Guess I'll start.
Hey guys, after awhile of farming Act 2, I finally tried Act 3, and as of yesterday, soloed it no problem. Now farming, I am dying too often.
My current strat is to keep warcry and battle rage up, bash a guy a few times, then run around rending, using revenge as its up and popped ignore bliss when needed. This works well a lot of the times, but not always.
Some things seem to hit too hard, and I cannot tell what res is too low. With both shouts active and no berserker * I don't use it.... I'd rather the heal* I'm around 65% armor and 80k dps, bash buff not included.
Please critique my gear/skills. I know the belt and LS passive suck, but It makes me feel a bit safer. Maybe I don't need it. I don't know. Budget is only 6 mil til I get paid/find something decent, but this may not be a gear problem.
Last question, what exact;y does armor do, what does physical resistance do, and how are they all related?
Edit: The jewelry. They suck. I am trying to wait for 1.05 affixes to buy new ones but if a good deal presents itself...
Edit 2: Does rend stack? IE, can i rend a champ 3 times? Will it tick 3 interdependently times, each for full value? Do I get LS for each case of rend? Does base LS stack with rends LS?

WotB is the best skill we have to kill elite packs. You´re at a huge disadvantage if you don´t use it unless you have superb gear, but even then it´ s the go to skill, if only because it gives us crowd control immunity.
Yes your armor is a bit low. You could get away with it if you used sprint and not engage into close combat that much. There´s better people at helping with gear, but consider getting strength wherever you can. More damage means monsters die faster, you take less damage. Strength gives you armor, less damage taken.
AS for your questions:
1. armor reduces all damage you take
2. physical resistance reduces just physical damage. Examples of physical damage are most normal monster smashes, blood clan impalers, desecrator.
They´re related in the sense of producing the resulting damage you take. Barbarians (and monks) have 30% damage reduction, then the monster damage is reduced by armor, resistance and melee/ranged/elite damage reduction.
So does armor reduce elemental damage too? How does it work? Additive or multiplicative?
My only problem with wotb is that I really dont have trouble on packs. Its on certain white mobs. The maloks, the heralds of pest that spit out green !@#$. With revenge, I can stand in molten while spamming rend/cleave at full hp, or close. I guess I could switch ignore pain for wotb but... I'll have to do some testing. Survivability is my focus atm.
Thanks for the post

Lol you kiddie poolers and your "dying too much" problems. Like Chrono Triggr said, use leap (iron impact) so you can escape walls and have 300% armor for 4 seconds every 10 seconds. Also, I would never use the lifesteal passive over a real defensive one like nerves of steel or superstition.
Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.

Dr. Farid Kakavand's Ratings
He is an excellent doctor and awesome person . I am so happy he is my family doctor.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][2661137].votes_count ]]
He used to be a good doctor when he first arrived in Keswick a few years ago. He took his time to find out what was wrong with you and then went ahead to prescribe you something. For the last 4 years, he is too busy to hear what you have say and basically spends only a few minutes with me after I have been waiting at least 30 - 1 hour in the waiting room.
Every time I go there, I am left with a bad taste in my mouth that he didn't really address my health issues. I am always angry after visiting him. what happened to the oath that he took to save lives? It seems its all about money now.
I changed to another doctor a few months ago.
If you are really ill, find another doctor who cares about his patients. Dr Kakavand doesn't

OMG!!!! I have never seen doctor like him. He is charging for every single job and send all the prescription to his wife who has a pharmacy beside him.
Somebody have to stop him !!!!!

I am blessed having found Dr.Kakavand. He has been our Family Doctor for the past 6 years. contrary of what been posted about him not caring, I think he cares a lot. He listens and I must add he did help one of my family members to go off the oxycontin.

Seems he places "addicts" at the top of the list, rather then get the problem rectified, its easier to prescribe a drug to fix the problem, then perhaps go to a specialist and seek farther into the problem! New technology today says you should take the time and re-evaluate the problem!! Now he gets a wingbat in there, Dr. Osoro to handle the fact he is not taking new patients... yes we are in Keswick, we are not degenerates with addictions, we are humans with a reason to live and live life healthy! Sad sad sad... I used to like Dr. Kakavand, even the locals tell me he has changed, well my husband goes there and I want him to live forever, I dont think kakavand cares really!

He is very thorough and has an excellent manner about him. He actually cares about his patients.

I am grateful that Dr. Kakavand is our family doctor - he is smart, caring and kind. A difficult combination to come by. An excellent diagnostician with great listening skills. He treats the whole person and seems very sincere about maintaining health not just treating problems. He's a gem!
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][1375169].votes_count ]]
He didn't listen to what I was saying. He explained the symptoms I had as something due to recent weight gain even though I told him the problems predated the small weight gain. (and still exist now that i have lost weight) I am not sure if he is distracted every time I am there if he really doesn't know what to do. I do not trust him for the most part.

