FLUSH TANK SILENCER Filed OG. 21, 1952 ff 3.5 J'oH/v A. VVA/PCH.
MJ Mw.
United States Patent O FLUSH TANK SILENCER John A. Warch, Woodlawn, Md. Application October 21, 1952, Serial No. 315,875 3 Claims. (Cl. 181-49) This invention relates to filler tubes and more particularly to those used to fill the water tanks used with flush toilets.
In the conventional water tanks used with hush toilets the operation on the filler valve in supplying water to the tank is controlled by a float operated valve which turns on or oif the water supply, when the water` in the tank reaches a predetermined level. The water passes from the supply valve through an open ended pipe into the water tank and is quite noisy.
lt is therefore an object of this invention to provide a device to be attached to the float operated supply valve that will allow the water from the supply valve to enter the Water tank without the objectionable noises produced during the filling cycle.
It is an additional object of this invention to provide a new and improved means for filling a reserve water tank for use in flushing toilets, that will be quieter than the present liller pipes.
It is a further object of this invention to eliminate the noise of the rushing water when filling a water tank used for flushing ush toilets.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a new and improved silencer for use on tloat operated valves used to control the water supply to and from the tank, that will be readily attachable 4to present float operated valves to convert them from the present noisy type.
Other objects of the invention will become apparent as the invention is more fully set forth.
For a better understanding of the invention and the objects thereof, reference is made to the accompanying drawings wherein a particular form of the invention is disclosed by way of example. The drawings when used in conjunction with the following description explain the structure and operation that embodies the principles of the invention and is emphasized in the appended claims.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure l is a side elevation of a oat operated filler valve with a silencer embodying this invention attached thereto;
Figure 2 is a plan view of the ure 1;
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the silencer shown in Figure l;
Figure 4 is a plan view of a disc used in this invention as seen along line 4-4 of Figure 3; and
Figure 5 is a plan View of another disc as seen along line 5 5 of Figure 3.
Similar reference characters refer to simila-ntparts throughout the drawings.
In the construction shown in the drawings the water tank is provided with a cover 11 and encases a conventional lloat operated valve 12 and float 13 operated through conventional linkage to control the passage of water through the pipe 14 to the tgpk in the usual manner. A silencer 15 is attached to thsgpipe 14 at the op.
silencer shown in Fig posite end from the valve 12, and preferably comprises a casing 16 having its upper end restricted and threaded at 17 to receive the pipe 14. The lower end of the casing 16 is ythreaded at 18 to receive a screw cap 19. The screw cap 19 is provided with a hole 20 to allow the water to discharge therethrough and the c ap is used to fasten the silencing element 21 in the casing. The silencing element preferably comprises a stud 22 with threads 23 on its surface to receive threaded separator collars 24 used to attach and hold the discs 25, 26, 27 and 28 in spaced relationship with each other and to tighten them against the head 29 forming a part of the stud 22. The discs 25, 26, and 27, iit inside the casing 16 and the disc 28 is larger in diameter and is clamped against the end of the casing 16 by the screw cap 19. The holes 30 in the disc 25 are positioned in a single row and are preferably about one-eighth of an inch in diameter. The holes 31 in the disc 26 are about three thirty seconds of an inch in diameter, and the holes 32 in the disc 27 are preferably three sixty-fourths of an inch in diameter. The holes 31 and 32 in discs 26 and 27 are also preferably arranged in a single row. The holes 33 in the disc 28 are smaller and preferably arranged in two rows and are in this illustration about one-thirty-second of an inch in diameter. Although the diameters of the holes and the number of rows of holes used are given in this example it is not desired to limit this invention to the diameters and number of holes mentioned because it has been found during the experiments conducted, that the diameter and number of the holes used in the discs will vary to suit the different water pressures encountered during its use. The collars 24 may be spacer collars without threads, with the last one threaded to clamp them together.
In the assembly of the unit shown, the disc 28 is positioned on the stud 22 against its head 29 and a collar 24 is screwed on the stud to tighten the disc 28, the disc 27 is slid over the stud 22 and another collar 24 tightened against it, the disc 26 is then slid over the stud and a third collar 24 screwed thereon the disc 25 is then positioned on the stud and the fourth collar 24 screwed on the stud 22 to tighten the disc 25 in place. The element 21 is then inserted in the casing 16 and the cap 19 screwed into place to hold the element 21 about central in the casing. The unit is then screwed on the pipe 14 and is ready for operation.
While but one general form of the invention is shown in the drawings and described in the specification, it is not desired to limit this application for patent to this particular form as it is appreciated that other forms could be made that would use the same principles and come within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
l. A silencer comprising a hollow cylindrical casing open at both ends, a disc closing one of said ends, said disc having a central opening therethrough, an open ended screw cap threaded on the closed end of the casing and retaining the aforesaid disc in place at the end of the casing, a threaded stud extending through the casing to a point short of the open end of the casing and passing through the central opening in the disc, said stud having a head resting against the underside of the disc, a plurality of centrally apertured circular discs spaced along the length of the stud and extending peripherally to the inner wall of the hollow casing and of smaller diameter than the first mentioned disc, and a plurality of collars between the discs threadedly engaging the stud, all of the aforementioned discs having openings therethrough varying in diameters from the lowermost to the uppermost of said discs, all of said collars when serially threaded on the stud from the lowermost to the uppermost interacting as lock nuts and maintaining the ciosing disc in tight engagement with the head of the stud.
2. A silencer as set forth in claim 1 including threaded meansv at the open end of the casing for attachment to l a pipe.

Use TOTAL AdBlue® to meet European Emission regulations and improve fuel economy
European regulations for exhaust emissions (NOx) have become increasingly stringent therefore dramatically increasing the urgency for engine optimisation. There is a limit to how this can be achieved, and from Euro IV onwards, other technologies have had to step in to keep the reductions possible.
