JMI Telescopes (Jim's Mobile, Inc.) is a world-renowned manufacturer of astronomical telescopes and after-market accessories for the amateur and professional astronomer. We produce a variety of unique products that cannot be found anywhere else. The founder and President of Jim's Mobile is Jim Burr.
Jim's philosophy is to create products that no others are selling. "Our style is not to copy other companies, but to create unique products to solve problems. If other companies are building good products, we are not going to compete with them. We only take action when we see a need that no one is addressing. In the case of our NGF focusers, even though there were many companies building focusers, we could find nothing that came close to zero image shift. I thought the time had come to solve that problem."
"The development of the NGT line of telescopes, spanning more than a decade, has been very exciting for us here at JMI. These telescopes represent a total departure from trends in commercial telescope making, and there is no doubt they have a bright future. Our telescopes have received recognition in more than a dozen publications worldwide."

Workflow Application Provides Single Cell Analysis for Immunology, Oncology, and Stem Cell Research
By BiotechDaily International staff writers
Posted on 17 Sep 2013
NanoString Technologies, Inc. (Seattle, WA, USA), a provider of life-science tools for translational research and molecular diagnostic products, and BD Biosciences (San Jose, CA, USA), a segment of BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), a leading global medical technology company, reported on a collaboration agreement for the development of a single cell isolation and analysis workflow.
The companies, under the agreement, will jointly develop a workflow using the NanoString nCounter analysis system (including the nCounter single cell assay) and the BD flow cytometry cell-sorter product range (emphasizing the new BD FACSJazz cell sorting system). The combined workflow will enable single cell gene expression analysis for research applications such as immunology, and stem cell, and oncology research. Collaboration work will also include the development of materials validating the workflow protocol, as well as cohosting webinars and meetings to educate scientists about the single cell workflow.
"Maximizing both the quantity and quality of data that can be extracted from a single cell is critical to the emerging field of single cell biology. The nCounter analysis system can analyze entire gene pathways and provides a highly precise and reproducible digital output, making it ideally suited to the task," said Brad Gray, president and chief executive officer, NanoString Technologies. "The nCounter analysis system and the BD FACSJazz cell sorting system can together provide a powerful and efficient workflow for single cell gene expression analysis."
"Our collaboration with NanoString Technologies furthers BD's commitment to providing researchers advanced solutions for cell analysis and isolation," said Alberto Mas, president, BD Biosciences. "We believe this new sorting workflow will complement the recent and very rapid advances in genomic studies that value the requirement for greater sample integrity for critical single cell analysis."
NanoString Technologies' nCounter analysis system is a multi-application digital detection and counting system with a highly automated and simple workflow. The company's single cell gene expression application provides researchers with a highly flexible and sensitive approach to discovering differences in cell-to-cell gene expression profiles. The tool enables up to 800 genes to be detected in a single tube.
The BD FACSJazz cell sorting system identifies, characterizes, and isolates single or multiple cells—from complicated or very rare cell populations—and positioning them in 96- and 384-well plates to provide fast cell isolation, tracking, and identification throughout the process.
NanoString Technologies is a global provider of life-science tools for translational research and molecular diagnostic products. The company's nCounter analysis system has also now been applied to diagnostic use in the European Union. The system offers a cost-effective way to easily profile the expression of hundreds of genes, miRNAs, or copy number variations, simultaneously with high sensitivity and precision. The System is available for "research use only" in North America.
BD is a global medical technology company that develops, manufactures, and markets medical devices, instrument systems, and reagents. The company serves healthcare institutions, life-science researchers, clinical laboratories, the pharmaceutical industry, and the general public.

Pollard: It was a total disappointment
By KEVIN SUNICH Tuesday, July 9 2013 WEST Indies stand in captain Kieron Pollard said the teams 39- run defeat at the hands of Sri Lanka in their Celkon Tri-Nations match at the Queens Park Oval yesterday was a let down, after they had won their first two matches. This was their second defeat after going down to India on Friday at the same venue. The all-rounder said having a strong hold on the opposition, it was heart breaking to suffer such a defeat.

