PowerWindows for Linux
AppGen PowerWindows for Linux is an integrated suite of business applications for small to mid-sized Linux-based businesses. If you purchased their $9.95 US demo advertised in Linux Journal and elsewhere a while back, you may want to give it another look, as AppGen has significantly improved the Java runtime client. In this review I'm going to cover the installation of the provided demo application and discuss the potential advantages PowerWindows could provide you as an established or aspiring Linux consultant/VAR.
AppGen PowerWindows for Linux includes a CD-ROM, a one-page install sheet and three manuals: Installing and Configuring the Applications, Operator Orientation and Using the Applications.
My package was missing the first manual, so I contacted AppGen by e-mail, and they shipped out both this manual and an additional manual on open database connectivity (ODBC).
Installing and Configuring the Applications covers installation of the client/server installations for UNIX, Windows NT and Windows PC+.
The PC+ version of the software is a Microsoft Windows-based version that can run as standalone, peer-to-peer or client/server.
Installation instructions are fairly brief, particularly the set on UNIX installation. The demo version I'm using is slightly different than the full package, so I couldn't really tell if the install routine for the full package went as smoothly as the instructions imply. I'll detail the demo install below.
After installing the software, you will need to create a company. A demo company and data are provided, but you will need to go through and set things up for your, or your client's, company. Make no mistake, this is a big project. You need to make a lot of decisions on how you want things set up, and it's much easier and better to do this work up front than to go back and try to make changes once you're already using the system. The second chapter of the manual provides about 35 pages of instructions detailing the necessary steps to set up each module and how the respective modules will interface with each other. If you are setting up the package for a client, you should get all the affected departments involved in the process so the system can be set up in a manner most useful for everyone.
The third chapter provides technical information for system administrators. This information includes the AppGen data files structures, environment variables that effect the display of currency as well as date/time and database utilities for maintaining and repairing database files.
Operator Orientation takes you through the three different interfaces available: character-based GUI, client/server GUI and PC+. The PC+ interface instruction is only available with the PC+, peer-to-peer product.
For both of the GUI interfaces, all the instructional material assumes you are running a Microsoft Windows product. There is no mention of the Linux Java GUI or screenshots. The character-based interface is targeted for use with what they refer to as "low-cost" dumb terminals, but it can be used at the Linux console or in an xterm. (I don't know if you've priced dumb terminals lately, but with the plummeting price of PCs and with thin-client machines, these things aren't so cheap anymore.) I think I'd prefer to go with a diskless GUI client machine, like the one the LTSP project allows you to set up (www.ltsp.org).
Using the Applications gives an overview of the features for each application of the program, a few pages on the concepts involved, a flow diagram and text of how the application is tied together, as well as describes how it interconnects with the other package applications. Finally, it includes a few pages on typical schedules and procedures for the application you would modify based on your business practices. The applications include accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, payroll processing, billing, bank reconciliation, sales order processing, inventory control, purchase order processing, job cost tracking and bill of materials (BOM).
The manual warns you it does not intend to teach accounting, manufacturing or distribution concepts, and this information is best learned elsewhere.
The ODBC manual describes the theory and installation of the AppGen ODBC server/driver. AppGen uses a two-tier setup with the UNIX-side ODBC server running on the AppGen server machine and a client-side ODBC driver that works in conjunction with the Microsoft ODBC driver manager to interface with any ODBC-aware Windows client software, such as Microsoft Access or Microsoft Query. If you are setting up the system for a client using primarily Microsoft-based desktop machines, this may be a good option to enhance the functionality of the product by allowing common desktop applications to pull up custom reports or spreadsheets for data analysis. I've used a similar approach in our material requirements planning (MRP) system at work, which is driven by OpenIngres, and it has eliminated a lot of manual data entry for folks wanting to manipulate or analyze system data outside of the system.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

