Ammeters and voltmeters, except electrostatic voltmeters, operate on the same principle. The ammeters carry the current to be measured of a definite fraction of it and this current or its definite fraction produces the deflecting torque whereas voltmeter carries the current proportional to the voltage to be measured, which produces the deflecting torque.
Ammeter, which is connected in series with the circuit carrying the current under measurement, must be of very low resistance so that the voltage drop across the ammeter and power absorbed from the circuit are as low as possible.
Voltmeter, which is connected in parallel with the circuit across which the voltage is to be measured, must be of very high resistance so that the current flowing through the voltmeter, and the power absorbed from the circuit are minimum possible.
Apparently it is, therefore, impracticable in most of the cases, and dangerous in some, for an instrument manufactured as a voltmeter to be employed as an ammeter, or alternatively to use an ammeter as a voltmeter. The low resistance winding of an ammeter, will suffer serious damage if connected directly across a high voltage source (i.e. more than a fraction of volt), and the high resistance winding of the voltmeter will prevent all but the smallest current flowing and therefore would normally be quite unsuitable to be used as an ammeter, except of course in the special case where it is required to read only very small currents.
However, an ammeter of low range may be used as a voltmeter by connecting a high resistance in series with it provided the current through the series combination is within the range of the ammeter when connected across the voltage to be measured.

Many of us use smartphones just to make use of WhatsApp. The craze and simplicity of this app are such. It makes sharing of files easy and quick, be it videos or music or for that matter anything. You can not only use this app for these two alone there are many other things which you can do using this wonderful user-friendly app. But you should know how to use WhatsApp these features. Here are some other features which you don't know and which you can use to make WhatsApp more effective.
In case you are using 1GB data plan then every MB counts. So needed precautions should be taken while sending picture messages. Go to settings and click on chat settings and select auto download option and adjust the settings. You should set manual download so that the pictures don't get downloaded automatically. This will not run your data soon.
Conversation shortcuts:
If you have the habit of chatting with your friends regularly then you should be aware of some short cut features present in it. You can make appear these shortcuts appear on home screen directly. When you do this you need not open and close WhatsApp every time. If you wish to create a shortcut, tap on group list or individual chat and hold it. When you hold another window will popup. You will find ''add conversation shortcut'' option, just click on it and you will get chat question and that's it your shortcut is created. But this is available only for android users.
Find out the location:
You can as well know the location of your friends who are sending you messages. But tracing out the location is only possible if the location is GPS based.
Mute the group chats:
All of us will definitely be in two or three groups at a single time. In general, WhatsApp will allow 50 participants for a group conversation. When you have 50 members then getting messages in leaps and bounds is common. As a result, the number of unread messages will keep on increasing. To stop this hassle you can keep the offending group chat in mute. Now which group to keep in mute is your wish. You can keep the group in mute for 8 months, a week or one month or for that matter a year and un-mute it when you wish to.
Aren't they useful features, try using WhatsApp on phone and it will be more fun.

More than seven million women in the United States currently have COPD, and millions more have symptoms but have yet to be diagnosed. The number of deaths among women from COPD has more than quadrupled since 1980, and since 2000 the disease has claimed the lives of more women than men in this country each year. In Missouri 220,190 women currently have COPD, which is 9.2 percent of Missouri's population.
"These numbers may also reflect in part, a correction of gender bias in the diagnosis of COPD," said Steven Brown, MD, FCCP. "Studies have demonstrated a tendency to diagnosis women with 'asthma' and men with 'COPD' in identical clinical situations."
COPD is a progressive lung disease with no known cure that slowly robs its sufferers of the ability to draw life-sustaining breath. Only heart disease and cancer kill more Americans than COPD does. Smoking is the primary cause of COPD, but there are other important causes such as air pollution.
"Taking Her Breath Away: The Rise of COPD in Women," identifies an interplay of risk-factor exposures, biological susceptibility and sociocultural factors contributing to COPD's disproportionate burden on women.
"COPD has become a major women's health issue, on par with heart disease, breast and ovarian cancer," Brown said. "The good news is that COPD can be detected quite easily with a few questions, a brief examination, and a painless simple test, called spirometry."
Foremost, the rise of COPD in women is closely tied to the success of tobacco industry marketing. Cigarette smoking was rare among women in the early 20th century, but started increasing in earnest in the late 1960s after the tobacco industry began aggressively targeting its deadly products specifically to women. While nationwide anti-tobacco campaigns and policy changes have successfully decreased smoking rates for both women and men in the recent past, the tobacco industry's success in addicting women smokers long ago is still resulting in new cases of COPD and other tobacco-related illness in those women as they have aged.
Other key findings include:
- Since COPD has historically been thought of as a "man's disease," women are underdiagnosed and undertreated for COPD.
- Women are more vulnerable than men to lung damage from cigarette smoke and other pollutants.
- Women are especially more vulnerable to COPD before the age of 65.
- Women with COPD have more frequent disease flare-ups—a sudden worsening of COPD symptoms that is often caused by a cold or other lung infection.
- Effective treatment of COPD is complicated, and women don't always get the kind of care that meets their needs.
- The quality of life for women with COPD is impaired at an earlier age, and is worse overall than that of men with similar severity of disease.
The American Lung Association calls on government agencies, the research and funding community, insurers and health systems, employers, clinicians, women and their families to take steps now to address this deadly disease. These steps are detailed in the full report, and include the strengthening of the public health response to COPD including the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) creating and supporting a comprehensive COPD program similar to what is already in place for other major public health problems; increased investment in gender-specific COPD research; expanded efforts to protect everyone from harmful exposures that cause COPD such as cigarette smoke and outdoor air pollution; and implementation of health care systems changes to improve the timeliness and quality of COPD care.

