No. 153,155 1 Claim. (Cl. 32114) My invention relates to high voltage rectifier assemblies, and is more specifically related to an improvement of the high voltage rectifier system of the type shown in copending application Serial No. 105,729, filed April 26, 1961, entitled, High Voltage Rectifier Structure, in the name of Edward I. Diebold, and assigned to the assignee of the present invention, wherein the rectifier elements of each of the rectifier modules which are connected in series to form a high voltage rectifier system have a small stack of selenium rectifier plates in parallel therewith.
High voltage rectifier systems can be formed of a plurality of sub-assemblies which each contain a rectifier and voltage divider network with the sub-assemblies connected in series to form a high voltage rectifier system. The voltage division means which normally include a resistor and capacitor in parallel with the respective rectifier element are effective for forcing equal voltage distribution across each of the series connected modules in the rectifier chain. The resistor-capacitor circuit is not, however, able to limit the voltage magnitude applied to the individual rectifier cells when the series chain is exposed to an excessively high voltage. Thus, one or more of the rectifier cells may fail under extremely high voltage conditions which could lead to a complete failure of the entire structure by successive break-down of the individual rectifier cells.
The present invention provides means whereby there will be voltage division between the rectifier cells in the usual manner, but the energy of over-voltage transients is carried away without damaging the rectifier cells.
More specifically, the invention contemplates the connection of a small stack of selenium rectifier plates which could be contained within a cartridge housing in parallel with each of the rectifier devices. These cartridges are made sufficiently small to fit respective individual modules and will have a reverse break-down voltage which is above the rated voltage of the rectifier cell being protected, but below the test voltage of the rectifier cell being protected. By way of example, a typical rectifier cell rated at'600 volts peak may be tested at 850 volts peak. The break-down voltage of the cartridge of selenium rectifier plates will then be between the 600 and 850 volt peak value. Therefore, when the semiconductor rectifier device is subjected to an excessive voltage, a substantial reverse current will flow through the cartridge of selenium plates, whereby the voltage across the edits decreased to safe values during the transient excessive voltage condition.
The cartridge can consist of a large number of small selenium rectifier plates in a common case. The number of plates which typically could be to would depend upon the required break-down voltage for the selenium cartridge. Since the plates have an extremely low rated current, the plates will be very small in area.
During break-down of the selenium cartridge and, thus, protection of the main rectifier cell, the reverse current through the selenium plates will create a substantial amount of heat which will be stored in the plates. Since the voltage surges to be protected against are essentially of low energy and are non-repetitive, they will not create a sufiicient amount of heat to overheat the relatively massive selenium plates and the accumu- Patented Apr. 19, 1966 lated heat will have time to dissipate in the interval between surges.
As an unexpected advantage of the invention, I have found that by appropriate design of the selenium plates and cartridge, the substantial capacitance existing in the stacked plates may be sufficient for use as the voltage balancing capacitor of a typical capacitor-resistor balancing circuit.
One great advantage of the novel invention is that it is now possible for the designer of the system to select a substantially reduced rated voltage for the main rectifier cells with respect to the rated voltage of the system. Thus, present design techniques call for high voltage rectifier assemblies where the rectifier elements have rated peak voltages which are 2.5 to 3.5 times the rated peak reverse voltage of the system. This, of course, requires a predetermined large number of rectifier devices connected in series for a given system.
With the use of the surge suppressing selenium cartridge of the invention, however, such large safety margins are not needed, and it will be possible to save 30% to 50% of the rectifier devices in a given chain of rectifier cells which would also mean a saving in the number of modules to be used, the number of voltage dividing elements which are needed, and the supporting hardware for the complete system. Simultaneously, a saving of 30% to 50% of the power loss of the system will be possible, since forward current flow is through fewer series connected rectifier cells.
A further advantage exists under transient voltage conditions wherein the surge suppressing selenium cartridge will force a voltage clipping effect on the individual modules which are subjected to sudden overvoltages due to unequalized switching, transient or induced localized over-voltages, as due to a travelling wave travelling along the series connected chain of cells.
Accordingly, a primary object of this invention is to provide a novel cell-protecting means for series connected rectifier cells which form a high voltage rectifier system.
Another object of this invention is to permit a reduction in the required number of rectifier cells in a high voltage rectifier system.
A further object of this invention is to provide a novel protective means in a series connected chain of rectifier cells which protects the cells under excessive transient volt age conditions.
A further object of this invention is to provide a stack of low current rating selenium plates in parallel with a high current rating rectifier cell to protect the high current rectifier cell from excessive reverse voltage.
A further object of this invention is to replace the voltage dividing capacitor of a voltage dividing the network lfor series connected rectifier cells by a stack of selenium plates which provide capacitance for voltage balancing functions and further provide excessive overvoltage protection.
- These and other objects of my invention will become apparent from the following description when taken in connection with the drawings, in which:

