Approaches to Teaching Medieval English Drama
- Editor: Richard K. Emmerson
- Pages: xvii & 182 pp.
- Published: 1990
- ISBN: 9780873525312 (Cloth)
- ISBN: 9780873525329 (Paperback)
"Practical, informative, and inspiring."
"This is an impressive addition to the MLA series on Approaches to Teaching World Literature, worthy of circulation beyond its intended audience."
Anyone who has recently attended a professional meeting devoted to medieval drama or witnessed a revival of a medieval play knows that the genre is alive and flourishing. This volume offers help for new teachers of these works, encourages experienced teachers to rethink classroom presentation of familiar plays, and suggests new ways for all teachers to integrate medieval drama into undergraduate courses.
Like other books in the Approaches series, this one is divided into two parts. The first part, "Materials," reviews editions, translations, and anthologies of medieval drama and discusses useful secondary readings for both students and instructors. In the second part, "Approaches," seventeen essays present a rich array of ideas for teaching medieval English drama, from the liturgical texts of the tenth century to the morality plays and cycle plays of the fifteenth century. Several authors focus on particular classroom strategies; others apply methodologies informed by theoretical approaches such as feminism, semiotics, and anthropology; still others discuss staging and performance of the plays.

Allergies Health Center
Women's Guide to Conquering Allergies
Allergies: Time to Take Action
Sometimes people think they have a cold that just doesn't go away, May says. Allergies can mimic cold symptoms – and the chronic congestion or drainage you attribute to an illness can actually be signs of allergies.
The most common symptom of seasonal allergies is nasal congestion, or a stuffy nose, Bassett says. The difference is that colds typically come on suddenly, last 5 to 7 days and don't respond to most allergy medications.
The first step to treating allergies, Bassett says, is to confirm your diagnosis. Antihistamines and decongestants are the most common types of treatments used to alleviate allergy symptoms. Don't wait until symptoms kick in before taking your allergy medications. As the weather gets warmer, pollens and molds are released into the air. Check your local pollen forecasts and mark your calendar early in the year. Start early and prepare by taking allergy medications just before the allergy season starts.
"If you wait to start the medications, you're already losing a lot of sleep," May says.
How Allergies Impact Your Life
Depending on where you live in the country, you might discover dust mite and mold allergies get worse in the spring and the fall — mimicking the peak cycles of seasonal allergies. That's why correctly identifying your allergy triggers early is important.
Some people who think they have seasonal allergies are very surprised to find they have a year-round allergy to dust mites or mold, May says. More than two-thirds of people actually have allergy symptoms year-round, according to the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI).
"Dust mites like humidity so anytime it's rainy and damp, their populations increase," May says. "It coincides with growing season and aggravates the whole problem because people are not targeting the right allergen."
Allergies can also trigger asthma attacks. Allergic asthma is the most common type of asthma. Women are more prone to asthma than men, and are also more likely to require urgent care as a result. Common signs of asthma include wheezing, nighttime cough, or trouble breathing after exercise.

Chris Putman, File, Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Former Penn State defensive back Adam Taliaferro inspired fans and alumni after he recovered from a spinal cord injury on the football field so serious that doctors once feared he would never walk again.
More than a decade afterward, it's Taliaferro who is now trying to help his alma mater through a challenging period.
The football player-turned-lawyer is one of three new alumni-elected members of the university's Board of Trustees officially taking their seats when the board holds its next meeting Friday in Scranton. Taliaferro, financial services executive Anthony Lubrano and retired Navy SEAL Capt. Ryan McCombie assume the posts at a crucial time for Penn State: as the school awaits the findings of an internal investigation, led by former FBI Director Louis Freeh, into the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
Of the three trustees, Taliaferro is the most well-known by virtue of his motivational recovery from a severe neck injury after his helmet hit the knee of Ohio State tailback Jerry Westbrooks on Sept. 23, 2000, in Columbus. He has since written a book and started a foundation to help athletes recovering from similar injuries.
"It's not just something I'm doing to put it on my resume," Taliaferro, now a lawyer in suburban Philadelphia, said in a recent phone interview. In November, Taliaferro also won election as a Democratic member of the Board of Freeholders in Gloucester County, N.J.
"It's a great opportunity to help a place that's really given me a lot over my whole life," he said of Penn State.
Name recognition turned Taliaferro into an early favorite in the race for three alumni trustee seats up for election this past spring. Nine of the 32 seats on the board are filled by alumni; the rest are filled by various means, including appointment or by university or state officials.
Taliaferro came in first with more than 15,600 over 37,000-plus votes cast — a record turnout sparked by criticism by many alumni over the board's actions in the frantic weeks following Sandusky's arrest in November.
Taliaferro said he wanted alumni to know that "just because I have name recognition, I have no special entitlements. ... I want to prove to them that I'm there for more than just my name."
The trustees' ouster of Taliaferro's old coach, the late Joe Paterno, especially drew the ire of vocal alumni groups. The trustees cited in part a moral obligation for Paterno to do more to relay to off-campus police the account of graduate assistant Mike McQueary's account in 2001 of witnessing abuse in the Penn State showers.
Paterno's supporters say trustees never afforded the revered coach the opportunity to tell his full story and rushed to judgment before firing him.
Sandusky is awaiting sentencing after being convicted on 45 of 48 criminal counts last month, including charges related to the 2001 encounter witnessed by McQueary.
Taliaferro, McCombie and Lubrano each ran on platforms that included increasing transparency and openness at Penn State, to varying degrees. But Taliaferro said the incoming trio wasn't joining the board to create divisiveness.
"To accomplish everything, you have to work with people. It's just can't be us three with these ideas," Taliaferro said. "It's not just 'Our way or the highway.' We all have to figure that out. ... The right way to approach things."
Lubrano has been by far the most outspoken of the new alumni trustees. A prominent donor whose name is on the campus baseball stadium, Lubrano has been critical of the board's actions since the scandal's early days in November.
He promises to maintain his vocal presence — even though he must now work with many of the board members he criticized.

