Village helps pay for Paisano's improvements
Annette and Dick Theobald were granted $10,000 from the village of Elburn on Sept. 8 to improve the outside of their building at 106 N. Main St., Elburn. The 1930s structure is the site of their business, Paisano's Pizza & Grill, as well as two apartments on the upper level.
The Theobalds recently spent $9,000 to replace the upstairs windows, and plan several thousand dollars more in other exterior enhancements. The Village Board approved the grant from its downtown facade improvement program.
The Theobalds will use the money to help pay for the the windows and to install new doors and siding, and fresh paint.
Elburn established the downtown facade improvement program a few years ago. So far, two property owners have taken advantage of it: Express Evaluations, 17 S. Main St., in 2007, and Elburn Dentist Richard Stewart this year, for his office building at 135 S. Main St.
The maximum grant amount under the village budget, which a property owner must match, is $5,000 per location or tenant. Because each of the three applicants so far are both owners and tenants of the buildings, the village awarded each a $10,000 grant.
Wayside horn system needs additional work
The new wayside horns at downtown railroad crossings will not replace train whistles in the village until Union Pacific makes signal modifications recommended by the Illinois Commerce Commission that will cost the village $22,000.
"It is additional work, not part of the original scope of the project,†Assistant Village Administrator David Morrison said Monday.
Even with the added expense, the wayside horn project still has a total cost that is lower than the $300,000 the village originally estimated, Morrison said.
"We're at $257,574,†Morrison said.
The village's Finance Committee on Monday decided to recommend that the Village Board approve the expenditure.

Philadelphia museum's golden goddess glows againJuly 10, 2014 @ 10:40 am
More Photos
See all photos
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A symbol of the Philadelphia Museum of Art is once again looking radiant in bright shiny gold after a yearlong restoration.
It's the 13-foot-tall sculpture of the Roman goddess Diana in an archer's pose, ready to fire her arrow.
The sculpture has long held a place of prominence and honor in the museum's central hall.
The work by Augustus Saint-Gaudens (gaw-DEHNS') originally crowned an early venue for New York's Madison Square Garden, where it served as a weather vane starting in 1893.
After that building was demolished in 1925, the sculpture was put in storage -- its gilded surface severely worn down by the elements. The museum acquired it in 1932.
Museum officials said Thursday that 180 square feet of gold leaf was applied over the 700-pound work.

The location is nice
Everything looks outdated, I was expecting better from The Hyatt Regency
Cosy and quiet environment
Lack of complimetary bottled water or at least a keetle for boiling water
Our room smelled old and musty. The hotel needs to be updated with the other Hyatt brands of hotels. We've always considered Hyatt to be a **** star hotel. I felt that this hotel was *** star.
Staff was pleasant. Room was cleaned promptly. Grounds were clean
Did not like paying for $20 a day resort fee that basically was just for wifi. Bed was very uncomfortable. I'm sure it was a fluke since we've stayed at Hyatts before and had great beds. But this one sucked
Very clean & inviting rooms with beautiful grounds.
The air conditioner unit was very loud all night & made it difficult to sleep.
Good location.
Sprawling place. Room a long way from reception.
I liked everything from the front office to house keeping . To me they offer excellent services .
The hotel is very comfortable and the staff was very helpful. The price for the room was a good deal. The beds are comfortable and clean. There is also parking nearby the rooms to unload/load the luggage easily.
The carpets and chair in my room need a cleaning. My socks were dirty after walking on the carpet. Also, I don't like the sliding door for the bathroom. I rather have a locking door in the bathroom, even if I'm by myself in a room.
Great customer service I love this hotel.
There nothing I didn't like.
The resort is great for a vacation on the Monterey Peninsula
I loved the setting its beautiful
Sports var was too crowded. Do you need to be a hotel guest to use amenities?
Good clean room and the restaurant was excellent.
Beware the walls are paper thin, heard the entire conversation our neighbours were having. Turned on the industrial air con and it drowned them out so got a nights sleep which was well required.
all good with room and property. Nice location away from craziness.
restaurant a bit pricey for breakfast. excellent service though.
The parking was very crowded (cars go around continuously, and few available slot). The staff was unpleasant, probably the event they had in the hotel had upset everything.
Location was great.
