Hoesch reaction
The Hoesch reaction or Houben–Hoesch reaction is an organic reaction in which a nitrile reacts with an arene compound to form an aryl ketone. The reaction is a type of Friedel-Crafts acylation with hydrogen chloride and a Lewis acid catalyst.
An example is the synthesis of 1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)ethanone from phloroglucinol:[1]
A ketimine is isolated as an intermediate reaction product. The attacking electrophile is possibly[2] a species of the type R-C+=NHCl−. The arene must be electron-rich i.e. phenol or aniline type. A related reaction is the Gattermann reaction in which hydrocyanic acid not a nitrile is used.
The reaction is named after Kurt Hoesch[3] and Josef Houben[4] who reported about this new reaction type in respectively 1915 and 1926.
The mechanism of the reaction involves two steps. The first step is a nucleophilic addition to the nitrile with the aid of a polarizing Lewis acid, forming an imine, which is latter hydrolyzed during the aqueous workup to yield the final aryl ketone.

"I really enjoyed the film. Thanks for the opportunity to see it online! "
"I heard so much about this movie and decided to watch it for the holidays. Very intense and thought provoking. The execution scene was unlike anything I've ever seen before. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who want to go behind the scenes of death row! "
"It's a sick, sick, sick world !!! "
"The death penalty and "executions" are still part of our society in America. It's going to go away any time soon. This movie deals with harsh reality of an execution in the electric chair (still legal in some states, believe it or not). This film doesn't hold back, and I'm sure that offends quite a few people. I love the fact that this movie puts the execution process in your face and through the eyes of the two filmmakers, one is for and one against the execution, the film allows the audience to decide if this is right or wrong. That's huge in my opinion since so many movies try to make statements that are driven by an agenda. The final half hour of this movie is amazing and truly puts the audience on death row unlike anything I've ever seen before. BRAVO! "
"One of the most intense movies I've ever seen. I felt like a fly on the wall during the last half hour or so of the film. I'm sure this movie will fire up a few folks who just don't understand the unique style of this film but that's ok. Maybe they should just go out and see a Disney movie instead! "
"OMG this movie was nothing like I thought. It was intense but very entertaining. It's not for those who want to be spoon feed with a traditional story that's been told a million times before. This film is very unique. If you are looking for the same old thing then you won't like this film. If you want something that will push the art of visual storytelling then you will love this original work of art! "
" I watched the movie and it is very moving. Very, very well done, thank you. "
"All I can say is WOW! Thank you for allowing me to watch the unforgettable and moving film. Never quite seen anything like it. I'll be sure to tell people about it. If you have any theatrical screenings in the Chicago area please post it. Mr. Moore's back story is amazing and so was his performance. Loved Cabana too. It's a shame he's no longer with us. I understand that there's been a lot of talk about whether or not the execution is real. In my opinion it was real but it really doesn't matter if it was or not. All I know is that I view the capital punishment issue in a whole different way now. I was absolutely 100% for executions and now after seeing the film I'm not so sure about it. I can make a case for both sides. The fact that this film is making me question the entire process says everything. Movies like "Dead Man Walking", "The Green Mile" and other high profile death row films never affected me the way that this film does. That's the power for this movie. Thank you again. "
"Never seen a movie like this. Loved it and will recommend it to my friends. "

Memories Dinner TheaterRead MoreIn the 1930s, big bands and lauded musicians played a famous bar called Weilers and would one day become Memories Dinner Theater. The music bounced off the very same 2,500-square-foot maple dance floor, tamarack log ceiling, and twin stone fireplaces that remain today, though Memories has since expanded its entertainment options beyond song and dance. As guests feast on three-course meals, the theater's roster of top-notch actors tackle dramas, musicals, audience-interactive murder mysteries, and comedies. The laughs continue on Chicken Comedy nights, when funnyman Rob Haswell hosts renowned comedians whose jokes keep diners chortling in between bites not of rubber, but of broasted chicken and food from an unlimited buffet.1077 Lake Dr.Port Washington, WI US
