High altitude cooking is the opposite of pressure cooking in that the boiling point of water will be lower at higher altitudes due to the decreased air pressure. This lower temperature results in a lowered boiling point of water and may require an increase in cooking times or temperature and alterations of recipe ingredients. For home cooking, this effect becomes relevant at altitudes above approximately 2000 feet (600 meters). At that altitude, water boils at approximately 208oF (98oC) and adjustments sometimes need to be made to compensate for the reduced air pressure/water boiling point.

This method of cooking at high altitude can be compensated for by increasing cooking times.

Breads and cakes will usually require additional adjustments such as increased dry ingredients and higher oven temperature at elevations above approximately 3500 feet (1000 meters).
Methods used at high altitudes
From pressure cooking: A pressure cooker is often used by mountain climbers to compensate for the low atmospheric pressure at a very high altitude. Under these circumstances water boils at temperatures significantly below 100 and without the use of a pressure cooker, may leave boiled foods undercooked, as described in Charles Darwin's Voyage of the Beagle:
At the place where we slept water necessarily boiled, from the diminished pressure of the atmosphere, at a lower temperature than it does in a less lofty country; the case being the converse of that of a Papin's digester. Hence the potatoes, after remaining for some hours in the boiling water, were nearly as hard as ever. The pot was left on the fire all night, and next morning it was boiled again, but yet the potatoes were not cooked. I found out this, by overhearing my two companions discussing the cause, they had come to the simple conclusion, "that the cursed pot [which was a new one] did not choose to boil potatoes."

A grinder containing a small amount of herbs
The fine screen of a Space Case which will hold the larger pieces of herb. The bottom compartment is visible which is where the pollen will be collected.
A herb grinder (also called a "spice grinder", or just a "grinder") is a cylindrical contraption with two halves (top and bottom) that separate and have sharp teeth or pegs aligned in such a way that when both halves are turned, material placed inside is effectively shredded.
Some grinders also have two or three compartments instead of just one, with a fine screen separating the bottom compartment from the top. This allows fine particles such as pollen to pass through, but blocks larger plant material.
Grinders called "four-stages" are also popular. "Four-stages" are similar to regular grinders, but include a second fine screen to further separate "pollen" or other tiny plant matter.
There are also 5 stages grinders by many manufacturers now, and most are using an anodized process to coat the raw material they are made from.
Herb grinders are manufactured with the intent as culinary kitchen tools often used to prepare spices and cooking herbs for culinary preparation. It is also used to prepare tobacco, traditional herbs and Cannabis for smoking. A pollen-catching grinder will collect a more potent form of the medicinal plant known as kief, or pollen from traditional plants and herbs.
And Rickys top tip is: Don't Tap it together!

Norsk Hydro industry park on Her?ya
Her?ya is a peninsula in the municipality of Porsgrunn. It is located between the fjords of Frierfjord to the west and Gunneklevfjord to the east, at the mouth of Telemarksvassdraget, The name stems from the word hare because the large number of these that is said to have inhabited the previous island (?ya).
The peninsula features a large industrial park that was founded in 1928 and contains major facilities of Norsk Hydro, Yara, and REC (ScanWafer subsidiary). The area is served by the railway line Bratsbergbanen. 2,700 people work on the 1.5 km2 peninsula that has about 30 companies, most of which are subsidiaries of Norsk Hydro, including Hydro's research park with 350 employees. A populated area south of the peninsula itself which was initially housing for the Hydro employees, is also considered part of Her?ya as a suburb of the city of Porsgrunn.
Her?ya also has a local football club, participating in the Norwegian 6th division. The club stadium, Her?ya Stadion, has a capacity in surplus of 2000.

History
Originally an island that was used for agriculture, in 1928 Norsk Hydro decided to locate a new artificial fertilizer factory there, Hydro Porsgrunn, and in just 16 months both this factory and a shipping port for Norwegian saltpeter (calcium nitrate) were built. In the process, the narrow sound between the island and the mainland was mostly filled up, thus transforming the island to a peninsula. The reason Hydro wanted to establish itself in the Grenland region was the proximity to limestone, one of the necessary components in the fertilizer, Calcium nitrate. Norsk Hydro had previously had to build its fertilizer plants in Notodden (in 1907) and Rjukan (in 1909) because technology at that time didn't allow for efficient transport of electricity long distances from the power plants to the place of use. But in the 1920s technology had developed and it was possible to locate the plants close to the natural resources instad of close to the hydro electric power plants, that were located in the mountains in Northern Telemark.
Another important function was the establishment of a port for the export of fertilizer from Norsk Hydro's plants in Telemark. The Telemark Canal had been used for transport from Notodden from the start of operations there, while a railway, Rjukanbanen, had been built to the plant in Rjukan to Notodden. In 1916 this railway was extended as Bratsbergbanen to Skien, and then to Her?ya when it opened, replacing the need for the canal. Since then there has been opened other plants at Her?ya, including a production plant for PVC (in 1951).
Following the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany in April 1940 the German occupying force had plans to build Aluminium and Magnesium plants in Her?ya. The construction of the plant by Norsk Hydro in partnership with the Luftwaffe-operated Nordische Aluminium Aktiengesellschaft (Nordag) was however ended on July 24, 1943 when a bombardment by American B-17 Flying Fortresses completely destroyed the facilities, killing 55 construction workers. Later, in the fifties, Hydro would take up these plans and build a magnesium factory, which was rebuilt in 2002 to a metal recycling facility.
Post-WWII Her?ya
In the reminiscing book UT. Fra en oppvekst i forrige ?rhundre by historian Harald Berntsen, portrayals are given of incidents and milieus in Her?ya, from the time when his family moved there in 1951 (from downtown Porsgrunn), just before he was to begin school, and until 1960. The book explains among other things the way in which the different residential areas in Her?ya were related to status and hierarchy in the Hydro community. Berntsen's family lived in a flat on Torggata, on the peninsula proper, to the west of the Gunneklevfjord, in a recently built 4-flat house which the father had been given by Hydro.