Searching in large logfiles with Glogg
Programmers and Linux administrators appreciate the benefits of event logs. The Glogg tool is the perfect choice for searching even large logfiles.
Linux is a pretty verbose operating system, in that many services generate messages for all kinds of events and write them in logfiles that typically reside in /var/log. When a system is hit by unexpected hiccups and glitches, investigating the logfiles can give you a relatively easy way to find the offending culprit – even if you're not an expert.

Dead Island (Xbox 360)
From GameWinners
Getting kills without dulling your weapon
Killing zombies takes a toll on your weapon. However when it is on its last legs it is not completely useless. Throwing your weapons can damage enemies without dulling the weapon. If you have a weapon worth keeping, but it is almost used up, keep throwing it at zombies until you can repair it again.
Easy money
- Use the following trick if you want to modify, repair, or create a weapon but are short on money. If the craft table is inside of a store, search the cash register. Occasionally you can find a couple hundred dollars.
tnhsrogie rfntme
- When you reach the city of Moresby and have access to the warehouse, there are four weapons located inside, the wrench, baseball bat, hammer, and knife. Selling those four items at the church will generate approximately between $400 to $2,000 per trip. Repeat the process as many times as desired.
Easy experience
Reach Ope's Cave in Act 3, then use the "Duplicate Weapons" glitch to copy your most valuable weapon. Sell the weapons to a vendor to get a lot of money, then buy Oleander from a vendor if it is available. Taking as much Oleander as you can buy, fast travel back to Ope's Cave and turn it in to the tribesman that give you the Continuous Event "Dreamtime". Each time you turn in five Oleander Blossoms, you will receive $1 and 1,000 experience points. Repeat this as many times as desired.
Easy champagne
In the Slums there is an abandoned building at the bottom of the map. Once cleared out, you will be able to quick travel to there. In the back of the building are two rooms. Each has a fridge that may contain a bottle of champagne. If not, quick travel to another area then quick travel back as many times as desired.
Easy "Military-Industrial Complex" challenge
While doing the "Bitter Return" mission there is a mounted machine gun on the balcony of city hall. Mount the machine gun and fire away. Every bullet fired counts towards the "Military-Industrial Complex" challenge. Keep shooting and you will complete all four levels.
Killing humans
This trick works best if you play as Logan. Humans can use weapons, and so can you. However when it comes down to a gunfight you are both evenly matched. A good way to kill humans with little effort is to throw modded weapons. However, there are a few exceptions. The weapon Must be a sharp weapon. Blunt weapons only damage them slightly. The military machete works best. The weapon must have either a Poison mod or a Shock mod. Fire will not do anything. Make sure you upgrade the weapon to at least level 3. You may want to mod a powerful weapon because it will have minimal affect against stronger humans. Keep your distance when throwing, and have plenty of ammunition. This is one reason why Logan is better for this, because thrown objects can come back to him. However, if you have a clear view of the target, throw the weapon and they will die instantly.
Killing large groups of zombies
When you encounter large groups of zombies or have ran and have a lot of them following, use the following trick to deal with them. Look for a nearby vehicle and sprint to it. Jump on top of it and crouch on the hood. While there you can still hit the zombies. Note: Do not do this on the roof of the vehicle; you will not be able to hit them, and they can still hit you rarely. Note: Use the analog style of fighting to do more decapitations and swing your weapon faster.
Hidden provocative photographs
In Act 2, enter the mayor's office in City Hall before it gets attacked by zombies. Knock down the painting on the very back wall in the room behind the desk. You will find three photos of a semi-nude blonde woman.
Chrome 2 reference
Play the "Born To Be Wild" quest. Enter the hotel and talk to Mike Davies. Then, move to the next room with the workbench. Enter the next room with a computer to reboot. Look at the wall to the side of the desk with the fan on it, to see a Chrome 2 poster.
Friday The Thirteenth reference
Created by XCVii007r1.
League Of Legends reference
Shortly after the Lifeguard Tower (Exodus) is completed, there is a quest giver in a bungalow to the left of the main road named Annie. She initiates the quest by saying "Have you seen my bear?" and asks you to retrieve the teddy bear for her. In League Of Legends, there is a champion also named Annie. In that game, Annie's catchphrase is "Have you seen my bear Tibbers?"
Lost reference
Do the quest to clear out the Lifeguard Tower at the start of the game. Clear the garage of the few zombies there. Go inside and you will hear a radio broadcast of an Oceanic Flight in an emergency descent to an island due to engine failure.
Pimp My Ride reference
Do the quest near the end of the Resort level, where you take the big truck to the mechanic to turn it into a homemade tank or fortress. While talking to him, just before you have to defend the shop while he does his work, he will say that he is going to "Pimp your ride".
Easy "10 Heads Are Better Than 1" achievement or trophy
Have the assault rifle which is acquired during the second part of the game. Jump on a car and wait until the zombies are next to the car. Then, just shoot their heads. Even if you get killed while doing this, your head count does not reset as long as you do not kill a zombie by any other method except a headshot.
Easy "Light my fire" achievement or trophy
- Start Act 2 and go near the lighthouse by the boats with Molotov cocktails. Kite as many zombies as possible to one of the stones where the crushed boats are located. You can get stuck there and allow zombies to overrun you. Toss a Molotov cocktail at the correct moment to set them on fire.
- Play the "Misery Wagon" mission in Act I. During this mission you have to find a mechanic to improve the truck's armor. You will need a Molotov cocktail, which can be obtained at the lifeguard tower after bringing some alcohol to Mike. Go to the workshop to find seven zombies nearby. Move close to them until their red skulls appear on your radar. Leave the car, turn around, and move back to the street, where three Infected will be spawn. Turn around again then run back to the workshop. Climb the ladder found on the left side of the workshop. Turn around. Do not move too far away from the ladder or the Infected will run to the other side of the workshop and reach the roof. Move only two or three steps toward sthe middle of the workshop, so the Infected get closer to the other seven zombies. After all ten targets are near to one another, drop the Molotov cocktail on them.
- During Act II, find a pistol and at least twenty rounds of ammunition. Find a location with an abandoned car or a bus that has its roof accessible with over a dozen zombies nearby. Jump to the highest point of the vehicle and shoot once at every zombie you can find to move them to your position. After all of them have reached your vehicle, force them to move to the same side. If needed, kick them or shoot them again one time to make them track you faster. Once there are at least ten zombies close to each other, drop the Molotov cocktail on them and jump down from the vehicle to avoid the ensuing fire.
- Note: This requires the Bloodbath Arena DLC. Go to the Arena and choose any difficulty setting. Kill the first few waves as usual. When the number of zombies exceeds ten, round them up for a Molotov cocktail.
Easy "One is all I need" achievement or trophy
- Play Act 3. When you get to the Geo-Phram Lab Complex, you will get a quest to go to Ope's Cave (to the west), where a native tribe lives, to get a blood sample. Once there, you will be asked to step into an arena and prove yourself as a warrior. The first wave consists of at least twelve Infected. Use your highest damage weapon and aim for their heads.
- Play Act 1 "Resort" and the "Seek & Loot" mission. You will be sent to the left corner of the map, where the "City Tunnel Gas Station" is located. Once you arrived the "Waterdance" mission will begin. The goal of this mission is to shut down the electricity at three points around of the gas station, which are shown as red flags on the map (Screenshot). The left flag is placed right next to the tunnel, which will be used at the end of Act I to leave the Resort to the town of Moresby. The tunnel itself is blocked by several cars which are on fire. There is an abandoned car in front of the tunnel which is important. Trigger the spawn of an Infected at this location by moving close to the entrance to the tunnel. The Infected will appear inside of the tunnel and will need to pass the burning cars to reach you and also catch on fire. When this happens, jump into the car in front of the tunnel immediately and wait until the Infected has reached your position. Then, kill him with one hit (Screenshot). It is impossible to trigger the Infected to spawn more than four times in a row. You must leave this location to reset the counter for the Infected to spawn by using a car. One can be found next to the gas station's shop. You may want to relocate it near the tunnel before starting the fight to make the entire process easier. Drive near the arena entrance, which is indicated by the blue dot on the map (Screenshot), then turn around and return to the gas station. If you move close to the tunnel entrance, another Infected should be spawn. Note: All five Infected kills must be made in succession, without killing anything else in between. This you must be careful while driving.
Easy "How many days exactly?" achievement or trophy
Disconnect your online connection, go to the system settings and advance the system date by one month. Resume the game while offline to unlock the achievement or trophy.
Easy "Oh, No You Don't" achievement or trophy
This can only be earned with Sam B, and after unlocking his Tackle ability. Play Chapter 16, "Locked Up". Once you get to the checkpoint where you have to "Find another way to the cell block control room", you must go around to get to the control room. When you open the door to the cell blocks, there is a stairway going down and there you will see the Ram. Let him follow you upstairs and go back in the hallway. Leave the door open. The Ram will try to ram you down, but he will not be able to get past the door. This is where you can weaken him until his life is close to dead. Then, deliver the final blows with you Tackle ability.
Easy "Rootin' Tootin' Lootin'" achievement or trophy
Search for orange colored weapons. Purchasing them or receiving them as quest rewards will not count. They must be found in crates or looted from enemies you kill. Consider using Purna as acharacter, as she has a skill with three levels in her survival tree that allow a better chance to find better loot in increments of 5%, 10%, 15% respectively. Drive around the Resort in Act I and search as many named locations as possible (bungalows, gas stations, and even the big resort). Note: Chest rarity does not seem to affect on item rarity.
Easy "Swing Them Sticks" achievement or trophy
As long as you have the analog control scheme selected, any kills you get by running over zombies in a car will count towards the 150 needed.
Walkthrough (Definitive Edition)
Duplicate weapons
Note: The following tricks required an unpatched version of the game.
- Throw the weapon that you want to duplicate. Before it hits the ground, press Up. Then, choose to drop the weapon that is equipped. Exit out of the menu and pick up both items. Repeat this as many times as desired. Sell them for easy money.
- Hold [Throw] with the weapon you want to duplicate, then hold Y + RT.
- When using the "Duplicate weapons" glitch and playing as the character Logan, the glitch will not duplicate the weapon you throw if the weapon is returned to you by Logan's "Boomerang" ability. The easiest way around this is to wait until the weapon you throw to perform the glitch hits the ground. If timed correctly, you should be able to tell whether or not the word "Boomerang" appears on your screen when your chosen weapon hits the ground, and still be able to drop it so that it duplicates itself.