INDIANAPOLIS (WLFI) — An Indiana interfaith clergy group is repeatedly urging the state legislature to avoid any battle over gay marriage.
The Interfaith Coalition on Nondiscrimination (ICON), which is based in Indianapolis, published a letter this week signed by more than 230 clergy and leaders of faith communities from throughout the state.
The letter asks the legislature to stop further action on the Marriage Discrimination Amendment, which was passed by the 2011 legislature and is eligible for consideration in the current biennium.
"We as faith leaders ask the legislature to concentrate on matters which deserve attention," said Rev. Marie Siroky, a United Church of Christ ordained minister and president of the coalition. "Religious freedom allows each faith community and denomination to decide for themselves the tenets of their faith, including marriage. Laws cannot be made based on one particular religious view. There is no common-sense reason to devote weeks of attention to this Amendment when Hoosiers need a new budget, jobs and we have a new governor building a new administration."
ICON was founded in 2000 to promote a broad faith community consensus on civil rights issues.
Below is the letter the group published:
Dear Senator and Representative,
In 1998 a group of clergy and members of faith communities began holding prayer services and vigils outside the Statehouse in protest of proposed legislation restricting marriage equality and other justice issues. In 2000 a coalition was formed, and in the 15 years since the first vigil, hundreds of clergy, churches, and faith communities across Indiana have continued to oppose legislation, which would define, and limit, the rights of marriage for same- sex couples.
As Indiana clergy, leaders of faith communities, and religious professionals, our backgrounds and those of the people we serve vary widely. Our views on marriage differ. But we speak with one voice to oppose amending the Indiana Constitution to define marriage.
The proposed "Marriage Amendment" would strip civil rights from committed same-gender couples. As many of us affirmed when supporting legislation to prevent sexual orientation discrimination in the workplace, public accommodations, and housing, each of our faith traditions emphasizes justice. For our society to be just, the civil rights of all people, even those with whom we may disagree, must be protected. We should not be writing discrimination into our State Constitution. This fact alone merits rejection of the Marriage Amendment.
As early as 2005, an Indiana University Center for Survey Research poll demonstrated that the majority of Hoosiers would favor legislation providing hospital visitation rights and inheritance rights for same-gender couples. It strains credibility that such legislation could be enacted, let alone survive legal challenge, under the proposed Marriage Amendment's prohibition against the "incidents of marriage" being legally conferred upon unmarried couples. We find the blanket constitutional exclusion of same-gender committed couples from such rights unconscionable.
We are also persuaded the proposed Marriage Amendment would interfere with religious liberty.
Each of the signatories respects the right of religious groups to decide whether or not to sanction marriage or other unions of same-gender couples. The Indiana Bill of Rights guarantees the free exercise and enjoyment of religious opinions, and prevents the giving of a legal preference to any creed. Preferring and codifying one particular religious view of marriage in the Indiana Constitution flies in the face of both of these guarantees.
The drafters of the Indiana Constitution included six provisions in the Bill of Rights that sought, in various ways, to ensure that the government does not interfere with, or direct, religious beliefs or practices. We ask you to respect this grant of religious freedom and allow Indiana's various faith communities to continue to discern their individual paths with respect to same-gender marriage or other same-gender unions.
Metropolitan Community Churches, the United Church of Christ, Reconstructionist and Reform Judaism, Unitarian Universalist, Unity, Conservative Judaism, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and certain Quaker sects perform and affirm same-sex marriages, many for decades. Episcopal, Presbyterian, and certain Buddhist and Muslim sects bless same-sex unions. Many other faith communities leave the decision to the local congregation.
The Marriage Amendment would increase discrimination and undermine religious freedom. We urge you to vote against further legislation on the amendment.

Pesticides are among the many common stormwater pollutants that can degrade water quality. Stormwater runoff from pest control activities have been found to contain high concentrations of pesticides. When this material washes into local waters they poison fish and contaminate the water.
Your Regulatory Requirements - County of San Diego, Stormwater Ordinance
What can I do? Use Best Management Practices (BMPs)! BMPs are techniques or controls used to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants, such as fertilizers, pesticides, and organic wastes, into the stormwater conveyance system also known as the storm drain system.

