (common sense, able to dress yourself in the morning, etc.), which some people simply lack.
After eading theses comments, I'm starting to get the feeling that most developers are seriously flawed, passive aggressive losers.

Hey! Take that back! We're not passive-agressive...
I doubt showing an error message and adding an "else" before the search method would require much more code than setting the search string to "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" did, but point taken.
That's more-or-less the point I've been trying to make. The author's excuse was gross incompetence, not a broken API.

Actually, there is merit in the idea of returning an object regardless. It all depends on your needs (or your team's needs).
TRWTF is returning null, but not checking for null before trying to use the value as an object.

The apostrophe and decades
Most of the time when you're talking about decades, for example, the 1980s, 1970s or 1960s etc, you should not place an apostrophe before the 's'. Lots of people do, but have the courage of your convictions and refrain. Just say no.
The following are correct (all without an apostrophe):
"Patti Smith lived in New York in the late 1960s and early 1970s."
"The 1960s saw many changes in society."
"Shirts with big collars were popular in the 1970s."
"In the 1950s, women were expected to stay at home."
If you need some basic information about the possessive apostrophe, go to: The possessive apostrophe. Part 1: the basics.
The apostrophe and initialisms
The apostrophe and irregular plural nouns (e.g. 'children's toys')
Charles' crown or Charles's crown?
7 Responses
Here's an interesting punctuation issue that came up on a photo of an outdoor ashtray in Devon, UK: The attached caution sign said "No if's, no butts." Someone flagged the apostrophe. I think it's justified, since "if" is not a noun that you could pluralize and "ifs" just looks odd and hard to read.
The sign is obviously a play on the expression "No if's, and's or but's." You could write it without the apostrophes, as well, since most of us know the expression and would make sense of it.
But then you'd have to make up a new rule when talking about "Minding your ps and qs," "Dotting your is and crossing your ts," and many similar expressions. Saying "ps and qs" is even harder to justify than "ifs," because the letters P and Q are in fact nouns that could be pluralized–yet "ps and qs" looks horrid to me.
One middle-ground solution is to italicize the letter (P, Q, etc.) only, leaving the plural "s" in regular font. A lot of effort when an apostrophe would work as well, huh?
Today, I purchased a Collins Gem Dictionairy and Thesaurus as the other ones I had were out of date. There is a section where it talks about spelling, punctuation etc.
And the apostrophe with decades came up. Just wanted to confirm whether this is correct.
"An apostrophe is used in front of two figures referring to a year or decade.
French students rioted in '68 [short for 1968]
He worked as a schoolteacher during the 60s and early '90s.
They are suggesting shortening the year and placing the apostrophe before rather than yours where you put it after the year in full.
Any thoughts?
P.S I'm becoming more alert on these things more than ever!

