Shabnam Hashmi quits govt panels alleging Congress 'connivance' to ensure Narendra Modi victory in Gujarat
Top Stories
Social activist Shabnam Hashmi today quit five government panels, including Central Advisory Board of Education (CABE), alleging Congress "connivance" to ensure Narendra Modi's victory in Gujarat Assembly elections but did not say how.
Hashmi, the founder member of NGO Anhad, resigned from membership of Maulana Azad Education Foundation, National Monitoring Committee for Minority Education (NMCME), National Literacy Mission Council (NLM) and Assessment and Monitoring Authority of Planning Commission besides CABE.
She said she was resigning from all government committees as a protest against the "betrayal" of the aspirations of the marginalised people of Gujarat to throw out the Modi regime.
"There was a strong wave against Modi. The anti-Modi wave was not reflected in the electoral verdict. No way Modi could have won. There was subversion and manipulation. Some part of it was done by the party leading the UPA," she told PTI, referring to Congress.
She, however, did not explain how Congress had helped in Modi's victory, saying she does not "know how it happened". She said an independent investigation should be held into the Gujarat election verdict to especially look at the presence of foreign diplomats and journalists in the state just before the polls on December 13 and 17.
In a statement, she said she felt "deeply disturbed at the betrayal" of the hard work and faith of thousands of activists who worked in Gujarat against the regime of Modi and also crores of Gujaratis who voted against him in the Assembly election.
"There was a strong anti-Modi wave but suddenly everything changed between December 15 evening and 17th morning. To the best of my understanding and experience of working as a social-political activist for 30 years, the overnight reversal and the following victory of the regime was not possible without the connivance of the political party that leads the UPA," she alleged.

Heaven is so Real Interview by Choo Thomas - Inspirational Videos
1604 views
Do you believe heaven really exists? Choo Thomas tells a remarkable story of her encounters with Jesus Christ, where she visited heaven many times and saw hell twice. Her book, "Heaven is so Real" is more than just a book - it is Christs loving message to a generation that has largely forgotten, misunderstood or is indifferent about Him. This book will touch your heart and soul and will challenge you to live a life of obedience and purity like you have never done before. On January 19, 1996, I woke up at 3:00 in the morning. My body was shaking...I turned my head on the pillow to look in the direction of the sound, and there, all aglow, was a figure dressed in white garments. IT WAS THE LORD...How could this be happening to me? I wondered...as I began to tremble...and to weep tears of love and joy. My daughter...I am your Lord, and I want to talk to you. I am going to visit you many times before this work is done. The impact of His voice, His words, His message hit me with a supernatural force... Not once not twice but ten times that month, the Lord Jesus appeared by her bedside and spoke to her. Then the journey began.... DivineRevelations.info

In an attempt to keep that fresh, new game smell on Uncharted 2, developer Naughty Dog will be implementing some "experimental" changes to the game's online multiplayer modes this weekend. First, a new playlist comprised solely of Plunder matches will be introduced into the mix -- a filter that the community has been requesting since the game first launched. Second, for this weekend only, all players' health will be reduced to 65 percent. It's a side effect from the game's "Crushing" difficulty setting, which the developer thinks could ramp up the speed and intensity of multiplayer firefights.
Naughty Dog is asking for feedback on these temporary changes, so if you're not a fan (or, alternatively, if you're a superfan) of the new playlist or diminished health capacity, drop a comment on the studio's blog.

Tyra Banks - Tyra Banks Launches New Fashion Website
Tyra Banks has launched her new fashion website 'TypeF.com'.
Tyra Banks, the American model and television personality, has launched her new fashion and beauty website, reports CBS News.It was reported earlier this week that the 37-year-old has been attending Harvard Business School since last year and she is also writing her debut novel. When discussing the reasons for starting up the website, Banks told 'Early Show' host Chris Wragge, "One thing school has taught me is to stick with your core competent competency. And I know fashion and beauty". When pushed on the meaning behind the name 'Type F', the model said, "It means whatever you want to mean. For me it means type fierce. It's a place; to me, it's a revolutionary destination where women can come and get personalized information for them based on their specific body types". Banks reportedly pays $31,000 a year to study on Harvard's prestigious 'Management Program' and 'TypeF.com' represents her first venture since enrolling.
Tyra Banks is currently midway through hosting the 15th season of 'America's Next Top Model' and her debut novel 'Modelland' will hit shelves in September 2011. 'TypeF.com' offers beauty tips, fashion advice and gives users the chance to upload their own 'look'.