All new trucks built from October 2006 are equipped with a catalytic reduction system that uses AdBlue®. Euro IV, Euro V and now Euro VI require taxes on the exhaust emissions of heavy goods vehicles.
AdBlue® is a water solution of synthetic urea, associated with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust emission technology. It allows vehicle operators to meet the latest European emission standards by converting pollutants to water vapour and non-harmful nitrogen, therefore reducing exhaust emissions.
Nic Hammond AdBlue Area Business Manager at TOTAL UK Lubricants comments:
"The technology is an important development in the management of transport. If your vehicle is equipped with SCR technology, you will need to fill up with fuel and AdBlue® (in separate tanks). The consumption of AdBlue® helps reduce fuel consumption providing an average of 4 to 6% less of diesel consumption therefore resulting in increased fuel economy."
To meet the needs of our customers TOTAL AdBlue® is available now from TOTAL UK in the following delivery options; Bulk, IBC, barrel and small pack. In addition, TOTAL can provide customers with a variety of dispensing options including bulk tanks, IBC pumps, lever & rotary hand pumps, etc.
TOTAL is also developing Diaxol - an additive dissolved in AdBlue® for cleaning SCR denox systems which is added to AdBlue® to improve its properties in frequent stopping and cold climate situations.
Diaxol will prolong the life of diesel fleets and dramatically reduce exhaust clogging due to crystallisation deposits. Tests have shown that vehicles using Diaxol can drive for 50,000 kilometres without any clogging issues.
Due to Diaxol's preventative effect, there is a reduced requirement for maintenance of the SCR system.
Diaxol is a revolutionary technology for fleets such as city buses and urban trucks. Our estimations show that these sorts of vehicles experience exhaust clogging issues up to 40% of the time. When using Diaxol, these vehicles can literally go for tens of thousands of kilometres without such issues.
Diaxol will soon be available by TOTAL UK in the UK.

The National Energy Board Environmental Assessment of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion will no longer be enough in B.C.
The Provincial Environmental Assessment Office has informed Kinder Morgan it is now launching its own assessment of the pipeline.
In a letter written by Executive Project Director Nathan Braun, he notes a recent court decision ruling for B.C. First Nations who argued the province couldn't surrender its authority to review pipeline projects.
He then notes the pipeline expansion meets the criteria for review with potential health, safety, and environmental impacts.
Pending the provincial review, the letter informs Trans Mountain it cannot proceed until the review is complete.

Dedication: To the great ship Titanic, which lives on in our minds, and to the fifteen hundred who were lost on the night of April 15, 1912, who live on in our hearts.
Author's Note: I want to say straight off that this is not a retelling of the movie Titanic. Having said that, it was - at least in part - inspired by that wonderful movie, and also by the novel By the Light of the Silver Moon by Tricia Goyer. I knew from the moment I became interested in the Titanic and her history that I had to do a tribute fic on the hundredth anniversary of its sinking. I cannot picture this story told by any other than Temari and Itachi (and, in part, by Neji and Tenten - they are my favorite couple in Naruto, so I had to give them at least a little part in the story), and I hope you enjoy reading their story as much as I'm enjoying writing it. I cannot promise a steady update schedule - bad things happen when I do! - but I can promise that I will get updates out to you as soon as I can. Thank you all so much for joining me on this journey, and I hope you enjoy it!
*~Chapter I~*
Wednesday, April 10, 1912 - 11:24 A.M
"Are all these people getting on board?"
At her brother's question, Temari Sabaku blinked out of her private ruminations and looked around, just then comprehending the sheer number of people crowding the dock in Southampton, England. "I doubt it," she replied. "Most of them are probably here to see those on the ship off. It is a historical moment, you know." Standing on tiptoe, she peered over the head of the woman in front of her, trying to see all the way to the second class boarding ramp. Already she'd been in line for almost two hours, and it felt like the line had barely moved.
Kankuro Sabaku shifted nervously on his feet, gazing around with uneasy dark eyes. "I wish I could go with you," he said. "But I could never forgive myself if-"
Reaching out, Temari laid a reassuring hand on her brother's shoulder. "I'll be fine, Kankuro. I promise. You're seeing me off here, and Gaara is already on the other side of the Atlantic waiting for me. And you've heard the same reports as me! It will only take me a week to get from here to there. And I'm sure there's very little on the Titanic that could go wrong. Troublemakers will be at the bare minimum, if there are any at all."
"I just hate the thought of your traveling by yourself at all. If only I'd gotten you a ticket for first class..." Kankuro shook his head.
Sighing, Temari rolled her eyes. "You weren't even supposed to get me a ticket for second class. Now it's going to be even longer before you can come to America."
"As long as I'm sure you're safe, Temari, I'm willing to wait." Kankuro's expression was as decidedly stubborn as it had been the last time they'd had this conversation. And the time before that. And the time before that. And the time he brought her the second class ticket, insisting he would feel better if she were there instead of third class - the place in which she'd originally intended to travel.
Reminded of the reason why she was leaving England in the first place, Temari turned as best she could in the crush of people and gazed back toward the Southampton skyline. She'd lived there her entire life, and leaving it was one of the hardest things she'd ever done. Not even knowing her youngest brother was waiting for her in America was helping her feel more at ease about the situation. "Do you think it doesn't bother me, knowing that even though I'm going to be safe, you might not be? I don't want to go, Kankuro."
Giving her a little push, Kankuro nodded with a reassuring grin. "I'll be fine," he stressed. "And you're going to be on the maiden voyage of the biggest, safest ship in the world. Come on, Temari. You should be enjoying yourself. Think of this as a vacation! You need one. You've been saying so for the past ten years."
True. But still... "I wish you could come with me. Maybe I should wait until-"
But Kankuro was still shaking his head. "No. You're getting on the Titanic, and you're going to America, where I can be sure you're safe."