Claim to Fame: Singing career
Who can be romantically linked to Taylor Swift...and how closely?
Fearless (2011)
Fearless is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. The album was released on November 11, 2008, by Big Machine Records. As with her debut, Swift wrote or co-wrote all thirteen tracks on Fearless. Most of the songs were written as the singer promoted her debut album as opening act for numerous country artists. Due to the unavailability of collaborators on the road, eight songs were self-pinned by Swift. Other songs were co-written with Liz Rose, Hillary Lindsey, Colbie Caillat, and John Rich. Swift also made her debut as a record producer, co-producing all songs on the album with Nathan Chapman.
The Giver (2014)
You can make things better.
In a seemingly perfect community, without war, pain, suffering, differences or choice, a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man about the true pain and pleasure of the "real" world.
When asked by a fan if she was someone else (an actress), who would she be, she replied she'd like to be Gwyneth Paltrow, as she "is beautiful, cool and has beautiful kids".
Gave a free showcase to her Brazilian fans on September 13, 2012 in Rio de Janeiro to promote her 'Red' album. It was her first time ever in Brazil.
Almost every time I put something out, there's the word 'too' put in front of it - too pop, too country, too rock. So I've kinda stopped worrying about it. I'd rather be too something than not enough something.
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

"No HUD cheat"
Hi there. I can't get the "no HUD" cheat to work ("usetheforceluke"). At least on the space maps... Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance. |
Well I think most of those who played the game already knew that and other stuff like mostimpressive;) This works not only for space battles.
But I can't get it to work though. The HUD is still there...

This is the perfect beach house for a family. It is on the bayside with water on two sides with a dock to tie up your boat or to let the children do some crabbing or fishing! The beautiful back deck is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee and watching the boaters go out to fish or to entertain family and friends as the sun goes down. The kitchen also has a bar that seats 3 and the dining room has a table that seats up to ten by adding one table leaf. The community pool is about a 1 minute walk from the front door. There is plenty of parking and we have both a gas grill and a charcoal grill for your use. A washer and dryer are off the dining room and a family room with TV and video equipment. No pets are allowed but there are pet care facilities close by. We are within 10 minutes of walking to the beach and the boardwalk tram. The waterpark is directly behind the beach house as well as the children's park with rides, many eating facilities and the popular Salty Dog Pub.
I am Dr. Sharon Yoder and am a full time national speaker and a professor at Wilmington University, Delaware. A world traveler , was single Mom with 5 children and grew up in Ohio, however, the ocean stole our hearts!
"We love this corner lot. with water on 2 sides. It is lovely to have a beautiful, well-cared for swimming pool about 50 steps away from our front door and a dock for boats and crabbing for the children. The view from the upper deck reminds me of Venice when I drink my morning coffee!"
The tram to the boardwalk is close by, swimming pool is on site, the children's park with lots of rides is directly behind us, the go- kart race track and fabulous water park is a 5 minute walk, docks, boat rental, water skiing, numerous eating facilities, the well known Salty Dog Pub, and much,much more.

"This property is so close to everything and yet so peacerful and quiet. Unbelieveable , but true. We are a 10 minute nice walk to the ocean, a 5 minute walk to the water park and children's rides and a wonderful, safe area for bike riding, a great pub within walking distance and a quick walk to catch a bus to the boardwalk or if you do not want to drive."

When do Patriots tickets go on sale? Do they go on sale on the same day and time for all teams, because I'm interested in going to a road game as well.
Pats tickets sales was last month. Each team is different. Check their websites. Some will be sold out. Not all teams reserve a block of tickets for non-seasons-ticket holders the way the pats do. Some have sold every seat to seasons ticket holders.
damn, I could have swore it was in June of last year. oh well, I guess I missed the boat on that one. I've been so busy with work and planning a wedding, I need more Pats time.
It was. Traditionally individual tix went on sale in June. I believe they did it early this year because of the incredibly high season ticket renewal rate.

