Introduction The predictions of a nuclear renaissance are not just confined to those in the media, or even to those of us in the industry. Elected government officials, policy makers, think tanks, and even environmentalists from around the world are stating, as did the Committee on U.S. Government Reform of the U.S. House of Representatives, that "nuclear energy must become the primary generator of baseload electricity." With this worldwide interest in adding generation capacity, reducing greenhouse emissions, and moving toward sustainable power generation, nuclear power is experiencing a true rebirth. The result is that the industry is now faced with several resource challenges: how will new plant capacity be procured, and what methodologies exist for ensuring that plant components are not only of the highest quality, but also delivered on time and within budget? And, how will the industry address the need to bring in new talent, and transfer technology to the next generation? Background Since its founding by George Westinghouse in 1886, Westinghouse has provided numerous electricity-related innovations, including the AC technology that electrified the world. Westinghouse built the first industrial atom smasher in 1937, and the first commercial PWR in 1957. Today, the companys technology is installed at well over 40% of the worlds 440 operating nuclear power plants, supplied by Westinghouse or one of its licensees. Never has the company reduced its focus on the nuclear power industry, and in fact, while much of the nuclear power industry lay virtually dormant through the 1980s and 1990s, Westinghouse continued to invest in new technology, including the AP600 and AP1000. In the past 20 years, Westinghouse has invested more than $600 million and thousands of man years in advanced/passive technology. The market has responded quite favorably to the technology, and today, the Westinghouse AP1000 is identified as the design basis for 12 of 17 Generation III+ plants planned in the U.S. Interest is also strong in Europe and Asia. In addition to the AP1000, Westinghouse is also involved with two other next generation nuclear power plant configurations, the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR), and the International Reactor Innovative and Secure (IRIS). The PBMR technology uses a 900°C coolant outlet temperature, and with a rating of 400 MWt, the size is significantly smaller than traditional nuclear power plants and therefore best suited for distributed applications as well as oil sands recovery, steam methane reforming, coal-to-liquids conversion, and hydrogen generation. Westinghouse is also working with 20 technical organizations around the globe to develop the IRIS design. IRIS is a small (335 MWe) pressurized water reactor utilizing an integral reactor coolant configuration. IRIS is best suited for developing countries because of its size, safety characteristics, and use of conventional light water reactor technology. The technology is very amenable to countries with limited nuclear infrastructure because of the familiar light water reactor technology, the long response times before actions need to be taken, and the extremely high level of safety inherent in the design. As the demand for nuclear power continues to grow, so will the need for plants that are designed for specific regions of the world, or for specific applications. The AP1000, PBMR, IRIS, and other developments occurring at Westinghouse represent solutions that address the full spectrum of market needs well into the 21st century. Human Resources In anticipation of the nuclear renaissance, and to prepare to replace current employees who will become retirement eligible over the next decade, Westinghouse began hiring in moderate numbers at the turn of the decade. This followed a period where the company, as well as most industry organizations, did virtually no hiring. Today, Westinghouse has accelerated the hiring of new graduates, with approximately 500 new graduate hires over the past five years, and a projected 150 more per year through at least 2010. The company has also hired 2,000 experienced employees in the past five years, and it is projected that 500 more per year will be brought on through 2010. It is, of course, a challenge to absorb this number of new personnel. Westinghouse has instituted a combination of new hire orientation, technical training, and mentoring to bring the new hires to a level of proficiency so that they are productive and happy. The process for recruiting new talent starts early. Westinghouse looks for qualified third and fourth year college students at career fairs, and by posting internship opportunities on the corporate website, in newspapers and trade journals, and through various colleges and universities. Westinghouse also hosts an "Intern Café" event each year, which provides candidates the opportunity to talk with a wide range of managers, and for managers to assess the skill sets of interns and match them with their particular needs. Interns at Westinghouse are assigned a mentor to guide them through the duration of their internship. The mentor works with the student to provide direction on a project that has been assigned specifically for them. At the end of the internship, Westinghouse holds an Intern Fair, which gives the student an opportunity to display the results or findings of their project, as well as receive an evaluation from their manager. Job offers are then made based on the level of success with the project, and the assessed potential of the individual. New graduates are recruited from approximately 25 colleges and universities throughout the world. More than 400 candidates are invited each year to attend a day long session to meet with various Westinghouse managers, upon which they are assessed on their skill sets, GPA, and degrees obtained. New hires attend a one week orientation held off site. They are then assigned to their hiring manager, and a mentor. All new engineers are mentored by experienced employees, including close to 2,000 that have actual "hands on" new build experience in the U.S., Europe and Asia. Westinghouse mentors are selected by a formal review process after they achieve the requisite experience and demonstrate the required traits, such as technical leadership inside and outside the company, successful consultation to business leaders, and successful mentoring of other employees. Mentors are also identified based on their critical skill set and the demonstrated level of capability in transferring that skill set onto others. Westinghouse is also helping to insure that new college graduates will be properly trained and enthused about a career in the nuclear power industry. For example, the company is supporting the development of a nuclear engineering program at the University of Pittsburgh, near the corporate headquarters in Western Pennsylvania. The University of Pittsburgh program is starting with an undergraduate concentration and will