Marzano Named to Head Design at Electrolux
Stefano Marzano |
STOCKHOLM-Electrolux has appointed Stefano Marzano to the newly created role of chief design officer.
The move puts Marzano in charge of all design at the global housewares and appliances manufacturer, reporting directly to Keith McLoughlin, president and CEO. It also puts in place a formal structure for product development, which the company called its "innovation triangle." This places research and development, marketing and design functions in a synergistic format for the entire creation process, Electrolux said in a statement.
Marzano has come out of retirement to take his new post. In his career, he served as chief design officer for Royal Philips Electronics. He also served on the faculties of Domus Academy and Politecnico di Milano, both in Milan, Italy. He is also the author and editor of several books on design.

As reported here, tracking agency comScore has given Google a commanding 68 per cent market share. Yahoo is running second at 7.8 per cent. Google is so much part of our culture now that it has even become a verb (when you "google" something). Google's power lies in its algorithm, which can make or break companies and which is causing no end of grief for media companies and advertisers. And it's set to grow. Fortune blogger Michael Copeland writes that Google has now launched a function tracking into industry sectors and at Wharton business school , academics see Google travelling in the same direction as Microsoft did when it was a cool start up. Many have strong opinions about what Microsoft is like to deal with. Is that where Google will be in a few years time?
Google is not only the dominant search engine, it's also introducing free productivity software, an Android mobile platform for smartphones, and it's also planning to develop its own operating system. That will put it in full on confrontation with Apple and that will be a battle worth watching. As they write, we are only at the start of this journey. "Google's moves into new markets are about reaching more consumers to use its search tools, learning more about their preferences, transferring information (like cell phone contacts) to its servers, and ultimately targeting ads more precisely".
'Google is interested in maximising reach and eyeballs. Everything reverts to advertising,' notes Forrester analyst Charlie Golvin, who says that he expects Apple and Google to alternate between cooperating and competing as developments warrant.
At the same time, a battle is shaping in the search engine market. Microsoft and Yahoo, in a joint venture some call "Microhoo" have joined forces to launch Bing which will have features that Google doesn't have. The problem is they are starting from way behind and as searchengineland blooger Greg Sterlingsays, the question is whether people are just using Google out of "habit" or because they have a positive relationship with the Google brand. Still, there is some room for growth with Adweek reporting earlier this year that Forrester research showed people were likely to switch because brand loyalty was low and besides, many used multiple search engines.
Personally, I have concerns about Google's dominance, even if I use it all the time. Last year, I did a blog entry looking at whether Google was actually making us stupid and less likely to work as hard analysing information. Also, I am uncomfortable about monopoly. It's not a good thing and encourages laziness.
How much has Google reshaped your life? How often do you use it? And what do you think of Google's near monopoly? Do you see it heading in the same direction as Microsoft? And what's your opinion of Bing?

A very sweet post. I feel like, given enough time, I will love all the same things my mother has. As far as hair, a single braid looks sedate and dignified on anyone, and in winter, it doesn't get all fetched up on any collar or scarf, so it's easy to keep your long hair from tangling, even in sleep.
ReplyDelete This is such a beautiful post. Clothes that help us remember those passed on are so wonderful. I treasure a metal purse that I was given after my great aunt passed away; the family thought I would love it (and I do!) but I found out later that was partly because they all thought it was so ugly, hahaha! Kinda makes it even a more fond memory, to know we had similar peculiar taste!
The setting and lighting of these photos is particularly lovely. So soft, the warm colours of the sky behind you, the low fences disappearing off into the distance. Really dreamy.
--ErinYour mom's shirt looks wonderful on you! :)
And I actually really like your hair in the high bun!! :)
Shannon @ Fabulously VintageLove that outfit!
I used to have long hair. Had it for most of my life actually... but it was usually kept in a ballet bun, and when I stopped dancing I quickly decided to chop it all off. I do remember loving to put in in braids, and loose curls. I've become so used to my short hair, I can hardly remember what it was like having it long.Cute sweater and boots :) What a nice way to remember your mom.
And I used to have pretty long, super curly/poofy hair. I remember i used to love putting it messy buns and twist my bangs back. Well anyways, now I have a pixie cut so sadly there isn't a whole lot I can do with it, haha.
http://youreinbrookelynn.blogspot.com/It's so nice you're able to wear your Mum's clothes with the good memories attached- and it's a lovely jumper!
Also, on the hair, I hear you! I switch between long hair and a bob and the best feeling in the world is growing it long and chopping it off. I just cut about six inches of hair off. I can highly recommend it!hi Amanda, thanks a bunch for visiting me! awesome score from your mom's closet, the checkers are rad and i love your darling top knot too!!! i wear my hair like that all the time, so easy-peasy...especially for 3 days without washing ;) best ever!
your Betsey J necklace is the sweetest thing. a little accessory add on like that kinda makes an outfit complete i think. nice one! these are really incredible photos, you have a lovely smile, feels very warm from the inside out. cheers to a simply awesome 20XIII lades, hope it's filled with cheers + charms. ♥

