See how this wise old owl can help us be better at focus in global investing and business.
Last week's article Micro Business & Global Investing Success looked at the importance of concentration… of concentration in business…. investing and life.
The article argued that focused experience and information… focused beliefs, focused values and focused determination are threads that weave happiness and success.
Then this article shared how modern media…. especially the internet… might be detracting from concentration and even retraining our thought process to a shallower level.
It asked, "What will be the global consequences be if today's children globally are being trained to have shallower thought?"
A reader replied to this message and said:
"Wow, Gary, your latest posting about concentration really caught my attention and made me slow down long enough to read (not scan) your entire article. As a teacher, I often plan lessons on my computer. I use the Internet to research information in order to supplement my lessons. My problem has been that I often spend so much time scanning websites and jumping from link to link that I lose my focus and it can take hours to write a simple 30-minute lesson.
"I, too, have worried about becoming addicted to the Internet. I was bragging to my friends that I don't watch television, when I realized that my addiction to the world wide web could be just as brain numbing, or cause even more withdrawal symptoms than watching television.
"One way I have helped myself is by taking my laptop to a place where I don't have Internet access. First, I make a mind map of my ideas on paper, and then I start putting my ideas on MS Word, inserting bolded notes in areas that I want to research or confirm later.
"I have had the same intuitive feeling that something was changing in our brains from the effects of reading online 'where portals lead us on from one text, image, or video to another while we're being bombarded by messages, alerts, and feeds'. As a reading teacher who works with children struggling to read, I have noticed a profound difference in those students who spend a lot of time surfing the Internet from those who don't spend much time on the computer. The students who are addicted to surfing the Internet, text messaging, and video gaming, cannot seem to slow down enough to focus and read words on a printed page. It is almost as if it is painful for them to read this way. I have suggested to the school administration that these students seem to have a different way of reading that makes concentration difficult for them. Now a book delves into this theory.
"I will read the book, and I continue to look forward to your intuitive and timely postings."
Yet concentration needs to be woven with diversification because in this material world, there is always something we do not know… no matter how much we concentrate. The quantum aspects of our existence are so complex that our logic can only see them as chaotic.
This is because of "sensitive dependence on initial conditions." Take the weather as an example. The outcome of the weather… despite all our advances in understanding is unpredictable because it is so susceptible to the initial circumstances. Investing and business… our lives are the same…. unpredictable.
Who knows exactly where an individual cloud will be in the sky ten years from now? Or where we will be or any particular economy or investment?
We had an example at our farm of the importance of matching concentration with diversification. We always have a lot of excitement at the farm when we are preparing for our courses on international business and investing as many of our speakers come and stay in our cabins. We often have a lot of rushing to get everything in order.
Our helpers were rushing around when they a screech owl in the barn and wanted us to come down and see it.
We did.
I took my camera along and these shots perfectly depict in pictures what this message is trying to explain in words.
This is a bird's eye view. Can you see the owl?
Perhaps and you see the whole picture, the rafters the steps, the walls.
But a bird's eye view requires a complete picture, many dots we can connect.
See the owl better now?
Our fine feathered friend is easier to see. We know him better now.
Can we creep closer?
Yes. This was one brave owl and now we feel like we really know him.
However I decided to take my chances and walk up the steps. This and a zoom lens let us really see "Mr. Wise One".
We see the color of his eyes and can literally count his feathers. This is what we try to do with our international investing and our micro business… get into all the details.
This often causes the downfall of a business… having too much concentration on the small stuff.
When we get too close… can we see the walls? Remember those rafters and the steps? Where are they now?
Global investing requires a complete view seeing both the broad horizons as well as the narrow perspective.
If we are too caught up seeing the trees, we miss the forest and having taken a glopbal view, we have expanded our forest… a lot!
So this week we will review several global investment and business thoughts blended with the idea of attaining the correct blend of concentration and diversification.
Today's review is on Jyske Global Asset management's Medium Risk Portfolio.
JGAM's management team use a lot of concentrated research. They collect data from Jyske Bank, Morgan Stanley, Bank Credit Analysts and many other sources. The members of their portfolio management then filter this concentrated data through their knowledge and experience. Then they meet regularly to further concentrate all this data into a group consensus.
Hundreds of years of investing experience concentrated into a decision making process.
Yet that process creates a very diversified portfolio.
Here is JGAM's current medium risk portfolio for investors with $200,000.

We also really enjoy the restaurants and coffee shops along Nyhavn.
We need concentration and diversification for good global investing and business because we live in chaos.
When we combine our logic… intuition and experience we dramatically enhance the chances for success. One way to integrate these three assets of logic… intuition and experience is with music.
This quote is about Chaos Theory
"A Brief Introduction confirms a relation between music and the quantum aspects of our existence.
"Music can be created using fractals as well. Using the Lorenz attractor, Diana S. Dabby, a graduate student in electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has created variations of musical themes. ("Bach to Chaos: Chaotic Variations on a Classical Theme", Science News, Dec. 24, 1994) By associating the musical notes of a piece of music like Bach's Prelude in C with the x coordinates of the Lorenz attractor, and running a computer program, she has created variations of the theme of the song. Most musicians who hear the new sounds believe that the variations are very musical and creative.