likely advance to a graduate degree in the next few years. Classes in specific nuclear engineering areas will be taught by Westinghouse employees. This will allow Westinghouse expertise to be transferred to both university undergraduates and to current Westinghouse employees who desire to advance their knowledge in the nuclear engineering area. Grooming new talent and continuously developing the skills of seasoned employees has proven to be a worthwhile investment. Westinghouse has an incredibly low turnover rate of just 3%, and for new graduates, the 5 year retention rate is 85%. A Commitment to Supply Chain Management Westinghouse has made significant infrastructure investments in supply chain management to support new build activities, with an emphasis on cost management, capacity management, shortened procurement cycles, and supplier oversight, especially in the area of quality. The challenge was to develop a supply chain that is capable of supporting the volumes and schedules of the nuclear renaissance, while optimizing flexibility, fairly distributing liability, and achieving profitability targets. Recognizing that a strong commitment is required by suppliers, a team of Supply Chain Managers have been assigned to facilitate communication with critical suppliers, and to improve efficiencies in the constant transactions that take place. Supply Chain Managers also identify suppliers that represent an element of risk to the success of projects. They look at factors such as capacity issues, whether the supplier also supplies to a competitor, the historical business relationship, and the overall complexity of working with the supplier. Westinghouse continuously evaluates, rates and monitors its suppliers, and single source, multiple source and alternative sources are identified. The focus is on increasing the velocity of movement through the supply chain, and mitigating the risk of constraint and cost at each tier of the supply chain. With the AP1000, Westinghouse involved major suppliers early in the design process. These suppliers were given the freedom to influence design, with the aim of ultimately improving cost efficiencies and streamlining the overall planning of the project. The result of these efforts is a power plant with fewer sourced components from a pool of tightly integrated suppliers and sub-suppliers. Strategic Sourcing Managing the strategic sourcing process is something that Westinghouse is taking very seriously. The company manages the entire supply chain, and holds all parties in the chain accountable for not just adhering to quality, cost and schedule requirements, but also providing input in any issues and challenges that may arise in the process. By establishing global and regional sourcing teams, the company can better streamline the sourcing process, and better identify capacity needs. With firmly established supplier relationships in place, terms and conditions are established once, rather than on a project by project basis. Essentially, these are strategies that take the waste out of the supply chain and provide a positive impact on cost, schedule and overall customer satisfaction. The Westinghouse AP1000 was designed with these challenges in mind. Localization and Technology Transfer By working closely with Korean customers and implementing an extensive and aggressive technology transfer program, Westinghouse has been able to assist in establishing self-reliance and localization in Koreas nuclear industry. In effect, the primary component supply chain was extended with Korea developing the capability to design, manufacture, and supply NSSS primary equipment and much of the BOP equipment for their plants. The goal of achieving 95% technical self-reliance for nuclear component design, manufacturing and procurement was met. As a result, Korean industry will be active in support of the anticipated technology transfer and component supply for the AP1000 nuclear plants anticipated for construction in China, thereby further extending the supply chain. The Positive Impact of the AP1000 on Supply Chain Management The AP1000 standard plant is comprised of 50 large and 250 small modules. These modules are constructed in parallel and independent of one another at a shipyard-like factory. The components are then assembled on-site. The result is a nuclear power plant with an overall construction schedule of 60 months, including only 36 months from the first concrete pour to fuel load. Equally important, this simplification results in lower construction and operating and management costs. For example, the AP1000 has: • 50% fewer valves • 35% fewer safety grade pumps • 80% less pipe • 45% less seismic building volume • 85% less cable The AP1000 is a standard design that is not altered. Therefore, all plants use the same suppliers for all engineered components. All pumps, valves, instruments and heat exchangers are identical, ensuring that significant and long term economies of scale will be achieved. Supply Chain Success Factors In the process of sourcing components for the AP1000, several factors will influence success. First, the supply chain must be integrated. To achieve this, there must be trust and relationship development and willingness to share in collaborative problem solving, risk sharing and cross-functional/location enterprise teaming. Secondly, the designer and supplier need to be committed to achieving the ultimate goal of meeting and exceeding customer satisfaction by providing a true value chain for the end user. Thirdly, contractual governance must be aligned. Various arrangements can be held, from "arm's length" contracts, to joint ventures, strategic alliances, to full equity participation. By entering into various levels of commitment with suppliers, all parties are held accountable for quality/reliability, maintaining capacities, and adhering to schedules. Again, the end goal is to optimize customer satisfaction. Looking Ahead As the nuclear renaissance continues to develop, the industry will have further challenges that need to be addressed, particularly as they relate to supply chain management. We must continue to manage and identify global capacity, determine worldwide demand, identify gaps in the supply chain and implement gap closure plans. We must align supply strategies to the area of the world where the plant is to be built or supported to minimize logistics complexity and improve cost effectiveness. We must identify customer localization requirements, reduce lead times, and continue the pursuit of qualified suppliers. The diligent project execution of the next wave of nuclear power plants will ensure that the renaissance continues well into the future. Finally, the investment in and training of human capital is the driving force behind this industry. The effective transfer of technology from our industrys seasoned engineers and scientists to a new generation of innovators will ensure that nuclear power generation technology continues to move forward.