Fitness centre was adequate There was no indoor pool Outdoor pool was small The massage was not so special bed&breakfast type hotels around the area have similar comfort, personnel, cleanness with a marked lower price.
the room was big, the facilities were good and the staff were friendly. Overall good hotel
they charge for wifi and parking and the bed wasn't clean as it should be.
Polite, helpful staff, good room service menu, pleasant lounge area, interesting guests.
Resort fee charged each day of your stay for wifi and parking. Thought it was a bit much.
The location
I like the location.
Very disappointed in quality of room, old, musty and smelly. Public areas are very nice but as soon as you leave lobby and go to your room everything turns drab. Not worthy of the Hyatt name and expense.
Beautiful setting. Comfortable bed. Balcony opens to fresh air! "Golf cart" drivers were available to take you anywhere on the property whenever you wanted (great for our group which was spread over the property a bit).
Both the servers we had - in the breakfast lounge (late morning) and the bar (evening) seemed a bit clueless though friendly. Both did not get orders right, both left us to wait long periods between being available, and both were generally inattentive.
I'm sorry, but the bed was extremely uneven; it was a king that had too many people on one side!
No shower door or convenient counter space.
Great location, golf course in the backyard. Plenty to do with pin pong and swimming pool, but the best was the sports bar!
Great service + great location
Very noisy and not really efficient + We did book a king size room and got a dual single bed room

Tara French's first novel about the (imaginary) Dublin Murder Squad.
In 1984, two boys and a tomboy girl, fast friends, went to play in the woods near a pristine Dublin suburb. One of the boys and the girl disappeared. The other boy was found clinging to a tree with blood in his shoes, his T-shirt torn in the back very neatly in three rips, and his memory of what happened gone. This boy, Adam Robert Ryan, was sent to school in England and came back to Ireland with a posh accent and a dropped first name. He becomes a policeman, then a homicide detective, forming a close but asexual relationship with his spunky (of course) female partner Cassie Maddox.
And, then, one day, a little girl is found murdered in the same woods and Ryan and Maddox are assigned to it. Of course Ryan should recuse himself from it but he doesn't. He hopes that solving this case he can also solve his case.
French was more interested in writing a literary novel that contained a mystery than writing a murder mystery. She gives a lot more detail about the detective's life and thoughts than I wanted to know. I have stopped reading mystery writers who did that in a way that slowed their stories to literary molasses. I didn't have that problem in this case, in part because poor Ryan was interesting and charming even when he was nattering, but, more importantly, because I didn't read it, I listened to it, and Mr. Crossley set a good pace.
Besides, her literary approach paid off. Freed from the usual genre constraints - and protections - she is free to allow her poor character to fall to pieces and mess everything up, "everything" including his investigation, his partnership, his career, and his life. I found this entertaining in the way that good psychological literature (and there is such a thing, Nabokov) is entertaining. I did sneer a little at the soap opera concerning Cassie, and it did turn into soap opera, even if I was vulgar enough to let his loss of her move me.
I was more impressed by her handling of Ryan's attempts to solve the crime committed against him. The strongest part of the novel, a chapter worthy of being included in an annual collection of horror stories, has the fool deciding to spend a night in the woods by himself with only a flashlight and a sleeping bag, hoping something will come out of his memory. What pops out of his memory is a vicious nightmare that has him running from the woods and, eventually, into Cassie's bed. I have rarely read a more convincing account of what a psychological trauma feels like. Of course I was shook by this because I have suffered panic attacks, and while driving a vehicle at high speeds. As I suspected would happen from page one, Ryan solves (halfway) the contemporary murder but not his crime. He must live with what he can't remember for the rest of his life. A sad, moving ending, that.
I would like to believe that French used her literary devices in part to conceal clues in her mystery. I missed one of the killers and a large part of the solution simply because I lazily accepted Ryan as a reliable narrator and a competent detective. I am the more embarrassed by this because I could tell that he was misjudging one character completely, a teenaged minx whom I correctly suspected of being behind the murder. I have been rarely angered by an author or a character, but when Ryan tried to make light of his blunder by claiming that the girl fooled his readers as much as she fooled him, I was mildly offended.
I liked Steven Crossley's rendering of the imperfect hero, which displayed his weaknesses while maintaining sympathy, if not respect. I liked even better his rendering of the spunky female detective who is his partner. I could envision her sitting in a chair, wearing her combat books, sneering at uncooperative bureaucrats. I didn't like his performance of the psychopathic teenage girl villainess as much, but he was fine as a befuddled rape victim, harassed father, little old Irish lady, gruff boss, etc.
