RODALE NEWS, BOSTON, MA—At some point or other, you may have daydreamed about owning a farm, enjoying acre upon acre of row crops and meadows, maybe even waking up to freshly laid chicken eggs for breakfast. This farm fantasy may seem out of reach for most—especially those living in the city—but after a group of visitors mingled about Patti Moreno's urban organic farm in her small Boston backyard Wednesday, it's easy to see that urban farming isn't about space, just what you're motivated to do with it.
THE DETAILS: Moreno, founder and host of Garden Girl TV, and contributor to Organic Gardening magazine and Farmers' Almanac, routinely opens her home to visitors and neighbors and shares her extensive knowledge on urban gardens and farming. Wednesday, as part of this year's Natural Products Expo East trade show (it runs through Saturday in Boston; check back for more Expo reports over the next several days), she guided visitors through her raised-bed vegetable and edible flower gardens and small fruit orchard, around her 7,000-gallon pond and homemade chicken coop, and wrapped things up on her porch in front of kitchen and container gardens full of herbs and fresh lettuce. (She and her husband skim green duckweed, the world's smallest flowering plant, off the top of the pond and use the high-protein food to feed their chickens—talk about efficient!) Visitors also enjoyed a lunch featuring Moreno's urban-garden veggies, prepared by local chef Nadine Nelson, owner of Epicurean Studio.
WHAT IT MEANS: It's not about the acreage, but what you do with it. On less than an acre, Moreno not only provides food for her family and many of her neighbors, but also has helped build a strong sense of community through healthy food and urban gardens. She herself lost and kept off 70 "post-pregnancy pounds" by burning calories working in the garden, and then eating the healthy food she grows.
Don't have a lot of space? No worries. Here are some Garden Girl tips for the beginning urban gardener.

What issues affect children and young people today? On our blog, our volunteers, staff, leaders and the young people we work with share their experiences and tackle the issues. Let us know what you think – leave a comment or send us a message about what you find on our blog.
On your own: Young people's experiences of leaving care
For children who grow up in the care of their local authority, leaving can be a scary, daunting and confusing experience. At age 18 most of these young people find themselves in the world without the family support most young people have.
Local authorities are expected to continue to provide support for these young people up until age 21. They have duties to provide financial support, meet the young person's needs and ensure they have suitable accommodation.
But what do these young people actually experience when they leave local authority care and set up on their own?
I recently met with a group of four care-leavers that our Lancashire Children's Rights Service works with. The young people told me about their experiences leaving care and the challenges they face.
This lively and engaging group were certainly not short of things to say. While there were some negative comments, they appreciated the independence that came with leaving care.
'Able to create a future for yourself'
As one young person told me, leaving care meant being 'able to create a future for yourself by making your own decisions'.
However, they also shared some truly upsetting experiences. These included being left alone all day when moving flat with no food and no money, and being told by a health professional that their mental health issues 'were not valid'.
The main problems seemed to be the lack of support provided by leaving care teams and the lack of information given to the young people particularly around their benefit entitlement.
Moreover, only one of the young people was given a choice of accommodation or area when they left care. As one young person said, 'You don't have a say in where you want to live in or the area you want'.
'Everyone is unique and has unique needs'
We also discussed the age of leaving care.
While many young people increasingly rely on their parents and families for support into their mid (and even late) twenties, we expect those who may have had particularly difficult childhoods and have experienced the care system to leave care at the age of 18.
The care-leavers stated that they felt the age for leaving care should be between 21 and 25, and should depend on a person's needs and circumstances.
As one young person said, 'Everyone is unique and has unique needs'.

