Handbook of Optical Dimensional Metrology
Edited by Kevin Harding
CRC Press – 2013 – 506 pages
Due to their speed, data density, and versatility, optical metrology tools play important roles in today's high-speed industrial manufacturing applications. Handbook of Optical Dimensional Metrology provides useful background information and practical examples to help readers understand and effectively use state-of-the-art optical metrology methods.
The book first builds a foundation for evaluating optical measurement methods. It explores the many terms of optical metrology and compares it to other forms of metrology, such as mechanical gaging, highlighting the limitations and errors associated with each mode of measurement at a general level. This comparison is particularly helpful to current industry users who operate the most widely applied mechanical tools.
The book then focuses on each application area of measurement, working down from large area to medium-sized to submicron measurements. It describes the measurement of large objects on the scale of buildings, the measurement of durable manufactured goods such as aircraft engines and appliances, and the measurement of fine features on the micron and nanometer scales. In each area, the book covers fast, coarse measures as well as the finest measurements possible. Best practices and practical examples for each technology aid readers in effectively using the methods.
Requiring no prior expertise in optical dimensional metrology, this handbook helps engineers and quality specialists understand the capabilities and limitations of optical metrology methods. It also shows them how to successfully apply optical metrology to a vast array of current engineering and scientific problems.
"This handbook is an impressive collection of methods to make very precise measurements of location, length and surface quality."

This advert was on a YouTube page. Tempted though I was by the click for proof! Instead I went to Wiki.
Herbert was a pioneer of evangelical radio broadcasting...and Jesus will save us all in this generation ~yawn.
If you really want to know how right he was his book is here for you to read:
The sociologist Avery F. Gordon regards ghosts as having a "something-to-be-done" nature. Ghosts only appear when they have something to say, and Herbert Armstrong is no longer of this world, his YouTube apparition is therefore a kind of ghost. Perhaps Avery F. Gordon is thinking of Shakespeare and Hamlet, the ghost of a father representing the unsettling sense that all is not as it seems. A projection of Hamlet's mind, personifying and giving meaning to his sense of unease.
I really don't think Herbert is that kind of ghost.
For me this advert represents a difference between Britain and America, how the Internet is reducing the distance between 'us'. Or have I just missed similar British adverts because I'm too good at screening them out?
It is odd that we don't get ads for Orgone collectors on tv or buses, actually it was very odd that Wilhelm Reich was thrown into prison for selling spurious stuff...like its accurate or right.
To redress this imbalance here is a table full of orgone collectors made of copper balls, aluminium and quartz, black tourmaline, dark amethyst, garnet, peridot, lapis lazuli and hematite.
You can buy one from 17 Pericleous street, Athens.
They remind me of those sand and glass structures you could get from the Isle of Wight, full of different coloured sands from Alum Bay
Or delicious cakes, or Indian sweets from somewhere much closer.
Here is another design:
not so handy to keep about your person, or living room:
No one explains it better than this page:

A message just to subscribe the thread, I already shared my toughts on the other Otter-browser related one.
Phoronix: Opera-Like Otter Web Browser Out In Alpha Form
A few days ago I wrote about a Qt5-powered web-browser inspired by Opera that's open-source and would see its first development release soon. There was lots of interest in the project with many Opera users having experienced a falling-out with the closed-source browser's recent versions. Now as of yesterday Otter Alpha 1 is available...
A message just to subscribe the thread, I already shared my toughts on the other Otter-browser related one.
Be warned that these packages are highly experimental, especially DEB, it will be hard to satisfy dependencies, AFAIK Qt 5.2.0 is not packaged yet for Debian / (K)Ubuntu...
But you can always extract binary and run it with SDK.
There's no problem with the package for archlinux: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/otter-browser/
qt5.2 is in the official repos
@tom.higgy, yeah, that GStreamer is a bit harder one, it has to be exactly 0.10 (1.0 and later are incompatible) and I would say that its packaging is nonsensical (some of "basic" headers in base plugins package, seriously?), I'm curious what was rationale behind such split. ;-)
It would be nice to setup wiki page with such information, (also listing runtime dependencies for Windows, since it is as usual harder target), I'll try to add it in coming days (one place to collect all possible caveats).
BTW, the only part of my clone I had actually started on was an URL matching lib, for the content blocking. You inspired me to hack it up today into a presentable condition.
If you'd like to use it in Otter, take a look at
@curaga, interesting. :-)
I was looking for something like that (also for site specific preferences, since I would like add matching rules instead of simply matching host), so far I've found only this:
I don't have time to analyze it right now, so I'll have some questions here.
Does it load file from disk itself or you have to set list to it?
How it plays with non-ASCII characters in URLs?