WARNING: This post contains spoilers about In the Woods by Tana French.
In her debut psychological thriller IN THE WOODS, author Tana French weaves an intriguing story between the past and the present time. Twenty years ago, two young children disappeared in the woods around Knocknaree, Ireland, outside Dublin, and the third child involved, friends with the other two, who was found and rescued but left traumatized and with amnesia. The case remains unsolved.
In the present day, that third child, the one who was rescued, has grown up: he's called Rob Ryan, a change from his childhood name, and he's a detective in the murder jurisdiction of the local law enforcement. He and his partner Cassie, a long-time friend, take a case set in the very woods surrounding Knocknaree where Ryan was rescued and his friends vanished so long ago.
Now, a young girl is found, brutally murdered, on the site of an archaeological dig where experts work frantically to rescue as many artifacts as possible before a government-sanctioned roadway is built straight through the area, contrary to most of the residents' preferences. The girl's family gives every indication that something is wrong, but without a thorough investigation that drags Ryan back through all the hideous memories resurfacing from his past, he and Cassie will never find out what it is, let alone where the girl was murdered, who killed her, and whether her death had anything to do with her father's stance against the new roadway.
If the back copy of the book had not told me that the work was a psychological thriller, I might have called it literary fiction. The writing is dense and rich, with lovingly detailed descriptions that painted beautiful pictures of setting and people and conversations in my head as I read. Stylistically, it's a long work, with a first-person point-of-view narrator (Ryan) and the occasional omniscient break-in (most of the descriptions aren't rendered in Ryan's voice) that French manages to make seamless.
My favorite character of the work was Cassie Maddox, Ryan's partner, for her down-to-earth practicality and sisterly determination to protect Ryan from the current case and what it might make him remember of his past. Their relationship, that of best friends or blood relatives, is both intimate and platonic, involved and easy.
Skipping between Ryan's experiences in the present day and his slowly returning memories of his childhood maintains the tension and suspense throughout the work to the very end, where --- to be entirely honest --- I really didn't suspect the person who turned out to be the girl's killer. It was a shock, and something of a horrified realization when I finally put two and two together and came up with five in my head (sort of a "So that's why things never added up ..." moment).
I was, however, disappointed in the work as a whole. By the final chapters, there is little closure or redeemable quality to the work.
For instance, while the girl's killer is discovered, circumstances make it impossible to convince a jury of the killer's guilt. Meanwhile, Ryan makes a number of really irrational decisions and winds up distancing himself from everybody, even alienating his own partners on the case, and gets himself into serious career trouble. His partnership with Cassie is entirely demolished, without hope of resurrection.
Finally, to my disgust, the unexplained disappearance of Ryan's two friends and his trauma in the woods twenty years earlier ... is never resolved. Ryan's memories slip away; no new clues emerge; there is no new evidence to point to what happened. I was left wondering why on earth that old story had even been mentioned in relation to the current present-day narrative, since neither apparently had anything to do with the other.
It seems to me that when a book begins with a prologue that lures the reader in so explicitly with a mysterious, psychologically frightening puzzle of the sort presented by Ryan's childhood story, the book is also making an implicit promise to the reader: to tie up the loose ends somehow by the end of the book, to provide an answer to the riddle or a solution to the puzzle or at least closure in some way.
As it turned out, I felt cheated, having read more than four hundred pages of close text to discover ... nothing.
I had hoped to be as impressed with IN THE WOODS as other readers seem to be --- the work was a New York Times bestseller and an Edgar Award Winner, after all --- but I remain disappointed, and I can't see any reason to pick up her second book, THE LIKENESS, though it seems to be a companion novel to this one, to find out whether there's any more closure by its conclusion.

Title: IN THE WOODS
Author: Tana French
Purchase here: http://amzn.to/1vrQOna
Disclaimer: The opinions I have expressed are my own.
Overall this novel was very good. It took me awhile to connect to the main characters of the story, but by the end I felt heartbroken for them and the situation. The ending left some fairly major questions unanswered which is very irritating. Although the main problem/case in the book is solved, I was left feeling uneasy and unsatisfied at the end.
