Course Highlights
In order to understand the transport mechanisms for heat transfer, the effects are characterized and their corresponding equations are refreshed without going too deep into mathematics like differential equations. By applying the equations to practical examples, the student will learn how to approach his own cooling tasks, perform rough calculations and to understand the limiting steps in the heat transfer path. A variety of cooling aspects are discussed, including the thermal contact resistance, cooling with fans, heat sinks and special cooling techniques, as well as fluid dynamic basics of the moving medium.

From Green Right Now Reports
President Obama has announced a conditional $1.45 billion loan guarantee to Abengoa Solar Inc. to finance the construction and start-up of a one of the world's largest solar power facilities. The Solana, Ariz., plant will add 250 megawatts of capacity to the electrical grid. In addition, the Department of Energy said it will offer a loan guarantee of $400 million to Abound Solar Manufacturing, LLC to manufacture state-of-the-art thin-film solar panels.
Once operational, the Solana project is expected to supply clean electric power to approximately 70,000 homes, reducing overall CO2 emissions by 475,000 tons. Electricity from the project will be sold through a long-term power purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service Company. Abengoa Solar, a Spanish company with U.S. headquarters in Denver, estimates that the Solana project will employ 1,600 workers during the construction phase of the project and create over 80 skilled permanent jobs for the plant's operation.
"After years of watching companies build things and create jobs overseas, it's good news that we've attracted a company to our shores to build a plant and create jobs right here in America," President Obama said during his weekly radio address.
Over 70 percent of the components and products used for Solana will be made in the United States. Two assembly factories will be constructed on the Solana site, and as a result of the project's large need for mirrors — more than 900,000 — a new mirror manufacturing facility will be sited just outside of the Phoenix area, contributing additional direct investment and adding more jobs to Arizona's economy.
Solana will employ solar trough technology using parabolic shaped glass mirrors that direct sunlight onto receiver tubes that heat the fluid inside to over 700 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat is then used to turn steam turbines. The project also includes a thermal energy storage system that will allow Solana to produce electricity after the sun has set.
When fully operational, officials said Abound Solar Manufacturing will produce millions of solar panels annually. The panels can be produced at a lower cost than crystalline silicon modules. Upon completion, the project will be able to manufacture enough panels each year to support up to 840 megawatts of new solar power annually. The project is expected to reach full capacity by 2013.
Government officials said this will be the first time this new manufacturing technology for Cadmium-Telluride panels is deployed commercially anywhere in the world. The project includes two facilities, one in Longmont, Colo., and the other in Tipton, Ind. The Indiana facility will occupy a new factory originally constructed for a Chrysler auto parts supplier that was never able to move in due to the economic downturn. The company anticipates that the project will create approximately 2,000 jobs during construction and 1,500 permanent jobs.
"This project is yet another example what the Recovery Act has done in communities across the country in creating the new, clean energy jobs of the future," Energy Secretary Steven Chu said in a statement. "By supporting new cutting-edge solar manufacturing technologies, we are advancing a diverse renewable energy portfolio while helping to position the U.S. at the forefront of the global green economy."
The company will use proprietary manufacturing technology developed jointly by Colorado State University, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the National Science Foundation. It will produce photovoltaic panels using an innovative process in which thin films of Cadmium-Telluride are deposited onto the glass panels. The technology offers numerous improvements over existing manufacturing methods and reduces overall product costs, officials said. The processes also are expected to create significant enhancements in film quality, device efficiency and stability, and product yield.
Including the latest announcements, the Department of Energy has issued conditional commitments for loan guarantees to support 13 clean energy projects. The Solana project will bring the total amount of concentrating solar power supported by the Department to nearly 650 megawatts.

We have all heard about the 2012 End of the World.
We have all heard about the conspiracies as well ... yeah
Well here is a little pearler I was told about they other day re the 2012 End of the World conspiracy.
Ok here goes; The end of the world is supposed to happen on Dec 21, 2012 according to all sources ... yeah
There are some out there that are saying that the governments are all in cohoots and are going to do a false flag op on that day on a global scale...most likely involving UFO's
They face a small problem of course, according to the person I was speaking to who has knowledge way beyond my own. Not withstanding that he is a man of religion and has knowledge in areas I do not, particular in history and biblical history.
He is saying that when we switched from the biblical calendar to the Gregorian calendar we lost 9 whole days. He went into great detail on citing historical reference and indeed biblical reference to put his case forward.
In short he claims; "That if anything in so far as the end of the world is concerned as predicted it will be more than likely to occur on the 12/12/2012 not on 21/12/2012 (12/21/2012 for our American friends). He does not believe the world will actually end. He believes certain an event of global proportion will occur that will awaken mankind and it will be the beginning of change in the perceptions of mankind.
He believes that the government are planning a false flag but have not taken into account the 9 day loss from the change over of the Biblical Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar on which we currently determine the date ...
Interesting if true ... I just thought I would put it "out there" for comment and feedback.
Please discuss ........