Effect of glycerol, mannitol, and lasix on cerebrospinal fluid pressure in the acute period of a stroke | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 6797162 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
On giving a dose of glycerol (orally), mannitol or lasix (intravenously) to patients with a cerebral stroke in the acute period the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure in them dropped, on the average, by 70-80%, 65-70%, and 25-30%, respectively. However in 6.5 to 7.5 hours it rose again and the after-effect phenomenon appeared. The effects of the drugs having been over, the CSF pressure was found to exceed the initial level by 50-60% after the glycerol intake; by 75 to 80% after the mannitol, an by 4 to 6% after the lasix injections. When glycerol, mannitol, and lasix were given rectally the CSF pressure dropped, respectively, by 35-45%, 35-40%, and 20-25% below the initial level, and did not rise throughout the whole period of the observation. |

Crest Pro-Health Multi-Protection Rinse Reviews
Not very special
It freshened my breath, but that was pretty much it. Thank God, it did not add brown stain my teeth. It did not give me a burning feeling, but it left a little weird aftertaste for a while. Since I am used to the intensity of Listerine, I did not feel as clean and refreshed as when I use Listerine. If the price range of Pro-Health was lower, I would may have kept buying it. But since it is not, I went right back to Listerine. — 5 years, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
Love the alcohol free version!!
I have to say the best part about this mouthwash is definitely the fact that it's alcohol free. I've used so many different mouthwashes and I guess I'm a baby or something because I can't keep the mouthwash in my mouth for very long! With the pro health one I can move it around for way over a minute and there is no burning or uncomfortable feeling in my mouth. It has a great taste, and it does ...read moreit's job. I use this after brushing my teeth in the morning, after lunch, and after brushing my teeth in the evening and my breath tastes fresh, my mouth feels clean, and my dentist always compliments me on how well my teeth look and the shape they're in. I use the whitening rinse every other day with the same regimen just because I love white teeth! I always buy the largest size in this mouthwash because I do go through it fairly quickly (my husband loves it too) and it works! I wish I could find a little travel size to carry in my purse though...I haven't seen it anywhere!!

I started using this because my dentist suggested it because there is no alcohol in it. This is what they use at the office so I tried it there and then became a fan for life! I have been checking back to see what others have said and I am surprised at some of the bad reviews. I have been using this right along and love it! — 6 years, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Sarah's WebEnter The 19th Century World Of Sarah And Her FriendsHomeschool Friends In April, 2009 I attended the Southwest Home Education Ministry (SHEM) convention held in Springfield, Missouri. I met many wonderful folks, all interested in giving their children a good education. This was my third opportunity to offer my books as a vendor. Everyone treated me great. I had a terrific time telling folks about the Sarah books: Sarah's Wish, Sarah's Promise, and my latest novel, Sarah's Escape. Many signed up for Sarah's Web Newsletter, and guessed how many peppermints were in the big jug. Hannah Casertano had the closest guess and won a free copy of Sarah's Wish audio book.