2015 ScheduleSchedule 2015 Seminars and Courses
Delegates enjoy taking breaks at our winter courses in Mount Dora.
We conduct our summer camps at Jefferson Landing in West Jefferson North Carolina.
Join us in balmy Central Florida in the winter and the Cool Blue Ridge in summer.
Join Merri and me for all the courses and seminars that we'll conduct to help you gain positive solutions to your economic, financial and lifestyle concerns.
Here are the courses we currently have scheduled in 2015. Course in bold conducted by Gary & Merri Scott
Oct. 10-11, 2015, West Jefferson, North Carolina. Multi Currency, Protect Against a Weak Dollar Investing Seminar. (Normally $799 or $999 for a couple)
Overcome Election DeceitTuesday, November 8, 2016, is the 58th US Presidential election. Plus elections for all of the seats in Congress and 34 in the Senate. How many deals will be made between now and then that could reduce our pocketbooks? What trade offs will be agreed that will weaken our personal freedom? Which agreements will fill our days with more red tape?
There is so much deceit in the political promises and so much deal making that has nothing to do with the country's or you and my good. What can we do to retake control? How can we see behind the scenes and stop the erosion of our rights and reductions in our standards of living?
Politically there may be little we can do, but here are two tools for our individual investing survival: numbers and words.
Numbers relate to value. Our wealth can survive today's political onslaught and grow by spotting investing value through mathematical precision. Good value strengthens wealth and beats back a deceitful world.
Words define the law. Words create laws that define our rights, ownership and freedom. These words are also used to take these benefits away. Those who write the laws always include sections that protect themselves and their common interests. A good attorney who understands how to use appropriate planning can use the same words to protect our income savings and rights.
As a run up to my 50th year of speaking and writing about savings and investments around the world I decided to ask my friends who are mathematical and legal geniuses to share a weekend with us to cut through the fog of rapid change and learn how to beat the system that seems so integrity challenged.
The idea of using math to find good value equity investments led me to ask mathematical analyst, Michael Keppler, to join us in the Blue Ridge for a seminar.
Michael is a brilliant mathematician. We have tracked his analysis for over 20 years. He continually researches international major stock markets and compares their value based on current book to price, cash flow to price, earnings to price, average dividend yield, return on equity and cash flow return. He compares each stock market's history. From this, he develops his Good Value Stock Market Strategy. His analysis is rational, mathematical and does not cause worry about short ups and downs.
Don't Red Line Your Investments
According to Keppler's analyses, an equally-weighted combination of good value markets offers the highest expectation of long-term risk-adjusted performance. His mathematical predictions have been eerily accurate as the red line below shows.
Each quarter Michael shares with me (and other professional investors) his "Total Return Predictions".
Click on chart to enlarge.
This chart shows the entire real-time forecasting history of Keppler for the KAM Equally-Weighted World Index, he started in 1993. Keppler contnually shows what his mathematic formulas predict for markets four years ahead. These numbers are based on mathematical relationships between price and value over the previous 15 years moving forward in monthly increments. In this way Keppler uses numbers to continually adjust to the ever-changing market norm.
Keppler's chart includes two remarkable episodes. The first in the period when global equity markets peaked and crashed over a five-year period from 1997 to 2001. Keppler's Equally-Weighted World Index predictions stayed above the upper forecast band and accurately predicted the recovery and how much global markets would rise.
The second remarkable period started in October 2008, when again Keppler's forecasts again accurately showed where markets would reach as they fell below the lower forecast band.
Imagine the extra profit professional investors have today when they invested in these depressed good value markets before they again rose.
Keppler's projections now indicate that global markets are expected to rise from between 2.1% and 13.0 % in the next three to five years.
Learn about Keppler's projections and about Asset Allocation from Michael Keppler in person at our Value Investing Seminar October 17 & 18 in Jefferson, North Carolina.
Learn how to also let the law work for you.
One way to protect our wealth and freedom is to have a good attorney who understands how to use appropriate planning so you can also be protected rather than hurt by the law.
I have also asked our friend of more than 30 years, Leslie Share, to speak at the October Value Investing seminar. Leslie is an attorney in Coral Gables, Florida who specializes in general, corporate and international taxation, estate and gift tax planning, internal revenue service matters at the agent and appeals level plus most important, he specializes in wealth preservation.
He has the highest possible Peer Review Rating by Martindale-Hubbell, Florida Super Lawyers and The Best Lawyers in America.
Leslie is the type of attorney who can help gain asset and wealth protection if you live in the US or abroad.
Cash in on the best opportunity in 32 years. Currency diversification has always been important for safety, but right now a multi currency opportunity is brewing and has more profit potential then we have seen in over three decades.
Our "Investing Seminars" started 32 years ago when one of the best set of three currency and equity conditions ever existed. Over these decades our semi annual seminars have updated what's going on in global investment markets and what to do. In all those years, few times have conditions offered as much long term opportunity as in 1982.
Now three the great economic conditions have returned.
Our October seminar will be at the Jefferson Landing Country Club.
Conditions have come together just as we saw at our first seminars in the 1980s. The US dollar, the US stock market and the price of oil are acting almost exactly as they did in the early 1980s. Knowing these conditions and why they have merged and what to do about them can help you create a fortune.