MAN Diesel & Turbo recently signed a contract for the supply of 8L32/44CR B.2 engines as part of a complete propulsion package to power a seismic vessel ordered by GC Rieber Shipping of Norway. The contract contains an option for an extra vessel. Four of the engines, along with two two-speed Flender Twin-In/Single-Out reduction gears and MAN Alpha Twin Screw CP propellers in AHT nozzles, will power the vessel. The seismic vessel is graded as Ice Class 1A*, which provides a good basis for operating in Arctic areas. The vessel design is an ST 324 XT from Skipsteknisk of Aalesund, Norway whose hull will be constructed in Poland with outfitting subsequently carried out at the Myklebust shipyard north of Aalesund. The propulsion plant is scheduled for delivery by May 2014 with vessel delivery following in March 2015. Expertise in ice has long been a GC Rieber Shipping trademark with an emphasis on delivering customer solutions for demanding operations in sensitive environments where quality, safety and environmental concerns are crucial. These tough requirements also apply to the propulsion plant and the shipyard's previous, positive experience with MAN Diesel & Turbo engines was decisive in finalizing the propulsion package. Propulsion package The four-stroke 8L32/44CR B.2 common-rail engines with a high-powered 600 kW/cylinder will be constructed and tested in Augsburg, Germany – headquarters of MAN Diesel & Turbo. The common-rail B.2 engine is one of the most advanced in the company's product portfolio, has a second-to-none SFOC, and has gained a solid foothold in the offshore business. The reduction gears from Siemens-Flender are specially designed such that – at constant engine speed (750 rpm) – two different propeller speeds can be selected (155 rpm or 120 rpm), allowing the propellers to have a much wider silent-operation window. The TI/SO gears are also provided with 2 × 2,600 kWe PTOs each. The MAN Alpha VBS1100 Mk5 CP propellers utilise, courtesy of up to six operating modes, the flexible propeller-output speed to operate at the optimum efficiency in all modes. Suppressing cavitation on the propellers is an important design criterion since, especially on the pressure side, the noise deriving from cavitation can disturb seismic sonar readings. The ø4200 CP propellers operate in Alpha High Thrust (AHT) nozzles, which further help to increase propeller performance by offering higher thrust at low vessel speed, and reduce cavitation noise through selection of the optimum nozzle L/D ratio. The Alphatronic 2000 remote-control system facilitates the most favorable propulsion-plant control in all operating modes. A special feature of the new seismic vessel is an 'ice operation mode' since the DNV Ice 1A* only applies when one engine is engaged to each propeller shaft. The complete propulsion plant at 100% MCR is classed as fully MCR certified by DNV for operation in areas with no ice. Finally, as part of the overall deal, MAN Diesel & Turbo will provide two years of online service and PrimeServLab (stringent quality control for engine operating fluids) on board in order to obtain valuable performance data for seismic high-load operation.

Tuesday, 23 Oct 2012 08:50 PM
With just two weeks before the Nov. 6 election, Democrat Richard Carmona is in a statistical dead heat with six-term Republican congressman Jeff Flake, the early favorite.
Carmona has been boosted in part by a drive to register thousands of Hispanics riled by the border state's crackdown on illegal immigration. But it is economic issues such as job creation and deficit reduction, not immigration, that are dominating the discourse in the race.
"I see the job as a senator as being the primary advocate for ... business interests in my community," Carmona said in a in a debate with Flake at the Gila River Indian Community south of Phoenix last week.
Arizona has not elected a Democratic senator since Dennis DeConcini won a third and final term in 1988. Flake and Carmona are battling for the Senate seat vacated by Republican Jon Kyl.
A win for Carmona would boost Democrats, who hope to hold onto a slim 51-47 advantage over Republicans in the U.S. Senate.
Victory for either candidate will depend on independent voters, who make up about a third of the state's electorate and tend to be moderate. That is one reason analysts say neither candidate is campaigning hard on the state's divisive crackdown on illegal immigrants.
Arizonans are "very hawkish on the border issues , but they're pretty darn moderate in terms of how to solve this problem about (illegal immigrants) who have been here a long time ... and the candidates know that," said Bruce Merrill, a political analyst and professor emeritus at Arizona State University.
Carmona's life story is part of his campaign's appeal. He was raised in poverty in New York City by Puerto Rican parents who struggled with alcoholism and substance abuse.
Carmona dropped out of high school and enlisted in the Army, where he became a decorated Special Forces combat medic in the Vietnam War. He returned to school, eventually earning his medical degree and later being named surgeon general by Republican President George W. Bush.
He is campaigning on a platform of job creation and balancing the federal budget, and pledges to move beyond partisanship to break the deadlock in Washington if elected.
Flake, 49, a fifth-generation Arizonan, seeks to galvanize the party's conservative base with his opposition to abortion and a record of voting to cut taxes and the size of government. He is also pledging to tackle the U.S. budget deficit.
"We've got to change direction in this country, we can't continue (to spend) our kids' inheritance," he told voters at the debate.
As they head toward Election Day, Carmona has a cash advantage and is polling at least even with Flake after starting out behind. He also has raised $2.2 million in the third quarter, compared to Flake's $1.3 million.
A Behavior Research Center poll this month had Carmona leading Flake 44 percent to 40 percent among likely voters, within the 4.4 percentage-point margin of error. A Public Policy Polling survey had the Democrat ahead 45 percent to 43 percent, noting he was winning over independents and had crossover Republican support. The margin of error was four percentage points.
That contrasts with two polls last month, by HighGround and Rasmussen Reports, that had Flake ahead by three to six points.
Carmona, 62, is being aided by activists who are using anger at the state's immigration crackdown and sweeps by controversial Phoenix-area Sheriff Joe Arpaio to register thousands of Latino voters in door-to-door campaigns, state Democrats say.
The state Democratic Party said activists have registered about 15,000 voters - some new, others re-registered - in recent months. They were not able to say how many were Hispanic.
Both candidates support strong border enforcement. But Carmona also backs a comprehensive immigration overhaul and the Dream Act, legislation that would allow some children of illegal immigrants a chance to stay in the United States legally.
Part of Flake's challenge is with moderate Republicans and independents alienated by his rightward tilt in the primary to defeat a rival who was popular with conservative Tea Party activists, analysts say.
"Arizona is indicative of some of the problems Republicans are having nationally when they nominate candidates who are notably more conservative than the median voter in the state," said Mark P. Jones, a political scientist at Rice University.
"It can potentially cause problems in the general election," he added.
Flake acknowledged he has a fight on his hands, but said he felt confident his message would appeal across the spectrum.
"Economic opportunity, a change in direction from where we're going now, independents certainly gravitate toward that as well as a lot of Democrats ... because they understand that this administration ... is really stifling job creation," he said.

