What are fracture filled diamonds, and how recognise them?
I recently met with a jewellery valuer who values all types of jewellery. One of the services this valuation company provides is insurance valuations for diamond engagement rings that were purchased abroad, mainly Antwerp, Dubai and New York. Several Irish couples head to these locations each year in the search for a better deal, as they believe Irish Jewellers are too expensive due to higher margins, overheads etc. Read more »
Tips for Jewellery Valuations
If you have jewellery of value you should more than likely have it insured. With the recent rise in home burglaries and crime, having your jewellery insured has never been more important.
Before you can insure your jewellery with an insurance company, you will need to get the items valued and a report on each item prepared. The insurance company will then provide you with a premium based on the value of the items insured. Read more »

Buying / Selling Gold As An Investment – Some Great Tips
Any Idea Why Gold Bullion
Rare supply of fresh gold to the market have led the skyscraper of rate of gold in the bullion market. The supply of fresh gold into the market is rather low, hence the total graph of the gold cost in the lengthy run is constantly increasing. Therefore marketing gold, be it coins, bullion or even just marketing gold precious jewellery proves to be lucrative. Read more »
The Perfect Princess Cut Engagement Rings
The princess cut comes in a close second to the round brilliant shape for diamond rings. So what is a princess cut exactly? It is either a square or rectangular cut diamond with four sides that are beveled and on the side you can see that the shape resembles an inverted pyramid.
The cut itself was created in the swinging Sixties and it has become more and more popular recently. The difference between the princess and the brilliant cuts is that the princess cut has corners, whereas the brilliant cut is round. This also means because of this a princess cut diamond will weigh more.