"I cannot find a cute and not garish diaper bag, so I've improvised with a big black Prada nylon tote. I traveled with another black Prada nylon bag on Semester at Sea and those things are indestructible and SO easy to clean. Anyways, I am hoping to find some sort of organizer to set inside it to keep all the junk sorted." — Whitney
So I have two questions for you:
- Who makes a cute diaper bag? This will help G and many other moms in the long run.
- Who makes a good purse organizer?
Any ideas?

List of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees - The Good, The Bad and The Questionable?
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, a man made landmark where music Icons are celebrated, adored, and worshiped by star struck fans from every continent on the planet. A multi-national time capsule containing what a select few, fortunate, controlling individuals perceive and present as relevant artifacts and memorable remnants for all future generations to peruse. A place to admire our idols in quiet reminiscence and remember the creators and innovators of this peacefully rebellious music genre who feverishly blazed a scorching hot audio trail unto the very sacred halls of this monument by leaving all who would accept this generous gift, an inheritance of extraordinary musical works. We must assume an "Exemplary" or "Exceptional" or even "Paranormal" threshold of achievement was a pre-requisite apparently contained within the original concept, lofty criteria rightfully put into place for potential inductees to attain prior to receiving consideration for an admission ticket leading to entrance.
A brief history is certainly in order, but then on to comments, opinions, and what I deem to be justified constructive criticisms regarding this ever expanding institution. You may agree, disagree, or maintain a neutral position with regard to my educated observations, but I, as others in the business have articulated, are of the opinion that certain critical aspects of this hall need to be addressed by the general public and those who have a deep seated interest, to hopefully avert the inevitable, the denigration of integrity to the point of a non-salvageable state. This scrutiny may indeed seem insignificant to the casual observer at first fleeting glance, however, I can't think of another medium which influences our younger generation in a more demonstrably permanent fashion than music, especially Rock and Roll music and her continuously synthesized branches of delectable derivatives. Therefore, let's begin.
Created April 20, 1983 and now located in Cleveland Ohio on the shore of Lake Eerie, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was conceived and built as a monument to music artists, producers, and others in the field who donated their insignificantly small, or overbearingly large contribution which either influenced or forged a new musical path through imagination and or vision.
The physical location was not chosen solely by the developers, a common outcome in the case of most ventures of this nature, but rather through a tri-fecta of favorable and fortuitous aspects which all conveniently came together to make this docile domain of Rock & Roll music legend possible. The jackpot included civic leaders in Cleveland presenting a preliminary plan and offer of $65 million in public investment for actual construction costs, the delivery of a petition signed by 600,000 music enthusiasts who had preferred the city of Cleveland over another alternative candidate Memphis, and the final element which anointed and sealed Cleveland's fate as the first and only sacred venue for the R & R's Hall of Fame, was the result of a rather large poll conducted by USA Today in which revealed public sentiment overwhelmingly favored Cleveland over all other candidates by a healthy 100,000 votes.
Some in the business will argue that radio personalities such as Alan Freed, a well known Disc Jockey in the area who was credited with coining the phrase "Rock and Roll", and who also lobbied aggressively for the Cleveland area, was unquestionably another deciding factor. In addition, Cleveland, which was apparently the sole venue for the first ever rock and roll concert, may have been another deal sealing factor at play. I personally believe the drafting and subsequent waving around of such a sizable check was the true deciding factor, but conversely, we really can't discount the raw power of effective lobbying especially when you have thousands of loyal radio listeners at the ready to advocate a cause. In any event, everything was soon in place. The financing, the petition, and public support as expressed via the public poll, and of course the rest is history as it relates to the how and when this particular location was "Inducted" as exclusive venue.
The GOOD
In this compact segment, I will offer an opinion pertaining to the specific artists whom I feel are deserving in one way or another to adorn the sacred rock n roll walls of the Hall of Fame. This is my personal, well thought out expert opinion, an opinion which will emanate primarily from a lifelong history of music involvement, which involved performing live on stage with various underground, or high profile bands and artists while playing a variety of different old school and cutting edge styles. I've personally performed on both the right and left coast of the U.S., and of course this is not sole justification for crowning me undisputed "King" of music knowledge, for this is merely my personal perspective as it relates to the those who I feel have significantly impacted rock and roll music, who have rightfully earned the accolade, and therefore deserve induction. Here's my list of distinguished honorees. They are annotated by the year in which they were inducted.