Display ads
Image ads
Image ads are graphical ads offered in several ad formats.
Image ads compete in the same auction for your ad space that text ads do. So, choosing to display both text and image ads increases the competition for ads to appear on your site, and may help you earn more. Google's technology determines on a page-by-page basis which ads are likely to make you more money, and serves those ads to your page.
Image ads are only displayed on content pages, not on AdSense for search results pages.
Supported ad formats for image ads
At this time, image ads are available in the following formats:
- leaderboard (728x90)
- banner (468x60)
- half banner (234x60)
- button (125x125)
- skyscraper (120x600)
- wide skyscraper (160x600)
- small rectangle (180x150)
- vertical banner (120 x 240)

- large rectangle (336x280)
- half page (300x600)
- mobile banner (320x50)
- large leaderboard (970x90)
You can see examples of each of these formats on our Ad Formats page.
Will I earn more with image ads?
We can't guarantee that you'll earn more by displaying image ads. However, by choosing to display image ads in addition to text ads, you can help ensure that you'll have all available advertisers bidding to appear on your site. Both text and image ads will compete in the same auction to display on your pages, and we'll automatically display the ad(s) that we expect to earn you the most.
Will image ads slow my page load time?
Google image ads are limited to 150KB in size, and should have a minimal effect on load time for most sites.

I found no thread that is actually dealing with my topic, so I decided to start a new one:
I use Dev-C++, downloaded the DirectX-DevPack and installed it. But I cannot find any tutorials on how to write a small program (can be command line only) that initializes the directsound routines and uses them for a small buffer playback of (let's say) a sine wave or a triangle wave.
I don't want to play a .wav file or something like that - there are plenty of tutorials for that out there.
I want to write a program allows me to fill the playback buffer with my own data and then play that buffer.
Is there anyone here who has done this before?

In addition to the father-daughter duo, four other area stars made first or second team on the squads selected by the Alabama Sports Writers Association, and three made honorable mention. The teams was released today by the ASWA.
While Strain averaged 21.3 points, seven rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, she was not the only local player to make the first team. Anniston's Quanetria Bolton got the nod in Class 4A after averaging 23 points and 13 rebounds per game.
BreAnna Thompson of Piedmont was named to the second team in Class 3A after averaging 19 points and 7.1 rebounds per contest. Also in 3A, Weaver's Chris English received his second consecutive all-state nod, being named to the second team after averaging 23.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.4 steals per game.
A North-South All-Star game selection, English's points per game average was the fifth highest in the state in any classification. Trae Dunson of Handley got a second-team nod in Class 4A after finishing third in the state in overall points, tied with English at 660. Dunson averaged 20.6 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.
There were also three players that received honorable mention recognition. Des Curry and Sharon Osterbind of Class 4A Jacksonville made the list while Woodland's Shanna Strain was also an honorable mention.

Have an MRI.
This experience will produce a surge of indignation, which could have dire consequences, possibly starting with handcuffs.
If you are mercifully unfamiliar with the process, imagine this: You have a slight backache, your doctor sends you for an MRI. Limping into the large walk-in freezer that houses the machine, you observe the plank upon which you shortly will be prone. It doesn't look exactly comfy and proves to be even worse than it looks.
Once you are situated, the plank slides slowly into a space capsule built for a small monkey. With your hands folded (maybe in prayer), you await the beginning of what turns out to be an assault, which can only be compared to combat. The capsule is surrounded by the combined percussion sections of the Jacksonville State, Alabama and Auburn marching bands and the sound is filtered through a system that would not be found in Madison Square Garden.
Now, I realize I am using a lot of metaphors here, but describing this experience requires just about everything dreadful I can think of. First of all, the machine is the worst invention since the Rubik's cube. Very poor design, if you ask me, which the esteemed inventor, Raymond Vahan Damadian, did not. I discovered this hapless object of my indignation on Google.
There's even more you can find out on Google, so I looked up the MRI machine: This dastardly thing is a product of General Electric. Well, no wonder poor Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO of GE, was slapped with a 24 percent reduction in his annual compensation in 2011. He had to struggle through the year on $11.4 million. Victimized stockholder revolt?
So, let's return to the suffering patient lying on the plank. If you can believe it, there is a second assault. One look up at the ceiling produces shocking evidence that no one in the medical facility except the patient has gazed upward in quite some time (this is an obvious deduction). It is definitely not encouraging to be in a presumably clean environment that has dust bunnies clinging to the ancient ceiling tiles. And don't forget that dead bug in the light fixture.
Easy to see, isn't it, that the patient is vexed by these attacks on the sensibilities? As the subject of several MRIs, I urge you to avoid this at all costs. For, as I am sure you have guessed, the MRI is only the drum major to the array of instruments to make your acquaintance over the next few weeks. It is not rocket science to figure out that a machine that costs up to $3 million is not going to diagnose only a hangnail.
OooooooohNooooooo. You will observe the multitude of machines and treatments, which might make you long for the simple annoyance of the MRI. Your outrage will grow. Indignation will follow. You will be energized.
You see what I mean about handcuffs?