Fred Astaire Dance Studio - Menomonee FallsRead MoreThe consortium of professional instructors at Fred Astaire Dance Studios, which was cofounded by the legendary toe tapper himself, shepherds students of all ages and skill levels through lessons that span the style spectrum. Low-pressure private sessions allow enthusiastic teachers to fine-tune individual students' techniques and form, using their expert eyes and mechanical dancing shoes preprogrammed to do the Charleston. Patrons can learn how to cavort through classic waltz and fox-trot romps or swivel through the modern steps of salsa, swing, or samba. For dancers hoping to hoof it up in a social setting, the group practice parties provide a one-night extravaganza of instruction and demonstrations.N87 W17317 Main StMenomonee Falls, WI US
To The Pointe Performing ArtsRead MoreFor the students of To The Pointe Performing Arts, no dance step is just a dance step. Because the school follows a holistic approach to learning dance, every step comes with a bounty of knowledge—its place in the style, its cultural origin, the muscle movements it requires, and the discipline required to master it. Whether they're 6-year-olds encountering their first tap shoes or high-school students refining their skills in Russian ballet technique, the team of experienced dance instructors make it their business to forge not only great dancers but educated citizens of the world. In addition to youth classes, the studio also offers DanceFit and tap classes for adult students.1115 Cottonwood AveHartland, WI US
Fred Astaire Dance Studio WisconsinRead MoreIn 1947, on New York City's Park Avenue, the first Fred Astaire Dance Studio—cofounded by the eponymous toe tapper himself—opened its doors to the public. More than six decades later, now boasting schools across North America, the dancing institution still adheres to the legendary Mr. Astaire's curriculum and instruction techniques. Specializing in social ballroom and competitive dances, the schools' current consortium of professional instructors shepherds students of all ages and skill levels through dance lessons that span from classic ballroom and foxtrot romps to the modern steps of salsa, swing, or mambo. In addition to classes, the studio hosts social practice parties where up to 40 students hone newly acquired rug-cutting capabilities. As foot-charming music blares from the speakers, instructors work to cultivate a lively social setting where each guest can dance, mingle, and surgically correct their second left foot without fear of embarrassment.15760 W Capitol DrBrookfield, WI US
Milwaukee Symphony OrchestraRead MoreGreat symphony orchestras can breathe new life into centuries-old works of art, but few can excel in looking to the future as well. For more than half a century, the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra has done just that, enriching its community while drawing upon innovative technologies to reach listeners across the country. Its nationally syndicated radio broadcast, for instance, has filled the airwaves for more than four decades, transmitting the sounds of the MSO's 83 musicians to some 3.8 million listeners and their 7.6 million pets. The the orchestra also became the county's first to offer live recordings for download through iTunes. But it's not all internet and radio-play here?the MSO's pioneering spirit extends into its music, where it has premiered works by composers such as Philip Glass, Roberto Sierra, and Marc Neikrug.700 N Water StMilwaukee, WI US
First Stage Children's TheaterRead MoreThis theater group has been staging children's shows based on both timeless stories and modern adaptations for more than 25 years. On select Saturday afternoons throughout the season, the center also hosts free family workshops that help kids to better understand the themes and messages behind each play.325 West Walnut StreetMilwaukee, WI US

December 26, 2009 7:27 by kippreport
The Foreign Ministry will issue permanent resident visas for wives and children of expatriate workers in the Kingdom without considering their profession, Al-Yaum Arabic daily reported.
"The ministry's office in Riyadh issued such recruitment visas for three days last week and stopped it temporarily. It is expected that the ministry would resume the service next month," a ministry source told the paper.
The news is a relief for many of the seven million expatriate workers, who are unable to bring their families on resident visas due to their profession written on their iqamas.