If you remember way back during Computex 2012 earlier in the year, we got to see a glimpse of a 22-inch Viewsonic Android Tablet. Obviously, the idea of a giant Android tablet was both ridiculously cool and ridiculously impractical. As it turns out, the concept device didn't actually end up as a tablet. ViewSonic wizened up and ditched the internal battery of the device. Now it is simply the ViewSonic 22-inch Android VSD220 Smart Display, and will be hitting US retail stores in October at a price of $399.99. This thing is basically just an Android powered monitor, which really takes on a whole different dimension if you think about it. Some future evolution of this beast could basically replace the desktop computer completely. In fact, for some users, this specific device itself could do that already. Here's a spec/feature breakdown followed by a press release: 1,920 x 1080 full HD screen that is touch-enabled Dual-core 1GHz TI OMAP 4428 processor Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich 1GB RAM 8GB internal storage A micro HDMI port Three USB ports A microSD card slot Ethernet A 1.2MP webcam with integrated microphone
Do NOT trust Viewsonic! Wonderful idea. . . and three days after it comes out, Viewsonic will stop supporting it! Just ask a gTab owner.
i think its a cool idea. wonder if others will push it. i mean. same sung already ahs the windows tablet with its dock and keyboard.

Pro Force Snugpak Stamina 40 Backpack is rated out of 5 by 1.Rated 1 out of 5 by Albert from Poorly made! Love Snugpak products and the price was the best I could find on the net and ordered this for a backpacking trip. Had it for about a week and started packing it up and cinched down the enclosure under the top flap and about ten inches of the material pulled away from the inside of the pack.

Excellent Gaming site Begats an Excellent Podcast
Part of Evil Avatar's appeal is its acceptance of the bias every member has, and how that member will have opinions on the news, even the news that they post, and has a chance to show these feelings. The podcast is simply an extension of this idea, and although it did fumble some at first, it has become a great show, especially if you can experience it live with EA forumers you know, on the webchat set up every Friday night as the show is recorded and broadcast.
A fun listen
I listen to many gaming podcasts, and this is one of my favorites. I enjoy that it doesn't take itself overly serious, but still manages to be informative and a fun listen. Having input from interactive users via an online chat also gives the show a unique feel.
Great podcast!
Professional and good quality coverage of game news. Plus, the after show banter is awesome!

INTERVIEW: Unearth's Buz McGrath
Unearth have been slogging it out on the metal scene for 15 years now and have proven themselves to be real stayers, helping to remind folks that seven-string guitars can be used for more than just open-string chugging and showing that you can combine the punishing groove of Pantera with the melodic sense of Sweden's Gothenberg sound and the power of traditional metal, all filtered through an aggressive metalcore lens. New album Watchers of Rule (3Wise) is a consistently brutal chunk of metal by anyone's standards. But this far into Unearth's career, it's almost exhilarating to hear them continuing to release vital albums full of songs that are destined to live on in the setlist. I caught up with guitarist Buz McGrath right after the album's release.
Want to win a copy of the album? Email firstname.lastname@example.com with 'Unearth' in the subject line and I'll draw five winners! Australia only.
Let's start with the guitar stuff. What did you use on this album?
We used a Rhodes amp. I don't know what it is. And I think we used one of Ken's old custom Ibanez RGs that won the shoot-out. Usually what happens is we go through a stack of about 15 guitars and we record the same piece of music, the same riff, with each guitar, and you go through and listen to which guitar is sounding the best with what you've got, and that one won. It was between that one and, Ken had a custom three-pickup Ibanez Iceman with EMGs in it. That thing weighed a fucking tonne but it sounded sick. But the other one just beat it out by a little bit. We recorded with a Kemper via DI, and then [producer] Mark Lewis took it back to his studio and re-amped it through various amps, which I wasn't a part of the process for. He would send me mixes with different amps and I'd say 'this one sounds good.' So I never even saw the amp. It's a real weird way of doing it but it worked out good. Continue reading

