Revlon Perfect Heat Hot Air Styler and Dryer Brush with Tourmaline Ceramic
Revlon Perfect Heat Hot Air Styler and Dryer Brush with Tourmaline Ceramic Reviews
Oh how I love thee!!!!
This has become my savior!!! I have a mix of wavy and curly hair. (Curly at my bangs and wavy the longer the strands get.) Oh does this do the job of a paddle brush and a blow dryer. I never thought that I would be one of those people that would say that I would like an all in one heating appliance. I have jumped ship from my very reliable and expensive flat iron. Although this is not infuse...read mored with tourmaline like my other appliances, this still does a magnificent job. I find that I can curl the bottom portion of my hair with just a slight twist of the wrist. This also has an ion button for those of us who cringe at the sight and even the "f" word, FRIZZ. I tend to use the bigger brush to straighten the curls. I did use the nozzle for a little while but that was when I couldn't find the brush and it was acting a regular blow dryer. If you like to make waves, use the thinner brush. Trying to get the curl out, use the bigger brush. I highly recommend this as it works really well and just like a regular blow dryer. It takes the place of two appliance. If you would still like straighter hair, you might want to use a flat iron also. Try this if you blow dry your hair regularly! — 3 years, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 15 of 21 people said helpful
Revlon Hot Air Brush
I love this! My hair is medium length and it's really a time saver to use one styling tool instead of having to use a curling iron too. Great price. — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 7 people said helpful
Love it.
I use this product every day. It is such a time saver and since I live in a small apartment, it is a major plus that it saves space No big blow dryer and brush for me! This is seriously all I need. — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

by Gabrielle Thorndyke Kick up the bass Jealous of all the bumpin' bass you hear in hip hop, rap, and EDM? Well you can put that deep, biting bass into your classic rock or Tejano music with an AudioControl Epicenter bass processor. Most satellite and factory radios compress and dial down bass response to protect flimsy factory speakers, so when you do add a subwoofer, there's no bass to play. The Epicenter will bring it back. AudioControl's legendary Epicenter bass processor maximizes the low-frequency power and punch of your bass system, whether it's a simple powered tube or a full-blown competition setup. Simply install this processor between your car's receiver and your outboard amplifiers, and hear what you've been missing. How does it do that? Sophisticated processing analyzes the incoming signal, restores low bass fundamental tones, and increases your bass response without stressing out your speakers. You can connect The Epicenter to any receiver with preamp outputs — its balanced inputs will reject noise from your car's electrical system. A subsonic filter removes extreme low bass from your signal so your amps and subs will play louder and cleaner, and a single band ParaBass bass equalizer lets you fine tune the bass. Just rotate the single knob on the included dash-mounted controller to control bass restoration — it's that simple. The Epicenter does a great job of pumping up digital music files or live recordings on disc, restoring low bass that's been lost to compression or poor recording. Plus, iPods and other MP3 players roll off low bass in order to make your headphones sound better. With one twist of a knob, the Epicenter restores these low frequencies, making your iPod sound better over your car's sound system. Important note: Connect The Epicenter between your receiver and amplifier, before any external crossovers.

Awesome!!! Written By Matt, Albany, OR on Thursday, December 18, 2014 I have an old Zapco Z100S2 190-watt amp that runs one 10" Rockford Fosgate sub bridged. It sounded OK... but it was just missing "something". After listening to it, a friend told me to get an Epicenter, so I bought an open-box and holy cow... it blew me AWAY! It was just what my system needed! The increase in bass response was amazing... no matter what I'm listening to I can just adjust the remote knob accordingly for just the perfect amount of bass. AudioControl simply makes an outstanding product, I also have an older 3XS crossover that is superb. And if you need to call them directly (like I did), they will go step-by-step with you to get your settings on the Epi just right, which can be a little confusing for the newcomer. Thanks Crutchfield and AudioControl for giving me that extra "something" that was missing from my music!!! Pros: Easy-to-follow directions and install Cons: None so far!!!
What are you waiting for! Get it! Written By mb, madison heights on Sunday, August 31, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) you can win a Bass competition playing nothing but music from the 1940's. This is the neatest car stereo product you will ever own! Don't pay any attention to anyone saying it won't do anything for today's music, It will make the modern music' s bass sound WICKED! anyway just get it and if you don't like it Crutchfield will let you return it. so there is nothing to loose! Pros: everything Cons: what cons?
Audio control Epicenter Written By Threcio, Tortola, British Virgin Islands on Friday, September 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This product is awesome. I have it connected to a 15 inch Kicker Comp and it pounds. I recommend the epicenter especially for songs that dont have much lows. This product really backs up its name.
mad bass Written By Anonymous, California on Monday, September 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This reproduces some crazy bass wow
This thing really works Written By JP, Schertz TX on Tuesday, March 27, 2012 I bought one of these in 1997 and asthetically it looks unchanged...Why change it if it works! Anyhow, my system included Orion NT Subs hooked up to an Orion 2250 bridged down to .5 ohm...serious bass for those who are unfamiliar with this Orion line of subs and amps. This epicenter would actually not sound good with extreme bass music or modern rock considering I already had more bass than the ear could handle. However, when playing 50s, 60s and 70s music this epicenter truly enhanced the bass response making the older music much more enjoyable. The epicenter works as advertised by taking the peak of each bass note and allowing your system to carry the bass note at its peak through a longer period of time before the bass note drops off. Pros: Works fantastic with music lacking good bass to begin with. My friends could hardly believe their ears when I turned up the epicenter to the Supremes! Cons: Does not sound good with extreme bass music (DJ Magic Mike, Techno Bass...etc...) but you can turn the epicenter all the way down when playing this type music and it will not affect any output. Literally, turning the knob all the way down is like turning it off.
AudioControl Epicenter Written By TurnHeading360, Tampa, FL on Wednesday, August 10, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It's so,so... I was expecting more. It's not doing anything really; the signal input is no different than the signal output. If I turn up the knob all it seems to do is just increase the volume level of the subs, I even degraded some songs from 320 to 196 just to see if the machine would fix anything...nothing. Maybe it's broken...who knows.
The best tool for anyone that loves bass! Written By CSR, Gadsden, AL on Friday, April 08, 2011 If you love bass, and I mean all aspects of bass reproduction, then there is absolutely no better component than this!