Think It Over What Do You Think? Answers Below: What's a hatchel? In the Sarah books Sarah lives in Wapakoneta, Ohio. Who is the most famous person from Wapakoneta? What famous lady sharpshooter was born southwest of Wapakoneta in Darke County? What's an apothecary? What was an orphan train? Answers to the questions Hatchel - It's a tool for combing wool or separating flax fibers. Granny tended sheep for years and knows how to use it. Neil Armstrong - In 1969 he will be the first man to walk on the moon. Of course, that is over 100 hundred years in the future for me, but in the past for you. Annie Oakley - She was born in 1860. Phoebe Ann Moses was her real name, but she became known as Annie Oakley when she began shooting her gun in competition. Her father died when she was very young, and when she could hold his gun she began shooting in the woods, bringing game back to her house for supper. Apothecary - A 19th Century drugstore where medicines are compounded and dispensed. It refers to the druggist, also. Apothecaries sell other items in addition to the medicines, much like your 21st century drugstores. My mama, Rachel, bought her perfume at the apothecary. Orphan Train - The first orphan train left New York City, September 1854. The children taken west from 1854 to 1930 ranged from true orphans to many that were turned out into the streets of New York because their parents could no longer afford them. You will read in the book that I am fearful of being put on an orphan train. The Sarah books have glossaries in the front of each. Here are some sample entries: High-falutin'- a person stuck on himself or herself, stuck up. Light a shuck - leave in a great hurry. Little end of the horn - getting or having less than expected. Moses - Refers to Harriett Tubman. A slave, she escaped from Mudsills - uneducated, lower class, common people.

Project SEED, the American Chemical Society's social action program, places talented, disadvantaged high school students in academic, industrial, and government research laboratories for 8-10 weeks during the summer to experience "hands-on" research. Each student completes a chemical research project under the supervision of a scientist/mentor (called a preceptor) and receives an educational award.
The goal of Project SEED is to help expand the career outlook of economically disadvantaged students. Since 1968, The Project SEED Program has made it possible for more than 4,500 talented high school students to conduct research in local chemistry laboratories. The program will consist of an 8-10-week summer science research project for the students, with the majority of participants working in chemistry and chemistry-related sciences. The students receive individual instruction under the direct supervision of scientists/preceptors in the laboratory. The preceptors serve as role models and encourage the students to learn about careers in chemistry.
Our mission is to recruit, support, and encourage talented disadvantaged high school students to pursue Ph.D. degrees in Chemistry, and Chemistry-related
science disciplines, or the sciences, by providing the most comprehensive scientific research internship experience possible.
We define disadvantaged as:

Modeling and design of planar slanted volume holographic gratings for wavelength-division-multiplexing applications
Applied Optics, Vol. 38, Issue 34, pp. 6981-6986 (1999)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (391 KB)
Holographic gratings are modeled and designed for path-reversed substrate-guided-wave wavelength-division demultiplexing (WDDM) as a continuation of earlier research [Appl. Opt. 38, 3046 (1999)]. An efficient and practical method is developed to simulate the slanted volume holographic gratings. The trade-off between dispersion and the bandwidth of the holograms is analyzed. A 60° (incident angle of the grating)/60° (diffraction angle of the grating in air) grating structure is selected to demultiplex optical signals in the 1555-nm spectral region, and a 45°/45° grating structure is chosen for the spectral region near 800 nm. Experimental results are consistent with the simulation results for these two WDDM devices. A four-channel WDDM is also demonstrated at a center wavelength of 1555 nm and with a channel spacing of 2 nm.

Canon S95
I put it off too long, the purchase of this little gem. Doing pit lane work, I find the full equipment too heavy as I get older, so I decided to buy this little camera, highly recommended here, as a useful little tool. I am sure others have posted, but it truly is a great little camera, and very precise whether in aperture or shutter priority mode. The short zoom doesn't faze me, because trackside I have the heavy stuff and a monopod, but as a take-it-anywhere tool I wouldn't be without it. Compared to my old Fuji, which had a ridiculously short battery life, it is head and shoulders above.