Driving in Costa Rica:
To travel around Costa Rica, it's a great choice to travel on your own with a rented car. You can get wherever you want without pending of timetables or other people.
But there are several things you should know when renting a car to spend a great vacation time.
We recommend very much to take a car rental with full- insurance. This will cost an extra (+ 14 $ more or less each day of rental) but you are full- protected. Although there are limitations as well- understandable. You are not allowed to drive drunk and if you drown the car in the sea or a river the insurance will not pay. So take care, because sometimes you have to cross a river.
We recommend to rent a small 4*4 vehicle, like the Suzuki Jimmy. This is one of the cheapest solutions, although with a very small machine, it is a great car for off-road. But pay attention. If you rent a car via Internet (this looks cheaper but you have to look very well) they never promise the exact car. They will say, a Jimmy or similar. And the similar often are very small tins without 4 * 4.
As well, take care if basic insurance (around 20$ daily) and taxes are included in the package. Please contact us to order a special fare with all insurance included and the exact car you want to rent.
Gas is around 1,2 $ the liter.
You have to take care with speed limitations. On Main- Streets there are often traffic- policemen (transitos) taking the speed and charging expensive. Since September 2011 they installed cameras taking the speed on several main streets in the central valley. So take care.

Durham >Food & Dining > Kemp's Seafood House
115 Page Pt Cir, Durham, NC | Directions 2770335.930965 -78.808958
Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm, Sun-Thu: 11am-9pm
Kemp s is gone! It has been replaced by another group with a new name which would have been okay - BUT - they changed the menu! So don t go where Kemp s was if you re looking for a favorite because it might not be there anymore. We looked at their new menu and didn t stay because what we wanted was no longer on the menu (fried shrimp). Don t get me wrong this new place might be fine - it s just not Kemp s!
Not Open ! – A group of friends wanted to have lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Websites say it is open at 11am. Well they are wrong! Doesn't open until 5pm. All websites need to be updated with this information.
OUTSTANDING SERVICE – I hosted a birthday party at Kemps last night (4/27/11)... The service was great, and the food was outstanding... Great place for family, fun, and events. They provide over the top customer service!! I think the seafood was a great price! We had apprx. 40 guest and everyone loved the food.... In this case you really get what you pay for... Thank you Kemps, for making it a perfect night for our guest....
Good seafood – My husband and I went to Kemp's last Sunday. This was the first time we had been in a couple of months. The food was great as always but the prices had really gone up. The lunch price of $9.99 we usually pay for the grilled and marinated shrimp has gone up $4.00 to $13.99. The dinner price has gone from $13.99 ro $17.99. This is quite an increase. They have been trying to increase their business but such a huge price increase is sure not going to help them. Needless to say, we will not be dining there very often.
Got Towed.....Arggggh Matey – Just a word of warning. If you leave your car parked in the lot at Kemp's, it will be towed and you will have to deal with a real jacka$$ at Biggs&Watson towing. $175, costly mistake. So, if you have a friend that has had too much to drink and doesn't need to drive....better get someone to come back to retrieve their vehicle. It won't be there in the morning.
First time in a 1 1/2 years. Why did I wait?? – WOW! My husband and I have not been to Kemp's in about a year and a half. If you have not been in a while you will not believe how great the place looks!
As soon as we opened the door the hostess and I think the manager greeted us so warm and kindly! We had a rather large group with us so we were expecting a long wait, but suprisingly we didn't have to wait long at all. And I just want to emphasize how accomodating they were! Once we were at our table we had barley sat down before the hushpupies arrived. HOT HOT HOT hushpuppies were served. They are so good with butter. I could not believe the service that we recieved with a large group. The order was taken promptly, all of our orders were correct, all of the food was hot and delicious. We had no problem getting beers and wine refilled and there was always someone around filling up our tea's and soft drinks. I also want to make a note my husband is not a seafood eater he got their ribeye steak of which I had to try a bite. It was unbelieveable, as good as any steak I have ever had at a nice steakhouse. End of story. I have never taken time to write any type of review or comment, but we all in our group were so impressed with our entire evening at Kemp's Seafood House I wanted to pass on our good experience.
Good Food Good People – first time me and my family it was all good from the building, the staff and the seafood. We will be back.
as good as always – First time we tried Kemp me and my husband last night, it was one of the best dining experience in a while. the quality of the food is far superior than other seafood places, and the prices are very reasonable.our server was very friendly and pleasant. We just found our new favorite place to eat at.
Still the best – Have not been to kemp's in a while, we tried it last night i got my usual house platter, my wife had tuna platter,
one of the best meals we've had in a while.
Service with a smile! – I visit Kemps often whenever I am in the mood for crab legs! I must say that every time I go the staff memebers are very pleasant and courteous to all guests. Its nice to go and have a meal there when you are surrounded by smiling faces who are there and ready to help you!