Thanks Sharon. I feel my grandmother showed enormous courage moving from the genteel life of a piano teacher to the rough unknown prairie but she did it for love, the best of reasons. My strongest memories of her are of a feisty little woman who always encouraged me to never give up. She even had a gesture – clenched fists and movements like a boxer – to go along with her advice.
"Without initiation rites, we create a society that is run on the death instinct. Adolescents need a way to channel their newfound intensity; if they do not learn to celebrate life's mystery, they will be condemned to act out its tragedy. In adolescence, we are poised on the very edge of life and we need certain rituals to ground us." - Valerie Andrews

In the heart of Emptiness there is a mysterious impulse, mysterious because there is actually nothing in the heart of Emptiness (for there is nothing in Emptiness, period). Yet there it is, this mysterious impulse, the impulse to…create. To sing, to shine, to radiate; to send forth, reach out and celebrate; to sing and shout and walk about; to effervesce and bubble over, this mysterious exuberance in the heart of Emptiness.
Emptiness empties itself of emptiness, and thus becomes Full, pregnant with all worlds, a fruition of the infinite impulse to play, hidden in the heart of your own deepest Self. If you rest in the Witness, settle back as I-I, and look very carefully for the Looker – if you turn within right now and try to see the Seer – you won't see anything at all, for you cannot see the Seer. All you will find is a vast Freedom and Emptiness, in which the entire Kosmos is now arising. Out of the pure Emptiness that is your deepest suchness, all worlds arise. Your own impulse of looking has brought forth the universe, and here it resides in the vastness of all space which is to say, in the purity of your own primordial awareness. This has been obvious all along; this you have known all along. Just this, and nothing more, just this.

Millenial Media's Q3 report highlights spending shifts in mobile.
Technology and finance advertisers moved aggressively into mobile in Q3 2011.
According to mobile advertising platform Millennial Media's quarterly SMART Report, the technology vertical grew 687 percent year over year, while finance grew 356 percent. While tech is still a relatively small portion of the company's total ad traffic, its emergence highlights growing adoption of mobile media, according to Mack McKelvey, senior vice president, Millennial Media.
This chart, courtesy of Millennial, shows year-over-year spending growth by vertical, between Q3 2010 and Q3 2011:
Finance became the company's top vertical for advertising for the first time last quarter. The report is based on data from Millennial's 23 billion monthly ad requests.
Thirty eight percent of the company's financial ad traffic came from insurance companies, followed by 22 percent for financial services such as investing or loans. Banks and credit cards each accounted for 18 percent of ads served.
In addition to banks pushing credit cards for back-to-school shopping, banks and insurance companies had a lot to talk to consumers about last quarter, including hurricanes, storms and earthquakes, McKelvey says.
"In some areas, the power was out for days, so mobile was the only way to reach people," McKelvey points out.
There are other contributing factors to the increase in financial-sector mobile advertising, according to Millennial Media. For example, 80 percent of people accessing financial information or apps via mobile own a smartphone, more than double the general mobile population. The mobile finance audience is also 76 percent more likely to own a tablet or e-reader.

I also recommend the PREGNANCY MIRACLE GUIDE as the ULTIMATE pregnancy/women's health resource!
An umbilical hernia happens when there is a small hole or defect in the abdominal wall. This small hole allows tissue to protrude through the umbilical area. Umbilical hernias are common in newborns. The umbilical hernia may look like an "outie" belly button and is usually more noticeable when a baby is crying. Umbilical hernias in children are usually not something to worry about. The defective hole normally closes on its own by the time a child is two years old. However, when an adult has an umbilical hernia, the defect does not just heal on its own and may require surgical repair.
Most umbilical hernias are congenital, meaning you have had the hernia since birth. The hernia may have been small or not caused any noticeable symptoms. Pregnancy or excessive weight gain can put stress on the defective or weak area of the abdominal wall causing the hernia to become more noticeable. Many adults have umbilical hernias that go unnoticed because the defect is so small that tissue can not pass through it. Once the hole gets large enough that tissue can pass through, the hernia can become painful and you may see bulging around the umbilical area.
In most cases it is best to wait until you are no longer pregnant before attempting to repair an umbilical hernia. However, if an umbilical hernia becomes incarcerated, meaning that tissue remains trapped in the defective area and can't be pushed back in, it will need to be repaired immediately. When a hernia becomes incarcerated the trapped tissue will not receive blood and will eventually die. An incarcerated hernia is generally painful and requires urgent surgical repair. As long as the umbilical hernia is not incarcerated, it is usually best to wait to have it repaired. If the hernia is bulging and uncomfortable, rest and gently massage the hernia until the bulging goes back in. If the umbilical hernia is painful or cannot be pushed back in seek immediate medical attention.