Tips: Avoid watering after pesticide application. Use less-toxic alternatives.

This is a photo from a beach on Tahiti from a trip this April. French Polynesia is a great place. The people are friendly and the scenery is spectacular. I also did some wading with some sharks but I have no good shots of that. I was more interested in watching them with both eyes than composing their picture.

will someone tell me what is rong with the slider on the back of the sffle???? pwb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by sezdemon on February 27, 2005 at 11:58 PM (PST)
I just got my 1Gig Shuffle. I am really impressed overall. I commonly use a USB flashdrive transporting files around at work and home. The Shuffle replaces the common flashdrive in my pocket AND allows me to carry a couple of hundred songs around. Two red-flags appeared, however.
Firstly, my work computer is a common Dell. The Shuffle does not fit into the front USB ports! It goes in the back and can be solved with a USB extension cord, but is still a pain.
Secondly, and more importantly, I figured I could load the Shuffle from home, go to work, have iTunes recognize the songs and play them back over my speakers at work. I had trouble getting iTunes to recognize my Shuffle. Consulting Apple's support page (FAQ's), it plainly states that Suffles can only be loaded and used on one computer. I guess the Shuffle can't count to 5, the authorization limit of purchased songs. I still love it, but was just a bit disappointed to learn this. Perhaps Apple could update iTunes to be able to play from a Shuffle, but not transfer?

Sound the idiot alert. I popped the speaker plug out of the back of my desktop at work, plugged it into my Shuffle and have been rockin ever since!
Posted by rochester on March 2, 2005 at 11:51 AM (PST)
Just got mine...(512) love it. This is my first mp3 player & it's size & simplicity are perfect. I'm already pluging it into the stereo & will soon get an adapter for my car. Great lil gadget!!

I got an ipod shuffle yesterday. Nobody on here has metioned sound quaity. I was a bit disappointed by the sound. The sound is a bit thin lacks bass. I wondered if anyone else thought this. Also is the sound quailty better on the other more expensive ipods.
Posted by jpjames in Essex on March 9, 2005 at 5:56 AM (PST)
Love my shuffle. I also have approx. 140 songs on it and more room to fit in my 512!

My daughter gave me a Shuffle (512M) for my birthday. I think it is a brilliant design - small, simple to use and sounds great. And I actually prefer the random access feature.
I had a Creative Flash player last year that died as soon as their 90-day warranty clocked out. Furthermore, the Creative never really sounded very good.
In the power user's article, I noticed the silly cost per gig chart, but that misses the point. Sometimes less, and simpler, is ideal for some users. This is the perfect entry-level or exercise ipod. Apple will sell millions of these!
Posted by JTI2K in FL -USA on March 14, 2005 at 12:53 PM (PST)
The Shuffle is real deal at $99. And I agree with others that it's great product for athletes, while the iPod itself is not. However, I am upset with Apple for pricing guaging when charging $30 for a simple little arm band - almost a 1/3 of the price of the Shuffle! How is this morally justified? Surely it's made in Asia at a ridiculously cheap price. This is simply pricing guaging. Apple should be careful here, lest they turn off new and old customer alike. I will think twice next time I purchase an Apple product.
Posted by pachamama on March 15, 2005 at 4:26 AM (PST)
I just got my Shuffle last night and I think it's pretty cool, so far I haven't got any complaints. I read that the sound quality from the shuffle was much better than other ipod and mp3 player on the market and that helped seal the deal for me getting one. I'm predominantly using it for working out so the size factor is awesome, when I got home and opened it I was surprised to feel just how light it was, it doesn't really weigh anything. I bought the sport case for it and I think that it is so cool, I got it for extra protection, i didn't want to scratch up my shuffle or sweat on it and it does the job well. Kudos to Apple on such a good job. Oh yeah have you seen that cool aluminum case from Griffin that's coming out soon, I just have to get one of them, i only hope that they make a cover for the usb port.