One way to tap this potential (we'll review this at the seminar) is to invest in Keppler's Good Value Country Strategy with ETFs (Country Index Exchange Traded Funds). For example there are currently ten good value developed markets, Australia, Austria, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Norway, Singapore and the United Kingdom. You can easily create a diversified portfolio in each or all of these ten countries with Country Index ETFs.
We review Country Index ETFs at the seminar.
Join Merri, me, Michael Keppler and Leslie Share. The "Value Investing Seminar" looks at how to protect purchasing power and pensions with value investing. The course teaches how to add safety and create profits by spotting multi currency and global equity cycles through good value mathematics.
Value Investing Outside the Box. Here is a partial syllabus of the seminar:
* See new breakout possibilities… in global investing.
* Benefits of early investments in an oil that's up 22.8 times in the past ten years.
* Beyond Gold. Three hard assets that protect against all currency erosion.
* The Small Country Effect. Why small markets rise more than large ones.
* Top Value small markets and how to easily invest small or large amounts.
* The best four currencies for the year ahead.
Few decisions are as important to your wealth as WHICH CURRENCIES to invest in. This has been our area of expertise since the 1970s. Learn how to use ETFs to gain multi currency diversification.
Details in this session also include:
* How to easily buy global currencies, shares and bonds.
* The benefits of investing in real estate in Small Town USA. We will share why the value is special and why we have been recommending good value real estate in this area since 2009.
* What's up with gold and silver. One session looks at my current position on gold and silver and asset protection. We review the state of the precious metal markets and potential problems ahead for US dollars – how interest rates at zero eliminate opportunity costs of diversification in precious metals and foreign currencies.
* New tax strategies. How to create businesses that earn income and reduce tax.
Gary Scott at a multi currency session.
The seminar begins with a 1000 Year Economic Review that leads us up to where markets are now and head for the next 474 days and beyond.
Learn how to:
* Find good investing value.
* Use multi currency portfolios.
* To use multi currency for diversification-speculation & hedge.
* Earn in water and agricultural investing.
* Gain with special situations now for aggressive growth

Test System Setup
Processor: Intel Core i5 750
Mainboard ASRock P55 Deluxe (P130 BIOS) (Supplied by ASRock)
Memory: Corsair Dominator GT CMD8GX3M4A1600C8 (Supplied by Corsair)
Hard Disk: Kingston SSD Now M (Intel X25-M 80GB SSD) (Supplied by Kingston)
Graphics Card: Zotac GTX 285 AMP! Edition 1GB (flashed to stock BIOS) (Supplied by Zotac)

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate RTM
Drivers: Intel INF 22.214.171.1245, ForceWare 190.62
With our testing we wanted to make sure the CPU stayed at its rated speed while we kicked up the speed on the RAM. We did this using the easy settings found on the ASRock P55. However, as with any testing that changes the internal core clock of the CPU you will see a performance increase over stock speeds. For our timings testing we predominantly played with the Latency and Command rate as they have the most direct effect on performance and stability.

I have been looking for a great broccoli recipe, and I think I have found it. Only change I made was to add 2-3 cloves of garlic, and do leave out the lemon juice (personal preferance). Thanks so much for sharing! I will have to make this again soon.
Heather, this was great. I added extra garlic and plenty of extra pepper. It is easy enough to make all the time but good enough to serve to guests. It will definatly make regular appearances on my dinner table!
Ahhh, I LOOOVE broccoli!! This is a really tasty way to prepare it. I also added a little more garlic. I decreased the salt to just a sprinkling and added about 1/2 tsp. or so of soy sauce. YUMMY!!! This would also be good with a broccoli/cauliflower mix. Thanks! ~Manda
What a wonderful way to prepare broccoli. I did increase the amount of garlic and added some gresh ginger which I think made a big difference. Thanks for something different!!!
Awesome! I really love broccoli and am usually extremely content to steam my broccoli with a little lemon juice and garlic salt. But this, was extra special, relatively healthy, and made a nice side dish for a special occasion holiday dinner with the hubby. (I made it with the Honey Mustard Basil Salmon http://www.food.com/recipe/honey-mustard-basil-salmon-95294) and was able to use the extra leftover lemon juice I squeezed this morning.
I always appreciate a recipe I can make from what I already have stocked in my pantry. I used a 1 lb. bag of frozen broccoli and the 5-10 minute steaming time was perfect to get the right shade of green.
It's a wonderful thing when the side dish outshines the entree, and I have to say this did. A wow with every bite.
Added more garlic and it was great!
This was a good recipe. one of my girls loved it and the other did not. I think next time I may use less lemon and more garlic. I may also saute the sauce in the last minute of the broccoli cooking.
Will use again. Thx!
We eat broccoli almost every night with dinner, so I'm always interested in different ways to serve it up. This is a great recipe. I loved the garlic flavor and the olive oil/lemon juice was a great combination. Thank you!
I used all the ingredients listed, but added more garlic. Used the lesser cooking time to keep my broccoli bright green. I enjoyed this side dish very much, but think I'll decrease the lemon next time. Nice way to serve broccoli! Made for Best of 2010 Tag game! Congrats for being included in the best!
Good side dish. I added a little more garlic and really enjoyed the lemony garlic flavor of this simple dish. Thanks HeatherFeather for sharing. Made for Healthy Choices Tag.