NAGAMI Kumquat - tons of flowers, no fruit :( Please help...
Hi there,
I have a kumquat tree that is in about a 15-20 gallon pot. I got it last year. It had tons of blossoms, but only produced about 15 fruit, and they are very small. What am I doing wrong? My friend has a way smaller kumquat tree in a 5 gallon pot and she had about 50-75 large fruit on it. Please advise. Thanks.
Nagami Kumquat's fruit are naturally small, about the size of the end knuckle on a thumb. For all citrus trees, including Nagami Kumquats, only 1- 2 percent of the flowers will develop into fruit. Never let a container kumquat tree become root bound nor dry. Kumquats are heavy feeders, needing to be fertilized a minimum of once a month, several fertilizer applications normally provide excellent results.
Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm familiar with the size and shape of Kumquats, I was just saying mine are smaller than normal.
Anyone have any particular fertilizer they recommend? Are those All-Purpose Plantfood good enough (24-8-16) or something like that)?
Wondering if I should repot it using different soil. I think I used the wrong soil when i repotted it into the pot it's in. I garden soil (not potting soil with perilite) and cactus mix.
Any other advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hi scuzzy
Just wondering how is your kumquat tree doing? Any success with big harvest? If not try repotting into bigger pot and then apply miracle-gro for plant and citrus spike in the spring and fall. Say prayer and hope for the best. I have some kind of kumquat tree as a gift and it has been fruiting twice a year. I made so many jars of jelly, made cookies and stirred in hot green tea. I still have a bucket in my big freezer to make jelly. Here is a picture to share with you. Hope yours will get some fruits soon.

Oh, what a beautiful morning!
... not that busy but I found a spot I liked and settled in, the only one there again. There was no cell service and I was a little nervous, so eventually I decided I should at least ask about registering. Glad I did! The power hook ups that looked like they were history were on and the wifi worked if I set the laptop on the dashboard. Before it was dark there were at least five other campers set up for the night. Who could ask for more! ...

We stopped in Plains to pick up a couple of quiches (what do I know) for hosts. It wasn't a simple chore, since finding a parking place for Fiona in a small town is a bit of a challenge, but Ol' Eagle Eye, Sister Mary Mean-a-Lot aka Lynn, spotted a perfect spot. It turned out to be less than a block away from our pickup point.

Bulgarian Film 'Color of the Chameleon' Acclaimed in Sweden
Bulgarian film "The Color of the Chameleon" of director Emil Hristov has been shown with great success during the 23rd edition of the prestigious Stockholm film festival.
The Bulgarian news agency BTA reports that the movie has been met with huge interest and has attracted a large audience.
The Swedish film critics' elite have talked about "The Color of the Chameleon" as a creative and extraordinary black comedy with elements of surrealism and of a thriller, while Hristov's work has been praised for originality, sophistication, and style.
Emil Hristov was known until now as one of the best Bulgarian cameraman (movies such as Zift) and this is his debut as director. The film grabbed the grand prize at the Bulgarian "Golden Rose" festival in the fall and had successful showings in Thessaloniki, Toronto, and Washington.

A passive daylight-coupled display having an LCD panel, a diffuser, a turning film behind the LCD panel, and a curved reflector behind the turning film. For passive backlighting, the diffuser transmits daylight to the reflector, which reflects the daylight to the LCD panel through the turning film and provides for substantially uniform distribution of the daylight on the LCD panel for backlighting it. The turning film has prisms with chaos for an improved viewer experience.

an LCD panel having a top side and a bottom side;
a turning film located behind the LCD panel, wherein the turning film has a chaos of 0.2� to 10� in the prisms;

a curved reflector having a top side adjacent the back edge of the diffuser and having a bottom side adjacent the bottom side of the LCD panel,
wherein the diffuser transmits daylight to the reflector, and the reflector reflects the daylight to the LCD panel and provides for substantially uniform distribution of the daylight on the LCD panel.