The UPA government looks all set to win the winter test in both Houses of Parliament. This comes after Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati declared that she will vote for the government on FDI in retail in the Rajya Sabha. The UPA government looks all set to win the winter test in both Houses of Parliament. This comes after Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati declared that she will vote for the government on FDI in retail in the Rajya Sabha. This has assured the UPA of the much-needed numbers ahead of the vote. The other fence-sitter from Uttar Pradesh, the Samajwadi Party, has announced it will stage a walkout. Mayawati on Thursday turned the debate on FDI in the Rajya Sabha into an attack on the BJP. Maya attacked BJP leader Sushma Swaraj saying she had a 'sour grapes' syndrome. Sour grapes indeed it was for the BJP berating the BSP for its turn. "Yesterday they voted against FDI, today they are with FDI. They need to explain what happened overnight," BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad hit back. The BJP now seems to be realising that in politics there are no permanent enemies or friends. If Mayawati led the charge against the UPA in the nuclear deal, she's been seen to be bailing out the UPA not just with outside support but recently in the Presidential election too. Her reward could be the passage of the SC/ST quota bill. The government was certainly speaking the language of Mayawati. "Mayawati has voted against the politics of the BJP," Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kamal Nath said. It wasn't just relief for the government but for the investor too, with the Sensex soaring after Mayawati's announcement. As the debate comes to a conclusion on Friday, the government hopes it will send out the signal that India means business and that the world needs to invest in India. In the vote bank politics of UP, the message that Mayawati was sending out is that she's willing to go to any lengths to get the SC/ST quota bill passed, even aligning with the UPA. But over the years, given the many U-turns, all political parties have taken over FDI in retail, the debate was reduced to one of compulsion over conviction where ideology is concerned. After Mayawati's support to the UPA, there is also a possibility that the half way figure, that is 118 after SP's abstention, may go further down because the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, which is an alliance with the NDA in the state of Jharkhand abstained from the Lok Sabha vote on Wednesday. If JMM abstains in Friday's vote also, the half way mark remains 117 and the government gets that number. Set for a victory on FDI in retail, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kamal Nath has said that the government will also bring in legislations like FDI in insurance and pension in this session itself. "My confidence is based on the discussion I had with all the political parties including the BJP over the past 10 days that they have differences over one or two financial bills. We are trying to converge on that and we will converge. We will find convergence with the BJP and we will bring it in," Kamal Nath said. The numbers in Rajya Sabha: HOUSE STRENGTH - 244 HALF-WAY 122 FOR FDI 117 CONG (70) + NCP (7) + DMK (7) + OTH (7) + RJD (2) + NOM (9) + BSP (15) AGAINST FDI 99 NDA (64) + LEFT (14) + TMC (9) + ADMK(5) + BJD(7) ABSTAIN 9 SP (9) After SP's abstention, the total strength comes down to 235 and the half way mark comes down to 118.

South Africa's President Visits Angola to Bolster Ties
South Africa's President Jacob Zuma is visiting Angola, Africa's third largest economy, and the continent's second-biggest oil producer. This is Mr. Zuma's second trip since 2009, and he is expected to shore up economic and political ties with an aim to increase South African exports and cooperation in the oil sector.

x

 South Africa and Angola have long had tight diplomatic and economic ties, but South African officials said they want to pick up the pace of trade with the southern African oil giant.

 Foreign ministry spokesman Clayson Monyela said Zuma and Angolan President Jose Eduardo dos Santos will discuss how to advance other existing agreements, but that trade is the focus of Wednesday's visit.

 "The main concern for South Africa in particular is that there has been a slow progress with regards to the implementation of those agreements," said Monyela. "This visit today is supposed to [clear] whatever blockages may be there, particularly in the area of trade. The country of Angola remains a major trade partner and we are quite keen to take the trade figures to a higher level."

 Angola's main exports to South Africa are petroleum and diamonds, with petroleum products accounting for nearly 90 percent of the trade.

