Kickstarting for Theatrical Distribution: Pro's & Con's/
- Pro's
- The obvious pro here is that you get money to make your film.
- You also get to connect with your audience before your film even exists.
- If you run a tremendously successful campaign, you'll be noticed by festival programmers, producers, talent and distribution companies.
- Through the process of your campaigning, you get to weed out you "good" outreach ideas from your "bad" outreach ideas, and you can use this data to inform your outreach and marketing efforts later on in your films' release. Crowdsourcing is your chance to try anything and everything, and learn how to connect and engage with your audience so come screening time, you'll have a slew of email addresses and Facebook fans to tell about your exciting news, in a tried and true engaging way.
- Con's
- You HAVE to connect with your audience BEFORE your film exists. You have nothing (or very little) to show to your fans. If you do get backers, it'll be months and months before you can show them a completed project and, by then, they may have lost interest in your project.
- If you run a mediocre or not very successful campaign, you won't be noticed by festival programmers, producers, talent and distribution companies. If they do stumble upon your less-than-awesome campaign, you may look disorganized or as if there is no built-in audience for your project down the line.
- If and when the time comes that you need more money to finish your film/distribute your film/travel with your film/create key art for your film and so on, you may have already tapped out all your favors and asks via Kickstarter.
Kickstarting to DISTRIBUTE a movie:
- Pro's
- The obvious pro here is that you get money to distribute your film and hold on to your theatrical rights.
- You also get to connect with your fans RIGHT before you unleash your film onto the universe. If you're lucky and smart, you'll Kickstart with a theatrical plan in mind so that you can announce theatrical details throughout your campaign.
- You get to SELL a finished product to your fans. Digital downloads, DVDs, tickets and community screenings (what people want!) are just a click.
- If you run a tremendously successful campaign, you'll be noticed by exhibitors across the country. Once upon a time, regional theaters looked to New York opening weekend grosses to decide if they would book a film. What if they looked at your Kickstarter grosses instead?
- You get to weed out you "good" outreach ideas from your "bad" outreach ideas, as you gear up for your theatrical outreach. So by the time you're 2 months out from your opening date, you already have a slew of partners waiting and ready to pounce on your promotions.
- Con's
- Somehow you have to finance your film to completion without Kickstarter. Good luck!
- If you're Kickstarting to raise funds in order to hire a team to distribute a film (bookers, designers, publicists, grassroots outreach, etc.), you have to WAIT until you have the money in place before you can hire them. It can be a tremendously stressful situation to be in.
- If you blow your film industry coverage and buzz on your festival circuit and your Kickstarter campaign, who will you turn to in order to create buzz for theatrical? Be mindful of the delicate balance - on the one hand, you need some industry press talking about your kickstarter campaign so that you can hit your goal and release the film. On the other hand, you need some industry press talking about your film right before theatrical, to help get butts in seats when the day comes.
Of course, there's no right or wrong time to crowdfund. It just depends on what you want to get out of the experience, besides money. As you prepare for your crowdfunding campaign, be mindful of how the above factors may impact your films' long term trajectory. And then hold your breath and hit the "launch" button!