Well, again I have been slacking in the blogging department. I am happy to report I have been staying on track with my training and I have no injuries to report. I am up to running around 25 miles per week at this point in my training. I am running 4 days a week, strength training 2 days per week, and resting 1 day per week. I am very happy with my training group, Chicago Endurance Sports! I have developed some wonderful friendships in the course of my training.
I have also begun seeing a nutritionalist. So far I have dropped from 28.9% body fat to 26.8% in a matter of 5 weeks. I am continuing to drop body fat and I have seen an improvement in my running as a result.
I am running Chicago's Rock and Roll Half Marathon next Sunday (08.01.10) and am mentally preparing myself for the race. This race will show me if my body is holding up and I should be able to put out my marathon pace without being completely wasted at the end of my run.
I am getting massages about 2x per month focusing on deep tissue massages for my legs. I have extemely tight leg muscles that need to be worked on on a regular basis to keep me injury free.
I'm trying to maintain a positive mental attitude and look at each run I complete as a "good run". Some runs, of course, are a lot harder than others and I find myself at times stopping to walk and shaking my head to try and mentally get back into it. I think the mental game of running is proving to be a lot harder than the physical aspect of it. I'm actively trying to be more "zen-like" and not looking at my watch to see how fast I just ran the last split. It is a hard thing to do. I am fiercly competitive by nature.
Until next time....
Happy Running!
My blog will follow my running journey up to and through my 1st Marathon... Chicago 2010! You will read about my inspirations, PRs (hopefully!), and of course my struggles. So feel free to share your stories as well!

The White Space
8 comments:
I love your son's drawing, too! Beautiful and it really reminds me of my view today (with all the snow). I'm so impressed that you're writing poetry -- I haven't done that in many many years and I've never done it very well (which I suppose speaks to your point of that discrepancy...). I love your photos, by the way!
ReplyDeleteRepliesOh Julia, I've been wondering how you're doing... Is Maine in line for the big storm that's making its way across the country? I took those pics (in this post) during our snowstorm yesterday, but we were nowhere near the 2-3 feet they're predicting for the Northeast!
And btw, I had to make a change in wording in order to clear something up: When I wrote that I was spending time with poetry, I only meant in terms of *reading* it. Wish I could write it too, but so far, I'm not so good at it. Stay warm & safe...
I love that drawing too. I see so much in it, all the tension and the memory in the trees, all the burn of silence in the white. I wonder if something of the soul of real things (trees, snow) enters into all drawings of them, and we then see what we know of them. I'm glad you rescued that picture.
I too crave the unfinished and unsaid, the silence, the space. I recently read Megan Whalen Turner's books and they were all about that. The distance between the reader and the characters was wonderful - for some, we never even knew their real names - because in that wordless space relationship could be woven.RepliesSarah, ever since I read it, I can't stop thinking about this part of your comment: "I wonder if something of the soul of real things (trees, snow) enters into all drawings of them, and we then see what we know of them." I love the mystery in pondering that!
I looked up Meghan Whalen Turner on amazon, and I wonder if my son would like her books. It's so hard to find good storytelling for his age and interests. And it would be a double bonus if they're books I would enjoy reading, too.
Barb this is gorgeous...the idea of contemplating what is unknown. I crave it too. Your son's art makes me happy. : ) Thank you.

chocolate coconut truffels
1 cup cocoa powder
1 cup ground almonds, grind in coffee grinder
4 tablespoon coconut oil
4 tablespoon agave
Mix all ingredients in food processor until smooth. Form into balls and roll in coconut flakes. Chill
6 reponses to "chocolate coconut truffels"
i just realised i posted a recipe thats nearly (exactly) the same as yours minus coconut flakes, Rochelle! sorry, didnt mean it!! i thought i had invented something oh well :)
I made these tonight, but it came out too dry, had to add two more tablespoons of coconut oil and 2 more tablespoons of sweetener. They are very tasty, though not quite as good as the raw fudge at the local vegan/raw place here, must find out where they got their recipe....
This sounds incredibly good, I might make them at some point today!
Im definitely trying this tomorrow. nice contribution.