Additional opportunities available from the National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS)
USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service is offering a free conservation plan on private land in Washington State through the Voluntary Natural Resources Conservation Plan sign-up.
A conservation plan is a resource management system-level plan for all land-use and natural resource concerns – including soil, water, air, plants, animals, humans and energy – associated with a farm, ranch, forest, shellfish, or aquaculture operation. In order to qualify for the sign-up, all contiguous tracts must be included in the plan and all the land must be within Washington State.
Benefits of a conservation plan include identification of immediate or potential resource problems that could harm production. Conservation plans also help landowners and operators comply with environmental regulations and may help landowners and operators access various USDA and other voluntary conservation programs.
The sign-up will be open from January 6 through March 20, 2015. Producers can apply at their local NRCS field offices (see below). For more information, visit the NRCS Washington website at: http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/main/wa/technical/cp/ .

J.S. Bach, "Chaconne BWV 1004"
Transcription and Fingering: Renato Bellucci
...And the Oscar to the "All-time Greatest composer" goes to: Johan Sebastian Bach! Bach is the real reason I decided to remain an interpreter and not feel the urge to become a composer. I had to be at least partly responsible to keep his work alive. In Bach's work we find the highest and most precious virtues of a human being: Faith, work, love and passion illuminated by the greatest genius who knew exactly where he was coming from and where he wanted to go: Heaven. I was recently hearing a lecture and I came to find out that Bach music is responsible for the conversion of many agnostics and atheists. In the words of one of these converts: "When you discover Bach's St. Matthew's Passion you come to the conclusion that there must be a God". The most lovable thing about the man is that if an Oscar had really been handed out to him he would have certainly replaced the plaque's inscription with one saying D.O.G.(Deus Omnis Gloria or S.D.G. Soli Deo Gloria that crowned all his work -To God Alone the Glory-). It took 49 years and the effort of 12 countries and 23 royal patrons to gather and publish the complete corpus of Bach's surviving works.
"Those of us who admire Bach and his work the most find in his work perfect unity and balance of emotional subtlety and depth with an
awesome, unrivaled depth of technical means and architecture by which
they are achieved. While Bach's work can and should be admired for its
unmatched beauty and emotional power alone, careful study reveals a use
of complex, formal, technical means and structures from which Bach
brings forth that height of human feelings in a way that reveals the
workings of one of the supreme intellects of all time".
I personally feel blessed for belonging to the same profession as J.S.Bach. My greatest admiration for the man, was triggered by a small pocket book maestro Abel Carlevaro landed to me. It was to become the only book I read in one day. It was Bach's life seen through his wife's diary. It was her diary actually. That moment when you were struck by the greatness of a normal life mixed with the greatest musical genius humanity had ever known or would ever know since.. unforgettable. The greatness of a normal life, its eternal meaning.
The daily anecdotes told by Anna Magdalena simply make you a part of the man's life. The man was... A man! He was happy, at times sad, even desperate. He had a Faith, a big passion for music. He got angry and at times he was afraid...he smoked the pipe and actually wrote poems to it. Anna survived Johannes 10 years and died in a poorhouse. She never regretted her life with him. Johannes never fancied to be the greatest...he was simply one more Bach to become a musician (7 generations of Bach's had already included 50 cantors, organists and town musicians, so many Bachs had been musicians that the name was synonymous with musician).