FIGURE 7 is a top view of the rectifier assembly of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 8 is a side view of FIGURE 7. FIGURE 9 is a front view of the rectifier assembly of FIGURES 1, 7 and 8.
Referring first to the embodiment shown in FIGURES 1 through 6, and more specifically to FIGURE 1, a complete rectifier assembly is formed of a plurality of modules which each contain rectifier elements, voltage balancing structures for the rectifier elements, and the novel selenium cartridge. The modules such as modules 2% 2'1, 22, 23 and 24 are stacked in adjacent relationship with respect 'to one another with alternate modules being on opposite sides of the center of the mounting frame. Thus, modules 20, 22 and 24 are on one side, while modules 21 and 23 are on the other side of a center through the assembly. The adjacent modules, however, are so arranged that their internal rectifier elements are connected in series to define a long string of individual rectifier elements connected in series between a first end shield 25 and a second end shield 26. End shields 25 and 26 are of conductive material and have centrally located terminals 27 and 23 respectively (FIGURES 7 and 8) to serve as terminals for the rectifier assembly. The end shields 25 and 26 are also provided with extending mounting pads 29 and 30 respectively which have openings therein such as openings 31 and 32 in mounting pad 29 to serve as means for mounting the rectifier assembly.
The main support member for the rectifier assembly of FIGURE 1 is shown in perspective view in FIGURE 2 as being comprised of a central beam 33 which has an X-shaped cross-section and can, for example, be made of a polyester fiberglass.
The outer edges of the beam are notched with a plurality of notches such as notches 34, 35 and 36, which notches will serve, as will be seen more fully hereinafter, to receive the insulating mounting boards of the various modules to be assembled on beam 33. Thus, in FIGURE 2 I have shown a module board 37 as mounted on beam 33. Module board 37 is further shown in FIG- URE 20. as having a centrally located slot 33 to cause the module board to have a U-shape. The upper ends of the legs of the U-shaped module board are then provided with extending tongue sections 39 and 40.
In assembling the board on beam 33, it will be clear that the extending length of beam 33 receives slot '38. The ext-ending tongue members 39 and 40 are then received into appropriate notches at either end of the vertical portion of beam 33 with the bottom of slot 33 falling into the notch at one end of the horizontal portion of beam 33. Thus, the panel 37 is automatically located in a predetermined position on beam 33 to simplify the assembly of the device, as will be described more fully hereinafter.
Each of the individual modules of the device such as modules 21 through 24 of FIGURE 1 are constructed in an identical manner, each of the modules having an insulating support of the type shown in FIGURE 2a.
The module construction of one of the typical module devices is best shown in FIGURES 3, 4, 4w, 5 and 6. Referring to these figures, I show the module as having a support base 41 which is identical to base 37. Base 41 is the main supporting member of the module, and may be a polyester glass board which receives all of the component parts of the module. Thus, the board first has an upper shield 42 and lower shield 43 secured thereto as by rivets 44 and 45 respectively which extend from the insulating board 41 to the shields 42 and 43. The shield 42 has a rectifier cell 46 connected thereto at one of its electrodes as by soldering or any other desired fastening means, while, in a like manner, shield 43 has recetifier cell 47 secured thereto at one end of its electrodes. The upper shield 42 has a conductive eyelet 48 extending therefrom to serve as one terminal for the module, while the other terminal of the module is formed of an L- shaped conductive strip 49 which is riveted to board 41 and has a leg 50 extending therefrom. It will be noted that conductive strin 49 is insulated from shield 43.
The board 41 has further terminal members 51 and 52 secured thereto as by rivet means. A first cartridge 53 and first resistor 54 are then provided for rectifier cell 46, and are connected in parallel with rectifier 46. The cartridge 53 and resistor 54 are supported by their leads. Thus, the left-hand lead of resistor 54, the left-hand lead of cartridge 53, and the conductive lead leading from the second terminal of rectifier cell 46 are all connected to conductive strip 52. The right-hand leads of resistor 54 and cartridge 53 are then connected to conductive strip 51 which is, in turn, electrically connected to a downwardly projecting portion 55 of shield 42.
In a similar manner, a cartridge 56 and resistor 57 are provided for rectifier cell 47 with their left-hand leads being connected to conductive strip 52 and their right-hand leads being connected to conductive strip 49. The second electrode of rectifier cell 47 is also connected to conductive strip 49.
The cartridges 53 and 5d are shown in FIGURE 4, and
comprise a stack of individual selenium plates such as plates 53a, 53b and 530 for cartridge 53. These plates are contained within an insulation housing 53d which has the leads from the two outer plates extending therethrough for connection to outer circuit components. I In FIGURE 4a I have schematically illustrated cartridges 53 and 56 as including a series of small rectifier cells as defined by the plurality of plates. The actual number of plates in cartridges 53 and 56 could, for example, be from 20 to 30 plates, depending upon the point at which break-down under reverse voltage direction is desired.
The electrical circuit thus defined by the module of FIGURES 3 through 6 is shown in FIGURE 4a, and is comprised of a circuit which, beginning at terminal 48, includes rectifier cell 46 which has resistor 54 and selenium cartridge 53 in parallel therewith. This parallel connected group of components is connected in series with a similar parallel connected group of components 47, 56 and 57 which terminate at terminal 50.
It is commonly known that for effective voltage balancing, a parallel capacitor should be provided for each of the cells, as well as a resistor such as resistors 54 and 57. As an unexpected advantage of the invention, I have found that the capacitance between the plates of a typical selenium cartridge is sufiicient to serve the purposes of the voltage balancing capacitor for the respective cells. Thus, cartridge 53 has an inherent capacitance schematically illustrated as capacitor 53c which is of suificient magnitude to cause predetermined voltage division between the series connected cells such as cell 46 and 47 under rapid rising voltage conditions. In a similar manner, distributed capacitance 56a of cartridge 56 serves as the voltage dividing capacitor for cell 47.