An idea for a partial feeback pentode amp using 6AU6's and 807's
Hi there,
I have an idea for a PP amp. I intend using microphone transformers as a front end step down and phase splitting stage. This would then feed a pentode configured 6AU6 (with regulated screen) LTP with CCS in the tail. This would then feed a pair of 807's in pentode mode with partial feedback to the grids. This idea is based on the pentode amps which Gary Pimm developed. Even with the front end step down of 9:1, the 6AU6 should have well enough gain to drive the 807's. My question is what is a good operating point for the 6AU6, I have looked at a few datasheets and end up with a headache. I want a bias point of at least -3V , with a +B of between 250V and 350V. Any experience greatly appreciated. Shoog |

Hi Shoog,
there are plenty of 6AU6 datasheets containing tons of tables of suggested operation points for audio duty. The manufacturers certainly knew why they suggested them. Just pick one that suits your gain, voltage swing and Zout demands. Maybe you also could have a look at EF94 datasheets, which is the same tube, but European designation. When not developing for "special" situations, I just stick to the Lorenz EF94 table for RC-coupled gain stages. As a more linear and capable alternative, EF80/6BX6 comes to mind, which is cheap and plenty (at least in Europe). I got stunning results and capabilities (extensively published elsewhere) using just a certain op point recommendation from the spec sheet. Tom Schlangen
If in doubt, just measure. |

Pity Gary Pimm took his site down as there was a very similar schem based on his earlier PP47 (which I built and it was flippin luvverly). If I can remember what it was called and where I saved the schem, I'll post it.
Found it. |

If you go regulated voltage for the g2's of a LTP, make sure you ref it to the cathodes. LTP in both pentode and cascode with the upper g1, or g2 (in the case of the pentodes) didn't work anywhere near as well with the ref to ground. cheers, Douglas

I had been looking for the Gary Pimm schematic and though I had it, but I didn't. Thanks for that.
Useful info on referencing to cathode rather than ground. I will work up a rough of my idea in the next couple of days and leave it open to comment/flamming. Thanks Shoog |

why do you need a CCS in the LTP, for the phase inversion you have the input transformer? Regards Andreas |

OTOH, I have seen differential pentode LTPs in tube scopes and normally they don't bother with referencing the G2 supply to cathode, because the input signal is actually very small, so the change in Vg2-k is also very small. It is a form of feedback but since mu g1-g2 is so much smaller than effective pentode mu wrt plate, it is acceptable. Although input voltage swing is higher in audio amps compared to scopes (by 1-2 orders of magnitude!), it may still be fairly small (considerably less than 1%) compared to Vg2. Assuming the pentodes are not working to the extremes of their voltage swing, we can approximate that Ig2 of both pentodes together is fairly constant and will not upset the differential action of the LTP, adjusting the tail CCS higher to compensate for Ig2 of both tubes. If botha assumptions are correct, then investing in G2 regulation referenced to the common LTP cathodes may not provide a signifficant benefit compared to the cost. There is a third soultuin, which is, however, only usable if three conditions are satisfied: 1) The amplifier uses single ended input 2) Fairly high NFB factors are used 3) The feedback is arranged for an inverting configuration, i.e. the input of the amp is the (-) input of the LTP and the (+) input is grounded, so the (-) input of the LTP is a virtual ground. This often implies lower input impedances. Under these conditions, because the input of the LTP behaves as a virtual ground, the voltage swing on it is small, and so is, by consequence, the swing on the common cathode connection of the LTP. By extension, the variation in Vg2-K is also small compared to Vg2, the latter remains referenced to ground. |

Further, the seemingly small change offered by ref'ing g2 to cathode v. the ground makes important changes to the sonic signature IMO. cheers, Douglas