On the other side of the street, the Germans have left a long two-storey barrack ... On both sides of Torggata down on the left, endless open yards with grass and weeds, thistles and nettles.

The Women's Trade Union League (WTUL) was a U.S. organization of both working class and more well-off women formed in 1903 to support the efforts of women to organize labor unions and to eliminate sweatshop conditions. The WTUL played an important role in supporting the massive strikes in the first two decades of the twentieth century that established the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union and Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America and in campaigning for women's suffrage among men and women workers.

Origins
WTUL float, Labor Day parade, New York, 1908.
The roots of the WTUL come from a British organization of the same name founded thirty years prior. The British League had originally supported the creation of a separate women labor movement but, by the 1890s, merged its own aims with the mainstream British labor movement and functioned as an umbrella organization of women trade unions. Its first American supporter was the socialist William English Walling who met with British WTUL leaders in 1902. He returned to the United States and began to generate support for a similar American organization
Organized in 1903 at the American Federation of Labor convention, the WTUL spent much of its early years trying to cultivate ties with the AFL leadership. By 1907, the WTUL saw its purpose as supporting the AFL and encouraging women membership in the organization. In its constitution that year, the WTUL defined its purpose in assisting n organizing women into trade unionsuch unions to be affiliated, where practicable, with the American Federation of Labor. In response, the AFL leadership generally ignored the League. When the WTUL decided to hold its annual conference at a different location than the AFL in 1905, Samuel Gompers was furious and refused to attend. Still, the League did push the AFL towards a pro-suffrage position and did manage to organize more women into the Federation than at any previous time.
It also drew on the earlier work of activists in the settlement house movement, such as Jane Addams and Florence Kelley, and budding unions in industries with a large number of women workers, such as garments and textiles. The WTUL leadership comprised both upper-class philanthropists and working-class women with experience organizing unions, including a significant portion of the most important female labor leaders of the day, including Mary Kenney O'Sullivan and Rose Schneiderman.
But the heyday of the League came between 1907 and 1922 under the presidency of Margaret Dreier Robins. During that period, the WTUL led the drive to organize women workers into unions, secured protective legislation, and educated the public on the problems and needs of working women.
Support for union organizing
After supporting a number of strikes in the first few years of its existence, the WTUL played a critical role in supporting the Uprising of the 20,000, the New York City and Philadelphia shirtwaist workers' strike, by providing a headquarters for the strike, raising money for relief funds, soup kitchens and bail for picketers, providing witnesses and legal defense for arrested picketers, joining the strikers on the picket line, and organizing mass meetings and marches to publicize the shirtwaist workers' demands and the sweatshop conditions they were fighting. Some observers made light of the upper-class women members of the WTUL who picketed alongside garment workers, calling them the "mink brigade". These distinctions split strikers from their upper-class benefactors as well: a contingent of strikers challenged Alva Belmont concerning her reasons for supporting the strike.
The strike was, however, less than wholly successful: Italian workers crossed the picket lines in large numbers and the strikers lacked the resources to hold out longer than the employers. In addition, although activists within the WTUL, including William E. Walling and Lillian D. Wald, were also among the founders of the NAACP that year and fought the employers' plan to use African-American strikebreakers to defeat the strike, others in the black community actively encouraged black workers to cross the picket lines. Even so, the strike produced some limited gains for workers, while giving both the WTUL and women garment workers a practical education in organizing.
The WTUL played a similar role in the strike of mostly male cloakmakers in New York City and men clothing workers in Chicago in 1910, in the 1911 garment workers strike in Cleveland and in many other actions in Iowa, Massachusetts, Missouri and Wisconsin. By 1912, however, the WTUL began to distance itself from the labor movement, supporting strike action selectively when it approved of the leadership's strategy and criticizing the...(and so on)

History
Development and construction
The original development team consisted of property owner USAA Real Estate Company, a subsidiary of the major insurance company, and Gaylord Entertainment, which owned the now closed Opryland USA theme park in Nashville, Tennessee. The original concept for Fiesta Texas was defined as "a destination market, musical show park" similar to that of Opryland USA. The primary focus on southwest music and culture rather than rides would be the unique element that would set the park apart from its competition.
When the initial ownership group began investigating a possible major theme park development in San Antonio, Texas, they faced significant competition in the Texas market. There were similar established Six Flags parks in Arlington and Houston as well as the nearby SeaWorld of Texas, which opened in 1988. Based on the competition, the development team believed the opportunity in San Antonio (an established regional leisure destination) was there and that the stable, slow growth direction of the theme park industry in the U.S. was in their favor.
Actual construction of the theme park took approximately 23 months, running from early 1990 to the park's opening in March 1992. Construction of the theme park was overseen by a joint venture of two general contractors, Lyda Inc. of San Antonio and Manhattan Construction Company of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Gaylord Entertainment managed and was a minority owner of the Fiesta Texas theme park. USAA Real Estate Company was the majority owner. Although attendance at the park met initial projections, Fiesta Texas was a money loser. After losing $16 million on the theme park in 1995, Gaylord sold its 14-percent stake back to USAA.
Change in ownership
In 1996, Time Warner took over management and operations of Fiesta Texas. USAA was the sole owner. Premier Parks, now known as Six Flags, purchased Fiesta Texas from USAA in 1998. Recent enhancements to Fiesta Texas include an expanded waterpark and boardwalk. On most nights the park closes with an animated laser show projected on the limestone quarry walls and fireworks.
For the 2008 season, the park received a new roller coaster, Goliath. This roller coaster is a Bolliger and Mabillard designed inverted coaster which was at Six Flags New Orleans known as "Batman: The Ride". Goliath will be the park's 8th coaster that is at the park, the 9th to actually operate at the park, and the 10th to have been announced by the park.