CARBON CLIFF -- Looking at Scharie Freeman's water bill, you might think she just installed an Olympic-size pool at her duplex.
When Ms. Freeman opened her January water bill, she was shocked to see her typical bill, which usually ranges between $130 to $170 for three months, had jumped to $3,653.56 for water, garbage and sewer fees.
The water usage on the bill states Ms. Freeman and her 8-year-old grandson who lives with her went through 732,540 gallons over the billing period -- or roughly 100,000 gallons more than what would fill an Olympic-size pool.
In addition to Ms. Freeman's January 2008 bill, the tenant who lives in the rental portion of her side-by-side duplex also received a bill for $614.28.
Even though the bill is a big surprise to Ms. Freeman, village clerk Karen Hopkins said the bill is accurate. The village is willing to work out a payment plan, she said, but the debt is Ms. Freeman's responsibility.
The spike in Ms. Freeman's bill partially stems from the meter in her home -- which records the accurate usage -- and its failure to communicate properly with the outside remote that is read quarterly by the village.
Ms. Hopkins said exterior remotes can report inaccurately for a variety of reasons, including being hit, turned off, temporarily removed, etc. Buildup of minerals also can skew readings.
"A lot of them are over-billed because the outside remote gets shooken up," she said, adding when that happens residents receive a credit.
Ms. Freeman said prior to last month, when the village replaced her water meter because of its age, she had never before had an interior meter reading since she purchased the home in April 1997. When the new meter was installed, the accuracy issue was identified and her bill was adjusted.
According to Ms. Hopkins, the village does not yet have a set schedule for doing interior meter readings and it is working on updating meters in the village with exterior remotes that are able to directly report the interior meter usage.
Ms. Hopkins said she has no record of when an interior meter reading was last done at Ms. Freeman's property, but it could have been more than 25 years ago. If that's the case, Ms. Freeman has only lived in the house for roughly half that time period.
Regardless of that possibility, Ms. Hopkins said state law dictates Ms. Freeman is responsible for the bill because she is the current owner.
Without a more recent interior meter reading, there's no telling how long the outside remote wasn't reporting accurate water usage. The current bill could reflect decades of undetected water usage.
Staff at the village hall said ideally every time a resident receives a water bill, they should verify it with their inside meter to be sure of its accuracy.
"I don't even know how to read a meter," said Ms. Freeman.
A leak which was repaired at Ms. Freeman's property in October 2005 also could be a factor in her sky-high water bill. Ms. Freeman said she believes the leak was repaired quickly and the village stated a record of how much water was lost at that time was not available.
If a significant amount of water was lost at that time, it might just now be showing up on Ms. Freeman's bill more than three years later.
The only other factor Ms. Freeman can think of is that she had one of her adult children and a grandchild living with her for a couple months over the summer. She said their stay wasn't very long and any increased water usage should have showed up on a prior bill.
Whatever the explanation is for the bill, if it is not paid by Jan. 24, the village will increase the amount owed by 10 percent. That would bring Ms. Freeman's portion of the bill to $4,018.92. After that she'd get two late notices with $2.50 service fees on both. If not paid by the end of February, the village could place a lien on the property, which over one year's time would add $725 in interest to the debt.
Water could be shut off at her property if a second lien is filed.
Ms. Freeman said she thinks the village might be padding everyone's water bill and she's put a flier up in the post office to see if others are having similar issues.
"I don't like to get ripped off," she said. "I work hard for what I got and right now I don't have much."
Ms. Freeman raised three children, two of which had special needs, as a single mom and is now raising one grandchild in her home and she's helping another grandchild part-time.
Her career has been interrupted more than once due to health problems. She had to leave her job at ARC as head of housekeeping when chemical inhalation burned her lungs and mouth. She also lost her fight for worker's compensation.
At her next job she lost her job after a fall required surgery and forced her out of work for more than a year and a half. Today she's back to work part-time assisting elderly in their home, but her hours have recently been cut because her client was moved to a nursing home.
Adding to her troubles, recently her car had transmission problems and the furnace in her rental quit working.
Monica Reighard said her sister, Ms. Freeman, has been through the mill. She's working to help her sister contact an attorney and she's inquired about bringing in a private meter reader to get a second opinion. Ms. Reighard said the request was denied by the village because they own the equipment.
"Something has to be done about this," Ms. Reighard said. "If the meters belong to them, then they should be responsible to keep them updated and responsible for making sure they are working."
Attorney Hector Lareau, who practices some municipal law and is not representing Ms. Freeman, echoed that perspective. He said the village likely stands in the same shoes as any other contractor utility provider in the sense that AT&T is responsible for monitoring a users long-distance bill.
"I understand from her perspective this is a big unwelcomed surprise," he said. "On the other hand, the meter that gives the correct reading is the one that gives us the big bill. Somebody used the water, just because it's a surprise that you have to pay for it late in the day doesn't mean you escape liability."
He said when Ms. Freeman purchased her home, there was likely language in the contract that assigned her future house liabilities. On the other hand, he said, "She might be able to go scouting after the person she bought it from and say, 'Hey, some of this is your nickels.'"
From Mr. Lareau's vantage point, he said the village might want to reconsider denying the request for an outside meter to check out the situation.
"We were accidentally whoops wrong all that time and now we know the right answer," he said. "It seems to me they should be willing to step up and prove we have the right answer ... If you are dropping a $3,600 bill on someone, you should be willing to look into it."
Check those water meters Others with water issues?
Scharie Freeman will be speaking with public works officials on Tuesday at 6 p.m. about her water issues. She's looking for others who might be having similar issues to speak out as well. Anyone interested can read her flier in the local post office or attend Tuesday's meeting.
How similar towns keep up with accurate water readings:
Carbon Cliff serves 900 homes. Some homes have interior meters and exterior remotes that can be shooken up or experience other difficulties which can lead to inaccurate readings. The village is working on updating all homes with the exterior remotes that transmits data from the interior directly. The number of homes without updates was not available.
Hampton serves 765 homes. Staff said all homes have exterior remotes that transmits data directly form the interior meter reading. Interior meter readings are not done becuase it is not necessary with these type of meters.
Rapids City serves 450 homes. Staff members say all homes have a remote reader, but the town is working on installing radio reads at every house. Rapids City only has 100 more homes to install the radio equipment, after which time staff can drive past a home and collect needed data.