New York – A coalition of health campaigners on Tuesday urged a boycott of Johnson & Johnson until it removes from its baby shampoo a preservative considered by the U.S. government to be a possible trigger for some cancers and skin allergies.
The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics said in a report that the health care company uses the preservative quaternium-15 in the Johnson's Baby Shampoo line sold in the United States and elsewhere.
Quaternium-15 is added to many cosmetic products to prevent spoiling and contamination, and the preservative works by releasing formaldehyde to kill bacteria.
The U.S. Department of Health said formaldehyde is known to cause cancer, although exposure to it is difficult to avoid as it is widely used in some form in consumer products and traces of it are found in the air, particularly inside the home.
Repeated exposure also can increase the risk of a person developing allergic skin reactions, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
There are no restrictions on the use of formaldehyde-releasing preservatives in cosmetics.
Responding to the report, Johnson & Johnson said it has been working on phasing out formaldehyde-releasing preservatives from its baby products since 2009, when the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics first raised its concerns with the company about its baby shampoo.
"We know that some consumers are concerned about formaldehyde," the company said in a statement, "which is why we offer many products without formaldehyde-releasing preservatives, and are phasing out these types of preservatives in our baby products worldwide."
It said its current formulations were nonetheless safe and met or exceeded safety regulations in every market where they are sold.
"Clearly there is no need for Johnson & Johnson to expose babies to a known carcinogen when the company is already making safer alternatives," Lisa Archer, director of the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics at the Breast Cancer Fund, said in a statement.
The Campaign said the company is already making formaldehyde-free baby shampoo for sale in Japan, South Africa, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, among other countries.
"All babies deserve safer products," Archer said.
Since the Campaign first raised its concerns, Johnson & Johnson has released a new line in the United States called Johnson's Naturals, which does not contain formaldehyde-releasing preservatives.
The company said it also is working to eliminate 1,4-dioxane, a contaminant also thought to be carcinogenic that is commonly found in shampoos and other cosmetics, from its products. The company said it has already reformulated 70 percent of its baby product lines to achieve this goal.
Stacy Malkan, the author of the Campaign's report, said she welcomed Johnson & Johnson's commitment.
"We're really pleased to see them make a public stand, but we feel they need put a timeline to it," she said.
A spokeswoman for Johnson & Johnson said it was not possible to say when its baby product lines would be entirely formaldehyde-free.
The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics describes itself as a coalition of more than 150 nonprofit organizations, including Clean Water Action, the Breast Cancer Fund, Environmental Working Group and Friends of the Earth.

He is starting to get heat from Corporate, and that heat will be passed on to the branches. Earl Marshall: Master Duncan reports that all is good within the Marshalette. There were a few issues after An Tir/West War but those issues have been resolved. There is a new society Earl Marshall, and this will facilitate the updating of the Kingdom ABCs.

Herald: Lord Christopher reports that things are going well with the heralds. He is currently seeking a contingency deputy.

(update added 9-12-05) Refugees refused to take any plane evacuations, fearing difficulty returning afterward. Only a few hundred refugees here, w/ friends/family.

Baroness Khalja wished to remind all autocrats to check on the required Comps. These include All Royalty, Kingdom Champions and Great Officers. Calendar: Master Pyotr stated that he would be stepping down in the next year. He also wished to compliment the Principalities on a great job coordinating with the Calendar. Scribe: There have been a record number of awards given out. The Scribes have gone through three years worth of paper in the last year. This is creating a budget issue that will be addressed.

just be grateful the new chinese year is year of the snakeit could have been year of the horse!
There was a time when beef was on very short supply in my place and we had donkey meat that tasted just like beef. The world is cruel, animals eat animals and we eat them too. Don't make a big fuss about people eating animals, most animals on this planet including ourselves are to be eaten. We got lucky with evolution. Maybe in distance future we all eat tubes of synthetic food paste but right now some of us eat meat and some don't. Unless you are eating the last of a species or something like decimating a species, I have no problem with you.I've heard that snakes when cooked well, tastes like chicken neck. I never had a taste.

I guess I am incorporating two ideas for this post. Saturday Night Genealogical Fun and Sentimental Sunday.
My fathers mother, Gertrude O'Rourke Dowd had a lot of food allergies, but she ate what she was allergic to and then would take her allergy medication. Why? Because I like them.
My father told her he was going to write on her tombstone "Here lies Gertie O'Rourke, she killed herself with her knife and fork."
Later on my father, Thomas Dowd, would complain about various maladies but he would not go to the doctor or if he did he would be noncompliant.
I told him I was going to write on his tombstone. "Here lies Tom Dowd, he thought he knew more than his doctor."
Tom said "Don't you dare." I didn't…..