awsome bass Written By Aaron, Houston, Tx on Wednesday, October 06, 2010 This product is awsome. It gives your system that extra bass it is missing. It makes my two 10 in subs hit super hard. Every one that loves bass should have one. I recommend to everybody.
epic muzic Written By impressive Audio, Dallas tx on Monday, June 07, 2010 I have used the epic for about 14 years now it is a mager peace of any install I do if they wont mager bass but not only does it recovers bass but its also a line driver cuz most head units are 4-6 volts output to amp you can go inside and add volts directly to amp from 7.2 to 12.0 volt to give your amp maxx voltage output and a more solid frequincy and it also has ground isolations you can change for that unbearable ground noise O YEA it will dang near blow the trunk off if thats what you into I give it 10 thumbs up thanks...OGREDD
Restores low end Written By Old School, Florida on Monday, February 08, 2010 The epicenter is a vital part of your audio system if you listen to older (pre 1990's) recordings. It helps to restore the bass tracks that were removed by the sound labs. It works well to give a warm low end to cassette tapes, without sounding over amplified. I would recommend a subsonic filter at 20-25 hz.
Epicenter Written By MICHAEL, Henryetta, OK on Thursday, January 07, 2010 It did ad more bass, but dash mount control knob was more like a volume knob for bass which now is a very hard bass. Manual is not really clean or unit is not marked at what frequencies the control knob is adjusting like on their 4.1 EQ. The other adjust the width of the bass. I have it with a 25 Hz sub sonic filter using Alpine Rs in a ported to Alpine's Optimum Specs of 1.7 c.f. For me the bass hits to hard and not as musical, but maybe some of you guys like that. JVC head unit with EQ and Surround Sound adjustment does OK and just wanted to be able to restore what they said was lost bass, but it seemed harsh to me, not sure of Ipods etc with loss bass only use CDs FM some HD FM. A actual EQ would work better with marked frequencies and ability to know what your adjusting. It's a very hard hitting bass which is better if you used a EQ!
The Epicenter™ by AudioControl Written By Anonymous, Central Texas on Tuesday, September 01, 2009 I had one of these puppys way back when in 93' In a 85' Olds Cutlass Supreme Brougham. The bass that came out of those 10's with the 500 amp was unbeliveable, if I had the money to purchase another one of these I would gladly do so, the nob is so convienient and the effect is really noticable. Im glad to see the epicenter is still around and wish I still had mine....Thx Audio Control for the great memories :)
amazing Written By chip, lodi,ca. on Sunday, January 11, 2009 I installed this little guy cause so much of the music i listen is old rock and it just didn't have that low end bass like the new rock has ie: dio, aerosmith, led zepplin, montrose but this thing is amazing just a litttle turn of the knob and wow it is whole different song. i cant believe the difference it has made, so if your sick of listening to the only songs that bass on that cd try one of these and u will listen to all the songs, it works well on all music including rap and rock, thanks crutchfield.

The Coco Beach Hotel Krabi
Category: Hotels & Resorts
Location: Had Yao, Krabi
Located on the far end of Had Yao, Coco Beach Resort is tucked quietly among the tall coconut trees...
There is a wide variety of Phuket accommodation that caters for all requirements. Whether it is a luxury 5 star hotel on the beach, a backpacker style guest house in one of the party areas, or a villa that you are looking for there is plenty to choose from on the island.
Pricing varies across the island with the west coast traditionally being higher than the east although this trend is changing with the introduction of high end villas for rental in the eastern coastal areas in recent years. Lower cost accommodation suitable for budget travellers can normally be found in the west coast towns of Kata, Karon and Patong.
Prices also vary according to the season and some great bargains can be had during the rainy season when quite often there can be weeks of no rain at all.