Going to the bookstores on weekends provides me with ideas for books I want to read. Years back I saw Faithful Place, Tana French's third book in her Dublin Murder Squad series. If a title and jacket description grabs me I usually check on the author's other publications. For some reason I didn't – it was enough for me that the story took place in Ireland and it was also a mystery. Love both.
Recently I finished In The Woods, French's first book. The book starts with the story of three children who disappear in the woods one afternoon. Jamie, Adam and Peter are very tight friends and have always been so for the twelve years they have lived in the neighborhood. One day they go off playing and don't come back. Parents start a search, the garda is called in and they eventually find Adam Ryan clinging to a tree, blood in his shoes and slash marks across his back. Jamie and Peter were never found. Detectives talk to Adam but he was so traumatized by what happened that he can't recall anything.
Fast forward 22 years and we are introduced to Rob Ryan, a detective with the Dublin Murder Squad. Rob is actually Adam Robert Ryan, the boy who was terrorized in the woods many years ago. He goes by his middle name so there is no association of the case where his friends went missing many years ago. He and his partner Cassie Maddox are assigned to investigate the murder of a twelve year old Katy Devlin. Katy's body is found near the same woods where Rob's friends had disappeared. Katy is discovered during an archaeological dig. Could this be related to the previous crime?
Rob and Cassie continue on with the investigation even though they know Rob should come clean with the supervisors about his true identity. It's a gritty story, a good mystery. Rob is obviously scarred by his childhood experience. He's overall a likeable character but has some serious flaws when dealing with relationships, particularly those with women.
*Possible Spoiler*
I had read some reviews and noted there are a few people who were very disappointed that the first mystery remains unsolved. I was rather hoping you would have some closure on what happened to Rob/Adam and his friends Jamie and Peter. It's still my hope that French will one day come back to Rob Ryan's story and give us some closure on the disappearing kids. I will tell you the murder of Katy Devlin is solved despite some real groaners of frustration near the end. Overall I loved this book and as I have already read book 3 in this series, I guess I will tackle book 2 next.
Although she overburdens the traditional police-procedural form with the weight of romance, psychological suspense, social history and mythic legend, she sets a vivid scene for her complex characters, who seem entirely capable of doing the unexpected. Drawn by the grim nature of her plot and the lyrical ferocity of her writing, even smart people who should know better will be able to lose themselves in these dark woods.

As dusk approaches a small Dublin suburb in the summer of 1984, mothers begin to call their children home. But on this warm evening, three children do not return from the dark and silent woods. When the police arrive, they find only one of the children gripping a tree trunk in terror, wearing blood-filled sneakers, and unable to recall a single detail of the previous hours.
Twenty years later, the found boy, Rob Ryan, is a detective on the Dublin Murder Squad and keeps his past a secret. But when a twelve-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddox—his partner and closest friend—find themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery. Now, with only snippets of long-buried memories to guide him, Ryan has the chance to uncover both the mystery of the case before him and that of his own shadowy past.
Richly atmospheric, stunning in its complexity, and utterly convincing and surprising to the end, In the Woods is sure to enthrall fans of Mystic River and The Lovely Bones. And look for French's new mystery, Broken Harbor, for more of the Dublin Murder Squad.
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:25:58 -0400)
Detective Rob Ryan and his partner, Cassie Maddox, investigate the murder of a 12-year-old girl near a Dublin suburb. The case resonates with similarities to a murder committed twenty years before that involved two children and the young Ryan.

MONROE—An under-practiced rotation and possibly some jitters forced Adams Central to drop their first game against Churubusco at the Hangar on Tuesday night in their volleyball opener.
It proved to be only a momentary scare for the Lady Jets, however, as they would go on to win 75 of the final 111 points in the match to dominate the Eagles in four sets 25-19, 17-25, 8-25, 11-25.
HARTFORD CITY—South Adams began their young volleyball season on Monday night when they traveled to Blackford to meet up with the Bruins.
Despite a reserve win, the varsity was a three-set victim to Blackford 25-22, 25-19, 25-14.
"It was a tough loss because we did not come out as strong as I would have liked to see," admitted SA coach Amie Sprunger. "We are holding our heads up high and looking forward to another match this week against Canterbury on Thursday."

General Motors is working to sell off brands after wrapping itself in bankruptcy protection.
