Modern Strategies for Trending Additive Depletion and Contamination Using FT-IR
The application of Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy in lubricant condition monitoring has rapidly increased. Initially, this was driven by mobile equipment operators using FT-IR spectroscopy for crankcase lubricants. In that application, FT-IR spectroscopy monitors common contaminants, breakdown products, and additive package components. However, FT-IR analysis can be applied to a much larger variety of mechanical and fluid systems, such as gear boxes, hydraulic systems, turbines, and other systems found in the manufacturing environment.
Using the analogy to metal analysis by emission spectroscopy, a wear metal spectrometer may be configured to monitor bearing wear levels from the lead readings. However, if fluid from a machine using silver alloy based components is tested, monitoring the lead emission line will not be useful in indicating bearing wear. Like wear metal analysis, the proper regions of the spectrum must be monitored to detect the fault signatures of interest.
In FT-IR based condition monitoring, both the bulk matrix and the interactions between the matrix and analyte need to be considered. An example of this is shown in Figure 1. Here three different lubricants, a synthetic ester–based lubricant, a high detergent/dispersent crankcase lubricant, and an EP (Extreme Pressure) additive gear lubricant, all spiked with 1000 PPM of water, are presented. The area highlighted in blue indicates the optimal integrated band area for measuring water contamination in each. The different measurement regions are necessary because water reacts differently in the different systems. Different reactions result in the maximal water response appearing in different locations.
An illustration of how applying a methodology developed for one system to a different system creates misleading results is presented in Figure 2. Here, water measurement trends are presented from a gearbox that is lubricated with an oil containing an extreme pressure (EP) additive. The blue line shows the response for the water in EP additive oils, and is contrasted to the red line showing the measurement optimized for water in crankcase oils. As can be seen, the "Water in EP Oil" measurement generates a strong response from a water contamination problem, while the measurement optimized for crankcase oils only shows a slight deviation from the normal trends.
Most condition monitoring laboratories running metal analysis spectroscopy are familiar with running periodic calibration standards. Running these standards is used to correct day-to-day variances in the emission characteristics of the plasma and other variances of the spectrometer. However, once a consistent and reproducible sampling method has been set up on a FT-IR, such daily calibration standards are unnecessary, as an FT-IR spectrometer is inherently self-correcting through measuring a background spectrum. This is a spectrum collected on the instrument (ideally including the sampling cell) without any sample present. Subsequent samples collected are then ratioed to this background, correcting for any variances in the source intensity or alignment effects.
As running calibration samples to correct day-to-day instrument variances is unnecessary, the original question of correlating the infrared response to a physical concentration remains. While a series of calibration standards can be prepared to generate a concentration reading instead of a simple infrared response, this can involve a significant amount of additional work for the laboratory. This entails not only preparing the calibration standards, but also documenting standard preparation, tracking standards, ensuring consistent standards quality, and so on. In addition, a proper calibration set for systems that are more complex should include not only the component of interest, but also be blended using a large set of used lubricants. This is necessary to take into account all the interactions and reactions with other components and contaminants which may be found in the fluid. Some laboratories have successfully generated such complex calibrations to predict physical properties like TAN, TBN and viscosity. However, this involves running 150 calibration samples or more, and using complex mathematical techniques such as PCR/PLS (Principle Component Regression / Partial Least Squares). Such mathematical techniques are beyond the scope of this article.
Ultimately, many laboratories are choosing to establish a simpler relationship, using a few prepared standards at or near their previously established alarm limits, and setting an alarm level based only on the infrared response. In the example figures above, an infrared reading of 100 for the Water in EP Oil correlates to a prepared water concentration of 1000 ppm. Thus, the alarm level for the "Water in EP Oil" infrared measurement would be triggered when the integrated area measurement reached 100. This example shows that an alarm would not be triggered on the absolute level, but maintenance action was still triggered based on the rate-of-change of this reading. Establishing such a relationship in a simpler manner preserves the reliability of the infrared measurements without adding in additional sources of error and headaches from standard preparation, storage, tracking, and so on.
An example showing the trend for the antiwear integrated band area is presented in Figure 4, in conjunction with the infrared water response. Note the drop in the antiwear reading at the start of this trend. This is not unexpected, as new lubricants, like new or rebuilt machines, will go through an initial "run-in" process (preferred to the phrase "break-in"). Components of new oil will undergo rapid change as they react with contaminants and breakdown products remaining in the system, and other additives adhere to metal surfaces. After this initial drop from 24 to 16 in the antiwear response, the level remained constant in next sample checked in early December. Sometime between December 4th and the next sample checked on December 22nd, an event occurred which caused the antiwear reading to drop to zero.
Examining the water response from this system immediately indicates the cause of this component loss: severe water contamination. Note that in this example, the severity of the water contamination (nearly 1%) not only adversely affects the operation of the machine, but has removed or destroyed the antiwear component. In this case, simply replacing the additive package, or completely changing the oil, would not itself correct the root cause of the loss. All factors monitored should be used in the process of diagnosing and correcting machinery and lubricant problems.