Beneficial associations between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi play a major role in terrestrial environments and in the sustainability of agroecosystems. Proteins, microRNAs, and small molecules have been identified in model angiosperms as required for the establishment of arbuscular mycorrhizal associations and define a symbiotic 'toolkit' used for other interactions such as the rhizobia–legume symbiosis. Based on recent studies, we propose an evolutionary framework for this toolkit. Some components appeared recently in angiosperms, whereas others are highly conserved even in land plants unable to form arbuscular mycorrhizal associations. The exciting finding that some components pre-date the appearance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi suggests the existence of unknown roles for this toolkit and even the possibility of symbiotic associations in charophyte green algae.

Warm for winter afternoon rides
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I have worn these on rides as cold as 34 degrees, and while my feet got a bit chilly, my legs were just fine. They fit fine (5'-8" and size small) with no slipping and keep me warm. Good stuff.
Crisp morning and sunny day suitable
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Good quality warmers, with excellent silicone grips on the inside and outside of the top, and a snug zip at the bottom. These didn't slip an inch! They're not very thick, so great on a crisp winter morning and weren't too hot when the sun came out either.
I'm a long-legged 6'3" and went with the L, not the XL as others recommended here, and the L were absolutely fine - with a couple of inches to spare under the shorts. Any larger, and they would be too loose - so if you have long chicken legs, go L.
Great warmers
Member since
I'm 6'3" and the XL fit perfect. Very soft on the inside and the double grippers (inside/outside) at the top of the leg make sure these warmers stay in place. Very happy i bought them, it was my first Hincapie purchase.
These are awesome
Jim black
Member since
As always, great fit and quality (6'2" size XL - they are slightly on the long side, but not a huge issue) - as expected with Hincapie. Very warm, pretty much replaced by bib tights. The red is a great alternative to the standard black ones.

Telescoping Washer Set
Our window washer is neat...we have floor to ceiling windows and sure appreciate the fact that we don't have to get out that 12 ft step ladder everytime we want to wash the front windows. It "lives" up to its description....we can extend it out so far and have many choices of what type of "end" to use on the windows, plus the water does not leak down your arm, like most of these products when you put a hose on them. PLUS we had also gotten the best pet covers for our furniture, just wish we would have had the ones after they changed the position and what type of "ties" that they have to hold them on the furniture.

Service was great, received the telescoping washer set in just a few days after ordering. Sorry I can't give a review of the product, I honestly haven't had time to use it.

Telescoping Washer set
I just received the Telescoping Washer Set.
I put it together with no problem. I went outside to do a 'dry' run. I immediately noticed a concern. The only way to have full brush contact on the windows is to stand directly under the window. This would explain why a few reviews complained about getting soaked.
I think there should be some kind of ball joint at the end of the rod where the brush attaches. This would allow a person to stand further back and still have full brush contact. Just a thought.
August 2, 2013
Exceeded all expectations
Worked very well from the ground.. Did not need to climb up & down off ladder. Job completed in short amount of time. Unit was very easy to use. Only initial draw back was it took too much soap, but after adjusting water pressure & amount of water/soap mix it worked as intended.

The 'instructions' label the parts by number, with no key, or recommended use for each piece. Which is the 'floor brush' ##6?# and what is that for? is the 'soft round brush' ##1?# for windows? what else can it be used for, or should it be reserved for windows? I also got the power attachment and it has similarly minimal instructions. Is there anything this should NOT be used on?