1. A woman has discovered during a live radio segment that her husband is in fact her half-brother.
The pair, who have a 6-year-old daughter together, had both been searching for their mothers for years after being abandoned as children.
They both knew they had mothers with the same name but put it down to coincidence.
2. After an extensive search, the woman was finally able to speak to her mother on Brazilian Radio Globo's The Time Is Now programme, a show that specialises in reuniting lost relatives.
In its report, the radio station changed the names, dates, and locations of those involved to protect the couple's identity.
At the end of the segment, the mother, Maria, revealed to her daughter, Adriana, that she also had a son called Leandro with a different man than her father.
"I don't believe that you're telling me this," the woman said. "Leandro is my husband."
3. Regardless of the revelation, the pair, who were never legally married, have reportedly said they are going to stay together. The Mirror quotes Adriana as saying:
Only death is going to separate us. All this happened because God wanted it to happen.
At first we were really knocked by it all, but we had a family meeting and told everyone that we are going to stay husband and wife, whatever anyone might think.
We have so many plans together. Nothing is going to break us up. Nothing.

Michael Curry Elected New Presiding Bishop
Rt. Rev. Michael Bruce Curry was elected and confirmed the 27th Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church during the 78th General Convention on Saturday, June 27.The House of Bishops elected Curry, presently Bishop of the Diocese of North Carolina, from a slate of four candidates on the first ballot. Curry received 121 votes of a total 174 cast. Diocese of Southwest Florida Bishop Dabney Smith received 21, Diocese of Southern Ohio Bishop Thomas Breidenthal, 19, and Diocese of Connecticut Bishop Ian Douglas, 13. The number of votes needed for election was 89. The House of Deputies then confirmed the election by a vote of 800 to 12.
The bishops of The Episcopal Church gathered at St. Mark's Cathedral in Salt Lake City for the election. After the vote was brought to the House of Deputies back at the Salt Palace Convention Center, Curry and his family arrived to address the deputies and visitors of General Convention.
Curry entered to joyous applause by the many gathered to welcome him as the new Presiding Bishop-Elect. In his remarks, Curry said, "Oh God love you. It really is a blessing to serve our church and our Lord in this way. I treasure this church, both the House of Deputies and the House of Bishops, and all of us."
Curry said he was baptized in the Episcopal Church, by way of the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. "This is the church where I learned about Jesus. We have ourselves a good God, and this is a good church. We are good and wonderful people."Both diocesan bishops Lillibridge and Reed were enthusiastic and positive in regards to the election of Curry. "Today was a very joyful day. I am excited about Curry's episcopacy in leading this church, and I have high hopes he can serve as the chief evangelist of our church," said Lillibridge.
Current Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori will continue to serve in her role, until a special liturgy is celebrated on All Saints Day, November 1, marking the beginning of Curry's ministry as Presiding Bishop at Washington National Cathedral.In an afternoon press conference, Curry expressed his gratefulness for Jefferts Schori and his appreciation of the other three candidates for Presiding Bishop.
He said he is blessed to call and act on the Jesus movement in the world. He imagines a world that looks more like God's dream and less like our nightmare. "I take seriously evangelism and witness, especially being a witness to social advocacy," said Curry. "I believe The Episcopal Church has something to offer in the public square; I believe we find ourselves seeking to be a reconciling agent. We can be a positive and proactive voice joining with others seeking to be the same."

Claimspriority, application Germany March 22, 1951 4 Claims. (Cl. 167-95) Many different contrast agents and preparations for diagnostic. Xaray examination, which mostly diifer less intheirmanner ofuse. than in their chemical constitution, have already .been proposed. Especially for examinations. of the stomach and intestines insoluble contrast agentsin the form of powders, above all barium sulphate, sometimes also thorium oxide and/or mixtures in powder form containing these substances, have how- For with the addition of water to a thin paste which must be swallowed: by the patient. With the aid of this method it is possible to show stomach and intestines radiographically, to recognize ulcers, narrowings or dilations, and to observe the movement of these organs. It is however, impossible to observe in this manner the process of digestion itself or to draw any conclusions concerning the presence or absence of certain digestive enzymes.
It has however already been proposed to dispense X- ray contrast agents in the form of capsules and suchlike, especially in order to avoid complaints or irritations of the stomach by such substances which easily cause irritations, or by such substances which are changed by the acid of the stomach.
It has also already been proposed to prepare small quantities of barium sulphate for inclusion in tablets or pills containing pharmaceutically active substances. Their use was however only for the purpose of determining whether tablets or pills of a certain composition guaranteed a good decomposition in the stomach. They thus served as a guide for the pharmaceutical preparation of pills or tablets similarly prepared, which are however free of barium, as to whether good decomposition and thus the desired action is achieved in their therapeutic application.
On the other hand it is possible with the aid of the formed X-ray contrast preparations, according to the present invention, to draw conclusions based on the time of the beginning decomposition of their cores, as to the quantity of enzymes present, respectively absent or insufliciently present, which attack the basic foodstuffs, such as fats, proteins and carbohydrates, and furthermore, to draw conclusions in respect of disturbances of the glands which produce the enzymes.