To do my job as well as I knew how. This is what I had to do in order to become a Saint!
Brahms' music is beautiful but I think that his greatest life achievement was to revive Bach' figure for all the future generations. He was quoted saying "The two greatest events of my lifetime are the founding of the German Empire and the completion of the Bach Gesellschaft's publications". We know what happened to the first, but the second is definitely the one Empire where the sun never sets.
Renato Bellucci plays Chaconne JS Bach "Chaconne" BWV 1004 Part 1/4
Renato Bellucci plays part 1 of Bach Chaconne in D Minor
The Well Tempered Clavier works also belong to this period along with the Inventions. The Chaconne was the most daring work from this period and probably one of humanity's highest musical accomplishments. The Chaconne is a special type of continuous Theme and Variations where a somewhat short subject (normally 4 measures) is relentlessly repeated and varied. The total sixty variations are built on a descending ground bass: D, C#, Bb, A. It is a slow dance in simple triple meter (Bach's compositions were all in triple time, as a reminder of his love for The Holy Trinity), often in a minor key. It uses the rhythm of a Saraband (an antique Spanish dance) .
All of Bach´s Divine genius and musical mastery are found in the Chaconne and "no other composer has ever composed such a gigantic masterpiece". It is only logic to venture in saying that no other composer will ever equal it. "It is a triumph of spirit over matter" P. Spitta, Bach scholar. The theme occurs at the very beginning in the first four measures, and recurs ( in the form of a subject) every four measures throughout the composition. Due to the harmonic rhythm, the tempo must be fairly slow. "Segovia's transcription and performance is superb, with the guitar allowing for a deep bass, one octave lower than written, so that the music is enhanced in its majesty". The performer needs to be aware of the transformations of the basic four-note subject (D, C#, Bb, A). Not only does the subject repeat almost relentlessly, but Bach restated and transformed it in many versions, in sixteenth and eighth notes, and the performer should be aware that these segments divide the music into basic statements. This approach also helps the performer learn the piece since it allows for many "micro-pieces" to be played one after the other.
Abel Carlevaro's"Masterclass" series on the Chaconne is the best arrangement and fingering you can get your hands on. It is published by Chantarelle and I had the privilege of sharing with the great Uruguayan maestro several fingering possibilities. The piece can adapt to any player and the music allows for many fingering possibilities. Remember that Carlevaro's approach to fingering, as opposed to Segovia's, was open for "discussion" and the Master would always say: "whatever works best for you". "The Chaconne clearly represents that humans have an incredible capacity for elaboration and variation. Anyone who can speak on a topic for fifteen minutes without running out of ideas and without repeating himself will understand what an epic human landmark the Chaconne in Dm is. Its "topic", is the D, C#, Bb, A chord progression."Bach Creates upon this for nearly fifteen minutes without repeating himself and without loosing our attention!
The Chaconne is a technical piece illustrating not only the ingenuity and perfection of tools (violin/piano/guitar/orchestra), but the capacity of the human body to use them in skillful ways. This work is the most difficult piece of music of all time and on any instrument. It requires incredible musicianship as well as technical mastery of the instrument. The Chaconne is a feelingful work that explores the full range of human emotions. It is as if, in spite of economical means and technical wizardry, Bach still gets under our skins and into our hearts. "The Chaconne is the most wonderful, unfathomable pieces of music. On one stave, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and most powerful feelings. "If I imagined that I could have created, even conceived the piece, I am quite certain that the excess of excitement and earth shattering experience would have driven me out of my mind." Johannes Brahms. This gigantic piece is arguably the greatest set of variations for any instrument ever written.
The Chaconne has been transcribed on to virtually every instrument capable of retaining its rich harmony and stands on its own as a Spanish dance in slow triple time. Much of the attraction of its brooding beauty has been from the 16th century onwards. The only other variations that comes even close to its perfection are the Goldberg variations (Glenn Gould renders this masterpiece fully on the piano) . Had Bach only written these two works, he would still be considered the greatest composer who ever lived. The work is often performed separate to the other dances in the Partita and consists of 31 variations. It builds up to a climax with the epicenter being the middle section in the comparative key of D major. The original score remains today in Bach's handwriting and it provides an invaluable reference to understanding the composer's musical intentions. The Chaconne as been performed and recorded by numerous musicians. Leopold Stokowsky´s orchestral arrangement is perhaps Bach´s dream come true. Being one of the few musicians who ever recorded the piece on guitar, is no doubt my dream come true. I invite you to buy my CD Chaconne (2000) here
Staff and Video 1
Very much in the German master's style, the main theme, onto which the masterwork is built, is presented at the very beginning. Although 3/4 and the dotted quarter notes may indicate a strict rhythmic pattern, the truth is that the performer can unlock the tempo bringing out the subtle harmonic beauties of the piece.
The two light blue notes at the end of the staff following the breath coma, indicate the beginning of the first variation.
The second A in measure 1, the third E in measure 2 and the C at the end of measure 3 are passing notes. A passing note is a non-harmonic note that happens between two notes in a scale motion.

I've featured quite a few projects here at Roadkill Rescue that involve cribs being turned into benches. This one by Sara of Thrifty Treasures, however, takes this concept to a whole new level. She transformed crib parts into a settee with some serious style credentials.
From Bath to Backyard Seating
Over at One Krieger Chick, Ariean tells us, "Years ago, my dad came across this cast iron bathtub in excellent condition and since he knows I kinda like old stuff, he asked if I would like it." Of course she said yes, but it took her a few years to figure out how she'd use it.
Dramatic Sofa Makeover
I love a dramatic rescue, don't you? Well, then, you are going to love seeing what happened after Kayla from Confessions of a DIYaholic found this sofa on the side of the road.
Junk + Junk + More Junk = New Couch
At Redoux Interiors, Karen shares an incredible furniture creation. She made this couch almost entirely from junky finds: a headboard, garage door panels, and pieces from a twin bed. You've got to see it to believe it!
Slipcovered Sectional Sofa
"After many years of use in three different households, this sectional sat in our basement, unused," says Ahna of Easier Than I Thought. She had considered getting rid of it, but had a feeling she should keep it.
Sectional Sofa Makeover
What I'm about to share with you wasn't a roadkill rescue: it was a roadkill intervention. It's the story of a sectional sofa that could have been tossed to the curb, but thanks to the brave efforts of it's owners, it got a second chance. Christy from Confessions of a Serial DIYer tells us all about it.
Sofa Set Makeover
Emily and her mom like to redo unwanted furniture in their spare time, and they blog about it at Namely Original. This second hand sofa set was in good enough condition to use in their own living room, but they weren't loving the blonde wood.
Outdoor Pallet Wood Sofa
Laura from The Ironstone Nest was inspired by Donna of Funky Junk Interiors to turn a pile of pallet wood into an outdoor sofa. After casting her vision, Laura passed the project off to her husband, who completed the build and even sewed the pillows. (Now, that is one handy guy to have around!) Of {…Read More…}

Thanks Mark. Appreciate the response. I haven't experimented with props on a hex so your experience with the octo is telling. Turns out a smaller hex I have with 10x4.7 props flies extremely well so I was trying to scale that success up to a heavy lifter. So far it's not panning out and I'm rooting around for the answer.