The BAD?
First of all, to make sure we are all performing from the same page of music pertaining to the following vernacular, "Bad" means "Bad" not "Good Bad". This category should absolutely be characterized as self explanatory. It's simply my opinion as it relates to whom I believe are the worst artists ever to be inducted. Individual or solo artists or groups who absolutely do not belong in the same galaxy let alone the same pedestal or building as the aforementioned maestros of their craft. It's inconceivable to me and others I converse with regularly how certain sub-standard, or obviously mal-talented artists actually found their way into such a prestigious and elite, negligibly small group of what should be designated as the best of the best.
The criteria or "Bar of Excellence" required to be reached prior to gracing this venue with your presence should be exceedingly far above the average or norm, it should be set at nose bleed levels. Just as the Baseball Hall of Fame inducts only those players who have achieved a certain lofty threshold of accomplishment, I believe the same high standards should be met or exceeded by rock and roll artists. And yes, I do know 'It's only Rock n' Roll', but I like it, love it, and monitor it closely as this genre of music is one of the most influential to our children and adults alike. Unfortunately, if we set the bar of achievement for induction in the basement at 'Mediocre' or 'In the right place at the right time', what kind of message does this send to impressionable kids? You don't have to strive for excellence to be acknowledged as the best, it's acceptable to be mediocre and hope for the best?
So enough said. Here's my controversial list of artists whom I believe absolutely do not belong in the same building as the true greats. Who here amongst us honestly believes ABBA, as entertaining as they can be, should actually be ranked right up there with legitimate inductees such as The Beatles, or Chuck Berry, or even Bob Dylan? Do any of the following artist's body of work really stack up to all the genuinely great artists listed above in the previous paragraph? You be the judge. I would be very interested in hearing your feedback if indeed you have a dissenting opinion.
- 2000 - The Lovin' Spoonful
- 2001 - Steely Dan
The QUESTIONABLE?
Finally, we have the last category of inductees, which once again, should be self explanatory, "The Questionable", those artists who in my opinion are performing an imaginary balancing act on the invisible border line somewhere between legitimate & illegitimate inductee. My first nomination for this illustrious, quasi-climatic award is Van Halen. Yes of course, I do realize Eddie Van Halen is a superbly gifted guitarist and innovator who had the pre-meditated audacious intuition to developed a unique style all unto his own. And yes, I understand to this very day students are working tirelessly and in some cases excruciatingly tediously, to emulate this lightning fast guitar virtuoso, but then again, Steve Vai, who in my opinion is heads and shoulders above Mr. Van Halen with regard to actual talent, has yet to garner a first look for induction consideration.
Van Halen as a collective group, did indeed produce two phenomenal, cutting edge albums but do they honestly deserve to be in the same prestigious venue as the Beatles? Or the Rolling Stones? Or Chuck Berry? Or even Elvis? With little effort, I think you could swiftly ascertain my explicit thoughts on this. And then we have Blondie, a new wave group fronted by the no more than adequate vocal talents of Debra Harry. Sure, this band of wavers were embedded within the fabric of a cutting edge new wave movement but I certainly don't think they were in the same league as The Clash or The Stooges, nor to my knowledge did they produce as many substantive songs. In conclusion, the remainder of the list speaks for itself and just to reiterate, if you have a different opinion regarding any or all of my observations, please let me know. I would certainly like to hear from you.

I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but I still believe Styx deserves to be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. They were the first band in the history of music to have four consecutive multi-platinum albums, and they continue to sell out arenas across the United States. Granted, I'm a bit bias because they happen to be one of my favorite Classic Rock/80s Rock band. But anyway, great hub!
Putting the Kinks as questionable is laughable. "All Day and All Night", "Til the End of the Day", "You Really Got Me" and so many other hard rockers defined a generation and inspired heavy metal. You can't get much more rock and roll than those songs.
Hi Alternative Prime, I really liked your hub - it's very informative and interesting!
As I was reading it, I was a bit surprised to see The Kinks in 'questionable' instead of 'good'(& then subsequently saw your comment debating The Kinks). Of course, an argument can be made both ways, but on the pro-Kinks side I would have to say that their songs *are* rock-n-roll *and* their lyrics deal with some pretty serious social commentary (usually satirical) even if their 'catchy' tunes seem non-serious at first glance. I'm thinking of songs like 'Victoria' (about Queen Victoria, the monarchy & British Empire)and 'Lola' (about gender issues), to name just a few.
Anyhow, I really liked your hub & I learned a lot about the history of the rock-n-roll hall of fame. Thanks for a great hub. VOTE UP!!
I lived in Cleveland when the Rock and Roll Hall of fame was just an idea. There was a lot of hype surrounding it and the local radio stations lobbied hard to get it especially WMMS-The Buzzard!!
You did a great job researching this article and I enjoyed reading it. I definitely agree that Steely Dan and R.E.M. should stay in the Bad section, but I would have ranked ABBA and The Loving Spoonful as Questionable.
As far as I'm concerned no groups or singers came close to the Beatles or Elvis. They were definitely in a league of their own.
I would vote for Blondie. There's just something about her and her music. Nice Hub!

How to start an eBay store? First of all, you don't need an ebay store to sell on ebay. Just selling your old household items, or well-kept used clothing can easily get you started with eBay selling. However, if you want to treat eBay selling as a business, you really need to dig into the know-hows of opening an eBay Store successfully.
Find your products and suppliers
To start an eBay Store, firstly you need to find the products you want to sell. You can sort out 10 to 20 wholesale products initially. Shopping around to find the best supplier/wholesalers/dropshippers that can provide with you the best product options and variety. If you know the products that could be very helpful, but it is not a requirement for choosing your products.
Be Competitive
Initial stage is always the hardest for starting an eBay store, because you still don't have any loyalty, positive customer reviews and valuable experience and knowledge to back you up. Your store needs to have some different features to attract your first customers.
If your products are also marketed by other stores, your price should be lower than others. But you have to make sure with the lower price, you still can make enough profit. You can increase your price later when you have enough positive customer reviews or have been successfully in the business for a while. You should then have already found your unique features to get your loyal customers instead of using attractive price alone.
However, if after reducing the price, you found out that there is no room left for your margin, you can choose to package your products differently from other stores to meet some customers' needs. For example, you can sell a dozen instead of one or a pair. You can bundle your related products in colors or in sizes. The point here is to figure out some special packages that you find market may be in demand.
Do enough research and it won't be a waste of time
Since you still don't have enough experience in your initial stage, you can learn from others. First check how saturated the market is. If other stores own a lot of the same products in stock, it might be an alert for you. Further check how many have been sold recently. If it is just a mere of 5 or 10, it might be the time for you to back out of this product. If even worse, this products haven't been sold by any stores for a while, don't hesitate, run away from this product.
Doing enough market research before any full commitment to a product is time-consuming but very necessary. This is a great way to learn others' mistakes and avoid hot competition.