In his article "Negligence and foster children -- who is responsible?" in the March 2003 issue of Fostering Families Today, Daniel Pollack, M.S.W, J.D. wrote:
"There are some states that have enacted legislation or have statutes or public policies providing for state-funded liability insurance for foster parents. Because commercial insurance companies are unlikely to insure individual foster parents, state-funded insurance policies provide needed protection. To guard against limitless claims, most states have set boundaries on the protection they provide. For example, Maryland sets a maximum award of $5,000, with payments exceeding $2,000 requiring approval. Iowa will not pay liability damages exceeding $300,000 for a single foster home for all claims arising out of one or more incidents during a calendar year. And Minnesota limits payment to $250,000 for each incident."
And the National Foster Parent Association(NFPA)has been a long-time supporter of liability insurance for foster parents who it calls "volunteers who open their doors to unknown liability each time they take a new foster child." They state further, "NFPA believes that since the agency retains complete legal guardianship of these children, injuries damages and thefts against any person or property caused or committed by the agency's wards should be the agency's responsibility. NFPA strongly feels that state or local agencies should provide public and private liability coverage, including additional automobile insurance, for all foster parents."
Sample Policy Coverage
One foster parent liability policy describes its coverage as including:

Now-immortalized words on how to prioritize your marketing efforts
Once upon a time there was First Marketing Dude, and he told First Business Owner Dude, "You know, you get 2 sales out of every 100 people who walk in here, so why don't we bring in 1000?" Since then, billions of dollars have been wasted on advertising and marketing models that miss the mark. In our more charitable moments, we'd like to drop-kick First Marketing Dude out of the stadium. Send more traffic when you can't convert the traffic you already get?When our own Howie Kaplan, the Senior Conversion Analyst here who performs Conversion Assessments all day long, came across an article detailing search engine optimization and marketing firms' complaints about their clients, he blew a gasket … then blogged his reaction.

I just baked this banana bread and I liked it very much. It was soft and kind of fluffy inside. I changed a few ingredients because I didn't have them in the house. Instead of butter, I used olive oil, instead of sweetener I used raw organic sugar and instead of four bananas I used two (that was all on hand) so I had to add some water to the batter. It still came out great and I would use it again. Next time maybe add nuts to the batter.

I baked this as an alternative to birthday cake for the diabetics in my boyfriend's family. I am so disappointed by this recipe because it turn out very flat, and very different to the photo. I have made "normal" banana bread a number of times with great sucess so I was excited when I found this. I followed the recipe to the letter. Honestly, I am not sure where I went wrong. I am a bit embarrassed to serve this to his family tomorrow. :(
Carmen2078 Posted: 06/19/12
This was a simple & quick to make recipe. The aroma, the initial flavor was very good. The texture good have been a bit more moist. The only thing I didnt like was the after taste of using the artificial sweetner. It's hard for me to describe. Would I do this recipe again? Absolutely but probably use a bit more banana that was even riper for the sweetness & maybe some unsweetned apple sauce to add moisture. If anyone has another suggestion, I'm all ears!

Group projects? No problem!
While being at Marshall for more than two years, I've had my fair share of group projects. With the strong emphasis on teamwork that mirrors the team structure of many businesses, Marshall trains its students to be able to adapt to different types of people and different ways of thinking.
For example, I've been assigned several case studies in my Marshall classes where I work with a group of 4 or 5 people to analyze a situation, identify the problems, and assess the possible alternatives.
In my accounting classes, I've had to do several team presentations that require not only good content, but good delivery.
In two and a half years here at USC, I've dealt with both hard-working groups and unmotivated groups. Some projects have been a breeze, while others a struggle. But overall, these experiences working in groups better prepares us for the real world where we will be forced to work in teams consisting of many different personalities and communication styles.

Since leaving the classroom recently, after thirty-some years in the delightful company of children, I have spent a considerable portion of my time leading the development of the parent education programs for our school. It has given me a new and different joy, and a great appreciation for parents. It is an honor to work so closely with parents who are the primary educators of our children, who are the children's models, their supporters, and their greatest source of love and admiration.
An Open Letter To New Elementary Parents
Soon enough our early elementary classrooms will be filling once again with children excited to begin the new school year. Among the happy faces will be those of the youngest children, those who are making the leap into the second plane of development and experiencing for the first time the elementary environment that we will have so carefully prepared for them. In all the excitement of welcoming the new children, let us not forget their parents – for their parents, too, may be new to the elementary and just as much in transition as their children.
The Value of Not Knowing
With a dismissive gesture of the hand, Paula replied, "Nah, don't ask her. She doesn't know anything! I saw a chemistry book in the library, let's look there."