Awhile back i posed the question whether increasing prop pitch had any effect on gain settings for the HFP board.
It turns out not much. But I learned a few things swapping props, esc's and motors that I'll pass on, for what it's worth. First, this is a 26" XHex with 2814 Avroto motors and Turnigy Plush 30A esc's. This was not what I started with when I originally asked the question but this is what I ended up with to make it run right. As far as props go, I started with the old standby APC 12x3.8. Turns out I lost about 4 clicks of gain with these but gained 2 amps of headroom per motor compared to the Gemfan 12x4.5 carbon blades. Switching to Gemfan 11x4.7 and sliding the motors in 2cm on the booms decreased stability dramatically. Now the real surprise: I was originally running RC Timer 3536/11 motors with RC Timer 50 amp esc's. Swapping these out for the Avroto's and Plush's allowed me to triple my gain setting but I had to switch to 4S batteries to compensate for the slight decrease in power. I just happened to have Avrotos already soldered to the Plush esc's so I swapped them all out as a set. The RC Timer 3535/11's are a well known and well liked motor. I think the RC Timer ESC's were the issue causing the low gain problem. So, after a full day, the bottom line is the hex is finally running at a decent 74 (setup client) gain @ 4160 grams. Whew! |

Yeah, you were right on. Now I see why everyone is still using APC. There must be a fair amount of engineering behind them to give me the same throttle position and 2 amps less draw per motor.