The Water Sentinels are the first line of defense of America's waters. We live on the water planet. All living things, our weather, the seasons, and our climate depend on water.

Yes I'm sure you'd like to think that, wouldn't you? No chance of being denied, eh? Have you ever applied? Do you even know what that entails? I'm betting on no.

Have you ever noticed how many travel sites there are on the internet. And yet, the primary sites that get the traffic are the ones that have been there for years … Travelocity, Expedia and of course, the major airlines. The major reason is the money that is being made by the search engines for travel related searches. Such tactics blur the lines between Internet Marketing via Search Engine Optimization .vs Marketing a site with Pay-Per-Click ads.
"Google has gone a long way toward helping to create a monopoly for the big travel sites", says Gary Wolfer, Principal at Empeerean SEO, an Internet Marketing Firm. "By the time that all of the paid sites and "local places" sites are displayed, there is little room for organic rankings. That means there are even fewer first page slots in a internet marketing niche which is already unbelievably competitive."
The situation is compounded by the fact that it appears that in some niches, and travel is one of those niches, that the companies that spend big money on Google Ads may also receive some priority placement in the organic search results. Since most people ignore the ads, this still gives those who are paying big money for ads some kind of value for their advertising dollar.
"As time goes on, I expect the situation will perpetuate into other, less crowded search niches, not just the travel industry" says Wolfer.
Will letting Google pre-screen the information they show you based upon who pays them be in your best interest? Will that give you a better "Searching Experience" as Google describes it?
"Doubtful", says Wolfer, "but time will tell."

The biopsy may be done through the abdominal wall:
The procedure can also be done by inserting a needle into the jugular vein.
If you receive sedation for this test, you will need someone to drive you home.
Tell your health care provider about:

Left heart catheterization is the passage of a thin flexible tube (catheter) into the left side of the heart to diagnose or treat certain heart problems.
Catheterization - left heart
You may be given a mild sedative before the procedure starts to help you relax. The health care provider will place an IV into your arm so that you can receive medication during the procedure.
You will lie on a padded table. Your doctor will make a small surgical cut on your body, usually near the groin. Then your doctor will insert a flexible tube (catheter) through the cut into an artery. Sometimes the catheter will be placed in your arm or wrist. You will be awake during the procedure.
The doctor will use live x-ray pictures to carefully guide the catheters up into your heart and arteries. Dye will be injected into your body to highlight blood flow through the arteries. This helps the doctors see any blockages in the blood vessels that lead to your heart.
The catheter is the moved through the aortic valve into the left side of your heart. When in place, a special dye (contrast) flows through the tube. This helps the doctor better see your heart.
The procedure may last from less than 1 hour to several hours.
You should not eat or drink for 8 hours before the test. (Your doctor or nurse may give you different directions.)
The procedure will take place in the hospital. You may be admitted the night before the test, but it is common to come to the hospital the morning of the procedure.
Your health care provider will explain the procedure and its risks. You must sign a consent form.
You will be given sedation to help you relax before the procedure, but you will be awake and able to follow instructions during the test.
You will be given local numbing medicine (anesthesia) before the catheter is inserted. You will feel some pressure as the catheter is inserted, but you should not feel any pain. You may have some discomfort from lying still for a long period of time.
The procedure is done to evaluate:
The procedure may also be done to repair certain types of heart defects, or to open a narrowed heart valve.

Reviews for County Fair Funnel Cakes
Sort By :
"One year we went to our local town festival with family from out of town. After we returned home from the festival I made the County Fair Funnel Cakes. Everyone thought they tasted just like funnel cakes from a fair."
"We Loved it!!! Just like the State Fair!"
"Tasted great but couldn't get the batter to make a funnel, was like crumbs. Poured into grease from funnel, don't know what happened but will try again."
"This recipe was so easy to make! I used soy milk and added vanilla to the recipe. I have a daughter that is allergic to Dairy. Her allergy makes it hard to find things for her to eat at our county fair. She has two older sisters so she always wants to eat the same as them. This recipe made it possible for me to give her the same as her sisters."

Mentor Graphics Inflexion UI Wins embedded world 2010 Award for Software Innovation
MUNICH, Germany, March 9, 2010 – Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that its Mentor® Embedded™ Inflexion™ UI (user interface) received the embedded world 2010 Award for best innovative software product at the embedded world conference 2010 held in Nuremburg, Germany last week. The Inflexion UI product was chosen based on new technology innovation, competing against QNX and Texas Instruments, during a ceremony held on Tuesday, March 2, 2010.
Richard Krowoza, Nuremberg Messe GmbH management board member, and Dr. Matthias Sturm, chairman of the embedded world 2010 exhibits committee, presented the award to Ville-Veikko Helppi, Mentor Embedded Inflexion UI product marketing manager. Dr. Sturm recognized the Inflexion UI product for providing the rapid creation and radical customization of a graphical UI in any handheld device as an important and timely innovative solution.
Handheld device manufacturers are striving to find new and compelling ways to differentiate their products. While basic factors can influence the success of a device—such as functionality, price, ease-of-use, network carrier, and brand name recognition—the device's UI has a direct impact on the product's success or failure based on customer "user-experience." The Inflexion UI provides a fast and reliable solution without changes to the underlying application code, enabling the developer to create dynamic 2D and 3D graphics, animation, and special effects.