Despite the fact that Temari was the oldest Sabaku sibling, Kankuro had always treated her like a younger sister who needed protecting. The youngest, Gaara, had followed suit, at least as long as he lived in England with them. At least after the two of them had safely stowed him aboard a ship three years past that had calmed down, even if he still managed to continue the feeling through his letters.
"Now, don't forget to write me," Kankuro said as their line shuffled its way along a little closer to the massive ship. "I'm sure you'll have nothing else to do on board." He laughed when Temari gave him a slight shove with her shoulder.
"I'll be sure to send you a telegram when I reach America, too," Temari said. "That way news will reach you sooner when I get there than it would if I sent you a letter." She clutched her hat as a sudden vicious burst of wind swept across the crowd, tangling its cold fingers in the curls of her blonde hair not secured by her hat.
"Good." Kankuro caught her by the shoulder and pulled her in for a quick kiss on her cheek. "And now, sister dearest, it is time for you to board. Have a safe journey."
The first true effects of nervousness, which she had managed to stave off until now, bloomed in Temari's stomach. She swallowed hard, surprised by the nausea that was suddenly welling into her throat. A first sign of seasickness, perhaps, even though she was not even on board the ship yet? "Kankuro, don't make me go," she begged. "I can-"
"No. Please, Temari. I'll sleep so much better at night knowing you're safe. Nothing can touch you on the Titanic, and when you reach America, you'll have Gaara to protect you."
She savagely bit her lip to keep from snapping that she was perfectly capable of taking care of herself. The last words Kankuro would hear from her in person, at least until he reached America, too, did not need to be caustic ones. "All right. I'll go." Temari returned his kiss, then drew in a deep breath, clutched her carpet bag a little tighter in her gloved hand, and mounted the ramp that would lead her onto the second-class deck.
Temari peeked up at the clock hanging on the wall just inside the door, halfway surprised to see it there, as she stepped foot on the Titanic for the first time. She still had twenty five minutes until the ship was set to sail, so she had time to drop her carpet bag off at her room and come back to the rail to wave goodbye to Kankuro and the general multitude waiting on the docks to wave off the grand ship.
As soon as she stepped into the indoor area of the ship, Temari noted the temperature difference between the outside of the ship and the inside. It was nice and warm inside, and as she briskly made her way through the labyrinth of halls, looking for the room number that lined up with that on her ticket, she started to get a little too warm in her heavy winter coat, one of the nicest pieces of clothing she owned. As she walked, she inhaled the myriad scents that indicated the sheer newness of the Titanic: fresh paint that still looked slick and wet, newly cut and polished wood from the floor beneath her feet, and the crispness of freshly laundered sheets on the beds in each room. The second class part of the ship was like nothing she'd ever seen before - she could only imagine what first class looked like!
Ah, here we are. Temari tucked her ticket back into the pocket of her coat and opened the door to room 217, wondering what splendors would meet her eyes beyond.
The first thing Temari saw was the sink - she would have running water! The second was the bunk bed sitting against the wall. The third and final was the dark haired woman bumping a large trunk into the narrow space between the head of the bottom bunk and the wall - and she was doing it with her hip!
"Oh!" Having noticed Temari standing in the doorway (undoubtedly with her mouth slightly agape), the brunette snapped upwards, belatedly shoving loose strands of chocolate hair into the messy bun at the back of her neck. "I'm so sorry! I didn't want to bother one of the stewards to help me, they're all so busy, and - and you must be my roommate?"
Granted, Temari had known from the start that she would have a roommate. But she had been expecting an older woman, not someone who looked to be around her age, brimming with energy and happiness. "I'm Temari Sabaku?" Her confusion caused her to lose her usual confidence in her speech, and she cursed that sudden weakness.
"I'm Tenten Hyuuga!" Tenten paused, her eyes narrowing a little as her cheeks blushed. "Well, I'm not a Hyuuga yet," she said, suddenly looking down at the floor instead of up at Temari. "But as soon as I make it to America, I will be. Neji went ahead first to get settled, and now that he's sent for me, he's got everything ready so I can come and we can finally get married." She grinned, showing a row of perfectly straight, perfectly white teeth.
Already Temari could tell that, at least as long as she was in her room, there would never be a lack of conversation during her time on the Titanic. Surprisingly grateful for the friendly demeanor of her roommate, Temari fully entered the room and set her carpet bag on her own trunk, which sat by the door in all its sad-looking unglory. "I'm going to visit my younger brother," she said, not willing to go into the specifics of the situation with a virtual stranger.
"Wonderful!" Tenten sidled a step closer and lowered her voice when she spoke next. "I'm so glad you're my bunkmate," she said. "I was so afraid that I would have someone who was completely unfriendly, who wouldn't want to give me the time of day."
Since Temari's fears had run something along the same lines, she couldn't help smiling in return. "I had thought the same," she said. "I must admit that it was a great relief to know it is someone quite the opposite I'll be rooming with for this voyage."
Somewhere far above their heads, the sound of the ship's horn bellowed over that of the crowds moving through the ship, and Tenten gave a gasp. "We'd best get to the rail!" she cried. "We'll miss the launch!" Without waiting for a response from Temari, Tenten grabbed her arm and dragged her along, barely giving the blonde a chance to close the door to their room behind her.
Yes, this is definitely going to be an interesting journey.
*~Wednesday, April 10, 1912 - 12:01 P.M.~*
Clinging to the rail with one hand, Temari leaned against it and waved her other arm in a wide arc, hoping Kankuro could see her. Everyone on the dock looked so tiny from her viewpoint far above. She couldn't pick her brother out of the crush, but she was fairly certain he couldn't pick her out, either. But he was down there somewhere, waving, and that's what mattered most.
Next to her, Tenten waved just as enthusiastically, and Temari decided to make conversation. "Are you waving goodbye to someone in particular?"
"No. I've been working here in Southampton as a seamstress until Neji sent for me, and all my coworkers couldn't get off work to come. I'm waving goodbye to England and my past as much as anything." One wide brown eye turned in Temari's direction. "And you? Saying goodbye to anyone in particular?" Tenten flashed another wide smile.