I was expecting a nice sizable ring with a whimsical feel to it when I ordered this product. What I got was a cheap wire-looking ring that a 5-yr old might wear. It certainly looks cheap and too flimsy to be a real piece of jewelry. Returned it.
This ring looks much better on the website. When recieved, it was a major disappointment. It looks very flimsy and cheap. Please don't waste your money. It's going back.
Very poor quality and size was off. Did not match the picture. Disappointing.
The ring is definitely pretty in appearance but far less dazzle in person than in photo.
The sizing was way off and the ring is very uncomfortable.
Gave it to my friend for a gift. She loved it. I can't say enough about overstock.com
Finish was not shiny or even a nice matte. It was not true to size. I ordered a 6 fir my middle or pointer. ( i wear a 4 1/4 on my ring finger) it didn't even fit my ring finger (too small).
This ring is delicate looking but substantial and thick. I don't see the purpose for the one diamond. I could hardly find it actually. My only complaint would be that the dragonflies weren't continuous around, I guess because of the sizing change. It does not affect the look as that portion of the ring is between my fingers.

Fantasy Football Disagreement
Alright, I'd really like to get some opinions on this matter. A buddy of mine that I have been really good friends with for over 10 years and I have had a bit of a falling out. Any opinions would be much appreciated. I have asked many of my friends as well as mutual friends their opinion on the matter and all of them have sided with me so far, but I would like to get the opinions of those of you on the board that read this.
So last Friday night I get home from being out with my wife and am bored. In my bored state, I decide to try one time to log onto my buddy's fantasy football page. My very first guess turns out to be correct on his password and if only I could tell you what his password was. It was pretty funny and entertaining what his password turned out to be. So as a joke, I decide to accept a trade I had sent him. It was a VERY minor trade (Kyle Orton for Tim Hightower) neither of which are starters for either of us. The next day, I found it hilarious to send him a text telling him thanks for accepting the trade and that he made a good decision. Well, the guy ends up flipping out. The trade takes 3 days to go through so nothing had been finalized or anything like that, but the guy gets pissed. Well, I tell him maybe he needs to change his password and hint to him that I know what his password is. He flips out and tells me to f off. Knowing exactly what to do, I contact the league commissioner and have him veto the trade. I explain to him the situation, and he finds it funny, and I figure everything is over with. The next day my friend is texting me like nothing happened. Everything seems cool between us. Well then on Monday night, he sends an email out to the entire league basically calling me a cheater, saying that I was trying to screw over the entire league by accepting this trade for ****ing Tim Hightower (League Championship!!!) and says that he is refusing to pay his league dues which had not yet been collected. He then contacts the league manager and tells him the only way he will play is if I pay his dues. The league commissioner calls me and tells me what happened, tells me his understands and is on my side, and even offers to pay the league dues for my friend but say it was me that did it. I refuse because I am not going to give in. No damage was done to his team, he did not lose his matchup because of me, and he has no reason to quit the league. Well, needless to say, I am PISSED. The fact that a guy that is supposed to be one of my best friends goes off and emails the entire league trying to make me look like a cheater is basically like asking for a fist fight. Then for him to say the only way he will play is if I pay his league dues was just bull shit. Nothing I did affected his team in anyway. His RBs are Mendenhall, Peterson, Barber, Cadillac, and Hightower. Nothing I did messed up his team, and I got it fixed the very same day all of this happened. Honestly, I don't feel like I should just let this go. I'm not going to put up with someone making me out to be a cheater to a bunch of my friends and call me out in front of everybody. Also, I honestly believe he is doing this because he is pissed he is 0-2 and doesn't like his team. I think he is just using this as an excuse to not have to pay and be a cheap ass because he is pissed he is losing. So anyway, what are your opinions? Thanks in advance. |

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
Sounds to me like he's got something else going on and is looking for an excuse. No harm, no foul. You did nothing wrong, his team is exactly the same as it was before. This guy sounds like he's covering up for something else

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
I don't think you need to pay his dues,
However I don't think you should have been in his account and accepting trades for him either. Doesn't matter if you think it is a joke. I would have been very upset if someone had done that to me. Probably not to the extent he is, but very PO'D.

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
I agree with Grams. The dude has no case, but you were wrong to log into his account. I think whenever a password is needed it is considered to be private. You invaded somebody's privacy, IMO of course

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
I'm curious if you guys think the email he sent was okay. I mean I could let it slide if he sent it the day everything happened and did it in the heat of the moment. But the guy knew it was a joke, I had already apologized a ton, and then two days later he fires off this email to everyone basically making me out to be a cheat, unsportsmanlike, and disrespectful. It was pretty low IMO. And I have to agree with this as well. I mean I have tried explaining all of this to my buddy, and he claims he is over it, yet he still wants to use this as an excuse to not pay and to not play. Pretty messed up IMO. And rep to all of you I can for the responses. It definitely helps. |

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
IMO his e-mail was unneccessary and an attempt at drumming up support, I don't know what his motivation was but he needs to get away from the diva throne and talk to you about it. Just wait a few days and it'll simmer down.
You didn't cheat but the joke was in bad taste (you asked ), but seeing how there are safeguards against bogus trades and whatnot the guy could take that into consideration. His unhappiness is justified but if it were me I would have told you "uncool" and that would have been the end of it (after a few free beers of course....lol). Maybe your guy is embarrassed that you could think on it 5 minutes and guess your way into his team, dunno. Had the trade gone through the misdemeanor goes straight to a felony (kidding....kinda) though the trade could have been made in reverse to correct the problem, right? Bottom line we are talking Fantasy Football (!) here and that is no reason to get real on a friend as it seems he did with you. So, years later are you guys going to be the two old men in Central Park that scream at each other on a daily basis over checkers but wouldn't have it any other way? |