California's foie gras ban went into effect in July 2012, making the in-state sale and production of products derived from force-fed birds illegal. Today, the battle against this purported delicacy continues.
For determined consumers, such as Californians who travel to Nevada to buy foie gras, the banned product can still be found. In addition to dining on the fattened liver, Californians who reportedly travel to Reno to attend foie gras tastings hosted by a loacl specialty food purveyor are also encouraged to stock up on foie gras for their home kitchens and dinner parties.
Some restaurants continue to plate foie gras by exploiting statutory loopholes in the ban. For example, Hot's Kitchen in Los Angeles argues that it is serving the product and not selling it to consumers, by offering it for free to customers who purchase other pricey menu items. The legality of this approach will soon be tested, as PETA has filed a lawsuit against the restaurant for serving the banned food, arguing that steep prices for other food items suggest that foie gras sales are, in fact, being made. In addition, California restaurant-goers are rumored to still be able to dine on foie gras in certain restaurants by employing the "wink-and-nod" approach. Before facing strong public outcry, San Francisco's Presidio Social Club kept foie gras on its menu by arguing that the restaurant, which sits in a national park under federal jurisdiction, is exempt from state law.
Shortly after the ban was enacted, Hudson Valley Foie Gras (a New York producer), Association des Éleveurs de Canards et d'Oies du Québec (a Canadian organization representing foie gras producers), and Los Angeles' Hot's Restaurant Group Inc. filed suit in a U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, claiming that the ban is unconstitutional and vague and that it interferes with federal commerce laws. The judge denied the preliminary injunction that would have rendered the ban unenforceable; however, the case is expected to go to trial, unless a motion to dismiss the lawsuit filed by the California Attorney General's office is granted.
Finally, as can be expected when a humane food movement victory is won in front of an international audience, complaints in the aftermath of California's foie gras ban continue to be reduced to senseless hyperbole. Among them include the absurd notion that nearly all the food that Americans consume today is inhumanely raised, so why even bother with foie gras?
The truth is that any time that political will demonstrates the value of compassionate food choices, it is a victory for animals. Importantly, the above challenges are the exception and not the norm in California, and no amount of misguided rhetoric or legal finagling will change the fact that the practice of gavage – the force feeding of grain through a suffering animal to create a liver ten times the size of a normal one – is not representative of California's humane values.
Californians still seeking to serve and consume foie gras are, simply put, dining on the wrong side of history.

24 July 2012 - 9:09It's All Downhill From Here
Since none of us were around or free for Father's Day, we had all agreed to postpone our annual ride until a time more convenient. I spent Sunday with the usual suspects at Sugarbush Resort. We thought it might be fun to hurl ourselves down the mountainside at hight rates of speed on bikes with gobs of suspension.
It was fun.
Except I was the first one to remember why full face helmets are such a necessity for this aspect of cycling. Being on a strange rental bike that wasn't set up for me was only part of the problem. The other part was poor piloting skills, but the result was swift and severe. I lost the front end exiting a turn, and my face hit the ground at alarming speed. My hands never even left the handlebars. It took me a minute to get up, and when I did, I found that I had ripped my shirt, scuffed up my belly, and scared the crap out of myself. Not literally, but it did take me a few minutes before I could pull myself together and hop on the bike again. In retrospect, it was probably a good thing I had my confidence shaken so early in the day, as I kept the rest of my runs on the conservative side.
Besides being a banged up rental bike, the Banshee Scythe was actually a blast to ride. It was equipped with a Boxxer, and some sort of Marzocchi rear shock which had about 4 different knobs on it that did precisely nothing. The brakes were a 4 piston Hayes something or other that had terrible lever feel, and barely adequate stopping power. The front end was too firm, the rear to gushy but it didn't stop us from riding some of the steepest and gnarliest stuff we'd seen in a long time. It's amazing what these bikes will allow you to do.
Reveling in the trails we were riding, we all agreed that we could each use a new bike, something big slack and heavy, and most importantly, set up correctly for it's pilot. Of course, downhilling is an expensive sport. Not only do you have to have the bike and equipment, you also need access to lifts. And the time to ride it, which is something that none of us really have much of.
Still, off in fantasy land, I picked myself out a real nice bike.
I used to race DH on a GT STS back in the day, before upgrading to an Ellsworth Dare. But I had always wanted a Schwinn Straight 8. I always thought that thing was pretty boss. These frames were made in Colorado by Yeti, and Yeti made some of the nicest stuff on earth. So I decided that my fantasy DH bike would be a no holds barred 303.
It comes in black.

Camera Obscura
From ZeroWiki
Created by: Dr. Kunihiko Asou
Other names: Shadow Obscure, Black Camera and Shaeiki
Games: Fatal Frame, Fatal Frame II, Fatal Frame III and Fatal Frame IV
Quote: "So this is the Camera Obscura... It takes pictures of impossible things..."
The term Camera Obscura defines a camera within the Fatal Frame Series that has the ability to exorcise ghosts using different types of film. It is the main device (weapon) used within the games by players to fight against the ghosts and spiritual entities encountered throughout the stories.
The camera is one of many paranormal devices created by Dr. Kunihiko Asou, an occultist, philosopher, and folklorist. His research and terminology involving the cameras is known as "Mystical Science". Dr. Asou created his first prototype camera that he let his friend, Seijiro Makabe, use while conducting research in the Minakami region. Neither Seijiro or the camera were seen again.
It was known that Dr. Asou continued his research to find bigger and better ways of ultimately improving his camera obscura, including using occult and mystical artifacts such as a piece of the Holy Mirror. While Dr. Asou invented the Camera Obscura, he didn't create/build all of them, as there are many that were built and developed by his assistants.
After Dr. Asou's death, his Camera Obscura became a popular collectible for enthusiasts. Many of the cameras are scattered throughout Japan; however, most of them do not work any more. For example, the camera that Rei finds in her former fiancé Yuu's Room, is broken.
It is also used to catch images and ghosts in the area which give you clues on where you should go next. Its filament detects violent and non violent ghosts nearby, showing red/orange for violent and blue for non-violent. The camera can be upgraded during game play (each camera's method is different; see upgrading the camera for more info), and there are three abilities you can upgrade; maximum value, range and sensitivity. Each of them has a corresponding value of points needed to upgrade it. The higher the level, the more effective the camera will be. The Camera Obscura can also be equipped with several types of lenses that can be found and earned during the game and for fulfilling certain objectives to make the camera more powerful.