a diffuser having a front edge adjacent the top side of the LCD panel and having a back edge; and
a reflector having a top side adjacent the back edge of the diffuser and having a bottom side adjacent the bottom side of the LCD panel, wherein the top side and bottom side of the reflector are each substantially planar,
wherein the diffuser transmits daylight to the reflector, and the reflector reflects the daylight to the LCD panel and provides for substantially uniform distribution of the daylight on the LCD panel.
22. The display of
Sunlight viewability of digital displays, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), is increasing in business importance as such displays become more ubiquitous. Advertisers desire the ability to use digital media in outdoor environments, and consumers would like their electronics to be usable everywhere. Current solutions to the outdoor sunlight visibility problem fall short because of insufficient display brightness or excessive power consumption and its resultant heat load. For example, one solution achieves 2000 nits brightness by using 720 three watt LEDs in a 40 inch display, which requires a liquid cooling system to dissipate the 2.1 kW of heat. Also, the display with backlight weighs 110 lbs., a significant amount of weight for such a display.
A passive daylight-coupled display, consistent with the present invention, includes an LCD panel having a top side and a bottom side, a diffuser having a front edge adjacent the top side of the LCD panel and having a back edge, and a curved reflector having a top side adjacent the back edge of the diffuser and having a bottom side adjacent the bottom side of the LCD panel. The display also includes a turning film located behind the LCD panel, and optionally a reflective polarizer located between the LCD panel and the turning film. The diffuser transmits daylight to the reflector, and the reflector reflects the daylight to the LCD panel and provides for substantially uniform distribution of the daylight on the LCD panel. The turning film gathers light from the diffuser and directs it toward the LCD panel. The turning film also has chaos in the prisms for an improved viewer experience.
The accompanying drawings are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification and, together with the description, explain the advantages and principles of the invention. In the drawings,
Using sunlight as a source of illumination for a display helps to save electrical power, enabling a more energy-efficient display. The daylight-coupled backlight provides a daylight-viewable solution that is potentially solar powered and also produces a high brightness display. At night-time or other low ambient light conditions, the backlight can be supplemented with an active light source. By using the sun to light the backlight, it saves a substantial power load and enables an energy efficient display, daylight viewable, that is potentially completely solar powered and also produces a high brightness display.
Daylight-coupled LCD devices can be used in a variety of outdoor settings for digital signage, traffic signage, or to display of other types of information. The devices can be housed in a kiosk or other types of enclosures depending upon, for example, a desired use of the devices. The devices can be used on bus shelters, sides of buildings, trucks, trailers, or other outdoor locations for advertisement or other information presentation. They can also be used in a variety of indoor settings to display information or advertisement in store-front windows, high-ambient mall courtyards, or other locations. They can also be used inside of a car to display information on the center stack, driver cluster or dashboard. They can be mounted on the backside of the headrests or from the ceiling to display entertainment within a vehicle. The devices can also be in a smaller form factor as well�display diagonals less than 7 inches. The display panels in the devices can be arranged in a portrait mode or a landscape mode for display of information. They may also be set side by side to simulate a larger display or make for a group of displays.
The term LCD is used here to represent the variety of liquid crystal panels currently available on the market and those that may become available in the future, including, but not limited to conventional TN panels; PVA, MVA or OCB mode panels; and transflective panels. Additionally, the LCD panels may be substituted with other backlit light-valve type displays, other backlit electronic displays, electronic signage, or static signage. Also, the LCD panels may be substituted with solar panels to enhance the amount of daylight upon the solar panels or allow the solar panels to be configured in varying orientations, or the LCD panels may be substituted with other devices requiring illumination. The backlight can be designed to be collapsible so that it functions as a more conventional backlight in its collapsed state, but by means of hinges, springs, or slides, rearranges to form the backlight described in the present specification. Additionally, it may be designed to be collapsible for purposes of transportation or storage.
Preferably, highly reflective surfaces are used throughout the cavity. However, optionally, diffusers may be added at various locations, such as behind the LCD panel, for example, to hide seams or interfaces between components. All diffusers in the system, including the entrance aperture, may be passive such as bead coated films and bulk diffuser plates, or they may be actively controlled such as PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) films or plates, for example. The diffusers may be uniform in characteristics or non-uniform, such as printed dot extractors, variable density films or plates, or other patterned systems.
Examples of various passive and hybrid backlights are disclosed in the following: U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/330,155, entitled �Passive and Hybrid Daylight-Coupled Backlights for Sunlight Viewable Displays, and filed Dec. 8, 2008; and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/492,166, entitled �Passive and Hybrid Daylight-Coupled N-Stack and Collapsible Backlights for Sunlight Viewable Displays, and filed Jun. 26, 2009, both of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.
Passive Daylight-Coupled Display
As represented by arrow 18, diffuser 12 transmits at least some daylight to reflector 16 and possibly to other components. Reflector 16 then reflects the light upon LCD panel 14 in order to provide backlighting for the LCD panel. Device 10 is designed with a depth 22 and curvature of reflector 16 such that reflector 16 provides for substantially uniform distribution of the reflected daylight onto LCD panel 14. With a circular shape for reflector 16, meaning that it forms a portion of a circle, the ratio of the height 20 to depth 22 is approximately 1 to 1. In other embodiments, particular if a turning film is used behind the LCD panel, the ratio of the height of the LCD panel to the depth of the diffuser is approximately 1 to 0.5. A stacked reflector configuration can realize a preferred ratio of 1 to 0.375. In device 10, and in other daylight-coupled LCD devices, diffuser 12 is preferably positioned at an angle of approximately 90� with respect to LCD panel 14, although the angle can be greater than 120� and can also be less than 90�.