First off, I love shuffle modes, and have used them on all my previous music players; my music collection is large enough to fill a full-sized iPod, so I prefer to leave the choice of song to chance.
A major point against buying a huge player is that I can't actually listen to 20GB worth of music in a day; and, at the end of the day, I can stick my Shuffle on autofill for a new selection. Plus, it's great for driving.
Posted by Bobstar on April 5, 2005 at 7:34 AM (PST)
New Ipod owner. The shuffle is great for mountain biking. Slip it around the neck, under my jersey and go. I can even operate the controls through my jersey. The desire to have music while biking lead me into the ipod world. I think it is great and totally serves my needs.
The comment about the power switch being akward to use would also be my only grip.
Posted by mlb on April 5, 2005 at 12:24 PM (PST)
The iPod Shuffle is really an excellent alternative to the iPod mini and regular iPod. Personally, I agree with halo6 to no end. Yah, while I'm off listening to my music, you have fun counting the pixels in U2 and wiping your screen clean with pamper's baby wipes. Oh! And you can even recharge your battery while you do that! Hrm... As for me... Oh Look! I've still got a couple of hours left.
Hahahahaha. Just kidding. I suppose I'm only insulting the regular iPod/iPod mini because it's beyond my price range. They are both excellent items, but for the average user such as me, then the shuffle is perfect. Oh, and as for not being able to have entire collections on your shuffle, that is true. However, what I think of it is thus: It forces you to put only your favorite songs on it to conserve space, therefore (At least this is it for me) making any song you listen to one of your favorites. A+ for apple's new toy.
Posted by Hobbez in Pine on April 8, 2005 at 12:34 PM (PST)
The ipod shuffle is just a tool to take selections of songs from my cd collections. It is a $100 gadget that allows me to do this and if it gets "borrowed" or damaged it is not like a ipod with a display. It fell on the cement and only has a nick on the case. No problems. It is like a Jeep off road. Used a cassette adapter for the car and turned a four hour drive into a trip down music memory lane. My only problem with the shuffle is the switch on the back. Who's idea was that?!?!
Posted by saewert on April 24, 2005 at 2:08 PM (PST)
I bought a shuffle not because I wanted to satiate my desire for an iPod (which I am waiting to support a couple new features before I want to pony up all the dough) but because I wanted to replace my CD player. When I told a friend I bought a shuffle he scoffed and said that it doesn't even have a screen, and the size is so tiny, so what good is it? I told him it wasn't as good as a real iPod, but it's still a million times better than dragging around a CD player. For me, shuffle mode is not nearly as useful as linear mode, so I can listen to a half dozen CDs in order, the way I like to listen to music.
The feature I am waiting for is gapless audio. This is really important to me because I don't listen to songs, I listen to albums, and I don't want to encode entire albums as single MP3s. I won't buy a big iPod until it has that feature, and bluetooth, and a size > 80 GB (so it'll fit my whole library). Until then, this tiny gadget is stunningly magical.
Posted by Nicholas Rinard on May 9, 2005 at 12:47 PM (PST)
I purchased the Shuffle as a birthday gift for my daughter, who ice skates. (She was thrilled!) The lanyard swings too much and I am considering getting either a clip or armband--but I need something that will hold it in place very securely so it doesn't go flying off and where she can access it easily to repeat a song. I would appreciate it if anyone can suggest a brand name of an item they know is secure.
Posted by sk8ermom on May 14, 2005 at 9:49 PM (PST)
ipod shuffle...
honestly i wasnt sure of buying the shuffle since it was going to be my first ipod, the lack of screen was my biggest concern, now that i've got it for a couple of months, i cant get enough, its fabulous, perfect for the gym, am not affraid i'll *accidently* break it or sth, and its sooo small, yet cute... keeping the shuffle, am thinking of getting another ipod, a color mini maybe, will keep my fingers crossed for the apple event tomorrow... thank you APPLE...
Posted by hamatosha on September 6, 2005 at 10:49 AM (PST)
i think the shuffle is great. it allows you to keep your favourite music in a relatively cheap and sturdy flash player.