More dos and don'ts when start an eBay store
- Only use great pictures for your eBay store. One Picture is worth a thousand words.
- Check your spellings. Mistakes will make you look less professional. It is not very rare to see misspellings on eBay, make sure your eBay store is not one of those.
- Using the right keywords to drive customers to your eBay store. Using keywords in your title bar and description box.
- Choose the right category for your products. You can check on your competitors to see what categories they are using and decide which is the best choice for you.
- Giving out only precise description of your product, make sure to point out any defects to let your customers know before their buying decision. Hopefully you could supply photos to detail the defects.
- Get positive customer reviews from your customers. Your great reputation will build up a strong foundation for your eBay store.
- Keep a timely record of all your sales. In case you are contacted for late shipping or lost items, you can show your customers proof of when you ship out the item.
- Always leave prompt good feedbacks to your customers.

The Alphabetical Bible
by Walker Moore
Founder & President of AweStar Ministries
For decades Walker Moore has trained and led thousands of teens on international missions trips, thus changing their lives as disciples and changing the eternities for others who became disciples as a result. Walker is gifted by God in preaching and leadership. Having spoken at state Baptist conventions, local associations, major churches and missions conferences across the SBC, he remains an influential voice for missions among pastors, church staff and members, and teens.

I am thinking about designing a new study Bible. I see these popular Bibles in bookstores: men's study Bibles, women's study Bibles, second coming study Bibles and the list goes on.
I want to put together the Alphabetical Bible, one with all the books in alphabetical order. I have seen people struggling when our pastor says, "Turn in your Bibles to the fourth chapter of the book of Jonah, verse 2." I've watched people flipping from one end of the Bible to the other so fast that it created a slight breeze across the congregation. And if our pastor ever preaches a four-week series on the book of Jude, it will take most people five weeks to find it. I think sometimes it would help if he would have all of us just turn to the Index and look up the page number for a particular book.
I also think this Alphabetical Bible would be a help to those who are unfamiliar with the books of the Bible or studying it for the first time, like new believers or deacons. It would start with Acts, Amos, 1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles, and when you got to the J's, you would find Jonah, Joshua and Jude. Move on down to the last two books, and you would find Zechariah and Zephaniah. The end is a good place for them, because we Baptists don't usually know they're in the Bible in the first place.
However, this new Bible would probably be outlawed for all children's Bible Drills contests. If you're not familiar with Bible drills, they were a normal part of church life when I was a child. To start the drill, all of the children would line up. The leader would call out, "Attention," and all of the children would stand straight and stiff with their Bibles at their sides. The next command was "Draw Swords," when the children would bring the Bible up in front of them with one hand placed firmly on top of the book and the other on the bottom. At that point, the leader would call out a book, chapter and verse and yell, "Charge!" The children would frantically flip through the Bible looking for the verse. The first one to find it would step forward and read it aloud.
On second thought, I don't know if my Alphabetical Bible would really be an advantage to this generation of children because they know their ABCs about as well as they do the books of the Bible. I have had college students do filing for me who had to sing the ABC song to get the file folders in the right place. I'm sure that singing or humming the ABC song at a Bible drill would be forbidden.
All kidding aside, your children need to learn the books of the Bible. Not only do they need to know the order of the books, but they also need to learn that the books of the Bible are grouped into categories: Law, Historical Books, Major Prophets, Minor Prophets, the Gospels, Pauline Letters and more. Within each section, every book has its own order and purpose. The Bible was not just thrown together at random but laid out with a divine plan and direction. And the more you know why a book was written, to whom it was written and who is its author, the more you will marvel at the holy Book that contains it.
The Bible was written over a 1600-year period by approximately 40 men. The first words were penned in 1500 BC and the last in 100 AD. The Bible was written on three different continents in three different languages on a thousand different subjects, yet with one central theme: God's love and redemption of mankind from sin by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is a book that will set you free. "To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, 'If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free'" (John 8:31, 32).
Maybe it is time for you to blow the dust off your own Bible and begin to rediscover for yourself the incredible Word of God. My young grandson, Titus, is now learning the ABC song. So far he has only gotten to the C part. And don't blame the kid for being slow; it takes his poppy an hour and a half to watch Sixty Minutes. But as soon Titus learns his ABCs, I want to make sure he learns that
The B-I-B-L-E
Yes that's the book for me.
I stand alone on the Word of God
The B-I-B-L-E.