I teach computing at a university in Georgia. When I'm not doing that, I enjoy cooking, reading, and wine tasting.
I teach because it's rewarding to help students have the "Aha! experience," and that happens several times each term. It makes me feel really good to help others learn the things that I know and to learn new things myself in the process.

" It was a really lovely weekend trip I had, and the hostel was a nice place to relax. The staff member, James, was extremely welcoming and hospitable, and the other guests were kind too. The place had all the basic ammenities, and although was in a bustling location, the place was quiet and comfortable. It is appropriate if you want a place to crash after partying, want to make new friends, have a relaxing evening in and for many other purposes. I would definately come back again. "- Anônimo

Re: Tyrell Biggs vs Carl "The Truth" Williams
Believe it or not, this fight was scheduled to happen in January 1990, but Truth had to bail out at the last minute due to a supposed back injury in training. The fight was scheduled for 12 rounds, and was for the USBA regional title, held by Carl Williams. Biggs wound up fighting Ossie Ocasio in what turned out to be a 10 round sleep fest, and in the main event, Tim Witherspoon KO'd jouneyman Jeff Sims.
I suppose that if Biggs and Williams had gone at it on that night as originally scheduled, I would have picked Biggs by a close decision, but if the fight had taken place against Williams in his prime ( 5 years earlier), then I would always pick Truth to win.

Although the importance of understanding stakeholder beliefs regarding environmental policy has been noted by many authors, research focusing on the heterogeneity of stakeholder views is still very scarce and concentrated on a product-oriented definition of stakeholders. The aim of the present study is to address this gap by examining environmental policy beliefs of stakeholder groups engaged in protected area management. Questionnaires containing 73 five-point Likert scale items were administered to eight different stakeholder groups involved in the management of Greek protected areas. Items referred to core beliefs on environmental policy, namely, the value framework and sustainable development, and secondary beliefs, that is, beliefs on social consensus and ecotourism development. Our study used as a starting point respondent recruitment on the basis of a traditional product-centered approach. We investigated whether environmental policy beliefs can be used to effectively segregate stakeholders in well-defined segments, which override the product-oriented definition of stakeholders. Indeed, K-means clustering revealed an innovation-introduction and an implementation-charged sample segment. The instrument utilized in this research proved quite reliable and valid in measuring stakeholder environmental policy beliefs. Furthermore, the methodology implied that stakeholder groups differ in a significant number of belief-system elements. On the other hand, stakeholder groups were effectively distinguished on a small set of both core and secondary beliefs. Therefore, the instrument used can be an effective tool for determining and monitoring environmental policy beliefs of stakeholders in protected area management. This is of considerable importance in the Greek case, given the recent establishment of 27 administrative bodies of protected areas, all of which are required to incorporate public consultation into management practices.

BURJ AL ARAB HOTEL - Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Hotel: http://www.jumeirah.com/en/Hotels-and-Resorts/Destinations/Dubai/Burj-Al-Arab
Description/Importance to Society
The Burj Al Arab Hotel, otherwise known as "The Tower of the Arabs", is one of the largest hotel in the world, the second-tallest in Dubai, UAE, standing at 1,053 feet tall. This hotel serves as an icon of Dubai, whose people see it as a symbol that shows Dubai's new modern trends: trends of very large, fancy, and expensive buildings. It was built to imitate the features of a sail on a boat, and it is located on an artificial island off of Dubai's Jemeirah Beach (previously called Chicago Beach). The Burj Al Arab is considered the ultimate in hotel service, hospitality, and luxury, featuring two-floor suites, butler service twenty-four hours a day, help desks on every floor, and a jacuzzi in every room. It is rated as a five-star deluxe hotel, however many describe it as the "world's only seven star hotel". The hotel also features six five-star restaurants, all massive in size and variety. The hotel is seventy floors high, holding just over two hundred rooms (all luxury suites), and takes up an area of over 1.2 million square feet. The hotel is also one of the priciest in more ways than one: it cost $650 million dollars to build, and it costs anywhere from $15 thousand to $28 thousand to stay the night. The building was completed in October, 1999 and opened just before the start of the new century in December. It is now normally labelled as the most iconic and most recognizable building in Dubai.