This is a very clever tie up in place here. I think the manufacturer has tapped into something really very clever and this will help to enable its success.
STUBBORN SIDEBURN is brain-child of Japanense artists, Junichi Tsuneoka, whose focal point is the distintive a style often recognized as "California Roll Stylie," the result of both a visual and conceptual fusion of Japanese pop culture and American urban culture.
With intention to experiment and explore while giving his "characters" a purpose to live and creating a world for them, Mr Junichi Tsuneoka started STBN SDBN (short for STUBBORN SIDEBURN) just last year. As he told me, his illustration is more into character design driven and it is very good at getting instant attention from the audience.
STBN SDBN tees are all hand-crafted. It's because Mr Junichi Tsuneoka designed his own neck label and sleeve tag sawn on the tee. Surprisingly, there are only make 24 shirts per design and one of them already worn by Mr Junichi Tsuneoka as he only produces T-shirt if he want to wear it himself.

Molière, an Indiana lake,
eminent domain take the prize
at 8th Annual Dean's
Scholarship Symposium
With presentations about the plagiarism of Molière, the ecosystems of
one of Indiana's deepest natural lakes and a land-taking case that perpetuates a
trend in economic development – the Manchester College Dean's Student
Scholarship Symposium showcased
phenomenal students on March 10.
The 8th annual symposium featured 21 presentations by 28
students, from senior to first-year student, from scientist to musician.
Three students emerged from the faculty-judged competition with The Jo
Young Switzer Award for Excellence in Writing and $100 each. Twenty-three were
honored for participating in the highly selective symposium and received
gift certificates to the Campus Store.
The top presenters:
Colleen Hamilton of Rockford,
Mich., "The Plagiarism and Consequent Brilliant Success of Molière"

Kan., "A Descriptive Limnological Analysis of Phosphorus Loading and
Thermal Stratification in a Temperate Dimictic Northern Indiana Natural
Hike of Syracuse, Ind., "Kelo v
City of New London: Radical Break or Reaffirmation?"
symposium is a wonderful venue to showcase the many academic talents of
our students," said Glenn R. Sharfman, vice president and dean for
academic affairs. "We have some phenomenal students who were stretched
by the event and the pride that the students, their faculty mentors and
their families took from the experience is priceless,"
Presentation topics also included an anabaptist poet, capitalism in Togo, the
Cuban Missile Crisis, baseball, an original Elizabethan farce, Kodaly
music education method, and the Christianity of Isaac Newton. Bonefish,
human rights protection, The Count of Monte Cristo, the religious
right, conflict resolution skills, salamander reproduction, stream water
quality, Josef Stalin and oppression also were discussed.
"Many of
the papers presented were at a graduate level and I cannot say enough
about the poise and sophistication of the students," said Sharfman. "It
is a real treat to watch students display such great academic depth and
have so much fun doing it."
First-year education major Colleen Hamilton, mentored by Professor
Janina P. Traxler, learned that "Molière
caricatured the French nobility, and they loved him for it." Hamilton
explored Molière's foundation in
classical and popular theatre as well as his resulting balance of humor
and intelligence, comedy and satire, classical and popular.
environmental studies major Jonathan Dutrow, mentored by Assistant
Professor Jerry E. Sweeten, collected data in five monitoring locations
in Crooked Lake, on the border of Noble and Whitley counties. Biologists
and lake residents are concerned about the long-term trophic status of

CagePotato Open Discussion: What Are the Five Best UFC Fights of 2013 So Far?
So UFC.com just released the promotion's "unofficial" picks for the best five fights of 2013 so far (how that fan fight at UFC 161 didn't make the list is anyone's guess), which can only mean that the time of great debate is upon us once again. From hottest pornstar girlfriend to favorite non-Rocky fight film of all time, the past couple of weeks have been a veritable hotbed of master-debating here at CP, so we expect you Taters to bring the same hellfire and vitriol to this list as you would any other. Let's get to the nominees…
5. Ronda Rousey vs. Liz Carmouche – UFC 157
(All photos via Getty)
How They Described It: In the first women's bout to ever take place in the UFC
Octagon, bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey and challenger Liz Carmouche made history with style. Yet despite Rousey's status as the Queen of the sport, Carmouche nearly spoiled the party when she had the champion seconds away from a submission defeat. In the end though, it was Rousey prevailing late in the first round with her trademark armbar.