History
Originally a family business, established in 1833 on the banks of the Aker river in Oslo, Lilleborg expanded in 1842 to manufacturing hygiene products with the opening of "s?besyderiet", the "soap boilery". Here the company's manufacture of soft soap and bathroom soaps took place. In 1897, it became an aksjeselskap, and changed its name to A/S Lilleborg Fabrikker. In the final years of the 19th century, the company was offering a broad range of oils, bathroom, household and soft soaps. It was also the largest company of its sort in Norway, with more than 100 employees on roll.
At the end of the 1920s, Lilleborg had developed a close relationship with Denofa, a cooking oil producing company based in Fredrikstad. This culminated in 1930 with an agreement of cooperation between Lilleborg, Denofa, and the British company Lever Brothers (later Unilever), which had large ownership interests in the companies. As part of this agreement, Lilleborg acquired ownership and production of several well-known Lever Brothers brands, Sunlight being perhaps the foremost. Focusing strongly on brands throughout the 1930s, the company launched several of their strongest-selling brands of today in the years before the war, including Lano, Solidox, Blenda and Lux.
Unilever decided to sell their stocks in the company in 1958, but agreed upon another cooperation agreement which was to last for 20 years. This agreement was subsequently reformed on two occasions, and is still in effect - and will be until 2014. The following year, Denofa and Lilleborged merged to form A/S Denofa og Lilleborg Fabriker, which soon became a major player in the Norwegian hygiene market. The company then, in 1973, acquired Goma fabrikker, which in turned owned (amongst others) A/S Ello in Kristiansund.
In 1996, Lilleborg and Denofa split once more into two separate entities, in which Denofa continued the cooking oil activities, while Lilleborg was evolved into a pure brand-name manufacturer. In relation with this split, Lilleborg was reorganized as a company under Orkla Brands, a division of the Orkla Group, whilst Denofa was placed under Orkla Chemistry. In 1997, the activity by the Aker river ceased, while a new laundry detergent factory was opened in Ski.

Chain link fence with barbed wire at Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
A chain-link fence or wire netting or chain-wire fence is a type of woven fence usually made from galvanized or LLDPE-coated steel wire. The wires run vertically and are bent into a zig-zag pattern so that each "zig" hooks with the wire immediately on one side and each "zag" with the wire immediately on the other. This forms the characteristic diamond pattern seen in this type of fence.

Sizes and uses
In the United States, fencing usually comes in 20 rod and 50 ft rolls which can be joined by "unscrewing" one of the end wires and then "screwing" it back in so that it hooks both pieces. Common heights include 3 ft, 3 ft 6 in, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft, 8 ft, 10 ft, and 12 ft, though almost any height is possible. Common mesh gauges are 9, 11, and 11.5. For tennis courts and ball parks the most popular height is 10 ft.
The popularity of chain-link fence is due to its relatively low cost and ease of installation. A further advantage is that due to the open weave, chain-link fences are transparent, and do not obscure sunlight from either side of the fence. If a semi-opaque fence is desired, this can be achieved by the insertion of slats into the mesh.
Installation
The installation of chain-link fence involves setting posts into the ground and attaching the fence to them. The posts may comprise steel tubing, timber or concrete and may be driven into the ground or set in concrete. End posts, or terminal posts, must either be set in concrete or anchored to prevent leaning under the tension of a stretched fence. After the end posts are set, line posts are driven in equally spaced at intervals of 2.5-3.0m. The fence is then attached at one end, stretched, and attached at the other; the excess being easily removed by "unscrewing" a wire. Finally it is tied to the line posts with aluminum wire.
Chain-link fences are also called Cyclone or Hurricane Fences.
Development of chain link fencing
In the United Kingdom the firm of Barnard, Bishop & Barnard was established in Norwich to produce chain-link fencing by machine. The process was developed by Charles Barnard in 1844 based on cloth weaving machines (Up until that time Norwich had a long history of cloth manufacture).
Anchor Fence (established in 1891) was the first US company to manufacture chain-link fencing by machines using equipment imported from Belgium.

A lenticular lens is an array of magnifying lenses, designed so that when viewed from slightly different angles, different images are magnified. The most common example is the lenses used in lenticular printing, where the technology is used to give an illusion of depth, or to make images that appear to change or move as the image is viewed from different angles.

Lenticular printing
Main article: Lenticular printing
Lenticular printing is a multi-step process consisting of creating a lenticular image from at least two existing images, and combining it with a lenticular lens. This process can be used to create various frames of animation (for a motion effect), offsetting the various layers at different increments (for a 3d effect), or simply to show a set of alternate images which may appear to transform into each other.
Corrective lenses
Lenticular lenses are sometimes used as corrective lenses for improving human vision. A bifocal lens could be considered a simple example.
Lenticular eyeglass lenses have been employed to correct extreme hyperopia (farsightedness), a condition often created by cataract surgery when lens implants are not possible. To limit the great thickness and weight that such high-power lenses would otherwise require, all the power of the lens is concentrated in a small area in the center. In appearance, such a lens is often described as resembling a fried egg: a hemisphere atop a flat surface. The flat surface or "carrier lens" has little or no power and is there merely to fill up the rest of the eyeglass frame and to hold or "carry" the lenticular portion of the lens. This portion is typically 40mm in diameter but may be smaller, as little as 20mm, in sufficiently high powers. These lenses are generally used for plus (hyperopic) corrections at about 12 diopters or higher. A similar sort of eyeglass lens is the myodisc, sometimes termed a minus lenticular lens, used for very high negative (myopic) corrections. More aesthetic aspheric lens designs are sometimes fitted.
Lenticular screens
Screens with a molded lenticular surface are frequently used with projection television systems. In this case, the purpose of the lenses is to focus more of the light into a horizontal beam and allow less of the light to escape above and below the plane of the viewer. In this way, the apparent brightness of the image is increased.
Ordinary front-projection screens can also be described as lenticular. In this case, rather than transparent lenses, the shapes formed are tiny curved reflectors.

