Like Litella, Roseanne was brought in to give editorial replies to current issues. Unlike Emily Litella, however, Roseanne Roseannadanna was not meek or apologetic, but rather very explosive. The character later appeared in Radner's live one-woman shows. Her name is likely a reference to the WABC-TV newswoman from 1972-84 Rose Ann Scamardella.As portrayed by Radner, Roseannadanna was a brash, tactless woman with wild hair.Contents1 Routine 2 Characterization 3 After Saturday Night Live 4 List of SNL Episodes Featuring Rosanne Roseannadanna 5 See also // RoutineRoseannadanna's Saturday Night Live commentary would follow a strict formula. She would read a letter which was almost always from the same person: Richard Feder of Fort Lee, New Jersey (although, on one occasion, she read a letter from a "Mrs." Richard Feder). The letter would ask a series of questions, usually about some current social issue, to which Roseannadanna would usually reply, "Mr. Feder, you sure do ask a lot of stupid questions for a guy from New Jersey," or "You belong in New Jersey!" Then she would sometimes make a derogatory comment about New Jersey. She would then answer the questions.While answering the questions, she would invariably digress, launching into a lengthy anecdote with no relevance to the topic at hand, frequently having to do with an encounter Roseannadanna had had with a celebrity (Bo Derek, Princess Grace, etc.). Invariably, the story would lead into Roseannadanna's going into disgustingly graphic detail about bodily functions or personal hygiene; with these details, she would use a famous celebrity as an example and say that she would ask these celebrities, "What are ya tryin' to do, make me sick?!"Eventually, Jane Curtin would interrupt, stating, "Roseanne, you're making me sick". Curtin would then ask her what her comments had to do with the question. Roseannadanna's response was, "Well, Jane, it just goes to show you, it's always something."She would then wrap up her comments by sharing a piece of advice passed down from a family member (often her father, but sometimes her "Nana" Roseannadanna; in one episode, she mentioned her aunt Pollyanna Roseannadanna, and in another, her "musically happening cousin, Carlos Santana Roseannadanna").CharacterizationThe character also had a tendency to refer to herself by her full name whenever possible ("Mr. Feder, I know what you're talkin' about, because, I, Roseanne Roseannadanna, once had the same thing happen to me.") and often exaggerated her tribulations, saying, "I thought I was gonna die!"For example, she was talking about eating a hamburger in a restaurant and how she felt something hard in it. And she spit it out and it was white and looked like a toenail. She said, "I thought I was gonna die. I mean, what was a toenail doing in my hamburger?" Then she went to the restroom and on the way to the restroom she saw Princess Lee Radziwill who she described as the "classy lady that no one knows where she's the princess of." But what the Princess didn't know was she had a tiny piece of toilet paper hanging off her shoe, and she was walking around and the toilet paper wouldn't fall off. "I thought I was gonna be sick. So I says to her, 'Hey Princess Leehat are ya tryin' to do, make me sick?' " So Jane Curtin asked her what this had to do with anything. Roseanne said, "Well it just goes to show you, it's always something, you either got a toenail in your hamburger or toilet paper clinging to your shoe."After Saturday Night LiveIn Radner's off-Broadway one-woman show, she included a sketch where Roseanadanna was invited to give the commencement speech at Columbia University. In an apparent attempt to prepare the new graduates for the hard road ahead, she described a job interview she'd had with CBS, in which Walter Cronkite mistakenly thought she'd "passed gas" and consequently kicked her out of his office. The character was later credited as "co-author" of Radner's book Roseanne Roseannadanna's Hey Get Back to Work. In the last year of her life, Radner released a memoir of her experience with ovarian cancer, entitled It's Always Something. Radner also recorded the book on audio, imitating Roseannadanna and other of her SNL characters when describing those parts of her life.List of SNL Episodes Featuring Rosanne RoseannadannaOctober 29, 1977 host: Charles Grodin-- on this episode, Gilda's Roseanne Roseannadanna character was not on Weekend Update.

Radio: Carrier Frequency: 2.400 - 2.480 GHz Speed Spectrum: FHSS Modulation mthod: GFSK Synclavier IThe Synclavier System was an early synthesizer and sampler, manufactured by New England Digital. First released in 1975, it proved to be highly influential among both music producers and electronic musicians, due to its versatility, its cutting-edge technology and distinctive sound.First developed at Dartmouth College, the Synclavier was one of the first synthesizers to completely integrate digital technology. It used FM synthesis as well as sampling in order to create sounds, which were stored on large, magnetic disks. It was often referred to, by New England Digital and others, as the "tapeless studio," due to one's ability to compose and produce an entire song, solely on the Synclavier. Synclavier Systems were expensive - the highest price ever paid for one was about $500,000, although average systems were closer to about $200,000 - $300,000. Although this made it inaccessible for most musicians, it found widespread use among producers and professional recording studios, and it competed in this market with other high-end production systems, such as the Fairlight CMI.For the price, users got a system with custom parts, built by hand, all to the highest specifications available. Users enjoyed most of the abilities of modern PC "virtual" sound studios - recording, sequencing, playback, and disk storage. All were integrated seamlessly with the hardware, with a high degree of parallelism built into the electronics (for example, two digital to analog converters for each stereo channel of sampled sound, with analog volume control) to avoid the issues of digital mixing artifacts, latency, and heavy CPU usage that are concerns of modern PC-based studios. In these respects, the Synclavier system still surpasses modern methods.Two generations of the Synclavier System, the Synclavier I and the Synclavier II, were produced. Synclavier II boasted upgraded sampling capacity and memory, as well as a velocity- and pressure-sensitive keyboard. This tends to be the more commonly found, as most Synclavier I owners upgraded after the release of the Synclavier II.The Sample-to-Disk option offered in 1982 was the first 16-bit digital audio hard drive recording device on the market. It was capable of monophonic recordings with a sampling rate of up to 50 kHz. Greater throughput was not possible due to the limitations of hard drives at the time.New England Digital went out of business in 1991, and the Synclavier is no longer manufactured. It is, however, still in use in the recording industry, particularly among soundtrack composers and sound designers.Notable Synclavier usersFrank Zappa - composed his 1986 Grammy-winning album Jazz From Hell and recorded the works of Francesco Zappa in 1984 entirely on Synclavier. Also, the posthumous two-hour Civilization, Phaze III was allegedly around 70% Synclavier-made. Depeche Mode (Mute Records) Fad Gadget (Mute Records} a-ha - the album Hunting High and Low (1985) Paul Simon - on Simon's 1983 album Hearts and Bones, Tom Coppola is credited for Synclavier for the following tracks: "When Numbers Get Serious," "Think Too Much (b)," "Song About the Moon" and "Think Too Much (a)," and Wells Christie is credited with Synclavier on "Rene And Georgette Magritte With Their Dog After The War." On his 1986 album Graceland, Paul [Simon] is credited under "Synclavier" for the following tracks: "I Know What I Know" and "Gumboots" Laurie Anderson - her 1984 album Mister Heartbreak includes visual depictions of Synclavier sound waves in the liner notes Nile Rodgers Chuck Hammer - Guitarchitecture recordings 19831986, and recordings with, Nile Rodgers, Duran Duran and rehearsals with Laurie Anderson Hall & Oates - Most of 1984's Big Bam Boom album. The Cars Genesis - Most musicians using the Synclavier kept it in the studio. Genesis used the instrument in arena shows, which is a high accomplishment as the Synclavier is huge and power to arena stages is typically very noisy. Duran Duran - programmed by Chuck Hammer Bob Boilen - Used during production of the 'whizbang' audio track for the Smithsonian Museum of American History Sean Callery Herbie Hancock Jean-Luc Ponty - particularly on The Gift of Time, and presumably most of his 1980's albums.

He invented the electric clock, the electric printing telegraph, and the first facsimile machine (fax machine). Bain installed the railway telegraph lines between Edinburgh and Glasgow.Contents1 Biography 1.1 Early life 1.2 Career 1.3 Facsimile machine 1.4 Chemical telegraph 2 Later life 3 Death and legacy 4 Further reading 5 External articles // BiographyEarly lifeBain was born in Watten, Caithness, Scotland. Bain's father was a crofter. Bain had a twin sister, Margaret, and, in total, he had six sisters and six brothers. Bain did not excel in school and was apprenticed to a clockmaker in Wick.CareerHaving learned the art of clockmaking, he went to Edinburgh, and in 1837 to London, where he obtained work as a journeyman in Clerkenwell. Bain frequented the lectures at the Polytechnic Institution and the Adelaide Gallery and later constructed his own workshop in Hanover Street.In 1840, desperate for money to develop his inventions, Bain mentioned his financial problems to the editor of the Mechanics Magazine, who introduced him to Sir Charles Wheatstone. Bain demonstrated his models to Wheatstone, who, when asked for his opinion, said "Oh, I shouldn't bother to develop these things any further! There's no future in them." Three months later Wheatstone demonstrated an electric clock to the Royal Society, claiming it was his own invention. However, Bain had already applied for a patent for it. Wheatstone tried to block Bain's patents, but failed. When Wheatstone organised an Act of Parliament to set up the Electric Telegraph Company, the House of Lords summoned Bain to give evidence, and eventually compelled the company to pay Bain ?10,000 and give him a job as manager, causing Wheatstone to resign.Bain's first patent was dated January 11, 1841, and was in the names of John Barwise, chronometer maker, and Alexander Bain, mechanist. It describes his electric clock which uses a pendulum kept moving by electromagnetic impulses. He improved on this in later patents, including a proposal to derive the required electricity from an "earth battery", which consisted of plates of zinc and copper buried in the ground.In December 1841, Bain in conjunction with Lieutenant Thomas Wright RN, patented a method for using electricity to control railway engines by turning off steam, marking time, giving signals, and printing information at different locations. The most significant idea incorporated in the patent was his plan for inverting the needle telegraph earlier developed by Ampere, Wheatstone and others: instead of making signals by a pivoted magnetic needle under the influence of an electromagnet, he made them by suspending a movable coil between the poles of a fixed magnet. A similar concept appears in Sir William Thomson's siphon recorder. Bain also proposed to make the coil record messages by printing them, an idea he developed further in a subsequent patent.Facsimile machineBain invented his facsimile machine in 1843. He used a clock to synchronise the movement of two pendulums for line-by-line scanning of a message. For transmission, Bain applied metal pins arranged on a cylinder made of insulating material. An electric probe that transmitted on-off pulses then scanned the pins. The message was reproduced at the receiving station on electrochemically sensitive paper impregnated with a chemical solution similar to that developed for his chemical telegraph. In his patent description dated May 27, 1843 for "improvements in producing and regulating electric currents and improvements in timepieces, and in electric printing, and signal telegraphs," he claimed that "a copy of any other surface composed of conducting and non-conducting materials can be taken by these means". The transmitter and receiver were connected by five wires. In 1850 he applied for an improved version but was too late, as Frederick Bakewell had obtained a patent for his superior "image telegraph" two years earlier in 1848.Chemical telegraphOn December 12, 1846, Bain, who was then living in Edinburgh, patented a chemical telegraph. He had seen that the Morse and other telegraphs then in use were comparatively slow, due to the mechanical inertia of their moving parts, and realized that the signal current could be used to make a readable mark on a moving paper tape soaked in a mixture of ammonium nitrate and potassium ferrocyanide, which gave a blue mark when a current was passed through it.The speed at which marks could be made on the paper was so...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about laser printing machine, ro pilot machine, .

Marine outfall

2009-05-13T01:47:00.001-07:00

I want to introduct something about . A marine outfall is a pipeline or tunnel that discharges municipal or industrial wastewater, stormwater, combined sewer overflows, cooling water, or brine effluents from desalination plants to the sea. Usually they discharge under the sea's surface (submarine outfall). In the case of municipal wastewater, effluent is often being discharged after having undergone no or only primary treatment, with the intention of using the assimilative capacity of the sea for further treatment. Submarine outfalls are common throughout the world and probably number in the thousands. More than 200 outfalls alone have been listed in a single international database maintained by the Institute for Hydromechanics at Karlsruhe University for the International Association of Hydraulic Engineering and Research (IAHR) / International Water Association (IWA) Committee on Marine Outfall Systems.In Latin America and the Caribbean there were 134 outfalls with more than 500 m length in 2006 for wastewater disposal alone, according to a survey by the Panamerican Center for Environmental Engineering (CEPIS) of PAHO. According to the survey, the largest number of municipal wastewater outfalls in the region exist in Venezuela (39), Chile (39) and Brazil (22).Contents1 Advantages 2 Disadvantages 3 Technology 4 Examples 5 Controversies 6 References 7 Sources 8 External links // AdvantagesAccording to the Australian engineer Sharon Beder the main advantages of marine outfalls for the discharge of wastewater are:the natural dilution and dispersion of organic matter, pathogens and other pollutants the ability to keep the sewage field submerged because of the depth at which the sewage is being released the greater die-off rate of pathogens due to the greater distance they will have to travel to shore. They also tend to be less expensive than advanced wastewater treatment plants, using the natural assimilative capacity of the sea instead of energy-intensive treatment processes in a plant. They also require less land.DisadvantagesMarine outfalls for partially treated or untreated wastewater remain controversial. Still according to Sharon Beder, the design calculation and computer models for pollution modeling have been criticized, arguing that dilution has been overemphasized and that other mechanisms work in the opposite direction, such as bioaccumulation of toxins, sedimentation of sludge particles and agglomeration of sewage particles with grease. Accumulative mechanisms include slick formation, windrow formation, flocculate formation and agglomerated formation. Grease or wax can interfer with dispersion, so that bacteria and viruses could be carried to remote locations where the concentration of bacterial predators would be low and the die-off rate much lower.TechnologyOutfalls vary in diameter from as narrow as 15 cm to as wide as 8 meters; the widest registered outfall in the world with 8 m diameter is located in Navia (Spain) for the discharge of industrial wastewater. Outfalls vary in length from 50 meters to 55 km, the longest registered outfalls being the Boston outfall with a length of 16 km and an industrial outfall in Ankleshwar (India) with a length of 55 km. The depth of the deepest point of an outfall varies from 3 m to up to 60 m, the deepest registered outfall being located in Macuto, Vargas (Venezuela) for the discharge of untreated municipal wastewater.Outfall materials include polyethylene, stainless steel, carbon steel, glass-reinforced plastic, reinforced concrete, cast iron or tunnels through rock. Common installation methods for pipelines are float and sink, bottom pull and top pull.ExamplesSubmarine outfalls exist, existed or have been considered - among many others - in the following locations:AfricaCasablanca (Morocco). AsiaManila Bay (Philippines). Mumbai (India). AustraliaSydney. EuropeBarcelona, Spain Costa do Estoril (Portugal), the Marmara Sea near Istanbul (Turkey), San Sebasti (Spain), Split (Croatia), the Thames Estuary downstream of London (UK), and Edinburgh, Scotland. North AmericaHonolulu (USA), the New York Bight (USA), the Southern California Bight (USA), and Victoria, British Columbia, (Canada). Latin America and the CaribbeanCartagena, Colombia, Ipanema near Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). This outfall, built in 1975, discharges untreated wastewater through a pipe with a diameter of 2.4m and a length of 4,775m at a depth of 27m. Sosua (Dominican Republic). ControversiesIn the 1960s the city of Sydney decided to build ocean sewage outfalls to discharge partially treated sewage 2-4 km offshore at a cost of US$ 300 million.

Soapstone

I want to introduct something about Table Napkin Dispenser (5") & Table Napkin Dispenser (7"). Features: 1) Two-side Table Napkin Dispensers. 2) Designed for easy to refill and dispense Napkin 3) 5" and 7" Length for different usage. 4) Variable color available. The lid of a soapstone box. The lid is 4 inches wide (10 cm).Soapstone (also known as steatite or soaprock) is a metamorphic rock, a talc-schist. It is largely composed of the mineral talc and is rich in magnesium. It is produced by dynamothermal metamorphism and metasomatism, which occurs at the areas where tectonic plates are subducted, changing rocks by heat and pressure, with influx of fluids, but without melting. It has been a medium for carving for thousands of years.Contents1 Petrology 2 Physical characteristics and uses 3 Other names 4 See also 5 References 6 External links // PetrologyA block of talcPetrologically, soapstone is composed dominantly of talc, with varying amounts of chlorite and amphiboles (typically tremolite, anthophyllite, and magnesiocummingtonite), and trace to minor FeCr-oxides. It may be schistose or massive. Soapstone is formed by the metamorphism of ultramafic protoliths (e.g. dunite or serpentinite) and the metasomatism of siliceous dolostones.Pyrophyllite, a mineral very similar to talc is sometimes called soapstone in the generic sense since its physical characteristics and industrial uses are similar,[citation needed] and because it is also commonly used as a carving material. However this mineral typically does not have such a soapy feel as that from which soapstone derives its name.Physical characteristics and usesSoapstone sculpture on the Hoysala temple at Belur, India Steatite is relatively soft (because of the high talc content, talc being one on Mohs hardness scale), and may feel soapy when touched, hence the name. Soapstone is used for inlaid designs, sculpture, coasters, and kitchen countertops and sinks. Traditional Inuit carvings often use soapstone, and some Native American groups made bowls, cooking slabs, and other objects from soapstone, particularly during the Late Archaic archaeological period. Soapstone is sometimes used for fireplace surrounds and woodstoves because it can absorb and evenly distribute heat while being easy to manufacture. This is found in many upscale Alaskan and Scandinavian homes. It is also used for griddles and other cookware. Generally, suppliers of soapstone counter tops recommend the use of mineral oil to enhance the color of soapstone. Mineral oil, also known as liquid petrolatum, is a by product in the distillation of petroleum when producing gasoline, will not produce the desired darker appearance of black coloration with one application.[citation needed] It takes many applications over a long period of time to get to an acceptable difference in the color. Soapstone naturally forms a patina over time, similar to the oxidization process that occurs with other materials like copper.[citation needed] A weathered or aged appearance will occur naturally over time as the patina is enhanced. Applying mineral oil will simply darken the appearance of the stone; it will not and does not protect it in any way.Tepe Yahya, an ancient trading city in southeastern Iran, was a centre for the production and distribution of soapstone in the 5th3rd millennia BC Another instance of use in the ancient world is found in Minoan Crete at the Palace of Knossos, where archaeological recovery has included a magnificent libation table made of steatite.Soapstone has been used in India for centuries as a soft medium for carving, but world wide demand for soapstone is threatening the habitat of India's tigers. The Hoysala Empire temples were made from soapstone.Soapstone is used by welders and fabricators as a marker because, due to its resistance to heat, it remains visible when heat is applied. It has also been used for many years by seamstresses, carpenters, and other craftsmen as a marking tool because its marks are very visible and not permanent. For these purposes, it is often sold in 6 inch long square or round sticks.[citation needed]Soapstone can be used to create molds for casting objects from soft metals, such as pewter or silver. The soft stone is easily carved and is not degraded by heating. The slick surface of soapstone allows the finished object to be easily removed.Soapstone smoking pipes are found, for example, among Native American Indian artifacts.Locally quarried soapstone was used for gravemarkers in 19th century northeast Georgia around Dahlonega and Cleveland, as simple field stone and "slot and tab" tombs.Soapstone is also a basic stone used to carve Chinese seals.An Egyptian carved and glazed steatite scarab amulet.The term steatite is sometimes used for soapstone. It may also denote a type of ceramic material made from soapstone with minor additives and heated to vitrify (to change or make into glass or a glassy substance, especially through heat fusion).[citation needed] It is often used as an insulator or housing...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about earthenware table ware, Automatic Hand Dryer, .