Sorry for the late post and mild gap. I went to Colorado for a quick visit to come back and learn I needed Iron Infusions. When the doctor tells you that you are pale white and you have a saturation of 4% when it should be 50% it means business. With every pregnancy, every surgery comes all the year later journeys and experiences. This was a first for me. During my pregnancy with A. I never required infusions, however with B it seems my body is just giving up at times when I need it to stay strong. So I experienced 3 weeks of iron infusions and boy was that fun. Here is how they go for anyone curious about an Iron infusion during pregnancy or after Gastric Bypass.
You arrive, they verify your info. Take you to a room, you get comfy and then they medicate you. I got tylenol and benadryl. The benadryl is suppose to help with any reaction you may have. You get told there is a medication similar to an epi-pen in the med room should you have a reaction, which is extremely extremely rare. Then the fun begins, you get an IV. then you get temps, vitals etc taken every 15 minutes for the 2-4 hours your infusion goes. Expect lots of beeping and no alone time, haha. After all this is done, they start the infusion, it takes a 15 minute monitoring constantly to ensure proper flow, no reactions etc. All I can say from this journey is ask for an extra blanket because you will get chilly and prepare to be sleepy and dose between vital checks from the benadryl! But it is pain free, and actually I have been free from eating ice for several weeks, I noticed a change within 1 week and got my energy back. I was however recently told by my OB not to consider any further children without infusions prior to pregnancy and during. But that is okay with us as we are done with children!
Life has been hetic in our household otherwise, A is attempting to potty train, learning new words and getting into all the trouble in the world. This child has attitude like crazy. I always wonder why she has such a huge meltdown but I think it has to do with her limited words and becoming frustrated that Mommy just doesnt understand. I am busy in school working hard on finishing Chemistry and A&P 2 so I can apply to RN programs finally. And of course the hubby is busy with Army work.
Holidays are upon us and that also means B's arrival. My last check up indicated no contractions, no issues, and we did a blood draw for my CBC to see if my iron has improved since the infusions. I am only up 18lbs from my pre pregnancy weight and I go back next week for a membrane stripping and 38 week check up! I am eager to see what my newest little bundle of joy will look like and what personality she will have, but I am also dreading leaving A and childbirth and homework as my semester doesn't end till after she's here! Anyways, Thought I would take a moment of my night and share my infusion update news, and maybe help someone else who may be curious. Have a great week!

Hometown: Merrick, N.Y.
Major: Psychology
Minor(s): Art, Disaster Studies
- Co-President, Jam Asia
- President, Scholar's Mentorship Program Advisory Board
- Resident Assistant
- Proctor, Disability Resource Center
Internship: Orange County Office of Emergency Management
Graduate School: Mental health counseling, Hofstra University (starting fall 2014)
How did you discover New Paltz, and why did you decide it was the college for you?
It was definitely a school that was talked about a lot in my high school, with Long Island being such a good distance away. But there's something about this school. I had a really good feeling about it. I just had a gut feeling about it, and it hasn't failed me. It's a great size, I love the people, and it's a beautiful area.
Why did the size of the school appeal to you?
I had a few small classes that really catered to me. In my Crisis Intervention class, we really got to know the professor and the people in the class. In big lecture classes, you don't know anybody's name, but I knew everybody's name in this class. I knew most of their stories. It was nice, because you feel like a person, versus just another name on a roster.
Are there any particular faculty or staff members who inspired you at New Paltz?
My mentor from the Scholar's Mentorship Program really helped me figure out the skills I needed to work on so I could go into the counseling field after graduating.
I took a class with my advisor, Corwin Senko, my junior year called the Psychology of Motivation. It was such a great class, because it honed in on why I do some of the things I do, and what's the motivation behind them? What did I do when I was younger that turned into the habits I have now? Every time I'd meet with him for advising, we'd always have a fun conversation. We talked about the meaning of life once – which, we found out, was chocolate. Naturally!
Are there any particular experiences you had at New Paltz that stand out for you?
Being part of Jam Asia, which I joined my freshman year. It broke that bubble for me, of wanting to do things but always being too scared to try. Coming into college, I never thought I would model, or dance in front of people. I thought I was too awkward. But my friend brought me to a Jam Asia meeting and I ended up falling in love with it. On top of breaking out of my shell, I found a family here. The comfort, security, and caring environment that I found in Jam Asia really helped me to try new things.
How did your involvement with clubs and organizations enhance your New Paltz experience?
I definitely got a lot more involved in college than I did in high school. I started branching out. I was in a few Asian culture clubs at New Paltz, and I never really dug into my cultural background until I got here. Some of the clubs inspired me to join other clubs, and they all helped me grow into the leader I am now. I was part of clubs in high school, but I was way too scared to try a leadership position. Now I have confidence and communication skills. It really helped me develop as a person. Once I got my foot in the door of one leadership position, I got to know all the student leaders, because it's a small campus. They encouraged me to try more things and take advantage of more opportunities.