Design and test of a MEMS strain-sensing device for monitoring artificial knee implants
This paper describes the development of a polyimide-based MEMS strain-sensing device. Finite element analysis was used to investigate an artificial knee implant and assist on device design and to optimize sensing characteristics. The sensing element of the device was fabricated using polyimide micromachining with embedded thin-metallic wires and placed into a knee prosthesis. The device was evaluated experimentally in a mechanical knee simulator using static and dynamic axial load conditions similar to those encountered in vivo. Results indicates the sensor is capable of measuring the strain associated to the total axial forces in the range of approximately 4 times body weight with a good sensitivity and accuracy for events happening within 1 s time window.

A World Without Guitars
It is hard to imagine a world without guitars. And in fact, from antiquity, the world has had the guitar and its cousins and its predecessors. But by 1952, the acoustic guitar in America, and especially the steel-string guitar, was looking over into the abyss. Fortunately there were even then a few heroes who really played the thing and kept it from a worse obscurity. But in those days the only people really playing the steel-string guitar were Hank Snow, sometimes Merle Travis, and a few other rare guitar players whose main instrument was often something else. Of course the country musicians played rhythm and the blues players made great music that was bottled up in the Ghetto of the the radio "race" stations," but in general, the steel-string guitar was one of the most deeply obscure instruments in the world.

Fijians to get a say in new constitution
For the first time, Fijians will have input into the development of a new constitution for the nation.
Commodore Frank Bainimarama has outlined plans for a new constitution that he says will remove systemic corruption.
Public consultations on the constitution will begin in July, with a draft to be drawn up by January next year.
Commodore Bainimarama says it is a remarkable day in the history of Fiji.
"It must be done properly. When we are done, Fiji will have an enduring blueprint for all Fijians," he said.
"Every Fijian who wants to contribute and be forward-looking in the creation of an enlightened constitution will have the opportunity to do so."
Commodore Bainimarama says the constitution will aim to be based on universal values such as a secular state, the removal of systemic corruption, an independent judiciary, elimination of discrimination and good and transparent governance.
He says it will mean one vote per person, the elimination of ethnic voting, a system of proportional representation and a voting age of 18.
Fiji has been in the grip of a military dictatorship for the past five years.
Although emergency laws were lifted in Commodore Bainimarama's New Year's Eve address, the situation for those who oppose the interim government remains tough.
The interim regime has promised to hold elections based on the new constitution in 2014.

Ryanair: "Our outlook remains cautious for the year. We expect full year traffic to grow 4% (7% in H1, and 1% in H2 due to winter capacity cuts). We expect positive yields will continue in Q2 and anticipate smaller fuel cost increases (due to higher Q2 comparable last year and fuel saving measures we have implemented). Currently, we have no visibility of next winter's yields but expect that continuing austerity, EU recession, and lower yields at new bases will restrain fare growth. Until we get some H2 yield visibility our guidance for FY 13 remains unchanged, in the range of EUR400m to EUR440m as previously guided." Source: Company statement, 30-Jul-2012.

Comparing Line Voltage and Low Voltage
This month, Randall tackles a cost/efficiency comparison between line voltage and low voltage light sources.
Low voltage recessed adjustable fixtures, using 12V halogen lamps, provide 100W of dazzle for 50W worth of power.
Randall, in the middle of a family room remodel, my customer's architect recommended low voltage recessed lights (MR16). But the less expensive alternative is line voltage 4-inch recessed lights. Can you provide a cost/energy-efficiency comparison between low voltage and line voltage?
I often hear people saying that an MR16 bulb uses less electricity than a 120V reflector bulb. In truth, a 50W MR16 bulb uses as much power as a standard 50W reflector bulb. The difference is that it gives you close to 100W worth of illumination for 50W worth of power consumption. But there is also the issue of lamp life: low voltage bulbs compared to line voltage bulbs. A standard household bulb lasts 750 hours, while a standard reflector bulb lasts 2,000 hours, and a standard MR16 lasts 6,000 hours. Note that this is what is called average rated lamp life, which essentially means that at the rated life, such as 750 hours for a household bulb, half of the lamps would be burned out at the 750-hour mark and half would last longer than 750 hours.