Before each challenge, host Andrew Younghusband performs each challenge to demonstrate that they are doable without error by an average driver. The first episode, where the contestants must drive to the Driver Rehabilitation Centre from a location an hour's drive away in the traditional first challenge, serves as a skills evaluation. Starting with the second episode, and at the end of every episode thereafter, the experts and Andrew decide on which of the remaining contestants have been sufficiently rehabilitated to be let go onto public roads. This continues until three contestants remain, where two traditional final challenges (a "mega-challenge" with elements of previous challenges, as well as a road test through public streets) determine who is named Canada's Worst Driver. Though normally one contestant leaves in every episode, the experts may, at their discretion, refuse to allow anyone to graduate, or conversely graduate more than one contestant in an episode. In extreme circumstances, the experts may also choose to expel a contestant with no intention of improving their driving skills. So far, as Season 4 has progressed, one candidate has been removed from the competition, while the panel has chosen on one occasion to not graduate anyone.This year, like the previous season, roughly half of the challenges are new to the series (though some are inspired by challenges seen in previous years), while the other half, such as the initial drive to the Driver Rehabilitation Centre, the Eye of the Needle, the Water-Tank Challenge, the Mega-Challenge, and the series-ending road test, are returning from previous seasons. However, the challenges this season are more specifically tuned for the individual contestants than in previous years, to better address driving issues specific to each contestant. For this year, a fleet of brand-new luxury cars have been commissioned for some of the challenges.Contents1 Contestants 2 Judges 3 Synopsis 3.1 Episode 1: Guilty as Charged 3.2 Episode 2: Big Manoeuvres 3.3 Episode 3: The Urge to Merge 3.4 Episode 4: Shifty Manoeuvres 3.5 Episode 5: A Turn For the Worst 3.6 Episode 6: It's All Reverse 3.7 Episode 7: Practice Makes Perfect 3.8 Episode 8: The Verdict 4 References 5 External links // ContestantsTeagan Cramer, 18, from Edmonton, Alberta, despite being an excellent skateboarder, is a young and nervous driver who tries to compensate by jerking the steering wheel back and forth (termed the "wobble").

He drives a black 1988 Ford Ranger. Curt A. Higham, 51, from New Westminster, British Columbia, has been in 46 accidents through his driving career. Part of this may be due to the fact that he is so distracted, often he does not watch the road. He was originally nominated by his husband Vance for Canada's Worst Driver 3, but it was only this year that he was accepted at rehab.

It has a range of meanings but its primary usage is to describe labourers with little control over their employment conditions.Contents1 Spanish usage 2 English usage 2.1 Peonage 3 References 4 See also 5 Further reading // Spanish usageIn its obsolete usage in Spain itself, the word denoted a person who travelled by foot rather than on a horse (caballero). It now means a chess pawn, or a trompo (a kind of rotating toy or top).In Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries, especially those in Latin America, where the hacienda system kept laborers from leaving estates, pe has also a range of meanings related to unskilled or semi-skilled work or manual labour, whether referring to a low-status wage earner in a variety of rural and urban industries (especially a day labourer or a servant); a peasant; a bullfighter's assistant, or, historically, someone subject to forms of unfree labour.English usageThe English words peon and peonage were derived from the Spanish word, and have a variety of meanings related to the Spanish usages, as well as some other meanings. In the English-speaking world in general, the term peon is used colloquially to mean a person with little authority, often assigned unskilled or drudgerous tasks; an underling. In this sense, peon can be used in either a derogatory or self-effacing context.There are several ways in which the word is used:American English: in a historical and legal sense, peon generally only had the meaning of someone working in an unfree labour system (known as peonage). The word often implied debt bondage and/or indentured servitude. See also: Black Codes in the USASouth Asian English: a peon is usually an office boy, an attendant, or an orderly, a person kept around for odd jobs (and, historically, a policeman or foot soldier). In an unrelated South Asian sense, "peon" may also be an alternative spelling for the poon tree (genus Calophyllum) or its wood, especially when used in boat-building. Computing slang: a peon is an "unprivileged user" person without special privileges on a computer system. The opposite is a "superuser." PeonageLabour was in great need to support the expanding agriculture, mining, industrial, and public-work jobs that arose from conquerors settling in the Americas. To account for these jobs a system came about where creditors forced debtors to work for them. This system of involuntary servitude was called peonage.The origin of this form of involuntary servitude goes back to the Spanish conquest of Mexico and African American History when conquistadors forced poor Indians to work for Spanish planters and mine operators. Peonage was prevalent in Spanish America especially in the countries of Mexico, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Peru.Peonage was also common in the South of the United States after the American Civil War. Poor white farmers and African-Americans who could not afford their own land would farm another person's land. This was called sharecropping and initially the benefits were mutual. The land owner would pay for the seeds and tools in exchange for a percentage of the money earned from the crop and a portion of the crop. However, as time passed many landowners began to abuse this system. Instead of the benefits remaining mutual, the landowner would force the tenant farmer to buy seeds and tools from the land owner store which had inflated prices. Other tactics included debiting expenses against the sharecropper's profits after the crop was harvested and miscalculating the net profit from the harvest, thereby keeping the sharecropper in perpetual debt to the landowner. Since the tenant farmers could not offset the costs they were forced into involuntary labor due to the debts they owed the land owner.After the Civil War, the Thirteenth Amendment was added to the United States Constitution, which prohibited involuntary servitude such as peonage for all but convicted criminals. Congress also passed various laws to protect the constitutional rights of Southern blacks, making those who violated such rights by conspiracy, by trespass, or in disguise, guilty of an offense punishable by ten years in prison and civil disability. Unlawful use of state law to subvert rights under the Federal Constitution was made punishable by fine or a year's imprisonment. Until the 1960s, sharecroppers in Southern states were forced to continue working to pay off old debts or to pay taxes. Southern states allowed this in order to preserve sharecropping. In 1921 Georgia Farmer John S. Williams and his black overseer Clyde Manning were convicted in the deaths of 11 blacks working as peons in William's farm. Allegedly Williams was the only white farmer convicted for killing...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about exhaust fan computer, china conference system, .

I want to introduct something about Basic Central Door Locking System. 1. Basic central door locking without actuators 2. Compatible with car original central locking 3. Fixing code (learning code for option) 4. Easy installation for original locking upda (Redirected from EXO)The Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) is a particle physics experiment searching for double beta decay of Xenon-136. The experiment uses a large amount of xenon, isotopically enriched in xenon-136. This isotope is theorized to undergo ordinary double beta decay (with the emission of two neutrinos) to barium-136, though past experiments have only placed limits on the half-life.If neutrinoless double beta decay is detected for the first time, it will be definitive proof of the Majorana nature of neutrinos. EXO intends to measure the effective Majorana neutrino mass (if it exists) with a sensitivity close to 0.01 eV . The actual measurement will be the rate of events, which is equivalent to a measurement of the half-life. Currently only lower limits exist for both the 2-neutrino and neutrinoless double beta decay modes of Xenon 136. Observation of the 2-neutrino mode does not provide information about neutrinos, though it is interesting for nuclear theory. Measurement of the half-life of the neutrinoless mode can be converted to an effective neutrino mass using calculated nuclear matrix elements. If the neutrinoless mode is not seen, a lower limit can be placed on the half life, which corresponds to an upper limit on the neutrino mass.If a limit on the effective neutrino mass is placed at the 0.01 eV mass range, it answers the question of the ordering of neutrino masses. While the differences between neutrino masses is known, it is not known which neutrino is the heaviest. The effective neutrino mass is dependent on the lightest neutrino mass in such a way that a limit at the 0.01 eV level indicates the neutrino masses lie in the normal hierarchy.EXO currently consists of two facets: a 200-kilogram liquid TPC referred to as 'EXO-200' and R&D efforts into a ton-scale xenon experiment. While EXO-200 serves as a testing ground for liquid Xenon techniques, the ton-scale experiment may take a different form.Contents1 EXO-200 2 Ton Scale EXO 3 External links 4 References // EXO-200EXO-200 uses a cylindrical time projection chamber (TPC) design in order to gather information about the decay. Xenon is a scintillator, so the prompt light provides time information of the event. A large electric field is set up to drive ionization electrons to wires for their collection. The difference in time between the light and the first ionization collection determines the z coordinate of the event, while a grid of wires determines the radial and angular coordinates. Scintillation light is collected by avalanche photodiodes (APDs). EXO-200 has been designed with a goal of less than 40 events per year within two sigma of the Q value. In order to accomplish this, all materials were selected and screened based on radiopurity. Originally the vessel was to be made of teflon, but the final design of the vessel uses thin, ultra-pure copper. The relocation of EXO-200 from Stanford to WIPP began in the summer of 2007. Further assembly and commissioning is expected to continue to the end of 2008 with data taking beginning in 2009. Photos of the EXO-200 laboratory and cryostat installed underground at the WIPP site are shown here.The EXO-200 cryostat installed underground at WIPP.The EXO-200 cleanrooms installed underground at WIPP.Ton Scale EXOA ton scale experiment must overcome many backgrounds. The EXO collaboration is exploring many possibilities to do so, including barium tagging in liquid xenon. Any double beta decay event will leave behind a daughter barium ion, while backgrounds, such as radioactive impurities or neutrons, will not. Requiring a barium ion to be present at the location of the event eliminates all backgrounds. Tagging of a single ion of barium has been demonstrated and progress has been made on a method for extracting ions out of the liquid xenon. One method is using a probe that freezes a layer of xenon, containing the ion, onto its tip . Tagging of barium in gaseous xenon is also being developed.External linksEXO web site References^ "Detection of very small Neutrino Masses in double-beta decay using laser tagging " ^ Particle Data Group Review: Neutrinoless Double-beta decay ^ "A liquid xenon ionization chamber in an all-fluoropolymer vessel" ^ "Systematic study of trace radioactive impurities in candidate construction materials for EXO-200" ^ "EXO project equipment successfully placed underground at WIPP" ^ "A microfabricated sensor for thin dielectric layers" Categories: Particle experiments(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about network dvr system, DVD Storage System, .

Please improve this article or discuss the issue on the talk page.Mrs. Bill Stagg of Pie Town, New Mexico with her patchwork and embroidery quilt that displays all the United States state flowers and birds, October 1940.Quilting (stitching together layers of padding and fabric) is as old as ancient Egypt if not older and whole cloth quilts were very common trade goods in wealthy circles in Europe and Asia going back as far as the 15th century.The earliest surviving quilt is from approximately the first century BC to the second century AD. It was found in a Mongolian cave and is a quilted linen carpet. It is housed in the Saint Petersburg department of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Archaeology Section.Piecing fabric together is also very old. It was more often used for clothing but also occasionally for decorative objects like this exquisite pieced pillow from the 15th century.The making of pieced quilts made up of cut pieces of fabric sewn in block form with the blocks then sewn together to make the quilt is a more recent development. Pieced block quilts, often called patchwork quilt, did not become the dominant form of quilt making until the mid-19th century, and still is not the traditional form in Provence, Wales, and parts of India.In this article "piecing" refers to the sewing together of fabric to create the quilt top. "Quilting" refers to stitching the three layers of fabric together; the quilt top, batting (also called wadding) in the center, and the fabric backing.Contents1 Quilting at the dawn of the nineteenth century 1.1 Whole cloth quilt 1.2 Broderie perse quilts 1.3 Medallion quilts 2 Changes in quiltmaking during the mid nineteenth century 3 Quilting for the cause in the United States during the Civil War era 3.1 The movement to free the slaves and the role of quilts 3.2 Quilts to warm the soldiers and quilts to raise money for the war 4 Quilting During the last decades of the 19th century, the Victorian Era 4.1 The Crazy Quilting Fad 4.2 Traditional Quilts Were Still Made 5 Notes 6 Sources and further reading 6.1 Books 6.2 Articles 6.3 External links // Quilting at the dawn of the nineteenth centuryQuilt making was uncommon in America in the late eighteenth century and early years of the nineteenth. Most women were busy spinning, weaving and sewing in order to clothe their family. Commercial blankets or woven coverlets were a more economical bedcovering for most people. Only the wealthy had the leisure time for quilt making so Colonial quilting was done by only a few.Obviously quilts were not made of left over scraps or worn clothing as a humble bedcovering during this period. Instead they were decorative items that displayed the fine needlework of the maker.Whole cloth quilts, broderie perse and medallion quilts were the styles of quilts made during the early 1800s.Whole cloth quiltQuilts made of a solid piece of fabric are referred to as Whole Cloth Quilts. The three layers of top, batting and backing were quilted together. The quilting itself became the decoration.Both wool and cotton solid color quilts and white quilts were made during this period. The white ones are sometimes called "whitework".A few were made with a simple overall quilting design but many were works of art with beautiful quilting including feathers, flowers and other natural motifs. Some were made even more exquisite by a method called trapunto. Trapunto is the technique of slipping extra stuffing into certain areas of a quilt to bring out the quilting in that area. For example trapunto can make the area inside a feather or flower making that part of the quilt a little thicker. Women were proud of fine and even quilt stitches in these quiltsBroderie perse quiltsBroderie perse refers to the applique of cut out motifs from printed fabric onto a solid background. This form of quilt making has been done since the 18th century. The popular printed fabric during this period was chintz imported from India.Printed fabric was expensive even for those who were well off. By cutting out birds, flowers and other motifs from printed fabric and sewing them onto a large homespun cloth a beautiful bedspread could be made. The technique was also used on some early medallion quilts as in the example linked below.Broderie Perse bedcoverings were usually used on the best bed or sometimes only when guests were staying in the home.Medallion quiltsMedallion quilts are made around a center. The center was sometimes a solid piece of large scale fabric like a toile or a Tree of Life, an appliqued motif or a large pieced star or other pieced pattern.

This is in effect on weekdays from 6:30 p.m. to the end of the service day, and all day Saturday, Sunday, and holidays.Fare classesThere are two classes of fares on TransLink: adult and concession. Concession fares are less expensive than the adult fare. They are available for children (ages 5 to 13), secondary students (ages 14 to 19, with a TransLink GoCard), seniors (ages 65 and up), and disabled patrons (with a valid HandyCard). Children four years old and younger ride free when accompanied by an adult.A GoCard is a TransLink ID used by high school students in Metro Vancouver to travel on TransLink at the concession rate. Students must present this card or pay the full adult fare. GoCards are often used by high school students as ID cards until they get their drivers license. GoCards utilize the yearbook pictures taken at the high school and are often customized with the school's picture or logo.

I want to introduct something about . Vidas de Fuego ("Lives of Fire") is the name of a fictional telenovela that is actually a show-within-a-show, where it is featured in the American dramedy series Ugly Betty. The series is watched by the Suarez family at home, mostly by the main character's father, Ignacio, and sister, Hilda. The telenovela takes places at the wealthy cattle ranch of the Rivera family, where the priest and maid are secret lovers and a soccer player is seduced by his privileged stepmother. Contents1 Production 2 Plot 2.1 Part 1 2.2 Part 2 2.3 Part 3 2.4 Part 4 2.5 Part 5 2.6 Part 6 3 Trivia 4 Cast 5 References 6 See also // ProductionA clip of each chapter of "Vidas de Fuego" is aired in episodes of Ugly Betty. During the clips, English subtitles are shown while the actors speak Spanish. The full chapters, which are approximately two to four minutes long, are dubbed in English on ABC's website. The first webisode debuted on ABC's website on November 24, 2006, and each consecutive episode was added every Thursday thereafter. In addition, each episode was also available via Verizon Wireless's V Cast the Thursday after it debuted on the website. The entire mini-telenovela lasted six chapters and was succeeded by "Muchas Muchachas.""Vidas de Fuego" was filmed in Mexico and starred Mexican telenovela actors. The chapters were written by Ugly Betty staff writers Veronica Becker and Sarah Kucserka. The pair also wrote episode 10, "Fake Plastic Snow".PlotPart 1The story begins with Esmeralda, a maid, and Pedro, a local priest, passionately kissing. Esmeralda suddenly slaps Pedro. The camera pans back to show Esmeralda is pregnant. She tells him she plans to give her child the name of its father -- the priest. She asks him to run away with her. Pedro wishes the world were as sweet as Esmeralda. Eva, a nun and Esmeralda's twin, enters the room suddenly, stating she wasn't aware that Esmeralda was there. Pedro states he is visiting and excuses himself. Eva points out Esmeralda's growing belly, but Esmeralda tells her the lady of the house believes she is fat and lazy. Eva states she can help if she knew who the father was. Esmeralda cries stating she cannot reveal his identity.Part 2Eva secretly enters Pedro's room and begins looking for a love letter to prove Pedro is the father of Esmeralda's baby. When she searches his desk, however, she finds a shocking newspaper clipping. In the church's confessional, Galo, a soccer player admits to Pedro that he is in love with Eva. Later, Eva confronts Pedro with the newspaper clipping, which shows he is really Ramon Castillo, a thief and murderer. Pedro says he did the crimes to help a woman. Eva believes the woman is Esmeralda, but he replies it is actually another woman.Part 3Continuing the conversation from the previous chapter, Eva demands to know the identity of the other woman. Pedro tells her it is not her business to know. She threatens to reveal his identity, but he counters by threatening to transfer her to a convent in the desert. Afterward, Galo is watching a soccer game in the living room while Esmeralda is cleaning, when his stepmother, Sofia, enters the room in a sexy bathing suit. She seductively asks him to accept her as part of the family and call her "mama". Pedro enters the living room as Sofia leaves. He gives Esmeralda an envelope of money from Eva full of money. Esmeralda accuses him of taking the money from the church coffers because her insticts tell her he's a thief. Pedro convinces her it is not true and then kisses her.Part 4Patricia, Galo's mother and the former lady of the house, arrives to pick up Galo for church. At the same time, Sofia enters the room. Patricia chides Sofia for her sinful ways, but Sofia responds by seductively revealing her bathing suit to Galo. In Eva's room, Esmeralda seeks her sister's comfort. However, she still refuses to tell Eva who the father of her baby is. Eva informs Esmeralda that she knows Pedro is the father, as well as a thief and murderer. Esmeralda refuses to believe it is true. In a hallway at the church, Patricia takes Pedro aside to talk. Meanwhile, Eva seduces Galo, and they begin kissing passionately. It is implied that they made love.Part 5Galo enters the room of the sleeping Eva, hoping for a kiss when she wakes. Eva tells him that she made a mistake. Galo confesses his love for her, but she tells him that they can't see each other any more. Galo responds that he will never see her again. Before he leaves, Eva stops him and asks for his soccer ball. Later, Esmeralda finds Pedro in the church hallway. Pedro tells her they cannot be seen together for their sake and the sake of their child. When he touches her belly, a soccer ball falls out of her dress.