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
You owed up to your mistake and apologized. And from what I am gathering he accepted it and moved on.....until the email. If he accepted it and moved on he needs to shut his pie hole at this point. Maybe it started to bother him after and he stewed over it? That might explain and is somehat understandble it would bother him later on, but by gones are by gones at this point. That being said, I would pretty much take the high road but I would email the entire league as reply and state the facts, the intention of it, the fact you informed him and cancelled the trade and you notify the commish. And you apologized. I would get that out there to basically counter act the idea you're cheat. People make mistakes. You apologized, what are you supposed to do, beg him to be your friend? Hell no. At some point you just got to shrug your shoulders, knowing you did what you could to smooth things over.

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
I pretty much agree with what has been said. Me and a buddy of mine have a long standing rivalry of trying to guess each others passwords or if someone leaves their account open while they're not at the computer, free reign to make comments. It's usually something like "My name is Jake and I'm a big fat asshole". But I think either of us would be upset if the other person touched the roster or accepted a trade.
With that said, your friends being a little punk about the whole situation. There was no need send out an email to the entire league and this should not alleviate him from his responsibility to pay into the league. Edit: I thought I heard Hookem say that Texans Talk would change ahole to Bud Adams. I was looking forward to that.
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos. |

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
Is he a Cowboys fan? That might explain his unnecessary angst. They are a little edgy right now...
And yes, he's a douchenozzle for trying to quit the league over a practical joke. I think it's funny, but I have to disagree with the above posters 'privacy' issue. It's not like you were hacking his email to read private information, that would be invasion of privacy. You got no new knowledge from going into his FF account, his team is completely public info. It's a harmless joke, which turned out to effect nothing. If he quits the league, mail him a tampon and tell him you're sorry you did this joke at the wrong time of the month.

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
Now is he wrong in what he's done in retaliation? You bet, he seems to be very immature by not accepting this young mans apology. So, I'm going to agree with you, he's a closet Bony Homo fan, and should be euthanized

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
Well, he shouldn't be sounding off about not paying dues and everything, it's not that big of an issue.
However, as others have said, getting hacked into is a pretty crappy experience. With the dependency on computers of people these days, combined with the fact a lot of people have 'generic' passwords across all range of email and important accounts, I can see why he'd feel really bad about it...its as said before a breech of privacy. I guess I would compare it to the old style 'I read your diary' type of issue. But yea, two wrongs don't make a right, it just ruins FF. Oh, and for the record, I rate Hightower as a FF option.

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
And this was my argument. Since I didn't effect his team in a negative way, the argument was between my friend and I. No need to take it to a bunch of people in our fantasy league. Quote:
Your line at the end is hysterical! If I had read this early enough, I would have done so. Quote:
Hilarious line at the end! He would have to be a closet Bony Homo fan because as far as I can tell, he is the biggest Texans fan I know other than me. Very funny though! Quote:
As far as Hightower, he is only much of a fantasy football option because of the injury to Beanie Wells. He isn't your everyday starting RB or even an every week flex option. On the other hand, Orton could start for him every week considering how bad he is at QB (Derek Anderson & Mike Vick). Anyway, thanks a ton everyone for the comments. I will rep all of you I can for the comments as I really appreciate the advice. My buddy and I have actually worked it out in time to go tailgate tomorrow at the Texans game, although no tickets to the game, we will have tvs set up, and party on hoping/expecting to see a Texans victory. He ended up emailing me and apologizing for sending the email. He still is being weird though and has decided he doesn't want to play but the league commish is having someone else take over his team and pay the dues so no harm is done to the league. At least if he realizes emailing the league was a ***** move then I am cool. I wished he would have just kept playing in the league, but that is his choice. What's important is that we root on the Texans in the parking lot tomorrow while many of you root them on inside the stadium. |

Re: Fantasy Football Disagreement
I just can't see how anyone would feel your privacy was violated in this instance as it amounts to someone walking into your front yard and rearranging your garden gnomes. Then they say, 'nice front lawn you go there', and laugh at your reaction, then they put them back the way they were.

It doesn't matter if the password is "ABC", it's the principle of logging into someone elses account. At that point, you're not in the front yard, you've stepped across my doorstep. It's just not something I condone.

He's 0-2 so far, so yes that probably has more to do with it than anything.