Design and Construction Information
Construction on the Burj Al Arab began in 1994 and spanned almost six years of construction. The Burj Al Arab was designed by British architect Tom Wright of WS Atkins PLC, while the design and construction was managed by Canadian engineer Rick Gregory. It was built by a South African constructor, Murray and Roberts and Al Habtoor Engineering. Since the hotel was built on an artificial island, the designers and construction workers needed use a civil engineering specialty. Using geotechnical engineering, they were able to secure a foundation in the island sands, a difficult task on a small, man-made island. Foundation was then held in place by a surface layer of large rocks circled with concrete and honeycomb powder. Ocean engineers were then used to protect the foundation from erosion and water damage due to the ocean surrounding the island. Due to the sheer size of the structure, construction and transportation engineers needed to bring in over seventy thousand cubic meters of concrete and nine thousand tons of steel to the site to complete the project. Once the overall structure was set in place, architects and construction engineers go in to finish the design of the rooms and suites. However, the largest problem facing the engineers was the temperature of the structure's interior. Thanks to air pressure and ocean mist, large amounts of condensation would form inside the structure, which, thanks to the Middle Eastern heat, made the structure dangerously hot. Environmental engineers were brought in to fix the problem and came up with the idea to string several cold air nozzles down from the top of the structure, and blast a one meter cold air pocket down the sail. This got rid of both the condensation and the temperature problems at the same time. Since the hotel started construction back in 1994, the sheer magnitude of such a project was a new concept to many of the engineers. Many had not taken on building a structure so large that was in such a unique shape. It was a very new and very amazing concept for architecture and civil engineering everywhere.

Athletics 3, Tigers 1: Josh Donaldson launched a walk-off three-run homer with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift host Oakland to a dramatic win.
The blast ended a phenomenal pitchers' duel between Scott Kazmir (6-2), who got the win after allowing just one run and striking out eight in his first complete game in nearly eight years, and Detroit starter Anibal Sanchez. The Tigers removed Sanchez with one out in the ninth clinging to a 1-0 lead before the Athletics completed a rally against Tigers closer Joe Nathan (2-1).
Torii Hunter hit an opposite-field home run off Kazmir in the fourth to provide all the offense over the game's first eight frames. Sanchez was charged with one run on three hits and struck out nine while issuing just one walk for Detroit, which fell for the eighth time in 10 games following a 27-12 start.
Kazmir's 103rd and final pitch was tagged into the gap in left-center field by Miguel Cabrera, who was thrown out trying to stretch the hit into a double to end the top of the ninth. Sanchez got the first out in the bottom half before Coco Crisp doubled to end the night for the Tigers right-hander after 111 pitches.
John Jaso greeted Nathan with a base hit off the glove of third baseman Nick Castellanos to place runners at the corners. Donaldson then pounced on the first pitch he saw from Nathan, smacking a shot that stayed just fair down the left-field line as Oakland secured at least a split of the four-game series, which concludes Thursday afternoon.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Tigers OF Rajai Davis left in the seventh inning with a left shoulder contusion. ... Kazmir's only other complete game was July 3, 2006 vs. Boston. ... Sanchez has allowed six hits in 15 1/3 innings in two career starts at Oakland.