The Foreign Ministry and the Recruitment Office only issued permanent resident and visit visas to those in white-collar jobs such as engineers, doctors and executives. The Al-Yaum report said the ministry would only look at the financial status of the applicant. "The family visa is no [longer] linked with profession," the source said. He said the ministry stopped processing applications in order to implement the new criteria.
"This is great news for thousands of professionals like me who are unable to bring their wives and children to the Kingdom because of the profession in iqama," said Shabeer Ali, a computer engineer based in Jeddah.
1 Comment
As per the news publised on 26.12.209 that family visa is no more connected with the profession. But so far it is not implemented.
Pls advise where I can apply visa for my family.
Best Regards
Mohd Hasan Khan

Chance is one cellullar organism that was artificially separated from Paragon in a teleport experiment. Since then, he has tried to follow his "spiritual guide" footsteps, fighting crime in unconventional ways. Whatever other reasons or motives he has, he's not telling (even more so, because he seems to be absolute mute). In those skirmishes he's involved, his stances are always enigmatic: he uses his powers in clever ways, but those heroes who rely on groupwork or tactical attack go crazy, because Chance doesn't seem to follow any plan - or, at least, no one has ever acknowledged any.
(My first 2013 post: happy new year, everyone! I hope the lack of an origin - Chance was thought to be an enigma to the heroes in the game world - don't turn you down. A sort of "deus ex machina", Chance comes to help the heroes when they're somewhat in disarray. Character revised according to rules presented in ICONS Great Power book).

These easy-to-make glasses use infra-red LEDs to obscure your face from cameras... and, perhaps most usefully, from ubiquitous CCTV observation. This is going to the top of our list of things to make Cory for his birthday. Anti-Paparazzi Sunglasses [Metacafe via Red Ferret]
DIY anti-CCTV glasses
• Discuss this post in our forums
28 Responses to "DIY anti-CCTV glasses"
This will work for most video and CCTV cameras , but anything fancier than a point and shoot still camera has an infra red filter that will keep this from working.( or a Leica M8 )
On the other hand , it will annoy the hell out of night vision wielding security people in movie theaters.
When you put these on, do all the billboards suddenly say "OBEY!" ?
I think the freaking glowing alien effect is at least as cool as the privacy aspects. In fact, I see immediate applications for low-budget film effects.
In the (short lived)Marvel comics series "Punisher 2099″ The Punisher of the future had a similar device that would hide his identity from CCTV cameras, except it went one step further and projected a Skull where his face should be.
Don't most LEDs have a fairly directional beam?
So unless you're looking directly at the camera, or find some way to diffuse the light…
Oh come on. There's taking the piss out of intimidating and oppressive government foolery, and then there's anarchism. These things will allow people to take away what small help CCTV ever was, are they really a good thing to popularize?
Fun, but…
1. You'll never get away with these in an airport.
2. If someone's actually WATCHING the camera, you'll become a target PDQ.
CCTVs don't offer a significant (or even measurable) benefit to society- their impact on crime is one of relocation, not prevention. even a first-year law enforcement student could tell you that the best way to cut down on violent crime is the modification of socioeconomic conditions, not spying on people and treating everyone like a criminal because anyone might be one. i see these as a great way to drive home the point that the government has no business treating me like a common crook because doing their job properly is too difficult for lazy, corrupt politicians.
in fact, these are pretty harmless. a criminal could get a ski-mask, and obscure himself from CCTVs *and* other people. i don't see how these would promote anarchy any more than a pair of stockings pulled over the head, or a halloween mask. they say "i don't mind being seen by other people, but i'm not cool with being spied on", which nicely sums up my opinion on the matter. how 'bout you?
The effect in the video is faked. An IR led driven by a single button battery wouldn't cause anything close to that kind of glare.
@7 I'm not sure about that – those little button batteries are available as nominally 3V batteries – the charge wouldn't last long, but while it does, would it not be the same as a couple of A cells?