TradPlus & Veteran Student Services
Did You Know?
About one in six Emporia State undergraduates is TradPlus or Veteran! You're not alone!
Register for the TradPlus & Veteran New Student Orientation Mix and Mingle Social on Thursday, August 15th!
TradPlus: The New Normal
While many think of students coming to college right out of high school, with no partner or dependents, we recognize that more and more students do not fit this profile. Many universities refer to these students as non-traditional. At Emporia State, we refer to these students as TradPlus, because we view this diversity as a plus - a positive! As a TradPlus student, you bring a wealth of life experience and knowledge to the university community.
Maybe you are married and/or a parent. Perhaps you served in the armed forces. You might have started college years ago, and are now coming back to complete your degree. Or, you might be returning to school for the first time since high school graduation. While your journey to higher education may have been different than the traditional high school-to-college path, you bring valuable perspectives and experiences that will enrich campus life inside and outside of the classroom.
Who Are TradPlus Students?
There are several criteria one might use to identify himself or herself as a TradPlus student. Below are the general criteria we use to define TradPlus, but we are here to serve the needs of all students who identify as such.
- Over the age of 24 as an entering student
- Married
- Parent
- Have been out of school for one or more year
- In the military or a veteran of the armed services
TradPlus Student Services: We're Here to Help You!
We know that, as a TradPlus student, you may face different challenges than students who fit the traditional profile. That is why we have TradPlus & Veteran Student Services here in the Center for Student Involvement. We want you to know that you are not alone in your journey at Emporia State. Our TradPlus & Veteran Graduate Student is here to be resource, guide, and mentor for you as you pursue your studies at Emporia State University. And she is passionate about helping veteran and fellow TradPlus students succeed. If you have questions, need any type of assistance, or would like to learn more about campus resources available to you, please do not hesitate to contact us. We believe in you, and we are here for you.
TradPlus & Veteran Student Contact Form

In the early years she played with many Latin, Compa, Calypso, Merengue & Salsa bands, taking her on tours through Puerto Rico, Haiti, South America, Martenique & Guadeloupe.She also spent a Carnival season in Trinidad with her female horn section Amazon Brass!

The generic concept of the artificial meteorite experiment STONE is to fix rock samples bearing microorganisms on the heat shield of a recoverable space capsule and to study their modifications during atmospheric re-entry. The STONE-5 experiment was performed mainly to answer astrobiological questions. The rock samples mounted on the heat shield were used (i) as a carrier for microorganisms and (ii) as internal control to verify whether physical conditions during atmospheric re-entry were comparable to those experienced by "real" meteorites. Samples of dolerite (an igneous rock), sandstone (a sedimentary rock), and gneiss impactite from Haughton Crater carrying endolithic cyanobacteria were fixed to the heat shield of the unmanned recoverable capsule FOTON-M2. Holes drilled on the back side of each rock sample were loaded with bacterial and fungal spores and with dried vegetative cryptoendoliths. The front of the gneissic sample was also soaked with cryptoendoliths.
The mineralogical differences between pre- and post-flight samples are detailed. Despite intense ablation resulting in deeply eroded samples, all rocks in part survived atmospheric re-entry. Temperatures attained during re-entry were high enough to melt dolerite, silica, and the gneiss impactite sample. The formation of fusion crusts in STONE-5 was a real novelty and strengthens the link with real meteorites. The exposed part of the dolerite is covered by a fusion crust consisting of silicate glass formed from the rock sample with an admixture of holder material (silica). Compositionally, the fusion crust varies from silica-rich areas (undissolved silica fibres of the holder material) to areas whose composition is "basaltic". Likewise, the fusion crust on the exposed gneiss surface was formed from gneiss with an admixture of holder material. The corresponding composition of the fusion crust varies from silica-rich areas to areas with "gneiss" composition (main component potassium-rich feldspar). The sandstone sample was retrieved intact and did not develop a fusion crust. Thermal decomposition of the calcite matrix followed by disintegration and liberation of the silicate grains prevented the formation of a melt.
Furthermore, the non-exposed surface of all samples experienced strong thermal alterations. Hot gases released during ablation pervaded the empty space between sample and sample holder leading to intense local heating. The intense heating below the protective sample holder led to surface melting of the dolerite rock and to the formation of calcium-silicate rims on quartz grains in the sandstone sample.