The Detroit automaker says it has worked up a tentative deal to sell off its Hummer brand, although it hasn't said who the buyer is or what price was set. The automaker says the deal would likely save more than 3,000 jobs.
GM also says it has 16 buyers interested in Saturn and three more eyeing Saab.
The automaker is hoping to race through bankruptcy and emerge a trimmed down, more maneuverable company. One analyst says before filing for Chapter 11, GM had a lot of its "ducks in a row" because of the terms of the $20 billion it has gotten in government financing.
During today's hearing, GM Attorney Harvey Miller stressed the importance of a swift bankruptcy process, noting the company only has about $2 billion in cash left.
A bankruptcy judge has given it immediate access to $15 billion in government financing to get through the next few weeks. He's also given interim approval for use of a total of $33.3 billion in financing.

With the decreasing cost of storing data and increasing storage capacity with a same small device foot print have been key enablers of this revolution. While the current storage need are being met the storage technologies must continue in order to keep pace with a rapidly increasing demand. However both magnetic and conventional optical data storage technologies, where individual bits are stored as distinct magnetic or optical changes in the surface of recording medium, are approaching physical limits beyond which individual bits are too small or too difficult to store. Storing information through the volume of the medium not on its surface offers an intriguing high capacity alternative. Holographic data storage is a volumetric approach, which has made recent progress towards practicality with the appearance of lower cost enabling technologies. Hence the holographic memory has become a great white whale of technology research. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com CONCEPT OF HOLOGRAPHIC MEMORY Holography is a technique which allows recording and playback of 3- dimensional image. The is called a hologram unlike other 3-dimenssional "picture" hologram provide hologram provide what is called "parallax". Parallax allows the viewer to move back and forth up and down and see different perspective – as if the object were actually there. In Holography, the aim is to record complete wave field (both amplitude and phase) as it is intercepted by recording medium the record in plane may not even be an image plane. The scattered or reflected light by object is intercepted by the recording medium and recorded completely in spite of the fact that the detector is insensitive to the phase difference among the various part of the optical field In holography, interference between the object wave and reference wave is formed and recorded on a holographic material. The record known as hologram (whole record) captures the complete wave which can be viewed at the later time by illuminating the hologram with an appropriate light beam. To this day holography continues to provide the most accurate depiction of 3-D image in the world. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com HISTORICAL ROOTS Dr. Dennis Gabor is known as the father of holography. In year 1947, Dr. Gobor a Hungerian Physicist given the idea of holography at the imperial college of London in1971 Dr. Gabor received a noble prize in physics for holography. His theory was originally meant to increase the resolving power of electronic microscvope and towards that he used light of beam instead of electronic beam and this resulted in the first hologram ever made. In 1960s, two engineers from the University of Michigon, Emmitt Lerth and Juris Upatlipks, developed a new device that produce a 3-D image of an object Polaroid scientist Peter J. Vann Heerdern proposed the idea of holographic storage in the early 1960s and decade later scientist at RCA laboratories demonstrated the holographic storage technology by recording 500 holograms in an iron doped lithium niobate crystal and 550 holograms of high resolution images in a light sensitive polymer material However, the development of holographic data storage was put on holed for several years because of the absence of cheap parts of the advancement in magnetic and semiconductor memories. In recent years IBM and lucent Bell labs are actively involve\d in creating a successful holographic storage medium as a result of which it has become www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com possible to store 1000 GB of data in a small cube. WHAT IS HOLOGRAM ? The word Hologram is derived from Greek word "Holos" meaning "Whole" and "GRAM" meaning "Message". Older English dictionaries define a hologram as a document (such as a last will and testament) hand written by the person whose signature is attached. A hologram is often described as a 3-D picture. While a photograph has an actual physical image, a hologram contains information about size, shape, brightness and contrast of object being recorded .This information is stored in a very microscopic and complex pattern of interference. The interference pattern is made possible by the properties of light generated by a LASER. In order to record the whole pattern, the light used must be highly directional and must be one of one color. Such light is called coherent. Because the light from a LASER is one color and leaves the LASER with one wave in perfect one step with all others, it is perfect for making hologram. When we shine a light on the hologram the information that is stored as an interference pattern takes the incoming light and re-creates the original optical wave front that was reflected off the object hence the eyes and brain now perceives the object as being in front of us once again. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com HOLOGRAPHIC MEMORY Holographic Memory is a simple optical imaging technique that stores digital information throughout the depth of storage medium as opposed to surface storage through conventional means .This enables massive increase in storage capacities over existing technologies and at the same time reduces the cost of storing massive amount of data in a randomly accessible digital format. Most holographic storage systems contain some components basic to the setup . These are :- i. Laser Beam ii. Beam Splitters to Split the Laser Beam iii. Mirrors to direct the Laser Beam iv. A liquid Crystal Display Panel v. Lenses to Focus The Laser Beam vi. Recording Material vii. CCD Cameras www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com TECHNIQUE OF STORING DATA ON A HOLOGRAPHIC MATERIAL To record on the hologram, a page composer converts the data in the form of electric signals to optical signal the controller generate the address to access the desired page. This results in the exposure of a small area of the recording medium through an aperture. The optical output signal is directed to the exposed area by the deflector. When the Blue-Argon laser is focused, a beam splitter splits it into two, a reference beam and a signal beam. The signal beam passes through spatial light modulators (SLM) where digital information organized in a page like format of ones and zeros, is modulated onto the signal beam as a two-dimensional pattern of brightness and darkness. This signal beam is then purified using different crystals. when the signal beam and reference beam meats the interference pattern created stores the data that is carried by the signal beam onto the surface of the holographic material as a hologram. Different data pages are recorded over the surface depending on the angle at which the reference beam meet the signal beam a holographic data storage system is fundamentally page oriented with each block of data defined by the no. of data bits that can be spatially impressed onto the object the total storage capacity of the system is www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com then equal to the product of the paper size (in bits) and the no. of pages that can be recorded. Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) Spatial light modulator is used for creating binary information out of laser light. The SLM is a 2-D plane, consisting of pixels, which can be turned on and off to create 1"s and 0"s. An illustration of this is a window and a window shade. It is possible to pull the shade down over window to block incoming sunlight. If sunlight is desired again, the shade can be raised. A spatial light modulator contains a two dimensional array of "windows" which are only microns wide. These windows block some parts of the incoming laser light and let other parts go through. The resulting cross section of the laser beam is a two dimensional array of binary data, exactly the same as what was represented in SLM. After the laser beam is manipulated, it is sent into hologram to be recorded. This data is written into the hologram as page form. It is called this due to its representation in Two–dimensional plane, or page of data. Holographic memory reads data in the form of pages instead. For example, if a stream 0f 32 bit is sent to a processing unit by a conventional read head, a holographic memory system would in turn send 32*32 bits, or 1024 bits due to its added dimension this provides very fast access times in volumes for greater than serial access www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com methods. The volume could be one Megabit per page using a SLM resolution of 1024*1024 bits at 15-20 microns per pixel. Multiplexing Once one can store a page of bits in a hologram, an interface to a computer can be made. The problem arises, however, that storing only one page of bits is not beneficial. Fortunately, the properties of hologram provide a unique solution to this dilemma. Unlike magnetic storage mechanisms which store data on their surface, holographic memories store information throughout their whole volume. After a page of data is recorded in a hologram, a small modification to the source beam before it reenters the hologram will record another page of data in the same volume. This method of storing multiple pages of data in the hologram is called multiplexing. The thicker the volume becomes, the smaller the modifications to the source beam can be. Angular multiplexing When a reference beam recreates the source beam, it needs to be at the same angle it was during recording. A very small alteration in this angle will make the regenerated source beam disappear. Harnessing this property, angular multiplexing changes the angle of source beam by very minuscule amount after www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com each page of data is recorded. Depeding on the sensitivity of recording material, thousands of pages of data can be stored in the same hologram, at the same point of laser beam entry. Staying away from conventional data access system which move mechanical matter to obtain data, the angle of entry of source beam can be deflected by high frequency sound waves in solids. The elimination of mechanical access methods reduces access time from milliseconds to microseconds. Wavelength multiplexing Used mainly in conjunction with other multiplexing methods, wavelength multiplexing alters the swavelength of source and reference beams between recordings. Sending beams to the same point of origin in the recording medium at different wavelengths allows multiple pages of data to be recorded. Due to the small tuning range of lasers, however, this form of multiplexing is limited on its own. Spatial multiplexing Spatial multiplexing is the method of changing the point of entry of source and reference beams into the recording