Description This is a continuation-in-part of my prior co-pending application Ser. No. 07/054,037 filed May 22, 1987, now abandoned, which is a continuation of my prior co-pending application Ser. No. 06/764,393 filed Aug. 12, 1985, now abandoned. 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a continuous process for producing alcohol and is more particularly concerned with a continuous process of producing alcohol through continuous fermentation, solvent extraction, extractive distillation dehydration and vacuum stripping. 2. Description of the Prior Art The old method of separating alcohols from water uses distillation. Typically, a beer still is used to process the fermented product which contains alcohol in an aqueous mixture and thereby produce an enriched alcohol mixture which is then dried using azeotropic distillation. Solvent extraction processes have been developed earlier, but these systems do not enable the recovery of ethanol which is dry enough to produce gasohol in a single distillation step. My present invention, using extractive distillation dehydration followed by vacuum stripping, appears to be superior to the earlier solvent regeneration techniques in that it reduces the energy requirement further and produces a higher quality product. Briefly described, the present invention provides a continuous process for recovering low molecular weight carboxylic acids and alcohols from dilute aqueous mixtures typically produced by fermentation. In the process, the alcohol, typically ethanol, is generated continuously, being produced from molasses, fermentation microorganisms and water in a fermentation tank. The fermenter product or beer or broth produced is continuously fed to a solvent extraction column where a solvent dissolves the alcohol and other low molecular weight metabolites (e.g., acetic and lactic acids) to produce an extract which is immiscible in water, but contains the bulk of the inhibitory metabolites. The raffinate therefrom, containing water, residual alcohol, fermentation microorganisms, and solids may then be recycled via a decanter and, optionally, an evaporator and filter system. The liquid effluent may then be returned to the fermentation tank. The extract from the liquid/liquid extraction column passes, via a decanter and heat exchangers, to an extractive distillation dehydration unit for extractive distillation which separates, as an overhead, the water from the alcohol and solvent. The dehydrated extract (alcohol and solvent), is then fed to a vacuum stripper, where the fuel grade alcohol is separated from the solvent. In case other inhibitory metabolites (e.g., acetic acid) are present these may also be recovered at this point. The solvent portion from the vacuum stripper is then returned to the solvent extraction and extractive distillation columns. Significant parts of this invention are the improved solvent regeneration steps which are associated with the ethanol and other alcohol extractions. In my earlier inventions, solvent regeneration has been based upon either vacuum stripping or carrier gas stripping of the extract. This invention improves on the earlier inventions by enabling the recovery of fuel grade ethanol without the use of a second solvent. Also, the extractive distillation step is used to selectively dry the solvent, and it is followed by the recovery of the dry ethanol in a vacuum stripping step. The drawing is a flow diagram of the process the present invention. Referring now in detail to the embodiment chosen for the purpose of illustrating the best mode of the present invention, numeral 10 denotes a conventional fermenter or fermentation tank or vat in which a concentrated aqueous solution of molasses containing sugar is fermented using brewers' yeast or another fermentation microorganism or microbe such as Saccharamyces cerevisiae for converting the sugars and starches into alcohol, namely, ethanol. The concentrated aqueous solution of molasses, with sugar therein, used as the feed material is fed to the fermenter 10, either intermittently or continuously, via pipe 11, and the fermentation microorganisms, such as brewers yeast in a water carrier, are fed, as needed, via pipe 12, to tank 10. Air for sparging is introduced, via pipe 13, and the "off gases", namely the excess air and carbon dioxide are discharged, via duct 14. The fermenter product, namely the beer or broth from the fermentation tank 10 is fed, via pipe 16, to the solvent extraction column or unit 20 wherein an organic solvent for the alcohol is admixed with the fermenter product. The fermenter 10 is operated continuously to produce this fermenter product which is sent to the solvent extraction column 20. The alcohol concentration is generally between 5-10%, however, the microorganisms used for the fermentation can tolerate alcohol concentrations up to about 15%. The process of the present invention has also been found to be effective in recovering alcohol from dilute fermenter products having about 0.5-5.0% alcohol. In the solvent extraction column 20, a water distillate product, stream 81, from the extractive dehydration step is combined with this fermenter product, as the product is added to the solvent extraction column 20. The fermenter product, stream 16, may be introduced as an intermediate feed to the solvent extraction column 20 while the water distillate product from the extractive distillation dehydration is added, as a scrub, to the solvent extraction column 20. This permits efficient liquid/liquid extraction of the ethanol from the fermenter product or broth or beer, at reduced costs. Maintaining a high sugar concentration of about 3% by weight in the fermenter 10 and in the feed, i.e., in the fermenter product, that is sent to the solvent extraction column 20, favorably enhances the ability of the solvent extraction column 20 selectively to extract ethanol. Fermenter 10 and extraction column 20 are maintained at approximately 27� C., and can be as low as 23� C. Two effects are noted: (1) the ethanol exhibits higher distribution coefficients in the presence of sugar; and (2) the water activity is reduced and, therefore, less water is co-extracted into the solvent extract. The extract from the solvent extraction column 20, which contains the alcohol, the solvent or solvents, residual water and foam solids, is then sent to an extractive distillation dehydration unit 30. In its travel from the liquid-to-liquid extraction column 20 the dehydration unit 30, the extract, which is made up mostly of alcohol and solvent, passes, via pipe 21, to a gravity separator, such as decanter 23, wherein the heavier fraction, usually containing water, microorganisms and solids, is returned, via pipe 22 to an intermediate portion of the column 20. Extractive distillation, unit 30, is operated so as to partially strip the extract. Because the water which is co-extracted with the ethanol can be selectively stripped using extractive distillation, I am able to effectively dehydrate the extract and produce a fuel grade product in a single cycle. A key feature of the extractive distillation, unit 30, is the ability to effectively dehydrate the extract without distilling a significant portion of the solvent. This is accomplished by sending regenerated solvent, stream 61, to the toP of the extractive distillation column but without evaporating large amounts of solvent. Hence the energy requirements are very low. It is important to note that the volatility of water is much greater than that of ethanol in the presence of the solvent. This means that the extractive distillation column requires very few actual stages compared to equivalent distillation. For example, in the laboratory we have been able to maintain ethanol concentrations less than 1 wt % in stream 80 simply by adjusting the conditions (flowrates and temperatures) of streams 61 and 31. In these tests, column 30 contained only 3 bubble cap trays between streams 31 and 61 and only 3 bubble cap trays between streams 31 and 32 or only 6 actual trays in all which is much less than for distillation. However, we often prefer to control stream 80 at about 10 wt % ethanol. The heat exchangers 25 and 27 serve as preheaters for the dehydration unit 30 which in order to dry efficiently and quickly should be maintained at about 85� C. Drying temperatures up to about 150� C. have been used effectively. In the extractive distillation dehydration unit 30, the water ethanol mixture forms an overhead which is removed from the extractive distillation unit 30 and is recycled back to the solvent extraction system. In general, it is desirable to maintain low ethanol concentrations in this stream, but any ethanol which may be present is not lost since it is recycled to solvent extraction, unit 20. The bottom effluent from the extractive distillation unit is a dehydrated extract which contains the bulk of the solvent and ethanol, but only very small quantities of water. It also contains any co-extracted acids (e.g., acetic acid). From the dehydration unit 30, the dehydrated extract is sent, via pipe 32, valve 35 and pipe 34 into a vacuum stripping unit 40 for ethanol removal and solvent regeneration. In order to control solvent carry-over, some refluxing of the resulting ethanol is necessary, but these requirements are relatively small. For refluxing, I have provided partial condenser 41 to which the overhead (primarily alcohol) from unit 40 is fed, as illustrated, through line 42, the return of the solvent being by line 43. In actual practice, the amount of solvent carried over in stream 43 can be kept very small. It depends upon the solvent mixture used, the number of trays in column 40 and the temperature at the bottom of column 40. In the lab, for example, we have kept solvent carryover (stream 43) to less than one (1)% of the total condensed product (stream 63) by simply avoiding excessive heating at the bottom of the column stream 44 and the pressure drop between the columns (streams 32 and 34). In this test, column 40 contained very few actual bubble cap trays (only 2 between streams 43 and 34 and only 4 between streams 34 and 44). Because of the prior extractive distillation dehydration, the ethanol product or extract, which is discharged as the final product, is much drier than can be obtained if the produce is stripped without the extractive distillation step. This overhead product, which is discharged through pipe 46, is fuel grade alcohol (98%+ alcohol). The preheater or first heat exchanger 25, which is in series with second heat exchanger 27, in the alcohol extract line between the solvent extraction unit 20 and the dehydration unit 30 is heated by the hot regenerated solvent. This regenerated solvent is then fed to the solvent extraction column or unit 20, via pipe 47 or to the extractive distillation column, stream 61. Make up solvent can be conveniently introduced, via pipe 69, into pipe 47. In actual practice, however, virtually no solvent makeup is required because (1) the aqueous solubility of the solvent is very low and (2) the volatility of the solvent is quite low compared to the extracted water, ethanol and any other metabolites. In the laboratory we have demonstrated essentially 100% solvent recycle because of these low losses and no measurable solvent degradation during recycle. With respect to column 20, the bottom raffinate, which contains the microorganisms, the solids and the water, together with residual amounts of solvent, is recycled, via pipe 48, decanter or separator 64, evaporator 75, heat exchanger 68, filter 67, and pipes 52, 53 and 54 and sent to the fermenter 10. In the decanter 64, any entrained solvent is removed, via pipe 49 and returned to unit 20. The evaporator 75 (optional) may be used to remove excess water. However, a bleed stream may also be used to accomplish the same purpose. In case an enzyme of importance is in the fermentate, this latter option may be preferred. Heat exchanger 68 is used to return