Bio Cleansing & Moisturizing Loti (Redirected from Hand-stripping)A Newfoundland dog lying next to its combed-out seasonal undercoat.Dog grooming is hygienic care given to a dog, or a process by which the dog's physical appearance is enhanced for showing or other types of competition. A person who earns their living grooming dogs is known as a groomer.Contents1 Reasons for grooming 2 Tools used for grooming 3 Bathing 4 Hair removal 4.1 Clipping 4.2 Stripping 5 Nail trimming 6 References // Reasons for groomingGrooming is an important part of dog care. Depending on the breed, age and health of the dog, grooming may be a daily activity. Many breeds require significantly less grooming than this, but regular grooming helps to ensure the dog is healthy and comfortable. It is important to note, while many dogs shed, others such as the Poodle, do not shed (see Moult). Instead, their coat grows much like human hair, and requires trimming.The main reasons for daily grooming include:improved health of the skin and coat decreases the chance of various health problems such as thrush, scratches, and other skin problems cleans the dog allows the groomer to check the dog's health, such as looking for cuts, heat, swelling, lameness, or a change in temperament (such as depression) which could indicate the dog is sick helps to form a relationship between dog and owner Optional additional options that some dog groomers provide include services such as colouring dogs fur and painting dogs nails. They may also sell products for dogs fur and other products such as clothes.[citation needed]Tools used for groomingVarious types of currycombsCurry or Currycomb: A tool made of rubber or plastic with short "teeth." The tool is rubbed or "curried" in a circular motion to loosen dirt, hair, and other detritus, plus stimulate the skin to produce natural oils. Metal currycombs are also available, but are designed for use on show cattle.A shedding bladeShedding blade: for grooming certain types of harsh coats, a metal shedding blade with short, dull teeth is used to remove dead hair. The shedding blade is not used to cut the hair.Scissors and Clippers: used to remove hair on certain types of coats or in sensitive areas.BathingDogs can be bathed by being wet down with a garden hose using a hand-held shower head, or with water from a bucket. Oftentimes, one bath will not make a dog truly clean. A second bath if excellent to ensure the entire body has been cleaned. Many types of shampoos and conditioners formulated for dogs are available, however, using a shampoo without mixing it with water may be a little strong for a dog who's just getting a touch-up bath. If your dog isn't filthy, add half water to your shampoo to make it easier on the dog and to make sure it rinses entirely. If not rinsed completely, it may become irritating to the dog. Most dogs do not require frequent bathing: too-frequent shampooing can strip the hair coat of natural oils and cause it to dry out.Hair removalThe coats of many breeds require trimming, cutting, or other attention. Styles vary by breed and discipline. While some hair removal has its origins in practical purposes, much is based on the taste of the owner, whether or not the dog will be shown, and what work the dog does.ClippingStrippingThe coats of Border Terriers must be stripped. Here an unstripped adult Border Terrier (left) is shown with a puppy.The body of this adult Border Terrier has been stripped.Stripping or hand-stripping is the process of pulling the dead hair out of the coat of a non-shedding dog, either by using a stripping knife or the fingers. A hard, wiry coat has a cycle where it starts growing and then sheds as it reaches maximum length. Hand-stripping coordinates the shedding and makes room for a new coat to grow.Nail trimmingNail trimming is absolutely necessary for maintaining good health. If a dog's nails are allowed to grow, they will curl over into a spiral shape; walking will become increasingly painful to the dog as they grow out. Uncut nails may curl so far that they pierce the paw pad, leading to infection and debilitating pain. If one does not trim a dog's nails on a monthly basis the quick will grow along with the nail, making it nearly impossible to cut properly. Owners may choose to trim nails themselves or may opt to take their pet to a groomer or veterinarian.References^ "Hand Stripping the Wire or Broken Coated Dog". http://www.harborside.com/~laurelt/handstrip.htm.

I want to introduct something about Kitchen Cabinet Vega. 15 mm MDF panels,UV cromed Varnish, tempered glasses, various colors, Kitchen Cabinet Ve For other uses, see Trestle (disambiguation).A folding-leg trestle tableA trestle table (also known as a folding table or card table) is an item of furniture comprising two frame-based legs (the trestles) over which a board or tabletop is placed. It is the earliest form of table, after the basic pedestal-style table known to be used in ancient times, and was a common structure in ancient Rome, when it was made primarily of stone or marble. By the Middle Ages the trestle table was often little more than loose boards over trestle legs for ease of assembly and storage. It remained the most common form of table until the 16th century, when the basic trestle design gave way to stronger frame-based structures such as gateleg and refectory tables. Ease of assembly and storage has made it the ideal occasional table, and it remains a popular form of dining table, as those seated are not so inconvenienced as they might be with the more usual arrangement of a fixed leg at each corner.Contents1 Construction and uses 2 Trivia 3 See also 4 References 5 External links // Construction and usesIn general, modern use of the trestle table is as a utilitarian, portable work surface. Much favoured by professional decorators, it typically comprises two or more trestles often collapsible, folding or height-adjustable; similar to the woodworker's sawhorse supporting a plain, lightweight, wooden tabletop, often little more than a cheap flush panel door.A second, equally common form, often used in school dining rooms, utilises a folding-leg construction similarly valued for its portability and easy storage. In this case a basic tubular steel framework is employed, with the tabletop a combination of metal and plywood laminate.Trestle Tables are featured in Hardcore Professional Wrestling matches.Trestle tables also figure prominently in the traditional Americana style of household furnishings, usually accompanied by spindle-backed chairs. The trestles in this case are normally of much higher quality, often made of oak and braced with a stretcher beam using a keyed tenon through the centre of each trestle. These typically support a high-quality waxed oak tabletop.TriviaThe decorator's trestle table is acknowledged as the basis of the pseudonym adopted by Robert Tressell, a decorator-turned-author, for his novel The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists, published in 1910.See alsoRefectory table Table (furniture) Trestle desk References^ Britannica.com/Table ^ "The Dictionary of Art", Jane Turner, Grove 1996 p.217 ^ Gordon Campbell, The Grove Encyclopedia of Decorative Arts Vol 2, Oxford University Press US (2006) p411 ^ http://www.lifetime.net.au/Hiten.htm Example of folding leg construction ^ http://www.shaker.net/html/trestle.html Examples of modern trestle table and chairs ^ http://www.oldandsold.com/articles03/hf1.shtml Americana-style trestle table External linksExample of an authentic trestle dining table requiring no tools for assembly (multiple photos).

First fielded in 1963, it is in many ways similar to the earlier Soviet PT-76. However, contrary to the popular belief, it does have some essential differences from the PT-76 in the vehicle's waterjet propulsion system, etc. It is also known under its industrial designation, WZ211.Contents1 Development history 2 Description 3 Service History 4 Combat History 5 Models 6 Variants 7 Operators 8 References 9 External links // Development historyThe Chinese obtained a few PT-76 amphibious light tanks in mid 1950s. In October 1958, the PLA decided to develop an indigenous amphibious tank based on the PT-76 design. The development program was carried out by 201 Institute and the 615 Factory. A prototype known as WZ221 (Type 60) was built and tested in 1959, but the design suffered from a number of problems including engine overheating. The PLA wasn't satisfied with the performance of the vehicle, which led to the development of an improved version. It was jointly developed by Military Engineering Institute (MEI) and the No. 60 Research Institute of Fifth Ministry of Machine Building. The prototype was completed in 1962 and was sent to Norinco Factory 615, the Shaanxi Weiyang Diesel Engine Plant (????????), for continued research. After it later passed the extensive trials (mostly dealing with crossing river, lake and sea water obstacles), the amphibious light tank was finally approved for design finalization in April 1963, and was officially designated Type 63.Because of continuing tension with Taiwan, the PRC felt the need to upgrade its fleet of amphibious tanks as the original Type 63 was rapidly becoming obsolete and incapable of facing modern tanks. To prepare for a possible amphibious assault on Taiwan Island, the PLA requested a new amphibious tank that can be launched from tank landing ships over 10 kilometres offshore and reach the shore at a high swimming speed of 14 kilometres per hour. This improved mobility would reduce the risk to PLA Navy ships from enemy missiles, aircraft, ships, speedboats and mines and increase the survivability of the tank in the amphibious assault stage. The new version was designated Type 63A.DescriptionChinese Type 63-I amphibious light tank seen from the front right at the China People's Revolution Military Museum.Type 63 has a typical tank layout: steering compartment at the front, fighting compartment in the center and the engine compartment in the back. Although it is externally similar to PT-76 it has some essential differences from its Soviet equivalent. Instead of a three-man crew on the PT-76, the Type 63 has a four-man crew for better efficiency. Unlike in the PT-76 where the driver's station is located in the center of the front of the hull, the type 63 has the driver's station located on the left hand side of the front of the hull. The driver has a round hatch with three periscope vision blocks over his station.

The length ranges from just above the knee to touching the ankle. When it is about 5 cm (2 inches) above the ankle it is called tea length and when it is almost touching the ankle it is called ballerina length, although ballerina length dresses usually fall into the evening gown category.At semi-formal occasions, less elaborate, shorter-length cocktail dresses may be worn, when gentlemen are in dark suits. Prior to the mid 20th century this type of dress was known as 'late afternoon'. When gentlemen are in business suits, ladies also wear dress suits or "good" afternoon skirt and dresses.By the 1980s a dress was considered to be cocktail less by where the hem fell, but more by the level of sumptuousness the garment attained.In the mid-20th century, some couturiers began describing full-skirted cocktail gowns as "dancing costumes". These are suitable for formal dances but not for balls, or other white tie affairs, where ball gowns are worn.See also: Little black dressExternal linksCocktail dresses from the collection of the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa v?d?eClothingMaterialsCloth Denim Down Fur Leather Nylon Polyester Spandex SilkTopsBlouse Crop top Dress shirt Halterneck Henley shirt Hoodie Jersey Polo shirt Shirt Sleeveless shirt Sweater T-shirt TurtleneckTrousers / PantsBell-bottoms Bermuda shorts Bondage pants Boxer shorts Capri pants Cargo pants Culottes Cycling shorts Jeans Jodhpurs Overall Parachute pants Shorts Sweatpants WindpantsSkirtsBallerina skirt Hobble skirt Jean skirt Job skirt Leather skirt Kilt Poodle skirt Prairie skirt Miniskirt Slip Skort TrainDressesBall gown Cocktail dress Evening gown Gown Jumper dress Little black dress Petticoat Sari Sundress Tea gown Wedding dressSuits / UniformsAcademic dress Black tie Clerical clothing Court dress Gymslip Morning dress Pantsuit Red Sea rig Scrubs Stroller Tuxedo Lab coat White tie Tang suit Mao suitOuterwearAbaya Academic gown Anorak Apron Blazer Cloak Coat Duffle coat Frock coat Jacket Hoodie Men's undergarments Opera coat Overcoat Pea coat Poncho Raincoat Redingote Robe Shawl Shrug Sleeved blanket Top coat Trench coat Greatcoat Vest Waistcoat WindbreakerAccessoriesBelt Bow tie Handbag Chaps Gaiters Gloves Earring Sunglasses Necklace Belly chain Leg warmer Leggings Stocking Necktie Scarf Suspenders TightsFootwearAthletic shoe Boot Dress shoe Hosiery Pump Sandal Shoe Slipper SockHeadwearBalaclava Cap Hat Helmet Hijab Hood Mantilla Niqab Sombrero Turban Veil FascinatorNightwearBabydoll Blanket sleeper Negligee Nightgown Nightshirt Nightcap Peignoir Pajamas Slip nightgownSpecial needsAdaptive clothing Adult diaper Locking clothing BathrobeClothing partsBack closure Buckle Button Collar Cuff Fly Neckline - Waistline - Hemline Hook-and-eye Lapel Pocket Shoulder pad Sleeve Snap Strap - Shoulder strap Zipper Elastic VelcroNational costumeAbaya Aboyne dress b ba d t? than Barong Tagalog Bunad Dashiki Dhoti Dirndl Djellaba Galabeya Hanbok Hanfu Jellabiya Jilb?b Kente cloth Kilt Kimono Lederhosen Qipao Sampot Sarafan Sari Sarong Scottish dressHistorical garmentsBanyan Bedgown Bodice Braccae Breeching Breeches Brunswick Chemise Chiton Chlamys Doublet Exomis Farthingale Frock Himation Hose Houppelande Jerkin Justacorps Palla Peplos Polonaise Smock-frock Stola Toga TunicHistory and surveysAfrica Ancient Greece Ancient Rome Ancient world Anglo-Saxon Byzantine Clothing terminology Dress code Early Medieval Europe Formal wear Han China History of clothing and textiles History of Western fashion series (1100s-2000s) Sumptuary law Timeline of clothing and textiles technology Undergarments Vietnam Women wearing pantsSee alsoLingerie Costume FashionThis clothing-related article is a stub.

The problems started when the truck carrying the band's equipment broke down en-route to the venue, and the band did not have enough time to perform a proper sound check before the concert.Additionally, vinyl pressings of the album were of such poor quality that ELO's management eventually filed a lawsuit against the production company for compensation. The garish gatefold sleeve of the original album also contributed to its poor reception. The front cover showed a cartoony 50's-era horror film mob running in terror from an unseen source of light, with the album's title scrawled across the sleeve. The inside held distorted photos of the band performing onstage.Ultimately, both ELO's UK and US labels decided against issuing The Night the Light Went On (in Long Beach). It only achieved "legitimate" release in Germany and a handful of other countries, although it was eventually issued in the UK in 1986. It was never released in the US.RestorationA 1990s CD remastering and reissue corrected the poor sound quality of the original album and restored several songs to their full-length versions. It was discovered that the original LP pressing had been mastered using an inferior copy of the concert (according to the CD's liner notes, the tape used had been marked 'Rough Mix, Do Not Use'), hence the muddy sound.

Soft soldering is characterized by the melting point of the filler metal, which is below 400 (752). The filler metal used in the process is called solder.Soldering is distinguished from brazing by use of a lower melting-temperature filler metal; it is distinguished from welding by the base metals not being melted during the joining process. In a soldering process, heat is applied to the parts to be joined, causing the solder to melt and be drawn into the joint by capillary action and to bond to the materials to be joined by wetting action. After the metal cools, the resulting joints are not as strong as the base metal, but have adequate strength, electrical conductivity, and water-tightness for many uses. Soldering is an ancient technique mentioned in the Bible and there is evidence that it was employed up to 5000 years ago in Mesopotamia.Contents1 Applications 2 Solders 3 Flux 4 Basic soldering techniques 4.1 Methods 4.2 Electronic components (PCBs) 4.3 Pipe/mechanical soldering 4.4 Stained glass soldering 5 Desoldering and resoldering 6 Lead-free electronic soldering 7 Soldering defects 8 Tools 9 See also 10 References 11 External links // ApplicationsOne of the most frequent applications of soldering is assembling electronic components to printed circuit boards (PCBs). Another common application is making permanent but reversible connections between copper pipes in plumbing systems. Joints in sheet metal objects such as food cans, roof flashing, rain gutters and automobile radiators have also historically been soldered, and occasionally still are. Jewelry components are assembled and repaired by soldering. Small mechanical parts are often soldered as well. Soldering is also used to join lead came and copper foil in stained glass work. Soldering can also be used to effect a semi-permanent patch for a leak in a container cooking vessel.Guidelines to consider when soldering is that since soldering temperatures are so low a soldered joint has limited service at elevated temperatures. Solders generally do not have much strength so the process should not be used for load bearing members.Some examples of solder types and their applications are tin-lead (general purpose), tin-zinc for joining aluminium, lead-silver for strength at higher than room temperature, cadmium-silver for strength at high temperatures, zinc-aluminium for aluminium and corrosion resistance, and tin-silver and tin-bismuth for electronics.SoldersMain article: SolderSoldering filler materials are available in many different alloys for differing applications. In electronics assembly, the eutectic alloy of 63% tin and 37% lead (or 60/40, which is almost identical in performance to the eutectic) has been the alloy of choice. Other alloys are used for plumbing, mechanical assembly, and other applications.A eutectic formulation has several advantages for soldering; chief among these is the coincidence of the liquidus and solidus temperatures, i.e. the absence of a plastic phase. This allows for quicker wetting out as the solder heats up, and quicker setup as the solder cools. A non-eutectic formulation must remain still as the temperature drops through the liquidus and solidus temperatures. Any differential movement during the plastic phase may result in cracks, giving an unreliable joint. Additionally, a eutectic formulation has the lowest possible melting point, which minimizes heat stress on electronic components during soldering.Lead-free solders are suggested anywhere children may come into contact with (since children are likely to place things into their mouths), or for outdoor use where rain and other precipitation may wash the lead into the groundwater. Common solder alloys are mixtures of tin and lead, respectively:63/37: melts at 183 (361.4 ) (eutectic: the only mixture that melts at a point, instead of over a range) 60/40: melts between 183190 (361374 ) 50/50: melts between 185215 (365419 ) Lead-free solder alloys melt around 250 (482 ), depending on their composition.For environmental reasons, 'no-lead' solders are becoming more widely used. Unfortunately most 'no-lead' solders are not eutectic formulations, making it more difficult to create reliable joints with them. See complete discussion below; see also RoHS.Other common solders include low-temperature formulations (often containing bismuth), which are often used to join previously-soldered assemblies without un-soldering earlier connections, and high-temperature formulations (usually containing silver)...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about ovulation test strips, stainless steel shot, .