I think that there are many opportunities for people to get excellent training in NLP, and yet some people base their decision of where to go on geographical location or convenient time frame, assuming that all NLP Practitioner Trainings are created equal (after all, they all have the same name). This can be a big mistake!! There is such a wide assortment of quality and course content in this field, so taking a training based upon location or time is a bad move. It's best to decide on the training you want, THEN figure out what you need to do to get there.
There are diverse philosophical differences and a variety of values and beliefs surrounding NLP training. An important distinction is to first realize that there is no "right" or "wrong" way to "do" NLP, it's just that some NLP centers get different results than others. The results that the trainer gets is what is important. The quality of the students they produce is the measurement of a trainer. Not time in business. Not how many people attend the program. Not how much money they make. Not how slick their website looks. Not how many articles or books they've written.
What matters is the results the people who attend the seminars are getting. People should be looking for NLP training that is "right" for them because each training is suited for different types of individuals. All it takes is a few phone calls, a few reference checks, maybe some web surfing and you will be able to find the training that's right for you.
I have put together a list of things people may want to consider when looking for NLP Training. I welcome your suggestions, ideas, discussions, additions, etc.
1. First, clarify your outcome for taking the training. What are you hoping to achieve? Be honest with yourself. Do you want to have power? Do you want to help people? Do you want to make some personal changes? Do you want to have a certificate? Do you want to have better communication skills to get ahead in your career? Does your wife/husband tell you to need to change? Do you have therapy issues that may be better solved through one-on-one therapy? Do you want to influence others? Do you want to be more motivated? Do you want to improve your business/career?
2. Do NOT spend all your hard earned money on an NLP training before researching thoroughly at least 3 or 4 training institutes.
3. Surf the web for NLP web sites. Read entire web sites if you have the time, especially the sections "about us" or "our philosophy". Notice which web site "speaks" to you and your reasons for attending the training. Do not look at location or dates until you have selected a training institute. Making a decision based on dates or location alone is sure to get you an inferior or mediocre training. Just think about it — not only will you be investing a great deal of money and time, you will be spending 4-20 days with very influential people — what kind of people do you want influencing you? These people will help you shape the way you think about NLP, about making changes, about interacting with others… we'll get into this deeper a little later in this article.
4. CALL THE INSTITUTE during their office hours. Talk to a human being on the phone. If you must leave a message, how quickly do they return your call? Send an e-mail. How quickly and how politely do you get a reply (to be sure they received it, send two)? Size them up. Do they respond to your questions with politeness? Do you like their attitude? Do you feel excited to attend? Do they use NLP to sell you? If so, do you like the approach? Do you feel like you are being "sold" or do you feel like they are considering your needs and fitting you to the correct program? Are they high energy or low energy? These questions help you judge basic customer service skills. If you are not getting good customer service over the phone, then you will not get good customer service at the workshop. Most often, the same people who talk to you on the phone control the seminar logistics. That means if they are sloppy or hurried on the phone or do not return your call, that will be the same service you get at the seminar. TELL the institute WHY you want to take NLP training (from question 1). This is very important! They should be able to clearly let you know if you will be able to achieve this outcome or not during the training. If they cannot accommodate your requests, ask them if any other NLP institute that they know of specializes in this area.
5. What about the number of days the course takes? There are practitioner training programs out there that range from 4 days to 21 days! Wow! Here are some guidelines to help: Generally speaking, the longest programs are more "chunked down", meaning chunked into smaller pieces and dished out at a slower pace. Longer DOES NOT mean that you'll learn more material. The other extreme are the short programs (less than 5 days) — these are the most obvious — there is a basic set of practitioner skills that couldn't possibly be covered properly in that short amount of time. Balance is the key. Consider quality before quantity of training time. Also consider class hours, but only briefly, because it really is not that important.
6. Is it FUN??? I got a call the other day from a man that told me his practitioner training was boring… I couldn't hardly believe it! I know that I wouldn't want to spend all that money and time if I was bored through the whole thing! If there is one thing that learning NLP has done for me in my life, it was to end boredom forever… I've added more laughs and joy in my life because of learning to "play" and "learn like a child does" in my practitioner training. You will learn 300 times as much if you learn how to have fun while you are doing it.
Or worse… I have heard of NLP trainings where more than half of the class time was spent attending to people who were crying and uncovering all kinds of bad feelings. I've also heard of trainings where the students were afraid or too intimidated to ask questions! It seems to me that we are already skilled enough at feeling small or unhappy, what we need is trainings that teach us how to feel confident and full of life!! :-)
Changing behaviors can sometimes be challenging, but it still should be a fun experience. If NLP isn't about making the gray matter between your ears rock and roll, then you are doing it wrong. Practitioners should be bringing more joy and bliss into other people's and their own lives, instead of uncovering shame, past trauma and wounded inner children (These are serious issues and should be handled by a professional psychologist). The training environment should be a welcoming place where you feel safe and at home, rather than feel fearful or intimidating. Learning NLP should be a delightful, laughter-filled experience; one that you will remember forever.
7. Many training centers try to be everything to everybody. The fact is, they all are usually better at one thing or the other. Some are better at teaching therapists to do better therapy. Some are better at getting people to change themselves rather than to "do" NLP "on" someone else. Some are better at teaching people persuasive communication for business. Some are better at techniques. Some are better at language patterns. Some are better at the methodology.
Ask the training center, what are you good at? What is your specialty?
8. Who are your trainers? Also ask about guest trainers. Do they have a new trainer every couple of days? If so, what happens to them, do they leave, or are they still a part of the program? It is important to have one main trainer or group of trainers who are present throughout the entire course. One of the reasons this is important is so that the format of the class can be changed in response to the groups needs. If you have a new trainer every couple of days, the course content will be rigidly adhered to — more like college or a conference. If the class needs more time in a particular area, they won't be able to change the schedule to accommodate this. Same if the class is fast– the trainers won't speed through those topics, causing mass boredom. So make sure you have one main trainer or group of trainers. An intern who is present throughout is not good enough in my opinion because they are not experienced enough to recognize learning patterns accordingly in the students. You are paying for an experienced, high quality trainer, not an intern with a few years experience.