Guide in Choosing Your Engagement Ring Setting
As equally important as the band of the engagement ring and the center stone is the setting of the ring. The setting gives the ring its unique look and it also helps a lot into fitting what you prefer your overall engagement ring to look like. If you prefer it simple with a bit of edginess, you can do so. If you want it flashy and eye-catching, there is a setting perfect for it. If you want to give your center rock a good emphasis, there are also different available settings for it.
Now, as you are looking at different rings and their settings, you encounter words such as pave, halo, double halo, cathedral, three stone, split, bypass, claw (prong), solitaire and you do not have a clue as to how they look like, exactly? Check the following below.
The Claw (Prong) Setting
This is the classic, timeless and most preferred setting for a ring. The claw (prong) is a metal that holds the stone tightly in its place. Below are some of the different kinds of claws.
Halo Setting
This is the type of setting where the smaller stones are etched in or on the metallic circle that wraps the center stone. This kind of setting gives a larger center stone illusion and it also increases the ring's overall sparkle. This is a setting that is good if you want to have some money as the stones that are used on the halo are small, more common ones so these stones are much more affordable. This is a way to really save money without sacrificing the ring's overall look. This setting is usually paired with paved or channel bands which adds to the vintage look that the halo creates. Of course, a simple band also works beautifully as well. There is a single halo setting and of course a double halo, which is made of two concentric circles.
Channel Setting
This setting is a safe way to protect the smaller diamonds in a row that is put into the ring's band, making the shank look flashier. There are no prongs that hold the smaller diamonds which makes it far more secure.
Pave Setting
Pave Setting may look similar to channel setting at first glance but it is placed on the ring band differently. This is where the small diamonds are placed very closely together and thus creates a more luminous and vibrant sparkle. This is made through drilling holes into the ring and carefully placing the small stones, and then securing them well after. Diamonds are usually pave set when the size of the stones are usually .01 to .02 carats and anything smaller than that are called micro-pave.
Three-stone Setting
This is not a usual, classic design for the ring but many have opted for this kind of setting already. Some would give meaning to the three stones. They say it symbolizes the couple's present, past, and future while for some, it means "I love you".
There are many ways on how you can use this setting. You can have the three stones at the same size but usually, the center stone is bigger. You can also opt on having colored gems as the accessory stones to add a little dash of color to it.
Buying an Engagement Ring
Before heading to the different jewelry shops or before checking the website of different jewelry shops to look for the perfect ring for her, you should know a lot of things about her preference. It also pays to take her personality into consideration.
Does she prefer diamond and not any other precious gems? Does she have a cut and color that she prefer? Maybe her parents or her friends know? Or maybe she has rings that can be your basis on what exactly she prefers. What kind of metal should you get for her ring? Does she like it gold or the classic silver? Should there be an engraving? For a more complete guide on how to buy the perfect engagement ring for her, the infographic below will guide you in a very helpful and interesting way.
Creative Ideas For A Beautiful Wedding Day!
Wedding is something special! Two becoming as one is very special! No doubt, it will be a day to remember! Enjoy it! Weddings are just as unique as the people are that make up the marriage. It may range from large to small, expensive or inexpensive, formal or casual. However, decisions have to be made. Following are some tips and tricks others have found valuable to make those decisions easier:
Leave a gift for out-of-town guests in their room as a thank you for coming so far to attend your wedding. A nice basket of snacks, like crackers, fresh fruit, and drinks, will give them something welcoming to enjoy while they are away from home. Another excellent choice would be a gift card for a local restaurant!
How To Choose Jewelry
Choosing your jewelry is no different than choosing your wardrobe. Most important is to stick within your comfort zone and your personal fashion style. That said it never hurts to step out of the box once in awhile.
What's most important is that your jewelry matches up with your outfit. Your jewelry is the finishing touch on your total look. Make your fashion statement count!
You need to determine what you want your jewelry to do. Do you want it front and center stage? Do you want it to compliment? Do you want it subtle? The occasion or event you'll be wearing your jewelry to is also important – make certain it is fitting. A sexy oversized choker might be perfect for a night on the town but may not be fitting for the boardroom.
Although you may have a favorite designer. There's really no need to stick with just one designer. In fact there's no need for the pieces to actually be designer. There are plenty of wonderful pieces on the market that are unsigned but certainly make a fashion statement. Mix and match your jewelry to give it character and a little pizzaz!
Costume Jewelry, both signed and unsigned, is an affordable way to complete your look. Costume Jewelry can be bought for a low price and has plenty of life. Heck we see costume jewelry back to the 1920s still in excellent condition. What's great with costume jewelry is you can use it, get tired of it, put it away or give it away and have still gotten good value for your money.
Designer pieces tend to cost a little more, last a little longer, and they usually follow more traditional lines so you can wear them for more than one or two seasons.
Sterling Silver is affordable and very versatile. If you don't want to spend the money for sterling, then purchase some silver plate pieces. Silver is a must have to any wardrobe! You can go from dainty and delicate to large and noticeable. It can be dressed up or down and is acceptable for any event or occasion.
We always recommend have some gold plate or gold tone pieces in your wardrobe basics also. 10-14k gold may be a bit too pricey for many but gold plated jewelry is quite affordable and will give you good value for the cost. Gold like silver can be dressed up or dressed down and is perfect for a very classy look.
When purchasing rings you can have great fun – again the choices are endless from large and overwhelming to dainty and feminine. The length and size of your fingers plays an important role in what will look good. For example long skinny fingers don't look good with huge oversized rings, yet a woman that has long thicker fingers they look exquisite. Long nails? Short nails? it all makes a difference. Play and see what you like what looks good. Also determine where you will be wearing these rings. For example if your working around fine fabrics you'll not want any rings that have sharp edges that could snag. Your rings are also part of your total statement.
When purchasing necklaces be certain you know your neck size so that you get a good fit. This is very important when purchasing on line as you don't get a chance to try. If your neck is average in size then a 16″ necklace will look great, however if you have a somewhat larger than average neck then a 16″ necklace could be too tight. Measure the length of some of your favourite necklaces you already own. This will give you a good indication of what length you prefer. Opera necklaces which are over 30″ are terrific. They can be double wrapped, knotted, or whatever else your imagination comes up with. When choosing colored necklaces make sure its a color that compliments your skin tone. It may match your outfit fabulously but if it doesn't match or compliment your skin tone your look could be lost.
When purchasing bracelets you'll need to decide where you're going to wear them, and how noticeable you want them to be. The availability of size and shape is endless – you can go from large bangle bracelets to dainy gem bracelets. If it is a slip on bracelet be sure that it will fit over your hand. Make certain to measure your wrist as the fit of a bracelet is very important. To large and it will look sloppy and may even slide off. Too small can constrict your wrist movement.
When purchasing earrings – the shapes and styles are endless – from dangles to chandeliers to hoops to studs to buttons. From enamel to beads to gems to metal to wood. Size of the earrings is very important to the statement your making. The larger the earring the more noticeable and the more incorporated they become into your total look. Large earrings aren't for everyone – depending on your face size and shape they may actually detract rather than attract. Experiment and find what looks best on you.
Your jewelry choices are endless – no matter what your tastes, your likes, your dislikes. You'll be able to complete your look just the way you want it with little effort. So be sure to make your fashion statement!