@5 "Anarchism"? Hello Inverse Square, the late 19th Century called, it would like its bogeyman back. The term you are after is "terrorism".
@ Inverse Square:
There's taking the piss out of intimidating and oppressive government foolery, and then there's anarchism. These things will allow people to take away what small help CCTV ever was
Er, yes; exactly. I certainly don't regard these glasses as some sort of prank, but as a serious tool to render CCTV even more redundant than it already is.
They don't have any ballast resistors! The current could get very high. And they are using lithium batteries! Perhaps the exploding batteries will scare off the paparazzi.
Interesting, but impractical, except for maybe a handful of celebrities or convenience store robbers. Other than that, it's just another battery-burner. What's more, these things will draw attention faster than a slaughterhouse draws flies, so if you're not famous or robbing people, what's the point?
Fake. You need a load resister or you burn out the LEDs.
The video has also been post processed, as the glow does not track with the head movements. I expected better of BoingBoing.
"I expected better of BoingBoing" is never really going to be a criticism that works with me. Your opinion is your opinion, but it doesn't become magically more valid because you think that we should share it.
And I know jack and squat about electronics but even I know you can run an LED without a resistor just fine, especially in a hacked up jobber like this.
@ 3: I totally remember Punisher 2099. I was a bigger Spider-Man 2099 fan back then, but awesome callback!
Why should infrared light have effect on normal cameras that only respond to visible light?
Every hot item is an infrared light source. But did you ever see an hot item "glow" on an photograph that wouldn't glow in reality?
@7: Relocation means effort and thus a small amount of discouragement. Changing socioeconomic conditions would be nice too but would be kinda difficult and this'd still help
@9: Meh, I meant the kind of obnoxious and shallow anarchism you see today, not quite the collapse of society.
"The other wire makes contact when you put the glasses on." I know it's only a couple of volts but I'd prefer not to have that juice running across my scalp. It messes with my happy thoughts. So make sure you connect the cells the same way round to minimise the possibility of making a plus to minus circuit.
Regarding drawing attention to oneself quickly. Do you think every CCTV has someone watching it 24/7, its not feasably possible. The more surveillance that happens the larger the pool to sit and analyze them. At best suspicious stuff like you get looked at after the fact. Yes you come up highly suspicious, and if someone happens to be looking at the monitor as you move around an area they would probably dispatch someone, but say if its not just YOU who is wearing them, say if every third person is wearing these Corey Heart Sunglasses (yes I date and geolocate myself with that statement). Then bringing the whole lot of sunglass wearing people in becomes more and more trouble. Soon you have people who are trying to enact laws barring the use of this technology… or the sale of IR LEDs. Which starts to show how stupid all this survelliance is, to not us either.
what law says you can't wear these? I see many variants, am getting to work on some. Mixing IR with coloured visible LEDs opens the "jewelery excuse too.
#9: No, the internal resistance of button batteries is generally so high that you can't get more than a few milliamps out continuously. There are plenty of tiny keychain flashlights for sale that consist of little more than an LED and a button battery. But they aren't bright like spotlights, and all they'd look like on a video camera is a glowing dot, regardless of whether they were emitting visible light or IR.
When did boing boing get to be so popular with the stupids and the hostile idiots?
Of course these work, People were making these things 20 years ago in art school out of TV remote controls, although a flashlight bulb through a red gel and a congo blue gel sandwiched together works pretty well too.
ALL video camera and electronic still camera sensors are at least as sensitive to IR light as they are to visible light. Higher priced cameras may have a "hot mirror" filter to keep out the IR since it washes out colors and makes things like black synthetic fabric look pink and makes some fabric transparent etc.
In cameras used for surveillance , front door intercoms, and Paris Hilton videos , "see in the dark" IR sensitivity is seen as a feature not a flaw. If you look at a surveillance CCTV camera , you will notice they often have eight or so IR LEDs around the lens. If the LEDs are bright enough light sources to illuminate a parking garage , they are way more than bright enough to wash out the picture if they are in the picture.