 Angola's government recently announced a plan to increase its oil production to 1.84 million barrels a day. In Africa, only Nigeria produces more than that.

 South Africa is the continent's economic powerhouse, with the highest gross domestic product in Africa.

 The World Economic Forum last year also ranked South Africa as the continent's most competitive economy. It's the only African nation in the G20 group of the world's top 20 economies. South Africa is also the newest member of BRICS, a group of emerging economies comprising Brazil, Russia, India and China.

 That group said building Africa's poor and ailing infrastructure is a priority, and the group plans to start its own development bank to address such issues - though it's not yet clear whether the bank will loan only to its five members, or beyond.

 The majority of Angola's infrastructure was destroyed during a decades-long civil war that ended in 2002, and the lack of proper roads, public services and transport lines has hurt the nation's competitiveness.

 Zuma's first state visit as president was to Angola.<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.voanews.com/content/south-africas-president-visits-angola-to-bolster-ties/1584963.html"/><meta name="syndication-source" content="http://www.voanews.com/content/south-africas-president-visits-angola-to-bolster-ties/1584963.html"/>

Healthy snacks for fundraisers ( ideas please)
You could do sliced apples in a small bag, carrots/celery in a bag, grapes, any kind of fruit.
You could try baked chips, pretzels, sun chips &/or bottled water. Those will appeal to kids, and are a little healthier than regular. Buy bulk in big box stores & sell for $ 1 each. We have done this at our school with great success. Also as was said, popcorn and fruit ice pops aren't necessarily unhealthy.
A parent sent in homemade zucchini muffins and mini zucchini bread loafs for our recent fundraisers. They were really good and we made $100 on her muffins and loafs alone. Each sold for $1 a muffin or loaf and worth every penny. Some were regular, with chocolate chips, with nuts and everything (chips and nuts).
You could do veggies and peanut butter, Jiffy brand sales individually wrapped single servings for pretty cheap. Bag that with 3 or 4 celery sticks.
You could revisit the popcorn idea but without butter, most kids wouldn't even notice. Popcorn is actually a very healthy snack it's the salt and butter that makes it bad.
Do you have to do food? how about selling little paperback books?
Start with basic popcorn in a bag, shake some Parmesan cheese on it, toss in some almonds and kid size/portion it smaller. Get little snack sized ziplock bags and make a trail mix, like nuts, dried cherries or craisins or raisins. Take a recipe for oatmeal or peanut butter bars, use a melon baller for 1inch portions, bake the 'bites' and put 4 in a portion. If you roll them in sugar n cinnamon they trick kids in to thinking yum before nutritious. Have fun and remember, kids are visual consumers. If it looks healthy, Amanda is right. Kids won't want it. It's all about balancing the junk food with the nutritious. Kids won't like carrot cake if you point out the carrots. But stick a piece of candy corn on the top...

New In: Bimba & Lola Bag!
When I went to Bimba & Lola, I really wasn't looking to buy anything - obviously that didn't happen -
I must give credit to the sales lady that brought out every bag that was in the store & in storage, until we found the perfect one*. It has a long strap & a short strap, the size is perfect because it fits my laptop but it's still not super large, the color goes with everything & the material is also slightly weatherproof, so I don't have to take extreme care of it...
I also ended up buying a make up bag for my sister - she found a better use of it though since it's now her pencil case
*I'm very particular about costumer service - it's something I pay very close attention to... do you?

I have seen Bimba & Lola bags in several blogs and am really interested in their collections but I don't know where are they selling those.. definitely not in Estonia :P
btw, customer service means a lot to me as well!
Maikeni blogi - part of meI have to admit I've never heard of this brand though Bimba sounds really cute! :D
Customer service means a lot to me too. I deeply dislike when the salesperson frowns at me when I go into their shop, then buries herself in a laptop. I think even if they don't feel the best that day, they should try to make me stay and buy something!