"My brother, Kankuro. I would point him out, but it's impossible to tell one person apart from another down there." Temari was glad she'd taken off her hat and left it in her room since the movement of the Titanic was adding to the wind already coming in off the water. The pins holding her blonde curls up were straining to maintain their grip, and she knew a hat would have already gone sailing away, haptin or no, had she still been wearing it.
"I thought you were going to America to see your brother?" Tenten asked, obviously confused.
"My youngest brother, Gaara," Temari said. "Kankuro is the middle child. I am eldest."
Since they were drawing further away from the dock, Tenten stopped waving. Already people were wandering off around them, the excited buzz of their myriad conversations forming a backdrop to the crash of the water washing against the side of the ship. "I wish I had siblings." Tenten sighed wistfully.
Temari laughed, dropping her arm to drape along the railing as she leaned out a little, marveling at the way the water was churning into white waves behind the ship. Were she not looking at it, she wouldn't even realize she was on a ship, as smooth as the ride was so far. The advertisements in the newspaper had not been exaggerating in the least when they said that the Titanic was the best ship in the world. "If you actually had some, you probably wouldn't be saying that," she replied. "I love my brothers, I really do. But sometimes I really wish I was an only child." Her smile melted away, and she sighed softly. "But in the end, when it truly comes down to it, I wouldn't give them up for anything. They take such good care of me." And I really don't deserve it. It should be Kankuro here, on board the Titanic, instead of me. That's how I had always intended it to be. Gaara would go to America first, then Kankuro, and finally, if there was enough left over, me. This is all wrong. What was I thinking?
"Over there!"
The sudden shout from above made Temari turn her attention back to the water. She squinted one way and then the other, wondering what had caught the attention of the passenger who had shouted. Only a few seconds later, she saw it: one of the other ships that had been moored at the dock had broken free of its tethers and was headed right for the side of the Titanic.
"It's going to hit!" Tenten cried. Her hands were so tight around the rail her knuckles were white.
Temari felt her own hands tighten their grip, her muscles tensing as she braced for the impact that was sure to come. Was this it, then? Was the Titanic, which she had been heard called unsinkable, about to be struck by another ship? Despite how steady the ship beneath her feet felt, surely an impact with another ship would cause damage - serious damage.
"It's the New York," Temari heard another passenger say. "But even if it hits, that ship's going to be the one to get the damage. Nothing can hurt the Titanic."
By Temari's side, Tenten relaxed slightly. "That's true," she said. "Granted, I'd rather the New York not hit us, but we'll come out with the better end, for sure, even if it does."
Despite all the reassurances, Temari found she could not breathe easily until several tugboats had come out, captured the New York, and guided it away from the side of the Titanic. The whole incident had taken no more than half an hour, but Temari felt almost as if the affair had lasted days. She was shaken by what had just happened, and despite herself she couldn't help but feel like it was an omen. A very bad omen.
The view suddenly held little interest for Temari. Turning away, she placed a steadying hand on her suddenly churning stomach and glanced at Tenten. "I think I'm going to return to my room and rest. Things have been so busy for me, preparing for this trip, I'd just like to sit and do nothing for a while."
Tenten laughed. "All right. But I'm going to go explore!" The two women agreed to meet later for the evening meal, and Temari headed back to her room. She would start her first letter to Kankuro, telling him all about what had just happened with the New York. He had probably seen it, or at least heard about it, but he liked stories. He'd enjoy reading her take on the incident.
As she settled at the beautiful wooden desk in her and Tenten's room, Temari knew that once she was in America, she would be able to laugh off all her bad feelings. She was just anxious to be away from England and the ghosts chasing her, that was all.
The ship had two more stops to make: Cherbourg, France, later that evening, and then Queenstown, Ireland, the next morning. Temari was sure that once those stops were out of the way and the Titanic made its way out to open ocean that she would feel better.
But for now, she would stay in her room, distract herself, and look forward to the journey ahead. Temari knew it would be one to remember.
*~To Be Continued~*
Author's Ending Notes: Again, this is not intended to be a retelling of the movie Titanic, though it was in part inspired by it. I can promise that Itachi will make his first appearance in the next chapter - this and the next are basically just setting the story up, and then the real action will start by chapter three. I am going to try to stay as historically accurate as possible while writing this story, but I will take a few artistic liberties. I will, however, try to keep them at a minimum. Until next time, thank you so much for checking out my story, and I hope you enjoyed chapter one!

There is an intense purity to this wine. Aromas of dark cherry, black peppercorn, dusty minerals and lively fresh herbs that are reminiscent of a forest floor. The color is deep, flavors complex and the experience is unforgettable. The Givry village is located further south in the region of Burgundy in the sub-region of the Côte Chalonnaise.
Clos denotes a vineyard surrounded by a wall and this Clos Salomon has been a monopole for over 700 years and in the same family for 300 years. If this was in the Côte de Nuits this would be $100+ bottle of wine. Since this is from Côte Chalonnaise it's much more affordable and therefore a great value. Côte Chalonnaise is further south and shares some of that region's terroir. Fifty-year-old vines from the seven-hectare vineyard, organic practices in the field and traditional winemaking in the cellar. Dark red in the glass, this young wine is ready to drink now and is delicious. What struck me so strongly about this wine was a remarkable purity, freshness, and brightness of fruit. That fruit is married beautifully to earthy mineral firm palate. All the flavors are balanced and well integrated to make an outstanding bottle of Pinot Noir.
The Burgundy region of northeastern France is the historic home of the Pinot Noir grape, and is the source of the world's greatest examples. Here one finds renditions of Pinot Noir that deliver power with finesse and grace, wines that have unimaginable depth of flavor, yet are perfectly balanced and ephemeral in the mouth - in short, wines that deliver all that Pinot Noir has to offer. Terroir,...