By using daylight for passive backlighting, the device can be used during the daytime in outdoor settings without the need for an active light source, thus saving power and reducing heat load on the device. To maintain brightness, an active light source can be used during cloudy conditions. If brightness under cloudy or dim ambient lighting is not a concern, then an active light source is not needed. In addition to using sunlight, the device 10 can use other external light sources for passive backlighting, such as streetlights, spotlights, projectors, or overhead fluorescent lights. All the external light sources can be combined and concentrated for the passive backlight using, for example, lenses, light pipes, mirrors, or ambient light concentrators.
As represented by arrow 38, diffuser 32 transmits at least some daylight to reflector 36 and possibly to other components. Reflector 36 then reflects the light upon LCD panel 34 in order to provide backlighting for the LCD panel. Device 30 is designed with a depth 42 and curvature of reflector 36 such that reflector 36 provides for substantially uniform distribution of the reflected daylight onto LCD panel 34. Having a deeper diffuser cavity, such as that shown in device 30 in comparison to device 10, can allow the diffuser to collect more light for the reflector and backlighting of the LCD panel, thereby enabling a wider viewing angle both horizontally and vertically. With a parabolic shape for reflector 36, meaning that it forms a portion of a parabola, the ratio of the height 40 to depth 42 can be approximately 1 to 3.
Although circular and parabolic shapes are shown for the reflectors, other shapes are possible, including a three-dimensional (3D) curvature or a straight reflector. Also, the shape of the reflector can be variable. For a shaped reflector, it is preferably shaped as a section of a parabola and is arranged with edges meeting the diffuser and LCD panel at an angle of approximately 20� to 40� to axes normal to the diffuser and LCD panel.
The diffusers in daylight-coupled LCD devices, such as diffusers 12 and 32, can be implemented with, for example, one or more of the following: beaded gain diffusers; microstructured gain diffusers; diffuser sheet materials such as bulk diffusers (particle filled, phase separated, or microcavitated); or diffuser plates. The diffuser can optionally be domed or faceted for collecting or concentrating the daylight or other light source. Diffusers 12 and 32 preferably block ultraviolet (UV) light, and reflectors 16 and 36 preferably transmit infrared (IR) light to avoid heat loading on the LCD device. The diffusers can provide sufficient diffusion of light to achieve uniform backlighting, and the diffusers typically transmit as least 50%, more preferably at least 70%, and most preferably at least 90% of the visible light incident upon them, while exhibiting low clarity as measured by the Haze-Gard product from BYK-Gardner USA. The diffuser shape may be flat, curved as for a dome or partial dome, or faceted. Additional collector optics and protective optics may be used over the diffuser, such as light collectors and light concentrators under protective domes. These light collection or concentration optics can be separate components over the diffuser or contained within an integrated unit with the diffuser.
The reflectors in daylight-coupled LCD devices, such as reflectors 16 and 36, can be implemented with, for example, one or more of the following: a polymeric multilayer interference reflector film such as the Enhanced Specular Reflector (ESR) film from 3M Company; a reflective polarizer; a reflective polarizing film; MIRO or MIRO Silver from Anomet, Inc., Ontario, Canada; or the silvered or aluminized Mylar product from E. I. DuPont DeNemours and Company. The films or reflective surfaces may optionally be affixed to supporting structures.
Reflective polarizers are films that reflect one polarization preferentially over the other polarization. Reflective polarizer types include multilayer-based, blend or dispersed phase based, fiber-based, cholesteric liquid crystal-based, wire grid, or Brewster-angle effect polarizers. Specifically, multilayer reflective polarizers can be implemented with the following: DBEF (brightness enhancement film), such as DBEF-Q, D-400, and D2-400, all from 3M Company; Advanced Polarizing Film (APF), such as the LEF-D product, also from 3M Company; and other multilayer variants. These multilayer reflective polarizers can also provide for haze by having a low haze surface or matte finish. The DBEF-D400 film has 60% haze in both polycarbonate layers, and the stack as a whole demonstrates a haze of 72%+/−10%. The LEF-D product has 12% haze in one of the polycarbonate layers and 20% in the other, and the overall haze of stack is 41%+/−10%. A specific example of blend or dispersed phase reflective polarizers include DRPF, also from 3M Company. Brewster Angle reflective polarizers can be built using the �pile of plates� phenomenon. A preferred reflective polarizer is APF, which includes both the specular APF and LEF-D, which is APF sandwiched in-between two hazy polycarbonate films.
Use of a polymeric multilayer interference reflector film that transmit IR light leads to a decrease in the temperature of the LCD panel since the panel does not end up receiving and absorbing that IR light. Reflectors 16 and 36 preferably transmit infrared (IR) light to avoid heat loading on the LCD device. The reflector can optionally be faceted or coated to provide for particular visual effects and can also optionally include a bead coated or microstructured coated film or a low haze coating. The reflector films can be supported by, for example, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or other plastic plate, polymeric multilayer interference reflector film on stainless steel, or aluminum if additional mechanical support is desired. If a metal support or other material that reflects IR is used to support the polymeric multilayer interference reflector film, then it is preferable to reject IR before it enters the backlight cavity, for example using an IR mirror film, such as the Prestige or Crystalline film products from 3M Company, on or under the diffuser plate, to reject the incident IR light. The reflectors preferably have a smooth curved shape when in use, although a curved shape having non-smooth portions can also be used. The reflectors are preferably better than 80% reflective in the visible, and more preferably 90% or higher, and most preferably 98% or higher reflectivity. An example of such a film is the ESR film.
The side panels in daylight-coupled LCD devices, such as panels 24, 26, 44, and 46, can be implemented with, for example, the following: polymeric multilayer interference reflector film; a silvered reflector such as the Silverlux product from 3M Company; a Lambertian reflector; a reflective fabric; or a diffuser plate. The panels can be implemented with separate components. Alternatively, the side panels and reflector can be formed together as a 3D cavity such as with a thermoformed reflector cavity.