Unreferenced rumors from GM
68.33.251.127 said that:
General Motors is preparing to launch a revolutionary self-driving system on the 2008 Opel Vectra. The car will be capable of piloting itself at speeds up to 60 mph in heavy traffic without any input from the driver sitting behind the steering wheel. GM claims the system, called Traffic Assist, will make driving safer and more relaxing. It uses lasers, a video camera and plenty of computing power to "see" signs, bends, other vehicles and lane markings, and to control the engine, steering and brakes to keep the car in the correct position on the road and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front. The system is to become available on more models by the end of the decade initially other cars on the Epsilon platform, including the next Saab 9-3, Cadillac BLS and Saturn Aura. Whether it will be launched in the U.S. will depend on whether administrators deem it safe product liability laws are different in America. GM expects the package to be about 50-percent more expensive than conventional active cruise control radar equipment, which controls distances but cannot steer the car.
I, personally, doubt it. Moved it over here. Samfreed 13:33, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Seems to be based on this: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/spyshots/208774/opel_vectra.html . looks more hype than substance. A very similat text appears in 2005 press releases. Samfreed 13:37, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Tone of article
This reads like a report someone did for school. There's a lot of 'miracle' and 'marvel' type words, as well as odd first-person references to Italy.
In the actual article, "Miracle" = 0 times. "Marvel" = one mention, "seeming marvel" - sarcastic if anything. "First person" - Where? "Italy" - Twice, "Italian" - 3 times, it so happens that a lot is going on there. For comparison, "USA" is mentioned in that exact spelling 6 times, as "US" 7 times. Can you substantiate what you said? or were you discussing this talk page? In any case, the fully driverless car is in the future, if it will ever happen at all, and for that reason alone could be justly termed "a marvel". Anyhow, feel free to improve the article itself, or discuss specifics here - I just can't quite relate to what you said, I suppose. Please enlighten me, especialy on the "first person" stuff. Samfreed 22:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
Sam, I'm with you on this. I couldn't find any use of Italy in the first-person either. However, I have just edited out "some brave souls", which was rather POV, and removed the paragraph explaining the order of discussion (which would be useful in a magazine article, but not here). --Habap 11:51, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Habap - what about the quote: "Either a desert (free of any human or human-made obstacle), or a clearly-marked, well-painted (in our case Italian) motorway". In who's case? There are a few instances of this in this article where you need to read to get context rather than do a search and count the number of times a word occurs.
So much discussion about a 3-line paragraph! If anyone doesn't like the tone of the article, why not edit it for tone, POV, etc? It isn't locked, this is the wikipedia, just go ahead! I promise to review for accuracy, it is on my watchlist. If I have time later today I might even do it myself, now that I understand what the complaining is about - but Please just use the wiki!

Circular saw
I want to introduct something about .
This miter saw uses a circular saw mounted to cut at an angle
"Buzzsaw" redirects here. For other uses, see Buzzsaw (disambiguation).
The circular saw is a metal disc or blade with saw teeth on the edge as well as the machine that causes the disk to spin. It is a tool for cutting wood or other materials and may be hand-held or table-mounted. It can also be used to make narrow slots. Most of these saws are designed to cut wood but may be equipped with blades designed to cut masonry, plastics or metal. There are also purpose-made circular saws specially designed for particular materials. While today circular saws are almost exclusively powered by electricity, larger ones, such as those in "saw mills", were traditionally powered by water turning a large wheel.

Process
Typically, the material to be cut is securely clamped or held in a vise, and the saw is advanced slowly across it. In variants such as the table saw, the saw is fixed and the material to be cut is slowly moved into the saw blade. As each tooth in the blade strikes the material, it makes a small chip. The teeth guide the chip out of the workpiece, preventing it from binding the blade.
Characteristics
Cutting is by teeth on the edge of a thin blade
The cut has narrow kerf and good surface finish
Cuts are straight and relatively accurate
The saw usually leaves burrs on the cut edge
Invention
Various claims have been made as to who invented the circular saw:
A common claim is for a little known sailmaker named Samuel Miller of Southampton, England who obtained a patent in 1777 for a saw windmill. However the specification for this only mentions the form of the saw incidentally, probably indicating that it was not his invention.
Walter Taylor of Southampton had the blockmaking contract for Portsmouth Dockyard. In about 1762 he built a saw mill where he roughed out the blocks. This was replaced by another mill in 1781. Descriptions of his machinery there in the 1790s show that he had circular saws. Taylor patented two other improvements to blockmaking but not the circular saw. This suggests either that he did not invent it or that he published his invention without patenting it (which would mean it was no longer patentable).
Another claim is that it originated in Holland in the sixteenth or seventeenth century. This may be correct, but nothing more precise is known.
The use of a large circular saw in a saw mill is said to have been invented in 1813 by Tabitha Babbit, a Shaker spinster, who sought to ease the labour of the male sawyers in her community.
Types of circular saw
In addition to hand-held circular saws (see below), different saws that use circular saw blades include:
Miter saws (or Chop saw or Cut-off saw)
Radial arm saws
Saw mills
Table saws
Panel saws
Biscuit joiners
Pendulum saw
Brushcutter
Cold saws
Sawmill blades
Saw mills use very large circular saws, up to nine feet (2.97 meters) in diameter. They are either left or right-handed, depending on which side of the blade the plank falls away from. Benching determines which hand the saw is. Saws of this size typically have a shear pin hole, off axis, that breaks if the saw is overloaded and allows the saw to spin free. The most common version is the ITCO (insert tooth cut-off) which has replaceable teeth. Sawmill blades are also used as an alternative to a radial arm saw.
Cordwood saws
Cordwood saws, also called buzz saws in some locales, use blade of a similar size to sawmills. Where a sawmill rips (cuts with the grain) a cordwood saw crosscuts (cuts across the grain). Cordwood saws can have a blade from 20 to more than 36 inches diameter depending on the power source and intended purpose. Buzz saws are used to cut long logs (cordwood) and slabs (sawmill waste) into pieces suitable for home heating (firewood).
Most cordwood saws consist of a frame, blade, mandrel, cradle, and power source. The cradle is a tilting or sliding guide that holds logs during the cutting process. Some cordwood saws are run from a belt from a farm tractor power takeoff pulley. Others are equipped with small gasoline engines or even large electric motors as power sources. The mandrel is a shaft and set of bearings that support and transfer power to the blade. The frame is a structure that supports the cradle and blade at a convenient working height.
Cordwood saws were once very popular in rural America. They were used to cut smaller wood into firewood in an era when...(and so on)