Company Overview
GT Solar International, Inc., through its subsidiaries (referred to collectively as "we," "us" and "our") is a global provider of polysilicon production technology, multicrystalline ingot growth systems and related photovoltaic manufacturing services for the solar industry, and sapphire growth systems and material for the LED and other specialty markets. Our customers include several of the world's largest solar companies as well as companies in the chemical industry.
On July 29, 2010, we acquired privately-held Crystal Systems, Inc., which we refer to as Crystal Systems, a crystal growth technology company that produces sapphire material used for LED applications, as well as other industrial markets.
We operate through three business segments: our polysilicon business, our photovoltaic, or PV, business and our sapphire business.
Polysilicon Business
Our polysilicon business manufactures and sells chemical vapor deposition, or CVD, reactors, used to react gases at high temperatures to produce polysilicon, the key raw material used in silicon-based solar wafers and cells, while also offerring engineering services and related equipment.
Photovoltaic Business
Our PV business manufactures and sells directional solidification, or DSS, crystallization furnaces and ancillary equipment used to cast multicrystalline silicon ingots by melting and cooling polysilicon in a precisely controlled process. These ingots are used to make photovoltaic wafers which are, in turn, used to make solar cells. Our PV business provided services related to the production of photovoltaic wafers, cells and modules, referred to as our turnkey business. During the three months ended July 3, 2010, we completed a review of our PV turnkey business and decided to no longer offer these services. This decision was based on our assessment of reduced market opportunities, as well as low gross margins compared to our other product lines. Our decision did not impact the recoverability of any tangible or intangible assets, and we did not incur any significant costs to eliminate this product offering.
Sapphire Business
Our sapphire business manufactures and sells sapphire materials and equipment. Our sapphire material is manufactured using our advanced sapphire crystal growth systems that incorporate the Heat Exchanger Method, or HEM, technology. We commercialized advanced sapphire crystal growth systems, or ASF systems and delivered the first system in May 2011 and expect to deliver additional systems throughout the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 and beyond. We have limited experience installing and operating the ASF systems in customer facilities. If the ASF system does not operate properly in our customers' facilities, we will not be able to recognize revenue from the sale of ASF systems in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, our sapphire business, and our overall business, would be materially and adversely impacted. In addition to selling ASF systems, we intend to continue production and sale of sapphire materials in selected specialty markets.
Factors Affecting the Results of Our Operations
Demand for our polysilicon and PV products and services are driven by end-user demand for solar power. Key drivers of the demand for solar power include: volatile prices of conventional energy sources; the desire for energy independence to counter perceived geopolitical supply risks surrounding fossil fuels; environmental pollution from fossil fuels and the resulting tightening of emission controls; the competitive cost of energy from alternative renewable energy sources; and government incentive programs that make solar energy more cost competitive and changing consumer preferences towards renewable energy sources.
In addition, our results of operations are affected by a number of other factors including the availability and market price of polysilicon and sapphire material, availability of raw materials, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices (particularly molybdenum, steel and graphite prices) and macroeconomic factors, including the availability of capital that may be needed by our customers, as well as political, regulatory and legal conditions in the international markets in which we conduct business, including China.
Our results of operations are affected by a number of other factors including, among other things, when we are able to recognize revenue under our PV, polysilicon and ASF system contracts. Our revenue recognition policies require us to defer revenue recognition in certain circumstances from shipped equipment and recognize revenue at a later date as more fully described under the caption "Note-2 Significant Accounting Policies-Revenue Recognition" in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Other factors affecting operations include delays in customer acceptances of our products, delays of deliveries of ordered products and our rate of progress in the fulfillment of our obligations under our contracts. A delay in deliveries or cancellations of orders would cause us to have inventories in excess of our short-term needs, and may delay our ability to recognize, or prevent us from recognizing, revenue on contracts in our order backlog.
Changes in the global capital markets have resulted in a more stringent lending environment which in turn has, at times, caused decreased spending within the industries we serve. While we have experienced increased revenue in our PV business during the three months ended July 2, 2011 as compared to the same
period in the last fiscal year, the international commercial lending environment has not stabilized and if the availability of capital or credit were to become even more limited than we are currently experiencing, we expect that the results of operations attributable to our PV business, and our other business segments, would be negatively impacted.
We are required to make a significant upfront investment in order to fill orders for our PV, polysilicon and sapphire production equipment. In the past we have had customers for our DSS furnaces and CVD reactors place orders and fail to make payments (and while we did not complete these orders, we incurred certain expenses). In an attempt to mitigate such risks, we generally require customers to make non-refundable deposits and/or provide letters of credit on most polysilicon, PV and sapphire equipment orders. These advances, however, may not cover all of the expenses we incur in preparing to fill the applicable order. In addition, we have negotiated extensions of the delivery schedules and other modifications under some of our existing contracts and we expect similar negotiations to occur in the future. When customers fail to make a deposit when due under their contracts, we may terminate, and have terminated, those contracts. When we renegotiate terms of existing contracts with our customers, such negotiations may result in a change in the timing of deliveries and other terms, which may have an impact on our results of operations as more fully described under the heading "Order Backlog."
During the early part of calendar 2010, market demand in the market for polysilicon increased and, in response, worldwide manufacturing capacity of polysilicon exhibited growth, due principally to expansion by existing manufacturers. However, as 2010 progressed, there was an excess of polysilicon manufacturing capacity and the market price for polysilicon experienced significant declines. Notwithstanding the total excess in polysilicon capacity, those market participants without the necessary cost structure will be unable to operate profitably in a lower polysilicon price environment. Accordingly, there will be an even greater focus on reducing production costs among polysilicon manufacturers. Since polysilicon production equipment is one of the principal factors that accounts for the costs of polysilicon production for manufacturers, we expect that for the immediate future there will be substantial pressure by our customers to lower the cost of equipment or they may delay or cancel their purchases of polysilicon production equipment. Even in the face of a consolidating market, we believe we are well positioned to capture a portion of the future demand for polysilicon equipment among the more limited number of manufacturers due to the higher throughput and lower power consumption, leading to greater efficiencies, generated by our reactor equipment. However, the timing of any future purchases is uncertain and it may be a significant amount of time before we see the benefits of any purchases of equipment, if it all.
Much like our other business segments, our PV business is subject to cyclicality in demand for our PV products, particularly our DSS furnace. Revenues from our PV segment grew in fiscal year 2011 as compared to the prior year in large part due to the increased demand among solar manufacturers for our DSS products. We do not, however, expect that solar manufacturers will continue to purchase PV furnaces at the same rate in fiscal 2012, and such decreased demand may continue for a longer period. We believe that, due to consolidation within the solar industry and increasing cost pressures, some of our PV customers are starting to lower capacity utilization rates and delaying expansion projects as they respond to weaker near term end market demand. Due to efficiencies offered by monocrystal silicon and advances in monocrystal silicon production technology, we may experience a longer contraction in end user demand for multicrystalline silicon solar modules than in the past. This contraction has resulted in increased pressure on the margins for our PV products. It is not possible to determine when market demand for multicrystalline solar products will return with any certainty, but initial indications are that the market will exhibit increased demand in fiscal year 2013 or the first half of fiscal year 2014 compared to the same period in 2012. We have begun to develop monocrystal silicon production technology but have not yet commercialized such equipment.