Disney And Pixar Characters Collide In New "Disney Infinity" Game
Disney Interactive's new online-to-offline game heavily borrows concepts from Skylanders.
Disney Interactive [3] just unveiled a preview of Disney Infinity [4], a new game launching in June that combines a virtual-world gaming platform with physical toys fashioned after roughly 30 iconic Disney and Pixar characters such as Mr. Incredible, Captain Jack Sparrow, and Sully and Mike of Monsters, Inc..
If this sounds familiar, it's because the conceit of Disney Infinity is strikingly similar to Skylanders [5], the popular game from Activision that combines physical toys and online gaming.
Similar to Skylanders, Disney Inifinity players will be able to store data from the virtual game in the physical toys themselves. Disney Infinity will also, like Skylanders, seamlessly transfer across consoles from the Xbox 360 to the PS3 to the Wii.

The Executive Dashboard provides drill-down insight into overall shipping costs and volumes.
It might take a freight train to hold all of the services offered by CTSI-Global, the Memphis-based global supplier of supply chain management expertise and technology to the logistics industry.
"Our reserves are slim, so we use CTSI-Global whenever we can," says Tom Brissenden, senior manager, logistics, for Arvato. "CTSI-Global's staff knows this business."
How do systems integrate supply chain data into 3rd party platforms?
Some business leaders might be able to show off their "World's Greatest Boss" coffee mug. Ken Hazen, president of CTSI-Global, will soon be able to turn on the television to get similar accolades.
The challenge Technicolor faced was to find a system that would give them complete visibility to their shipments any time of the day or night. They needed a system that would be robust enough to allow them to detect possible delivery delays and take steps to ensure delivery prior to the designated street date.

Spring is the right time to take down all of your draperies and curtains for washing or cleaning. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's directions. Blinds and shades will also need cleaning, which you can do without taking them down.
For aluminum miniblinds, try a damp microfiber cloth, or a mild soap solution and a lint-free towel. Turn the slats toward you, wipe down gently, then reverse the slats and wipe them from the other side. Don't use anything wet on wood blinds; they may warp or discolor. Wipe them down well with a dry microfiber or lint-free cloth, turning the slats as recommended for aluminum blinds.
Pleated cloth shades, fabric pleated shades, and cellular pleated shades require only a good sweep with a vacuum cleaner attachment. For stains, try a dry sponge (found in many hardware stores). Keep these types of shades in a closed position whenever possible, to keep the pleats well-defined.

I was wondering about if your appt was coming up. I'll be thinking of you. And make the most out of this special upcoming weekend!
Hi All-
MJ has an evaluation with a new Occupational Therapist first thing in the morning and then her Neurology Appt in the afternoon. I am starting to get very nervous about both. The OT for what they may say ("she's functional enough" I HATE that term) and the neurologist because I have heard that he has the bedside manner of a rock (and my only other choice is Gainseville several miles away) Also, we are in the process of filling out our forms for MJ and I to get SSI which is a horribly long and humiliating process.....so I am kinda a mess if any of you have some Prayers and Pixie Dust I'd appreciate it.....I'll keep you updated as to what we learn.
The good news is that we have an awesome meet with a friend planned this weekend and we'll be in the MK for the 50th celebration of DL!