The diffuser, reflector, and side panels in daylight-coupled LCD devices can be held together with a frame, for example. The components of the daylight-coupled LCD device can be adjacent one another by being in direct contact, by being connected through one or more other components such as a frame, or by being held next to one another or attached to one another. Adjacent components can optionally include an air gap between them.
Devices 10 and 30, and other daylight-coupled LCD devices, can include additional films on the front of the LCD panel. Examples of those additional films include the following: a shatter protection film such as the anti-splinter film product from 3M Company; an anti-reflective coating or film; an anti-glare film; an IR filter film such as the Prestige or Crystalline film products from 3M Company; and as a single film with multiple functionalities. Likewise, additional films may be used directly on or under the diffuser plate to provide UV protection, IR protection, shatter protection, and color correction. A single film with multiple functionalities can also be used on or under the diffuser plate. Additional films could also be included on the back of the LCD panel, either near, adjacent, or in contact with it. Examples of these films include the following: reflective polarizer film such as the DBEF product from 3M Company; DBEF with a diffuse adhesive; and microreplicated films such as prismatic films or engineered diffusers, or combinations thereof.
Daylight-Coupled Backlight with Turning Film
The following are examples used to implement the components of device 50. LCD panel 56 includes the exemplary panels described above. Diffuser 52 can be implemented with, for example, an Astra Clarex Diffuser Plate (product nos. DR-50C, 60C, 70C, 75C, 80C, 85C, and 90C), from Astra Products, Inc., Baldwin, N.Y.; the DR-90C diffuser plates can have a transmissivity of approximately 90% and are preferred, although diffusers with a lower transmissivity can also be used. Reflective polarizer 58 includes the exemplary reflective polarizers described above. Reflector 54 can be implemented with diffuser providing diffusion in substantially one direction laminated or otherwise affixed to polymeric multilayer interference reflector film or the LEF or LEF-D products.
The diffuser providing diffusion in substantially one direction is preferred to achieve uniform image output from top to bottom of the device 50. Diffusion in one direction can be obtained by utilizing micro- and nano-fibers embedded in a polymer matrix of different refractive index. The micro- and nano-scale fibers have average diameter from 50 nm to 30 microns with random distribution, preferably from 200 nm to 5 microns. The fibers are preferably oriented in horizontal direction in the display device 50 so as to spreading incoming light in vertical direction to homogenize the displayed image from top to bottom. The diffuser can be made using a mixture of two or more transparent polymers with different refractive indices. Preferably the two or more polymers has index difference larger than 0.03, more preferably larger than 0.05. In one embodiment, a diffuser film providing diffusion in substantially one direction was made via melt extrusion coating process using polypropylene (refractive index of 1.49) and polystyrene (refractive index of 1.58) at compositions that can range from 90 wt:10 wt to 10 wt:90 wt (PP:PS), preferably from 30 wt:70 wt to 50 wt:50 wt. The melt coating process was carefully controlled such that the resulting diffuser film had a spreading ratio (MD:TD) ranging from 1:1.5 to 1:10, preferably from 1:1.8 to 1:5 (MD:TD). Alternatively, the light spreading diffuser (LSD) providing diffusion in substantially one direction can be achieved using a holographic diffuser film with spreading ratio ranging from 1:1.5 to 1:10, preferably from 1:1.8 to 1:5 (MD:TD). This LSD film is available from Luminit, Co. (California), Wavefront Technology, Inc (California), or Edmund Optics, (New Jersey).
Turning film 60, in a preferred embodiment, has the following features: prisms made from Accentrim Resin material from 3M Company; a prism refractive index n=1.4 to 1.7; a 0.005 inch thick (arbitrary thickness) clear polyester backing; prisms having angles of 50� to 80� referring to the internal angle 62, as shown in
Refractive index and prism angle combine to adjust the dominant angle at which light exits the display. Preferably, the refractive index and prism angle are adjusted so that the exit direction (peak brightness) is normal or near normal to the display, although non-normal exit angles can be preferred, such as when the display is above or below the viewer. Alternatively, the combination of prism refractive index and prism angle can be selected so that the peak brightness is within 10� of normal to the display or greater than or equal to 10� normal to the display. The amount of chaos in the film is adjusted to soften the cut-off angle of the exiting light cone, which improves the viewer experience. Too little chaos results in a sharp cut-off and higher peak brightness, whereas too much chaos results in a very soft cut-off and much lower peak brightness.
The components of device 50 can, alternately, be implemented with other types of diffusers, reflectors, and turning films. For example, the back reflector may alternatively be selected to be highly diffusive, for example, using the LEF product from 3M Company. In such a case, the curved back reflector may be segmented into two or more flat (substantially planar) sections, comprising, for example, a back reflector 74 and a bottom reflector 72 to make a device 70 as illustrated in
Back reflector 74 and bottom reflector 72 may be connected by a curved reflector 76. The curvature of curved reflector 76 is preferably selected to minimize any visual artifacts of the intersection between back reflector 74 and bottom reflector 72. The curvature of reflector 76 may be selected to be zero. Reflectors 72, 74, and 76 can be implemented with the exemplary materials described above for the reflector in device 50. Alternatively, other materials for reflectors 72, 74, and 76 include a polystyrene plates, white acrylic plates, white Styrofoam material, or any material with a highly reflective diffuse surface.
The components of devices 50 or 70 can be held together with a frame as described above. Devices 50 or 70 can also include opposing side walls as described above and implemented with, for example, polymeric multilayer interference reflector film or semi-specular mirror film. Devices 50 or 70 can also optionally include the additional films, features, and components as described above for devices 10 and 30 and other daylight-coupled LCD devices. For example, devices 50 and 70 can include internal light sources, such as LEDs, for backlighting the display in dim ambient lighting conditions or to supplement the passive backlighting, and examples of internal light sources in a passively backlit display are described in the applications referenced above.