I want to introduct something about DC Traction Foot Motor. Place of Origin: China Brand Name: supermotor Power: DC Features: 1) Power: 3kW, 4kW 2) Voltage: 36V, 48V 3) High performance and low noise The sterndrive, or stern drive, is also called inboard/outboard (I/O), and is a form of marine propulsion. The engine(or upper unit) is located inboard just forward of the transom (stern) and delivers power via a shaft that goes through the transom to the drive unit (often referred to as the outdrive or lower unit) located outside the hull, which resembles the bottom half of an outboard. This unit contains the gearing for the system and carries the propeller. The boat is steered by pivoting this unit, just like with an outboard motor, and no rudder is needed.The engine itself is usually the same as those used in true inboard systems, historically the most popular of which being marinised versions of Chevrolet and Ford V-8 automotive engines. In Europe diesel engines are more popular with up to 370hp available with Volvo Pentas D6A-370. The most popular brands of sterndrive are Volvo Penta part of the Volvo Group and MerCruiser, produced by Brunswick Corporation's Mercury Marine, which also manufactures outboard motors. Mercruiser have a slightly larger market share in the USA but in Europe Volvo Penta have a very large market share around the 80% mark. In 1999 Brunswick was sued by Volvo Penta for monopolizing the stern drive business in the USA.HistoryThe history of stern drive power begins in 1948, when Charlie Strang mated an aluminum car racing engine to the lower unit of an outboard motor, in order to create a marine propulsion system more powerful than the outboard motors available at the time. The system would be patented ten years later by Jim Wynne. During the 1950s, both engineers worked at Mercury Marine under Carl Kiekhaefer, who was initially dismissive of and opposed to the idea of sterndrives, but would later capture 80% of the market. In 1958, Wynne left Kiekhaefer and in less than 90 days "invented" the stern drive. The first commercial introduction of sterndrives was by Volvo Penta at the 1959 New York Motor Boat Show. Kiekhaefer would introduce the first MerCruiser outdrive in 1961 at the Chicago Boat Show. By 1962, 16 manufacturers were producing sterndrives. There was also the Outboard Marine Company (O.M.C.); however, due to several patent wars, O.M.C. ceased production.Relative MeritsAdvantages of the sterndrive system versus outboards include higher available horsepower per engine and a clean transom with no cutouts for the outboard installation and no protruding powerhead, which makes for easier ingress and egress for pleasure boat passengers and for easier fishing.Advantages of the sterndrive system versus inboards include simpler engineering for boatbuilders, eliminating the need for them to design propshaft and rudder systems; also, a significant space savings with the engine mounted all the way aft, freeing up the boat's interior volume for occupancy space. This is of particular significance to consumers who are interested in "pocket cruisers," boats which have amenities like a head, a galley, and separate sleeping quarters in a boat less than 30 feet in length.Performance with sterndrives is better than inboards, since the propeller is pushing the boat at an optimum angle for speed or acceleration depending on the trim angle of the drive. (Inboards have an inherent loss of propulsion force because of the angle of the prop shaft.)The main disadvantages of sterndrives versus straight inboards is that they are more exposed. There are hoses, rubber bellows and oil lines in the water which can be damaged. There are also more components in the water which are exposed to corrosion.Maintenance on I/Os is more complicated than outboards in several ways. For example, oil changes can require complicated pumping mechanisms, and engine repairs are often far more complicated than outboards because of incredibly tight spaces in the engine compartment. In some boats the entire engine must be removed to perform otherwise trivial repairs whereas, with an outboard, all one must do is pop off the cover.With both inboards and stern drives there is a fire and explosion hazard from gasoline fuel vapors within the engine compartment. Typically these boats must run a blower for several minutes prior to starting the engine, and when idling or moving below cruise speed. The blower exchanges the air within the engine compartment with fresh outside air.Because of their practical advantages and attractive cost, sterndrives have become extremely popular especially for use in pleasure boats, and there are many models of boats for which sterndrive power is the only available propulsion offered.See alsoKitchen rudder Categories: Propellers Boats Marine propulsionHidden categories: Articles lacking sources from October 2006 All articles lacking sources(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about ac induction motor, used performance engines, .

I want to introduct something about . PrevostFounded1924HeadquartersSainte-Claire, Quebec, Canada IndustryManufacturingProductsCoach BusesParentVolvo GroupWebsiteOfficial sitePrevost is a Quebec, Canada-based manufacturer of touring coaches and bus shells for high-end motorhomes and specialty conversions.The company now owns Nova Bus and in turn is owned by Volvo Bus Corporation.Contents1 History 2 Current Products 3 Former products 4 Notes 5 External links // HistoryThe company was first founded in 1924 by Eugene Prevost, a cabinet maker specializing in the production of church pews and school furniture, who was asked to build a body for a brand new REO truck chassis. Between 1937-1939 Provost Car's first bus manufacturing plant was built. Initially the vehicles were built around a wooden frame but in 1945 this was changed so that the bodies were all made of metal.The company was acquired by Paul Normand in 1957. In 1969, two American businessmen, Thomas B. Harbison and William G. Campbell, formed a partnership with Andr Normand, then President of Prevost, to become the company sole owners. These three men, in turn, sold Prevost to Volvo Bus Corporation in 1995.The company now (February 2007) has 1,337 employees and operates six parts and service centers located across North America.The latest models saw the XLII thoroughly revised, now with a longer wheelbase to provide more storage and a smoother ride. This, along with many other changes, marked the beginning of the new X3-45.The flagship H3-45 received some further enhancements in 2006 with GPS and a destination sign made an option. As well as this, the new Delta sound system was also developed to provide improved sound throughout the cabin.For the new EPA 2007 Standards, Prevost now offers an innovative installation of the Diesel Particulate Filter and the Rooftop Diffuser for Increased Safety, Performance, Serviceability and Security. The standard Detroit Diesel has been uprated from 12.7 litres to 14 litres for the model year 2007.For the 2008 model year, Prevost have introduced a new Volvo DH13 Series engine from their parent company as an option to the current Detroit Diesel Series 60 offering. From 2010, the Daimler Automotive Group will no longer sell Detroit Diesel Series engine to companies outside of the corporation including Prevost.A set of new interior colour schemes have been developed for the 2008 model year to provide a modern feel to the interior.

I want to introduct something about Case Storage System. 15 yrs of experiences will assure you the durability, reliability and effectiveness. Case Storage Syst DEC 3000 Model 700 ServerDEC 3000 AXP was the name given to a series of computer workstations and servers, produced from 1992 to around 1995 by Digital Equipment Corporation. The DEC 3000 AXP series formed part of the first generation of computer systems based on the 64-bit Alpha AXP architecture. Supported operating systems for the DEC 3000 AXP series were DEC OSF/1 AXP (later renamed Digital UNIX) and OpenVMS AXP (later renamed OpenVMS).All DEC 3000 AXP models used the DECchip 21064 (EV4) or DECchip 21064A (EV45) processor and inherited various features from the earlier MIPS architecture-based DECstation models, such as the TURBOchannel bus and the I/O subsystem.The DEC 3000 AXP series was superseded in late 1994, with workstation models replaced by the AlphaStation line and server models replaced by the AlphaServer line.Contents1 Models 2 Description 2.1 Memory 2.2 Expansion slots 2.3 Graphics 2.4 I/O subsystem 2.5 SCSI interface 3 Notes 4 References 5 External links // ModelsThere were three DEC 3000 model families, codenamed Pelican, Sandpiper, and Flamingo.

The two modules are connected via a 210-pin connector. The logic in Pelican-based systems are contained the CPU module and system module. The CPU module is a daughterboard that plugs into the system module and contains the CPU and the B-cache (L2 cache).The architecture of the Flamingo- and Sandpiper-based systems is based around a crossbar switch implemented by a ADDR (Address) ASIC, four SLICE (data slice) ASICs and a TC (TURBOchannel) ASIC. These ASICs connect together the various different width buses used in the system, allowing data to be transferred to the different subsystems. PALs were used to implement the control logic. The cache, memory and TURBOchannel controllers, as well as other control logic, is entirely implemented by PALs. Pelican-based systems have an entirely different architecture from the other systems, similar to that of late-model Personal DECstations that they are based on, with a traditional workstation architecture with buses and buffers.MemoryThe Sandpiper and Flamingo used proprietary 100-pin, 40-bit (32 bits plus 8 bits ECC) Fast Page Mode SIMMs with capacities of 2MB, 4MB, 8MB, 16MB or 32MB. These were eight-way interleaved, providing a 256-bit-wide bus to memory. The Sandpiper had two such eight-SIMM banks, for up to 512 MB total system RAM, while the Flamingo had four banks and supported up to 1 GB. In comparison, the Pelican was a budget architecture utilising eight standard 72-pin Fast Page Mode SIMMs that were protected with longword parity instead of ECC, with capacities of 8MB or 32MB, for a total of up to 256MB RAM. These were two-way interleaved, for a 64-bit-wide bus to memory.Expansion slotsThe DEC 3000 AXP series uses the 32-bit TURBOchannel bus running at various speeds, 12.5 MHz in the 300 models, 22.5 MHz in the 400 models and 25 MHz in models 500 to 900. The TURBOchannel bus is provided by an ASIC, which connected it to the SLICE data path ASICs.

(NYSE:PBI) is a Stamford, Connecticut-based manufacturer of software and hardware and a provider of services related to documents, packaging, mailing and shipping, collectively referred to as mailstream. The company has approximately 36,000 employees worldwide. It is one of 87 existing firms that have been members of the S&P 500 since its creation in 1957.Other major U.S. centers of operation include Danbury, Connecticut, Shelton, Connecticut, Troy, New York, and Lanham, Maryland.Contents1 History 2 Research and technology 3 Significant acquisitions 4 Awards and recognition 5 References 6 Further reading 7 External links // HistoryIn 1902, Arthur Pitney patented his first "double-locking" hand-cranked postage-stamping machine, and, with patent attorney Eugene A. Rummler, founded the Pitney Postal Machine Company. In 1908, English emigrant and founder of the Universal Stamping Machine Company Walter Bowes began providing stamp-canceling machines to the United States Postal Service. Bowes moved his operations to Stamford in 1917. A rapid increase in mail volume in 1919 made the Post Office more receptive to metered mail, and Pitney subsequently traveled to meet Bowes. On March 15, 1920, the United States House of Representatives passed a bill authorizing mechanical stamps on First-Class Mail, and on April 23, 1920, the two companies merged to form the Pitney Bowes Postage Meter Company, with the goal of producing a machine that would combine Pitney's "double-locking" counter with Bowes's system for wrapping postage payment, postmarking and cancellation. The United States Post Office approved their postage meter on August 25, 1920.Between 1922 and 1923, the government collected $4,359,070 in postage from the first commercial installations of 400 meters. Pitney Bowes also began to sell their products internationally.In 1938, Walter H. Wheeler, Jr. was named President and Chairman of the Board and would lead the company over the next three decades. In the 1940s, Wheeler boycotted a hotel when it refused to register one African American salesperson, championing a spirit of diversity that still exists today, writing: "Pitney Bowes' worksites will reflect the communities in which we operate."The company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1950. The same year, the National Urban League recognized Pitney Bowes for its leadership in providing job opportunities to African Americans.Pitney Bowes was named to the S&P 500 at the time of its creation in 1957 and joined the Fortune 500 in 1962.In 1968 Pitney Bowes acquired the Monarch Marking System Company, which would produce the first barcode equipment for retail trade use. In 1976, the Pitney Bowes Credit Corporation was formed, providing customers with financing and payment solutions. (Pitney Bowes would continue to grow this line of business, launching the Pitney Bowes Bank in 1996.)In the 1980s, the firm expanded, offering copy machines and facsimile machines, a suite of management services and entering new markets, such as Japan.In the 1990s, Pitney Bowes continued to innovate in the field of digital technologies and software, introducing the AddressRight address & barcode printer (1991), the first in-line weighing and metering system (1992), the first secure digital postage meter (1995), the first ink jet postage meter (1996) and the Digital Document Deliver (D3) platform (1998) which provides message management via hard copy, web, email and fax.Between 2000 and 2007, Pitney Bowes invested $2.5 billion in 83 acquisitions, primarily in software and services businesses including MapInfo, Group 1 Software, PSI Group and Imagitas. The company is known as an industry advocate, and has focused in recent years on advancing postal reform, the USPS Intelligent Mail barcode, transpromo and environmental sustainability.Research and technologyPitney Bowes intellectual property portfolio includes more than 3,500 patents worldwide in areas such as ticketing, cellular phone payment, shipping, laser printing, encryption and mail production and processing.

Portable Partitions are used as a cost effective way to create a classroom or meeting room in existing space. Portable Partitions are used as a convenient sight divider to conceal door openings to restrooms, commercial kitchens, and other backroom areas. Where are Portable Partitions Used?Portable Partitions are commonly used in:Arena Churches/Houses of Worship/Funeral Homes Conference/Convention Centers Government/Corporate offices Hotels/Restaurants Residences Salons and Spas Schools of all levels How are Portable Partitions used in each of the different environments?Arenas:Arena use Portable Partitions to hide food service area, direct traffic, public displays, bulletin boards, and create smaller meeting rooms.Churches/Houses of Worship/Funeral Homes:Portable Partitions are used to create temporary classrooms for religious education in large open rooms such as fellowship halls, multi-purpose rooms or gymnasiums. Since the rooms were designed originally to be open for large gatherings, the most common type of Room Divider is a Portable Partition on casters which can easily be moved from place to place. After class, the Portable Partition is rolled back into its storage area for future use.Conference/Convention Centers:Conference & Convention Centers, by their very nature, are large facilities with wide open internal spaces. Consequently, they often need to be broken down into smaller areas. Portable Partitions provide a quick and efficient means to accomplish this. Some recently build convention centers have used a form of Portable Partition and other flexible materials to divide their space.Governmental Facilities/Corporate Offices:Portable Partitions in Governments and Corporate facilities often use Office Cubicles for their staff and employees. However, due to the required flexibility of some Government facilities, Portable Partitions often are used to create backdrops for meeting spaces that take place in Small Government buildings. They often have multiple heights and lengths and are set up in a line. Others have hinges and allow for flexibility of shapes. These hinged Portable Partitions can create rooms of virtually any size or shape to make several meeting or training rooms within one large space.Hotels/Restaurants:Hotels and Restaurants use two different types of dividers. Commonly, you will see floor-to-ceiling partitions such as operable or accordion walls in Banquet Halls and Meeting spaces. These fixed dividers can be used to divide a banquet room into smaller more quaint facilities. In areas needing more flexibility, Hotels and Restaurants might use Portable Partitions. Portable Partitions are also used to conceal doors to kitchens or restrooms for the viewing public.Residences:Houses, apartments and other residences, use Portable Partitions to divide the space more effectively or as a decorating focus point.Salons and Spas:Salon and Spa use Portable Partitions for creating privacy areas for massage, physical therapy, and other services required reduced visibility.Schools:In schools, Portable Partitions primarily are used to create temporary classrooms for education in large open rooms, such as libraries, media centers, cafeterias or gymnasiums.

Originally it was used only to refer to women's skirts, as men wore a loincloth, called a maro. Nowadays the term is applied to any piece of cloth worn wrapped around the body, worn by males or females. It is related to the Malay sarong, S?moan lavalava, Tongan tupenu and other such garments of the pacific islands such as the islands of Hawai`i, Marquesas, Aotearoa, and Fiji.In contemporary Tahitian the right word is p?reu (singular: te p?reu, plural: te mau p?reu), with the pronunciation of the word with a long a (hold the sound for two beats rather than just one) and the e and u' pronounced separately, rather than slurred into a diphthong. It is not clear where the variant pareo is coming from. It might be an old dialectic variant or an early explorers' misinterpretation. But both terms were already used in the 19th century. Nowadays, however, pareo can be considered as the English-language form of the word (plural pareos), much less likely subject to mispronunciation.The Tahitian p?reu are among the most colourful and bright ones of the Pacific. Originally flower patterns, the hibiscus flowers in particular, or traditional tapa patterns, were printed in bright colours on a cotton sheet of about 90 or 120 cm wide and 180 cm long, made in China. Nowadays they are also made in Tahiti itself and dye painting with varying colours is popular as well.StylesA p?reu can be worn in many ways. Women will usually wrap it around their upperbody, covering it from breasts to above the knees. Either they rely on their breasts that it will not slide down, or they may wrap a corner around their shoulder or their neck. In more traditional surroundings the covering of the upperbody is less important, but the covering of the thighs is. Then it is worn as a longer skirt. Men wear it as a short skirt, or may even make shorts out of it, especially when fishing or working in the bush where freedom of movement of the legs is needed. But during quiet, cooler nights at home, they may wear it as a long skirt too.The ends of the p?reu are normally just tucked in, kept in place by friction only. No pins, magnets or other means are used. Only when as dress worn around the neck or shoulders, ends are knotted together. When it comes loose a few times per day, the wearer will just pull it tight again or rewrap him/herself. Nevertheless when a lot of movement occurs, at heavy work or dancing for example, wearing of a belt over it around the waists is common too. The easy undo is not a burden, rather a blessing. A woman (or man) may start her daily work on a colder morning wearing her p?reu as a long skirt and with a shirt. When it comes loose, the day may have warmed up enough for her to redo it as a shorter skirt. Again, some time later, she may discard her warm shirt and rewrap her p?reu as a dress.Hiva Oa dancers dressed in p?reu around 1909ReferencesHow to wear your sarong - Learn 20 different ways for men and women to tie a pareo. ^ The Dutch geographic magazine De Aarde en haar Volken of 1887 had a few Southseas articles, some of them using p?reu, others pareo.