They aren't going to do much in daylight , but at a tollbooth or parkinglot at night or your local ATM they should work just fine.
Boy, that link Takuan made is a hoot, check this
High Definition Lighting allows cameras to provide crystal clear, high signal images during the hours of darkness.
The breakthrough in HD lighting is made possible with VirtuaVia's high power LED technology delivering increased power on scene.
High definition cameras require high definition lighting.
#23: It's not clear to me who you're calling stupid or an idiot, nor whether you're agreeing or disagreeing that the starburst-like glare effect presented in the video (which has since been removed from Metacafe) was faked. I don't disagree with anything you wrote, except for assuming that a single (well, in this case it was two) 5mm IR LEDs driven at a few milliamps by an unspecified button battery would be nearly as bright as the ones built into the camera as an illuminator, presumably driven to near their max current.
is there greasepaint, makeup, transparent IR reflective slop that makes you look sweaty in person and a glaring white blob on IR CCTV?
There is some guy who even won a golden nica (prix ars electronica) in interactive art.
He constructed a device which projects an image on a surface when the surface is photographed with a flash, see http://www.juliusvonbismarck.com/fulgurator/index.html (german).
Video removed from metacafe? Is metacafe evil???
I don't know whether the video is faked or not as the video has been removed, however it is definitely possible to blind a camera with an infra-red LED and also definitely possible to power an infra-red LED with one of these batteries and no resistor. I'm no electronics expert but I've tried it.
I was trying to get Johnny Wu's Wiimote electronic whiteboard thing to work a while ago and it required an Infra-red LED. I didn't put in any resistor into the circuit and my method of testing if the LED was working was pointing it at my digital camera.
However the directional thing was an issue. Unless the LED was pointing at the camera all you got was a tiny dot. Once the pointing at the camera all you got was light.

Sulfur-Bridged Annulene-TCNQ Co-Crystal: A Self-Assembled ''Molecular Level Heterojunction'' with Air Stable Ambipolar Charge Transport Behavior
An alternatively stacked donor-acceptor complex from solution is obtained. As a self-assembled "molecular level heterojunction", this crystal displays stable ambipolar transport behaviors in ambient atmosphere. The balance hole and electron transport properties are rationalized through theoretical considerations from band structure calculation, theoretical analysis on super-exchange effects in the intermolecular electronic couplings as well as molecular reorganization energy.

SAN JOSE, CA and SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/24/13 -- Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) and NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) today announced an expanded partnership to deliver new converged infrastructure innovation to unify branch office, data center and public cloud infrastructures under the FlexPod architecture. The partnership expansion includes efforts in technology integration, solution development, and continued go-to-market collaboration -- all designed to make it easier for customers to deploy and access next-generation cloud infrastructure solutions.
Current IT architectures comprise a fragmented combination of infrastructure along with public, private and hybrid clouds offered by different organizations and addressing distinct customer needs. Through a shared vision of a unified data center, Cisco and NetApp offer the ability to simplify deployment, management and orchestration -- connecting enterprise clouds to service providers, enterprises to branch offices, consumers to enterprises, and clouds to clouds.
Deeper integration across computing, networking, storage and orchestration components of FlexPod, combined with broader support for its open ecosystem of partners, will greatly simplify data center deployment and management, deliver greater budget efficiency, reduce risk, and increase agile business responsiveness.
Cisco and NetApp now boast more than 2,100 FlexPod customers across more than 35 countries and over 700 channel partners. Cisco and NetApp are building on this momentum by expanding their successful decade-long partnership to deliver greater innovation, including:
- Deeper FlexPod Architecture Integration: Cisco and NetApp are forging deeper integration across Cisco® Unified Data Center solutions, NetApp FAS Storage Systems, and FlexPod ecosystem technology partners to create a common foundation for data centers and service providers, from branch office implementations to cloud-scale, multi-data center deployments.