Local camera click leads to unwanted global exposure
If you ever wondered why parents can come across as worried and cranky members of the digital world, check out Noam Cohen's Link by Link blog post, Use My Photo? Not Without Permission. Cohen tells the story of a 15-year old high school girl, Alison Chang, from Dallas who was goofing off at a local church-sponsored car wash. Her church youth counselor snapped a photo and uploaded it to the photo-sharing site Flickr, where it caught the eye of an Australian advertising agency. Next thing you know, Alison's likeness appeared on a billboard in Australia.… Read more

In August, an Italian parliamentary commission approved a draft law [JURIST report] that bans women from wearing full-face veils in public. In July, Belgium implemented a law banning women from wearing the burqa [JURIST report] in public, with violators facing the possibility of fines or up to seven days in jail. A French Muslim couple living in the UK filed a challenge [JURIST report] in June in the ECHR over the French ban on full face coverings. Also in June, a Spanish court upheld a city ban on veils in municipal buildings for identification and security purposes. Last October, the French Constitutional Council ruled that the ban conforms with the Constitution [JURIST report]. Also in October, Dutch politician Geert Wilders said that the Netherlands will ban the burqa [JURIST report] as part of the government's plan to form a minority coalition. In August 2010, Austria's conservative Freedom Party [official website, in German] called for a special vote [JURIST report] on whether to ban face veils and the construction of minarets, two of the most visible symbols of the Islamic faith. In July 2010, Spain's lower house of parliament rejected a proposal [JURIST report] to ban the burqa and other full face veils by a vote of 183 to 162 with two abstaining.