Its considerably modified British equivalent was broadcast on BBC Two from 1998 until 2002, with its final series broadcast on Five in 2003. The show ran for 12 series, including two 'Extreme' series & 3 World Championships. There were additional series filmed for specific sectors of the global market, including two seasons of Robot Wars Extreme Warriors with U.S. competitors for the TNN network (hosted by Mick Foley), and two seasons of Dutch Robot Wars for distribution in the Netherlands. As well, the fourth season of the UK Robot Wars was brought to the United States on TNN as Robot Wars: Grand Champions in 2002, and hosted by Joanie Laurer.[1]Robot Wars was shown on BBC Two at 6:45PM on Friday evenings then repeated on Sunday Mornings. The Seventh series seen on Five was shown on Sunday evenings.

Approximately one month prior to the event, Thorpe formed a partnership with New York based record company Sm:)e Communications, later Profile Records, who provided additional funding.[1]Between 1995 and 1997, three further Robot Wars events took place in America and, in 1995, Profile Records partnered with production company Mentorn to produce and televise a Robot Wars event in the UK. Mentorn acquired the worldwide television rights from Profile in 1995 after Tom Gutteridge (the head of Mentorn) had seen an amateur tape of a San Francisco event.Gutteridge asked freelance producer Steve Carsey and veteran special effects experts Derek Foxwell and Mat Irvine to create a television format based on the Robot Wars concept. They produced a pilot programme in which a number of Derek Foxwell built combat robots took on three American robots. The pilot convinced the BBC to commission a series. Foxwell was the technical supervisor and senior technical consultant. He wrote the rules and regulations and was in charge of the pit area and the technical team, which scrutineered the robots, got them on and off stage and helped the contestants prepare and repair their robots. Irvine, initially a member of the technical team, served as one of the judges.Profile sought no input or consent from Thorpe before doing this, and this aggravated the already troubled relationship between Thorpe and Profile Records and indirectly spurred legal disagreements surrounding the ownership of the Robot Wars concept. The legal proceedings surrounding these would last until February 6, 2002.[2] Mentorn used Thorpe as a Consultant on the series, however, and the initial series of Robot Wars in the UK was broadcast over six weeks in February and March 1998. It was an immediate hit, with more than 2 million viewers, and a further 27 episodes were commissioned by the BBC that year. 155 episodes were produced in total, and the show was seen in 26 countries. Two series were produced in the US for the TNN (now Spike) network, and a version was also shown on Nickelodeon.

This can be seen in the existing lacquerwares produced, mostly of ritual cups, dishes, and wooden chest boxes with a lacquer finish across the surface. Many of these priceless ancient Chinese or Japanese lacquer artifacts can be found in private collections and museums, such as the Freer Gallery of Art in Washington D.C..Lacquer production was under way in northern Japan by 7,000 BC, as early J?mon were managing various plant resources, suggesting the so-called varnish tree Rhus verniciflua was being managed [1]. In Japan, the art of lacquerware-making came along with Buddhism and other cultural artifacts from China during the 8th century, and "carved lacquerware" came to Japan from Ming Dynasty China during the 14th century.[1]Burmese lacquerwareYun-de is lacquerware in Burmese, and the art is called Pan yun. The lacquer is the sap tapped from the varnish tree Melanorrhoea usitatissima or Thitsee that grows wild in the forests of Myanmar (formerly Burma).[2] It is straw-coloured but turns black on exposure to air. When brushed in or coated on, it forms a hard glossy smooth surface resistant to a degree effects of exposure to moisture or heat.HistoryBayinnaung's conquest and subjugation in 1555-1562 of Manipur, Bhamo, Zinme (Chiang Mai), Linzin (Lan Xang), and up the Taping and Shweli rivers in the direction of Yunnan brought back large numbers of skilled craftsmen into Burma. It is thought that the finer sort of Burmese lacquerware, called Yun, was introduced during this period by imported artisans belonging to the Yun or Laos Shan tribes of the Chiang Mai region.[3]Manufacture and designBurmese lacquerware - a private collectionLacquer vessels, boxes and trays have a coiled or woven bamboostrip base often mixed with horsehair, and the thitsee may be mixed with ashes or sawdust to form a putty-like substance called thayo which can be scuplted.

Shwezawa is a distinctive form in its use of gold leaf to fill in the designs on a black background.[4][5]Palace scenes, scenes from the Jataka tales, and the signs of the Burmese Zodiac are popular designs and some vessels may be encrusted with glass mosaic or semi-precious stones in gold relief.[5] The objects are all handmade and the designs and engraving done free-hand.

The earliest paintings were not representational but ornamental; they consisted of patterns or designs rather than pictures. Stone Age pottery was painted with spirals, zigzags, dots, or animals. It was only during the Warring States Period (403-221 B.C.) that artists began to represent the world around them.Painting in the traditional style is known today in Chinese as gu hu ??, meaning 'national' or 'native painting', as opposed to Western styles of art which became popular in China in the 20th century. Traditional painting involves essentially the same techniques as calligraphy and is done with a brush dipped in black or colored ink; oils are not used. As with calligraphy, the most popular materials on which paintings are made of are paper and silk. The finished work is then mounted on scrolls, which can be hung or rolled up. Traditional painting also is done in albums and on walls, lacquerwork, and other media.There are mainly two techniques in Chinese painting, which areMeticulous - Gong-bi (??) often referred to as "court-style" painting Freehand - Shui-mo (??) loosely termed watercolour or brush painting. The Chinese character "mo" means ink and "shui" means water. This style is also referred to as "xie yi" (??) or freehand style. Artists from the Han (202 BC) to the Tang (618-906) dynasties mainly painted the human figure. Much of what we know of early Chinese figure painting comes from burial sites, where paintings were preserved on silk banners, lacquered objects, and tomb walls. Many early tomb paintings were meant to protect the dead or help their souls get to paradise. Others illustrated the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucius or showed scenes of daily life.Many critics consider landscape to be the highest form of Chinese painting. The time from the Five Dynasties period to the Northern Song period (907-1127) is known as the "Great age of Chinese landscape". In the north, artists such as Jing Hao, Fan Kuan, and Guo Xi painted pictures of towering mountains, using strong black lines, ink wash, and sharp, dotted brushstrokes to suggest rough stone. In the south, Dong Yuan, Ju Ran, and other artists painted the rolling hills and rivers of their native countryside in peaceful scenes done with softer, rubbed brushwork. These two kinds of scenes and techniques became the classical styles of Chinese landscape painting.Contents1 Early Imperial China (221 BCD 220) 2 Period of division (220581) 2.1 Six principles 3 Sui and Tang dynasties (581960) 4 Song and Yuan dynasties (9601368) 5 Late imperial China (13681895) 6 Modern painting 7 Painting since 1979 8 See also 9 References 10 Further reading 11 External links // Early Imperial China (221 BCD 220)In imperial times (beginning with the Eastern Jin Dynasty), painting and calligraphy in China were the most highly appreciated arts in court circles and were produced almost exclusively by amateursristocrats and scholar-officialsho had the leisure time necessary to perfect the technique and sensibility necessary for great brushwork. Calligraphy was thought to be the highest and purest form of painting. The implements were the brush pen, made of animal hair, and black inks made from pine soot and animal glue. In ancient times, writing, as well as painting, was done on silk. However, after the invention of paper in the 1st century CE, silk was gradually replaced by the new and cheaper material. Original writings by famous calligraphers have been greatly valued throughout China's history and are mounted on scrolls and hung on walls in the same way that paintings are.Period of division (220581)Luoshenfu by Gu Kaizhi (344-406 AD)During the Six Dynasties period (220-589), people began to appreciate painting for its own beauty and to write about art. From this time we begin to know about individual artists, such as Gu Kaizhi. Even when these artists illustrated Confucian moral themes such as the proper behavior of a wife to her husband or of children to their parents they tried to make the figures graceful.Six principlesThe "Six principles of Chinese painting" were established by Xie He, a writer, art historian and critic in 5th century China.

I want to introduct something about Flange. The process of welding the pipe with the front-end profiled coupler (Trans Quadro is a manufacturer of bends, hole plugs, reductions, T-pipes and sleeves) can be divided into two phases: the first one comprising the pipe and coupler preparation and the second one being the welding process itself. The pipe and the profiled coupler with planed coupling surfaces are properly aligned and pressed against the heating plate of the welding equipment, what causes formation of fashes (plastic zones). After proper heating of the fashes the tips of the parts being connected have suitable temperature and store suitable quantity of heat. Then the heating plate is removed and the tips are depressed one against another and welded. The process is controlled by maintaining proper pressure in hydraulic cylinders of the actuators. The connecting (welding) phase is subsequently followed by the cooling phase. (Redirected from Proctor's Theatre)F.F.

He is the vice-captain of the Juken Club.Contents1 Character Outline 2 Techniques & Abilities 2.1 Techniques 3 Synopsis 3.1 Manga 3.1.1 F arc 3.1.2 Tournament Arc 4 References // Character OutlineShinichir? Kurei is the vice captain of the Juken Club and a third year student at Todo Academy. Shinichir? is a very respectful and knowledgeable individual, possibly the most intelligent member of the Juken Club. Despite being a third year student, he is very short. He has an odd shaped head and oval eyes; combined with the strange sounds he makes when sucking on his juice box many confuse him with an extraterrestrial at first. He is very knowledgeable and skillful in regards to technology. Despite his respectful nature, it seems he has a perverted side and has been known to take video of the female members changing clothes.Techniques & AbilitiesShinichir?'s fighting skills (if any) are unknown, he seems to be more the team strategist than a fighter. He does however know some kind of martial art as he trains with the group. [1]TechniquesSolar Fist Technique A mock of Dragon Ball's solar flare technique; in actuality he just turns on the high beams of a car and stands in front of it. [2] The purpose of the "technique" is to blind and distract. SynopsisMangaShinichir? was never animated as the anime and OVA's didn't get that far into the storyline. He appears solely in the manga appearing when Souichiro Nagi gets out of the hospital after his fight with Tessen Ishiyumi.F arcHe arrives just as Maya Natsume is yelling at Bob Makihara for taking his injury lightly, and comments many groups has been lost in the crowd after suffering an injury. Bob confuses Shinichir? with an alien, as does Souichiro; trying to capture and videotape him. [3] He introduces himself as the vice-captain of the Juken Club, Maya even points out Aya had told them the other day the club had seven members. Bob and Souichiro notice there are only 6, wondering who the seventh member is. Maya refers to the seventh member as worthless, thus she didn't take the time to introduce him. Souichiro and Bob insist with most of the group members injured he could still be useful. Shinichir? offer to take them to meet the inactive member, but points out it's likely a waste of time.Shinichir? takes the two to meet Kagesada Sugano, but he is usually referred to by his nickname (asshat in the manga, scum in the anime). They walk in right as two girls compete for a date with Kagesada by seeing who can suck a conveniently placed Popsicle to the stick the fastest. Naturally Bob and Souichiro label Kagesada a pervert, and have a knife shoved in their face by one of the girls. None the less Kagesada talks to them, insisting he wants nothing to do with the schools annual election tournament. As a man who looks vaguely like Mitsuomi Takayanagi walks by the window, Kagesada ducks under a desk in fear. Shinichir? repeats that it was pointless, saying Kagesada suffered a life threatening injury when Shin Natsume went nuts and died, he no longer has the will to fight as a result. [4]After Bob and Souichiro mock Kagesada, Kagesada challenges them to a fight that night. When they arrive for the fight, they are met by 4 of Kagesada's "Heavenly Divas" who distract Bob. Souichiro moves on where he is met with an army of women, who on Kagesada's command, strip and then mob him. As the women all pale in comparison to Aya Natsume and Maya, Souichiro just forces his way through. As he approaches Kagesada, Shinichir? hits him in the leg with a baseball bat [5] and Kagesada punches him. Shocked by the power of Kagesada's punch Souichiro hits the ground and two girls hold him down. Kagesada and Shinichir? point out dirty tactics is how Mitsuomi rules the school, and Souichiro obviously can't handle it. To prove them wrong Souichiro over powers the girls, stands up and goes to punch Kagesada (assuming he'd dodge). Kagesada doesn't dodge and ends up knocked out the window, so now the attempt to get more uninjured members just created another injured member.Later as Aya and Souichiro try to head to Kyushu with Mouki Enmi, Shinichir? stows away in Aya's bag on Maya's command. As Aya, Souichiro and Yorihira Tsumuji get cornered by Jushi Mataza Tsumuji and his men, Shinichir? saves them by blinding the enemy with the Solar Fist technique. As they retreat into the forest, Jushi catches up and slaughters Yorihira, Mouki and Shinichir?.

Shots of the band were filmed in the London Aquarium; these were interspersed with short vignettes of people "coming undone" in various ways. These vignettes include a little girl seeing her parents together, an older couple who have survived a flood, an alcoholic and a man who is revealed to be a cross-dresser. Also seen in the video is a woman struggling underwater to break free of the chains that bind her. LeBon and Taylor's Vivienne Westwood wardrobe were likely a nod to the band's early New Romantic era.A portion of the music video can be seen in the episode of the MTV show, "Beavis & Butthead," entitled, "No Laughing."B-sides, bonus tracks and remixesThe single was released in the United Kingdom on March 29, 1993, with the B-side "Ordinary World (Acoustic Version)". This was the single's official B-side in the UK, along with two official remixes of "Come Undone".In the US however, three new, original compositions written during the album's production were featured as B-sides - "Time for Temptation", "Stop Dead" and "Falling Angel". For collectors, the US releases also contained an alternate mix of "To the Shore" and the first appearance on CD of "The Chauffeur (Blue Silver)".List of remixes"Mix 1 Master" (aka "12" Mix - Comin' Together") "Mix 2 Master" "Churban Mix" (aka "US Remix") "La Fin de Sile" "FGI Phumpin' 12"" "Come Undub" "TV Synth Strings" Covers, samples, & media referencesThe song has been covered by the bands Mad at Gravity, Chica y Los Gatos, Wise Crack, Bachelor Girl, Home Grown and Fragile Hollow.It has also been used in a commercial for hair cosmetics.Chart positions"Come Undone" reached #13 on the UK Singles Chart on April 10, #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 on April 17, #2 in Canada on June 17, #19 on the Australia Top 50, #26 on the France Top 50 and #21 on the Sweden Top 40..Track listing7": Parlophone DD 17 (UK)"Come Undone (Edit)" 4:15 "Ordinary World (Acoustic Version)" 5:05 7": Capitol S7-17316 (US)"Come Undone" 4:31 "Skin Trade" 4:25 MC: Capitol 4KM 44918 4 (US)"Come Undone (Album Version)" 4:31 "Come Undone (Mix 2 Master)" 5:26 ...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about watch box case, Plastic Battery Case, .

A security is a fungible, negotiable instrument representing financial value. Securities are broadly categorized into debt securities (such as banknotes, bonds and debentures), and equity securities; e.g., common stocks. The company or other entity issuing the security is called the issuer. What specifically qualifies as a security is dependent on the regulatory structure in a country. For example, private investment pools may have some features of securities, but they may not be registered or regulated as such if they meet various restrictions.
Securities may be represented by a certificate or, more typically, by an electronic book entry. Certificates may be bearer, meaning they entitle the holder to rights under the security merely by holding the security, or registered, meaning they entitle the holder to rights only if he or she appears on a security register maintained by the issuer or an intermediary. They include shares of corporate stock or mutual funds, bonds issued by corporations or governmental agencies, stock options or other options, limited partnership units, and various other formal investment instruments that are negotiable and fungible.

Issuers of securities include commercial companies, government agencies, local authorities and international and supranational organizations (such as the World Bank). Debt securities issued by a government (called government bonds or sovereign bonds) generally carry a lower interest rate than corporate debt issued by commercial companies. Interests in an assetor example, the flow of royalty payments from intellectual propertyay also be turned into securities. These repackaged securities resulting from a securitization are usually issued by a company established for the purpose of the repackagingalled a special purpose vehicle (SPV). See "Repackaging" below. SPVs are also used to issue other kinds of securities. SPVs can also be used to guarantee securities, such as covered bonds.
New capital
Commercial enterprises have traditionally used securities as a means of raising new capital. Securities may be an attractive option relative to bank loans depending on their pricing and market demand for particular characteristics. Another disadvantage of bank loans as a source of financing is that the bank may seek a measure of protection against default by the borrower via extensive financial covenants. Through securities, capital is provided by investors who purchase the securities upon...(and so on)

Geology, Meteorology
Jean-Andr Deluc (8 February 1727 7 November 1817) was a Swiss geologist and meteorologist.
He was born at Geneva, descended from a family which had emigrated from Lucca and settled at Geneva in the 15th century. His father, Fran?ois Deluc, was the author of some publications in refutation of Mandeville and other rationalistic writers, which are best known through Rousseau's humorous account of his ennui in reading them; and he gave his son an excellent education, chiefly in mathematics and natural science. On completing it Jean-Andr engaged in commerce, which principally occupied the first forty-six years of his life, without any other interruption than that which was occasioned by some journeys of business into the neighboring countries, and a few scientific excursions among the Alps.
During these, however, he collected by degrees, in conjunction with his brother Guillaume Antoine Deluc, a splendid museum of mineralogy and of natural history in general, which was afterwards increased by his nephew J. Andr Deluc (1763-1847), who was also a writer on geology. He at the same time took a prominent part in politics. In 1768 he was sent to Paris on an embassy to the duc de Choiseul, whose friendship he succeeded in gaining. In 1770 he was nominated one of the Council of Two Hundred.
Three years later unexpected reverses in business made it advisable for him to quit his native town, which he only revisited once for a few days. The change was welcome insofar as it set him entirely free for scientific pursuits, and it was with little regret that he removed to England in 1773. He was made a fellow of the Royal Society in the same year, and received the appointment of reader to Queen Charlotte, which he continued to hold for forty-four years, and which afforded him both leisure and a competent income.
In the latter part of his life he obtained leave to make several tours in Switzerland, France, Holland and Germany. In Germany he passed the six years from 1798 to 1804; and after his return he undertook a geological tour through England. When he was at G?ttingen, in the beginning of his German tour, he received the compliment of being appointed honorary professor of philosophy and geology in that university; but he never entered upon the active duties of a professorship. He was also a correspondent of the French Academy of Sciences, and a member of several other scientific associations. He died at Windsor in 1817.
His favorite studies were geology and meteorology. The situation of his native country had naturally led him to contemplate the peculiarities of the earths structure, and the properties of the atmosphere, as particularly displayed in mountainous countries, and as subservient to the measurement of heights. According to Georges Cuvier, he ranked among the first geologists of his age. His principal geological work, Lettres physiques et morales sur les montagnes et sur l'histoire de la terre et de l'homme, first published in 1778, and in a more complete form in 1779, was dedicated to Queen Charlotte. It dealt with the appearance of mountains and the antiquity of the-human race, explained the six days of the Mosaic creation as so many epochs preceding the actual state of the globe, and attributed the deluge to the filling up of cavities supposed to have been left void in the interior of the earth. He published later an important series of volumes on geological travels in the north of Europe (1810), in England (1811), and in France, Switzerland and Germany (1813). These were translated into English.
Deluc's original experiments relating to meteorology were valuable to the natural philosopher; and he discovered many facts of considerable importance relating to heat and moisture. He noticed the disappearance of heat in the thawing of ice about the same time that Joseph Black founded on it his ingenious hypothesis of latent heat. He ascertained that water was denser about 40 F. (4 C.) than at the temperature of freezing, expanding equally on each side of the maximum; and he was the originator of the theory, afterward readvanced by John Dalton, that the quantity of aqueous vapour contained in any space is independent of the presence or density of the air, or of any other elastic fluid.
His Recherches sur les modifications de l'atmosphere (2 vols. 4to, Geneva, 1772; 2nd ed., 4 vols. 8vo, Paris, 1784) contains many accurate and ingenious experiments upon moisture, evaporation and the indications of hygrometers and thermometers, applied to the barometer employed in determining heights. In. the Phil. Trans., 1773, appeared his account of a new hygrometer, which resembled a mercurial thermometer, with an ivory bulb, which expanded by moisture, and caused the...(and so on)

History
The origin of the lingo is unknown, but there is evidence suggesting it may have been used by waiters as early as the 1870s and 1880s. Many of the terms used are lighthearted and tongue-in-cheek and some are a bit racy or ribald, but are helpful mnemonic devices for short-order cooks and staff. Diner slang was most popular from the 1920s to the 1970s.
Today, diner lingo is not as prevalent as it was in the past because the rise of the fast food industry has in large part replaced the diner. Also, the use of computerized order systems has eliminated the need for wait staff to "call" orders. However, the use of restaurant diner lingo is still present in small towns as well as retro-style restaurants and is a colorful part of Americana.