The board 51 then has the slot 58 therein for receiving anextending section of beam 33, while its extending tongue portions such as tongue portion 59 are received in grooves in the beam to automatically physically locate the module on the beam.
The individual modules are then assembled on beam 33, as illustrated in FIGURES 7 and 8, where those modules such as modules 21 and 23'to the right of the beam are merely slid into their appropriately predetermined positions as determined by the notches in the beam,
While the modules such as module 20 are rotated -by 180 with respect to modules 21 and 23, and are similarly inserted on the beam 33. That is to say, the module boards are so arranged on alternate sides of the beam so that the extending terminal 50 of a module such as module 21 will be adjacent an eyelet such as eyelet 48 of module 20.
By now appropriately securing the respective eyelets 48 and extending terminals 50 of the adjacent modules as by a screw means such as screw 60 or other appropriate connecting means, the modules such as modules 20 and 21 are inherently connected in series with one another and are secured to the beam 33. In a similar manner, each of the remaining modules are electrically connected to one another and mechanically secured to the board 33 along its complete length.
In the embodiment of FIGURES 7 and 8, a total of 50 modules, for example, are used so that a total of 100 rectifier cells are connected in series with one another to define an exceedingly high voltage assembly, the current capacity of which is determined by the current capacity of any of the individual cells.
The end shields 25 and 26 previously described are then secured to the ends of beam 33 as by screws 61-62 and 63-64 respectively where the screws pass through the beam 33 and terminate in electrically conductive relationship with respect to the conductive shields. The last module can, therefore, be electrically connected to its adjacent shield by an electrical jumper such as jumpers 65 and 66 where jumper 65 connects end shield 25 to the first module 67 of the stack of FIGURE 8, while jumper 66 connects the other end of module 68 to end shield 26.
With the construction as described above, the rectifier elements form a string of series connected rectifier cells Where each of the cells is shunted by a respective resistor and a capacitor where the capacitor is either formed by the distributed capacitance of the selenium cartridges, or, if desired, by an external capacitor. Moreover, all of the metallic parts of the rectifier column are held at a specific potential within the column, which potential changes gradually by equal steps from terminal 27 along the stack to terminal 28.
An unusual feature of the novel construction is that the reliability of the overall assembly is greater than the reliability of the individual components. In the event that a single cell within the stack fails, the resistor and capacitor voltage divider associated with the cell will permit its reverse voltage to collapse without upsetting the voltage division of the other cells. This collapse of reverse voltage prevents the flow of excessive reverse current through the cell which fails. Thus, a failed cell is not completely destroyed and mechanically opened, but rather remains a conductor which permits the current to continue flowing through the string. Where a sufficient number of identical cells are used, it will be apparent that the failure of a single cell will not affect the performance of the column of cells which remain. Therefore, the reliability of the entire column is greater than the reliability of its parts.
The shunting resistor of each of the groups of cells provides voltage division between the cells under normal voltage conditions in the usual manner. The shunting capacitors are provided for each of the cells to provide voltage division under transient voltage conditions in the usual manner. Clearly, the novel selenium cartridges of the invention operate to protect their respective cells by breaking down in the reverse direction when transient voltage conditions, even though balanced between the cells, are excessively high for the cell rating.
With regard to other high voltage effects, it will be seen that each of the modules is provided with individual conductive shields which serve as a heat sink for their respective rectifier, but also serve as a part of a continuous shield for the complete device. The two end shields of the device are then matched to the individual cell shields to give the column its unified appearance and unified performance as a single electrode device. Each of the shields are held at intermediate potentials by the voltage dividing network, and do not have sharp corners or discontinuities, thus eliminating corona and other gas discharge eflfects.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the highest gradient in open space will be held below 10 volts per mil. Moreover, creepage distances along the insulating material will be held below 2,000 volts per inch for norrmal operation, and below 4,000 volts per inch under transient conditions.
The complete rectifier system of FIGURE 1 may then be mounted in any desired manner, and could, for example, be contained within an ambient insulation such as air, compressed gas, or oil, as is Well known to the art. The single electrode appearance of the device simplifies the insulator mountings for mounting the device Within a container.
Although I have described preferred embodiments of my novel invention, many variations and modifications will now be obvious to those skilled in the art, and I prefer therefore to be limited not by the specific disclosure herein but only by the appended claim.
I claim:
In a high voltage rectifier system comprising a plurality of rectifier cells; an elongated support beam of insulating material having an outwardly extending side and a plurality of insulating iboards; each of said insulating boards having a first and second series connected rectifier cell mounted thereon and a first and second stack of selenium rectifier plates connected in parallel with said first and second rectifier cells respectively; each of said insulating boards having a respective slot extending thereon; each of said slots of each of said insulating boards receiving said outwardly extending side to mount said insulating boards and their said rectifier cells on said support beam; the outer end of said outwardly extending side having notches spaced therealong; said notches receiving the bottom of respective slots of said insulating boards to axially position said insulating boards from one another; said stack of selenium rectifier plates conducting a relatively small reverse current at reverse voltages lower than the rated reverse voltage of said cell; said stack of selenium rectifier plates conducting a relatively large reverse current when the reverse voltage on said stack is above the rated voltage of said cell and below the test voltage of said cell.