Synthetic fiber
Part of a series on |
Fiber |
Natural fibers |
Man-made fibers |
Synthetic fibers are the result of extensive research by scientists to improve on naturally occurring animal and plant fibers. In general, synthetic fibers are created by forcing, usually through extrusion, fiber forming materials through holes (called spinnerets) into the air, forming a thread. Before synthetic fibers were developed, artificially manufactured fibers were made from cellulose, which comes from plants. These fibers are called cellulose fibers.
Early experiments[edit]
Sir Joseph Swan invented the first synthetic fiber in the early 1880s. His fiber was drawn from a cellulose liquid, formed by chemically modifying the fiber contained in tree bark. The synthetic fiber produced through this process was chemically similar in its potential applications to the carbon filament Swan had developed for his incandescent lightbulb, but Swan soon realised the potential of the fiber to revolutionise textile manufacturing. In 1885 he unveiled fabrics he had manufactured from his sythetic material at the International Inventions Exhibition in London.[1]
The next step was taken by Hilaire de Chardonnet, a French engineer and industrialist, who invented the first artificial silk, which he called "Chardonnet silk". In the late 1870s, Chardonnet was working with Louis Pasteur on a remedy to the epidemic that was destroying French silk worms. Failure to clean up a spill in the darkroom resulted in Chardonnet's discovery of nitrocellulose as a potential replacement for real silk. Realizing the value of such a discovery, Chardonnet began to develop his new product,[2] which he displayed at the Paris Exhibition of 1889.[3] Unfortunately, Chardonnet's material was extremely flammable, and was subsequently replaced with other, more stable materials.
Commercial products[edit]
The first successful process was developed in 1894 by English chemist Charles Frederick Cross, and his collaborators Edward John Bevan and Clayton Beadle. They named the fiber "viscose", because the reaction product of carbon disulfide and cellulose in basic conditions gave a highly viscous solution of xanthate.[4] The first commercial viscose rayon was produced by the UK company Courtaulds Fibers in 1905. The name "rayon" was adopted in 1924, with "viscose" being used for the viscous organic liquid used to make both rayon and cellophane. A similar product known as cellulose acetate was discovered in 1865. Rayon and acetate are both artificial fibers, but not truly synthetic, being made from wood.[5]
Nylon, the first synthetic fiber, was developed by Wallace Carothers, an American researcher at the chemical firm DuPont in the 1930s. It soon made its debut in the United States as a replacement for silk, just in time for the introduction of rationing during World War II. Its novel use as a material for women's stockings overshadowed more practical uses, such as a replacement for the silk in parachutes and other military uses like ropes.
The first polyester fiber was introduced by John Rex Whinfield and James Tennant Dickson,[6][7] British chemists working at the Calico Printers' Association, in 1941. They produced and patented the first polyester fibre which they named Terylene, also known as Dacron, equal to or surpassing nylon in toughness and resilience.[8] ICI and DuPont went on to produce their own versions of the fibre.
Synthetic fibers are made from synthesized polymers or small molecules. The compounds that are used to make these fibers come from raw materials such as petroleum based chemicals or petrochemicals. These materials are polymerized into a long, linear chemical that bond two adjacent carbon atoms. Differing chemical compounds will be used to produce different types of fibers.
Synthetic fibers account for about half of all fiber usage, with applications in every field of fiber and textile technology. Although many classes of fiber based on synthetic polymers have been evaluated as potentially valuable commercial products, four of them - nylon, polyester, acrylic and polyolefin - dominate the market. These four account for approximately 98 percent by volume of synthetic fiber production, with polyester alone accounting for around 60 per cent.[9]
There are several methods of manufacturing synthetic fibers but the most common is the Melt-Spinning Process. It involves heating the fiber until it begins to melt, then you must draw out the melt with tweezers as quickly as possible. The next step would be to draw the molecules by aligning them in a parallel arrangement. This brings the fibers closer together and allows them to crystallize and orient. Lastly, is Heat-Setting. This utilizes heat to permeate the shape/dimensions of the fabrics made from heat-sensitive fibers.
Synthetic fibers possess unique characteristics which make them popular dress material:
- Synthetic fibers do not depend either on an agricultural crop or on animal farming.
- They are generally cheaper than natural fiber.
- Easy to wash and dry up quickly.
- More stain resistant than natural fibres.
- Resistant to insects, fungi and rot.
Most of sythetic fibers disadvantages relate to their low melting temperature:
- Synthetic fibers burn more readily than natural.
- Prone to heat damage. Melt relatively easily.
- Prone to damage by hot washing.
- More electrostatic charge is generated by rubbing than with natural fibres.
Common synthetic fibers[edit]
Common synthetic fibers include:
- Nylon (1931)
- Modacrylic (1949)
- Olefin (1949)
- Acrylic (1950)
- Polyester (1953)
- Carbon fiber (1958)
Specialty synthetic fibers include:
Other synthetic materials used in fibers include:
- Acrylonitrile rubber (1930)
Modern fibers that are made from older artificial materials include:
- Glass fiber (1938) is used for:
- industrial, automotive, and home insulation (glass wool)
- reinforcement of composite materials (glass-reinforced plastic, glass fiber reinforced concrete)
- specialty papers in battery separators and filtration
- Metallic fiber (1946) is used for:
- adding metallic properties to clothing for the purpose of fashion (usually made with composite plastic and metal foils)
- elimination and prevention of static charge build-up
- conducting electricity to transmit information
- conduction of heat
In the horticulture industry synthetics are often used in soils to help the plants grow better. Examples are:
- expanded polystyrene flakes
- urea-formaldehyde foam resin
- polyurethane foam
- phenolic resin foam

Logitech Wireless Illuminated Keyboard K800 (dented box) $53.99 with free shipping
No there is no multi-key lag issue. I bought one months ago for my media machine which is my old gaming rig. I have friends over that play games in my living room with this keyboard and a logitech wireless mouse, no issues at all.
Love this keyboard, great battery life, no lag, they sit a good 15ft from the TV and about 10ft from the receiver. The keyboard and mouse both game with a USB extension for the wireless receiver, I daisy chained them and linked the wireless devices to the same receiver, works great, mounts the receiver directly in front of the TV at the base. Regular games played: TF2, LoL, WoW |
Not the most rigorous testing, but the multi-key input looks fine. I'd say it probably works fine for games, but if you're the really competitive type I'm not sure I'd recommend it. Then again, if you were REALLY serious about gaming competitively you'd probably know what your needs are. |