Search a suitable generic or branded drugs, if you could not find the prescribed medicine. This site does not supply any medicines. It contains prices for information purposes only.
You should consult a doctor about the dosage before using this medicine!
Aspirin (USAN), also known as acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains, as an antipyretic to reduce fever, and as an anti-inflammatory medication.
Aspirin also has an antiplatelet effect by inhibiting the production of thromboxane, which under normal circumstances binds platelet molecules together to repair damaged blood vessels. This is why aspirin is used in long-term, low doses to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and blood clot formation in people at high risk for developing blood clots. It has also been established that low doses of aspirin may be given immediately after a heart attack to reduce the risk of another heart attack or of the death of cardiac tissue.
The main undesirable side effects of aspirin are gastrointestinal ulcers, stomach bleeding, and tinnitus, especially in higher doses. In children and adolescents, aspirin is no longer used to control flu-like symptoms or the symptoms of chickenpox or other viral illnesses, because of the risk of Reye's syndrome.
Aspirin was the first discovered member of the class of drugs known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), not all of which are salicylates, although they all have similar effects and most have inhibition of the enzyme cyclooxygenase as their mechanism of action. Today, aspirin is one of the most widely used medications in the world, with an estimated 40,000 tonnes of it being consumed each year. In countries where Aspirin is a registered trademark owned by Bayer, the generic term is acetylsalicylic acid (ASA).

There are several industries that utilize the use of barcode scanner devices. These industries come across these scanners to get an indispensable portion of their day by day operations. Without these people, their everyday responsibilities would become additional laborious and please take a longer time frame to complete. Even if you may never even stop to take into consideration how your job can be without a reader, if you have ever endured problems with your current scanners malfunctioning you've got had a smaller taste of how your career without scanners can be.Think about working in a store without a scanner which would be typically used to scan each and every item that a customer buys. Not only would you have to punch in every single number off of the barcode by hand, but you would have to do this over and over again for every item. And think about how many times you would miss a number and then have to punch in the entire code all over again. Check out lines would be miles long and customers would be completely restless. Each and every day would be a struggle to work inside of any retail store without scanning equipment.
Now if you work in a warehouse, think about how hard it would be to perform inventory without a scanner. How would you know what was inside each and every box? You would have to write down all of the numbers on the code being extremely careful not to make a mistake. This would take forever; your inventory control measures would never be completely accurate.
Scanners increase productivity, and speed up the time in which it takes to perform a particular task. New qr code technology improves these measures even more. If your business is looking for ways to get even faster results, then qrcode scanners should definitely be something to consider looking into. These scanners are unique because they have extreme scanning capabilities and can speed up your check out or your warehouse day to day operations.
SYMBOL 21-61261-01 Barcode Scanner Battery With out scanning equipment, a vacation to the food store would require several extreme patience. Plenty of stores would undoubtedly come back to the old way of sticking price tag words on every merchandise. But, what would certainly happen if in which sticker fell away from? And how would certainly the store owners record what they sold each day? Retail stores and also warehouse locations would certainly suffer tremendously minus the invention of the particular bar code code reader.