5.0 Mustang & Super FordsFeatured Vehicles
2014 Ford Shelby Steeda GT500 - Fender Bender
Steeda stretches a Shelby with style and performance
Horse Sense: The handcrafted Steeda Widebody conversion starts at $60,000. Each handcrafted vehicle will be listed in the Steeda Registry as a Limited Edition Steeda widebody conversion, authenticating its collectibility for future years.
Given the company's roots in road racing, we tend to think of the folks at Steeda Autosports as masters of handling and chassis tuning, but over the company's quarter- century of operation, their Mustang parts portfolio has expanded well beyond the realm of just suspension hardware. Steeda's current offerings include everything from those track-proven chassis bits to engine, driveline, brake, and body hardware, and nearly everything in between.
For those who'd rather not bother with the à la carte menu, there's always the Steeda Q-Series of turn-key serialized Mustangs. On that topic, what we have here is a new option in the Q-Series lineup, a distinctive widebody conversion that puts more flare (and flair) in a Mustang's flanks, and in the process, allows a lot more rubber to meet the road.
Photo GalleryView Photo Gallery
For this, the widebody program's first build, Steeda opted to perform the transformation on a completely loaded '14 GT500 coupe, though it can also be optioned on any current production Q-Series GT, Boss 302 or V-6, at the customer's discretion. Let's start with some numbers: the Steeda widebody is a full 6 inches wider than stock up front, and no less than 7 inches broader out back. Yet this generous girth and accompanying fat rolling stock is so cleverly shaped and blended as to appear almost factory in execution. In other words, this is one widebody that doesn't in any way come across as some boy-racer with tacked-on flares—it's the most sophisticated Mustang widebody execution this scribe has ever seen.
Essential in the design and fitment of the conversion are completely new front and rear fascias, shaped to flow and blend seamlessly into the widened flanks for a subtle transition from any viewing angle. In fact, it may only be when parked beside a standard Mustang that the widebody's huge difference in track width becomes obvious.
Then again, it will also become blatantly obvious in terms of launch and cornering grip on a track or serpentine stretch of pavement, because the widebody's front skins measure 285/30R-22 on 10.5-inch-wide rims, while massive 12.25-inch-wide hoops wearing 335/25R-22 rubber are completely tucked away at the rear. So you see, going back to Steeda's racing roots, this certainly wasn't just a styling exercise; it was a handy way to massively increase traction—both lateral and longitudinal—while also just happening to look smoothly menacing in the process.
Perhaps so as not to distract from its intended purpose, this first widebody is almost completely stock inside and underhood. (Hey, it's a loaded GT500, so how much more does it need?) But when it came to the chassis, Steeda threw the book... or rather, the catalog at the widebody in the form of a complete suspension upgrade. In terms of handling, think of it as the world's widest slot car.
Of course, customers can order the widebody with just about any performance upgrade on Steeda's vast menu. This particular car demonstrates one such widebody option: shaved door handles with electronic door openers. And, if you'd prefer different rolling stock, Steeda will work with you on wheel and tire options, which can be to your specifications.
Like all Steeda Q-Series Mustangs, the widebody variants can be ordered through Steeda-authorized Ford dealers, or directly through Steeda. But, to be clear, what you can't do is order the widebody as a do-it-yourself parts kit. This conversion is a major undertaking and is only available fully installed and painted to customer specification on a serialized Steeda Mustang and as such, carries a full warranty for the conversion work.
Let's start with some numbers: the Steeda widebody is a full 6 inches wider than stock up front, and no less than 7 inches broader out back.
For those who'd rather not bother with the à la carte menu, there's always the Steeda Q-Series of turnkey, serialized Mustangs.
In terms of handling, think of it as the world's widest slot car.