Queens Sophomore Lauren Hooper Honored for Her Work in the Community
Lauren Hooper, a sophomore at Queens University of Charlotte, has received a 2013 Community Impact Student Award. Given by North Carolina Campus Compact, an association of colleges and universities committed to fostering campus-community engagement, the award recognizes one outstanding student on each campus for making a difference in the community. Hooper is one of 19 students across the state who was honored.
Hooper is involved with many service activities, but she is especially committed to working at Sedgefield Elementary, a local Title I school. After she was introduced to the school through a class project, Hooper went on to found the Sedgefield Garden Club, a group of Queens volunteers who visit Sedgefield each week to work with students in the afterschool program, maintain the school garden and deliver fun lessons on healthy eating. Hooper also helps plan the MLK Day of Service, and she's part of a group working to bring school supplies to Cameroon Africa. An International Studies Major, Hooper is from Augusta, GA.
"Lauren puts smiles on the faces of the kids she works with at Sedgefield," says Pat Taft, director of Queens' center for active citizenship. "She's making an impact on them, and they are making an impact on her."
Hooper was honored at North Carolina Campus Compact's annual student conference on November 2 at Central Piedmont Community College in Charlotte. Now in its 20th year, more than 175 student leaders from 27 campuses in three states attend.
North Carolina Campus Compact is a statewide association of nearly 40 colleges and universities that seek to develop civically-engaged students and strengthen communities. Presidents and chancellors commit their institutions to being "engaged campuses" that enhance a student's sense of responsibility, citizenship and leadership, and impact the community by partnering with local organizations to address real needs.