Each of us perceives music individually.
It is impossible to compare how two different people perceive the same melody.
Kabbalah, the science about the soul, is also very individual.
Kabbalah is the method for the full revelation of each unique soul's potential,
placed in it at the moment of the creation of existence...
The music presented on this site embodies various variations of melodies
composed by Baal HaSulam, one of the greatest Kabbalists of all time,
as well as recorded songs of Kabbalists of the past.
The visitor will also find links to various related materials on music and Kabbalah. Special thanks to the Bnei Baruch World Academy for Kabbalah Studies for providing materials and recordings. |

Music and Kabbalah... What is the connection between them?
Everyone has a conception of what music is, but not everyone, by far, knows what Kabbalah is. Kabbalah is the science of the structure of the universe, the developmental laws of spiritual worlds and our world, and of the purpose of man. Through these graphs and schemes, Kabbalah talks of mans' feelings, his soul, and music. Music also talks to man in a language of feelings and emotions; therefore it is close to Kabbalah. What is music? It is an emotion, captured in its evolvement. Only music can deliver the process of transforming feelings through time. That is why the music of Kabbalah provides those who do not yet perceive the spiritual world with a certain analogy of the impression of spirituality that is felt by the Kabbalist. Kabbalistic music is written by great Kabbalists as an expression of their spiritual sensations. It is inherently located at a high spiritual level. This music delivers the listener to eternity and perfection. |

Our programmes in Metallurgy and Materials provide an understanding of how materials behave and how we can develop and use them to make the products we experience – from bricks to bridges to body scanners.
We use our understanding of materials at the atomic and microscopic levels to design, for example, new types of medical implants, new alloys and production methods for more energy-efficient engines, and better sports equipment to allow athletes to safely perform at their maximum levels.
The course offers a modular programme of study which normally leads to the award of Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) in three years.
Our programmes share a common first two years, with lectures, practicals and case studies developing your understanding in all areas of materials, including:
These are related to applications such as aerospace, automotive, sports, IT and biomedicine. You'll also study how to apply maths to solve engineering problems – a key requirement for many employers.
The third year advances your understanding of design, processing, failure and applications, along with management, whilst options allow you to gain specialist materials knowledge in areas that interest you most, such as aerospace, sports and biomaterials. You also take part in an individual research project.
Industrial experience We help and encourage you to gain work experience in external companies and/or University research groups in the summer vacations. Industrial experience increases your employability, helps you to choose your career path and increases your motivation to succeed in your chosen profession. Recently students have worked at Rolls-Royce plc and other UK companies but have also travelled as far afield as CSIRO in Australia to pursue particular research interests.
Generic skills-training, focusing on transferable skills and employability, is embedded throughout the course from the outset, and will ensure that you are equipped with the ICT, presentation, team-working and problem–solving skills which will enhance your employability on graduation.
'The balance between practical and theory work was excellent. I had so much choice of research areas for my final year project and then for my PhD. My future career prospects are numerous; a materials degree offers loads of opportunities. When I started the course I was amazed at how broad and relevant the subject is. The practical aspects of the course are great fun, particularly as we get to break things!' - Dr. Jane Berry, Texaco
'I found the Birmingham materials course diverse, we were able to choose modules which enabled me to tailor my degree to my strengths and interests. A materials degree leaves your career options open and gives you lots of transferable skills that you can use in almost any area of work in the future.' - Dr Stephanie Ankrah, Nike UK Ltd.
'From my perspective, the highlight of the MEng course was the 6 months spent in industry. I was working in a 'high technology' company called Hycalog which made high performance diamond tipped drill bits for the drilling industry. The placement allowed me to use the transferable skills components of the course, this enabled me to become part of the team. The placement also gave me the experience of working in other departments of the company such as quality testing.' - Andy Fones, PhD Student in Metallurgy and Materials