the recycle stream to the temperature of the fermenter, unit 10. Finally, excess or degraded biomass may be removed via filter 67. In some cases, metal ion removal may also be desirable depending upon the substrate which is being fermented. The advantages of this process are significantly reduced energy and capital costs and the elimination of secondary waste production during the solvent regeneration steps. Other techniques require substantially more energy due to higher reflux requirements. Also, other techniques require more capital investment due to lower fermenter productivities and significantly greater tray requirements (i.e., much taller columns as in distillation). Thirdly, the concept appears to be an improvement over the process of using two solvent extraction cycles because it avoids the solvent cross-contamination problems which would be existing with this concept. Standard equipment items may be used for the liquid/liquid extraction column 20, extractive distillation dehydration unit 30, and vacuum stripping unit 40. Standard equipment can also be used for the continuous fermentation, fermenter 10. This technology is well developed and a number of equipment items may be used effectively; however, it is preferred to use a solvent extraction column which is relatively gentle on the microorganisms which pass through it. Specifically, it would be undesirable to use a high speed centrifugal contactor to achieve the solvent extraction step. A preferred equipment item would be the rotating disc column or the reciprocating plate column for solvent extraction or mixer-settlers. Pressure ranges throughout the system vary anywhere from 100 mmHg to 760 mmHg. Solvent regeneration is best accomplished at about 100 mmHg or greater in order to use cooling water to condense the product rather than refrigeration. The preferred solvents for the present invention consist of branched paraffin diluents ranging from C12 to C16, such as ISOPAR-L or ISOPAR-M and the like which are isoparaffins having relatively high boiling points. Suitable paraffin diluents also include substances, such as NORPAR-12 or NORPAR-13 which are linear alkanes composed primarily of C11 and C12 hydrocarbons. The branched paraffins, like ISOPAR-L or ISOPAR-M, are preferred due to their higher selectivity from branching. The selected solvent need not be limited to the above-mentioned preferred solvents. The solvent used in the present invention must not be toxic to fermentation microorganisms. Water must be more volatile than ethanol in the presence of the selected solvent and the solvent should be less volatile than either water or ethanol in ternary mixtures of these three species. The solvent must not form stable emulsions when mixed vigorously with fermentation broths. The solvent should be chemically stable in the presence of fermentation broths or, if it undergoes degradation, the degradation products must exhibit similar properties as the solvent. The solvent must be a liquid at all operating temperatures in the process. The solvent must not be highly flammable or result in explosive conditions within the process. The solvent viscosity, density, and liquid/liquid interfacial tension with fermentation broths must be such as to enable a primary break time of less than ten minutes. If the solvent includes nonpolar diluents, then extracts should not form third phases. The selected solvent must include chemical groups which enable it to coordinate and solvate ethanol. In addition to those species already cited, the solvent could include hydroxydiols, polysilicates, or other similar polar functionalities that enable hydrogen bonding and/or solvation coordination with ethanol. The preferred diluents may be suitably modified with substances, such as tridecyl alcohol, tridecyl acid, tridecyl acetate, and the like or tri-n-butyl phosphate which are blended in the solvent, i.e., diluent. The above modifiers are preferred over solvents, such as 2-ethyl hexanol or octanol, because these latter alcohols exhibit a higher toxicity to microorganisms. The preferred solvents on the other hand exhibit negligible toxicity to microorganisms such as brewers' yeast. Laboratory tests have shown, for example, that my solvents have no toxic effects on microbe viability for the following species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus, Clostridium thermocellum, or Zymomonis mobilis. Insofar as the solvents have no effect on Zymomonis Mobilis (a particularly sensitive microbe), I believe they will not affect any microbe of interest. In fact, the reason these solvents have no effect proves another important solvent benefit. Namely, the aqueous solubilities of my recommended solvents are exceedingly small. the solvents do not interfere with microbe functions in any way yet they are useful for metabolite removal. As is well known, other by-products are produced during fermentation besides alcohol. These include acetic and lactic acids, both of which do extract to some extent in the solvents. However, I do not recommend tri-n-butYl phosphate (TBP) as a solvent whenever the pH of the fermentate is low and significant acids are co-extracted. During runs with tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP), it was observed that some solvent degradation appears to occur with this phosphate ester. Batch tests were conducted by heating a sample of the solvent with the beer to temperatures around 80� C. Subsequently, it was observed that the organic phase darkened visibly. This observation suggests that solvent degradation will be a problem if this ester is used. On the other hand, tridecyl acetate is an ester which may be highly suitable, especially if one extracts from beers containing significant acetate concentrations. In other cases, it is often preferable to use the branched chain paraffins as solvents and/or chain alcohols, such as tridecyl alcohol and decyl alcohol which do not experience this degradation problem. The appropriate ratio of solvent to alcohol is approximately 1:1. However, solvent to alcohol ratios as high as 10 to 1 or a low as 1 to 10 may also be preferred for certain applications. Alternatively, the solvent may consist of 100% modifier (e.g., tridecyl alcohol). This solvent has been used successfully on very dilute fermentates, for example. Long-chain alcohols and acids are suitable modifiers for paraffin and/or alcohol solvent systems. Fatty alcohols and fatty acids are also useful as solvents. Some examples of fatty alcohols which are useful solvents include lauryl, cetearyl, cetyl, stearyl, and tallow types. Fatty acids which are useful as solvents include coconut, tallow, and linseed fractions. These alcohols and acids are relatively inexpensive. Chemically the alcohols are very similar to tridecyl alcohol although they often contain longer aliphatic chain groups on them. Where the diluent is a branched chain paraffin and the modifier is selected from the group consisting of long chain alcohols, fatty alcohols, fatty acids, and long-chain esters, the ratio of diluent to modifier may be from 10/1 to 1/10. Blended ratios of long-chain esters mixed with long chain alcohols in a ratio of 10/1 to 1/10 may also be used as a solvent. The coupling of solvent extraction with continuous fermentation offers the possibility of higher alcohol production rates with reduced costs. There is also a favorable interaction between solvent extraction and continuous fermentation since the solvents which I suggest exhibit low toxicity. The use of lower molecular weight alcohols, such as octanol, are unacceptable for this application because of their toxicity to the microorganisms in the fermenter. The solvent extraction process is enhanced substantially by the presence of sugar in the fermentation effluent. It would be desirable to operate the fermenter at the highest possible sugar concentration, although there are problems with this mode of operation since high sugar concentrations can also inhibit the fermentation process. However, maintaining the sugar concentration in the fermenter at approximately 3% by weight results in a product having a sufficiently high sugar concentration in the effluent. The pH range is not that critical except that the fermentation should be carried out in a slightly acidic environment in order to prevent the formation of stable emulsions. Another advantage of the continuous fermenter and solvent extraction equipment, especially if a reciprocating plate column is used, is that it eliminates the need to remove the biomass from the fermenter product. This advantage eliminates the use of a centrifuge which is relatively expensive. In this case, filter 67 is also not used. However, it does limit the type of contactor which can be used in the solvent extraction step. Specifically, it is necessary to use a contactor which mixes the two phases with relatively low shear stress, otherwise the cell viability is reduced. There is a favorable interaction between the extractive distillation unit 30 and the solvent extraction unit 20. Specifically, the presence of the extractive distillation allows the use of less selective solvents in unit 20 which have greater solute capacities and distribution coefficients. Hence, the restrictions concerning loss of selectivity with increased ethanol concentrations are eliminated by this synergism. Moreover, this problem is more difficult to overcome using other techniques. There is an interaction between the extractive distillation dehydration unit 20 and the vacuum stripping unit 40 which is favorable. Specifically, the elimination of the extractive distillation dehydration unit 30 does not permit the recovery of fuel grade ethanol in a single extraction cycle. However, the dehydration unit 30 removes that water which is present in the extract and, therefore, the ethanol product can be taken during the vacuum stripping step to produce a high quality product. The process described above is superior to ethanol recovery by membrane permeation since membranes are susceptible to fouling. Also, membranes are relatively expensive. Also, the current invention utilizes relatively simple unit operations which can be easily scaled up to commercial size. Although I have not completed a detailed evaluation of the above process, it appears that it will permit further reductions in energy use compared to earlier inventions. Specifically, this process will enable recovery of fuel grade product by distilling the ethanol product only once. The earlier concepts, particularly the two cycle process, require that the ethanol product be evaporated and condensed twice. In the present concept this difficulty is avoided and, therefore, it is expected that it will offer the most efficient method for recovering fuel grade ethanol directly. When this invention (unoptimized) is compared to optimized distillation, significant savings in recovery costs become apparent. These savings are also a function of the solute (ethanol) concentration in the fermentate and they are larger as the fermentate quality decreases. For example, a manufacturer producing 100 million liters per year of 99+ ethanol (99% recovery) will realize a net savings of about 10� per gallon of ethanol if the fermentate contains about 5 weight to percent ethanol. If the fermentate contains about 1.9 weight to percent ethanol, my invention will save at least 30� per gallon recovered. If the fermentate contains about 0.6 weight to percent ethanol, my invention will save at least 40� per gallon. Higher savings will probably be realized; however, since my invention has not yet been completely optimized. Clearly, however, this invention is highly valuable for ethanol recovery from low grade fermentates such as from waste materials. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that many variations may be made in the embodiment here chosen for the purpose of illustration without departing from the scope thereof, as defined by the appended claims.