Demand for PV on-grid applications, which in turn impacts the demand for PV manufacturing equipment, has historically been dependent in part on the availability and size of government subsidies and economic incentives. The ability of governments to provide economic incentives may be significantly
impacted by the recent economic downturn. For example, Germany, which has among the world's largest PV installed base, has implemented reductions in solar feed-in tariff rates for certain solar systems and further reductions in solar feed-in tariff rates may be made in the future. Spain, which has also been a major market for PV products, reduced availability of subsidies in 2009 from 2,400 MW per year to 500 MW per year for solar projects. Conversely, adoption of feed-in-tariffs in China could positively increase market demand. It is difficult to determine the impact that a changing incentive program has on solar module demand and our customers' ability to sell solar modules in a particular geographic market. We believe decreasing costs within the solar value chain will reduce the effect of tariffs on the investment returns for solar projects. In contrast to decreasing incentives in Europe, China continues to maintain policies designed to stimulate its renewable energy sector, including solar power. The changing environment for such government incentive programs creates uncertainty for the solar industry.
We are a new entrant into the sapphire materials and sapphire equipment business. The results of our sapphire business will depend on the demand for sapphire-based materials and products, which will likely result in the majority of our revenue from the sapphire business in fiscal 2012 being attributable to the sale of ASF systems, and that the revenue from the sale of sapphire material will be comparatively smaller. However, we may not be able to recognize revenue pursuant to existing (or future) contracts to sell ASF systems in the expected time frame, in which case, a greater percentage of revenue from our sapphire business will be attributable to our materials business and beyond. We have limited experience installing and operating the ASF systems in customer facilities. During the three months ended July 2, 2011, we did not recognize revenue in connection with the sale of ASF systems. If the ASF system does not operate properly in our customers' facilities, we will not be able to recognize revenue from the sale of systems in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, our sapphire business, and our overall business, would be materially and adversely impacted. The sapphire materials industry has recently begun to show signs of slowing demand and decreased prices charged by sapphire manufacturers. We anticipate long-term demand for sapphire material will be driven, in large part, by general illumination manufacturers. However, in the short-term, the decreased demand for sapphire materials may impact demand for our supplied materials and ASF systems and the timing of which amounts attributable to supplied materials and ASF systems roll-off of backlog and into revenue.
Our quarterly results have fluctuated significantly in the past due to, among other things, the factors cited above, and we expect that our quarterly results will continue to fluctuate significantly in the future for these and other reasons.
Acquisition of Crystal Systems, Inc.
On July 29, 2010, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of privately-held Crystal Systems, a crystalline growth technology company that manufactures sapphire materials used in LED applications and other specialty markets. The purchase consideration consisted of $24.8 million in cash, approximately 5.4 million shares of our common stock valued at $30.9 million (based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of the acquisition) and a potential additional $18.7 million of contingent consideration based on the attainment of certain financial and technical targets through the period ending March 31, 2012. The fair value of the contingent consideration was $12.5 million at the date of acquisition. We recorded a purchase price adjustment resulting in a reduction in the fair value of consideration by $392 during the three months ended July 2, 2011. We have made contingent consideration payments of approximately $3.5 million through July 2, 2011.
The transaction has been accounted for as a business combination and is included in our results of operations beginning on July 29, 2010, the date of acquisition.
Order Backlog
Our order backlog primarily consists of written contractual commitments and signed purchase orders, deferred revenue (which represents equipment that has been shipped to customers but not yet recognized
as revenue) and short-term contracts or sales orders for sapphire materials. Substantially all of the contracts in our order backlog for PV, polysilicon and sapphire equipment require the customer to either post a standby letter of credit in our favor and/or make advance payment prior to shipment of equipment.
From the date of a written commitment, we generally would expect to deliver PV and sapphire equipment products over a period ranging from three to nine months and polysilicon products over a period ranging from twelve to eighteen months, however, in certain cases revenue may be recognized over longer periods. Disregarding the effect of any contract terminations or modifications, we would expect to convert approximately 44% of our July 2, 2011 order backlog into revenue during the next twelve months and approximately 56% thereafter. Although most of our orders require substantial non-refundable deposits, our order backlog as of any particular date should not be relied upon as indicative of our revenues for any future period. We began tracking our backlog as a performance measure on a consistent basis during 2007.
If a customer fails to perform its outstanding contractual obligations on a timely basis, and such failure continues after notice of breach and a cure period, we may terminate the contract. Our contracts generally do not contain cancellation provisions and in the event of a customer breach, the customer may be liable for contractual damages. During the three months ended July 2, 2011, we terminated or modified contracts resulting in a $10.4 million reduction in our order backlog (81% of the reduction was from 3 contracts). During the fiscal year ended April 2, 2011, we terminated or modified contracts resulting in a $10.7 million reduction in our order backlog (82% of the reduction was from 3 contracts). During the three months ended July 2, 2011, we did not record any revenue from terminated contracts and during the fiscal year ended April 2, 2011, we recorded revenues of $44.4 million from terminated contracts.
Although we have a reasonable expectation that most of our customers will substantially perform on their contractual obligations, we attempt to monitor those contracts that we believe to be at risk, which include contracts with customers to whom we have sent notices of breach for failure to provide letters of credit or to make payments when due. We conduct negotiations with certain customers who have requested that we extend their delivery schedules or make other contract modifications, or who have not provided letters of credit or made payments in accordance with the terms of their contracts. We engage in a certain level of these negotiations in the ordinary course. We monitor the effect, if any, that these negotiations may have on our future revenue recognition. If we cannot come to an agreement with these customers, our order backlog could be reduced. Other customers with contracts in our order backlog that are not currently under negotiation may approach us with similar requests in the future, or may fail to provide letters of credit or to make payments when due. If we cannot come to an agreement with these customers, our order backlog could be further reduced.
The table below sets forth our order backlog as of July 2, 2011 and April 2, 2011 by business segment:
July 2, 2011 April 2, 2011 % of % of Product Category Amount Backlog Amount Backlog (dollars in millions) Photovoltaic business $ 370 16 % $ 468 39 % Polysilicon business 978 43 % 537 45 % Sapphire business 952 41 % 184 16 % Total $ 2,300 100 % $ 1,189 100 %
Our order backlog attributable to our PV, polysilicon and sapphire businesses as of July 2, 2011, included deferred revenue of $395.7 million, of which $77.0 million related to our PV business, $317.2 million related to our polysilicon business and $1.5 million related to our sapphire business. Cash received in deposits related to our order backlog where deliveries have not yet occurred was $263.6 million as of July 2, 2011.
As of July 2, 2011, our order backlog consisted of contracts with 29 PV customers, 16 of which have orders of $3 million or greater, contracts with 14 polysilicon customers, 13 of which have orders of $3 million or greater and contracts with several sapphire customers, 9 of which had orders of greater than $3 million. Our PV, polysilicon and sapphire order backlog as of July 2, 2011, included $554.0 million and $460.4 million attributed to two different customers, each of which individually represents 24% and 20%, respectively, of our order backlog.
Results of Operations The following tables set forth the results of operations as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended July 2, 2011 and July 2, 2010: Three Months Ended July 2, 2011 July 3, 2010 Statement of Operations Data:* Revenue 100 % 100 % Cost of revenue 51 66 Gross profit 49 34 Research and development 5 3 Selling and marketing 3 3 General and administrative 7 8 Amortization of intangible assets - - Income from operations 34 20 Interest income - - Interest expense (1 ) - Other income (expense), net - - Income before income taxes 33 20 Provision for income taxes 10 8 Net income 23 % 12 %