Key Information Sets (KIS) are comparable sets of information about full- or part-time undergraduate courses and are designed to meet the information needs of prospective students.
All KIS information has been published on the Unistats website and can also be accessed via the small advert, or 'widget', below. On the Unistats website you are able to compare all the KIS data for each course with data for other courses.
The development of Key Information Sets (KIS) formed part of HEFCE's work to enhance the information that is available about higher education. They give you access to reliable and comparable information in order to help you make informed decisions about what and where to study.
The KIS contains information which prospective students have identified as useful, such as student satisfaction, graduate outcomes, learning and teaching activities, assessment methods, tuition fees and student finance, accommodation and professional accreditation.
As a Birmingham student you are part of an academic elite and will learn from world-leading experts. At Birmingham we advocate an enquiry based learning approach, from the outset you will be encouraged to become an independent and self-motivated learner, qualities that are highly sought after by employers. We want you to be challenged and will encourage you to think for yourself.
Your learning will take place in a range of different settings, from scheduled teaching in lectures and small group tutorials, to self-study and peer group learning (for example preparing and delivering presentations with your classmates).
To begin with you may find this way of working challenging, but rest assured that we?ll enable you to make this transition. You will have access to a comprehensive support system that will assist and encourage you, including personal tutors and welfare tutors who can help with both academic and welfare issues, and a formal transition review during your first year to check on your progress and offer you help for any particular areas where you need support.
Personal Tutor: At the start of your degree, you will be assigned a Personal Tutor who will remain with you throughout your studies to help you in three important areas: supporting your academic progress, developing transferable skills and dealing with any welfare issues.
Delivery of the course In your first and second years, the course is delivered as lectures, small group workshops, laboratories, computer-based activities, enquiry-based learning and tutorials. A strong emphasis is placed on design and research project work in your third and fourth years respectively.
Laboratory-based practical work forms an integral part of the School's degree programmes. Laboratory classes are embedded within a module and used, not only to develop your experimental practical skills, but also to reinforce concepts introduced in lectures or to explore a particular phenomenon. First year practical sessions, typically, last two hours and increase in length in subsequent years to allow for more advanced experiments.
Small-group tutorials/personal tutorials run alongside the lecture course, addressing any individual problems you may have and allowing you to consolidate the lecture material, as well as test your understanding through problem-solving exercises.
Enquiry Based Learning (EBL) provides an environment where your learning process is driven by enquiry and the lecturer's role is purely as a facilitator. EBL is typically a group activity.
This requires working in a team and you can be assessed in a variety of ways: in either a group or individually, by written reports and/or oral presentations. EBL will give you a research-orientated approach to a problem, and has a synergy within research-led institutions like the University of Birmingham.
Project work: A strong emphasis is placed on project work in your final year. The range of projects includes practical work in the laboratory, or computer-based projects. You can choose the topic of your project from a pool of titles and work with your project supervisor to tailor the project to your particular research interests.
The course modules are taught through lectures, tutorial problem classes, case studies, laboratory and/or project work. You will be assessed through a mixture of written examinations and continually assessed coursework. Examinations are taken in May and June.
Assessment methods used include end-of-year examinations, written assignments, and oral presentations, computer-based tests, laboratory and project reports. Each module is assessed independently and most contain some components of continuous assessment, which usually account for 15% to 40% of the marks. Some modules are completely assessed by either examination or coursework.
We place strong emphasis on providing prompt and informative feedback on all pieces of work that you submit during your studies. Feedback comes in a variety of forms, including written feedback on pieces of assessment, class feedback sessions and one-on-one discussions with your tutors. In all cases, the feedback will highlight the good points as well as those areas that require more attention.
As your degree progresses, you will attend fewer lectures and perform more independent studies and practical work in preparation for your final year project.
During your first year the University will require you to undergo a formal 'transition' review, mentioned above, to see how you are getting on and if there are particular areas where you need support. This is in addition to the personal tutor who is based in the School and can help with any academic issue you encounter. Our Academic Skills Centre also offers you support with your learning. The centre is a place where you can develop your mathematical, academic writing and general academic skills. It is the centre?s aim to help you to become a more effective and independent learner through the use of a range of high-quality and appropriate learning support services. These range from drop-in sessions with support with mathematics and statistics based problems provided by experienced mathematicians, to workshops on a range of topics including note taking, reading, writing and presentation skills.
At the beginning of each module, you will be given information on how and when you will be assessed for your particular programme of study. You will receive feedback on each assessment within four weeks, so that you can learn from and build upon what you have done. You will be given feedback on any exams that you take; if you should fail an exam, we will ensure that particularly detailed feedback is made available to enable you to learn for the future.
Feedback shows that 80% of our students go on to work or study on graduation. Of those in employment, around 95% gain graduate-level jobs and are earning salaries in the region of £23,000-£29,000 pa six months after graduation.
Preparing for your future career should be one of the first things you think about as you start university. As one of our Materials students, exciting career choices will open up to you when you graduate with an accredited degree such as this. You could pursue a career in one of the automotive, aerospace or energy sectors; one of the manufacturing industries; or you could work in other areas of science and technology, such as materials testing or failure analysis. Other areas that favour the problem-solving skills you will acquire are finance, law and marketing as well as teaching and/or research.
Superb opportunities exist for you to gain industrial experience before you graduate. You will gain relevant work experience, and earn money putting into practice the skills and knowledge gained from your degree. Students on placement get involved in serious projects which ask difficult questions that require good engineering answers - and which often lead to sponsorship and/or the offer of a graduate job.
Another option is to join our MEng programme with industrial experience and spend up to six months with one of our industrial partners; usually between your third and fourth study years.
A rich vein of expertise will be available for you to tap into, not only through the University's dedicated Careers Network, but from the School's own industrial liaison officer. From these careers professionals you will gain the skills to help you secure a range of placements from vacation jobs to, eventually, your graduate job.
At School-level, you can opt to add a year to your programme, whatever the course you are studying, and spend this time on placement in industry. You will gain relevant work experience, and earn money putting into practice the skills and knowledge gained from your degree. Students on placement get involved in serious projects which ask searching questions that require good engineering answers - and which often lead to sponsorship and/or the offer of a graduate job. On successful completion of a placement in industry organised by the School, and success in your studies, you will be awarded the Certificate in Industrial Studies to add to your degree and improve your employability prospects.
At University-level, our unique careers guidance service is tailored to academic subject areas, offering a specialised team (in each of the five academic colleges) who can give you expert advice. Our team sources exclusive work experience opportunities to help you stand out amongst the competition, with mentoring, global internships and placements available to you. Once you have a career in your sights, one-to-one support with CVs and job applications will help give you the edge. In addition, our employer-endorsed award-winning Personal Skills Award (PSA) recognises your extra-curricular activities, and provides an accredited employability programme designed to improve your career prospects.
We also offer voluntary work which complements your studies by helping you gain practical experiences in occupational settings while contributing back to society. This can bring new skills that will be useful throughout your future and can make a positive impact on your learning whilst at university. Volunteering enables you to develop skills such as communication, interpersonal skills, teamwork, self-confidence and self-discipline all of which can be transferred into your studies.
Whichever of the above forms of careers guidance, or combination of such, you select you will find your prospects for employment after graduation considerably enhanced. If you make the most of the wide range of careers advice we can offer, you will be able to develop your career from the moment you arrive.
Career destinations of previous graduates include:

The crappy looking met tower erected on the White farm by the failed Acciona developer is a reminder to all that the Cape is not the right place for industrial wind. |
Two Cape Vincent meteorological towers have out-lasted not only their welcome, but their original permitting agreement that said they would be temporary.
And, by the way, if you can see a Cape meteorological tower keep in mind that British Petroleum's proposed mega monster turbines will be three to four times as high.