Automation Federation News Release
Contact: Jennifer Infantino

Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA (18 April 2014) — The Automation Federation and Southern Polytechnic State University will co-sponsor a free seminar 22 July 2014 on the university's Marietta, Georgia campus to educate area business and manufacturing leaders on the value and importance of the recently launched US Cybersecurity Framework.
A key contributor to the development of the framework, the Automation Federation
is helping to organize a series of informational meetings across the US in 2014 to raise awareness around the need to put the framework's guidelines into action and improve America's defenses against industrial cyberattack.
As the umbrella organization of the International Society of Automation (ISA), the Automation Federation in 2013 worked with cybersecurity experts at the White House, the US Department of Homeland Security and the National Institute of Standards and Technology to incorporate ISA's internationally recognized industrial automation and control systems security standards (IACS) within the US Cybersecurity Framework.
ISA's cybersecurity standards—known as ISA/IEC 62443—are designed to mitigate the effects of cyber damage to industrial plant systems and networks (commonly used in transportation grids, power plants, water treatment facilities and other vital industrial settings), thereby preventing widespread plant shutdowns, operational and equipment failure, severe economic and environment disruption, and serious risks to the public.
Registration for the July seminar, titled Cybersecurity Framework for Protecting our Nation's Critical Infrastructure, is limited. Interested persons are encouraged to register as soon as possible by contacting Jennifer Williams by phone at +1-678-915-7240 or via email at email@example.com.
Date: 22 July 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Location: Southern Polytechnic State University
Joe Mack Wilson Student Center (Building A) Theater
1100 South Marietta Parkway, Marietta, GA 30060
A complimentary continental breakfast will be provided at 8:00 a.m. by Southern Polytechnic State University.

text: If Mom and Pop Motels received "Star" ratings, then I believe that the Midway Motel in Saint Paul should definitely be a Five Star! The rooms have Screen Doors. I have NEVER stayed in a motel that had Screen Doors! There are also windows on the "backside" of the room – one in bathroom and one in bedroom – so you can have fresh air and a cool breeze wafting through the room all night without fear of someone peering in. There was a large mini-fridge that worked very well. The furnishings and faucets were of high quality. The bed and pillows were very comfy. The sheets and towels were of high quality and were immaculately white with no stains. The Owners/Managers, Suresh and Kay (Mom and Pop) offered welcoming "Hospitality Plus". There was abundant free and delicious coffee available in the office each morning. Kay is an avid gardener and her variety of colorful flowers were blooming brilliantly which provided a very cheerful beautiful landscape all around the motel. The air conditioner was installed on the back wall at eye-level. It worked perfectly and on a hot day it was glorious to have the cool air at a level where it can blow on your back and neck to cool you off quickly. The room was extremely quiet. There were tall trees outside the window and I loved being able to listen to the birds singing "Good Morning" songs upon awakening each day. The location was very important for me because I do not drive and I need easy access to Public Transportation. The #84 bus stop is less than half a block from the motel and the bus came by about every 10 minutes. The Midway Motel is the most wonderful place I have ever stayed. I will definitely stay there again next time I am in Saint Paul and I hope that will be very soon. Thank you a Million Trillion, Kay and Suresh, for making my week in Saint Paul a gloriously enjoyable and economical adventure.