Muni-Fed Energy Selects Probe Manufacturing to Produce PRHL's Licensed Technology the E-Series and LiteOwl Lighting Controls
Muni-Fed Energy Selects Probe Manufacturing to Produce PRHL's Licensed Technology the E-Series and LiteOwl Lighting Controls
TUSTIN, CA--(Marketwired - Dec 18, 2013) - Premier Holding Corporation (OTCQB: PRHL) today announced that its patent licensee, Muni-Fed Energy has selected Probe Manufacturing of Irvine California to build its proprietary E-Series and LiteOwl products. "These exceptional energy saving devices for industrial lights will be made in America with the highest quality standards and at impressively competitive costs," said Clay Sandidge, President of Muni-Fed Energy.
Probe will begin immediately on the LiteOwl, the award winning product designed to save energy for existing streetlights, then move on to the E-Series and its 5 versions, as well as a custom build kitted unit specifically to save energy for high mast, high wattage HID lamps on poles, such as are found in ports and rail yards.
"The decision to go with Probe was an easy one," said Phil Bowman, CEO of Muni-Fed Energy. "After seeing their facility, the clientele, and their business model, there are synergies in every area of our businesses making this more than a client relationship, we truly act as partners."
Kam Mahdi, CEO of Probe Manufacturing added, "Our unique business model is perfect for these products, and bringing manufacturing back to the United States is an obvious decision that will not only benefit Muni-Fed Energy and Probe, but ultimately, their clients who will receive a top quality product at competitive prices."
"We are thrilled about this agreement," said Randall Letcavage, President and CEO of Premier. "We brought Probe to Muni-Fed Energy for their consideration, and we could not be happier that the two companies formed such a beneficial relationship. Everyone stands to benefit from it."
The E-Series technology is the perfect efficiency solution for those clients who have high-bay, or high-mast HID lights, where HID is currently the most efficient lamp on a lumens per watt basis in these applications, and a practical cost-effective alternative to LED. This technology makes these efficient lamps even more efficient at a fraction of the cost of LED. It simply connects in front of a bank of HID lamps creating serious savings without negatively effecting performance.

Luis Suarez is eager to put his World Cup biting controversy behind him and realise his dream of playing for Barcelona.

But after the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that he could return to the field to train the 27-year-old now wants to get his head down and forget his summer's transgressions.
"I'm very happy to feel like a footballer again and to be with my team-mates," Suarez told the club's official website.
"I was really looking forward to starting. The situation made me feel very uncomfortable. I'm paying for an error I committed and have apologised for, but it needs to be forgotten about.
"Now I have to think about the future, which is Barcelona, the club I dreamed about playing for."
Was CAS right to uphold Suarez's ban?
Suarez is now likely to make his Blaugrana debut against Mexican side Leon after being officially unveiled over a month after completing his £75million move from Liverpool in July.
However, he will have to wait until the weekend of October 25 to make his competitive debut - the weekend of the first Clasico of the 2014-15 Primera Division campaign against arch-rivals Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
"Now I have to wait to play again, to meet the fans and feel what it's like to play at the Nou Camp," he added.
"I'm very grateful to the club for everything they have done for me in the past few weeks and days. They have treated me very well and I'm grateful to them because I've completed a dream, which is to play for Barcelona."