Nasty surprise for all laptop owners. When migrating from Windows XP to the new Windows Vista the notebook's battery is suddenly much earlier limp. Many users even report that the performance of laptop batteries is suddenly dropped by 50%.
The reason: the beautiful, colorful and transparent Aero interface of Windows Vista is a real power hogs. Windows Vista sees it but very beautiful, but also consumes significantly more power. For the 3D features of the Aero interface is the graphics board of the computer in the truest sense of the word sweat. The 3D effects require a lot of power from the card – which costs power accordingly.
That's when a desktop computer, no problem. The additional power requirement puts the power of ordinary PCs rigid. In a notebook on battery power, the battery goes much faster but in the knee, since the graphics processor with enabled Aero virtually always moves along at full speed. The result is an increased current consumption.
Therefore our advice if you are running Windows Vista on a laptop. Turn off Aero, as long as the notebook is running on battery power. Turning off Aero is very fast, regardless of which version of Vista (Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Ultimate, Windows Vista Business, Windows Vista Enterprise):
1. Open the Control Panel (Start | Control Panel).
2. Click Appearance and Personalization.
3. Click to change color scheme.
4. Select the Color scheme list, select Windows Vista Basic.
5. Confirm your selection with OK.
Windows Vista is now available without Aero interface. The OS is no longer as chic, but still nice to see. Very important is that Windows is now much less power, "eats" and the notebook's battery lasts longer. Once you hang the laptop back to the AC adapter or plug into the docking station, you can enable Aero yes again and enjoy the Aero eye-candy.
By the way: Turning off Aero on your notebook's another practical side effect. Since the graphics card of the portable computer without Aero "plow" is no longer so much need, and less heat is generated inside the device. With the pleasant side effect that the laptop fans run less or almost not start. The laptop is much quieter.
The first reason: iPad 2. No, consider me no promoter of the new -gasp- drop-dead gorgeous tablet created by Apple to give your finger-tips an all new reason to exist. I'm just… bemused and captivated by the looks. In true sense, laptops have been around for more than a decade now, and they (those companies which are still hopeful that their laptops will outplay tablets someday) should realize, it's enough. Unless one is out to break records for typing maximum words per minute, tablets are second to none, an experience of the best of both worlds that they offer. They're a lucrative bet, for inside the package, along with the tablet itself, comes for free a green-eyed neighbor, a replacement for a beautiful but nagging girlfriend, your best friends' and colleagues' enviable glances, functionality of a full-fledged laptop, and not to forget, apps. Does that make tablets the next best thing? True that.
Now, those who get all the fuss about the tit-bits of modern technology that have been foisted upon us, need to read this article with double the concentration. The question is simple, with no direct answer. Going by looks, tablet PCs make your heart melt. Working on the same, that's tricky, and difficult, and messy, and definitely, not easy. But then, if you're out to find out reasons to justify why did you buy a tablet instead of a laptop, this article certainly gives you some points to prattle about. Allow me to put forth a cluster of those words and phrases that mean the death of laptops.
A Tablet is Portable: Aren't you sick of carrying your laptops everywhere? What does your backpack want to carry? Tablet or laptop? Understand your backpack's plight, and get a tablet which consumes much lesser space! With a tablet, get access to the entire world anywhere you want. On the other hand, laptops take a while to get turned on, get connected, and are way heavier to carry around. Bask in the portability of a tablet which allows you to enjoy all functionalities of a laptop, this time in an even modern and impressive way. So, seven inch or seventeen inch? You choose.
Longer Battery Life: Flight delayed? Good. Take out your tablet, and begin the entertainment. Listen to unlimited songs, watch movies, play games, and enjoy apps till you hear the last announcement made for you. While entertainment on a laptop is short-term (2 hours on an average), a tablet such as an iPad 2 offers up to 10 hours of battery life, without hindering anything. Get a full day's use out of your tablet PC, and start flooding all media files and folders into the gadget.
A Tablet is a Businessman's Best Friend: Let's assume, you're in a meeting, discussing a new product. You can carry out a presentation without requiring a table top, a big screen, and poster boards. You can collaborate with colleagues, share the details of your product individually with each member, and access the device instantly at the press of a button. The ability to write and share directly onto the screen makes it much more practical. Moreover, you could make changes at the last minute, if required. Also, you don't need to save copies in files and folders – you could directly get them to sign in and carry out the necessary actions, for a tablet can be directly accessed, and is too easy to be passed around people(Symbol 21-65587-02 battery).
A Tablet is Cheaper than a Laptop: There you go with the trump card! In comparison to a full-fledged laptop, a tablet is cheaper. For example, the Apple iPad, which is undoubtedly the best tablet in the world, starts as $499 and goes up to $899. Also, you can get good Android tablets for as less as $250. On the other hand, the best laptops in the world go well above $1,500. Yes, I agree you get great laptops under $1000 too, but when it comes to comparing tablets and laptops, tablets win hands down.
A Tablet is a Better Entertainer: For a bookworm, a tablet can turn into an eBook Reader. For a musician, a tablet can turn into a virtual rock band. For a hardcore gamer, a tablet can turn into a joystick and a computer screen in tandem. For a video-caller, a tablet becomes a source of filming your life (courtesy: FaceTime video-calling in iPad 2), for a movie-buff, it's an instant movie streamer so that you don't need to save movie files onto your hard disk et al. A tablet is hundred times more entertaining, and the multi-touch facility makes it too interesting to use because all the elements collaboratively foster an enjoyable experience. Well, a better battery life keeps your entertainment going, and so you get going too!
So, is a tablet an eye-opener? Yes. Fun to have? Hell yeah! A tablet is faster. It works as a notepad. It has a great processing speed. With a tablet, everything springs up to life instantly. Last, but not the least, it gets you acquainted with the next-gen technology. There ain't a scarceness of reasons why people love tablets. On a serious note, if you aren't looking for a device to replace your work computer, and just want to tip your hand on something cool, impressive, and chic, a tablet PC is your ultimate pick. You might take a while to get a hang on the touchscreen and all, but once you're adept of using it, you can't put your tablet down. Your tablet soon becomes your identity – as if, you're made for each other. Just tap and swipe, and you have everything on your fingertips. Still stuck on why buy a tablet instead of a laptop? I bet, now, you aren't.
Most crucial problems with hydrogen gas tissues, besides scarcity of fueling facilities, could be the large expense inside the engineering. Gas tissues utilize significant amounts of american platinum eagle, which can be frightfully pricey one other purpose we'll fork out $50, 000 possibly even for your hydrogen automobiles automakers point out we'll find out inside 2015.