Dangerous Side Effects
- Main Article: Overexposure
The Camera Obscura is still considered a dangerous object, as over-usage of the camera can inflict disastrous side-effects on its user. Overuse of the camera may result in the user being driven insane by what they see, and this can cause them to commit suicide.
Cameras in the Fatal Frame Series
Fatal Frame Camera
- Main article: FF: Camera
The first camera in the Fatal Frame Series is actually never called by the name 'Camera Obscura' in the game. However, this camera is considered to be one of Dr. Asou's completed Camera Obscuras. It uses a piece of the Holy Mirror from the Himuro Mansion to work properly. The camera is given to Mikoto Munakata by the girl in the white kimono. How the camera ended up in the mansion in the first place is a mystery.
Fatal Frame II Camera Obscura
- Main article: FFII: Camera Obscura
The second camera in the series is considered the 'prototype' for other cameras encountered in the series. Dr. Asou gave this camera to his friend Seijiro Makabe to aid him in his research, while he went on to perfect his Camera Obscura creations. It is in Fatal Frame II that the term 'Camera Obscura' is first used. Mio Amakura finds the camera tossed away in a corner of the Osaka House in Minakami Village.
Fatal Frame II FPS Camera Obscura
- Main article: FFII: FPS Camera Obscura
This camera was specially designed for the Xbox release of Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly. It is used in the FPS mode of the game, and has its own unique capture circle and camera interface. For plot purposes of the series, it is considered to be the same prototype camera as the normal Camera Obscura seen in Fatal Frame II.
Fatal Frame III Camera Obscura
- Main article: FFIII: Camera Obscura
Another one of Dr. Asou's cameras. This specific camera exists both in the real world and dream-world. The version of the camera that exists in the real world does not work (and is also a save point in the game), while the camera in the dream world does work properly. The real world version of the camera was sent to Yuu Asou by Kei Amakura, who found it in the ruins of the Kuze Shrine. It is unknown how this particular camera arrived at the shrine, although folklorist Akito Kashiwagi is mentioned as having a camera with him. (It is unknown if Akito's camera is also this same camera.) This camera is not to be confused with Rei's Camera from the same game.
Fatal Frame IV Camera Obscura
- Main articles: FFIV: Camera Obscura & FFIV: Misaki's Camera Obscura
Main Camera Obscura ("Lunar Eclipse" Camera Obscura)
This camera has a moon and cloud-like design, reminiscent of cloudy-moon carvings that are significant on Rougetsu Island. Its charge circle mimics the stages of the lunar eclipse, from the full moon to the actual eclipse, similar to the theme of the ritual performed at the island. Dr. Asou donated this camera to Rougetsu Island as a token of his appreciation for their assistance, which helped him improve the design. It is found by Madoka in a broken display in the Kunihiko Asou Museum. Interestingly enough, there are other cameras in the room all displayed on a separate case than the Inside the Director's Office in the Hospital, though it is unknown if these cameras function the same way as the other camera obscuras. In the game, there are multiple carvings bearing a pattern which resembles the camera's outer edge design.
Misaki Asou's Camera Obscura has a very different design from the camera used by Madoka and Ruka. She brings it with her to the island, and finds it on the floor after she blacks out for the first time. The design of the camera very closely mimics the design of Fatal Frame I's Camera Obscura, except that the camera is decorated with a gold-colored metal that has rusted and worn down (most likely from years of use). The camera seemingly focuses on recovering lost memories from the past, and more photos of past scenes are taken with it than Ruka's camera. This camera is also one of Dr. Asou's prototypes, which he deemed a more successful and stronger example of his work, and it was handed down in the Asou Family. Fatal Frame 2's Camera Obscura is also considered a prototype, though it is not known which camera was created first.
Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir Camera Obscura
- Main article: Camera Obscura(SC)
Nothing is known about the history of the Camera Obscura used in Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir, except that it appears to have belonged to the player character since before the start of the game. Unlike other cameras in the series, the Camera Obscura in Spirit Camera is quite basic. It cannot be upgraded and only consumes one type of film, which seems similar in damage and recharge period to Type-14 Film. Like in the original game, combos and Fatal Frame shots cannot be achieved. When the player takes damage a "cracked glass" effect appears on the screen for a few seconds. Its few lenses are used to solve puzzles rather than to aid in battle.
Taking Pictures