Mainly because the presence of the Input transformer allows you easily to introduce the CCS without the need for a negative supply. The bottom of the input transformer can be referenced to the junction of the two 6AU6 cathodes and the top of the CCS. Each cathode has its own cathode bias resistor and the CCS can be a simple LM317. In this way the LTP with both sides driven by the input, should help to correct any slight imbalance introduced by the input transformer. It really only constitutes a few extra components and its very unlikely to degrade the performance over them not been there. A sort of belt and braces approach. Shoog |

a very good idea, because often the capacitances to center tap are different (nonsymmetrical) in that transformers. Regards Andreas |

Firefighters in Holderness, Sanbornton handle snow first
There were no injuries reported as crews battled a basement fire at 28 Threshing Mill Road in Sanbornton and at a student's dorm room at 33 Chapel St. in Holderness at Holderness School.
Firefighters were able to contain the small fire to the basement. It was caused by an overheated pellet stove, officials said, and minor damage was done to the basement.
"It looked like the student was cooking something and left," he said.
Sprinklers in the dormitory stopped the fire from spreading beyond the stove, Eastman said "There was a lot of water damage," he said. "The sprinklers saved it from becoming a bad situation. Instead, we just have a room and contents lost."

Etymology of Karnataka
Karnataka is an Indian state. Several etymologies have been suggested for the name Karnataka. The region was popularly referred to as 'Karnata desa' in Indian history. However, historically, the names Karnatak or Carnatic have been misapplied to refer to the regions in or beyond the Western Ghats (Kodagu and Kerala) as well as to a region in present day Andhra Pradesh (Telangana).[1] The other accepted derivative comes from the Kannada words karu and nādu meaning elevated land, or from the Kannada words kal and nādu meaning rock country, referring to the rocky terrain of the state. Another etymological derivative of the name comes from lear or black—a reference to the black cotton soil of the region.[2] Mysore state was renamed Karnataka in 1973.
References from Hindu texts[edit]
Part of a series on the |
History of Karnataka |
Categories |
The earliest known references to Karnataka are found in the Sabha Parva and the Bhishma Parva of Mahabharata, an ancient Indian epic.[3][4] The Matsya Purana, Skanda Purana, Markandeya Purana and the Bhagavata Purana also make references to the name Karnata.
In Canto 5 - Chapter 6 of the Bhagavata Purana, Karnata is mentioned while narrating the life of Rishabhadeva. It is said in the Bhagavata that the Lord in Rishabhadeva's form ended his avatara in the Kutakachala hill in Karnata province. Kutakchala is a hill in present day Karnataka near Kollur in the Western Ghats.[5][6]
Historical references[edit]
Scholars Pāṇini ( 520–460 BCE), Mrichchakatika and Kathasaritsagara make references to Karnataka in their ancient works. Later, in the 5th century CE, the term Karnataka was used by the astrologer Varaha Mihira in his work Brihatkatha and the Birur plates of Kadamba Vishnuvarma call Shantivarma The master of the entire Karnataka region.[7] In the 7th century CE, Rashtrakuta inscriptions refer to the armies of Chalukyas of Badami as Karnatakabala.[citation needed] The Tamil classic Silappatikaram of the same time period calls the people of present day Karnataka region as Karunatakars.[citation needed].The Kalingathu parani, a war poem written by jayangkondar in Tamil Literature calls a people of a region called 'Karunatiyar'.[8] In the 9th century CE, the Kannada classic Kavirajamarga hails the entire region between the rivers Kaveri and Godavari as Karnata.[9] In the 13th century CE, Kannada poet Andayya's works use the same terminology. In the late 16th century, a Telugu work Vasucharitamu refers to Tirumala Deva Raya (1570 CE), the first of the Aravidu (Aravithi) line of rulers of the late Vijayanagar Empire as the reviver of the Karnata Empire.[10] All this clearly shows that the name Karnataka has been in usage consistently since ancient times.[11]
alternate theories[edit]
Karnataka's name may have originated from the two words Kabbu Nadu, which means land of Sugarcane. This etymology might be possible as Karnataka is a huge Sugarcane-cultivating land.

Owners Adam Schneider and Vanessa Palazio based some of their creative flavor mash-ups on favorite pastas, like one sandwich with leek confit, Gruyère, and pancetta (chevre was added for an acidic kick), and they also have the option to add marrow butter to any sandwich for a dollar extra. When delivery begins in a few weeks, customers can choose to have the sandwich cooked on premises or delivered toaster-ready "to protect against sogginess," Schneider explains. For now, you can take out or grab one of thirteen seats beneath a cheese-grater chandelier for lunch, dinner, and late night (till midnight Sundays, 2 a.m. during the week, and 4 a.m. Thursday through Saturday). See the space and some food in our slideshow, and preview the menu below.