The Odyssey (Greek: ???????? or Odseia) is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is, in part, a sequel to the Iliad, the other work traditionally ascribed to Homer. The poem is fundamental to the modern Western canon. Indeed it is the secondhe Iliad being the firstxtant work of Western literature. It was probably composed near the end of the eighth century BC, somewhere in Ionia, the then Greek-controlled coastal region of what is now Turkey.[1]
The poem mainly centers on the Greek hero Odysseus (or Ulysses, as he was known in Roman myths) and his long journey home following the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War.[2] In his absence, it is assumed he has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, called Proci, competing for Penelope's hand in marriage.
It continues to be read in Homeric Greek and translated into modern languages around the world. The original poem was composed in an oral tradition by an aoidos, perhaps a rhapsode, and was intended more to be sung than read.[3] The details of the ancient oral performance, and the story's conversion to a written work inspire continual debate among scholars. The Odyssey was written in a regionless poetic dialect of Greek and comprises 12,110 lines of dactylic hexameter.[4] Among the most impressive elements of the text are its strikingly modern non-linear plot, and the fact that events are shown to depend as much on the choices made by women and serfs as on the actions of fighting men. In the English language as well as many others, the word odyssey has come to refer to an epic voyage.

Synopsis
Telemachus, Odysseus' son, is only a month old when Odysseus sets out for Troy to fight a war he wants no part of.[5] At the point where the Odyssey begins, ten years after the end of the ten-year Trojan War, Telemachus is twenty and is sharing his absent father house on the island of Ithaca with his mother Penelope and a crowd of 108 boisterous young men, "the Suitors", whose aim is to persuade Penelope that her husband is dead and that she should marry one of them.
Odysseus protector, the goddess Athena, discusses his fate with Zeus, king of the gods, at a moment when Odysseus's enemy, the god of the sea Poseidon, is absent from Mount Olympus. Then, disguised as a Taphian chieftain named Mentes, she visits Telemachus to urge him to search for news of his father. He offers her hospitality; they observe the Suitors dining rowdily, and the bard Phemius performing a narrative poem for them. Penelope objects to Phemius's theme, the "Return from Troy"[6] because it reminds her of her missing husband, but Telemachus rebuts her objections.
That night, Athena disguised as Telemachus finds a ship and crew for the true Telemachus. Next morning, Telemachus calls an assembly of citizens of Ithaca to discuss what should be done to the suitors. Accompanied by Athena (now disguised as his friend Mentor), he departs for the Greek mainland and the household of Nestor, most venerable of the Greek warriors at Troy, now at home in Pylos. From there, Telemachus rides overland, accompanied by Nestor's son, to Sparta, where he finds Menelaus and Helen, now reconciled. He is told that they returned to Greece after a long voyage by way of Egypt; there, on the magical island of Pharos, Menelaus encountered the old sea-god Proteus, who told him that Odysseus is a captive of the nymph Calypso. Incidentally, Telemachus learns the fate of Menelaus brother Agamemnon, king of Mycenae and leader of the Greeks at Troy, murdered on his return home by his wife Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus.

Charles Gleyre, Odysseus and Nausica?
Meanwhile, Odysseus, has spent seven years in captivity on Calypso's island. She is persuaded to release him by the messenger god Hermes, who has been sent by Zeus. Odysseus builds a raft and is given clothing, food and drink by Calypso. It is wrecked by Poseidon, but Odysseus swims ashore on the island of Scherie, where, naked and exhausted, he hides in a pile of leaves and falls asleep. Next morning, awakened by the laughter of girls, he sees the young Nausicaa, who has gone to the seashore with her maids to wash clothes. He appeals to her for help. She encourages him to seek the hospitality of her parents, Arete and Alcinous. Odysseus is welcomed and is not at first asked for his name. He remains several days, takes part in a pentathlon, and hears the blind singer Demodocus perform two narrative poems. The first is an otherwise obscure incident of the Trojan War, the...(and so on)

Tea has had a major influence on the development of Chinese culture.
According to Chinese tradition, the original cup of tea was not invented but discovered in the course of daily affairs by the simple inhabitants in the hills of Min-nan, who found out the secret of preserving the essence of the green tea leaves. It was rolled and dried and good for keeping until when needed.
In modern China, virtually every dwelling--down to the simplest mud huts--has a set of tea implements for brewing a hot cup of tea. These implements are symbols of welcome for visitors or neighbors. Traditionally, a visitor to a Chinese home will be expected to sit down and drink tea while talking; the Chinese consider having such visits while standing to be uncouth. There are several types of tea. There is green tea, red tea, black tea, white tea, and flower tea. Tea leaves are traditionally produced by constantly turning fresh leaves in a deep bowl. This process allows it to dry with its full flavor ready to be used.

Surfing "long-sleeves" rashguard
A rash guard, also known as rash vest, is a type of athletic shirt made of spandex and nylon or polyester. Rash guards are used for light coverage in warm to extreme summer temperatures for several watersports including surfing, scuba diving, snorkelling, wakeboarding, body surfing, body boarding, windsurfing and kayaking.
Rash guards are most often worn in surfing when the weather is too warm for a wetsuit, and to prevent wax-based chafing from sliding on and off of the surf board. The board's wax holds sand from the beach that would rub against the surfer's torsos as they paddled out to the break. Rash guards also offer some protection from the sun and slight protection against jelly fish stings and are sometimes worn under wetsuits to prevent chafing. Some rash guards offer Ultraviolet Protection Factor to protect against the rays of the sun. A rash guard helps to prevent irritation caused by rapid impact with surface water and waves as well.
Rash guards are thought to have originated in Australia,[citation needed] where they are commonly referred to as "rashies" or "rashys". Variations of the rash guard have made their way into many other sports including baseball, American football, water polo, Brazillian Jiu Jitsu, Mixed Martial Arts and football.
Swim shirts
Swim shirts are relatively new to the consumer market, but are growing in popularity. They are generally more loose fitting and casually worn. Their primary purpose is to offer an alternative to sunscreen to protect the wearer's skin from the sun's UV radiation and eventual skin cancer. Many swim shirts carry a UPF rating of 50+, which blocks out over 98% of the sun harmful rays. Swim shirts were created as an alternative to sunscreen and other forms of sun protection. Many people find that sunscreen isn always enough; it is often not used correctly and some have skin allergies or sensitivities to chemicals that sunscreens can contain. Although the name implies water sports, people use swim shirts for an array of activities: swimming, boating, golfing, tennis, gardening, playing in the sprinklers, water parks, beach trips, pool play, rivers and lakes, water skiing, surfing, snow skiing, sledding, etc.

History
A single wagon was built in 1958, but it was not until 1960 that any more emerged. The early usage of the wagons was for carrying finished motor cars from Melbourne to Sydney and Adelaide.[1] The Ford Motor Company plant at Broadmeadows was one major source of the traffic, with Holden being the other between Melbourne and Adelaide.[2] This traffic ended by the 1990s and the wagons were put into storage.[3]
The other traffic was the motorail service provided to passengers on long distance trains, allowing them to bring their car along with them. From the 1970s wagons were assigned to the Vinelander service from Melbourne to Mildura,[4] with additional wagons used on the Southern Aurora between Melbourne and Adelaide,[5] and The Overland between Melbourne and Adelaide.[6] The latter train is the only one still running today, but has not had a motorail facility available due to the redevelopment of Southern Cross Station.[7]
Variants
'Short' wagons
When the need arose for a form of motor car body transportation between Melbourne and Adelaide in 1958, a new vehicle class was created. A single wagon was built using the underframe of a scrapped Swing Door suburban train, with skeletal truss sides and appropriate tie downs. In 1960 the wagon was modified to permit roll-on roll-off loading and unloading, and by 1961 there were 22 wagons of this type,[8] each capable of holding eight vehicles. These wagons, which were 58feet 9inches (17.9m) in length, were built at Newport Workshops and received the code 'AA'.[9] Closed in sides were later added to the wagons. Subsequent bogie modifications saw these wagons recoded to 'AF' and then to 'AX'.[4] With the introduction of Railways of Australia four letter codes in 1979 the wagons were recoded to 'VMAX',[4] and then received a succession of 'VMxx' series codes.
'Long' wagons
The 75feet 10inches (23.1m) long motorail wagons were built at either the Newport Workshops or Bendigo Workshops. Again with skeletal truss sides, only some were closed in like the shorter wagons. Initial codes were 'ALF' and 'ALX' with the similar 'MLX' added and reclassed later. With the introduction of four letter codes in 1979 they became 'VMBX' and then 'VMBY'.[10] A number of these wagons were sold to the National Rail Corporation in 1994.[9]
Car Parts Transport
Aside from the above bogie wagons, there were also the KF and KW four wheel wagons, and the larger BFW/VBCW wagons used for transporting car parts.
Liveries
The majority of the wagons received the standard Victorian Railways freight livery of wagon red. However, those used in motorail service later received a dark blue with white lettering scheme, then a tangerine scheme with the introduction of VicRail and V/Line.[4] Also, at one point the BFW/VBCW class were labelled with a large Ford logo.

Conker's Bad Fur Day is a Nintendo 64 video game developed and published by Rare, and distributed by Nintendo. The game stars Conker the Squirrel, a Rare character who had previously appeared in other games marketed towards children, such as Diddy Kong Racing for the Nintendo 64 and Conker's Pocket Tales for the Game Boy Color. Marketed as an "adult" platform game, Bad Fur Day features scatological humour, cartoon violence, sexual themes and a penchant for parodies. The game received very positive critical reviews, despite its limited advertising, and earned a cult following. A remake of the game was made available on the Xbox in 2005 in the form of Conker: Live & Reloaded.

Gameplay
In the single-player mode, the player takes on the role of Conker and plays the game in a free-roaming environment. Conker can duck and jump a high distance vertically, as well as jump at least twice his height in any direction. Conker can also spin his tail around quickly like a helicopter for a few seconds. Rather than give it an official-sounding name, as is the unofficial 'tradition' in the video game business, Conker just calls it the "helicoptery tail thing". This allows him to jump a little higher, navigate in the air to accurately land, and slow his descent if he's far from the ground. After a few seconds, the tail slows down, and he drops and isn't able to do it again until he's landed and jumped again. Besides this, he has few other physical powers. He can swim underwater for a while until he runs out of breath, jog indefinitely and not get tired, and is strong enough to push heavy round objects, which in one of the later levels are a "big bourgeoisie boiler's brass bollocks".
Conker can eat pieces of "Anti-Gravity Chocolate" to regain lost health (in fact, his life bar is represented by a six-square chocolate bar). In a parody of similar platformers with unexplained floating pickups throughout levels, they were originally created by the Professor, but he threw them out the castle window when he started a new project.[2] Afterward, Conker can eat up to six of them. There are two types of chocolate; regenerative chocolate and one-time chocolate. One-time chocolate disappears after eaten, and doesn't re-appear until Conker exits then re-enters the world. Regenerative chocolate re-appears 10 seconds after being eaten, apparently out of thin air. Antigravity chocolate does not provide protection against certain things, such as falls from especially high heights, being severed in two by spinning blades, or being dismembered in a grinder. However, it does protect against being hit with a heavy object from above, such as a large dollop of feces.
Conker has a limited number of lives; the ability to do this in the context of the game is explained in a cutscene the first time that Conker dies; according to the game, squirrels have as many lives as "they think they can get away with," similar to cats, and the Grim Reaper is willing to grant Conker another chance if he picks up squirrel tails.
"Context-sensitive Zones" allow Conker to do things he couldn't normally do; he usually pulls a far-too-big thing out of his far-too-small pocket, although sometimes he turns into an anvil and slams into the ground. Zones under beer kegs can give him "drunken" abilities as well (he is able to stagger around and urinate). Although most Zones only work once, some can be used more than once, or even indefinitely. However, most of the context zones lose their purpose after being utilized, even if they are continuously usable. These context-sensitive areas usually take the form of "B-button pads", and sometimes activate while Conker is in mid-air. However, they are always activated by a press of the B button. A light bulb appears over Conker's head when he's in a context-sensitive zone.
Much of the gameplay in Conker's Bad Fur Day features parodies of various movies, such as Reservoir Dogs and games, Super Mario 64.
The game has a lot of strong language in it, but only censors the words "fuck", "cock", and sometimes "shit". with a bleep censor, with the subtitles of the speech containing the word being flashing symbols in red, like skulls, spirals and lightning. More words are...(and so on)

Gretchen, his captor, asks T-Bag what he knows about Scylla. She proceeds to cut his good arm several times before T-Bag asks how he could be of service to her.At the warehouse the team finds out that the next card holder is in Las Vegas, Nevada. Lincoln, Sucre, Roland, and Sara proceed to Las Vegas. The foursome tails the card holder in a casino to copy his card. Meanwhile, Sara becomes shaken when she learns from Lincoln that Michael may have a brain aneurysm and could die soon like his mother did. Roland's device fails to pick up any signal, and Lincoln deduces that the card holder is keeping his card in his room. At an outdoor swimming pool, Sara is wearing a string bikini with a transparent dress over it and is sent to hit up the card holder by faking that she was on a stagette party and her friends dared her to get a photo in a whale room. However, the card holder refuses and leaves. The bartender tells her that she "isn't his type" and that the card holder asked if he "liked to party." This leads to the team using Sucre instead, who accepts very reluctantly.Back in Los Angeles T-Bag's assistant calls Bellick and tells the team that she wants to help and wants money. At the meeting, however, Michael, Mahone, and Bellick walk into a trap created by T-Bag. T-Bag has the girl tie up Bellick, Michael, and Mahone, but Mahone makes a run for it and calls Agent Self.T-Bag forces Michael to help him decode Whistler's bird book by threatening the life of his assistant with a gun until Michael agrees. Gretchen, staying out of view in another room, notices Bellick has an ankle monitor and tells T-Bag they have to get them off. Michael arranges the pages from the book into a blueprint of the GATE office but secretly hides a page under the table.In Las Vegas Sucre is seen walking to the pool deck, removing his shirt, and sitting down with a beer beside the card holder. Sucre is invited by the card holder to his room for a better drink. Once inside the room, Sucre secretly copies the fifth card while discovering that Scuderi's aim was to find a one-time bedmate for his wife and not for himself; this due to impotency caused by a Vietnam War wound in Hue City. Sucre then returns after a long time to the hotel room and tells them that the download was successful. Roland is then asking what happened, and Sucre answers, "It stays in Vegas," while Sucre give Roland the device.Mahone, with a GPS and a gun, breaks into the house where Michael and Bellick are supposedly held but only finds the ankle monitors. Mahone notices a paper crane, which is a page with the word GATE. Meanwhile, T-Bag, Gretchen, and their captives arrive at a new hiding spot, where Gretchen lures a GATE employee and kills him for snooping around. At GATE T-Bag takes Michael to the 8 x 10 closet in his old office, where he uses a screwdriver to remove the carpet and the floor tiles, revealing a metal trap door.As Lincoln and his team are leaving the casino, Roland trails behind and uses the slot machines while holding the device, which allows him to hit jackpot many times. Unfortunately, this is noticed by the casino employees. The casino security confiscates the device (despite Roland telling him it's a battery pack) and kicks him out, much to the team's annoyance. Roland does say that he can make another device in a month.After opening the trap door, Michael and T-Bag descend a ladder and arrive at a small underground hallway. Michael states that he is no longer helping T-Bag when Mahone jumps out and knocks out T-Bag. Mahone and Michael then throw T-Bag into a cell and leave him there yelling. Walking out from GATE, Mahone, Self, and Michael hear a cell phone nearby. Michael answers the call and realizes that it is Gretchen, still alive and involved.ReceptionIGN gave the episode 9.2 saying that the episode "is a fine example of what can be done with this new series format". IGN also gave the episode the Editor's choice award. [2]References^ http://www.thefutoncritic.com/listings.aspx?id=20080918fox06 ^ Ahsan Haque (2008-10-07).