The viewfinder is the screen that appears once the camera is raised. Entering viewfinder mode allows you to take photographs. Viewfinder mode shows the selected Basic Function/lens, capture circle, health bar and filament. In Spirit Camera, viewfinder mode is the default view throughout the game.
Photo Album
Photos taken with the Camera Obscura can be saved to photo albums on the PS2's memory card, or into the Wii's memory.
The album can be accessed through "Album" on the menu at a save point. Photos can then be placed into the album and saved. Each album has a photo limit (24 for Fatal Frame, 16 for the others). Pictures can also be deleted from the album from the menu inside the album screen. If the album is not saved after each edit the changes will be lost. After filling an album a new one must be created or old pictures deleted from the filled album.
In Fatal Frame IV, any photos not saved to an album at the end of each chapter will be automatically deleted.
Spirit List
The Spirit List is included in every game of the series, and lists every ghost photographed (attacking, vanishing and hidden ghosts all appear).
- Fatal Frame Spirit List - 108 (PS2) 119 (Xbox). Completing it unlocks the "Zero" Special Function.
- Fatal Frame II Spirit List - 152 (PS2) 178 (Xbox). Completing the PS2 version of the spirit list unlocks the Serial lens and promotional artwork. Completing the Xbox version of the spirit list unlocks these along with the Type G costume.
- Fatal Frame III Spirit List - 217 (PS2). Completing it unlocks Miku and Rei's Headband accessory, and Kei's White Glasses accessory.
- Fatal Frame IV Spirit List - 233 total / 227 captured (Wii). Completing it unlocks the Festival function, although this is impossible due to a glitch and only 227 can be captured.
- Deep Crimson Butterfly Spirit List - 190 (Wii). Completing 100 entries or more unlocks the Maid accessories.
Fighting Ghosts
The main feature of the Fatal Frame series is fighting ghosts with the camera. Upon being attacked by a hostile ghost, the character must use the camera to exorcise and fend off the ghost.
Capture Circles
- Main article: Capture Circle
Each camera in the Fatal Frame series has its own unique capture circle. This circle is the targeting system for the Camera Obscura. It serves as an indicator to find hidden spirits, spiritual phenomena, or as a way to attack hostile ghosts. In each installment of the series (and even sometimes within console versions) the camera/circle are different.
- Main article: Filaments
The Filament is the coloured bar that appears on the Camera Obscura and game screen, that tracks ghosts and indicates the presence of ghosts. When an attacking, vanishing or hidden ghost is nearby, the filament will react and begin to glow. The glow intensifies as the spirit gets closer, or is more accurately aimed at.
Types of Shots
- Main article: Camera Shots
Throughout the series, there are many different shots the camera can take to battle ghosts with.
Upgrading the Camera
Fatal Frame and Fatal Frame III
Points obtained from battling ghosts must be used to upgrade each of the camera's functions or power-up lens levels.
Fatal Frame II
Before a function can be upgraded with points, a spirit orb must first be used in the slot you wish to upgrade. Spirit orbs must be obtained from battling ghosts and around the village before they can be used with a slot. After inserting the spirit orb, obtained points can be used to upgrade the function or lens.
Fatal Frame IV
Blue and red crystals must be found around the island, or in Mission Mode, to upgrade basic functions and lenses. The amount of each crystal picked up is random. Points are no longer used for upgrades.
Camera Equipment
Camera Films
- Main article: Films
In the Fatal Frame Series, there are several different kinds of film that can be used in conjunction with the Camera Obscura. Over the course of the series, different kinds of camera film have been available for use. These films range from the weakest Type-07 film to the strongest Type-零 film.
Camera Lenses
- Main article: Lenses
Lenses were first introduced in Fatal Frame II. They have many uses, such as inflicting higher damage on ghosts. They are picked up like normal items around the game.
Camera Functions
- Main article: Functions
Functions (called Special Functions in Fatal Frame) are special abilities in each game that are significant upgrades to your camera. They are unlocked in various ways, from beating the game on certain modes to completing the spirit list or Mission Mode. Uses of these functions include the ability to zoom in and out, automatically track ghosts, and shoot without expending film.
Spirit Orbs
Spirit Orbs are used to upgrade the Camera Obscura in Fatal Frame II. They are found randomly when defeating ghosts and around the village. One must be put into each empty slot in the camera's functions and lenses, and then used with points to upgrade.Crystals
In Fatal Frame IV, blue and red crystals are used to upgrade the Camera Obscura and the Spirit Flashlight. They replaced the old upgrade system of points and/or Spirit Orbs.Special Abilities
- Main Article: Special Abilities