REVIEW: Boss TE-2 Tera Echo
Okay, this sounds like a Groucho Marx gag, but… "I love a good delay pedal. And the Boss Tera Echo is nothing like a good delay pedal." I know, I know, but hear me out: the doesn't claim to be a delay pedal in the traditional sense. It's not going to usurp Boss's much-loved DD series of delay stompboxes, for instance. I say this because in all the online chatter I've seen about this pedal, the general view is "Oh, another Boss delay pedal? Cool …I like Boss delay pedals," without any deeper understanding of what this pedal is designed to do. But this thing really goes beyond traditional delay, to the point of avoiding it all together. Don't think of it as 'another cool Boss delay,' but rather as 'another cool Boss pedal innovation.' Continue reading
REVIEW: Seymour Duncan Pegasus & Sentient
As a seven – and now eight – string guitarist, I'm fully aware that the needs of an extra-stringer are different to those of someone who plays a sixer. You have to have clarity on the low string(s), because what's the point of having an extra string if it's virtually inaudible? And you need the rest of the guitar to still sound right, because what's the point of having the regular six strings if their tone is going to be sacrificed in honour of that one low string? To date most seven and eight-string pickups have been expanded versions of existing pickup models, but Seymour Duncan's new Pegasus, Sentient and Nazgul pickups are designed from the ground up to cater to the needs of seven and eight-string players. That's right: there's no six-string version of any of these pickups. Continue reading
Seymour Duncan Sentient Out Now
It's about time we seven and eight stringers had some more passive humbuckers designed just for us! There are relatively few 'extra string' pickups out there that aren't based on existing models, but that's starting to change now that the guitar world really seems to be accepting 7 and 8-strings as part of the musical landscape. Seymour Duncan has launched three 7/8 pickups this year, the Nazgul, the Pegasus and the Sentient. You can hear the Sentient (along with the Nazgul) in this video featuring Keith Merrow and Ola Englund: Continue reading

INTERVIEW: Periphery's Misha Mansoor
A lot has happened since I Heart Guitar last interviewed Misha Mansoor. In the space of a mere year, the djent movement – of which Mansoor's band Periphery is a central focus – has gone from metal curiosity to fully-fledged phenomenon. The Icarus Lives! Ep has further solidified Mansoor's reputation as one of the most technically gifted metal guitarists of his generation, yet he maintains an open dialog with fans, continuing to post video and audio of random jammage – new gear, Nyan cat, the list goes on. Periphery are heading to Australia in July for the League Of Extraordinary Djentlemen tour with Tesseract, and I Heart Guitar caught up with Misha to talk about what's happened in the past year.
Hey Misha.
Hi! We've talked before, haven't we?
Yes we have, about a year ago.
Yeah! I Heart Guitar! I remember that.
Yeah, cool! So the Melbourne stop of your Aussie tour has recently been upgraded to a bigger venue because ticket sales were so good.
Yeah! That was very unexpected. I don't know how that happened. I don't know who we paid off to make that happen! But that is more than a pleasant surprise. Australia was one of the most fun tours – it was like a vacation to us. I don't know what it is, but everyone was so nice and welcoming. And I'm not just saying that. Australians are like some of the nicest people we've ever met. It was a treat, and having some of the love come right back to us was really awesome. So seeing that the shows sold out so fast was like icing on the cake for us.
Everyone seems to know who you are and about the whole djent movement now. How are you coping with that? Does it mess with your head? Do you try not to think about it?
I try not to think about it. This whole djent movement thing is very funny and silly to me because it's appearing out of nowhere, almost parallel to what we're doing. I think people don't realise that we've just been doing what we've been doing. It wasn't cool to be playing this style of music for the majority of the time that we've been writing and playing the music that we do, and we write and play the music that we do because it's the only thing that we know how to do. It's just going for it. It's not like we sat down one day and said "I'm gonna start a new fad or something." It wasn't like that at all, it was just doing what we were doing. So it's just interesting to see how that all happens. It is very surreal. And we focus on it a bit, like we named our tour the League Of Extraordinary Djentlemen. We don't take it all too seriously, and it's not all that relevant to me in day to day life or anything. It just is what it is, y'know?
NEWS: Periphery announces Oz tour
Periphery are heading back to Australia (home of I Heart Guitar and some of the most deadly creatures you ever heard of) with their 'The League Of Extraordinary Djentlement' tour with Tesseract, courtesy of Soundwave Touring.