ZURICH Swiss authorities have warned that a plan by Etihad Airways to buy a third of Switzerland's Darwin Airline does not meet legal requirements to be approved, as foreign stakes in European airlines come under increasing scrutiny.
Switzerland's Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) said that Darwin, rebranded as Etihad Regional, has until Sept. 30 to make changes to the agreement, which would then undergo a second review.
FOCA examined whether the deal complied with rules that the majority of Darwin shares must be owned by Swiss or EU citizens, who must also effectively control the airline.
Etihad, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, plans to acquire a 33.3 percent stake in Darwin, adding to its portfolio of minority stakes in global airlines, but the FOCA said the deal as it stands would nevertheless give Etihad effective control over the Swiss carrier.
"After looking at the documents, the FOCA concludes that the proposed mechanisms of cooperation can lead to control of Darwin by Etihad, and thus would be incompatible with statutory provisions," the agency said in a statement on Wednesday.
Etihad Regional said it was working closely with the FOCA and that the statement did not constitute a final decision on the deal.
"The Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) has clarified its position and confirmed that it has not made or announced a decision in relation to the control of Swiss-based Etihad Regional, operated by Darwin Airline," Etihad Regional said in a statement.
It said a majority of 66.7 per cent of the airline would be retained by Swiss investors and that their interests would not be compromised.
The statement comes months after the European Commission opened a similar investigation into several foreign holdings in European airlines including Etihad's 29.2 percent stake in Germany's Air Berlin and Delta Air Lines' 49 percent of Britain's Virgin [VA.UL].
Abu Dhabi-based Etihad already owns stakes in five other carriers including Air Berlin, Virgin Australia and Aer Lingus.
A spokesman for Air Berlin said on Thursday the German airline was not affected in any way by the Swiss announcement.

"Darrell Issa's McCarthyist Tactics Might Just Save Obama From the IRS Scandal"
"By cherry-picking evidence, overstating his case, and violating the principle of presumed innocence, the GOP rep only weakens himself."
"In one brief and repugnant interview, the GOP's chief congressional investigator into Internal Revenue Service abuses cherry-picked evidence, overstated his case, and violated the sacred American principle of presumed innocence.
If that was not enough, Rep. Darrell Issa, a California Republican, called White House Press Secretary Jay Carney a "paid liar," and couldn't explain why. "We're getting to proving it," he said.
Meet the best friend of a controversy-plagued Democratic White House: a demagogic Republican."
"Note what Issa is doing. He does it all the time--start an unsubstantiated allegation with an absolute declaration ("when in fact") and follow it with weasel words ("the indication is"). This smear-and-caveat technique allows him to ruin reputations without being called a liar."
They are circling the wagons to defend the liar in chief.
Aside from the OPINION of a left wing rag what they are saying is it's like Mark Furman framing O.J. Simpson.
There is no presumption of innocence where there is no criminal prosecution, you guys from the old Eastern Bloc always get that idea wrong. One need not deny what all the evidence says. If everyone was presumed innocent there would never need be a trial. One need not delude oneself to preserve American ideals, no one is threatening to send Obama to jail...yet.

Please read through the rules of how to do the rebates. Ask questions if you have any.
- WATCH the limit on the sign for your item. The limit could be 1 or up to 10 items.
- Once purchased, you will get a rebate "receipt" for each item that you purchased at the end of your normal receipt. Each slip (all connected) will have a rebate number on it. You can get the actual mail in rebate form from the area that has all the rebates or you can print them off at Menards.com. If you can't find the slip at the store, they will usually print it for you.
- ***Be sure to buy the limit on ONE receipt. Menards only accepts one receipt per rebate even if you haven't reached the limit
- Most of the rebates will go to one address, so you can put them all in the same envelope.
- Be sure to fill out each of the forms. I use address labels for mine.
- You will receive one white postcard in the mail .
- You do NOT have to spend the whole amount at Menards at one time and you can use it for future free after rebate items. They will put it through the machine to tell you what you have left OR write on it
- You can check status here http://www.rebateinternational.com/