According to the present invention new compositions of matter are prepared, i. e. formed substances which contain a powdery inorganic contrast agent which is insoluble in water and incapable of resorption and contains in the molecule at least one atom of high molecular weight, e. .g. difiicultly soluble salts of bismuth (siliceous bismuth), barium silicate and silver iodide, especially barium sulphate or thorium oxide, in a core together with at least one suitable binding agent. This core is coated with one basic foodstuff, i. e. a fat or a protein or a carbohydrate. It is the purpose of this coating to protect thecore extensively from decomposition in liquids which do not contain the specific enzyme, so that the 2,801,203 Patented July 30, 1957 ICC coredoes not decompose .or only decomposes. after great delay after theimmersion of the formed contrast agent in such liquids, whereas decomposition in the presence of corresponding enzymes occurs very much faster or may only then become possible. This means that an enzyme splitting fats will attack the new product, when coated with fat, an enzyme splitting proteins will attack the new product when coated with a protein and the same applies tothe carbohydrates. This new composition of matter may :be dyed by therapeuticallyharmless dye-stuffs. Only such basic foodstuffs are suitable which are insoluble in water or diflicultly soluble without digestion enzymes or which are rendered insoluble or diffic-ultly soluble withoutrsuch enzymes by suitable means. These conditions are met by .manyinsoluble fats. Protein bodies are used which are solubleper se, but are made insoluble by suitable treatments. The carbohydrates must be insoluble in water, or ditficultly soluble, and diflicultly hydrolysable but they must be split up by digestion enzymes.
The invention will now be described in detail, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, wherein Figures 1 to 4 represent cross-sections through pills or tablets; and
Figures 510 8 represent perspective views of different forms of preparations according to the invention.
The formed X-ray contrast preparations used, according to the present invention, have a suitable form, e. g. the form of pills, tablets as in Figure 5, lentils, as in Figure 7, beans, as in Figure 8, or peas, pearls as in Figure 6 and the like. The core A of Figures 1, 2 and 3 which contains the actual contrast agent can be prepared according to the usual processes with the application of suitable known binding agents which guarantee decomposition in aqueous media, as for example, starch, sugar, pectin, dextrin, gum arabic, starch-syrup and such-like. The process of the preparation corresponds to the methods already known. For example, a granulated substance can be prepared with the addition of starch, talcum powder and such-like, from the X-ray contrast agent, which is then pressed into tablets, preferably in the form of lozenges, on tablet presses.
Likewise a. pill-mass can be prepared, from which pills of suitable sizes are formed with the aid of pilling machines, from X-ray. contrast agents with the aid of sugar, sugar syrup and other suitable binding agents. Furthermore small cores A, of Figure 2, for example granulated material, crystallised sugar and such-like can be coated by a mixture of barium sulphate and sugar in a coating drum until these formed bodies A2 possess the desired s1ze. 4
A layer B of one of the basic foodstuifs in suitable thickness is added to this formed body which is easily decomposed by means of the binding agent in water and which represents thecore, and which contains the actual X-ray contrast agent insoluble in water. For examination for fat splitting enzymes this coating B consists of a solid fat which melts above 37 C. and which can be of vegetable, animal or synthetic origin. Fats which have been prepared by catalytic hydrogenation (hardening) of liquid vegetable or animal oils or such solid fats which are obtained from liquid fats by cooling and separation of the parts which have not solidified, can of course be used. Fats of a melting point of 43-48" C. have proved to be especially suitable. By way of example the following fats may be mentioned: beef-tallow, mutton-tallow, hardened peanut-oil, hardened cotton-seed oil, hardened palm-oil, hardened whale-oil, hardened rapeoil, distearate of propyleneglycol and glycerine esters of fatty acids with a carbon-chain between 16 and 20 carbon atoms, as obtained when. oxidizing parafiin.
.ly l40-l50 C. for about half an hour.
For examination for protein splitting enzymes this coating layer consists of a soluble protein which is made insoluble in water and which then at the utterrnost is only capable of swelling to a small degree (or not at all). For this purpose the core e. g. in the form of lentil is'either coated with a protein which becomes insoluble by drying or heating or by treatment with aldehydes e. g. with formaldehyde, glyoxal or with tanning agentse. g. tannin or by treatment with thrombin, if fibrinogen was used. As protein may be used c. g. egg-albumimserumalbumin and serum-globulin. Especially suitable for coating formed X-ray contrast preparations is muscle protein treatment but for which, however, heat after-treatment is favourable, or fibrinogen, which has been'after-treated with thrombin.
For examination for carbohydrate splitting enzymes,
. such carbohydrates or mixtures thereof which swell in water very slowly and become water soluble in the I presence of carbohydrate-splitting enzymes are of special .advantage as a coating layer. agar-agar. especially together with high molecular dextrin A coating which contains has proved itself to be especially suitable. Furthermore,
-'by way of example, the following starches may be men'- tioned: potato-, wheat-, rice-, rye-, buckwheat-, arrow- -.of beginning decomposition of the core. Thus the thickness of the layer when using fats of a melting point of 43 C. is best 0.5 mm., when using a fat of a melting point of 48 C. is best 0.2 mm. Generally the thickness of the layer can be between 0.1 and 1 mm.