I think most all the gains came from the drol. I ran just those two because I wanted to make sure they where real because they where from a powder source. If it wasn't for that I would of just went with the drol and some test. Almost forgot to mention that my blood pressure was elevated slightly. I don't remeber the exact amount because it was awhile ago. Also I did get a few slight headaches which could of been related. Also I ran it for 8 weeks. Another thing I didn't include was excruiating pumps from even walking to far but didn't really consider this a negative side and that always happens when I take anadrol anyway.

Avalanche Airbags Recalled for Injury/Death Hazards
11/26/2013 // WPB, FL, USA // Injury Lawyers News // Nicole Howley // (press release)
New York, N.Y.—The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Health Canada and Backcountry Access (BCA) has voluntarily recalled Avalanche airbags due to injury hazards. The CPSC announced the nationwide product recall on November 26, 2013.
The Avalanche airbags were recalled after discovering that the trigger assembly can fail, which will prevent the airbag from deploying. This poses a risk of death and injury to a consumer in the event of an avalanche.
"This recall involves BCA Avalanche airbags, models Float 18, 22, 30, 32, 36 and Throttle. The airbags are used for skiing, snowmobiling and mountain climbing to help keep the user above the surface if an avalanche occurs. The airbags are yellow and are housed in a blue, red or black pack. The packs have the model name printed on them. 'Float' and the 'bca' logo are printed in black lettering on the airbag. Lot letters A through E are included in the recall. The lot letter can be found on the trigger handle," the CPSC reported.
Consumers are advised to contact BCA for a free replacement trigger assembly.
For more information concerning the nationwide product recall, consumers can contact Backcountry Access (BCA) at (800) 670-8735 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. MT Monday through Friday or online at www.backcountryaccess.com.