Revenue. The following table sets forth total revenue for the three months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010:
Three Months Ended Business Category July 2, 2011 July 3, 2010 Change % Change (dollars in thousands) Photovoltaic business $ 198,628 $ 111,441 $ 87,187 Polysilicon business 23,885 23,725 160 Sapphire business 8,583 - 8,583 Total revenue $ 231,096 $ 135,166 $ 95,930 71 %
Revenue from our PV business increased 78% to $198.6 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 as compared to $111.4 million for the three months ended July 3, 2010. PV revenue is comprised of sales of our DSS furnaces, other equipment, services and ancillary parts and spares. The increase in revenue attributable to the PV business is primarily due to an increase in the number of DSS units on which revenue was recognized during the period offset in part by a decrease in revenue related to our
turnkey business, for which we no longer offer as an option to our customers. Revenue recognized during the three months ended July 3, 2010 from turnkey projects was $41.1 million and we did not recognize any revenue from turnkey projects in the three months ended July 2, 2011.
Revenue from our polysilicon business for the three months ended July 2, 2011 was consistent with revenue recognized in our polysilicon business for the same period in the prior year. Polysilicon revenue for the three months ended July 2, 2011 substantially relates to contracts that were in our order backlog as of April 2, 2011. Revenue in our polysilicon business is generally recognized upon acceptance of product, whether existing or new, unless acceptance is considered perfunctory. As a result, our polysilicon business tends to have a higher level of deferred revenue than our PV and sapphire businesses. Approximately 80% and 73% of our deferred revenue balance at July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively, relates to our polysilicon business.
Included in our backlog are polysilicon contracts that grant contractual rights which require revenue to be recognized ratably over the contract period. Revenue is recognized when all other elements have been delivered and other . . .