medium. This forms tends to break away from the non mechanical paradigm because either the medium or recording beams must be physically moved. like wavelength multiplexing, this is combined with other forms of multiplexing to maximize the amount of data stored in the www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com holographic volume. To commonly used forms of spatial multiplexing are peristrophic multiplexing and shift multiplexing. Technique of retrieving data from holographic material To retrieve the data, the reference beam is focused on hologram at a particular Angle, this will retrieve the modulated data page stored at the same angle of interference to read the page, reference beam is passed through a detector and then through a CCD camera which will project the data on the display panel. The laser( reference beam) is focused on the appropriate page according to the address generated. A photo detector array on the other side of hologram record the image of that sub hologram. When the stored interference pattern is illuminated with either of the two original beams, it diffracts the light so as to reconstruct the other beam used to produce the pattern originally. Thus, illuminating the material with the reference beam recreate the object beam, with its imprinted page of data. It is then a relatively simple matter to detect the data pattern with a solid state camera chips. The data from the chip are interpreted and forwarded to the computer as stream of digital information. The page can be separated either by varying the angle between the object and the reference beam or by changing the laser wavelength. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com Error correction It is inevitable that storing massive amount of data in a small volume will be error proned. Factors exists in both the recording and retrieval of information wchich will be covered in the following subsections, respectively. In order for holographic memory systems to be practical in next generation computer systems, a reliable form of error control needs to be created. Recording errors When data is recorded in a holographic medium , certain factors can lead to erroneously recorded data. One major factor is the electronic inoisei enerated by laser beams. When a laser beam is split up (for ex., through a SLM), the generated light bleeds into place where light was need to be blocked out. Areas where zero light is desired might have minuscule amounts of laser light present which mutates its bits representation. For ex. , if too much get recorded in the zero area representing a binary 0, and erroneous change to a binary 1 might occur. Changes in both the quality of laser beam and recording material are being researched, but these improvements must take into consideration the cost effectiveness of a holographic memory system. These limiatation to current laser beam and photosensitive technology are some of the main factors for the delay www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com of practucak holographic memory system. Page label parity bits Once error~free data is recorded into a hologram, methods which reads data back out of it need to be error freee as well. Data in page format requires a new way to provide error control. Current error control methods concentrate on a stream of bits. Because page data is in the form of two dimensional array, error correction needs to take into account the extra dimention of bits. When a page of data is written to the holographic media, the page is separated into smaller two dimensional arrays. These subsections are appended with an additional row and column of bits. The added bits calculate the parity of each row and column of data. An odd number of bits in a row or column create a parity bit of 1 and an even no. of bit create a 0. a parity bit where a row and column meet is also created which is called an overall parity bit. The subsection are rejoined and sent to the holographic medium for recording. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com Recording material The recording material over which a holographic pattern is stored can be made of either organic or inorganic material. The most common inorganic material are ones that exhibit photorefractivity such as lithium niobate(LiNBO3). Lithium niobate has been around for many decades can be fabricated in a large crystal of high optical quality. Holographic recording in organic photo polymer system has been around for a decade and most of the early attention was directed towards fabrication of holographic optical elements and scanners. Such data recorded couldn"t be erased. This was particularly suited for "Write once run many times" applications. The organic materials currently suffer from two major drawbacks as they cannot be fabricated to a thickness greater than 100 microns enhance the no. of holograms that can be multiplexed is very much reduced. They also undergo some degree of shrinkage with exposure, which complicates retrieval of multiplexed hologram and leads to a situation of cross talk. However, research continues because of their inherent advantages over www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com grown and polished inorganic crystals. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION i. Latency : 40 m seconds ii. Potential Transfer Rate : 1 Gigabit per second iii. Minimum Sector Size : 128 KB iv. Potential capacity : 1 Terabit( 128 GB in a 1 Cubic centimeter Crystal) v. Power : 1 Watt per Square mm of hologram size www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com ADVANTAGE 1) the very first advantage of holographic memory system is that an entire page of data can be retrieved quickly and at one time. 2) It provides the very high storage density amount in the order of terabytes and be stored in small cubic devices. 