A fascinating snapshot of immigration and assimilation in the context of the "War on Tenor" and the conflation of Islamic charities with terrorist activity. It throws a light on how Pakistani-Americans, a community often feared, maligned and otherwise misunderstood in the United States, address the twin questions of "What does it mean to be an American?" and "What does it mean to be a global citizen?" It also makes one consider the vast untapped potential to garner financial support for social development and poverty alleviation in the developing world from diaspora communities and individuals who think and act globally and locally.

Vote "Colbert" as Node 3 Name
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Science, Transportation
We told you last week about NASA looking for help naming their new Node 3 module, and if you are into "The Colbert Report" you undoubtedly heard that he dissed the names that they came up with, Earthrise, Legacy, Serenity and Venture.
"Those aren't space modules, those are organic teas," Colbert said. "But you know what name would look fantastic on the side of that module? Colbert!"
Since the airing of that episode, the comic has gotten over 30,000 votes, second to the top name "Serenity" and beating out "Xenu," Scientology's galactic ruler. But you have to love the idea that perhaps if we all vote enough, we may see the name "Colbert" painted on the side. You have until March 20 to contribute to the count.

2011 Ford Edge Repair and Maintenance
A guide to problems, costs, maintenance and repair for your 2011 Ford Edge
Verified by mechanics, reported by drivers like you
Ask a mechanic in our community
Never overpay. Check prices with our estimator
2011 Ford Edge Problemspower Booster
Bulletin 13N02 - This program extends the coverage of the brake booster to ten years of service or 150,000 miles from the warranty start of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. This is a one time repair program.
In some of the affected vehicles, it is possible for the brake booster to develop a small tear in the diaphragm under certain driving and environmental conditions. If this occurs, the driver may hear a hissing noise while depressing the pedal and may also experience a "spongy" pedal feel without a noticeable effect on braking performance. If the vehicle is not serviced, the tear will eventually expand and the pedal effort required to stop the vehicle will gradually increase. However, in all cases, the fundamental vehicle braking system remains functional.
A leaking axle shaft seal and / or PTU cover seal can cause transmission (red) or Power Transfer Unit (PTU) (brown) fluid leaks at the axle area. The axle shaft seal and / or PTU cover seal may be leaking and should be replaced as required.
Excessive clearance between the plastic wheel cladding and the wheel can cause a clicking noise from the wheel area while the car is moving. If the plastic cladding is loose, the wheel will need to be replaced.
2011 Ford Edge Questionsmy auto seat control does not maintain the memory. constantly having to reset. What is happening? (1 answer)
Set the seat memory by using the dash buttons (1 & 2) and using the remote door control. works for a couple of weeks and then reverts to some previous code.
Car wouldn't start. Battery is good. Just was about go out to the store and it wouldn't start. And the monitor showed starting system failure.
My edge sport was loosing break powrr occasionally. Almost rear ended a car twice. Normally stop car with toe pressure. Today it was full on leg power. Never locked up wheels. The dealer said it was free repair. Car almost five years old. Over 65000 miles.
2011 Ford Edge RecallsBody Control Module May Overheat
The body control module (BCM) may develop an internal electrical short. This may cause the BCM to overheat, which can lead to a vehicle fire. Dealers will inspect the BCM and replace it as necessary. This recall is expected to begin on March 7, 2011. The Ford recall number is 10S14.
Ford is recalling certain 2011 F-150, F-250, F-350, F-450, F550, Edge, and Lincoln MKX vehicles due to a possible internal electrical short in the throttle body control module. If an electrical short develops, overheating of the control module may occur, which could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect and replace the throttle body control module as necessary.
During assembly the electronic module settings were not configured correctly. As a result, the locking function of the rear liftgate will not work as designed. The liftgate may not lock using the interior lock switches or the remote buttons. Dealers will upgrade the software in the affected control modules as necessary to correct this concern.