Tighten any bolt with a new socket wrench
If your daughter's bike needs a tune up or the car needs some maintenance, a socket wrench will be your best friend. Having a socket set on hand will make any kind of installation or furniture assembly a snap. Bolts are a standard fastener for a wide variety of projects and items around the home. A comprehensive set of sockets can handle any bolt.
Not every fastener is going to be a perfect hex bolt. They can be stripped and damaged from previous uses, abnormal shapes or other factors. These cases call for a universal socket set. A universal socket wrench is built to grip nearly any shape and turn it successfully. A standard socket will have difficulty with pieces that have seen better days, but universal sockets will have them turning like new. Sears carries universal sets from Craftsman that can handle the toughest tasks.
Whether you're an amateur mechanic or building a new swing set for the little ones, a quality socket wrench will help finish a variety of different tasks. A comprehensive standard or universal socket set will ensure that no job goes unfinished. Get these and all the wrenches you need at Sears.

Not any technical difficulty. That naturally happens with real bowling. You have to spin it pretty hard to get it to go right. Moving your character would probably work better than trying to get it to spin a direction your not familiar with. I can't throw a straight ball. I turn my character to the right a little and bam!

MBT Sport 3 White Leather/Mesh Men's Shoe
Features include:
This MBT style features removable insoles so that you can add your own orthotic insoles. Although to fully benefit from the MBT technology the MBT shoes should be worn without orthotics.
If you have any questions you can find the answers in our MBT Shoes Frequently Asked Questions section.
Wearing MBT Shoes for the first time? Watch the MBT Shoes Instructional Video
MBT is the only shoe I can wear due to Plantar Fasciitis of both feet. They don't cure it but make it bearable when on my feet for long periods of time. I've been wearing MBT shoes for 5 years now and love them
The Sport 3 is lighter weight than my Sport 1 shoe, but equally comfortable. My only complaint is that the tongue slips out of place as I wear the shoe - a problem that did not exist with my two pairs of Sport 1 shoes. MBT's are the only shoe I can wear comfortably as I have some foot issues. However, they are not good for uneven surfaces such as hiking trails. Overall, I am pleased with my newest MBT's.
The MBT Sport is the best shoe I ever wore. My first was the Sport 2. It cured my forty year whiplash! The Sport 3 I must buy now has a smaller toe box. I still get the walking-in-sand action but god! I miss the 2. "Arch support" is irrelevant in the MBT.
Certilogo and true to MBT comfort and support.

(CNN) — What would Stephen Colbert want in a Charleston, South Carolina, bowling alley?
Votes for his sister, who is running for Congress.
The Comedy Central comedian stumped on Saturday for Elizabeth Colbert Busch, one of two Democratic candidates running for the U.S. House seat vacated by now-Sen. Tim Scott, a Republican appointed to fill the Senate spot that Jim DeMint left last month.
Also seeking the seat in the GOP-leaning district are 16 Republicans, the most recognizable among them being former Gov. Mark Sanford. A primary will be held in March ahead of the May special election.
Colbert -- the comedian -- signed books and mingled at the campaign event in his hometown, held at bowling spot The Alley Charleston.
"We're going to raise money in a bowling alley because we're of the people," he told fellow television host Jimmy Fallon on Thursday. "You know, you've got to go to a bowling alley because that's where the people are."
Another benefit?
Bowling is "one of the few sports that comes with a bar."
Colbert has previously teased his own bids for public office, but said in the interview he hoped his career didn't hurt his sister's chances.
"I don't actually have anything to offer people in a public office," he said. "It's natural for her to run because she has skills and something to offer society. I am professionally ridiculous. So I just hope that what I do for a living doesn't sully her good character."

It's actually a play on words, and an homage to the band Wilco, whose "best album ever" (IMO) is Yankee Hotel Foxtrot...John K
It just comes across as kind of amateur - we've all heard people try to spell something with the phonetic alphabet and look silly stumbling along the way.
Then I think they should have jus called that beer....Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.Who would have known the difference, right?
They should have just used the album name! John K
most people aren't going to notice (or appreciate)
Nice bike and cool guy I bet you have a nice slice on golf course...
That is quite a toned down label compared to your usual Don...but it's cool never the less...

Are you good at seeing the big picture?
Advisory helps businesses improve their business performance in a dynamic, uncertain world.

Imagine the experience and contacts you will gain.

Do you work well in demanding situations?
Transaction Advisory Services helps businesses and government bodies make big decisions around their capital agenda by advising on how to raise, preserve, optimize and invest their capital in the best way possible.