Buy your SH___ and LEAVE! – Almost non-existant customer service. Just a long line and indignant low paid scant work force. Hate it; but I do go and endure the durth.
I got scammed too!!! OUTRAGEOUS IDIOTS – I was looking for a phone number to call this store and have them fix my charges, and I ran across this terrible review describing what JUST happened to me.
I went to Micheals and bought some Vinyl words that were on sale for $6.99!
When they rang up all my stuff they charged me $50.
I thought, there is no way.
So I looked at my reciept and they charged me 27 dollars for the letters.
I said you must be joking. The stupid girl asked her manager who said "They can't be more than $15. Charge her $15"
She looked at me stupidly, Would you like me to put money back on your card?
So she had me swipe my card again, and supposedly put my money back.
The next day I check my bank account and there is still the $50 charge with no money returned.
Poor customer service – I called ahead to find out if they had a certain product - it was a leather Pioneer photo album (not vinyl). I was told yes, they had it. I asked "Are you sure, do you want to check? I don't want to waste gas and money coming there if you don't have it". I was told, yes, yes, we have it.
Sure enough, I went to that store and they didn't have what I had called about! I was very mad about the whole thing.
I ended up buying from Amazon, so much easier...
Complete lack of professionalism and customer service. – I've done a lot of framing business and incidental supply business with Micheal's in the past, as my store is in the same complex as them. No longer. Without realizing that she was my wife, Micheal's gave her the runaround on a framing job for a full month, then finally got it done, and done poorly I may add. The only reason it was done is because she was in the store and wouldn't leave until it was finished - 3 1/2 weeks after their initial promise date.
It was, unfortunately, a Mother's Day present for her aunt, and they knew it. They didn't get it done until a week after Mother's Day. Wringing her hands of the terrible experience, my wife just took it and delivered it to Ogden.
I just got off the phone with them, and they refused to give us any sort of partial refund for the trouble and the horrid looking final product.
Too bad for them, because a framing store just opened up across Highland Drive. I think they will be getting some money soon!
Running a Scam? – I used to enjoy going to Michaels but my last trip there left a sour taste in my mouth. I tried to purchase a portfolio case for $35 (that was the price listed on the shelf) but when I got to the register it rang up for $70! They did a price check and said the one I had just bought was $70 and that they were out of portfolio cases for $35. They gave me no explanation and did nothing to try and solve the problem. (I ultimately just asked them to refund the $70.) Watch the prices carefully when you check out!