Terrell scholarship to benefit non-traditional students
PLAINVIEW – Wayland Baptist University officials and special guests gathered Saturday
to dedicate the newly endowed Dr. Benita Lou "Corky" Terrell Endowed Scholarship.
Joined by her husband, Donald Lee, and several of their children and grandchildren, Corky was recognized for her contributions to Wayland's School of Behavioral and Social Sciences, where she taught sociology.
"Today is about legacies and blessing," said Wayland Director of Development Hope English. "Endowed scholarships are forever gifts. Long after everyone in this room is Dr. Terrell and Dr. Armes gone to glory, there will still be young ladies receiving the Dr. Benita Lou "Corky" Terrell endowed scholarship."
The Terrell scholarship has been designated to benefit non-traditional female students at Wayland. Terrell explained the desire to help non-traditional women came to her after a conversation with one of her students. Dr. Terrell said the student asked if she could turn a paper in late, saying it was written and ready, but her husband had thrown out her computer the day before and she could not access. Terrell said this student exhibited signs of abuse with bruising on her face and she felt the loss of the computer was a result of an argument.
"I knew standing there in that hallway that someday I would stand here," Terrell said.
Dean of the School of Behavioral and Social Sciences Dr. Estelle Owens thanked Terrell for her generosity, and Rachel Laue, a non-traditional history major from Great Falls, Mont., gave a student response in which she described her journey toward a degree that would not have happened without scholarships and the generosity of donors.
"I recognize first-hand how important this scholarship is going to be for so many people," Laue said. "Since I have been at Wayland, I have met many women who do not fall into the traditional age range. Some, like me, are trying to create a life for themselves. Some are single mothers looking for a way to support their families. Some are career driven women following their life's calling. But they all have one thing in common ‑‑ they are all in search of a better life. Now, thanks to your generosity, many of them will have a chance for just that."
Scholarships become fully endowed when the principle reaches $25,000. From that point, interests from the account is awarded to students based on the scholarship. For more information on endowed scholarships, contact English at 806-291-3430.

Since we opened in April 1996 we have found caring homes for an average of 20 animals each week (over 7000 to date). They come from many sources; some are abandoned, others come to us because their owners have to go into care, some due to marital breakups, moving abroad, and others are unclaimed animals from pounds throughout Northern Ireland.
We accept as many as possible, but as we have a strict NO KILL policy, our kennels are always full – over 70 dogs and 60 cats, as well as unwanted litters of puppies and kittens and various other small animals. They are secure in the sanctuary until another home is found.

Money used to be an issue for Texans running back Arian Foster.
For an Epix documentary titled "Schooled: The Price of College Sports," Foster says he accepted funds as an amateur athlete at Tennessee.
"My senior year, I was getting money on the side," he said in the documentary. "I really didn't have any money. I had to either pay the rent or buy some food. I remember the feeling of like, 'Man, be careful.' But there's nothing wrong with it. And you're not going to convince me that there is something wrong with it. There were plenty of times where throughout the month I didn't have enough for food…
"I'm a firm believer that an employee should get paid for his work. And, 100 percent, I see student athletes as employees. Hiding from it is just cowardly."
Foster was asked on Friday to discuss his comments on the documentary and he replied: "I feel like I shouldn't have to run from the NCAA anymore."