Red acrylic paint
Acrylic paint is fast-drying paint containing pigment suspended in an acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints can be diluted with water, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted (with water) or modified with acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with the other media.

History
Acrylics were first made commercially available in the 1950s. These were mineral spirit-based paints called Magna offered by Bocour Artist Colors. Water-based acrylic paints were subsequently sold as "latex" house paints, although acrylic dispersion uses no latex derived from a rubber tree. Interior "latex" house paints tend to be a combination of binder (sometimes acrylic, vinyl, pva and others), filler, pigment and water. Exterior "latex" house paints may also be a "co-polymer" blend, but the very best exterior water-based paints are 100% acrylic. Soon after the water-based acrylic binders were introduced as house paints, artists (the first of whom were Mexican muralists) and companies alike began to explore the potential of the new binders. Water soluble artist quality acrylic paints became commercially available in the early 1960s, offered by Liquitex.
Techniques
Main article: Acrylic painting techniques
Acrylic artist paints may be thinned with water and used as washes in the manner of watercolor paints, but the washes are not re-hydratable once dry. For this reason, acrylics do not lend themselves to color lifting techniques as do gum arabic based watercolor paints.
Fluorescent acrylic paints lit by UV light.
Acrylic paints can be used in high gloss or matte finishes. As with oils, pigment amounts and particle size can alter the paint sheen. Likewise, matting agents can be added to dull the finish. Topcoats or varnishes may also be applied to alter sheen.
When dry, acrylic paint is generally non-removable. Water or mild solvents do not re-solubilize it, although isopropyl alcohol can lift some fresh paint films off. Toluene and acetone can remove paint films, but they do not lift paint stains very well and are not selective. The use of a solvent to remove paint will result in removal of all of the paint layers, acrylic gesso, etc.
Only a proper, artist-grade acrylic gesso should be used to prime canvas in preparation for painting with acrylic. It is important to avoid adding non-stable or non-archival elements to the gesso upon application. Acrylic will not form a stable paint film if it has been thinned with more than 30% water content. However, the viscosity of acrylic can successfully be reduced by using suitable extenders that maintain the integrity of the paint film. There are retarders to prolong drying and workability time and a flow release to increase color blending ability.
Painters and acrylic
Prior to the 20th century, artists mixed their own paints to increase the longevity of the artwork and achieve desired pigment load, viscosity, and to control the use of fillers, if any. While suitable mediums and raw pigments are available for the individual production of acrylic paint, due to the fast drying time, hand mixing may not be practical.
Acrylic painters modify the appearance, hardness, flexibility, texture, and other characteristics of the paint surface using acrylic mediums. Watercolor and oil painters also use various mediums, but the range of acrylic mediums is much greater. Acrylics have the ability to bond to many different surfaces, and mediums can be used to adjust their binding characteristics. They can also be used to build thick layers of paint: gel and molding paste mediums are sometimes used to create paintings with relief features that are literally sculptural.
Acrylic paints are the most commonly used in grattage.
Differences between acrylic and oil paint
The main difference between acrylics and oil paints is the inherent drying time. Oils allow for more time to blend colors and apply even glazes over underpaintings. This slow drying aspect of oil can be seen as an advantage for certain techniques, but in other regards it impedes the artist trying to work quickly. The fast evaporation of water from the acrylic paint film can be slowed with the use of acrylic retarders. Retarders are generally glycol or glycerin-based additives. In the case of acrylic paints, the addition of a retarder slows the evaporation rate of the water, and allows for more water to be added and the paint workable, until the retarder has left the film and the paint...(and so on)