The Royal has a distinguished past. Thomas Henry Huxley, for instance, gave a series of public lectures there about Darwin's theory. Their Christmas Lectures, intended for young people, began in 1825 and have featured a number of luminaries extending from Michael Faraday to Richard Dawkins and David Attenborough. Sir David and others who have lectured there wrote a letter to the Times which, though behind a paywall, is reported in the Telegraph:
The signatories of the letter, who have all given lectures at the Royal Institution, said the building had "nurtured some of science's exciting and beneficial achievements".
They wrote: "The Royal Institution has been home to some of the most important of Britain's many contributions to science and engineering: the discovery of ten chemical elements, the first practical demonstrations of electricity, 14 Nobel Prizes and countless inventions.
"Since the start of its pioneering public lecture programme, through which science first entered popular culture, this building has not only nurtured some of science's exciting and beneficial achievements, it has beamed them out to the world."
It said that millions of families still watch the annual Christmas Lecture on television, more than 200 years after it was first given.

Detroit Spoils Horizon League Opener for Crusader Women
Related Links
Sunday, September 26, 2010
Valparaiso opened its 2010 Horizon League slate on Sunday at Titan Field in Detroit, Mich., but ended up on the short end of a 2-0 setback against the Titans of Detroit.
The Titans started the scoring early, finding the back of the net just five minutes into the match. Kaitlyn Quarrell served a cross from the end line across the goal box and Sarah Dzuris connected on the receiving end for her third goal of the season.
"We you are on the road in conference play and give away a goal in the first five minutes you make it tough on yourself," head coach John Marovich said. "You then have to chase the game and unfortunately we were never able to get the tying goal."
Valpo trailed just 1-0 at halftime despite being outshot 8-2 during the first 45 minutes.
The Crusaders put more pressure on the Titans in the second half, but could not find the back of the net. Valpo outshot Detroit 5-4 in the stanza, and forced Titan netminder Nora Abolins to make a pair of saves.
Detroit (4-3-3, 1-0 Horizon) added an insurance goal with 16:05 to play as Lauren Roffey picked up a loose ball rebound in front of the net following a save by Crusader goalkeeper Kristen Manski (Saint Charles, Ill./North H.S.).
"We came out the second half attacking a little more, but they got that goal late," Marovich added. "We now just have to be ready to come back out next Friday and Sunday."
The Titans finished the match with a 12-7 shot advantage while both Manski and Abolins made three saves each. Both sides had four corner kick opportunities on the afternoon as well.
Valparaiso (4-4-3, 0-1) has wrapped up its four-match road trip and will return to Eastgate Field on Friday afternoon to host Loyola (Chicago). Kickoff is set for 4 p.m.
Match Notes: Not one Crusader had more than one shot attempt on the afternoon … Valpo has yet to win a Horizon League opener since joining the conference in 2007 … Detroit leads the all-time series 5-2.

Thankfully, Tim Tebow is still Tim Tebow.
One of the most beloved and decent athletes in history canceled his April appearance at a controversial Dallas church headed by a hate-filled pastor. Tebow's scheduled appearance at the church was the topic of my column in Wednesday's Orlando Sentinel.
On Thursday, Tebow tweeted that he would no longer honor the April 28 speech at the First Baptist Church of Dallas where inflammatory pastor Robert Jeffress spews a message that is anti-Catholic, anti-Semitic, anti-Mormon, anti-Muslim, anti-gay, anti-Obama and pretty much anti-everything that is not the First Baptist Church of Dallas..
"While I was looking forward to sharing a message of hope and Christ's unconditional love with the faithful members of the historic First Baptist Church of Dallas in April, due to new information that has been brought to my attention, I have decided to cancel my upcoming appearance," Tebow said in a statement released on his website. "I will continue to use the platform God has blessed me with to bring Faith, Hope and Love to all those needing a brighter day. Thank you for all of your love and support. God Bless!"

Great Value! – I totally get full there and the waiter's are actually Hispanic so you know that it's a real Mexican restaurant. Even though I'm a vegetarian, I still can eat here and leave satisfied with the food. ^^
WOW! REAL CHILE RELLENOS!!! – A native of southern California, I was highly disappointed with "Georgia" Mexican food! I've been to many Mexican restaurants around the Atlanta area and found "less than mediocre" the norm. The worst part for me are the "chile rellenos" they serve in most Georgia Mexican food restaurants. They are nothing but a piece of bell pepper atop a mound of ground beef and topped with melted american cheese product (YUCK!). NOT AT LAS PALMAS! The chile rellenos in their very reasonably priced (under $8) combinations are cheese stuffed poblano peppers coated in egg and fried! The only thing I wish they'd fix is their red sauce recipe, which tastes more tomato-based, than chile-based. Ask for the tomatillo sauce instead and you can't go wrong (if you like spicy). BRAVO LAS PALMAS!!!!!!