Frequently Asked Questions
For over the past 20 years, Miles Industries has introduced thousands of North American Families to a whole new type of fireplace, one that is quite distinct from traditional hearth products. It's called the Gas Fireplace, and although it take many forms, it is defined by features and benefits that have proven to be especially useful and popular with our customers.
Effectively, Miles Industries has played a major role in revolutionizing the fireplace industry. In fact, knowledgeable people within the industry acknowledge Miles leading role in first pioneering and then advancing the technology of gas fireplaces.
To help you better appreciate the important features and benefits of our products and assist in the selection of an appropriate model, we offer the following guide to the selection of your gas fireplace.
- What is a BTU?
- How many BTU's will I need?
- What is the Comfort Zone and how does this relate to BTU's?
- Why is adjustable heat output so important?
- What is the ValorStat and how is it better than a thermostat?
- How does radiant heat figure in the Comfort Zone?
- Should my gas fireplace have a blower?
- What type of fireplace do I need in my home?
- How do I convert my wood-burning fireplace into a gas fireplace?
What is a BTU?
A BTU or British Thermal Unit is the amount of heat required to raise 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit. All gas appliances are rated in BTU's/hr Input which is an approximation of the amount of gas consumed on full fire in one hour as expressed in terms of the heat potential of the gas. Depending on the design and efficiency of the appliance, a certain proportion of the heat generated from burning ends up as useful heat in the room (Heat Output) while some portion is lost to vents and chimneys (Flue Loss). All Valor models are tested and certified to Heater standards and therefore are rated for Heat Output. This is determined at full fire, without optional blowers and after the heater is up to operating temperatures.
How many BTUs will I need?
The amount of heat you will require will depend on a number of factors such as room size, insulation levels, amount and type of windows, climate and the type and use of other heating systems in the home. It will also vary from hour to hour, day to day and season to season because of these same factors. To give you a general guideline, studies average winter home heat requirement was between 10,000 and 20,000 BTU/hr. Specifically, a 1300 square foot house in Vermont with average insulation required 14,000 BTU/hr in January and February.
What is the Comfort Zone and how does this relate to BTU's?
The Comfort Zone is that area in your home that can attain an even comfort level using a steady burning efficient heat source like a Valor fireplace Heater. Depending on your house layout and fireplace location, the Comfort Zone may be one room or a complete level or zone. In Fall or Spring, a Valor may easily provide comfort for the entire home. The amount of BTU's of heat necessary to maintain this Comfort Zone is in the range of 5,000 to 15,000 BTU/hr. This relatively small amount of heat can be very effective, especially when it is constant like a Valor and not on/off like a furnace. In fact, too large a heat output will overheat your room. Many competitive brands promote large BTU input models playing the old "Bigger is Better" game. With a truly efficient zone heater, this is simply not the case.
Why is adjustable heat output so important?
All Valor heaters are designed with variable heat controls that you can turn down very low if required. You'd be surprised how many competitive brands can only be turned down a little or not at all. Valor's wide operating range and ease of adjustment allows you to match the Heat Output to the heat required providing maximum use and enjoyment. A big BTU fireplace with limited turn down is just another furnace and will not provide a Comfort Zone.
What is the Valorstat and how is it better than a thermostat?
The ValorStat is a new control feature available on selected Valor models. It automatically adjusts the burning rate to match the heat requirement of the room. You select the temperature level you desire on the conveniently located dial and the heater regulates itself, burning as low or high as needed to keep an even room temperature. By contrast, conventional thermostats regulate heat by turning burners on and off rather than up or down. This results in fluctuating room temperatures and a fire effect that is unnatural and erratic to say the least. The ValorStat feature is exclusive on Valor.
How does radiant heat figure in the Comfort Zone?
From the warming rays of the sun to the embers of a hot open fire or glowing stove, people have enjoyed the soothing sensation of radiant heat since the beginning of time. Valor fireplaces are designed to provide the maximum amount of forward focussed radiant heat, up to 40% of total heater output. By comparison, a central warm air furnace delivers no radiant heat. Besides the superior feel of the heat, advantages of radiant heat include - faster heat, warmer floors, walls, and furniture. It is also quieter as there is no fan running. You will also feel more comfortable at lower room air temperature settings, providing further opportunity for energy savings.
Should my gas fireplace have a blower?
Valor fireplace heaters are so effective at producing both radiant and convected heat that a blower will not do a lot to improve your comfort. Blowers cannot deliver radiant heat nor will they influence air circulation much beyond the immediate area of the fireplace.