1:00 amBrainChange with David Perlmutter, MD This program reveals the devastating truth about the effects of wheat, sugar, and carbohydrates on the human brain, with a 30-day plan to achieve optimum health. Renowned neurologist David Perlmutter, MD, blows the lid off a topic that's been buried in medical literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain. And not just unhealthy carbs, but even healthy ones like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and much more.
The vast majority of us don't realize that our seemingly "healthy" daily habits are silently aggravating our nervous systems and setting us up for serious brain ailments. This program shows that the fate of your brain is not in your genes. It's in the food you eat. Dr. Perlmutter, a leading international authority on nutritional medicine, has a disturbing yet empowering message: our brains are highly sensitive to certain proteins and sugars that are ubiquitous today - in our hand creams and organic ice creams, cocktails and coffees, multi-grain breads, whole fruits, and even brand name pharmaceuticals.
Dr. Perlmutter shows us how to prevent, treat, and reverse a wide array of brain-related disorders by eliminating specific foods from our diets and making smarter lifestyle choices. His new book, Grain Brain, is the first book of its kind to explore the insidious role our highly touted low-fat, high-carb diets play in a host of neurological conditions.
Dr. Perlmutter is both a board-certified neurologist and a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition. He also runs his own private practice, The Perlmutter Health Center, in Naples, Florida. duration 1:27:27 STEREO TVG

11:00 pmMoyers & Company [#245H] The Path of Positive Resistance * Between them, doctors Jill Stein and Margaret Flowers have been arrested 9 times. In the face of injustice and government by the 1%, rather than look the other way and stick to practicing medicine they chose a different approach.
At first they took separate paths. Margaret Flowers fought for single payer health insurance. She works for the organization Physicians for a National Health Program and is a contributor to PopularResistance.org, a website advocating nonviolent direct action against injustice. Jill Stein advocated for campaign finance reform in her home state of Massachusetts, working in 1998 with others in her community to pass the Clean Election Law. She co-founded the Massachusetts Coalition for Healthy Communities in 2003 and represented the Green-Rainbow Party for governor in 2002, for State Representative in 2004 and for Secretary of State in 2006. She was the Green Party candidate for president in 2012.
Now Stein and Flowers are both members of the Green Shadow Cabinet, a group of 100 prominent men and women offering alternative policy and speaking out in an organized voice against a dysfunctional government. Stein serves as president and Flowers as secretary of health. Each fights against political corruption and a host of grievances that that have led many people to cynicism and despair.
This week, Bill Moyers speaks with Stein and Flowers about their personal journeys, what they have learned about our political system along the way and why they continue to fight the good fight. "Once you start speaking truth to power and standing up for the right things, it's very empowering," Margaret Flowers tells Bill. "After the Occupy movement disbanded and people kept saying, 'Oh, it's gone, it went away,' it didn't go away. It inspired others to stand up for their rights. So we see low wage workers all around the country standing up. And now states that are starting to raise their minimum wages. We see anti-foreclosure activists fighting back and people being able to stay in their homes. We see communities creating democratic economic institutions so that they can lift themselves out of poverty. These things are happening. They're not covered in the mass media.

A Conversation With UC President Janet Napolitano
In her first address to the University of California Board of Regents this week, UC President Janet Napolitano proposed freezing tuition and other reforms. The former U.S. Department of Homeland Security secretary and governor of Arizona sits down with Scott Shafer to discuss her vision for the 10-campus system and responds to criticism of her record on immigration.
Further Reporting: For Napolitano, UC Could Be a Stepping Stone to California Politics
Examining California's Criminal Justice Experiment
Two years into California's massive criminal justice experiment dubbed "realignment," a new Stanford University study examines how the reforms are playing out across the state's 58 counties, many with different resources and distinct approaches. Since realignment went into effect, more than 100,000 prisoners have been diverted from state prisons to county jails or probation. While some law enforcement agencies report rising crime rates and a decline in public safety, other agencies say they have renewed their emphasis on rehabilitation.

Did you know that essentially every time Sherrod Brown has the opportunity to vote in favor of preserving innocent human life, he chooses to do just the opposite?

Worse yet, he consistently … [Read more...]

FOXBORO, Mass. -- The Washington Redskins made few mistakes during yesterday's rookie scrimmage with the New England Patriots. But one oversight -- neglecting to bring a kicker to Foxboro Stadium -- cost them in a 30-24 defeat.
Cary Conklin threw four touchdown passes, and the Redskins' defense held the Patriots to only two late touchdowns. Yet, the rules of the scrimmage allowed field goals to be attempted virtually at the discretion of the offensive team, and Jason Staurovsky kicked six field goals for the Patriots. Since the teams alternated 10-play drives from midfield, field-goal position was reached easily.
Nor did the score appear to be of concern to the Redskins.
"We got a lot of snaps for the young guys," Redskins coach Joe Gibbs said. "We got them a lot of individual work, got to watch them in a lot of one-on-one situations."