The range of wine styles offered in Burgundy rivals that of any other region. In Chablis, Chardonnay is left unoaked to produce lean, crisp, steely wines with incredible acidity - a far cry from the vanilla-oak bombs that so many consumers associate with this grape. Fans of rich, unctuous, and well-oaked Chardonnay will enjoy Chassagne-Montrachet, whose age-worthy offerings offer all the fatness...

So to get started I must confess that I have a huge tote bag obsession. Instead of buying diaper bags with a million compartments I tend to buy cheap tote bags at Target and throw everything inside. Disorganized yes, but I cannot resist them. So when I saw this shop I naturally drooled at everything in the store. Not to mention I love these dorky yet fun catch phrases. I fell even deeper when I saw they do baby onsies and tee shirts. Not sure what I will purchase first.
|I mean this is just a natural fit
|Clever one
|Maybe I will get this one for Thomas
|For the natural Party Animal baby
Another new find I discovered was due to my annoyance of frantically looking for paper and writing notes on old bills or envelopes. This store is called Happy Hound.

How People Analyze The Music Cultural Studies Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Everyone has their own analysis on music; however, it begins within the laws of acoustics. The frequency, amplitude, duration and timbre of the sound waves all stimulate our eardrums and this is what gives us what we call "music".
The first parameter is the frequency or rate of vibration in synch with the sine wave. The second parameter of waveform is its height and depth, which measures the strength and vibration which indicates the amplitude. The third parameter refers to the duration of the sound, and the fourth parameter refers to the shape of the sound waves themselves, in what we call the timbre. All of these elements together produce the music that we hear every day.
There are many genres and types of music produced by many different cultural influences around the world. For instance, the Tuvians in Siberia; they link music to the natural and spiritual world and give detailed descriptions of the environment in their songs. It is believed that the Tuvians produced their "throat singing" as a result of trying to imitate the sounds of nature around them. Also, there are other genres which consist of country, rap, salsa, Ganga and classical just to name a few.
Many cultures use the art of music to relay messages and feelings towards their everyday life. Music is a form of expression that can tell a story in a way that can be remembered and passed down to generations for years to come.
Chapter 2
The power of music lies in its connections to the other aspects of culture. It is said to be a "universal language" shared between other cultural existence. Music is a very important way of expressing emotions, memories, ideas and pleasure. It is very powerful and it can move people physically and spiritually. It can stir emotions and make someone remember a loved one and cry, or to celebrate an event and have fun and laugh. The entity of music has many forms of power. For instance; a ritual, which is a functional activity that focus minds and energies are reinforces feelings and actions which are valued by the individual and the community. We all have daily rituals and many of them involve music. Like driving to work, school or even while watching a movie. We listen to music every day.
The power of music in worship is that of a powerful one. Religions give people answers to the questions they seek about the divine and their relationships with their "gods". Music is an important piece is the puzzle of a religious ritual. Examples would include weddings, graduations, a church service and even a funeral. Some view music as just a form of musical expression, and then there are some who believe music has healing powers. For instance, the Navajos believe that music and dancing restore balance and health to individuals and whole communities.
Music has also had a powerful connection to the presentations of political messages. Political songs send out a message that is easy to understand, remember and relate too than just to read words on paper. It touches the emotions of those who are listening and it builds a strong connection between the individual and society.
Chapter 3
Music and memory have always been linked together. Memories remind us of the past and present and music is one of the most powerful tools in invoking these memories from our minds. Music serves as a powerful tool in holding all memories and many cultures use music as a tool to stir up emotions and aiding in memory in rituals.
Irish music composition is said to be "traditional". Traditional music provides a nation with a sense of cultural grounding and the independence of a community. Music in Ireland has not changed much since its debut and it also provides a strong connection to the Irish culture. Irish traditional music includes many kinds of songs, including drinking songs and ballads, all sung alone or performed with a variety of instruments.
Musicians sometimes attempt to duplicate the early styles and performances in musical times in the ways that music was instructed in the past and this involved a lot of work on the musicians' part. Some compositions have to be translated to another language than the one it was written and older instruments need to be obtained. The reconstructions of broken traditions are exciting to musicians and are also challenging. A music revival can change a person's listening habits and what they are use too. For instance, listening to music that was performed back when my mother was a little girl in the 1950's changed the way that I look at music. Most of today's music is full of bass lines and electric guitar. Back in the 50's, the country music scene was full of acoustic guitars and sappy ballads. This broadened my horizons and opened my eyes to the different genres of music. Reconstructing "broken" musical traditions can be challenging, but those challenges do not outweigh the benefits of re-introducing a classical piece of music to a new generation.
Chapter 4
All of the ways that music is passed onto one person to the next is known as musical transmission. In this process, music is passed on from generation to generation or from one culture to another. Another process of learning one's own music culture, whether it be formal or informal is known as musical enculturation. This can be done informally by listening or singing with relatives and friends or formally by using the master-apprentice method through teaching.
In many different cultures, informal learning plays a different part. For instance in learning Irish Traditional Music, many musicians talk about the importance of family, friends and neighbors and use them as a primary source for their styles and techniques of music. And also in Rock and Roll; which comes from the African-American genre rhythm and blues. Over many decades, musicians have improvised and form their own forms of musical compositions of the earlier rock and roll sounds.
Another form of the learning of music is the tradition of apprenticeship. This allows professional musicians to become the student or apprentice of a master-teacher. This allows the "student" to learn the techniques, secrets and ways of the professional. Ones who become disciples of such a great master may even move into their home to take advantage of the constant immersion into the professionals' life.
Musical learning has exploded internationally by the birth of electronic media. This allows musicians to study the performances of others from every genre and from all over the globe. This phenomenon has greatly increased the speed of acculturation, which is the learning process across cultures.
Chapter 5
Rhythm involves a consistent grouping of steady beats or pulses. In other words, rhythm is simply the timing of the musical sounds and silences. While rhythm most commonly applies to sound, such as music and spoken language, it may also refer to visual presentation, as "timed movement through space". It can be free, allowing the performer to play or sing it without a fixed beat.