The story opens in the town of Forrest Valley, where Mitchell Moinian - a boy with a love of cars - has moved to a new home with his family. His father, a DIY man, invites Mitchell and his younger brother Todd to buy some supplies at the hardware store in the family car - a worn-out car described as a "14-year-old, puke-green Chrysler LeBaron". During the drive, the brakes cut out, and the car crashes into a tree.
Sometime after, Mitchell convinces his father to answer a newspaper advert for a sports-car, and they travel to town to see it. Mitchell becomes uneasy when he notices the number of padlocks on the garage door, and even more curious when Mr. Douglas refuses to accompany them on a test-drive. Despite initial worries, Mitchell's father agrees to buy the car, much to Mitchell's delight.
One night, however, Mitchell feels compelled to sit in the car, when he begins to hear voices, inviting him into the car. As Mitchell is sat in the car, he suddenly finds that he is locked in, and he is rescued by a strange girl calling herself Marissa Meddin who acts oddly around Mitchell.
After that, several unusual incidents begin to happen whenever Mitchell is in or around the car. He and Todd almost freeze to death in it, the car drives itself away, and Mitchell finds disturbing messages in the glove compartment, but fails to convince his father about these incidents, and is unable to obtain any information about the car from Mr. Douglas.
One night, Mitchell finds himself being forced into the car, and discovers it to be possessed by the spirit of a young girl similar to Marissa, who died in the car after taking it for a joyride, and now wants to kill Mitchell so that he will be her companion forever. When the car crashes, however, the spirit-girl saves Mitchell's life, canceling out her evil and destroying her spiritual form.
Soon after the crash, Mitchell learns that the girl in the car was Marissa's twin sister, Becka, whose spirit had taken control of the car after her accident. Mitchell has difficulty in convincing his parents about the hauntings, but soon realizes that he and his father had been driving the car the whole time without a battery.
Characters
Mitchell Moinian - Main character, a car enthusiast
Becka Douglas - The evil spirit who possesses the car
Marissa Meddin - A strange girl who is Becka's twin sister (her relation to Becka Douglas suggests that her real surname is Douglas rather than Meddin)
Mr. Douglas - The seller of the haunted car
Todd Moinian - Mitchell's younger brother who is convinced that their new house is haunted
Mr. Moinian - An inept DIY man and Mitchell's father
Mrs. Moinian - Mitchell and Todd's skeptical mother
The Car
The car featured in the book has no comparison with any real-life car. Throughout the book, it is described as a silver-blue sports car similar to a Corvette, which is impossible because a Corvette is a coupe rather than a sports car. The clearest description of the car is a newspaper advertisement, describing the car as:
New model sports sedan...V-8, white leather interior
On the book cover, however, the car featured resembles a streamlined version of a Lincoln Continental Mark III, the same type of car featured in the 1977 movie, The Car.

The LA engines are a family of pushrod OHV 90 V-block gasoline engines built by Chrysler Corporation and factory-installed in passenger vehicles, trucks and vans, commercial vehicles, marine and industrial applications from 1964 through 2003. The combustion chambers are wedge-shaped, rather than the polyspherical combustion chambers in the predecessor A engine or the hemispherical chambers in the Chrysler Hemi engine. All are cast iron, except for the Viper V10, which is aluminum. LA engines have the same 4.46-inch (113mm) bore spacing as the A engines. LA engines were made at Chrysler's Mound Road Engine plant in Detroit, Michigan as well as plants in Canada and Mexico.

273 V8
The 273 (4.5L) was the first LA engine, introduced in 1964 and offered through 1969, rated at 180 BHp. It had a 3.625in (92mm) bore and 3.31in (84mm) stroke. It had a mechanical solid lifter valvetrain until 1968 when hydraulic lifters were introduced. A special version was also available in 1966 only - it used a 0.500-inch (12.7mm) lift solid-lifter camshaft, fabricated-steel-tube exhaust, and a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, producing 275 horsepower (1 hp/cuin). It was available in the Dodge Dart only, and the car so equipped was called the "D-Dart". A 235hp (175kW) version with a less aggressive camshaft and without the tube headers was available on regular production Darts, Valiants, and Barracudas from 1965 to '67, it was standard only in the Barracuda Formula S model.

318 V8
The LA 318 was a 318cuin (5.2L) relative of the A 318. Like the A 318, it has a larger bore at 3.91in (99mm) as well as a stroke of 3.31in (84mm). It appeared shortly after the 273, in 1967, and proved tremendously successful. A version of this engine was available until 1991 when its was superseded by the Magnum version (See below). It used hydraulic lifters and a two barrel carburetor for most of its production, though four-barrel Carter Thermo-Quad and Rochester Quadrajet carburetors were used in police applications starting in 1978. The 318 received roller lifters and a fast-burn cylinder head in 1985, and throttle-body electronic fuel injection for truck applications starting in 1988.

340 V8
As the Detroit power wars heated up in the mid-1960s, Chrysler decided to produce a small block V8 specifically designed for high performance applications. The goal was to have a lightweight, high output engine equally suited for the drag strip or an oval track[citation needed]. The result of this decision was the 340cuin V8. Chrysler's engineers increased the 318's cylinder bores to 4.04-inch (103mm) while keeping the 318's 3.31-inch (84mm) stroke. Anticipating higher loads resulting from racing operation, the engineers fitted a forged steel crankshaft instead of the cast nodular iron unit used in the 318. A 4-barrel carburetor was mated to a high-rise, dual plane intake manifold. This induction setup fed into a set of cylinder heads that are still considered[who?] one of the best of that era. The heads were high-flow items with big ports, and used 2.02-inch (51mm) intake and 1.60-inch (41mm) exhaust valves. An aggressive cam[vague] was fitted to take advantage of the much better breathing top end. 1968 4-Speed cars got an even hotter cam, but it was discontinued in 1969[citation needed]. The engine was equipped with hydraulic lifters[citation needed]. Power output was officially stated as 275hp (205kW) for the 4 barrel and 290hp (216kW) for the 6-pack version with triple 2-barrel carburetors. Using flat-top pistons, the 340's compression ratio was 10.5:1, placing it near the limit of what was possible on pump gas[citation needed]. The 340 also used heavy-duty parts such as a dual timing chain, windage tray and revised[vague] oil pump[citation...(and so on)