3) High data transfer rates can be achieved with a perfect holographic setup with data transfer rate b/w 1-10 GB per second. Since this memory is not serially or sequentially operated like most memory that"s why a page of data can be read out in parallel. LIMITATIONS 1) In any holographic data storage system, the angle at which the second reference beam is focused on the crystal to a page of data is the crucial component. It must match the original reference beam exactly without deviation. A difference of even a thousandth of a millimeter will result in failure to retrieve that page of data. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com 2) Also, if too many pages are stored in one crystal, the strength of each hologram gets diminished. 3) If there are too many holograms stored on a crystal and a reference crystal used to retrieve a hologram is not focused at the precise angle, it will pick up a lot of back ground from the other holograms stored around it. OBSTACLES IN THE HOLOGRAPHIC STORAGE DEVELOPMENT 2) The absence of a suitable holographic material which should have high signal to noise ratio. 3) Optical technology has also been experiencing a setback because of the heavy competition from semiconductor and magnetic technologies. 4) Holographic system requires lens system for imaging the signal from the 5) SLM to the detector array or for steering the angle of the reference beam. 6) This optics cause holographic memories to be both bulky and expensive. 7) The laser must have sufficient power at the required wavelength and should be small enough to fit into a reasonable sized system. The reasonable and favorite choice that satisfies both requirements along with size and cost is under development. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com OTHER FIELDS OF APPLICATION OF HOLOGRAMS Holograms have many uses in arts science and technology. 1) Holograms are used in product packaging. 2) Several magazines have featured holograms in their covers. 3) Holograms are found on credit cards, drivers license and clothing to help stop counterfeiting. 4) Holograms ate used in many airplanes, both civilian and military. These holograms provide the pilot with crucial information while looking through the cockpits window. It is called a heads up display. Heads up display ate now available in certain automobiles as well. 5) Engineers used holography to test for fractures and also for quality control during manufacturing. It is called holographic non destructing testing. 6) Artist use holography for artistic expression. Many artist feel that exploring the three dimensional space and pure light that holography offers them to convey images and messages that were never before possible. 7) It is possible to take flat medical images such that as CAT scan and have the final image as 3-D hologram. www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com www.1000projects.com www.fullinterview.com www.chetanasprojects.com 8) Computer generated holograms allows engineers and designers to virtually see their creation like never before. CONCLUSION The future of holographic memory is very promising. The holographic storage provide high data density. It can easily store 1000GB of data in a small cubic centimeter crystal reducing the cost on the other hand. It may offer high data transfer rate. But even then the holographic way of storing data is still at the toddler stage and it may take another couple of years for this technique to hit desktop with a real life data storage solution. However this technology itself is dazzling and aims to light up the desktop experience. "Truly the best things in life come small !!!!

Future of Nursing Initiative
MONDAY, Nov. 28 (HealthDay News) -- A chronic disease management approach is associated with increased short- and long-term abstinence from smoking; and nicotine replacement therapy (NT) during a practice quit attempt (PQA) correlates with increased incidence of any quit attempt, according to two studies published in the Nov. 28 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.
Anne M. Joseph, M.D., M.P.H., from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and colleagues compared a telephone-based chronic disease management approach (one-year, longitudinal care [LC]) with an evidence-based treatment approach (eight weeks, usual care [UC]) for treatment of tobacco dependence. At 18 months, 30.2 and 23.5 percent of LC and UC participants, respectively, reported six months of abstinence (unadjusted P = 0.13). Prolonged abstinence at 18 months was predicted by LC treatment; quit attempts in the previous year; baseline cigarettes/day; and smoking within 14 to 21 days of quitting, on multivariable analysis. For those who did not quit, LC resulted in significantly reduced smoking at 12 months versus UC.
Matthew J. Carpenter, Ph.D., from the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, and colleagues investigated whether NT within the context of a PAQ results in higher incidence of subsequent attempts to permanently quit smoking than a PQA alone, in 849 individuals currently unmotivated to quit. PQA plus NT was associated with significantly elevated incidence of quit attempts and 24-hour quit attempts than PQA intervention alone. NT had marginally higher floating abstinence, but six-month point prevalence abstinence rates were not different between the groups.
"Nicotine therapy sampling during a PQA represents a novel strategy to motivate smokers to make a quit attempt," Carpenter and colleagues write.
One author of the Joseph study disclosed financial ties to Nabi Biopharmaceuticals. One author of the Carpenter study disclosed financial ties to profit organizations that develop, sell, or promote smoking cessation products. GlaxoSmithKline provided discounted nicotine lozenges for the Carpenter study.