Given there's no Nintendo Direct for Japan tomorrow, it's likely going to be a bunch of localization announcements. Yeah that's our only hope but I'll say the chances are slim... | |
MagiusNecros posted... ND tomorrow at 9am EST Wow. I'm afraid to hope for good news.. SE needs to quit playing with my heart and just announce a localization.. --- Modern Country Music makes more sense when high on Nitros Oxide. | |
If SquareEnix won't do it, Nintendo will. Either way, we'll be getting this game, I do believe that. --- Not removing this sig until Bravely Default:Flying Fairy is localized. http://i.imgur.com/atFfl36.png | |
Ouch. Shame you guys still aren't able to play the game, though it is ultimately up to Square's Japanese branch and their localization meeting is this week or the next, so I'm not too surprised. Hopefully good results come in by the end of this week or the next. --- PSN: Neophoton Currently playing: Kid Icarus: Uprising, Sly 4, Fire Emblem: Awakening | |
It's a no show. As expected. --- I have always hoped for a BERSERK Final Fantasy Game to be made realized. Official GILGAMESH of every Gamefaqs Board | |

Take a step back in time on a tour through the Indiana State Police Museum. You can travel into our past taking a look at various uniforms, cars and equipment used by the Indiana State Police over the years.
The Museum, dedicated in 1993, was built on unused acreage adjacent to the Indianapolis Post. Funding for construction and furnishings for the Museum was made possible through private donations. A committee of department employees and community leaders oversaw the construction phase. Upon completion, more volunteers were called on to spend numerous hours completing the interior and displays. Additionally, employees and friends of the Indiana State Police donated memorabilia to enhance the exhibits.
During a tour, visitors can see displays of donated and confiscated items from the John Dillinger era, as well as a moonshine still, a variety of Indiana State Police vehicles, and numerous antique equipment relating to law enforcement. The Museum also serves as the administrative offices of the Indiana State Police Youth Services. Since 1970, the Indiana State Police has sponsored camps for middle and high school students interested in law enforcement.
Indiana State Police logo items are available at the Museum's Gift Counter. The Indiana State Police Museum is open to the public Monday thru Friday from 9am to 3pm, or by appointment. For more information or tours of the center, contact the Indiana State Police Museum, 8660 East 21st Street, Indianapolis, IN 46219, 317-899-8293 or 1-888-ISP-YOUTH.
NOTE: The Indiana State Police Museum
will be closed on Wednesday,
April 29, 2015.
The two-headed car allows visitors to sit inside an authentic patrol car. From the driver's seat you can activate the emergency lights and siren and communicate via the radio with the driver of the other side of the car.
The boots and breeches uniform of the 1930's is captured in this display.
Patrol cars used by the department through the years are on display at the museum.
These early box plate studio cameras were used to capture images of evidence and offenders.
In the early days of the Indiana State Police, troopers patrolled Indiana's roadways astride Indian motorcycles.
Through the years civilian dispatchers have played a key role in keeping Indiana safe. Dispatchers used consoles like this one to keep troopers apprised of ongoing activities.
The Indiana Excise Police Law Enforcement Division has destroyed many stills like this one capable of producing approximately 25 gallons of ethanol (pure grain alcohol).
The memorial wall at the museum's entrance serves as a reminder of the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
In the 1930's gangs of bank robbers ran rampant throughout Indiana. Due to the large number of robberies, the Indiana Legislature created the State Police in 1933. Displays from this era include items from Hoosier native John Dillinger, the Brady and Easton gangs.

Indianapolis Plans New Stadium for City, Colts
Indianapolis city officials are in the process of using an outsourced firm to seek a site for a new stadium, according to a news report in the Indianapolis Star. The city currently uses the RCA Dome, but according to the report the dome will likely need to be demolished to make way for an expected expansion of the city's convention center. Number of seats for the new stadium have been placed between 63,000 and 73,000 with a cost of $450 million or more for the new arena according to the report.

text: Kenneth Lawrence Beaudoin (1913-1995) was dubbed the Poet Laureate of the River at the 1976 Mid-South Festival. This was a fitting title for a man who not only produced a large quantity of poetry, but who also invented a new style of verse. Beaudoin's creations, called Eye-Poems, were a combination of words and pictures and represented a whole new style of poetic verse with imagery.