Advocating for Rights of Mother Earth In Western Kenya
In the small village of Rongo in Western Kenya, George Calleb is educating himself and his community on what Rights of Nature can mean for his country.
He and his colleagues look at the rich green fields and the lush green vegetation that feeds the village, animals, and wildlife around them.
They are asking "How do we ensure that the lush green environment stays healthy and continues to support our community?"
Extensive sand mining in the area is causing stark devastation of the River Nymador.
The effect of the sand mining raises timely questions about the health of the river and the impact to the overall ecosystem of the area.
The destruction of the river bed threatens the long term sustainability of bird and wildlife habitats. The impact is not just to a localized area of the river but the river's overall ability to continue to flow, to exist, to regenerate its life cycles, and to provide sustainable water sources for the people, forests, wildlife and other inhabitants of the area.
Rights of Nature acknowledges that nature in all its life forms has the right to exist, persist, maintain and regenerate its vital cycles. Join our colleagues advocating for the recognition of Rights of Mother Earth in Kenya.

Israeli military commanders are confident their multi-arrayed anti-ballistic missile defense system can shoot down any nuclear-armed Iranian missiles aimed at their country.
Uzi Rubin, a defense consultant to the Israel Defense Forces responsible for overseeing the first Arrow anti-ballistic missile system, told WorldNetDaily in an interview published Friday that Israel was in a strong position defend itself from such an attack.
'I think we can shoot down missiles attacking Israel. There are strategic implications. The nuclear threat is not about the chance of one single missile that can sneak through. It`s about Israel`s retaliatory efforts. They (Iran) have a slight chance or no chance at all of getting through. They will get a second strike from Israel, and that`s what they are concerned about,' he said.
Rubin told WND that Israel`s survivable second-strike capability, carried on nuclear-armed cruise missiles deployed on a mini-fleet of three German-built diesel-powered submarines or U-boats, was the country`s most effective deterrent. 'Iran could not guarantee their people that they wouldn`t be wiped out by retaliation. That is the deterrence,' he said.

Water is a useful tool in this context because it relates to the way in which people absorb energy, both negative and positive. Every action in a person's life, as well as their interactions with others, has an effect on their energy and all these pieces combine to determine one's overall mood and how content they are. Negative energies have been linked to a range of mood disorders such as anxiety and depression that can quickly have a destructive impact on day to day life, so it is important to investigate and resolve the source of the negativity as quickly as possible. It can sometimes be difficult to identify this source so it can be useful to have an arsenal of tricks to locate where the negative energy is emulating from. Vinegar, salt, and water are required as well as a large cup to mix them in. In equal parts (so 1/3 of the cup each) add the ingredients to the cup and mix well using a metal spoon or something similar. If one area of the building had been particularly eery or suspicious then, the glass should be placed in this location and covered with glad wrap. After leaving for at least 24 hours, it can be inspected to see if any signs of negative energy have been recorded. Marks on the outside of the glass or changes to the appearance of the liquid are examples, but any change to the glass or liquid is a good indicator that negative energy is emitting from nearby.

Baseball Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend
Hey batter, batter, batter: These bracelets, earrings, and pendants are truly in a league of their own. Made of wood or plastic material salvaged from the seats of famous ballparks, including Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, and Wrigley Field/Tiger Stadium, the sterling-silver accessories are a subtle and fun way of showing that ol' team spirit, while keeping junk out of the landfill. (Now, if they were made with recycled findings, as well, then we'd have a home run.)
Each item is engraved with the stadium's name on the back and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Prices start at $80. ::UncommonGoods