Q: I'm always hearing about the importance of water. Why is water so important and how much should I drink?
A: Yes, water is important. Water plays an important roll in all body functions and is essential for health and even survival. The general guideline is to drink eight cups of water per day which is equivalent to 64 ounces or half a gallon.
However, the amount of water needed can be affected by climate, diet and physical activity. Water can also help with weight loss. Increasing your water intake when on a diet will help you feel full and help you stay away from eating excess calories. Water also helps to flush away waste in the body which can be important during times of weight loss.
Here are some tips to ensure you are getting enough water:
Water is essential for a healthy body and can help you with your diet goals, so drink plenty of water every day!

Jets Players Already Discussing Tebow Move
According to TMZ, Jets players are already talking about Tim Tebow and what his presence with the Jets might do to their team.
Sources connected to the Jets tell TMZ … a bunch of players were working out in the gym at the Jets training facility when the news broke that Tebow had been traded.
We're told several players got into a pretty heated conversation about the move .. with multiple Jets complaining he's "overrated."
But Tebow DOES have supporters … we're told multiple players argued that he's a good guy with real potential … and will be a good backup for Mark Sanchez.
As one player put it, "If nothing else, he will make us a more holy squad."
Normally I would post-amble this … but in this case … here you go my darling little jackals.
Phil has no front office history, so we have no idea if he'll even do a good job at it.
The most positive thing about him coming to NY is the possibility of Dolan stepping back and stop messing around.
The most negative thing about him coming to NY is the possibility of Melo wanting to stay in NY at a max contract.
Let's all hope for the best.
OT. How about St Johns in the traditional road Blue unis? Blowing a 6 pt lead with 11 seconds left, but still sucking it up to win in double overtime. Rysheed Jordan looks like a real talent at pg. Btw how bad does Trey Burke look.
The top coaches in the NBA today were promoted from assistant jobs and never coached any other NBA team.
Dolan wants a name.
i remember watching a Laker practice on tv and i hated PJ at the time but watching that practice turned my hate to respect. he had the team working on FUNDAMENTALS/SKILLS. i believe he's gonna bring a coach in here (if he agrees to come) that has that same philosophy.
The team can't execute what you want them to unless they have mastered the little things---the fundamentals of the game.
Simply common sense which many NBA coaches do not seem to possess.
Let's get this straight. A report from a source said something about something and then everybody went apes*&t about that something only to then find out that the something everybody went nuts about is actually something else.
I personally don't believe that Phil Jackson was offered the head coaching job of the NY Knicks.In fact, I beleieve that the source that leaked any meeting with Jackson did not know the reason for the meeting and simply said to whatever birdie Stephen A Smith or Ian Begeley have working for them that there was a meeting. ESPN is famous for creating stories out of misinformation.
Phil Jackson is not well enough to coach and travel over an 82 game season. He is however well enough to sit in an office across the plaza from MSG to run the basketball operations of an NBA franchise, so I do believe that the Knicks broached him about a front office gig.
Woodson knows his time will come to an end after game 82 or an unlikely first round playoff exit. None of this has anything to do with Phil Jackson meeting with the Knicks so I would appreciate it if dude's like Larry brown keep their opinions to themselves about things they don't know anything about.
Jackson has no history as front office guy. He didn't have the power in Chicago nor in LA and in fact it was the lack of power in Chicago that led him to leave and then the lack of power in LA that led him to retire there. Things are never as they seem, (or reported). Chances are he would relish the chance to actually run a franchise, so I do believe that the Knicks made a serious offer to Jackson about taking the GM reigns, and I think he is seriously considering it. Beyond that I leave the speculation and misinformation to ESPN and their minions.
If all these looming rumors help inject some life into this team and mediocre coach, I say keep 'em coming.
The next 4 games are fundamental.
Obviously with this coach no game is a "winnable" one, but Cleveland, Philly, Boston, and Milwaukee....
If you don't seize upon this chance, because it certainly is the last one and a desperate, a last ditch effort.
If they don't put in the work, it'd be just another example of this team's lack of will and pride.
looking at them videos on youtube when the Knicks were rivals against Bulls, Pacers, Heat makes me wish us young ones get a chance to see what we didn't back in the day. that would be epic. now that was real basketball.
Amare not being a minus, is huge, but more importantly playing him without THJR on the floor to me is the bigger news. It's taken Woodson 60 plus games to appear to finally have found the correct rotation.
@ Sandro. It's worth a shot... IMO... Once a Knick, always a Knick.... People always talk about Ewing not having a job with us, which I wouldn't mind either, not saying head coach either... Jackson won a championship with us and has been around championship bball for a very long time.... Melo said he would take less $$, Phil gotta hold him to his word....