When thinking of metered pulse, it may result in picturing the music of a marching band. These normally consist of two pulses, on of which is stressed and the other is not. This form of pulse results in a rhythmic feel which closely resembles to that of taking steps or walking. Not all music has regular recurring patterns of strong and weak beats. It may have a non-metric beat that is unorganized into other recurring measures of pulses.
Syncopation is a general term for a disturbance or interruption of the regular flow of rhythm; a placement of rhythmic stresses or accents where they wouldn't normally occur. Syncopation has been an important element of musical composition since at least the Middle Ages. It is used in many styles of music such as jazz, break beat and rap to name a few.
The classical music which derives from Northern India is known as Hindustani. The most important rhythmic principle in Indian classical music is Tala. The classical compositions are set to repeating rhythmic cycles called talas. The opening portion of a performance such as this is known as the alap, which is done in free rhythm. It is divided into 3 parts, 1) the alap, which means graceful and slow, 2) jor, which is a medium tempo, and 3) jhala, which is much faster and upbeat.
The cultures of Africa are great areas to study the polyrhythm. For instance in Mississippi, the black fife and drum bands were in existence before the Revolutionary Way and had a part in the Civil War. Their repertory included music that appealed to the white audiences. Many of these performances were done by slaves.
Chapter 6
Melody is traditionally considered, along with rhythm and harmony, as one of the three fundamental elements in music. Melody is the linear aspect of music, in contrast to harmony, the chord aspect, which results from the simultaneous sounding of tones. Melody must be considered with rhythm; they are the two necessary elements to music.
Melody in Western Classical Music is based on the mode system, which involved scales that from the Western diatonic scale with changing pitches.
Melody in Arabic Music uses the maqam system and it is influenced by Arabic cultures reaching from Spain to Indonesia. The note of the Arabic Music has a seven note natural scale like Western musicians, but unlike the Westerners, they subdivide the octave, into twenty four "quarter tones" and not just twelve half steps.
The most important aspect of Irish music is the melody. Irish traditional music can be divided into four categories that are all based on single sung or played melodic lines: dance music, instrumental slow, songs in the English language and sean-nos singing, which songs are sung in the Irish language.
A raga is one of the melodic modes used in Indian classical music. Raga is a series of five or more musical notes upon which a melody is made, it represents a series of notes, presented in ascending and descending forms.
Chapter 7
The most important aspect of music is its timbre or "tone color". Every sound is set aside from the others because of its distinctive timbre because of a series of overtones. The pitches of these overtones can be divided into three parts: a beginning, middle and an end. Depending on the instruments used will result in a delay of each of the parts and they are controlled by the performer. Timbre is said to be the most personal element in music due to the uniqueness and individuality of its performers.
As learned before, in order to make a sound one needs three elements. First, you need a physical object which is vibrating, then a medium to transport those sound waves and last an ear to hear the sound being produced. In knowing that, a vibrating sound is what makes sound production possible. Sound production has four categories: string, wind, percussion and electronic. And centuries ago, these categories were used to classify musical instruments. The Sachs-Hornbostel system is the most widely used classification system today.
Timbre is used in many different cultures as its primary means of musical expression. In Indian classical music, they respect melodic instruments because they believe that they imitate the human voice. In Japanese traditional music, the performance is centered on a solo instrument or small ensemble. These performances call for more clarity of tonal color.
In Arabic classical music, it is also performed by a soloist or small ensemble and like the Indian classical music; the instruments imitate the human voice.
The human exploration of sound is an ever growing and changing process. In all aspects and in every culture, all music and sound has timbre.
Chapter 8
Musical texture relates to how music is organized into one of more consolidating sounding parts and the ways in which these parts relate to each other. Musical texture can be separated into two broad areas: 1) the organization of music in one or more parts playing together and 2) the ways in which these different parts relate to each other. This is also connected to timbre and the melody.
Scholars have classified musical texture by separation of the number of parts and the way these parts relate to each other. The four main categories are: monophony, heterophony, polyphony and homophony. Monophony is music with one part, a single unaccompanied line. Heterophony is when two or more musicians play or sing together the same melody in different ways. Polyphony is when two or more lines of music are played or sung at the same time. And homophony is a piece of music with multiple parts in which one voice retains the main part and the remaining voices accompany it.
Texture can be found in all types and forms of music; For instance; in Latin America's Salsa. This texture would be referred too as being homophonic, although it does involve polyrhythmic as well. Texture in the Central Javanese Gamelan can be described as polyphonic, even while there are so many other words to describe it. It is said to be many layers of all the categories and they may alter dramatically throughout a performance.
Composers use different textures as a way to add depth, tension, perception and variety to their music. Not every piece of music is the same, it is carefully crafted.
Chapter 9
In music, harmony is the use of simultaneous pitches or chords. The study of harmony involves chords and their construction and chord progressions and the principles their connections. It can refer to the combinations of tones produced by polyphony or a homophony texture.
Early Western religious music often features parallel perfect intervals. It is based on major and minor triads. Most of the world's harmonic systems are born from fundamental notes from a series of overtones. In the West, these harmonic practices were developed from medieval organum through triadic harmonies of the Renaissance to the tonal system of the Baroque Era. It remains the most commonly used harmonic system and it is being used around the globe.
Other forms of Western Harmony are used in early folk music. It demonstrates a diversion of improvised vocal sounds and the use of triads.
There are also practices that are not inspired by the Western system, including traditions from Bosnia and Zimbabwe. For instance, in Zimbabwe, the music involves repeating polyrhythmic cycles which musicians use to form their performances and some performers use improvisations to complete a piece of music.
Harmony is based on consonance, a concept whose definition has changed various times though out history. In my opinion, without harmony, you don't have a musical piece. It can be traced back in time to its roots back in western civilization and has been spread all over the globe over centuries. It will continue to be reproduced in every song, concert and musical piece.