As these coating agents often diffuse into the core to a'certain extent during the coating, it has proved advisable to use such X-ray contrast preparations which have the core isolated from the coating by an intermediate layer C of Figure 3. This intermediate layer C of Figure 3 must be at least easily decomposed in aqueous liquids, or even better must be easily soluble. Intermediate thin coating layers of sugar and/or pectin have proved best suited. Further suitable materials are milksugar, dextrose, fruit-sugar, mannite, water-soluble meth- I yl-cellulosc, gum arabic, polyvinylpyrrolidone.
In order to protect the coating layer consisting of the basic foodstuffs against the action of bacteria or the atmosphere it is convenient to use such X-ray contrast agents which possess above this foodstuff-layer a further suitv able, protective indifferent and easily soluble layer D as in Figure 4 as for example, a layer of sugar. This layer of sugar can be aromatized and can also be dyed by means of a harmless dyestulf in order to characterize the kind of X-ray contrast agent concerned. Instead of sugar e. g. milk-sugar, dextrose, fruit-sugar, pectin, starch-sugar may be used. The whole preparation or at least the final outside layer may be dyed.
The layer of the basic foodstuff, such as fat, protein or carbohydrate, can also contain conserving agents (e. g. esters of p-hydroxy-benzoic acid, benzoic and salicylic acid) for better stability, and in case there is no final coating layer, can also contain harmless dyestuffs for characterization. Furthermore they can also contain admixtures which are not detrimental to the desired action of. the layer. Thus for example a layer of fat can contain lecithin and such-like.
The coating layer of basic foodstuff is applied to the formed bodies whose preparation has already previously been described and which may be coated with an easily I (actomyocin) which does not necessarily require aftersoluble layer such as a layer of sugar, in a manner known already in that the basic foodstuffs in a liquid form, i. e., usually in dissolved form or liquified, is coated on according to any suitable process as evenly as possible. Liquid form means in a liquid state, in solution or suspension.
This process can be carried out by dipping the formed bodies into a suitable solution of the required basic foodstuff and evaporation of the solvent hereafter. In case an insufficient thickness is obtained after dipping once, the process can be repeated. The coating of the required layer in a coating drum has proved especially suitable whereby it is especially advantageous to remove the solvent by means of a current of air which can be cold or hot and which is blown into the drum, if solutions are used in the coating process. Furthermore it has proved advantageous to add the coating agent by means of a spray gun as used in the lacquer technique, as then the applied layer is freed almost instantaneously from the solvent and adhesion of the single forming bodies is avoided. A layer of fat is advantageously applied by means of a solution of fat in an organic solvent,
but carbohydrates and proteins are advantageously applied in aqueous solution. Furthermore the application of fats can also be carried out by spraying a liquid, that means a molten fat upon the formed bodies. In this case air need not be blown into the coating drum. On the other hand it is advantageous to cool the coating drum in this case. Also pulverized (powdered) fat may be used advantageously. It is to be recommended when using fibrinogen solution as coating agent to spray alternately the said solution and a solution of thrombin. The after-treatment of the coated formed bodies, for example, by heat or with formalin, can be carried out in the coating drum itself, or also otherwise. It is mostly expedient, especially when using aqueous solutions, to blow an air current warmed to -50 C. into the coating drum, whereby the water is removed faster and also a certain after-treatment is then already achieved. A fur- .ther especially advantageous kind of applying consists therein that two components (identical or different ones) of the same group (two fats, two proteins or two carin powdered form. coating drum and the two components may be supplied bohydrates) are applied simultaneously one in the liquid form (liquified, in solution or in suspension) the other This process is carried out in a either separately or together or the powdered component suspended in the liquid component. When coating with protein on the one hand e. g. finely powdered protein is used which maybe already insoluble and on the other hand a solution ofprotein e. g. a solution of actomyocin.
When producing coatings of carbohydrates e. g. a mixture of finely powdered agar-agar and a solution of dextrirr or finely powdered starch and a solution of agaragar or tragacanth may be used. In the case of fats,
, e. g. a hardened fat and mutton fat, in the case of proteins, casein and actornyocin can be used. The advantage of this method is that the coatings may be prepared tion of the digestive organs with simultaneous use of X-ray contrast preparations containing the three different basic foodstuffs, it is advantageous to choose a different outside appearance e. g. outer form for each of the three can be made in a differentiating size.
different X-ray contrast preparations, for example, a lentil, pea, and bean form. From similar considerations the three differently formed X-ray contrast preparations The same formed X-ray contrast preparations with a different thickness of layers may be characterized by a different form or size and/or colour. The following examples serve to illustrate the invention without limiting it in any way.
Example 1 Several highly curved lozenges containing within their core 83% of barium sulphate which are coated with a layer 0.45 mm. thick consisting of beef fat of melting point 43 C. and treated with a conserving agent and keratin, are swallowed with a little water. The X-ray picture obtained from a person under examination who has a normal fat digestion, i. e., who possesses the normal amount of fat splitting enzymes, shows up to about 3 hours after swallowing black, round or oval discs, according to their internal position (the images of the lozenges), after which time the lozenges begin to dissolve. A dark, fogg'ed shadow which continues to increase in density begins to spread out from the lozenges which assume uneven shapes, become smaller, disintegrate into single particles and finally vanish altogether. Persons suffering from defective fat digestion require a time of 4, 6, 8 or more hours in order to decompose the lozenges, or do not decompose the lozenges at all.