The tag is primarily used for the identification of dead and wounded along with providing essential basic medical information for the treatment of the latter such as blood type[1] and history of inoculations. In the event the member has a medical condition that requires special attention, an additional red tag with the pertinent information is issued and worn with the dog tags.Wearing of the tag is required at all times by soldiers in the field. It may contain two copies of the information and be designed to break easily into two pieces. This allows half the tag to be collected for notification while the other half remains with the body when battle conditions do not allow the casualty to be immediately recovered. Alternatively, two identical tags are issued. One is worn on a long chain around the neck; the second on a much smaller chain attached to the first chain. In the event the wearer is killed the second tag is collected and the first remains with the body.Dog tag tattoos, alternately known as "meat tags" are growing in popularity for active U.S. soldiers. These are tattoos that are usually featured on the torso, and can be used for identification in case the deceased is otherwise unidentifiable.[2]Contents1 Dog tags in history 1.1 Franco-Prussian War 1.2 First World War 1.3 World War II 2 Non-military wear 3 National variations 3.1 Australia 3.2 Belgium 3.3 Canada 3.4 Cyprus 3.5 Denmark 3.6 Finland 3.7 Germany 3.8 Greece 3.9 Israel 3.10 The Netherlands 3.11 Norway 3.12 Singapore 3.13 Sweden 3.14 Switzerland 3.15 United Kingdom 3.16 United States 4 Notes 5 External links // Dog tags in historyDog tags of a U.S. Army soldier who served in World War IIDuring the American Civil War of 1861-1865, some soldiers pinned paper notes with their name and home address to the backs of their coats. Other soldiers stencilled identification on their knapsacks or scratched it in the soft lead backing of the Army belt buckle.Manufacturers of identification badges recognized a market and began advertising in periodicals. Their pins were usually shaped to suggest a branch of service and engraved with soldier's name and unit. Machine-stamped tags were also made of brass or lead with a hole and usually had (on one side) an eagle or shield and such phrases as "War for the Union" or "Liberty, Union, and Equality." The other side had the soldier's name and unit and sometimes a list of battles in which he had participated.A New Yorker named John Kennedy wrote to the U.S. Army in 1862, offering to furnish discs for all officers and men in the Federal Army, enclosing a design for the disc. The National Archives now has the letter along with the reply, a summary refusal without explanation.In the Spanish-American War, soldiers purchased crude stamped identification tags, sometimes with misleading information.Franco-Prussian WarThe Prussian Army issued identification tags for its troops at the beginning of the Franco-Prussian War in 1870. They were nicknamed Hundemarken ("dog tags") and compared to a similar identification system instituted by the Kaiser for dogs in the Prussian capital city of Berlin at about the same time.[3]First World WarThe British Army and their Imperial forces in Canada, Australia and New Zealand issued identification tags from the beginning of the First World War. The tags were made of fibre, one in red and one in green and suspended around the neck by butcher's twine. The same pattern was worn into the Second World War and the Korean War by Commonwealth forces.The U.S. Army first authorized identification tags in War Department General Order No. 204, dated December 20, 1906, which essentially prescribes the Kennedy identification tag:"An aluminum identification tag, the size of a silver half dollar and of suitable thickness, stamped with the name, rank, company, regiment, or corps of the wearer, will be worn by each officer and enlisted man of the Army whenever the field kit is worn, the tag to be suspended from the neck, underneath the clothing, by a cord or thong passed through a small hole in the tab. It is prescribed as a part of the uniform and when not worn as directed herein will be habitually kept in the possession of the owner. The tag will be issued by the Quartermaster's Department gratuitously to enlisted men and at cost price to officers..."The Army changed regulations on...(and so on)

The company was most famous for forging the Hudson River Chain that kept the British Navy from sailing up the Hudson during the American Revolution, and served to protect the strategically important fort at West Point. The works were operational from 1761 to 1842.Contents1 Initial ore discovery 2 Additional mines opened 3 First metal produced in New York 4 The Hudson River Chain 5 References // Initial ore discoveryIn 1750 the first discovery was made of a rich superficial deposit of iron ore at the south end of Sterling Mountain, in the town of Monroe, New York. In the following year, Ward & Colton erected at the outlet of mine and Sterling Pond, in the extreme southern part of Warwick, near the Monroe line, a charcoal blast-furnace, which was the first in Warwick. These works were called the Sterling Iron-works, honoring General William Alexander, Lord Stirling, the owner of the land, and later an officer in the Revolutionary army. They were built for the manufacture of anchors, including for the United States frigate, USS Constitution. A second Sterling furnace was built in 1777.Additional mines openedSeveral other veins of magnetic ore were later opened in the vicinity of the Sterling mine, which itself covered about 30 acres. The Forest of Dean mine, a very extensive bed six miles west-northwest of Fort Montgomery, as early as 1756 supplied a furnace, and was abandoned twenty-one years later. The vein is over 30 feet thick and 150 broad, and made good cold short iron.The Long Mine, belonging to the Townsends, was discovered in 1761 by David Jones and supplied about 500 tons of ore annually to the Sterling Works over the next 70-80 years for an aggregate production of about 140,000 tons. It was the only mine at which systematic mining was attempted in that time, and was worked to the depth of 170 feet on a single vein 6 feet thick. The ore yielded 62 per cent, of strong tough metal, from which cannon, muskets, wire, steel, fine malleable Iron, and harness-buckles were made.The Mountain Mine, half a mile southwest of Long Mine, was found in 1758 by a hunter, in consequence of a tree having been blown up by he roots. The Iron from this mine was remarkable for its strength and fine polish, and was in consequence chiefly exported to England to be tinned.First metal produced in New YorkMr. Peter Townsend, who became the owner of Stirling Iron before the Revolutionary War, made iron anchors in 1773, and in 1776 produced the first steel in New York, at first from pig and afterward from bar iron. The first blister steel made in the State was made by his son, Peter Townsend, Jr., in 1810, from ore of the Long Mine on the Stirling estate. In the manufacture of edge-tools it was considered equal to the famous Dannemora mine Swedish Iron.The first cannon made in the State were cast at Stirling for the government, in 1816. They were from six to thirty-two pounders.The Hudson River ChainThe Great Chain forged at Stirling Iron Works by Peter TownsendAt the close of 1779, West Point was the strongest military post in America. In addition to the batteries that stood menacingly upon the hill tops, the river was obstructed by an enormous iron chain. The iron of which this chain was constructed was wrought from ore of equal parts, from the Stirling and Long Mines, in Orange county. The chain was manufactured at the Stirling Iron Works about 25 miles from West Point. The general superintendent of the work, as engineer, was Captain Thomas Machin, who afterward assisted in the engineering operations at Yorktown, when Cornwallis was captured. The project took place under the supervision of Colonel Timothy Pickering.The chain was completed in the middle of April, 1778, and on the 1st of May it was stretched across the river and secured. It weighed 186 tons, and was made and delivered in six weeks. This chain was forged at Stirling, hauled piece by piece to New Windsor, and put together at the military smithy of Capt. Machin. It was then floated down the Hudson as a whole, and placed in position. It remained unbroken during the war although others at Fort Montgomery and on the lake above were broken by the British. Links of these chains, weighing 140 lbs. each, are preserved at the Military Academy at West Point.In front of this chain was a heavy boom of logs. Each winter the chain and boom were un-moored, taken up to the beach, in the cove now crossed by the railroad tracks, and piled up out of reach of the moving ice until ready to be replaced in the spring.The chain was instrumental in the discovery of Benedict Arnold, when Peter Townsend's cousin,...(and so on)

Shanks are necessary to provide space for fabric to sit in between the button and the garment when the garment is buttoned. Shanks also allow a garment to hang and drape more nicely.Contents1 Types of shanks 1.1 Button Shank 1.2 Thread shank 1.2.1 Creating a thread shank 2 Specialty shanks 3 See also 4 References // Types of shanksThere are two types of shanks:Button ShankA button shank is a loop of metal, plastic, or fabric on the underside of some styles of buttons. The hole formed by the loop is used to sew the button to the fabric or textile. Buttons with shanks have no holes in the button blank (the main part of the button) itself because they are not needed for sewing. Buttons with shanks are more expensive to produce than shankless buttons.Thread shankA button without a shank. A thread shank is required when sewing this type of button to a garment properly.A thread shank is made of thread and is intended to be used with a shankless button (a button with typically two or four holes). It is created while a button is stitched onto a garment.Creating a thread shankA thread shank is created by loosely stitching a shankless button onto fabric. This is usually done by keeping a toothpick or other small object in between the button and fabric while the button is stitched on. Once the button has been sewn through a few times, the toothpick is removed and the needle is moved down through one of the buttonholes, placing the needle and its thread in between the button and fabric. The sewer takes care to not tighten the thread too much. While holding the button away from the garment, the thread is then firmly wrapped around the button (in between the button and fabric) a few times to form a sturdy wrapper for the other threads. The needle is then pushed through the fabric to the underside of the garment, where it can then be securely fastened off. A thread shank's length depends on the thickness of the fabric that will be buttoned. The ideal thread shank is long enough to button the fabric and still have the garment draping nicely, but short enough that the button does not flop around when buttoned.Specialty shanksRegular thread is used on lightweight garments such as shirts which are subject to little stress, but a specialty thread called buttonhole twist is used on items that experience more wear and tear, such as coats and pants. If a sewer uses regular thread, they usually use a double thread to strengthen the quality of the stitching. Long coats that are good-quality or better often have a special shank at the bottom button. Because the bottom button of a coat is subject to a lot of stress, shanks are typically longer than usual and are sometimes made with elastic thread. In addition to the special shank, an additional (shankless) button with no thread shank is often used on the underside of the fabric when sewing the button on. As a result, the stress to the button, shank, and thread pulls on this second button instead of the fabric. This prevents the thread from damaging and ripping the fabric, and is one of two ways to prevent "popping a button" (the other method is to use good strong thread such as buttonhole twist). In addition to the typical shanked and shankless buttons, covered buttons are shanked buttons that have fabric completely covering the back. They are stitched on like regular shanked buttons, but the sewer has to "feel" for the shank while they are sewing the button on. Covered buttons are hand-made (to some degree), expensive, and are used in high-end and specialty garments.

This calcium carbonate cements together other materials, including gravel, sand, clay, and silt. It is found in aridisol and mollisol soil orders. Caliche occurs worldwide, generally in arid or semi-arid regions, including in central and western Australia, in the Kalahari Desert, in the High Plains of the western USA, and in the Sonoran Desert. Caliche is also known as hardpan, calcrete, kankar (in India), or duricrust. The term caliche is Spanish and is originally from the Latin calx, meaning lime.Caliche is generally light colored but can range from white to light pink to reddish-brown, depending on the impurities present. It is generally found on or near the surface, but it can be found in deeper subsoil deposits as well. The layers can vary from a few inches to feet thick, and multiple layers can exist in a single location.In northern Chile and Peru, caliche also refers to mineral deposits that include nitrate salts.[1] Caliche can also refer to various clayey deposits in Mexico and Colombia. In addition, it has been used to describe some forms of quartzite, bauxite, kaolinite, laterite, chalcedony, opal, and soda niter.A similar material, composed of calcium sulfate rather than calcium carbonate, is called gypcrust or gypcrete ("Gyp-Crete" is also a trademarked brand name).Contents1 How it forms 2 Examples of natural occurrence 3 Economic uses 3.1 Building applications 3.2 Sugar refining 3.3 Chilean Caliche 4 Caliche and Gardening 4.1 Problems caused by Caliche 4.2 Fixing these problems 5 References 6 Further reading 7 External links // How it formsCaliche generally forms when minerals are leached from the upper layer of the soil (the A horizon) and accumulate in the next layer (the B horizon), at depths of approximately 3 to 10 feet under the surface. Caliche generally consists of carbonates in semiarid regions, while in arid regions, less soluble minerals will form caliche layers after all the carbonates have been leached from the soil. The calcium carbonate that is deposited accumulates, first forming grains, then small clumps, then a discernible layer, and finally a thicker, solid bed. As the caliche layer forms, the layer gradually becomes deeper, eventually moving into the parent material, which lies under the upper soil horizons.However, caliche can also form in other ways. It can form when water rises through capillary action. In an arid region, rainwater will sink into the ground very quickly. Later, as the surface dries out, the water below the surface will rise, carrying dissolved minerals from lower layers upward with it. This water movement forms a caliche that tends to grow thinner and branch out as it nears the surface. Plants can contribute to the formation of caliche as well. The plant roots take up water through transpiration, leaving behind the dissolved calcium carbonate, which precipitates to form caliche. Caliche can also form on outcrops of porous rocks or in rock fissures where water is trapped and evaporates. In general, caliche deposition is a slow process, but if enough moisture is present in an otherwise arid site, it can accumulate fast enough to block a drain pipe.Examples of natural occurrenceWhile the formation of other caliches is relatively well understood, the origin of Chilean caliche is not clearly known. One possibility is that the deposits were formed when a prehistoric inland sea evaporated. Another theory is that it was deposited due to weathering of the Andes.One of the world's largest deposits of calcrete is in the Makgadikgadi Pans in Botswana where surface calcretes occur at the location of a now desiccated prehistoric lake.[2]Caliche - Sedimentary Rock Ridgecrest Kern County CaliforniaEconomic usesBuilding applicationsCaliche (the Calcium carbonate mineral) is used in construction worldwide. The caliche reserves in the Llano Estacado in Texas can be used in the manufacture of Portland cement; the caliche meets the chemical composition requirements and has been used as a principal raw material in Portland cement production in at least one Texas plant. Where the calcium carbonate content is over 80%, caliche can also be fired and used as a source of lime in areas, which can then be used for soil stabilization.When mixed with small amounts of either pozzolan or Portland cement, caliche can also be used as a building material that will exceed the building code requirements for unfired masonry materials. For example, caliche was used to build some of the Mayan buildings in the Yucat Peninsula in Mexico.

Ball weight is 400-450 grams (14-16 ounces) and inflated to approximately 90 kPa (13 PSI) of pressure. Water polo balls come in two main sizes: a size 5 (0.7 meters or 28 inches in circumference), intended for use by men, and a size 4 (0.65 meters or 26.5 inches in circumference), intended for women. Smaller balls are sometimes used by juniors for "mini-polo," though these miniature do not typically come in standard sizes and are often coloured green.Contents1 Development of the water polo ball 2 Recent changes to water polo balls 3 Notes 4 Further reading 5 See also 6 External links // Development of the water polo ballThe modern game originated in the late 19th Century as a form of rugby football, played in rivers in England and Scotland, with a small 3 to 4 inch ball constructed of rubber imported from colonial plantations in India. This "water rugby" came to be called "water polo" based on the English pronunciation of the Balti word for ball, pulu. The original ball soon gave way to a football (soccer ball), which allowed for passing and swimming above water with the ball. However, the leather football absorbed water and became extremely heavy, slippery and out-of-control when wet. In 1936, James R. ("Jimmy") Smith, California water polo coach and author of several books on water polo mechanics, developed a ball made with an inflatable bladder and a rubber fabric cover, which improved performance.[1] The new ball was red, but by 1948 yellow was adopted for better visibility by spectators. It became the official FINA and Olympic ball in 1956.Recent changes to water polo ballsNew style of water polo ball introduced in 2005In the first half of 2005, FINA allowed a change to the standard water polo ball used in official games. This change permitted a coloured middle stripe (blue, green, red, black, or yellow) with the normal yellow stripes flanking the coloured.In May 2006, the NCAA and National Federation of State High School Associations Rules Committees announced a rule change allowing the colored balls to be used in all NCAA and NFHS sanctioned games.[2] The current rule states that the water polo ball must be ellow with black lines, but new wording will allow for colored panels. Mikasa Sports, manufacturer of the new colored ball, claims that the new ball benefits teams by making it easier for them to keep track of their balls, differentiating the women balls from the men and teaching proper rotation on the ball.Unique designs and color combinations have been used to commemorate special competitions.[3]Notes^ International Swimming Hall of Fame, Biography: Jimmy Smith Retrieved December 17, 2006 ^ USA Water Polo: NCAA and NFHS Make Rule Change to Allow Colored Water Polo Balls Retrieved December 17, 2006 ^ USA Waterpolo News (2008-07-03): OFFICIAL GAME BALL FOR S & R SPORT JUNIOR OLYMPICS ANNOUNCED (Accessed 2008-07-07) Further readingNorris (Ed.), Jim (April 1990).