I'm trying to build a partial e-herms where my system is partly gas and partly electric. This is the beginning of an eventual switch to an all electric computer controlled herms. Currently, I'm heating my HLT over gas, but I'd like to add a heating element so I can control the temperature during the mash. Since I don't have a 240V outlet with enough space around it, I'd like to install the highest power element possible that I can eventually switch out to a 5500W element when I move to a house with an outlet for it. I'd wire a new outlet up myself, but I'm renting, and I don't think my landlord/roommate would appreciate it very much. Any suggestions for 120v heating element that can be swapped when I'm ready? This would be a weldless addition.
I was running a gas/electric in the garage awhile back and I used a 120v 1650w heating element in the rims tube. If you have a 20a 120v circuit you could get away with a 2000w element max. When you say "swapped", if you mean same hole size as a 5500w, then yes all screw in residential hot water heating elements are standard.
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the response.

Three Detroit men were accused for their roles in the theft of a $20,000 diamond from a Brookfield jewelry store on Friday, June 6.
Anthony Friend, 21, Bobby Savage, 24, and Camron Trimble, 19, were charged in Waukesha County Circuit Court with felony retail theft. Each man faces up to 10 years in prison and $25,000 in fines if convicted.
Savage and Trimble were additionally charged with attempting to flee and obstructing an officer, respectively. Both crimes carry a penalty of more jail time and a $10,000 fine.
According to the criminal complaint, Friend walked into the Brookfield branch of Kesslers Diamond Center and asked a sales clerk if he could inspect a two-carat diamond, worth $20,946, and a setting, worth $1,400, while Savage and Trimble idled outside in a parked car.
The clerk told police that Friend then grabbed the jewelry and ran out of the store toward the waiting vehicle.
A chase ensued, eventually resulting in the arrest of Savage and Trimble.
Friend exited the car and fled on foot during the chase and was not found when Savage and Trimble were taken into custody.
Police eventually located and arrested him near Vanderbilt Road, the complaint said. Friend said he ran because he was scared.
Officers allegedly discovered the ring but no diamond when they searched him.
"Why would I still have it? I'm caught," Friend said to police.
A search of the suspects' car revealed two pages of handwritten notes, with the addresses of several Kesslers locations, and the names and addresses of local jewelry outlets that sell Rolex watches, highlighted.
All three men are friends and have known each other for years, according to the complaint.
Friend, Savage and Trimble are being held at the Waukesha County jail on $15,000 cash bonds. If released, they would be barred from interacting with one another or contacting Kesslers.
Their preliminary hearing is scheduled for Thursday, June 12.