The New Scientist Interview --
To geologist
Simon Lamb
, mountains are much more than lumps of rock. He has spent much of the past decade in Bolivia trying to find out how they evolve.
What does it feel like to spend all that time in the mountains?
It is extreme. The altitude is a problem. You have half as much oxygen as at sea level and that is stressful because you never feel completely well. It is hard work to move around, you have to force yourself. The other problem is that there is little infrastructure there. If your vehicle breaks down or somebody gets ill you quickly go from a situation where everything is fine to one that is life-threatening. You might have your breakfast and plan to do something, then by lunchtime you are fighting for your life. It takes a while to recover from that. Eventually, it takes it out of you psychologically. You become more reluctant to take risks - that becomes the biggest problem. When I first went to Bolivia we were adventurous, because we didn't know what could go wrong. We did an awful lot of things that later on in the project I wouldn't have dreamed of doing.
What sort of things go wrong?
There was one time when we wanted desperately to get to the summit of a volcano to sample some gases, but we couldn't see a way to get there. Then a miner said he knew how to take a party of people up the volcano. In fact he was humouring us: he didn't know the way at all. First he took us up the wrong volcano, so we ended up having to climb two volcanoes instead of one. After all this effort we were determined to get the gas sample. It got dark, the guide panicked. He knew he was in trouble and he more or less abandoned us. We were floundering around in the dark trying to feel our way down. We were at our limit. I was pig in the middle between the guide far in the distance and the other two people in our team behind. I was using a flashlight to signal to them where I was, while keeping an eye on the guide and shouting to him. It was a close thing.
When you are in the mountains, does anything distract you from your geology?
Definitely. You suddenly step back and say this is an incredible place to be. We have seen herds of vicuna, and foxes. You can be driving through Bolivia's Alto Plano, come over a hill and see a huge lake covered in flamingos, and they all suddenly rise up. There can be moments of immense beauty, especially late in the day when you get this wonderful low evening light - a rich light, it has a lot of orange in it - and the landscape becomes almost like a painting. It's fantastically beautiful. You do fantasise that you want to get back to civilisation, you want a hot shower, a meal at a restaurant, you want to pamper yourself. But when you get to the city it comes as quite a shock. You immediately regret being back, and straight away you are looking forward to going away again. That's the great thing about these long field trips: you always have the thought that you'll be off again in a week and a new adventure will start. I feel privileged to have experienced all that.

Posts Tagged 'timesheets'
Dump the timesheets? Not so fast.
There is a movement afoot in the CPA world to get rid of timesheets. A major part of the concept is to move away from billing by the hour and move toward "value billing."
Instead of charging based on how many hours you spend, bill the client for what your services are worth or what you can negotiate in a lump sum.
In my tiny part of the accounting world, I've been billing on a fixed price basis for the vast majority of work for around 20 years or more. (So does that mean I was a value-biller before value-biller was cool?)
Getting rid of the timesheets entirely is an idea I have been highly uncomfortable with, but hadn't thought through why.
Until now.
Ed Mendlowitz, CPA, has a great article at CPATrendlines explaining the reasons I'm uneasy. He explains 13 Reasons Timesheet Will Never Die.
In one sentence, look at the opposite side of the income statement – timesheets are a cost control.

Mediterranean Chaparral/Tem perate Shrub AP Environmental Science OConnor Jonnae McCray
Vocabulary Chaparral : vegetation consisting chiefly of tangled shrubs and thorny bushes Shrub : a woody plant that is smaller than a tree
Where's It At Though? Mediterranean Coast of North Africa, South Europe and West Asia Coordinates: 35°N 18°E
The Mediterranean Region
Climate Hot and Dry Summers (105°F) Cool and Moist Winters (50°F) Moderate amount of rain (15 to 40 inches of rain per year)
Plants Salvia Microphylla Grows well in both dry heat and frost and snow. Hardenbergia alba Able to withstand temperature extremes, lack of water and wind. Aromatic Shrubs Sagebrush Acacia These plants also have little hairs on their leaves to collect moisture from the air
Salvia Microphylla
Animals Many of the Animals are small and nocturnal Not many large animals simply because of the heat Golden Jackal In the winter, the Jackal grows a thick coat of hair Helps the environment by keeping the rodent, gazelle, bird and frog population down.
Animals cont. Bezoar Goat A special adaption of a goat is it's wool, which helps it survive in the harsh mountain climate. Also, it's horns helps it defend itself and fight for females. Armadillo Withstand warm weather Beaver
Invasive Species Spanish Broom Spread rapidly and produces seeds that are transported by any type of erosion or rain wash Quickly colonizes disturbed habitats and develops thick shrub communities that prevent colonization Plant grows to human head height and form a tangle containing a large amount of dead wood Considered a fire hazard
Human Impact Due to dry climate, Chaparral areas are at high risk for wildfires often occur due to human error or natural causes. Climate change because of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere during fossil fuel use. The gases explain roughly half of the increased dryness.

|Re: Village Code Grant
|Wed, 15 Aug 2007 10:00:29 GMT
As we want to replace anyway, I'd suggest to start this. I would like to create a branch for removing village from Torque. Some time ago, Thomas V has suggested to use commons-sql instead; I'd second that. I'd volunteer to do the village removal, but I reckon this will take me some months. If Thomas V wants to pursue the integration of village into torque further, the branch approach guarantees that this effort can also be pursued further. What do you think ? Thomas "Jean T.

Beef eaters happily ignore the ecological consequences of cattle herding - the devastation of huge areas of land, the contribution to ground water pollution and the ruination of many less "fortunate" peoples' rural economy. They ignore the fact that beef production is the most resource-hungry way of providing protein, taking up millions of acres which could be used for growing foods more easily transported and stored.
They ignore the cumulative effects of taking in hormones and antibiotics through farming policies based on greed for profit rather than need.