text: Preparing and Using Visual Aids 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 224 During the speech, keep the screen above the participants' heads. Be sure it's in full view of the participants. Make sure you're not blocking anyone's view when presenting. Darken the room appropriately by blocking out sunshine and dimming nearby lights. Turn off the screen between slides if you plan to talk for more than a couple minutes. Keep in mind that no audience member should be farther from the screen than six times the width of the image. Talk to the audience, not to the screen. Use a pointer to emphasize points, but don't use it as a crutch or wave it wildly. Photographs Photographs can be visually stunning and can provide exquisite details and descriptions. As a bo- nus, they're also relatively inexpensive to produce. Make sure that the pictures you use are of high quality. Consider cropping (removing) extraneous details that would distract from your point. Your photo-finisher can do this easily. Mount your pictures on sturdy boards to make them easier to display. Be sure the photographs are large enough to be seen clearly from all parts of the auditorium. Display the photographs on an easel for maximum impact. Slides As with photographs, use only high-quality slides. If you're a skilled photographer, take the slides yourself. If you have any doubts, buy the slides you need or have someone skilled prepare the slides for you. It's worth the time and trouble: Amateurish slides look tacky and can harm your presentation. Remember that slides require a darkened room. Be sure that you can adequately darken the room before you give your speech. Slide experts maintain that the room must be completely dark to achieve the maximum effect. Obviously, this makes it difficult--if not impossible--for people to take notes. It also moves the focus from the speaker to the slides, which is not your desired aim. I rec- ommend that you merely dim the lights, which will work fine for your purposes. Before the speech, run through your slide show to make sure the projector works and that the slides are in the proper order. Tape down the projector cord so no one trips over it. And be classy: Use a screen instead of the wall. Videotapes Videotapes provide dramatic, effective visual images and are very easy to use, which is why they're popular with audiences and speakers alike. As with films, though, stick with prepared videotapes unless you're skilled with a video camera. Be sure to check the videotape before you use it to make sure that it's in good shape. Also be sure that the TV screen can be seen easily by all members of the audience--even those in the back rows. Read over these additional guidelines for using videotapes: 1. 2. 3. 4. Before the presentation, be sure the videotape is rewound and at the starting point. Check to make sure that the playback machine and the monitor are playing properly. Check this before the session so that you may replace the machine if it is not working properly. Check the audio level and contrast. The lights should be dimmed but not off.

C'MON HOLLYWOOD: Not all games are potential movies!
...not all games are potential movies!
by J.A. Hamilton
Now video game flicks had a rough start with stuff like SUPER MARIO BROTHERS, but then again, Mario was all the rage at the time and anyone with half a brain saw that one coming a mile away. I�m not saying that the RESIDENT EVIL franchise went in the direction I�d have preferred, but zombies are another money maker and a gun wielding, ass kicking, super hot Milla Jovovich is a hard piece of work to argue with. Even the PRINCE OF PERSIA flick looks exciting, and though not a game I personally was into, the raw mechanics and storyline are something of interest to anyone who enjoys a �PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN� type film (I use this comparison mainly due to Bruckheimer�s involvement) even if it is backed by Disney.
The first FF movie was a wash, but they made up for it with ADVENT CHILDREN.
SPACE INVADERS is far from the first time Hollywood�s danced to this tune. The Rock was attached to a SPY HUNTER movie for what felt like an eternity, but thank God it never saw the light of day. SPY HUNTER is another game that had zero storyline, you controlled a car that shot bullets out of the front as you cascaded down the road avoiding oil traps, holes, other cars and so on. Personally I think this game came along riding the coattails of KNIGHT RIDER�s fame, which back then you could get away with, but nowadays we need a little more substance to keep us interested. And then there�s Vin Diesel who�s trying to put together another mediocre car game flick called WHEELMAN. Hopefully that too will suffer the same fate as SPY HUNTER.
Nice guns Milla, nice guns.
Why Hollywood is so focused on mediocrity when they could have great films come from titles like METAL GEAR and even CASTLEVANIA (Indy shouldn�t be the only whip wielding hero out there). Sure, METAL GEAR would be like Jason Bourne on steroids, but that�s a good thing as far as I�m concerned! Give us WARCRAFT, STARCRAFT or DIABLO, and though I�m not much for the game itself, I would have loved to see what Neill Blomkamp�s HALO flick would have brought to the table. And it�s not just the old games, Hollywood scrambled to get hold of the rights to make this year�s DARKSIDERS into a film, so with old and new ideas still streaming in by the boatload, why compound sins of the past by taking several embarrassing steps backward?
This almost happened folks. Be afraid, be very afraid.
With all the great games out there, I�m also mortified by the idea of rebooting some of the video game franchises we�ve seen like RESIDENT EVIL, TOMB RAIDER and even MORTAL KOMBAT (thought I�m trying to envision a harder, bloodier MK which I would be overwhelmingly happy to see). So when you add to that bullshit like SPACE INVADERS, SPY HUNTER, WHEELMAN (and the list goes on), I find myself frustrated and very angry. I�d rather see another Rock led DOOM movie before any of those. Hell, HITMAN was good and even SILENT HILL wasn�t too bad. Either way, it should be fairly obvious what choices are indeed poor ones, and which titles are worth gambling on. Wake the hell up Hollywood, because we�re getting tired of you pissing on games we know and love in the name of a quick buck.
I haven't given up hope on this project yet.
|Extra Tidbit:
|Now something I'd really like to see is a well made, big budget LEGEND OF ZELDA movie.