That might soon change. Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a platinum-free catalyst in the cathode of a hydrogen fuel cell that uses carbon, iron and cobalt. That could make the catalysts "two to three orders of magnitude cheaper," the lab says, thereby significantly reducing the cost of fuel cells.
Although the discovery means we could see hydrogen fuel cells in a wide variety of applications, it could have the biggest implications for automobiles.
Despite the auto industry's focus on hybrids, plug-in hybrids and battery-electric vehicles — driven in part by the Obama administration's love of cars with cords — several automakers remain convinced hydrogen fuel cells are the best alternative to internal combustion.
Hydrogen offers the benefits of battery-electric vehicles — namely zero tailpipe emissions — without the drawbacks of short range and long recharge times. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are electric vehicles; they use a fuel cell instead of a battery to provide juice. You can fill a car with hydrogen in minutes, it'll go about 250 miles or so and the technology is easily adapted to everything from forklifts to automobiles to buses.
Toyota, Mercedes-Benz and Honda are among the automakers promising to deliver hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in 2015. Toyota has said it has cut the cost of fuel cell vehicles more than 90 percent by using less platinum — which currently goes for around $1,800 an ounce — and other expensive materials. It plans to sell its first hydrogen vehicle for around $50,000, a figure Daimler has cited as a viable price for the Mercedes-Benz F-Cell (pictured above in Australia).
Fifty grand is a lot of money, especially something like the F-Cell — which is based on the B-Class compact — or the Honda FCX Clarity.
Zelenay and Wu in the lab.
In a paper published Friday in Science, Los Alamos researchers Gang Wu, Christina Johnston and Piotr Zelenay, joined by Karren More of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, outline their platinum-free cathode catalyst.
The catalysts use carbon, iron and cobalt. The researchers say the fuel cell provided high power with reasonable efficiency and promising durability. It provided currents comparable to conventional fuel cells, and showed favorable durability when cycled on and off — a condition that quickly damages inferior catalysts.
The researchers say the carbon-iron-cobalt catalyst completed the conversion of hydrogen and oxygen into water, rather than producing large amounts of hydrogen peroxide. They claim the catalyst created minimal amounts of hydrogen peroxide — a substance that cuts power output and can damage the fuel cell — even when compared to the best platinum-based fuel cells. In fact, the fuel cell works so well the researchers have filed a patent for it.
The particular research workers failed to immediately assess the fee financial savings their particular cathode prompt presents, which will become challenging due to the fact american platinum eagle definitely would certainly are more pricey when gas tissues started to be more frequent. Nevertheless the research laboratory records in which straightener and also cobalt are usually low-cost and also ample, thin expense regarding gas mobile catalysts will be "definitely 2-3 requests regarding size less costly. "
"The driving level will be we've identified any prompt that includes a excellent toughness in addition to living routine relative to platinum-based catalysts, " Zelenay mentioned really assertion. "For many intents and also makes use of, it is a fresh zero-cost prompt in comparison to american platinum eagle, so that it immediately address among the numerous boundaries to be able to hydrogen gas tissues. ".
Just as with an iPhone or iPod Touch, the battery life of your iPad will be shorter during heavy use. However, there are some measures you can take to keep your device on and active for hours of enjoyment, and this article explains what you can do to lengthen the battery life.HP iPAQ 2200 Series PDA Battery
Li-ion, 3.7V, 900 mAh
Steps :
Turn off Wi-Fi and cellular data (iPad + 3G) settings. Your iPad drains battery power when searching for and attempting to connect to the nearest Wi-Fi or cellular network tower, so if you're not planning on using Safari or apps that require these features, shut them off.
2. Turn off or decrease the timing for data fetching. Data that are updated regularly include email notifications and RSS feed. Go to "Settings". Tap on "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" and go to "Fetch New Data". Tap "Manually". Alternately, tap "Hourly" to increase the fetching interval.
Turn off Push notifications. The usefulness of this step depends on how many emails or IM+ you usually receive; if you get a lot, this step is probably worth using as this can deplete battery life. Go to "Settings", "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" and "Fetch New Data". Turn off Push.
4. Tone down the brightness. It goes without saying that the brighter the screen, the more battery power your iPad consumes. Turn down the brightness to a setting that looks right.
* Go to "Settings", then "Brightness & Wallpaper".
* Select "Auto Brightness", which will allow the iPad to adjust brightness depending on the brightness of your location; or
* Drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness. 25 percent to 30 percent brightness should be sufficient for daytime use, and for most people, should also work for nighttime.
5. Turn off the sound effects. Sounds can cause the battery to deplete quickly if they are frequent and as they are activated by default, they will sound whenever you receive notifications or when pressing buttons for the on-screen keyboard.
* Go to "Settings", "General", and "Sounds". There are five different options on the equalizer to "Increase/Decrease". Or, you can switch to "On/Off" if preferred. Obviously, disabling the lot would decrease the battery usage by sounds.
6. Turn off location services. Active use of maps and other location services will drain battery life. If left on, Maps updates continuously, something that you don't need draining your battery.
7. Avoid frequent use of 3D or graphic heavy apps. Sure, BrickBreaker HD looks great in high-definition, but playing for long periods of time drains battery life like a hose.
8. Switch on Airplane Mode if you have an iPad + 3G. It blocks all of the iPad's wireless signals and will increase battery life. In areas where 3G is patchy or weak, this could drain the battery even more, so it's a very good idea to turn it off in such a situation.
9. Keep the iPad away from temperature extremes. Extreme high or low temperatures can cause the battery life to decrease. Keep the iPad environment between 32ºF and 95ºF(0ºC and 35ºC).
10. Keep your software up-to-date at all times. Apple recommends updating regularly because engineers look for new ways to optimize battery performance and when they find any ways, they pass these on via software updates.
11. Switch on the auto-lock feature.This means that your iPad will turn off after a set period of time if left inactive.
* Go to "Settings", "General", and tap on "Auto Lock". Set the interval to a short space of time, such as one minute.