9. How many people are allowed in the class? This is important to consider because if you attend a class of 300+ people, you probably are not going to get much personal attention, hence your learning will be affected. What is the optimal size? (My personal opinion is that a certification course should not be any larger than 45, but you need to judge that for yourself.)
How involved is the trainer with the students? Does the trainer "get on stage" and do his/her speech from there and then leave at breaks? Or does the trainer spend time with the students after class and during the class? Can students ask questions? How are questions handled? These are some other eye opening questions to ask the institute.
10. Beware of trainers that claim they will INSTALL everything into your head and you won't have to do anything. If that were possible, then you would be able to learn how to drive a car by attending a seminar where the trainer hypnotizes you and then you walk out with the ability to drive. I wouldn't get into that car, would you?
While hypnosis may help you to learn more quickly, it does not replace the activity of DOING. If you hear people say, "I had a great time, but I don't know what I learned" – this is your first clue that they were trained by an "Installer".
The other question is, "What exactly are they installing?" Did you ever consider what the underlying messages are? If you are an advanced student, pick up a copy of their tapes and take notes — what does that story s/he is telling imply about the trainer, about the student? This question will get you more information than any other thing you can do. Do the stories, metaphors, tales, commands lead the student to learn and discover things on their own, or do they serve to boost the trainers ego?
Some people may not want to hear this, but mastering NLP takes longer than a 4-20 day class. It takes practice in the real world. There is a TON of material that you will pick up and use during the training and other things that will take some time to master. This is a normal learning process. Training is the beginning, not the end of learning.
You will learn far more from a trainer that teaches you how to learn things in a new way so that you will go out into the world with a new ability to learn and absorb material. This way, you will have developed something that will last forever, rather than a feeling of motivation that will fade over time.
11. It is a common occurrence in the NLP world to reduce an NLP principle to a formula, or set of procedures or steps, and instruct the person to simply follow the steps. This is a really good way to market something and make lots of money. And it's also a great way for a trainer to reframe all responsibility for really teaching people something valuable – what they produce are a bunch of people going around trying to figure out "what to do when" or "which technique will work to fix this". Personally, I'd rather have my students out there thinking things like "I wonder how easily this can be accomplished?" or "How incredible can I feel today and how contagious will this be?" or "What new, creative opportunities will I discover here?"
A training needs to be designed for mastery of the underlying principles and ideas that NLP is founded on – modeling, models for learning, language and attitude. Why? Because these are the things that you miss when you try to learn NLP from a book or a tape program. Informational learning, or learning a set of techniques can easily be accomplished by the products on the market – and there are lots of NLP products to go around for everyone. So why spend your time and money on a training that is basically going to reiterate everything you've already read about? Instead, spend your time in class with a training institute that understands this and creates experiences in which you will soar!
12. A great question to ask the certification organization is, what happens if a person doesn't get certified, but still wants to? Do they have to pay more money and do more training? Many training centers just give a certificate to everyone who pays their tuition. Find out what their standards are. Do they certify everyone? How many people last year didn't get certified and why? The answers will be enlightening.
13. Ecology is a misunderstood notion in the NLP Community. Everyone seems to have their own idea about what it is and why it's important. I think it's an important issue because people are in awe of the power of the technology and can immediately see the potential for abuse. Even though it is often mistaken as such, ecology doesn't have anything to do with being nice. It has to do with considering the whole system before you influence it to head in a specific direction. It means traveling in advance. It means that you know the result and the implications BEFORE you go messing around inside someone's head.
I once heard about a trainer who (in front of everyone) took a person who wanted to quit smoking through a FIVE hour six-step reframe (with a break for lunch) and the guy ended up leaving the entire training talking about how he couldn't get the voices in his head to shut up. The trainer told the class that he wasn't "ready" to change!!!! This is NOT ecology. This is someone who didn't know where she was going when she went into the forest and then got lost (my guess, back in her own issues and agenda). Ask the people you are talking to about ecology and find out what they say.
14. Attend an introductory class, if close by, to see how the trainer performs and to meet them in person. This is a big help at a lower cost.
15. If the training center seems satisfactory to you, take the next step and ask for phone numbers or e-mail addresses of past customers. CALL/WRITE them. Ask them what they liked about the training and what they are doing differently as a result of the training. What did they learn and how does it impact them? How long ago did they do the training and what results are they still getting? What do they think about the character of the trainer/s? What other NLP trainers have they experienced? Can they compare trainers that you are considering?
It amazes me how many people register for workshops without checking references. Sure, some may say that the institute is not going to give you unhappy customers as references – that's true. However, you will notice a vast difference in the quality of references between different institutes and this will let you know who to train with. If an institute is reluctant or refuses to give you references, then forget them.
Also, check credentials of the trainer. There are "trainers" who advertise on the internet who haven't even received an NLP training! They studied it from books and bestowed upon themselves the title of NLP trainer. Some will tell you they have a certificate, but when you ask them where they were trained and by whom, they do not have an answer. Avoid those who refuse to give you information about where and with whom they have trained.
In conclusion, I'd like to say that there are a lot of wonderful training opportunities out there and they are all very different and unique. Pick trainers and institutes that value learning – that want to help you stretch and grow. Choose the one that is best for you, your lifestyle and your outcomes for taking the program.
To me, NLP is not about having cut and dry answers for everything in life – its about asking better quality questions. It's artistry – things working together in concert. A skilled practitioner is one who is an insatiable learner, someone who never claims to have all the answers or who touts their certificates like they are the proof that they now know all there is to know about NLP. NLP isn't a magic pill with six steps. "Life change" doesn't exist because life is not stagnant; it's a process. What does exist however, is a way of continually growing, learning and changing every day of our lives, getting what we want along the way, while moving in the direction we want to go. It is about being happy and realizing we are the creators of our experience in life.
Hope you have found this interesting. Your comments are welcome.