Quaternary ammonium and phosphonium salts have been screened for their toxic effect on HeLa and K562 cancer cell lines, as well as on normal HUVEC cells. Tri-n-butyl-n-hexadecylphosphonium bromide, the first phosphonium salt with a halogen anion tested against HeLa cells, was 12 times more potent (IC50 <5 μM after 24 and 48 h) than the clinically used reference compound cisplatin and 17 times more potent than tri-n-hexyltetradecylphosphonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first phosphonium salt to be evaluated in HeLa cells. However, it was inactive against K562 cells (24 and 48 h). According to a caspase-3/7 assay, its toxicity has not been connected with the induction of apoptosis. In contrast, triphenylalkylphosphonium iodides with shorter C1–5 alkyl chains were inactive against HeLa cells but very active against K562 cells (IC50=6–10 μM after 48 h). Phosphonium cations with halide counterions proved to be more potent than those with (CF3SO2)2N− as the anion, as in the anticancer agent NSC 747251, or other anions in molecules with similar alkyl chain lengths. On the other hand, a series of ammonium salts containing a short methylthiomethyl or methoxymethyl side chain revealed low cytotoxicity (IC50 >500 μM after 24 and 48 h) against both HeLa and K562 cancer cell lines as well as normal HUVEC cells, showing that the nontoxic N+CH2YMe (Y=S, O) structural motif in ammonium salts could be suitable for further optimization and development, especially in transfection experiments.

"Doctors take days off--why not PIs?" V.I. Warshawski demands. But when America's hardest-working private eye goes clubbing, a stranger is shot and dies in her arms.
V.I. has been visiting Club Gouge, Chicago's edgiest nightspot, where a woman known as the Body Artist turns her naked body into a canvas for the audience to paint on.
The show attracts all kinds of people, from a menacing off-duty cop to Ukrainian mobsters and Iraq war vets--and V.I.'s impetuous cousin, Petra. A tormented young painter shows up, too, and the intricate designs she creates on the Body Artist drives on of the vets into a violent rage.
When the painter is shot, the cops figure it's an easy collar--PTSD vet goes off the rails, stalks then kills young woman. But the vet's family hires V.I. to clear his name, and the detective uncovers a chain of ugly truths that stretch all the way from Iraq to Chicago's South Side.
The evening takes a strange turn when one woman's sketch triggers a violent outburst from a man at a nearby table. Quickly subdued, the man-an Iraqi war vet-leaves the club. Days later, the woman is shot outside the club. She dies in V.I.'s arms, and the police move quickly to arrest the angry vet.
A shooting in Chicago is nothing new, certainly not to V.I., who is hired by the vet's family to clear his name. As V.I. seeks answers, her investigation will take her from the North Side of Chicago to the far reaches of the Gulf War.
Private eye V.I. Warshawski knows her friend Consuelo's pregnancy is already risky-she's sixteen and diabetic. Despite V.I.'s efforts to provide Consuelo with proper care, both mother and daughter die in the local hospital. Suspecting malpractice, V.I. begins an investigation- and a reluctant romance with an ER doctor. But deadly complications arise when a series of vicious murders and an attack on a women's clinic lead her to suspect a cold-blooded cover-up. And if V.I. isn't careful, she just might have delivered her final case...
Chicago politics-past, present, and future-take center stage in New York Times bestselling author Sara Peretsky's complex and compelling new V.I. Warshawski novel. When Warshawski is asked to find a man who's been missing for four decades, a search that she figured would be futile becomes lethal. Old skeletons from the city's racially charged history, as well as haunting family secrets-her own and those of the elderly sisters who hired her-rise up with a vengeance.
V.I. Warshawski returns in the spectacular new novel from the New York Times bestselling author.
Carmilla, Queen of the Night, is a shape-shifting raven whose fictional exploits thrill girls all over the world. When tweens in Chicago's Carmilla Club hold an initiation ritual in an abandoned cemetery, they stumble on an actual corpse, a man stabbed through the heart in a vampire-style slaying.
The girls include daughters of some of Chicago's most powerful families: the grandfather of one, Chaim Salanter, is among the world's wealthiest men; the mother of another, Sophy Durango, is the running for United States Senate.
For V. I. Warshawski, the questions multiply faster than the answers. Is the killing linked to a hostile media campaign against Sophy Durango? Or to Chaim Salanter's childhood in Nazi-occupied Lithuania? As V.I. struggles for answers, she finds herself fighting enemies who are no less terrifying for being all to human.
Sara Paretsky is the author of sixteen books, including her renowned V. I. Warshawski novels, the most recent of which is the New York Times bestseller Hardball. Her many awards include the Cartier Diamond Dagger Award for lifetime achievement from the British Crime Writers' Association. She lives in Chicago.