List of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episodes
"Dead Ringer" is the twentieth episode from the fourth season of the popular American forensic crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, which is set in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Plot summary
The plot summary in this article is too long or detailed compared to the rest of the content. Please edit the article to focus on discussing the work rather than merely reiterating the plot. (May 2008)
It is nighttime, and there is a marathon with police escorts to protect the runners. The race involves a relay, and the CSIs are participating. Grissom is driving a car next to Catherine as she runs, and she complains about the music he is broadcasting over his speakers, which includes "Chariots of Fire". Grissom suddenly veers off the road because he sees a flasher, which turns out to be connected to the dead body of a law enforcement officer from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Special Enforcement Squad (LASD SES). His corneas are glossy, which takes days to occur. However, he is wearing a number, which seems to indicate he was participating in the race. He has recent injuries on his knuckles. Grissom pulls a red fiber from the man's clothing bare-handed, saying "Collect it or lose it."
In the daytime, the CSIs are at the scene. Grissom finds a rock that appears to have blood on it. The man, Tim Coleman, had an ATM receipt in his pocket but no cash. Dr. Robbins says that the man was in excellent shape, with the exception of a large head wound. His liver indicated that he was dehydrated; this also explains the cloudy corneas. He had a high, but not lethal dose of blood pressure medication in his system. This drug could cause blurred vision, dizziness, and muscle weakness, which could have caused him to go off the course. However, it is not clear why the drug was in his system.
Greg finds that there was a withdrawal made from Coleman's account after he died. He and Nick find security video from the ATM, and they see the face of the man at the ATM.
Hodges identifies the red fiber as mercerized cotton, which is very strong. It is used for machine quilting and embroidery, which includes sports attire. Back at the race, Grissom notices that the members of the LAPD SWAT team, who won the race has red stitching on their jackets. One of the men in the jackets says that he has a black eye because he was trying to subdue Coleman at the race.
Nick interviews the man in the ATM video. He says he is innocent.
Meanwhile, Sara and Warrick investigate a death at a hotel. A dead woman on the floor has a Glock, a standard police issue gun, by her hand. There is also a dead man. By the presence of a condom, it seems that they had sex, and the case appears to be a murder-suicide. Both victims were cops.
Grissom tests Coleman's water bottle and finds traces of the blood pressure medication, so someone likely spiked his drink.
Catherine and Brass speak to the LA County team medic. He was in charge of keeping the team hydrated. He disliked Coleman but says he was not the killer.
After informing the male cop's, Manny Santana's, wife of his death, Sara and Warrick discuss their case. Hodges has analyzed the prints on the gun, and based on his findings, Sara suggests that someone else may have wiped down the gun and then planted the female cop's, Patricia Fielding's, prints on it. There was a third set of prints on the gun; they belong to another female cop.
Catherine finds that Coleman used creatine to bulk, and it caused dehydration. The combination of the creatine and the blood pressure medication caused an electrolyte imbalance and led to cardiac arrest. However, it does not seem that there was enough of the medication in the water to cause this.
Sara and Warrick investigate the home of the other female cop, Lydia Lopez, whose prints were at the scene. They find a ripped nightie, a man's wedding ring, and a woman's shoe. They interview Lydia at the station, and she says that she was having an affair with Manny, but she was surprised to hear that he was with Patricia. Lydia's husband, Archie, found Patricia and Manny, but...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about gymnastics supplies, white wine bottle, .

Synopsis
Twelve-year-old Robin Garr witnessed her friend Amelia's death at summer camp. Robin cannot cope with the death and blames herself. Further, her parents are always fighting. Mrs. Garr has just changed her job and moves to another city, but visits on the weekends; it's a big chance for her and she thinks the change will be good for the family. Robin is frustrated with this turn of events.
One day Robin meets a pleasant woman named Dorothy, who turns out to be a new neighbor. They soon become friends, but the closer they get, the more uncomfortable Robin feels. Dorothy begins to become obsessed with Robin; it is eventually revealed that she is really the mother of Amelia, the girl who died at summer camp. Dorothy cannot cope with the loss of her daughter and is trying to replace her by getting close to Robin. One day Dorothy helps Robin clean up and clandestinely places a walkie-talkie in her room. Each night, when her parents are putting her to bed, Dorothy listens in on their conversations. Mrs. Garr notices how weirdly close Dorothy has become to Robin, and is not comfortable with it; she realizes that Robin is also uncomfortable.
One night, Mr. Garr asks Dorothy to stay with Robin while he is gone. When Robin is disobedient to Dorothy, Dorothy hits her. Mr. Garr comes home to find both Dorothy and his daughter gone, and he sees a bit of blood on the doorframe. He calls his wife, and she comes home. They call the police and set out to find their little girl.
Meanwhile, Dorothy is trying to brainwash Robin. She has taken Robin to her home and begun to call her Amelia. When Robin refuses to obey the woman, Dorothy locks her in Amelia's old room.
Robin's parents come across Amelia's file at camp and track down her address, despite being told to wait at home. When Robin tries to escape from Dorothy (whose real name is Gretchen), she tries to hurt Robin by burning her arm. Finally, when Robin's parents arrive, Mr. Garr breaks down the window and the door to the bedroom. Gretchen insists that Robin is really her daughter Amelia. The detectives and police arrive shortly thereafter, removing Robin from Gretchen's care and giving her back to her parents.
While being arrested, the clearly mentally ill Gretchen says things like, "Amelia... want to play hide and seek? Yes, yes, I'll find you..." She continues to act this way as they take her away and place her in the police car. Robin and her parents then return home. Mrs. Garr decides to quit her job, deciding that she doesn't need it as much as she needs her family.

Lyceum TV
The RCA Lyceum TV was a commercial monitor/receiver with a large input/output panel on the back, and a 20-foot (6.1m) long grounded plug. During the mid-80s, RCA released the Colortrak 2000, a television identical to the Dimensia table-top model. Even though the Colortrak was considered the mid-range model, those bearing the name Colortrak 2000, were considered high-end, along with the Dimensia. The Lyceum TV, Dimensia, and Colortrak 2000 models all basically had the same chassis (a woodgrain veneer, or black laminate for some Dimensias, and fabric covered speakers on the sides of the cabinet). Many Colortrak 2000, Lyceum, and Dimensia TVs came packaged with a very large remote control, the Digital Command Center. There are several different versions of the Digital Command Center, but a main feature was that it could control an array of selected RCA components, all with the one remote--a universal remote only for RCA products, so to speak. The Dimensia version of the remote was called the "Dimensia-Intelligent Audio Video" and had identical buttons to the Digital Command Center.