Layout of my Grandparents....I love them!!!!
Hello everyone!
Today I have a single layout to share with you. I made this quite a while ago but I still wanted to share it since I was so pleased with how it turned out. A lot of times I try to fill up as much space as humanly possible on a scrapbook layout but thanks to entering different challenges on various blogs, I am sort of forced out of my comfort zone to try new ways to scrap. As I said, this layout was made a while ago but I'm about 99.9% sure that the challenge was from Paper Issues.
This layout features my darling grandparents....they have been married nearly all of their lives, over 60 years at this point. I made the layout on a plain white sheet of card stock and kept all of the embellishments to the right. I have gold/silver washi, acetate with gold script, gold paper and polaroids, gold words and butterflies and then to change it up just a bit I added some bare wood veneer elements. I'm super happy with it.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Remember, you can also find me at: http://www.youtube.com/user/onehappycraftychick if you enjoy videos!

A pinch of fairy sparkle and a barrage of baddie boos mixed with a witty script and fantastic performances - Larbert Opera has definitely found the perfect recipe for a spellbinding panto!
The society's annual foray into pantoland takes us to the village of GooseDown, where Mother Goose is living quite happily with her daughter Jill, soon to be son-in-law Jack and her goose Priscilla.
However, when the Demon King disguises himself as the new town squire, all kind of mayhem ensues as he tries to prove that evil will always triumph over good.
My seven-year-old niece Chloe was my companion for the evening and she was enthralled from the moment the good fairy sparkled her way onto the stage.
Having two One Direction songs in the production was a genius idea by the production team, and it delighted the younger members of the audience, including Chloe.
There's plenty for the grown ups too, with lots of hilarious double entendres which sail over the heads of the youngsters.
The Fairy (Dale Henry) draws the audience right in from the start, and The Demon King (John Coe) drew boos from the beginning - an excellent sign for a panto baddie. His I Don't Care solo in the second half is excellent, and I loved his transformation at the end.
Jack and Jill (Claire Wilson and Michelle Weston) make a lovely couple. Jill's Halo solo is superb, and I loved Jack's traditional panto thigh slapping!
The happless duo of Nifty and Shifty (Asheligh McGeorge and Lucy Andrew) were a hilarious addition to the production, and Chloe was delighted to see her dancing teacher Miss Ashleigh on stage!
Silly Billy played by Stewart Borthwick was fantastic, and the chemistry between him and Mother Goose was superb.
Mother Goose herself (himself?!) was the star of the show. Derek D. Easton is the perfect pantomime dame, and he brought life and vibrancy to the role. There was a hilarious first night mishap involving his wig during the Fountain of Youth scene and a lovely bit of improvisation between Mother Goose and Silly Billy really added to the show!
The principal cast are supported well by the lively and bright chorus, who bring a new energy and enthusiasm to the production every time they take to the stage.
The costumes throughout were fantastic, in particular the Demon King's red suit and the blue dresses of Virtue and Vanity.
The outstanding outfits of the evening belonged to Mother Goose, who had a new frock, wings and shoes for each scene.
Mother Goose is on at the Dobbie Hall in Larbert until Saturday at 7.30 p.m. each day, with a matinee at 2.30 p.m. on Saturday. For tickets, call the Steeple Box Office on (01324) 506850.

Riverfront Park's entrance may receive a new look
Sat., Sept. 15, 2012
Despite budget shortfall, Parks Department moves forward with plan
The front door of Riverfront Park could get a significant facelift next year – just as some park programs deal with $1 million in cuts.
The Spokane Park Board this week approved its 2013 spending. The main part of the budget, which includes operations, will fall from $18.7 million this year to $17.5 million next year.
Despite the cuts, a plan is moving forward that could cost more than a half-million dollars to build a permanent restroom and spruce up the area around the Rotary Fountain, which parks officials see as the main entrance to the park.
Parks Director Leroy Eadie said cuts in operations shouldn't put a halt to all long-term projects.
A decline in the parks budget "doesn't mean that we don't keep doing capital projects or make improvements," he said. "You don't stop maintaining the park system."
Last month, the Park Board voted 6-3 to approve a contract to design the new building that will sit west of the Rotary Fountain and replace the Carrousel Grill, a trailer that sits north of the fountain. The new structure also will include an area that will allow park employees to add chemicals into the fountain without going below ground. Eadie said the current setup is a safety concern.
In 2010, the parks department bought a $50,000 mobile restroom to meet state health standards requiring a restroom within 100 feet of the fountain. At the time, officials said they would build a permanent restroom within two years. Restrooms in the adjacent carousel building are not handicapped-accessible.
"I don't want to see this temporary bathroom there another season," Park Board member Ross Kelley said at a meeting last month. "We're into our third season. If we don't get this thing going we'll get into our fourth year for our temporary bathroom."
Park Board members, who have the final say on park policy and spending, generally agree that a permanent restroom is needed, but they have disagreed on timing and spending.
Board member Dr. Sam Selinger said last month that he was concerned that spending up to $69,000 on the design contract would make it difficult not to approve construction, which has been estimated as high as $479,000.
"These are hard economic times, and I think that we need to demonstrate to the public that we have fiscal discipline," Selinger said at the August meeting.
This week, Selinger said he's more confident that the end result will be fiscally responsible. The board has continued to meet and consider costs and design, he said.
"We are paying very special attention that we maximize value," he said.
This summer, the Park Board after years of work approved a long-term plan for Riverfront Park, setting goals and creating a general vision for many aspects of the park. Eadie said the new building does not conflict with the plan, which envisions a new building to house the Looff Carrousel in about the same location it is now.
Councilman Mike Allen, who is the City Council's liaison to the board, said he generally supports construction of a new restroom and bistro building.
"That is the primary gateway to Riverfront Park, which right now has two trailers," he said. "Is that what we want to greet people as they enter?"