Example 2 Pills containing barium sulphate which are evenly coated with a layer 3 mm. thick of laminated fibrin and also possess a dyed sugar layer, are used. Persons possessing a normal protein digestion will already exhibit after about 170 minutes similar phenomena to those described in Example 1, which can be observed and photographed.
Example 3 Lozenges which contain within their core barium sulphate and which are coated with a layer consisting of agar-agar, high molecular dextrine and pasty starch, and which have been after-treated by formalin vapours and by the efiects of heat, and which possess a protective layer consisting of sugar, are used. With persons under examination who have a normal carbohydrate digestion, the lozenges begin to decompose after about 2% hours.
Example 4 A pill mass, from which 1000 pills are formed with the use of a mixture of equal parts of starch and barium sulphate as scattering agent, is prepared from 250 g. of barium sulphate, 75 g. of powder sugar and 25 g. of wheat starch with the aid of sugar syrup. After drying the pills in warm air, they are immersed in beef fat which has been warmed to just above its melting point, and which contains 1% of keratin concentrate and 0.5% of a mixture of the methyl and propyl esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid. After leaving the pills in the fat for a short time they are taken out with the aid of a sieve and placed into a cooled coating drum. Powdery beef fat dyed with keratin concentrate and conserved with p-hydroxybenzoic acid ester is then added in the coating drum. The coated pills obtained possess a smooth yellowish surface. The thickness of the fatty layer amounts to 0.4 mm.
Example5 Lentil-like tablets weighing 0.125 g. are prepared in the usual manner from 2 kg. of barium sulphate, 380 g. of wheat starch, 100 g. of talcum, g. of magnesium stearate and g. of gelatin. The cores are placed into a coating drum and coated by the addition of molten fat with a melting point of 48 C. which has been prepared from vegetable oil by hydrogenation and which is sprayed onto the cores contained in the rotating and slightly cooled coating drum by means of a spray gun until a coating layer of 0.3 mm. has been obtained. The cores thus obtained are then coated in a second coating drum with a sugar layer which has been dyed red.
6 Example 6 Lentil-like cores similar to those described in Example 5 are then coated with a layer approximately 0.1 mm. thick consisting of sugar and agar-agar. A layer consisting of a concentrated solution of mutton tallow in ethyl acetate 0.4 mm. thick, is subsequently sprayed on with simultaneous blowing in of air into the coating drum. Finally the tablets are again coated with a sugar layer.
Example 7 Uncoated pills prepared according to Example 4 are repeatedly dipped into a solution of fibrinogen. After each immersion the pill is briefly dipped into distilled water which contains a little thrombin and dried. This process is repeated until a layer of about 0.2 mm. thickness has been formed. The pills thus coated are finally well dried and after-treated in a coating drum with a mixture of talcum and a brown, insoluble dyestutf.
Example 8 Uncoated lentil-like tablets prepared according to Example 5 are placed in a coating drum. A 1.5% solution of actomyocin is sprayed onto the lozenges by means of a spray gun with such a velocity that the lozenges do not stick together. A stream of warm air is simultaneously blown into the coating drum. After a layer of 0.45 mm. thickness has been obtained the coated lozenges are after-treated in a drying cupboard at 60 C. Finally, they are coated in a further coating drum with a sugar layer dyed green.
Example 9 Uncoated lentil-like tablets prepared according to Example 5 are placed in a coating drum. With simultaneous blowing in of warm air into the coating drum a solution of agar-agar and dextrine, which also contains a little lactose and a trace of glycerine, is sprayed onto the tablets. After a layer of 0.3 mm. thickness has been obtained they are dried at 60 C. in a drying cupboard and finally a sugar layer dyed orange is added in a further coating drum.
What we claim is:
l. The method of diagnosing malfunctioning of the digestive process in humans by testing for the presence and activity of a human digestive ferment in vivo which comprises orally administering a diagnostic agent comprising a core of a water-insoluble X-ray contrast agent, incapable of resorption, said core being coated with a continuous layer of water-insoluble, non-water-swelling foodstuff specifically digestible by said ferment, and measuring the time of disintegration of said foodstuff layer in the human alimentary tract by X-ray observation.
2. The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said foodstuff layer comprises a fat and said digestive ferment tested is a fat-splitting ferment.
3. The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said foodstuff layer comprises a carbohydrate and said digestive ferment tested is a carbohydrate-splitting ferment.
4. The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said foodstulf layer comprises a protein and said ferment tested is a protein-splitting ferment.

Corsair Announces Shipment of Force Series GT Solid-State Drives
- New high-performance line takes full advantage of SATA 6Gb/s technology -
FREMONT, California - June 30th, 2011 - Corsair®, a worldwide designer and supplier of high-performance components to the PC gaming hardware market, today announced the first shipments of the Force Series GT line of solid-state drives.
The new Force Series GT is designed for enthusiasts who demand the fastest performance available. It uses the new SandForce SF-2280 SSD Processor, with native support for SATA 6Gb/s (SATA 3), combined with ONFI synchronous flash memory. Force Series GT SSDs deliver outstanding read/write performance and significantly faster system response, boot times, and application load times than SATA 2 solid-state drives, with out-of-box performance of up to 85K Random Write IOPS, read speeds of up to 555 MB/s, and write speeds of up to 525 MB/s. The use of synchronous flash memory makes the Force GT Series particularly adept at reading and writing non-compressible data, such as video and music files.