@Sandro Phil is extremely smart and is a basketball person. I am praying that he accepts the position, although I'm not expecting it.
@Knicks_Fanatic Name brand coaches possess a high level of creativity and intelligence. That's exactly what we need.
@VerySilentJay It's now or never. Our april schedule is beyond brutal. We gotta take advantage no excuses.
Woodson won't be sliding over into Herbs seat. He'll be on another bench as an assistant.
@Kiyan Carter. I've been saying we need to focus on Phoenix... I think they want Chandler and could use him... They have Robin Lopez and Bledsoe, who we could use..... They also have 4 picks, one of which we could use, and they like Shump....
"Demote Woodson"?
Bag that. Get him out of here as soon as possible.
Dude butchered our season. I've never seen a coach regress so much.
Good article on Florida and their 4 senior starters, in SI. Turns out the Harrison twins not only aren't lottery picks, they shouldn't even be 1st picks. I'm sure they'll wind up leaving and some team will take them in the 1st rd.
@Seth Nadler I agree, THjr playing with Pablo, Shump and hopefully K-Mart when he returns should help bolster that unit. If not K-Mart, then maybe Cole.
Name brand coaches and front office people sell hope and the highest priced tickets in the NBA to a fan base lusting for a title.
@ smiggybalz. If ur asking me, first of all, there not "stars".. Secondly, I said Phoenix could use Chandler, so by trading them Chandler, that opens up a lot of cap space.....
Tyler should be on that unit also, he's just playing with an injured hand right now so he's playing a lot less effective than he was earlier in the season!
@Knicks_Fanatic @firebaldy Quick fix? How is this a quick fix. The Knicks have been in the shiitter for a long time. You stretchin now.
Trying the same thing over and over again is insanity. We need a long term plan to build a winning team, not a quick fix and new personnel every year.
Coaches don't go from assistant to HC, back to assistant. Unless they were interim guys. Woodson has years of HC experience and would never stay on as an assistant even if the Knicks wanted him to.
All the positives from last year have been shredded by his actions this season.
Everyone's guilty, of course, but as he is the coach, he takes the plaudits and the blames.
Last season he was candidate for COY, now he's at the bottom.
That's the way it goes.
- Not adjusting to his new personnel. If your guards aren't shooting well, why keep chucking 25-30 threes a game? Shows his ignorance.
- Hold his players accountable? BS imo. The team's play throughout the entire season demonstrates that no one was held accountable.
- Defensive coach? Yeah, tell that to the switching and the complete lack of hustle.
- Throwing players under the bus? Unacceptable.
- Stunting the growth or younguns? Not an option
@Kiyan Carter Everyone in his staff is just as guilty as he is.
But, given that he has the HC title, it's all on him.
@Kiyan Carter So basically keep him around for what he did last season?
A guy like Thibs would demand nothing but commitment from everyon, so Woodson's not needed.
I'm not fond of the way he has used his rookies. His reputation as a "defensive minded coach" has been completely exposed as a fraud.
His team has questioned him publicly time and time again...
Why would you wanna keep a guy that's been so toxic?
He's lucky to be coaching this far.
@ VerySikentJay. True that... JVG may want to come back, in part for feeling he abandoned us mid season, which he has stated publicly.... Thibs on the other hand, was wrongfully accused of giving secrets to Frank Isola ,I believe, while both men deny it to this day... I doubt he would come back, and I prefer to keep any draft picks we still have... :). I would love him to be here tho
@chudogz That's a clasic exit for most coaches that go through this team.
You never know.
But he isn't happy in Chicago. That much has been reported several times.
@ VerySilentJay. I doubt Thibs wants to come back, after being showed the Exit door the first time around, by Guitar Shimmy, after being extremely loyal
@firebaldy @VerySilentJay @Kiyan Carter Oh no doubt about that one.
Should Jax get the gig expectations must be grounded, he's never had such a role before. No telling what he has in mind.
all of course, in this hypothetical scenario, which, personally, I don't thinnk will happen.
@VerySilentJay @firebaldy @Kiyan Carter if we're lucky enough to get PJ i'm sure he has his own list of coaches.
@firebaldy @VerySilentJay @Kiyan Carter I'll give a pick for him.
Just like the Clips with Doc.
And Thibs isn't happy with Bulls' management.
@Kiyan Carter Nahh...too much 3 pt chucking and not enough focus on D.
Thibs. Any day of the week.
He makes his players better. Brings the best out of everyone. Grooms rookies very well. Brings fire every night and doesn't tolerate those who don't matchup to his intensity.
Injects passion to teams, adapts his schemes to his players, and is a great tactician.
If anyone's not committed on either end, they sit.
Thibs is an elite coach. I'll take him on top of JVG, SVG, or Jackson.
@Kiyan Carter true. maybe his knees are aching or something. there was a time when he didn't wear anything on his legs now he has them all wrapped up.
@Kiyan Carter shump seems like he's still sulking or something. he probably thinks he's not gonna be here next season.
The Knicks almost never voluntarily give injury related information out on it's players, at least "accurate" information!