- Ruka Minazuki - found camera dropped by Madoka
- Misaki Asou - brought camera from home
Misc. Info
- The word 'Camera Obscura' is an actual photography term.
- In the real world the camera obscura was the predecessor to cameras. They were darkened enclosures in which images of outside objects were projected through a small aperture or lens onto a facing surface. They were basically portable dark rooms in which pictures were taken. There are no similarities to the Camera Obscura in the Fatal Frame Series and the real world camera obscura save for the name.
- In Latin Camera Obscura means 'dark room'.
- In Fatal Frame III, Rei initially uses a normal camera which can also take pictures of ghosts, but has no exorcising effect, when she first enters the dream.

03/26/2013 - The PBS program "Need to Know" devoted a portion of their March 22 program to discuss medical devices. They began by posing a question: is the federal government doing enough to protect our safety? Not from crime or terrorism but from the very real dangers of some medical devices cleared for use by the Food and Drug Administration. While the vast majority of these devices are safe and effective, the Government Accountability Office reports that hundreds are recalled every year. And the impact of an un-safe device? It can be devastating.Joining host Jeff Greenfield on the program was Pew's Dr. Josh Rising, project director of the medical devices initiative at The Pew Charitable Trusts. Here is a portion of their conversation."JEFF GREENFIELD: Now I mentioned that you're interested in regulation here and abroad. When you look abroad and look at other countries, how are they doing on the whole issue of regulation, medical safety, the safety of these medical devices, how do we stack up against some other first world countries?DR. JOSH RISING: I think there's one other very relevant example from Australia that I think would be illustrative to show the kind of potential of what can be done if you have a system that really tracks the medical devices. So in Australia they have what's called a registry which tracks everybody in their country who's gotten a hip or knee replacement. And this has been going on for about the past 10 or 12 years in Australia. And with this information, as they saw what happened with patients, they followed the patients over time, they discovered that patients who had metal on metal hip replacements, they discovered that patients had a much higher revision rate – meaning that the hip implants were having problems, and the surgeries need to be redone in these patients. And this was happening at a much higher rate than with patients who had other hip implants. So the registry communicated this information…and the docs in Australia stopped using these metal on metal hip replacements years before we stopped using them here in the United States. So it shows the potential that's out there if we're able to collect information on what's happening in the real world with medical devices and what's happening with medical devices and we can take appropriate action when we find if there are some devices that do have some problems....JEFF GREENFIELD: We've heard from some companies that you put on more regulation, what you're going to do is you're going to increase cost, you're going to slow innovation. Is that relevant to what you've been talking about in terms of what you want to see done? Is that a legitimate concern?DR. JOSH RISING: You know certainly we think of a better system of post market surveillance of figuring out what's happening in the real world as being a win for both safety and innovation.You know there's some people who talk about safety and innovation as being diametrically opposed that if you improve safety, you're going to hurt innovation or vice versa. But we see post market surveillance as a way where you can really achieve the best of both worlds. And that's if we're able to collect real time information on what's happening with medical devices we can improve safety because we can identify devices that might be problematic and then remove them from the market place, but it's also going to help innovation because this is also going to give manufacturers much more information about what's happening with their devices than they have now, and they're going to be able to use that information in the next generation of their devices, so we really see this need to collect more information on these devices as being both a win in the safety and innovation columns.''

The rains of May and June that got our warm season off to a start brought a wet one as well. Both months saw far more than usual precipitation, and were also above normal in temperature. July has continued with the heat, if not so much with the moisture. But still we are seeing the effects of a warm, wet early summer.

Jobs in Atlanta, Georgia - Page 2
Atlanta, GA Employment Information
Atlanta Overview
Atlanta offers a rare mix of Southern hospitality, dynamic city life, and cultural and corporate diversity. Due to modest hiring conditions and a depressed real estate market, the region is having more difficulty rebounding from the recession than other major cities. However, the Atlanta job market looks to have a promising future based on its talented workforce of 2.7 million.
Atlanta Job Opportunities
Atlanta's corporate base is strong in logistics, bioscience and health IT. In addition, the city is headquarters for such well-known brands as Coca-Cola and Home Depot and home to such university powerhouses as Emory, Georgia State and Georgia Tech.
Trade, transportation and utilities account for nearly 25 percent of jobs in Atlanta, followed by professional/business services. Both sectors have been reporting strong growth. On the other hand, the Atlanta region has seen continued decline in the government and financial services sectors.
Atlanta Employment Trends
Atlanta's employment conditions, which were hampered during the recession, are slowly improving. The Atlanta unemployment rate, which was 10 percent or higher for most of 2010, was in single-digit territory for much of 2011 and into the first half of 2012. After declining for nearly two years, the size of the employment pool has been increasing since mid-2010. More recently, online Atlanta job postings have increased.
Moody's Analytics expects Atlanta jobs to increase 2.5 percent between Q2 2012 and Q2 2013, nearly double the 1.3 percent increase expected in the nation's job supply during that time.