A discovery by scientists working at the San Andreas Fault in California may help create an early-warning system for earthquakes. Current warning systems provide only a few seconds' notice, but the researchers say a few subtle movements in the earth can be noted two to 10 hours before a quake. They plan more research.

Consider this:
- More than 25 percent of accounts send all of their PPC traffic to just one landing page.
- 20 percent of small businesses send clicks straight to the home page of a website.
- Less than 50 percent of small businesses' landing pages have conversion tracking enabled.
This research coming from WordStream is one of the reasons the company launched its newest free tool, the "AdWords Landing Page Grader." This software gives PPC advertisers a detailed diagnostic of how well the landing pages are performing for the PPC traffic.
The landing page audit tool evaluates:
- Conversion rate compared to industry benchmarks.
- Keyword relevancy.
- The landing page against landing page best practices in PPC.
- Conversion elements, like lead-capture forms.
- If the page is optimized for mobile users.
- Campaign effectiveness over a 90-day period.
- Top five landing pages and their performance.
The benchmark metrics come from years of collecting and analyzing customer data, said founder and CTO of WordStream, Larry Kim. "Because we've worked with thousands of customers in so many different industries, we have pretty good insight into how the auction varies from finance to insurance to ecommerce."
Kim said that from this "billions of dollars worth of data," WordStream was able to identify best practice benchmarks for landing pages as it relates to PPC.
Here's a sample of what that diagnostic report might look like:
WordStream said the data submitted is "completely secure, and users can log in quickly and easily via a secure one-time OAuth connection."
"We invest millions into creating these free tools for marketers," Kim said. Tools like the AdWords Landing Page Grader, he said, are a valuable way for marketers to build a case for improving landing pages because it provides context and a starting point for a conversation around data.

A novel approach is proposed for learning a visual model from real shape samples of the same class. The approach can directly acquire a visual model by generalizing the multiscale convex/concave structure of a class of shapes, that is, the approach is based on the concept that shape generalization is shape simplification wherein perceptually relevant features are retained. The simplification does not mean the approximation of shapes but rather the extraction of the optimum scale convex/concave structure common to shape samples of the class. The common structure is obtained by applying the multiscale convex/concave structure-matching method to all shape pairs among given shape samples of the class and by integrating the matching results. The matching method, is applicable to heavily deformed shapes and is effectively implemented with dynamic programming techniques. The approach can acquire a visual model from a few samples without any a priori knowledge of the class. The obtained model is very useful for shape recognition. Results of applying the proposed method are presented

Leonardo DiCaprio Spotted in Wynwood; The Social Lubricant Lounge To Open During Art Walk
Mark Dorfman, along with father-son duo Igor & Fred Niznik is giving the Wynwood community and its lovable hipster culture a place to get loose. It's a 1927 single-family home that's been conserved till now, like a fine bottle of wine. TSL or The Social Lubricant lounge will have its grand opening next weekend during Art Walk. They are doing a soft opening this weekend, allowing people to get used to the space, which features an inside and outside area.

The outside open area is filled with black mod couches where you can fall asleep if overly lubricated. Oh and they've got hookah's for in-between or after ... drinks. The inside area, from what we can tell, is funky...perfect for a place that prides itself on making people less dry and more lubricated. And that's not all.
TSL's owners are also opening The Butcher Shop next door -- the spaces may eventually be joined. We hear Butcher Shop will be a one-of-a-kind meat market and restaurant where cuts and legs will hang at your disposal waiting to be picked and then cooked to order on the spot.

We're still a little dry on facts, but once The Social Lubricant lounge opens, we'll have more on these two new additions to the arts district. With more production studios setting up shop here each day and Leonardo DiCaprio just walking around on a Tuesday afternoon (yup, we saw him), Wynwood is on the rise. What better way than to beef up a neighborhood that's going nowhere but up than with places where the creative population can eat and get socially lubricated?