Also, if the battery has a full charge on it after an hour or two, take it off the charger. Leaving it on the charger to recycle will also wear down your batter power.
Buying laptops with smaller displays may also help improve your battery life. Keep the screen on the dimmest setting that you are still able to read. Set the Sleep Mode on the computer. For example, if you haven't used the laptop in fifteen to twenty minutes, it will turn itself off to conserve battery energy. Make sure to also notice the power left on the battery at different intervals. This will tell you when the battery is almost dead, and you need to replace it before you lose all your documents.

Extreme changes in temperature will also cause problems in batter usage. Extreme heat will cause the power in the battery too quickly. Extreme cold will give the battery problems starting up. If at all possible, keep the laptop plugged in to keep the battery power for when you don't have electrical access for charging. If the battery does become warm or even hot to the touch, it may be a problem with the circuit that helps charge the battery. Make sure to have it checked completely if you are unsure by a professional.
You can find three types of batteries found in dell laptops. They're NiCad, NiMH, and also Lithium-Ion. These all have got different properties and can not be used rather than one another. Check your specifications to learn which battery you will need for your certain laptop. The NiMH usually features a longer working time compared to the Lithium-Ion. So choose one that will give you the most effective working conditions for things you need. Another thing to make note of is the Memory space Effect. Charging and next letting the battery power go completely down every about a week will keep it from creating a continuous charge rather than downgrade how much it's going to charge.

Injuries: road traffic injuries
The Transport Scotland publication, Key Reported Road Casualty Statistics Scotland 2012 presents statistics of the numbers of injury road accidents (that is, road accidents in which one or more people are injured or killed) in Scotland, which were reported by the police using the "Stats 19" statistical returns. Details of all road casualty data are in this Excel workbook(Table 12 from the Transport Scotland publication). Some key statistics from the above publication are illustrated in Chart 1 (view chart) and presented below, using provisional data for 2011:
- The total number of casualties in 2012 (killed, serious and slight injuries combined) was 12,575, the lowest number since records began in 1950.
- The number of people killed in road accidents in Scotland in 2012 was 170, 8% fewer than in 2011 and the lowest figure since current records began.
- There were 1,959 people recorded as seriously injured in road accidents in 2012, 4% more than in 2011, but 14% fewer than in 2009.
The above injury road accident statistics derived from police forces' "Stats 19" returns are not, however, comprehensive. The police can only report details of the accidents of which they are aware. There could be many injury accidents, not reported by the public to the police, which do not appear in the "Stats 19" returns. Key Reported Road Casualty Statistics Scotland 2012, therefore, contains analysis of "Stats 19" statistical returns, compared with figures from some other sources, including road death figures from the National Records of Scotland (NRS) and numbers of emergency admissions to hospital as the result of road traffic accidents. Some of the main conclusions of this analysis (see Table 12 in Excel workbook from Key Reported Casualty Statistics Scotland 2012 for more detail) are:
- "Stats 19" figures are a reliable measure of the level of, and trends in, the number of road deaths - they are very similar to NRS figures, but not the same due to definitional differences.
- The figures for the total killed and seriously injured (KSI) have fallen by 40% between 2002 and 2012, compared with a fall of 38% in hospital admissions due to road traffic accidents (i.e. 48,402 to 46,518) in the same period.
- The figures for the number of children child killed and severely injured have fallen by 63% between 2002 and 2012, compared with a fall of 55% in child hospital admissions due to road traffic accidents (i.e. 11,469 to 7,909) in the same period.
Please note: If you require the most up-to-date data available, please check the data sources directly as new data may have been published since these data pages were last updated. Although we endeavour to ensure that the data pages are kept up-to-date, there may be a time lag between new data being published and the relevant ScotPHO web pages being updated.