Best-Paying Work-from-Home Jobs
It's easier than ever to work from home. Of course, not every job is a mobile job, and some companies aren't interested in having their employees work from home.
2013 Marketing Jobs Outlook

With Phish returning to the University of Illinois at Chicago this summer, we found it fitting to review their first UIC performance, which went down on 6/18/94, for Episode 19 of Typeiicast.
In this week's show, Steve, Sam and I discuss and share clips from this type 2 jam laden gem, beginning with Maze from the first set, and followed by multiple examples of exquisite improvisation from the second set. In addition to audio clips from Peaches En Regalia, Maze, David Bowie, Tweezer, You Enjoy Myself, Chalk Dust Torture, and Tweezer Reprise, Episode 19 also includes a couple of Typeiicast firsts: we play a Grateful Dead Mind Left Body Jam clip from 10/25/73 to illustrate contrast to Phish's approach to the same chord structure, and we share a couple of minutes of the psychedelic YEM vocal jam. We encourage everybody to give this show multiple listens and hope you enjoy unearthing its many gifts as much as we did.

Who would an Arabian prince or a pro-football player envy? Draftfcb Portugal, in a series of new and entertaining print ads for Harmony XL-Fit condoms, depicts men that other men would envy because they seemingly have it all ̶ except they just might be lacking in one department. It seems that in this Cannes Lion-winning case, size does matter.

Last year Apple Stores and AT&T owned retail outlets closed early, handed out water to the throngs of people lined up around their blocks, and then re-opened at 6pm local time to dispense the first generation iPhone to screams, cheers, and web-wide coverage.
This year, it looks like we'll all have to come just a little bit earlier:
We just got a tip that AT&T store managers received emails stating that the iPhone launch would be at 8:00 AM
More, as they say, as this develops...
I'm losing my mind waiting for the 2.0 software update! Every day I check and every day it ain't there. Is it the 27th? Is it Jul. 11? WTF is the date for that???
Interesting timing if true. Just about to pull trigger on yesterday's announcement of unlocked centro.
@mofo: The iPhone 2.0 update will be either Now or Not Now. ;)
Or rather, let's put it this way... it won't be any later than the 11th, since the 3G runs the new firmware. It's entirely possible that they could release the 3G without it, or not release the update to the 2G right away, but let's just pretend that won't happen.
Anyway, I would not wait in line all night to get an iPhone. That's a little ridiculous; I wouldn't wait in line all night for anything, though.
I want to purchase an I-Phone to be delivered to my Botswana address, kindly send me the Proforma invoice to email@example.com or fax to +27865140308.
Price to be quoted in CIF to: Plot 71, Unit 22/23, International Cormerce Park, Gaborone, Botswana.
Yours trully
Khulu Mokwena
Cell +27833702545
To: thekevinmonster
You are the lucky old son, we will wait the whole night in line to get an iphone.

" Great job. We didn't have all of our requirements detailed and didn't really know what we were wanting when we started but that didn't stop Addon Solutions from giving us a great end product. Very understanding and patient. We will rehire them for more in the future. We asked for highly customized pieces also and they delivered. "

" good enough for the POC project but need to be more professional for the bigger one "

" Guys did a great job, great communication, time delays and such were actually our fault... not theirs, just for the record.... will use these guys again, reliable :) "

After search and using other outsource web companies, I found this company to be the best.
Sep 20, 2013
" Great job. Project took a while because I was away on holiday and very busy yet he was so patient with me and completed the job very quickly once I gave him the instructions and brief. Have hired him permanently. "
Sep 11, 2013
It has been great working with Addon Solutions. They've done everything needed to make sure the project was completed on time and budget and they've always found solutions to every technical issue. We plan to continue working with Addon Solutions into the foreseeable future.
Addon Solutions has been a pleasure to work with. This was our first time outsourcing web development and we were somewhat apprehensive about hiring an IT team with whom we wouldn't be meeting face to face. The potential for poor communication and a lack of oversight were major considerations, especially given that our project was complex in nature. I am happy to report that neither of our concerns were realized and, in fact, Addon Solutions have exceeded our expectations on every level. Our account manager is fantastic; he throughly considers each step of our project and he's always available to discuss project details. Our developers are dedicated, knowledgable, easy to work with and they've always found a solution for every issue. The entire team keeps in regular contact with us (primarily via skype) and they are always very accessible. We continue to work with Addon Solutions and foresee a long and lasting relationship.

Little bouncers can enjoy sky-high fun just like their older brothers and sisters on this safe, yet exciting, bouncer. The stretch-band surface offers the thrilling bounce kids love without springs and pinched fingers and features a nautical theme that sets sail for adventure. A wide-frame base keeps the bouncer stable as kids play, while a soft, padded cover protects little ones from metal parts as they climb in and out. Kids can bounce worry-free thanks to the arched enclosure that keeps them securely inside and closes off gaps to prevent potential falls. The lower enclosure provides another layer of protection as it keeps children from entering the hazardous area underneath the bouncing surface.Product Features:

text: Ultimately this is a good turn of events because based on the actions of the Jets front office, Cohen did not deserve the job. Also, thet team did not need to place more power in the hands of a coach who may only be here another 12 months. Whether it is real or perceived, Cohen would have come off as a lacky for Ryan.