What others say: Provide more resources to stop military suicides
Associated Press
The following editorial appeared recently in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:
If every single day one U.S. soldier after another were being shot dead while deployed overseas, surely the American people wouldn't stand for it.
The situation is worse than that. Unofficial Pentagon figures, reported first by The Associated Press, show that, 349 active-duty service members took their own lives in 2012.
The military rate is lower than in the general population, but that's no consolation. Troop suicides, the most in 11 years of tracking, exceeded military deaths last year: 310 in Afghanistan and one in Iraq, Time magazine military writer Mark Thompson reported Tuesday.
The suicides are each unique but with common threads, he wrote: "The post-9/11 stress of military life is real, even if some of those in uniform have never been in a war zone."
Post-traumatic stress, depression and behavioral issues can damage personal relationships. Active-duty personnel might fear the uncertainty awaiting them in civilian life. Those in the field might not want to reveal their problems, and a strained counseling system might not adequately help them cope.
In early January, the Pentagon issued its study of 2011 military suicides, and it contained telling information, such as that 60 percent of the deaths involved firearms; 74 percent of those who took their lives didn't let others know they might harm themselves; 55 percent didn't have a known behavioral disorder; 24 percent were known to have substance abuse issues; and less than half had deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan. Relationships and jobs also were stressors.
Former Army psychiatrist Elspeth Ritchie said military leaders should use the latest data to help devise more ways of reducing suicide in the ranks.
Veterans need more attention, too. By some estimates, 18 veterans commit suicide each day, and Veterans Affairs facilities treat close to 1,000 ex-service members a month who have tried to kill themselves. But the strains on VA services are well-known.
A nation that allows a relatively small number of volunteers to put their lives at risk in war must also provide the resources to protect those lives, even from self-inflicted harm.

Most of the time, when you think of throwing a weapon like an axe or a spear, it's done with one hand. However, some weapons like the trident are versatile... is there anything that says you can or can't throw the trident two-handed for 1d8 instead of 1d6 damage? I guess for a blunt thrown weapon you could do it like the olympic hammer toss, but that doesn't apply with things like the trident.

From a balance point of view, you will have paid the cost (of not having a shield or second weapon equipped in your off hand). So that's OK.
In terms of rationale, watch someone throwing a javelin. The off hand is used for balance and additional momentum. There is definitely more force when the off hand is free*. So that's OK too.
I'd allow it.
Note that is not a RAW interpretation, due to the wording of the Versatile property specifically mentioning improved damage to a melee attack only. I may still allow it, so will leave the answer here. As far as I can see the melee-attack only constraint is in v0.3 of the online rules, but I cannot search further back. If anyone has older versions and can verify whether/when the wording has changed, I am happy to update the caveat just for accuracy's sake.
* yes this is a little facile. Don't look too hard at the narrative argument. Don't sweat the rationale to the point that a degree in Biomechanics is required. Don't ask me about hit points :-)
I would say no and here is why:
Thus being Throw a ranged atack Versatile (meant for meele atacks) would not apply.
However as aforementioned if the player can make it sound right and it would make us enjoy the game more I would allow it.
By RAW, I'd say it is ok if the weapon is specifically thrown versatile. Without penalty.
RAI I really don't know. Balance wise, I think requiring both hands is cost sufficient for the improved damage dice which only average out to 1 damage.
Go outside, find a broom or something else with a long shaft. Try and throw it with 2 hands. It is near imposible for you to coordinate a throw with both hands and also hit something. And also most of the time one of the hands will break the speed insted of increasing it.
Is it like an axe or hammer, where you can with both hands raise it over your head, and then throw it with both hands, it is another thing. (But you did mention trident so thats what i thought for reference)
This is where you need to ask your self, does the rules count or does realism count? Almost always, if it sounds plausible, if the player can argument (he is a 1000BC ninja with roots in the special two handed trident diciplin that he have been training for his entire life - ofcause he can), or if it is possible in real life, id allow it. Else, id allow it with a penalty, penalty varys depending on dificulty.