Champagne has the taste of an apple peeled with a steel knife. ~ Aldous Huxley
A sparkling wine or champagne provides the crispness and effervescence that can cut through complex flavors and scrub the palate — or at least that's Hank Zona's interpretation of Huxley's beautiful analogy.
Zona, who runs Swirl Wine Events, wants to school you on champagnes and sparking wines — his favorite wines, he says — in time for you to make an educated decision for bringing in the New Year with the perfect bubbly. To that end, Zona recently devoted an entire episode of his show The Grapes Unwrapped to sparkling wines. The Grapes Unwrapped is broadcast on and is available anytime on YouTube — but, in this instance, is also attached here on Patch.
We recommend you watch the episode, enjoying Zona's insightful commentary and incredible knowledge all delivered in the beautiful space at in Maplewood.
But if you don't have time to watch in full, here's our recap:
56% of Americans say they don't know what constitutes a good champagne or sparkling wine.
First, they need to understand sparkling wine vis-a-vis champagne: While all champagne is sparkling wine, not all sparkling wine is champagne.
Champagne represents only about 10% of sparkling wine production. Only sparkling wines grown in the Champagne region of France — and utilizing the methode champenoise — can call be called champagne by law.
Prosecco — and Italian sparkling wine made under a less labor-intensive method — is actually the fastest growing segment of the sparkling wine market, and it presents a good value, says Zona.
Zona also likes cavas — Spanish sparkling wines. They use the same method as champagne, but, since labor is cheaper in Spain and the cost of producing sparkling wine is cheaper, they also present a great value.
Some American-made sparkling wines such as Schramsberg or Gruet are also very satisfying and affordable. Gruet, in fact, is made in New Mexico by a champagne-producing family that wanted to replicate the taste on American soil.
While you're out shopping for a champagne, here's some terminology to help you out: Brut, demi sec and doux refer to the sweetness of the sparkling wine with brut being the driest and doux the sweetest.
Also, while most sparkling wines are white or rosé, there are some satifisfying reds, like the sparking Shiraz of Australia of the Italian Lambrusco. Zona says these are great for drinking with sturdier, heartier meals, but he sees the reds as more of a wine pairing than a sparkling wine pairing.
Zona says he drinks champagne or sparkling wine (whites and rosés) with anything that you would normally drink beer with — pizza, burgers, Asian food — since the effervescence has a clean, refreshing effect.
If you're having birthday cake, cookies or sweets, Zona recommends the Gruet demi sec. With pancakes (for New Year's Day, of course!), Zona says try a sparkling rosé from Austria called Durnberg.
While there is much more information in the episode, we know you need to get shopping, so here are Zona's picks for sparkling wine:
- Gruet
- Castellar Cava
- Gloria Ferrer
- Roederer Estate
- Lucien Albrecht Cremant d'Alsace
- Opera 02 Lambrusco
- Mirabelle by Schramsberg
- Schramsberg
- Iron Horse
Some Favorites (who's treating?):
- Pierre Gimmonet
- Billecart-Salmon
- Pommery
- Oudinot
- Mountadon
- Pol Roger
- Bollinger
We'll end with another quote cited by Zona in the episode:
I drink champagne when I'm happy and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I'm not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it - unless I'm thirsty. ~ Madame Lilly Bollinger