This development led to the Information Revolution.More recently, scientists have learned that not only electrical devices, but also mechanical devices, may be miniaturized and batch-fabricated, promising the same benefits to the mechanical world as integrated circuit technology has given to the electrical world. While electronics now provide the rains for today advanced systems and products, micromechanical devices can provide the sensors and actuators the eyes and ears, hands and feet which interface to the outside world.Today, micromechanical devices are the key components in a wide range of products such as automobile airbags, ink-jet printers, blood pressure monitors, and projection display systems. It seems clear that in the not-too-distant future these devices will be as pervasive as electronics.Contents1 Micro electromechanical systems 2 Items constructed at the microscopic level 3 External links 4 See also // Micro electromechanical systemsAn etched silicon waferThe term MEMS, for Micro Electro Mechanical Systems, was coined in the 1980 to describe new, sophisticated mechanical systems on a chip, such as micro electric motors, resonators, gears, and so on. Today, the term MEMS in practice is used to refer to any microscopic device with a mechanical function, which can be fabricated in a batch process (for example, an array of microscopic gears fabricated on a microchip would be considered a MEMS device but a tiny laser-machined stent or watch component would not). In Europe, the term MST for Micro System Technology is preferred, and in Japan MEMS are simply referred to as "micromachines". The distinctions in these terms are relatively minor and are often used interchangeably.Though MEMS processes are generally classified into a number of categories such as surface machining, bulk machining, LIGA, and EFAB there are indeed thousands of different MEMS processes. Some produce fairly simple geometries, while others offer more complex 3-D geometries and more versatility. A company making accelerometers for airbags would need a completely different design and process to produce an accelerometer for inertial navigation. Changing from an accelerometer to another inertial device such as a gyroscope requires an even greater change in design and process, and most likely a completely different fabrication facility and engineering team.MEMS technology has generated a tremendous amount of excitement, due to the vast range of important applications where MEMS can offer previously unattainable performance and reliability standards. In an age where everything must be smaller, faster, and cheaper, MEMS offers a compelling solution. MEMS have already had a profound impact on certain applications such as automotive sensors and inkjet printers. The emerging MEMS industry is already a multi-billion dollar market. It is expected to grow rapidly and become one of the major industries of the 21st century. Cahners In-Stat Group has projected sales of MEMS to reach $12B by 2005. The European NEXUS group projects even larger revenues, using a more inclusive definition of MEMS.Microtechnology is often constructed using photolithography. Lightwaves are focused through a mask onto a surface. They solidify a chemical film. The soft, unexposed parts of the film are washed away. Then acid etches away the material not protected.Microtechnology's most famous success is the integrated circuit. It has also been used to construct micromachinery.Items constructed at the microscopic levelThe following items have been constructed on a scale of 1 micrometre using photolithography:Electronics: wires resistors transistors thermionic valves diodes sensors capacitors Machinery: electric motors gears levers bearings hinges Fluidics: valves Channels pumps turbines v?d?eMicrotechnologyMEMS MST MicromachineryBasic structuresInterdigital transducer Cantilever MicrochannelApplicationsSensorsMicrobolometerActuatorsComb drive Scratch Drive Actuator Thermal actuatorSwitchesDigital micromirror device Optical switchOtherIBM Millipede RF-MEMS MOEMS Bio-MEMS Microfluidics...(and so on)

His major work, the Gutenberg Bible (also known as the 42-line Bible), has been acclaimed for its high aesthetic and technical quality.Among the specific contributions to printing that are attributed to Gutenberg are the invention of a process for mass-producing movable type, the use of oil-based ink, and the use of a wooden printing press similar to the screw olive and wine presses of the period. His truly epochal invention was the combination of these elements into a practical system. Gutenberg may have been familiar with printing; it is claimed that he had worked on copper engravings with an artist known as the Master of the Playing Cards.[1] Gutenberg's method for making type is traditionally considered to have included a type metal alloy and a hand mould for casting type. It should be noted that new research may indicate that standardised moveable type was a more complex evolutionary process spread over multiple locations.[2]The use of movable type was a marked improvement on the handwritten manuscript, which was the existing method of book production in Europe, and upon woodblock printing, and revolutionized European book-making. Gutenberg's printing technology spread rapidly throughout Europe and is considered a key factor in the European Renaissance. Gutenberg remains a towering figure in the popular image; in 1999, the A&E Network ranked Gutenberg #1 on their "People of the Millennium" countdown, and in 1997, Timeife magazine picked Gutenberg's invention as the most important of the second millennium.Contents1 Early life 1.1 Printing press 1.2 Court case 1.3 Later life 2 Printed books 3 Printing method with movable type 3.1 Was the type produced by punches and copper matrices? 3.2 Other hypotheses about European origins 4 Legacy 5 See also 6 References 7 Further reading 8 External links // Early lifeGutenberg was born in the German city of Mainz, the youngest son of the upper-class merchant Friele Gensfleisch zur Laden, and his second wife Else Wyrich, who was the daughter of a shopkeeper. According to some accounts Friele was a goldsmith for the bishop at Mainz, but most likely he was involved in the cloth trade.[3] Gutenberg's year of birth is not precisely known but was most likely around 1398.John Lienhard, technology historian, says "Most of Gutenberg's early life is a mystery. ... His father worked with the ecclesiastic mint. Gutenberg grew up knowing the trade of goldsmithing." [4] This is supported by historian Heinrich Wallau, who adds, "In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries his [descendants] claimed an hereditary position as ... the master of the archiepiscopal mint. In this capacity they doubtless acquired considerable knowledge and technical skill in metal working. They supplied the mint with the metal to be coined, changed the various species of coins, and had a seat at the assizes in forgery cases." [5].Wallau adds, "His surname was derived from the house inhabited by his father and his paternal ancestors 'zu Laden, zu Gutenberg'. The house of G?nsfleisch was one of the patrician families of the town, tracing its lineage back to the thirteenth century."[5] Patricians (aristocrats) in Mainz were often named after houses they owned. Around 1427, the name zu Gutenberg, after the family house in Mainz, is documented to have been used for the first time.[3]Artwork of Gutenberg reviewing a press proofIn 1411, there was an uprising in Mainz against the patricians, and more than a hundred families were forced to leave. As a result, the Gutenbergs are thought to have moved to Eltville am Rhein (Alta Villa), where his mother had an inherited estate. According to historian Heinrich Wallau, "All that is known of his youth is that he was not in Mainz in 1430. It is presumed that he migrated for political reasons to Strasburg, where the family probably had connections." [5] He is assumed to have studied at the University of Erfurt, where there is a record of a student, in 1419, named Johannes de Alta villa.Nothing is now known of Gutenberg's life for the next fifteen years, but in March 1434, a letter by him indicates that he was living in Strasbourg, where he had some relatives on his mother's side. He also appears to have been a goldsmith member enrolled in the Strasbourg militia. In 1437, there is evidence that he was instructing a...(and so on)

It was named for California, which was, in many cases, called the olden State. In the early years of the train, the drumhead, or lighted sign at the end of the observation car of the train, was done primarily in orange, with colored drawings of oranges on glass backlit by train lighting.The Golden State had the distinct advantage of transcontinental travel at a relatively low level crossing of the Continental Divide, approximately 4,400feet (1,300m) near Lordsburg, New Mexico, thus avoiding severe winter weather, particularly snowfall. This was an advantage for patients with lung problems and other illnesses, particularly tuberculosis, for which no antibiotics were available until after World War II. The other major central transcontinental routes both reached elevations of more than 7,000feet (2,100m) the Santa Fe near Flagstaff and the Union Pacific near Sherman Hill, Wyoming.In addition, the Southern Pacific (after 1924) directly served the Arizona winter resort, golf course, sanatorium and dude ranch areas of Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona as well as Palm Springs, California, the winter home playground of many Hollywood movie stars.The Golden State route had the disadvantage of having a weak connecting and somewhat over-extended granger rail line (the Rock Island) combined with the prosperous (and dominant) Southern Pacific who also had the Overland Route from San Francisco to Chicago as almost direct competition.Contents1 History 2 Routes 3 Equipment 4 Schedule 5 Other trains on the Golden State route 6 References 7 See also 8 External links // HistoryThe Golden State Limited was inaugurated on 2 October 1902 on a route that linked Chicago, Kansas City, El Paso, southern Arizona and Los Angeles. A disadvantage to this route was the relative lack of population centers compared with other transcontinental lines. From 19021907, the Golden State was numbered trains 43 and 44, numbers assumed in the 1930s by a secondary train on the route, the Californian.In 1907, the train was assigned numbers 3 and 4, by which it was known until its last run departed Los Angeles on 4 April 1968.The train was well-known as a luxurious heavyweight train, although not particularly fast. During the 1920s and 1930s, when Florida became a popular winter destination, the Rock Island and Southern Pacific positioned the Golden State as an escape from the cold eastern and Midwestern winters, with some success. The proximity to Mexico also provided romance for the route.For many years, the primary competition to Los Angeles was the Santa Fe's California Limited, which did almost twice the business. After the Santa Fe Chief was inaugurated in 1926, the Golden State sought to compete with this train. The only significant competition to the Santa Fe Super Chief was the Union Pacific/Chicago and North Western Railway City of Los Angeles introduced in 1936.The Southern Pacific and Rock Island did not have as close a relationship as did the Overland Route and Union Pacific City streamliners, leading to a wide variety of mixed and mis-matched equipment over the years.The Limited was dropped from the name on 18 May 1947 and the train was known merely as the Golden State.After World War II, the Rock Island and Southern Pacific entered into discussions about a new 39? hour (the accepted fastest schedule between Chicago and Los Angeles/San Francisco) streamliner to be named the Golden Rocket. This name was an extension of the use of the name Rocket that the Rock Island had introduced on other routes combined with the prefix olden which had been used for many years as a prefix for car names. See also the Rocky Mountain Rocket, the Des Moines Rocket, the Peoria Rocket and others.In the streamlined era, the Burlington and other cooperating rail lines used the word Silver as a prefix for their car names, referring to the (mostly) Budd stainless steel construction and corrugated sides of these cars. The Rock Island and Southern Pacific emphasis on the word Golden was also good advertising for the California destination of the trains.The Golden Rocket was to have two sets of equipment (one supplied by each railroad) and directly compete with the Santa Fe Super Chief, which was the most famous train in the west. The Rock Island ordered equipment, which was constructed with...(and so on)

Brown and Mr William H. Warren, commencing at this time as obbing engineers, specializing in tool making and gear cutting.After carrying out work of this nature for several years, the Company's production focus shifted to the manufacture of tools to service the motor trade which was then in its infancy.The business was gradually extended with the development of a number of production lines suited to automotive reconditioning equipment.In December 1930 the partnership was converted into a proprietary company.At the outbreak of World War 2 the factory's resources were used to aid the war effort and apart from manufacturing its normal range of products, the company took a leading part in production of tools and gauges for military purposes and was largely responsible for the more important tooling associated with .303 ammunition.The company was next approached by the Government's Director of Machine Tools and Gauges and requested to undertake the manufacture of a range of elf centering chucks. These chucks had never been manufactured in Australia before and information regarding overseas manufacturing procedures was not available. Warren and Brown commenced an extensive design and tooling programme and after many initial problems made their first deliveries of chucks to Government in February, 1942.By 1949 the continuing business expansion stretched the company's financial resources to the limit and in May, 1949 Warren and Brown Pty Ltd became part of the Repco organization and with the added resources available the company expanded into the heavier equipment field, adding products such as clutch rebuilders, spring testers, boring bars and other machines to its range.In 1948, Warren and Brown took out patents on what has now become known as the ual Signal trip mechanism for their world renowned range of torque wrenches. The first wrenches were released onto the market in 1949 and to this day still hold the major share of the Australian market despite an onslaught of cheap imports. Warren and Brown torque wrenches are recognised as the bench mark to where other similar products aspire to be and have been sold extensively around the world and can be found in the toolboxes of some of the biggest names in world motorsport.As a result of a significant change in ownership and corporate direction by the parent Repco Group in 1985, Warren and Brown was finally purchased by five of its management team in 1986 and relocated to its present site in Maidstone.Renamed Warren and Brown and Staff, the company became a privately owned Proprietary Limited company.Under this structure the company has continued as a major manufacturer and supplier of specialized tools to the automotive, industrial, electrical and electronic industries.When the company applied its electronics expertise to its long established clinical air pumps, this resulted in the first switch mode circuit being designed and patented in Australia. This circuit, which can operate on either 12Volt DC or 90 to 260Volts AC enabled suffers of asthma, emphysema, cystic fibrosis and other respitory ailments to be fully mobile as the pump could operate in a car and aeroplane or from any domestic electricity system around the world.As a tool designer and manufacture. Warren and Brown were approached by Telecom Australia (Telstra) to design and produce coax cable stripping tools. This has led to the development of many other tools for Telstra and other major companies and has provided a vehicle for Warren and Brown to enter the telecommunications industry with their widely accepted Optic Fibre Management System.Warren and Brown is well established in export markets throughout the world with its traditional range of automotive tools and equipment and is currently building an international reputation for its telecommunications product range as the business develops rapidly. Coincidentally, eleven of these products have been awarded the Telstra Australia Export Endorsement Scheme Approval. Our global markets include UK, Europe, Russia,U.S.A. and AsiaThe company changed its name from Warren and Brown and Staff to Warren and Brown Technologies in 1997 to continue its focus on international trade.Contents1 Achievements 2 Telecommunications 3 Precision Tools 4 External links // AchievementsExertech Exercise Monitoring Equipment, in conjunction with Repco Research and the Australian Institute of Sport.

Most of these items can be also used for other functions such as painting, drawing and technical drawing, but writing instruments generally have the unique requirement to create a smooth, controllable line.Another widely-used writing implement is the stylus used by blind users in conjunction with the slate for punching out the dots in Braille.[1]Contents1 Autonomous writing instruments 1.1 Without pigment 1.2 With inherent pigment 2 Assisted writing implements 2.1 Pens 2.1.1 Capillary-action dip pens 2.1.2 Fountain pens 2.1.3 Disposable pens 2.2 Mechanical pencils 2.3 Brushes 3 Accessories 4 References // Autonomous writing instrumentsThese have an inherent functionality in that their useful life corresponds to their length of their physical existence, i.e. they cannot "run out" and persist as useless objects.Without pigmentThe oldest known examples of writing were created by incising a flat surface with a rigid tool rather than applying pigment with a secondary object, e.g., Chinese jiaguwen carved into turtle shells. However, this may simply represent the relative durability of such artifacts rather than truly representing the evolution of techniques, as the meaningful application of pigment is attested in prehistoric cave paintings such as the ones at Lascaux.The ancient Sumerians and their successor cultures, such as the Babylonians, produced their cuneiform writing by pressing a triangular stylus into soft clay tablets, creating characteristic wedge-shaped marks. The clay tablets were then baked to harden them and permanently preserve the marks.Several other ancient cultures such as Mycenaean Greece also inscribed their records into clay tablets but did not routinely bake them; much of the Linear B corpus from Minoan Crete was accidentally preserved by a catastrophic fire which hard-baked those tablets. The Romans used lead styli with wax tablets which could be "erased" by rubbing the beeswax surface smooth again.In the modern era, hand held computers and certain other computer input devices use a stylus to enter information onto a screen by applying pressure rather than by depositing pigment.Words and names are still commonly inscribed into commemorative objects, such as the engraved winners' names on the silver Stanley Cup or the Gettysburg Address carved into the stone wall of the Lincoln Memorial, but the requisite tools are not exclusively considered to be writing instruments.With inherent pigmentThe original form of "lead pencil" was the lead stylus used by the ancient Romans, who also used it to write on wood or papyrus by leaving dark streaks where the soft metal rubbed off onto the surface. However, most modern "lead pencils" have a nonpoisonous core of greyish-black graphite mixed with various proportions of clay for consistency, enclosed within an outer wooden casing to protect the fragile graphite from being snapped apart or from leaving marks on the user's hand.White chalk has been traditionally used in schoolrooms to write on a main blackboard at the front of the room. In the 19th century, and indeed well into the 20th century, when paper was less readily available, individual students also wrote with chalk on their own small slates.Both pencils and chalk exist in variants which can create marks in other colors, but colored pencils and colored chalk are generally considered to be art supplies rather than writing instruments. Similarly, although very young children may use colorful wax crayons to write words into their pictures, writing is not considered to be the primary use of crayons.A wax pencil resembles both a crayon and a pencil in that it contains a brightly colored wax core within a protective paper casing, but its proportions are closer to that of a standard pencil. Wax pencils are primarily used to write onto nonporous surfaces such as porcelain or glass.Normal pencils, chalk, and crayons all share the characteristic that they cannot "run out". The useful life of these implements is closely linked to their physical existence. However, specialized accessories such as pencil sharpeners may be required to reshape the working end of the pigment core or to remove the outer casing from around the tip.Assisted writing implementsThese require the presence of an added pigment in order to write, and are useless when "empty".PensThe pen is the most common form of writing implement. It has a hard tip which applies ink to a surface.Capillary-action dip pensInitially, pens were made by slicing a suitable nib point from the end of a thin, hollow natural...(and so on)

The process was invented by chemists Lowell Schleicher and Barry Green, working for the NCR Corporation, as a biodegradable, stain-free alternative to carbon paper.[1] Early product literature piggybacked on NCR's corporate name by calling the paper No Carbon Required paper.Contents1 Operation 2 Dyes and chemicals 3 Health and environmental concerns 4 See also 5 References 6 External links // OperationCarbonless copy paper works in a fairly simple way. It consists of sheets of paper that are coated on the bottom and/or the top with micro-encapsulated dye or ink and/or a reactive clay.The back of the first sheet is coated with micro-encapsulated dye. The top of the middle sheet is coated with a clay that quickly reacts with the dye to form a permanent mark. The back of the middle sheet is also coated with the dye. The lowermost sheet is coated on the top surface with the clay with no coating applied to the back side.When someone writes on the sheets, the pressure from the point of the writing instrument causes the micro-capsules to break and spill their dye. Since the capsules are so small, the print obtained is very accurate.Carbonless copy paper was also available in a self-contained version that had both the ink and the clay on the same side of the paper.Dyes and chemicalsThe first dye used commercially in this application was crystal violet lactone, which is still widely used today. Other dyes and supporting chemicals used are PTSMH (p-toluene sulfinate of Michler's hydrol), TMA (trimellitic anhydride), phenol-formaldehyde resins, azo dyes, DIPN (diisopropyl naphtalenes), formaldehyde isocyanates, hydrocarbon-based solvents, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polyoxypropylene diamine, epoxy resins, aliphatic isocyanates, Bisphenol A, diethylene triamine, and others. The dyes in carbonless copy papers may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive persons.Health and environmental concernsUntil the 1970s, when the use of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) was banned due to health and environmental concerns, PCBs were used as a transfer agent in carbonless copy paper.[2][3] PCBs are readily transferred to human skin during handling of such papers, and it is difficult to achieve decontamination by ordinary washing with soap and water.[3] In Japan, carbonless copy paper is still treated as a PCB-contaminated waste.[4]Exposure to certain types of carbonless copy paper or its components has resulted, under some conditions, in mild to moderate symptoms of skin irritation and irritation of the mucosal membranes of the eyes and upper respiratory tract. In most cases, good industrial hygiene and work practices should be adequate to reduce or eliminate symptoms. These include adequate ventilation, humidity, and temperature controls; proper housekeeping; minimal hand-to-mouth and hand-to-eye contact; and periodic cleansing of hands.[5]The University of Florida has found that chronic exposure to carbonless copy paper can be hazardous to a person's health. Scientists[who?] found higher rates of sick leave and illness complaints at the office using large amounts of carbonless copy paper. Furthermore, a study published in Environmental Health Perspectives provides new evidence that exposure to paper dust and carbonless copy paper in office work are related to increased risk of adult-onset asthma.[6]See alsoSpirit duplicator AKA Ditto machine List of duplicating processes National Geographic http://www.thegreenguide.com/doc/ask/carbonless References^ http://www.appletonideas.com/pdf/Lowell_Schleicher_Dies.pdf ^ de Voogt P, Klamer J C, and Brinkman U A Th (December 1984).