New White Paper: Transforming pay-TV with hybrid IPTV/OTT security solutions
Transforming pay-TV with hybrid IPTV/OTT security solutions
As the IPTV market grows and operators contemplate introducing additional offerings, like OTT, multiscreen, and time-shift TV, having a flexible, cost-efficient, and scalable content security approach becomes ever more critical.
Given the variety of distribution networks, device types, and content security requirements that are involved with delivering a premium television experience, operators need a solution that will speed up time to market, not slow it down.
This whitepaper identifies the key capabilities that IPTV service providers should look for in a content security solution to ensure secure distribution of broadcast television content to managed connected devices.

"80% of websites are in breach of the law. Is yours one of them?"
Web Standards Design
At Etre, we're religious about web standards design and accessibility. But we're practical not purist. We won't confuse you with XHTML, CSS, Transitional DTDs and the like (unless you really want us to!). We'll simply develop a design that looks and works perfectly in all the browsers you need it to.
The Benefits
Improved Page Load Times
Spaghetti code, nested tables and outdated markup can triple the bandwidth required for even the simplest of websites. This means that users are forced to wait longer for your pages to load - increasing the chance that they'll bailout before they've even seen your logo.
Improved Bandwidth Usage
Operating costs are inflated as you pay your hosting company to serve one meaty 60K page, when they could be serving three streamlined 20K pages instead. Hard numbers are hard to come by, but in general if a site reduces its page weight by 35%, it reduces its bandwidth costs by the same amount. An organisation spending £80,000 a year would save £28,000 a year.
Do you create a new version of your site every time a new browser or device is released? Designing and building with web standards lowers production and maintenance costs. Make design changes in hours, not weeks.
Forwards Compatibility
When designed and built the right way, any document that is published on the web can work across multiple browsers, platforms and devices.
Backwards Compatibility
Because standards are inclusive by nature, standards-based design accommodates people who use older browsers and devices. Even those that are yet to be built or even imagined!
Comply with accessibility laws and guidelines without sacrificing beauty, performance and sophistication.
Support for Non-Traditional Devices
Adhering to standards allows organizations to accommodate a variety of non-traditional browsing devices - from PDAs and mobile phones to Web TV and Videogame Consoles to Braille and Screen-readers.
Repurpose Documents
Separating style from structure and behaviour facilitates the repurposing of web documents. Need that HTML file in PDF, CSV or Text format? No problem.
What We Do
We'll begin by auditing your existing website against the Web Standards (W3C) guidelines. This tells us exactly what needs to be done. We'll also work with you to understand business objectives, common user tasks, and technical constraints. This ensures that our page designs can be implemented with maximum impact.
Design and Implementation
First we design and build your page templates. Then, we test them across all mainstream browsers and platforms: Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, AOL, Opera, Safari and Mozilla - on both Mac and PC. We also test with popular assistive technologies including text-only browsers like Lynx and screen-readers like JAWS and IBM Homepage Reader. This ensures maximum standards compliance and proves that our new designs will work in whatever environment you need them too. When complete, we'll work with your tech team to get them integrated.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I do this?
Before you buy new servers / pay for more bandwidth. If your pages are large in size, you could probably save a ton of bandwidth by designing for standards-compliance. We recently reduced a Financial Services site to 1/8 of its original size!
If you are spending money every time a new browser version is released. Is your site "best viewed in Internet Explorer?" Are you maintaining multiple versions of your site to cope with the needs of different browsers? It's time you upgraded. A standards-compliant design will look good in all future browsers, on Mac or PC.
If changing the colours and fonts used across your site would mean updating every page. Web standards design involves centralising design control. Fonts, colours and layout devices are specified in one place only. This means that one change affects every page in the site. No more search and replace.
If your pages take more than 8 seconds to load. Slow response times are the most common complaint of Internet users. After waiting past a certain attention threshold, users bailout to look for a faster site. This threshold is around 8 seconds. Web standards design can often halve the size of webpages, meaning faster loading times.
But will my site still work in older browsers?
We can create an accessible design that works with any browser - old or new. We'll work with you to understand who's using your site and then select the correct tools for the job.
I can't afford a large redesign just yet, are there any tweaks I can make to tie me over?
We advocate that pages are laid out with Cascading Stylesheets (CSS) instead of HTML tables wherever possible. But we can patch-up your table-based designs to meet basic levels of standards-compliance and accessibility - until you're ready for a wider redesign.
Aren't these cutting-edge techniques? Sounds risky to me
There's really nothing to be scared of. The tried and tested techniques of old had their place when standards were in their infancy and poorly-supported by mainstream browsers. But those days are gone now. Now that modern browsers are solid enough we can safely discard outdated methods, work smarter, and satisfy more users.