Lyceum TV Performance Features
RCA Dimensia I/O panel
The RCA Lyceum TV has an array of high level features including:
Video Noise Reduction--this system reduces the appearance of noise in dark areas of the picture while maintaining full detail sharpness in bright picture areas.
Full Resolution Color--The Lyceum TV is the first receiver to process the full transmitted color signal for up to 3 times the color resolution of conventional TVs for certain critical colors.
Automatic Color Balance--Automatic circuitry monitors and balances the output of 3 electron guns. The system virtually elimates color "drift" and provides consistent, optimm color balance during tube warm-up and for the life of the tube.
Detail Processor--RCA's advanced design signal processing systems help provide the richly detailed and precisely accurate picture quality demanded of a high-performance commercial component. The picture resolution is increased and the circuitry intensifies tonal gradations, where black and white images meet so objects are "outlined" and picture detail is enhanced to make it stand out from backgrounds.
Digital Command Center--The RCA Lyceum TV came packaged with this matching remote, the most advanced and sophisticated remote control system. The Digital Command Center lets you activate the TV's functions and also controls for programming channel scan operation and the on-screen clock.
ChanneLock Tuning--a system that utilizes a precision quartz crystal to generate a stable and exact frequency reference for all VHF, UHF, and cable channels. When a channel is selected, digital control circuitry directs the tuner to the exact frequency required.
Automatic Picture Control Systems--The Lyceum TV utilized all of the built-in automatic picture control and convenience features found in the RCA Colortrak 2000 models including:
-Automatic Color/Fleshtone Correction--the set maintains color intensity and fleshtone hues to the settings you've selected on the TV. This circuitry monitors the hue of every picture element, watching for and adjusting critical fleshtone errors while also maintaining the accuracy of background colors.
-Automatic Contrast/Color Tracking--allows you to adjust the contrast, color, and overall brightness of the picture with a single control. When turning the picture control, the TV activates electronic tracking circuits that automatically keep contrast, color, and overall brightness in proper balance.
-Automatic Light Sensor--this acts as an "electronic eye" to monitor the amount of light in the room. When the light level changes, the light sensor's Light Dependent Resistor circuitry automatically adjusts the picture--brighter in a room with bright light and darker for a dimly-lit room.
-Automatic Sharpness Circuit--The RCA-designed sharpness control system tracks sharpness that is consistently matched to your preference.
-BlackLock Contrast Circuit--maintains black levels and picture detail even under high contrast conditions.

History
Makino is a global machine tool manufacturer. It was established in 1937 by Tsunezo Makino in Japan, developing Japan first NC milling machine in 1958 and Japan first machining center in 1966.
The North American branch of Makino was formed through the 1981 merger of the R. K. LeBlond Machine Tool Company of Cincinnati and the Makino Milling Machine Company of Japan. Resulting from the merger was the formation of what was then called LeBlond Makino Machine Tool Company.
In 1996 LeBlond Makino became Makino, and in 1997 LeBlond Lathe Ltd. was formed as a parts and servicing subsidiary.
Innovations
Throughout Makino history, the company has developed machine tool innovations. Makino developed the first NC Electrical Discharge Machine (EDM) in 1980. In 1984, Makino developed the first high-speed spindle.
In 1989, Makino's most popular segment of machines was introduced, Horizontal Machining Centers (HMC), with the release of their HMC, the A55. Makino is now a leading manufacturer of horizontal machining centers.
In 1990, Makino introduced Super Geometric Intelligence, the first servo-control software to provide higher machining speed, and Flush Fine machining, a method for cutting hardened materials. These developments, along with Makino reputation for accuracy and machine rigidity, led to the company becoming the leader in the milling of hardened materials (hardmilling).
The company developed the first drop-tank design wire EDM in 1994, winning several industry awards, and HQSF(High-Quality Surface Finish) technology with patented uSc additive in 1996, increasing the ability to finish parts without hand polishing when using a Ram EDM. In 2003, Makino developed the first conventional horizontal wire EDM that automatically threads and machines with a 0.02 mm diameter wire.
In 2003 Makino released the first of their MAG series, a 5-axis series of HMCs specifically designed for high productivity machining of complex aluminum monolithic parts for aerospace.
In 2006, Makino helped develop an efficient process to machine Compacted Graphite Iron, a material destined to be the future of diesel and automotive engines, using its a81M with a high-torque spindle. In the same year, the company developed HEAT(High Energy Applied Technology) for wire EDMs to increase speed in wire EDM-ing., and released the EDAC1 micro EDM Ram machine, capable of producing corner radii of 0.00019 inches (0.005 mm) and surface finish quality of 0.000024 inches (0.6 micrometre). Makino is also the only manufacturer of a horizontal wire EDM, the UPJ-2. In 2007 Makino introduced SurfaceWIZARD wire EDM technology, which allowed for the elimination of witness lines in stepped parts.
Today
Today, Makino is a leading manufacturer of high-speed CNC machining centers and EDM technology, offering horizontal machining centers, vertical machining centers, 5-axis machining centers, Ram and Wire EDM machines, and specialty machines for applications such as aerospace machining, micromachining, hardmilling, and fine hole machining. In addition, Makino provides integration services such as turnkey engineering and application support, automation systems and capital financing of manufacturing equipment.
Makino offers both online training and classroom training at its many Tech Center locations, and also broadcasts free online seminars, also known as webinars.
Makino machines feature patented technologies such as core-cooled spindles with under race lubrication, Super Geometric Intelligence (SGI), SurfaceWIZARD, High Energy Applied Technology (HEAT), HQSF, and SuperSpark.
Technology Centers for Makino are located in the United States (Mason, Ohio; Auburn Hills, Michigan; Waukesha, Wisconsin; Elgin, Illinois; Fountain Valley, California), Japan, Germany, Singapore, Italy, France, Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, China, Mexico, Brazil, and India, and are...(and so on) To get More information , you can visit some products about heater press machine, core drill machine, .