FlexPod solutions will provide the ability to manage up to 10,000 servers, allowing organizations to aggregate several FlexPod racks and enable multihop Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCOE). These solutions, tuned for service providers and distributed enterprises, enable infrastructures to be scaled with predictive performance and support.
FlexPod continues to lead on the integration of infrastructure management tools and will support Cisco UCS® Manager 2.1, UCS Central and Cisco's recently acquired Cloupia products. In addition, support for Cisco Intelligent Automation for Cloud (Cisco IAC) allows cloud management solutions for FlexPod customers. Deeper integration across FlexPod at the platform level, as opposed to at the component level, will enable FlexPod to be seamlessly orchestrated by partner solutions, including Microsoft System Center and Citrix CloudPlatform powered by Apache CloudStack.
Cisco and NetApp will also integrate Flash technologies at the host and storage levels, to accelerate performance across all areas of the converged infrastructure. At the server level, applications running on Flash-optimized Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco UCS) servers can be further accelerated with NetApp Flash Accel, while at the controller and array levels, technologies such as NetApp Flash Cache and Flash Pools can be used to access cached data faster.
- FlexPod for Cloud Service Providers: To accelerate momentum in the service provider market Cisco and NetApp are developing flexible, massively scalable FlexPod solutions capable of handling multi-data-center service provider architectures. The set of solutions will bring together NetApp Clustered ONTAP and NetApp FAS storage systems with Cisco UCS servers and Cisco Nexus® 7000 Series Switches to create dynamically provisioned pools of server, storage and network resources that can be scaled up and scaled down by service providers depending on application requirements. These solutions will use Cisco's Virtualized Multiservice Data Center (VMDC) architecture and will include management and orchestration solutions from Cisco and from ecosystem partners such as BMC Software and, in the future, from open source providers.
- Branch Office Solution: Cisco and NetApp are partnering to extend the capabilities of ExpressPod to meet the compute, network and storage needs of branch offices. ExpressPod shares a similar converged infrastructure approach as FlexPod, and as a result, it is ideally suited to branch office deployments with an easy upgrade path to FlexPod as the needs of the branch grow. This easy-to-deploy architecture can be configured to offer greater interoperability with the core organizational data center, enabling branch locations to take advantage of some of the biggest cost-saving trends in IT, such as virtualization and cloud computing. ExpressPod includes support for VMware vSphere® and will soon include support for Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V.
- FlexPod Application Validation: Cisco and NetApp are expanding solution coverage to add more mission-critical applications and private cloud solutions for the datacenter. Mission critical solutions include Oracle Database and applications, SAP® BusinessObjects business intelligence and the SAP HANA® platform, and private cloud offerings include Microsoft private cloud and Citrix CloudPlatform.
Supporting Quotes:
Padmasree Warrior, chief technology and strategy officer, Cisco
"The past 10 years of partnering with NetApp have proven to be successful in bringing a Cisco validated, FlexPod architecture to our customers. Building on that success, we're now expanding our partnership to deliver deeper technology integration and broader solution development across the unified data center for an open, scalable, multicloud infrastructure. Together we can help our customers use their current data center investment to address the challenges of a mobile-cloud era."
Manish Goel, executive vice president, Product Operations, NetApp
"NetApp and Cisco share a common vision for the future of the data center and will continue to collaborate on innovations that connect organizations under a holistic cloud architecture. Our development, sales, and channel teams will work even closer to deliver new solutions that broaden the market opportunities for both companies and our partners, and help customers gain a competitive advantage from their flexible and efficient agile data center infrastructure."
Simon Aspinall, chief of global markets, Virtustream
"With the FlexPod solution from Cisco and NetApp, we can deploy private and public cloud solutions tailored to our enterprise customers' individual requirements for mission-critical applications. The ability with FlexPod to dynamically integrate compute, memory, network and storage is unique in the market, giving our cloud and IaaS solutions a clear advantage."