All Force Series GT models are also backward compatible with SATA 2, and include an easy-to-use 3.5" adapter for use in both notebook and desktop PCs.
"With the rapid adoption of systems with SATA 3 support, enthusiasts are demanding SSDs that can push the limit of SATA 3 bandwidth," said Thi La, Vice President of Memory Products at Corsair. "The new Force Series GT line delivers amazing speed under the most demanding conditions, making them ideal for high-performance systems."
Images can be downloaded here.
Force Series GT SSDs are currently shipping to Corsair's network of authorized distributors and retailers worldwide and will be available in July at a US suggested retail price of $149 USD for the 60GB model and $279 USD for the 120GB model. Note that stated capacities are unformatted and actual capacities will vary depending on the formatting and operating system used. For more information on Force Series GT solid-state drives, please visit the Corsair web site.

ISO 14001:2009 certification by TÜV Süd is considered to be the starting point of the full certification of a management system at Palfinger Marine's corporate headquarter in Köstendorf. Safety, environmental protection and the highest quality are key values for Palfinger Marine that can now be demonstrated. It facilitates continual improvements. Since customers are increasingly demanding internationally recognised certification such as ISO 14001, Palfinger Marine has launched a process to introduce different environmental and management systems. Palfinger Marine's complex offshore area will benefit in particular from the certification.
Competitive advantages through sustainable environmental management
ISO 14001 analyses important requirements for identifying and managing environmental aspects, provides process descriptions and shows the company how it can improve the entire system. One of the objectives is a continuous optimisation process for achieving ambitious environmental management goals, which is supported by annual internal and external audits. Palfinger Marine is expecting specific competitive advantages from the certification. In addition to increased confidence of customers and other Palfinger Marine stakeholders, cost savings from handling energy and raw materials conservatively can also be anticipated.
Three certifications and implementation in three areas by the end of 2013
Palfinger Marine is pursuing a bold plan: In addition to ISO 14001, the company is expected to attain three additional certifications and meet guidelines. By the end of the year, the company is planning to have ISO 9001:2008 quality management system certification for the sale of marine, offshore and wind cranes. Suppliers who provide welded components already meet the complete quality requirements for welding work and have EN 3834-2 certification in addition to being ISO 9001-certified. The Köstendorf location is also expected to prove its efficient energy use by obtaining ISO 50001 certification. The third important objective is to implement a management system for occupational health and safety in accordance with the certification guidelines in Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS). The OHSAS is closely based on the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards and thus is very well suited for use as a part of an integrated management system which Palfinger Marine aims to achieve.

Technology Briefing | Hardware: DirecTV To Incorporate Digital Recorder
By Jennifer 8. Lee (NYT) (Compiled by Alan Krauss)
Published: February 22, 2002
The digital competition between cable and satellite television companies showed signs of heating up further with the announcement by DirecTV that its next-generation satellite receiver would include a built-in digital video recorder to be produced by TiVo. The new set-top box, to be introduced by the end of the year, could potentially incorporate broadband access as well. The companies say the box might cost as little as $200, a sharp cut from the $399 price of the existing box. Jennifer 8. Lee (NYT)

Product description
From an international expert on infant-parent communication, "Your Baby Is Speaking To You" is destined to become a parenting classic. Through intimate access to babies and their families, Dr. Kevin Nugent and acclaimed photographer Abelardo Morell capture the amazingly precocious communications strategies babies demonstrate from the moment they are born. "Your Baby Is Speaking to You" illustrates the full range of behaviours - early smiling to startling, feeding to sleeping, listening to your voice and recognizing your face. The newest research - including information on subtle and fleeting behaviours not seen or explained in any other book - illuminates the meaning of the things babies do that concern and delight new parents: the language of yawning; the rich range of cries, and how to understand their meanings; and, baby's earliest 'sleep smiles' and sleep states, and what they signify.

Come Again
The gay porn mag Honcho had a major influence on choreographer Jennifer Lacey's $Shot, at the Kitchen Wednesday through Sunday. "There's something about their photo-essays that's just amazingly inspired," says the 34-year-old New York native. "They take for granted that you want everything in the world to be sexually gratifying in some way."
This cognizance of porn and people's reaction to it is the topic of $Shot (the proverbial "money" or cum shot in porn videos). In underwear, white clogs, and woolly sweaters, Lacey and dancer Erin Cornell will explore "fetish, mucosity, the texture of flesh, puddles of fluid, and how to present a woman's vulnerable body without overtones of physiological distress." Though these conjure up eroticism, the hour-long dance is not pornographic in itself, according to Lacey. Unlike Honcho, her piece is "not designed to satisfy or gratify anybody's fantasy." It focuses on making spectators aware of their reaction to movement that mimics such erotic behavior. "For me, this piece is about how meaning is constructed. What's provocative or not is not my business."
Onstage, innovative composer Zeena Parkins will use "a table full of stuff as an instrument," says Lacey. The set by French artist Nadia Lauro consists in part of a blow-up plastic floor made of cushiony tubes filled not with air but, more appropriate, milky water. "It's quite low," says the choreographer, "and creates a strange, flat, liquidy surface."