Compressed air equipment is rarely installed with instrumentation that can supply a baseline to monitor system energy performance and related expenses. End-users are often blind to the real operating costs—and may be unaware of the consequences of the problems plaguing their systems and associated compressed air-powered machinery. Studies have shown that a few hours of basic awareness training can go a long way in increasing system efficiency. This "efficiency" training often generates significant side benefits in the form of a more productive and reliable system due to more stable pressure, improved compressed air system reliability and increased plant productivity.
Back to the question
So, how much is your compressed air system really costing your organization? Odds are that your management information system can track and control your pencil and paper clip purchases down to the penny, but to put an exact number on the cost of your compressed air, well, that's another story…
If you go to your compressor room and look around, you may understand the reason for the lack of information. The room will probably be a noisy, hot and dirty place. The equipment within will have assorted instrumentation options to observe system temperatures, pressures and operating hours, but any indication of flow and power consumption will be missing.
Track down your operators and ask about their operating strategy and compressor-control coordination plan. More times than not, the question will be met with a blank stare. The reality of the situation will be that the plan and coordination strategy will be left to the default settings of the compressor manufacturer—or up to a well-meaning, but untrained operator.
Air is not free
Many end-users think air is free: They simply don't know what it costs to operate their compressors, nor can they assess the cost of using 10, 50 or 100 cubic feet per minute of something they think of as "free." Many are surprised to discover that the operating costs throughout the life of compressed air equipment greatly exceed the initial purchase price—in fact, in most cases, energy cost alone in the first year of operation will exceed the purchase price of the equipment. It's essential to determine the current annual costs in dollars and communicate the situation to all involved. In this way, better decisions can be made on new equipment selection and mode of operation of existing equipment.
Fig. 1. Energy cost comparison of air vs. electric (Source: Compressed Air Challenge)
Compressed air vs. other energy sources
Although compressed air is a necessary part of most plant operations, it is not the most efficient source of energy in a plant (see Fig. 1). To operate a 1 hp air motor requires 7-8 horsepower of electrical power into the compressor. At higher-than-typical pressures, even more power is needed.
Annual energy costs for a 1 hp air motor vs. a 1 hp electric motor in a 5-day-per-week, 2-shift operation, at $0.05/kWh is $1164 (compressed air) vs. $194 (electric). This means the compressed-air-powered motor can cost more for the same power output—significantly more if plant pressures are higher than the estimated level of 90 psi.
The cost of poor system performance
Systems with leaks waste money: Leaks make a system less efficient and increase the cost per unit of air produced. Figure 2 shows the cost of leaks through a perfect orifice in a compressed air system.
Fig. 2. The costs of air leakage (Source: Compressed Air Challenge)
Note: Costs calculated using electricity rate of $0.05 per kWh, assuming constant operation, 100 psig and a typical compressor.
The cost of operating (first-cut estimate)
You can do a first-cut estimate of your compressed air costs to find out what's at stake by adding up the nameplate horsepower of your normally running compressors and doing some simple ratios. The cost of operating a 100 hp compressor for 8760 hours at $0.10/kwh is approximately $68,790. At 4000 hours and $0.08/kWh, the cost is 4000/8760 x $0.08/$0.10 x $67,790—or $25,130. (For instructions on more detailed calculations, refer to Compressed Air Tip Sheet 1 "Determine the Cost of Compressed Air for Your Plant," in the online library at www.compressedairchallenge.org.)
Rationale for compressed air
Almost every sector of the economy utilizes compressed air systems, and there are thousands of different uses for them. Consider just the manufacturing sector, which relies on compressed air for powering pneumatic tools, packaging, automation equipment, conveyors and control-system applications, among others. Many manufacturing industries also use compressed air and gas for combustion and process operations such as oxidation, fractionation, cryogenics, refrigeration, filtration, dehydration and aeration.
There are countless applications where compressed air is the best overall solution. If, however, other, more cost-effective sources of power are available, compressed air is probably being used inappropriately: While ambient or atmospheric air may be free, its compressed form is
expensive. When compressed air is needed to make a product, it should be used wisely. If you want to cut costs, you need to be aware of these very real compressed air facts of life:
The typical system
A compressed air system consists of a supply side (that includes compressors and air treatment), as well as a demand side (that includes distribution and storage systems and end-use equipment). A properly managed supply side will result in clean, dry, stable air being delivered at the appropriate pressure in a dependable, cost-effective manner. A properly managed demand side minimizes wasted air and uses compressed air for appropriate applications. Improving and maintaining peak compressed air system performance requires addressing both the supply and demand sides of the system, as well as their interaction (as shown in the opening image of the article).
Hundreds of manufacturers produce the various pieces of equipment that are used in a compressed air system—from compressor packages to end-use tools. There are generally many different options for accomplishing a given task with compressed air, and it is important to apply the equipment properly. Often, if a system is performing poorly, it is not because the equipment is faulty, but because it has been applied improperly or poorly maintained. Almost every compressed air system (from a modern one in a 2-year-old plant to equipment that has been modified and updated over a 40-year span) has room for performance improvement.
Take a systems approach…
Improving and maintaining peak compressed air system performance requires not only addressing individual components, but also analyzing both the supply and demand sides of the system and how they interact (see Fig. 3). This practice is often referred to as a "systems approach" because the focus is shifted away from components to total system performance. Taking a systems approach usually involves the following:
Understanding your system
U.S. Department of Energy (USDOE) research has shown that 75% of compressed air equipment operators have received no formal training in system efficiency. With this level of education (and lack of awareness regarding the true costs of compressed air and what can be done about them), it's not surprising that a significant number of these systems run inefficiently. System operators need to understand their system problems—as well as the solutions they can use to deal with them.
One way to address this need is efficiency-awareness training. The Compressed Air Challenge (CAC) has developed two levels of training to aid in this type of awareness: "Fundamentals of Compressed Air Systems" and "Advanced Management of Compressed Air Systems." In 2010, the organization launched Fundamentals of Compressed Air Systems WE (web-edition).
These highly rated sessions have been proven by USDOE studies to encourage positive system changes. A very high portion of end-users reported using materials directly from the training to make efficiency improvements to their compressed air systems. In fact, 76% percent of the sample end-user representatives reported that they had made significant capital and/or operating improvements to their compressed air system since attending the CAC training. As a point of reference, compressed air system efficiency experts find that, for the typical compressed air system, 30% of system energy usage can be saved through cost-effective measures.
The studies also showed that end-users who implemented compressed air system efficiency measures also experienced significant non-energy benefits. End-users reported experiencing benefits such as reduced downtime, improved system reliability, reduced moisture and contamination in the system air, more consistent system pressure and restored delivery of adequate pressure to all system components.
It's your move
You are invited to start your journey to greater understanding of your compressor air system cost and what to do about it. The CAC Training Calendar provides links to registration and location information for training sessions, including other in-person sessions in various parts of the country. This calendar and other resources are available on the CAC Website, www.compressedairchallenge.org. UM