The Optimum Choice of Surround Sound Encoding Specification
The optimum choice of surround sound encoding specification with good mono and stereo compatibility is such that the best of all possible surround decoders for that system is better than the best of all possible decoders for any other system. This paper summarizes psychoacoustic theories and methods that allow the discovery of this optimum system. This "System 45 J" is described, and is an improved refinement of the BBC 'matrix H' and UMX systems.

There wasn't talk of the investigation or of how she died, just heartfelt memories shared during Samantha Ramsey's funeral Saturday morning at the First Baptist Church in Ludlow.
Ramsey, 19, was shot and killed April 26 following a confrontation with Boone County sheriff's deputy Tyler Brockman after leaving a field party in Hebron.
During Ramsey's funeral service, a slideshow of her life was projected on the wall of the church as family and friends shed tears and hugged. In the slideshow, there were childhood photos with her siblings, parents and friends, as well as images of Ramsey in her cheerleading outfit.
"She treated everyone the way they wanted to be treated with love and compassion," close family friend Eric King said during the funeral service. "She had a very loving heart, looking out for family, friends and even strangers whenever she could."
King began the first prayer by thanking God "for 19 years of Sam."
: Why KSP won't investigate Ramsey death
: Boone Co. deputy in fatal shooting feared for his life
: Footage from cruiser camera answers few questions
He spoke about how Ramsey hated to be alone and had recently asked her mom to tuck her in at night and how her mispronunciation of the name of her favorite athlete Sammy Sosa earned the nickname of "Sammy Sofa" at a very young age.
Many classmates of Ramsey, who attended Ludlow schools before graduating from Holmes High School in 2013, were attendance at the funeral.
One young woman wore a shirt that read "RIP SAM" on the front and "Justice will be served" on the back. Another shirt read "Justice will be served SAMBO."
In a statement emailed to the media earlier this week, the family's attorney Gary Franke wrote: "Samantha Ramsey's family again thanks the community for their outpouring of support and prayers. They respectfully request time to privately mourn and celebrate Samantha's life. The circumstances surrounding Samantha's brutal, needless and untimely death are being thoroughly investigated on behalf of the family, Samantha, and the community. Samantha Ramsey's family has appropriately and continuously requested prayers for all involved who are suffering from Samantha's loss.
"Be assured that Samantha's family anticipates, expects and will steadfastly seek a just resolution of all issues."
Boone County Sheriff's Department is investigating the shooting that led to her death.