Great location. Close to the wharf, cable cars; we walked everywhere or took the city bus. One of the greatest "finds" we stumbled upon was the City Walking Tours" offered thru' the Library. We found the brochure at City Hall ( a great place and offers a free tour) and we took 3 community tours. The most memorable was the Painted Ladies.... our walking guide was a retired hematolgoist oncologist who was passionate about his tour. We even went into a completely renovated painted lady type home restored back to its original state, including the wall paper. It was amazing and the highlight of the trip. Older hotel (at least the section we stayed in) ...seemed to put a lot of Canadians in that building. Quiet and enjoyable...City view.

Just returned from a 4-night stay at this wonderful Park City gem! This place is everything I love about small boutique hotels, but better! From the personalized, attentive service, the unique design/décor, to the fresh, delicious food.
I don't think I've seen a more beautifully designed hotel – this place deserves to be featured in Elle Décor as much as Travel & Leisure. Every single space is maximized and elegantly decorated with period accents. Our top floor Town King room was bright & comfortable. The beautiful bathroom & amenities made it hard to leave our room! Only warning – the walls can be a bit thin if you have some frisky neighbors, as we did.
The service at WSH exceeds all standards. Everyone we met was so friendly, welcoming, and made us feel so at home. All of our needs were seamlessly taken care of. Megan, Haley, Danielle & Caleb were awesome!
We looked forward to the fabulous daily breakfasts from Chef Ernesto – some of the best we've ever had on vacation or anywhere! And the après ski snacks were always a perfect treat! My husband loved the local beer selection while I enjoyed the local artisan teas.
This place is truly a work of art – one I feel lucky to have enjoyed. Thanks WSH!

This should be pretty simple, but I am not figuring it out. I have a large code base more than 4GB under Linux. A few header files and xml files are generated during build (using gnu make). If it matters the header files are generated based on xml files.
I want to search for a keyword in header file that was last modified after a time instance ( Its my start compile time), and similarly xml files, but separate grep queries.
If I run it on all possible header or xml files, it take a lot of time. Only those that were auto generated. Further the search has to be recursive, since there are a lot of directories and sub-directories.

Here's The First City To Heed Obama's Call To Pass Paid Sick Leave
CREDIT: Shutterstock
On Tuesday, the city council of Tacoma, WA passed paid sick leave on an eight-to-one vote.
The leave is modest, requiring businesses to offer just three paid days off for illness a year, but it will rise to five days in the employee's second year of employment. The leave can also be used by the victims of stalking and domestic violence. It will take effect in February of next year.
Tacoma is the first place to pass a paid-sick-days law after President Obama highlighted the issue. Ahead of his State of the Union and in the address itself, Obama called on Congress to pass legislation that would give all Americans access to a paid day off if they or their family members got sick. But barring that, he called on cities and states to pass their own laws.
And progress at the city and state level has been rapid. Tacoma is now the 16th city to pass paid sick leave, and three states — Connecticut, California, and Massachusetts — have done the same.
CREDIT: Dylan Petrohilos/ThinkProgress
Comparing those figures to just 2013 shows how quickly the idea has caught on. As of the end of 2013, just one state and six cities had such legislation.
More are likely to come this year. Maryland, New Hampshire, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington are all considering bills, while lawmakers in Michigan, Minnesota, and New Jersey are expected to take it up this year as well. A bill is also being considered in Philadelphia, PA.
Even with that progress, many Americans don't have access to paid sick leave. The United States is the only developed country without a national requirement, and that leaves nearly 40 percent of Americans without the benefit.