Browse the ActiLume DALI products and find the product that you are looking for by using the compare option.
Sort by:
|ActiLume is a plug & play control system which offers energy saving by daylight harvesting and automatic switching. The system is supported with simple, dedicated application and installation sheets
|The ActiLume system consists of three state-of-the-art miniature sensors combined with a controller containing a series of pre-programmed modes
|The two most frequently applied modes − cell or open-plan offices − can be selected via a simple push of the service button
Philips ActiLume is a DALI-based lighting control system designed for maximum visual comfort and energy savings of up to 75% (in fully automatic mode and when used in combination with Philips HF-Regulator EII Touch and DALI ballasts). This makes it possible to achieve a quick return on investment.
The light sensor is sensitive to visible radiation (matching the human eye), providing automatic savings through daylight-dependent regulation, without any visual discomfort for the user.
The movement detector is very sensitive to human movement and is combined with extended delays to provide optimal functionality in an office environment.
Semi-automatic solutions can be created by connecting a mains-rated spring-back switch to the controller or by using an infrared remote control unit. In this way the settings can be manually overruled according to personal preference.
In addition, ActiLume makes it possible to choose specific modes that have been specially developed in line with new legislation, thus making the system very versatile in use. These modes can be activated by using the simple mode selection tool IRT8098/00.
A specific application setting can be changed easily by selecting another mode on the advanced mode selection tool IRT8099/20.
The system can control a maximum of 34 ballasts and can be extended with a maximum of two additional movement detectors, extension sensor type LRM8118/00 or LRM8119. For each additional movement detector the maximum number of ballasts is decreased by 1.
The factory light-level setting is 600 lux at a reflection factor of 0.3.
The ActiLume system is designed for all office applications, from open-plan to cell offices, lobbies or toilets, and from corridors to small meeting rooms
It offers specific comfort modes, e.g. for schools, light-lines and direct/indirect lighting concepts

Westminster can be a catapult or a capstone for a dog's career. Many of the dogs being shown next week will be appearing at their last AKC dog show after a memorable year. Others will be looking to catch the Westminster Wave, the momentum that comes from a good showing at the Garden. Here's Whom to Watch at Westminster (WWW) in the Hound Group.
2009's number one Whippet, all systems, CH Starline Chanel, got off to a quick start this year with two all breed BIS including one at the huge Palm Springs Kennel Club. Chanel is currently the number five dog all breeds. Lori Turner-Wilson handles Chanel for breeders/owners Lori & Carey Lawrence.
Our number seven dog all breeds is the Afghan Hound, CH Genesis Silverado, who is our nominee for most consistent winner all breeds. Dylan and handler Marcelo Veras have already logged one all breed BIS and 12 Hound Group Firsts, against tough competition in Florida & Georgia. Dylan was bred by Lou Guerrero, Hank Nave & L Schanzle, and is owned by John Shaw.
However, the dog that has won more Groups than any other so far this year is the Scottish Deerhound, CH Foxcliffe Hickory Wind. Hickory has collected an astonishing 14 Group Firsts and, if that isn't impressive enough, three all breed top awards. Hickory was bred by Cecilia L Dove & Dr R Scott Dove, who co-own Hickory with Sally Sweatt. She is handled by Angela Lloyd.
Our final Hound Group pick is the most popular Australian import since Hugh Jackman, the Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen, CH Rokeena Carte Blanche. CeeJay was last year's number one Hound and number eight dog all breeds, collecting 27 BIS & 93 Hound Group top awards. CeeJay, bred & owned by Robin Wallis of Gisborne, Australia, is co-owned by Russell Wallis (Robin's husband), and Jose, Yvonee, & Christina Herrera, and handled by Jane Alston-Myers.
W Everett Dean Jr will be judging the Hound Group on Monday. The last Hound he awarded a BIS was the American Foxhound, CH Kiarry's Walk This Way, back at the September show of the Warrenton Kennel Club in Millwood VA.