His magnum opus, the posthumous Ethics, in which he opposed Descartes's mind–body dualism, has earned him recognition as one of Western philosophy's most important thinkers. In the Ethics, "Spinoza wrote the last indisputable Latin masterpiece, and one in which the refined conceptions of medieval philosophy are finally turned against themselves and destroyed entirely."

2008-2009 gills alveoli elephant seals Gas Exchange Respiratory Systems
Need O 2 in for aerobic cellular respiration make ATP Need CO 2 out waste product from Krebs cycle O2O2 food ATP CO 2 respiration for respiration
O 2 & CO 2 exchange between environment & cells need moist membrane need high surface area
Why high surface area? maximizing rate of gas exchange CO 2 & O 2 move across cell membrane by diffusion ▪ rate of diffusion proportional to surface area Why moist membranes? moisture maintains cell membrane structure gases diffuse only dissolved in water High surface area? High surface area! Where have we heard that before?
one-celledamphibiansechinoderms insectsfishmammals endotherm vs. ectotherm size cilia water vs. land
Aquatic organisms external systems with lots of surface area exposed to aquatic environment moist internal respiratory tissues with lots of surface area Terrestrial
Water carrying gas flows in one direction, blood flows in opposite direction just keep swimming…. Why does it work counter current? Adaptation!
Blood & water flow in opposite directions maintains diffusion gradient over whole length of gill capillary maximizing O 2 transfer from water to blood water blood front back blood 100% 15% 5% 90% 70%40% 60%30% 100% 5% 50% 70% 30% water counter- current concurrent
Advantages of terrestrial life air has many advantages over water ▪ higher concentration of O 2 ▪ O 2 & CO 2 diffuse much faster through air ▪ respiratory surfaces exposed to air do not have to be ventilated as thoroughly as gills ▪ air is much lighter than water & therefore much easier to pump ▪ expend less energy moving air in & out Disadvantages keeping large respiratory surface moist causes high water loss ▪ reduce water loss by keeping lungs internal Why don't land animals use gills?
air tubes branching throughout body gas exchanged by diffusion across moist cells lining terminal ends, not through open circulatory system Tracheae
Exchange tissue: spongy texture, honeycombed with moist epithelium Why is this exchange with the environment RISKY?
Gas exchange across thin epithelium of millions of alveoli total surface area in humans ~100 m 2
Breathing due to changing pressures in lungs air flows from higher pressure to lower pressure pulling air instead of pushing it
Air enters nostrils filtered by hairs, warmed & humidified sampled for odors Pharynx glottis larynx (vocal cords) trachea (windpipe) bronchi bronchioles air sacs (alveoli) Epithelial lining covered by cilia & thin film of mucus mucus traps dust, pollen, particulates beating cilia move mucus upward to pharynx, where it is swallowed
don't want to have to think to breathe! Medulla sets rhythm & pons moderates it coordinate respiratory, cardiovascular systems & metabolic demands Nerve sensors in walls of aorta & carotid arteries in neck detect O 2 & CO 2 in blood
Monitors CO 2 level of blood measures pH of blood & cerebrospinal fluid bathing brain ▪ CO 2 + H 2 O H 2 CO 3 (carbonic acid) ▪ if pH decreases then increase depth & rate of breathing & excess CO 2 is eliminated in exhaled air
Homeostasis keeping the internal environment of the body balanced need to balance O 2 in and CO 2 out need to balance energy (ATP) production Exercise breathe faster ▪ need more ATP ▪ bring in more O 2 & remove more CO 2 Disease poor lung or heart function = breathe faster ▪ need to work harder to bring in O 2 & remove CO 2 O2O2 ATP CO 2
Concentration gradient & pressure drives movement of gases into & out of blood at both lungs & body tissue bloodlungs CO 2 O2O2 O2O2 bloodbody CO 2 O2O2 O2O2 capillaries in lungscapillaries in muscle
Why use a carrier molecule? O 2 not soluble enough in H 2 O for animal needs ▪ blood alone could not provide enough O 2 to animal cells ▪ hemocyanin in insects = copper (bluish/greenish) ▪ hemoglobin in vertebrates = iron (reddish) Reversibly binds O 2 loading O 2 at lungs or gills & unloading at cells cooperativity heme group
Binding O 2 binding of O 2 to 1 st subunit causes shape change to other subunits ▪ conformational change increasing attraction to O 2 Releasing O 2 when 1 st subunit releases O 2, causes shape change to other subunits ▪ conformational change lowers attraction to O 2
Bohr Shift drop in pH lowers affinity of Hb for O 2 active tissue (producing CO 2 ) lowers blood pH & induces Hb to release more O 2 P O 2 (mm Hg) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 020406080100120140 More O 2 delivered to tissues pH 7.60 pH 7.20 pH 7.40 % oxyhemoglobin saturation Effect of pH (CO 2 concentration)

Dissolved in blood plasma as bicarbonate ion Tissue cells Plasma CO 2 dissolves in plasma CO 2 combines with Hb CO 2 + H 2 OH 2 CO 3 H+ + HCO 3 – HCO 3 – H 2 CO 3 CO 2 Carbonic anhydrase Cl– carbonic acid CO 2 + H 2 O H 2 CO 3 bicarbonate H 2 CO 3 H + + HCO 3 – carbonic anhydrase
Lower CO 2 pressure at lungs allows CO 2 to diffuse out of blood into lungs Plasma Lungs: Alveoli CO 2 dissolved in plasma HCO 3 – Cl – CO 2 H 2 CO 3 Hemoglobin + CO 2 CO 2 + H 2 O HCO 3 – + H +
Mother & fetus exchange O 2 & CO 2 across placental tissue Why would mother's Hb give up its O 2 to baby's Hb?
HbF has greater attraction to O 2 than Hb low % O 2 by time blood reaches placenta fetal Hb must be able to bind O 2 with greater attraction than maternal Hb What is the adaptive advantage? 2 alpha & 2 gamma units