Charlotte Bobcats vs. New Orleans Hornets
New Orleans Hornets vs. Charlotte BobcatsWhen: Tonight, 7:30 p.m.Where: North Charleston ColiseumTickets: www.ticketmaster.com
College of Charleston basketball coach Doug Wojcik surveyed the scene Wednesday morning and couldnt help but smile and feel a sense of pride.
The Charlotte Bobcats were in the middle of a ball-handling drill and center Brendan Haywood and guard Matt Carroll were on the floor working on their skills.
Wojcik coached both players Carroll at Norte Dame and Haywood at North Carolina while he was an assistant.
The site of his two former pupils on John Kresse Court brought back a flood of memories for the new Cougars head coach.
Its amazing to see both of those guys out there after such a long time in the league, Wojcik said. To watch them grow as players on and off the court and to have had a small part in their development and success is a very rewarding feeling. And its been nice to catch up with them and see how theyre doing.
The Bobcats will take on the New Orleans Hornets tonight in an NBA preseason game beginning at 7:30 p.m. at the North Charleston Coliseum. Its the first exhibition game in Charleston since the LeBron James-led Cleveland Cavaliers played Charlotte before a sellout crowd in 2009.
Wojcik coached Carroll for two seasons at Notre Dame in 1999 and 2000. Carroll has been in the league 10 seasons, including eight with the Bobcats.
Matt has lasted in the league because he can really, really shoot the basketball, Wojcik said. He does one thing extremely well. Hes got good size at 6-6, and if you can shoot, you can stick in this league.
Haywood has had a steady career, playing his first nine seasons with the Washington Wizards. He spent the last two in Dallas, winning an NBA championship before the Mavericks waived him this past summer.
In the middle of the ball- handling drill, the 7-0, 265-pound Haywood spun off a teammate and scored easily, showing off his skills.
I should have been a point guard, Haywood joked to Wojcik.
Typical Haywood, Wojcik said.
Brendan has had a very successful career, Wojcik said. Hes been around a long, long time and been productive. Hes a big, fun-loving guy. Hes got a great sense of humor and always had a great personality. All the big guys want to handle the ball and think theyre point guards.
The Bobcats have plenty of familiar faces for South Carolina fans.
Starting guard Ramon Sessions played at Myrtle Beach High School, while assistant coach Brian Winters was a former All-American at South Carolina in the early 1970s under legendary coach Frank McGuire.
When I was in school, Id come to Charleston and have always loved the city, said Winters, a two-time NBA All-Star with the Milwaukee Bucks. (Former College of Charleston coach) Bobby Cremins and I have been friends a long time.

intelliflo VS3050 or Intelliflo VF or Intelliflo VS+SVRS
New to board. I want to replace single speed hayward 1.5 hp. I have 20,000 gal pool, salt generator, filter and solar panels. Pump runs on mechanical timer and solar on heliomatic control panel.
I've been told conflicting information from both sides that intelliflo VF not good with solar? Rumor has it that software is too smart for its own good. I want to be able to set time, know power consumption, flow/or speed and have other bells/whistles.
The vs apparantly does not come with controller built into pump. If you recommend this, can i use something like suntouch to control solar (to what extent-control temp, control solar/on or off and when), control diverter valve to recirc only or vacuum pool all in addition to pump.
The VS+SVRS has built in timer, tells power consumption and has other bells and whistles. Still may have to buy a controller box for solar and other things.
I willing to piece meal over time. Mainly i want to be able to save on cost of running pump. Advice greatly appreciated.