Go to their site and watch the youtube video on how they software unlock the iphone.
Hmm...What do ya think?
Ops double posting. My mistake, please delete
Well that's not what I would call conclusive... At all, but at least they're posting something?
yea until i see a video that is zoomed out to show the iphone during the unlock, i wont believe it....i need to see a zoomed out video that zooms in to show the iPhone not accepting the vodafone sim they used, then zooming out and still showing the iPhone thru the process, them plugging it in and going thru the unlocking software, then zooming back into the iPhone showing them put the vodafone sim in and it works....in this video at many points the iPhone wasn't showing..they could have easily replaced it with a geohot iPhone.
who says that iphone wasnt already unlocked when the theatrical procession started?
These guys are located in the UK or Belfast? Anyway, I think they should first sell the software to users outside of the US. The exclusivity is signed with AT&T in the US, I don't think they have the rights to pursue uniquephones if they are selling the software to non-us iphone users. And they should do this quick before Apple sign on exclusive service providers in Europe and Asia.
My 2 cents
I don't believe them. Their "video proof" actually proves nothing. It seems it's just hardware unlocked phone. Otherwise why they didn't show to TUAW guys how they made it? Carrier menu in preferences? My hardware unlocked phone shows it too. So don't bother that 48-72 hours you can get it working faster.
One more: it seems 1.0.3 update will not break that hack I've unlocked with 1.0.1 then totally restored and updated to 1.0.2 and it works fine.