The holiday season is going to be here before you know it, and savvy holiday shoppers are already thinking about big gifts before December rolls around. There are plenty of things to get the person you love, but jewelry is the classic romantic holiday gift that both men and women can appreciate. Buying anything to suit somebody else's style can be difficult, and jewelry is no exception. While finding and buying jewelry online is easy enough, you'll want to avoid getting anything run-of-the-mill – you don't want to waste money on something that your loved one won't even like! If you are really looking to surprise someone this holiday season, here are some tips that will help you get them a gift that they will love.
Observe their style
If you really want to get a feel for what your loved one will like, take a look at the jewelry that they already wear. For instance, if they tend to like simple pieces, don't get them anything too flashy. If they tend to wear a lot of silver, stick with silver pieces or branch out and get them white gold. If you try to mimic the recipient's style when shopping, you should be able to find something that's distinctive, but similar enough to their existing collection that it will go well with their wardrobe.
Avoid rings (unless you're already married)
Rings are in style right now, but they're also a significant symbol of commitment in our culture. Even if you explicitly say that you aren't getting your significant other a promise ring or an engagement ring, other people (and possibly even the person you're giving it to) may not be convinced. There are plenty of other nice options like necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and other pieces that don't carry such heavy romantic symbolism. Of course, none of this applies if you are just getting a nice ring for your mother.
Think about a symbolic gift
Rings may be out of the question for some couples, but that doesn't mean that your jewelry gift has to lack symbolism. Gemstones come in a variety of colors and cuts, and some have some significant characteristics that can make the gift more meaningful. Consider getting your loved one jewelry that highlights their birthstone or do a little research on the historical significance of certain gems and minerals. You could give them jewelry made with jade, as it used to be associated with royalty, or choose a lapis lazuli necklace, as this stone was believed to keep your body healthy and your soul at peace.
Ask for help
Are you truly stuck on what to get someone? Since you can't ask them directly about what they want, do the next best thing: ask their friends or other loved ones for advice. Nobody is going to know this person's style better than their friends and family. Take these people shopping or send them a few links to gifts you're thinking about purchasing. Their input can be invaluable, and they could even get a little information from your recipient about what they really want for the holidays.
These are some of the best ways to get someone the perfect jewelry gift. Can you think of any other holiday jewelry buying hacks?

Virginia Law School Offers Best Quality of Life – Princeton Review
by Harrison Barnes Follow Me on Google+
Click Here to Find Law Student Jobs on LawCrossing
Throughout the last decade, from 2000 to 2010, Virginia Law School was considered fifth among the nation's law schools in placing law clerks in the United States Supreme Court. Even the hardcore critics of the Princeton Review ranked Virginia Law School as No.1 when it came to "Best Quality of Life" and the 2nd best in the nation in "Classroom Experience."
The UVA is one of the most selective law schools in the nation and has an average acceptance rate near nine percent. The class of 2013 had a media LSAT score of 170 and median GPA of 3.86.
Virginia Law School receives little public funding except in-state tuition subsidies. As such, the institution depends upon private donors and less open to federal dictates than other law schools. The library at Virginia Law, the Arthur J. Morris Law Library is one of the oldest and biggest among the law school libraries of the nation and has more than 860,000 volumes that also include federal, state and international documents, treaty manuscripts and an online research database.
The law school is well known for its programs like Law & Business, Law & Public Service, Legal & Constitutional History, Criminal Law etcetera including law study programs focused on diversity, environment, animals, intellectual property, environment, immigration and etcetera.

The law school has special programs for students to develop legal writing skills, professional ethics, trial advocacy and public speaking and other profession-oriented practical courses.
UVA has 20 special clinics and more than six study abroad programs ranging from Israel to Tokyo. Third year law students also have the opportunity to go for dual degrees including degrees from University of Paris and other French law programs that allow successful students eligible for the French Bar examination.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity

Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
The initial applications of single-use filtration products were for small-scale processes in laboratories where total process volumes were either quite small or exhibited low solids content. Today, single-use filtration systems are evolving quickly to address expanding applications, ranging from sterile filtration in final filling to the handling of hazardous or toxic products. Further, new frontiers such as virus filtration are leading the call for continued development.
The cellulose-based Seitz® depth filter product line from Pall Life Sciences has undergone such a technological evolution. Specifically, the new Pall Stax™ single-use depth filter platform was developed to address the biopharmaceutical industry's current and future demands.
A vital requirement for any large-scale filtration system is that the performance scales up from development trials to commercial-scale production. Due to batch-to-batch variability and uncertainty in scale-up performance of a filtration solution, process developers typically apply a safety margin of 30% or greater for filtration area.
Although allowing for process variability is a good engineering practice, adding additional filtration area based on uncertain scale-up performance leads to poor economics of the clarification step.
In developing a design concept for a large-scale, single-use depth filter platform, Pall considered ease-of use and process aspects to derive a system design based on stacking depth-filter capsules vertically within a chassis. This design was preferred to that of a horizontal arrangement to aid installation, venting, and draining of the assembly as well as minimize the footprint needed.
The design of the inlet/outlet manifold (distribution manifold) enables the greatest flexibility in the way the process-scale chassis can be operated (Figure 1). In bottom in/bottom out configuration, the process flow is through the distribution manifold at the bottom of the stack. The alternative operating mode of bottom in/top out or top in/bottom out allows for the process flow to enter and exit from opposite ends of the assembly.
Switching between operating configurations is achieved by the simple addition or removal of the second distribution manifold at the top of the stack. The use of the bottom in/top out or top in/bottom out operating mode is potentially applicable for large area, single-layer systems operated at high feed flow flux rates and/or for ease of product handling. The bottom in/bottom out operating mode will otherwise apply.
Additionally the design of the Pall Stax platform provides users with the flexibility to operate the stack in a serial flow mode, whereby two grades of filter media can be operated in series within one chassis. Furthermore, because of the small footprint, multiple chassis can be placed into a small area.
Filterability trials were conducted to assess the scalability of the Stax platform. The trials focused on operating with single-layer modules, which require a higher feed flow rate through the filter assembly than double layer filters, and will amplify the effect of any hydrodynamic losses through the filter assembly. This provided for the worst-case scenario.
The test program included a comparison of the performance of the Pall Stax assembly with other Pall sheet filter formats to provide scalability data across the product range.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Algorithm 835: MultRoot---a Matlab package for computing polynomial roots and multiplicities
Multiplicity (mathematics)
In mathematics, the multiplicity of a member of a multiset is the number of times it appears in the multiset. For example, the number of times a given polynomial equation has a root at a given point. The notion of multiplicity is important to be able to count correctly without specifying exceptions (for example, double roots counted twice). Hence the expression, "counted with (sometimes implicit) multiplicity".

Zero of a function
In mathematics, a zero, also sometimes called a root, of a real-, complex- or generally vector-valued function ¿ is a member of the domain of ¿ such that ¿ vanishes at, that is, In other words, a "zero" of a function ¿ is a value for x that produces a result of zero ("0"). For example, consider the function ¿ defined by the formula ¿ has a root at 3 since If the function maps real numbers to real numbers, its zeros are the x-coordinates of the points where its graph meets the x-axis.

MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a numerical computing environment and fourth-generation programming language. Developed by MathWorks, MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, Java, and Fortran.
more from Wikipedia
In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression of finite length constructed from variables and constants, using only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents. For example, x ¿ x/4 + 7 is a polynomial, but x ¿ 4/x + 7x is not, because its second term involves division by the variable x (4/x), and also because its third term contains an exponent that is not an integer (3/2).

Arbitrary-precision arithmetic
In computer science, arbitrary-precision arithmetic, also called bignum arithmetic, multiple precision arithmetic, or sometimes infinite-precision arithmetic, indicates that calculations are performed on numbers which digits of precision are limited only by the available memory of the host system. This contrasts with the faster fixed-precision arithmetic found in most arithmetic logic unit (ALU) hardware, which typically offers between 16 and 64 bits of precision.
more from Wikipedia
Condition number
In the field of numerical analysis, the condition number of a function with respect to an argument measures the asymptotically worst case of how much the function can change in proportion to small changes in the argument. The "function" is the solution of a problem and the "arguments" are the data in the problem. A problem with a low condition number is said to be well-conditioned, while a problem with a high condition number is said to be ill-conditioned.