Sex Goddess Marilyn Monroe died heartbroken - just 15 days after having an abortion ordered by bobby Kennedy.
And the tragic film star was so deeply involved with both Bobby and his president-brother Jack, she didn't know which man was the father of her child.
Those are two of the bombshell revelations buried in hush-hush FBI files on the assassination of President Kennedy.
The JFK files will rock America when the government releases them to the public.
An FBI insider has already revealed: "Marilyn had an abortion on July 20, 1962, at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital.
"A couple of days later, she tried to get through to Bobby in Washington to tell him she had got rid of the problem, but he ducked her calls.
"Fifteen days after she had it done, Marilyn was dead of a drug overdose.
"She suffered complications and became deeply depressed. She simply decided to end her life".
J. Edgar hoover, the FBI director at the time, knew about the abortion and had information about it locked away in the agency's top secret files. This secret data was recently declassified by President George Bush. And here is what the insider says the files will show - if they are all released:
Bobby Kennedy, the United States attorney general, promised to divorce his wife, Ethel, and marry Marilyn.
Instead, he waited until she aborted the baby before cruelly dumping her.
Peter Lawford, the Kennedy's brother-in-law, gave Marilyn an alibi to help cover up her abortion.
Marilyn's phones were tapped by a member of the Los Angeles Police Department, who later tried to sell the tapes for $50,000!
Justice Department offcicials falsified Bobby Kennedy's travel log to cover up the presence in Los Angeles the day Marilyn died.
J. Edgar Hoover was so shocked by the sex antics of the Kennedy brothers he couldn't bring himself to talk about them, even to his closest associates. In fact, Hoover listened to tapes of red-hot conversations between Bobby and Marilyn.
"Hoover knew all about those tapes," says the source.
"He also knew the LA police chief had copies, and he did his best to get his hands on them before they could be used to damage Bobby.
"Hoover despised the Kenedy brothers, but he was a loyal bureaucrat who saw it as his duty to protect his bosses - the attorney general and his brother, the president.
"Bobby is heard on the tapes ordering Marilyn to have an abortion. She checked into Cedars of Lebanon hospital in LA and had it done on Friday, July 20, 1962.
"Peter Lawford covered for her by announcing she was with him and his wife at lake Tahoe." In the late 1960s, a group of businessmen sent an investigator to LA to track down the tapes, says Ralph de Toledano, author of JFK - The Man Who would be President.
In the late 1960s, a group of businessmen sent an investigator to LA to track down the tapes, says Ralph de Toledano, author of JFK - The Man Who would be President.
"The investigator called me and said he found the policeman who had the tapes," Ralph de Toledano said. "He had listened to them and said they were dynamite. But the cop wanted $50,000 for them."
The businessmen never went through with the deal because Bobby was murdered a few days later, Ralph de Toledano explains.
But there was even more to the cover-up of Bobby's affair with Marilyn.
The weekend of her death, the Justice Department concocted an elaborate alibi for the attorney general, claiming he spent the weekend with his family and friends near San Francisco.
In fact, he was staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel that weekend, and a photocopy of his hotel bill - published in a book on Marilyn's death by the late Frank Capell - proves it.
"Bobby tried to conceal his presence by having his room charged to the National Insurance Association in Chicago." the source says.
"But it didn't work - the hotel put his name on the bill as the person using the room.
"All that information went into FBI files, and it shocked Hoover. But the closest he ever came to talking about the exploits of the Kennedy brothers was to refer to their 'sex things."

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
You need to mention that it's all based off of iLvl and not the level requirement. Just because you manage to pick up a level 70 green doesn't mean it's going to turn into infinite dust or cosmics. The item has to have an iLvl of 121 or higher to produce northrend enchanting materials. Someone might go to the AH with this advice and see a level 70 item, buy it, and have it DE into arcane dust.. not very helpful info.
Again... your advice about going to the AH and buying everything 67-72 is not good... there are still many items coming from outlands being thrown on the AH that are 67-70.
I would like to add that the 73+ is also very misleading. You'll need iLvl 151+ in order to get the better DE rates. Lots of info can be found at http://www.wowwiki.com/Disenchanting_tables.