RightUp necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 850 diseños de 168 diseñadores freelance.
TopStay is a website for renting a room, flat/apartment, or house (an "accommodation") for a few days or weeks. The accommodations are provided by the owners of the accommodations, similar to http://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk, and hotels will not be listed.
Compared to hotel websites such as hotels.com or booking.com, the accommodations at TopStay are more affordable, more comfortable, and have more character.
TopStay is a place you can trust to provide quality places to stay. It's a little fun and not the usual thing.
TopStay is easy to use and will provide everything you need to book a room with confidence.
TopStay needs to appeal to two audiences:
1) People that have a room or flat they can rent out for other people to stay in.
2) People who need an accommodation at a particular destination and are willing to stay in someone else's place rather than a hotel.
People who use TopStay to find a room are confident travelers and are willing to try staying somewhere besides a hotel. People who list their flat on TopStay want to make some additional money from their property or enjoy having guests.
We need a logo and a logo-related favicon for TopStay. You should provide source vector art on white backgrounds.
UPDATE: Art that works on a black background was previously asked for. That is no longer required.
The words can be mixed case, TopStay, or all lower case, topstay. It should be one word together, TopStay, and not two separated words, "Top Stay".
UPDATE2: All upper case or using small caps is okay. I now realize that can convey a "top" place better. I'm starting to think all lower case is actually not right.
Having a graphic element with the name is preferred, but not required.
Clean, minimal designs are preferred to complicated ones.
NOTE: Several people have submitted designs that are similar to the HomeAway.com logo. While it's a fairly obvious design choice, I don't want people to think it resembles HomeAway when they see this logo.
A few people have put realistic images. They don't render well when small and I don't think they're as classy. Keep it more abstract and simple.
Do not submit cute, silly, or "fun" treatments.

Ultrafast oscillators designed to meet a wide range of applications and user requirements, from multi-photon excitation microscopy to time-resolved TeraHertz studies.
Recognizing that productivity and cost of ownership are crucial for scientific laser users, Coherent has developed a new protocol that takes key procedures from its industrial manufacturing expertise and applies them toward the design and production of scientific lasers. The results – ultrafast lasers that offer cutting edge performance and industrial-grade reliability, up-time and productivity.
Under this new protocol called "The Industrial Revolution in Ultrafast Science", Coherent rigorously tests every laser during the design and production phases to weed out design and manufacturing weaknesses, resulting in a new level of reliability for ultrafast lasers. During the design phase, we've adopted an industrial-grade HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing) protocol in which the system being produced is subjected to both temperature and vibration cycles in order to expose the weakest links and eliminate them. HASS (Highly Accelerated Stress Screening) is used during manufacturing to weed out any production weaknesses and ensure consistent quality of each laser shipped to customers.
For scientific customers, this revolution in reliability translates into higher data throughput with minimized downtime - lower cost per data point. It delivers a massive reduction in the hidden costs of owning and operating the laser and maximizes experimental productivity.
All of Coherent Ti:Sapphire (Ti:S) ultrafast oscillators are based on reliable Kerr Lens Modelocking to produce a broad range of pulse durations, wavelength ranges and repetition rates.
Vitara is a family of hands-free and maintenance-free ultrafast Ti:S oscillators capable of extreme performance. With models capable of generating pulses <12 fs, powers close to 1W, adjustable bandwidth and center wavelength and a full range of advanced accessories, Vitara is the state-of-the-art choice for your most sophisticated applications.
The Chameleon family provides high output power and ultimate tuning range of 400 nm. Its fully automated and hands-free operations make Chameleon the ultimate engine for applications such as multiphoton excitation, microscopy and general spectroscopy.
For over a decade Vitesse has been the laser of choice for sub-100 fs industrial applications with proven lifetimes of tens of thousands of hours.
Users requiring maximum power and versatility can select our highly-configurable Mira systems pumped by an external Verdi Series pump laser and upgradeable with a large series of options and accessories.
A broad range of accessories (harmonic and parametric generators, pulse pickers, shapers and compressors, synchronization and CEP stabilization units) extends the performance of all these systems as well as upgrades systems already in the field. These advanced accessories provide users with tools that are always ready to propel the most innovative research applications.
