We would recommend this hotel. There was a mix-up with our reservation and the front desk staff did a wonderful job making everything right. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the breakfast buffet left nothing to be desired!

Historical Traveler Reviews Hollins Hall, Marriott Hotel & Country Club Bradford
Loved it! Great place for a romantic/relaxing getaway..
We have just returned from a weekend break at Hollins Hall - it was fantastic. The food was gorgeous and the staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. I would definitely recommend this place as an ideal location for a romantic/relaxing getaway. Its worth every penny you spend!
Lovely facilities - Room not up to scrach
We stayed at hotel for bank holiday break. Facilities were excellent and breakfast was great. However, the room was not up to scrach. Reported faulty lighting in bathroom on arrival Saturday and it was still not fixed by departure Monday. Not very impressive for a chain such as Marriott. Also, lamps were dusty. Would have expected more. Would return again to hopefully better housekeeping
Nice hotel for a break
Stayed here in early August. Superb location for access to Harrogate etc. Nice and relaxed. Good breakfast. The staff, as with all the other Marriotts we stayed at, were superb - attentive, polite, helpful. More than happy and will be going back soon.
Rooms are a bit small for kids as well, but hey, we managed!
Great location - ideal for a get away
We stayed in early June when the UK had a "heatwave". Whilst the recepition areas was airconditoned the rooms were not. The rooms were very hot and stuffy.This did make sleeping difficult especially when the room overlooked the rear of the hotel and the noise from the disco in the Function Suite kept us awake until the early hours. The Hotel says that they will be dealing with "the ventilation issue".
The rooms were of average size and very comfortable and the Staff and decor were first rate as were the breakfasts.
All in all a great place to stay if you want to spoil yourself.
Will go back in the Autumn when not so hot !!
Had our wedding here & loved it!
We had our wedding reception here and we loved it. The staff were fantastic, the food was gorgeous and the rooms were really lovely too. We stayed in a Junior Suite and I can definately recommend it! All of our wedding guests commented on how beautiful the hotel was - the surroundings, etc. Everything was perfect and I just wanted anybody else who is considering getting married here to go ahead! Oh and not forgetting the amazing breakfast - fabulous!
We Liked ItT!
My husband and I stayed at the Hollinshall for one night over the Bank Holiday weekend.
We chose this Marriott after spending a weekend at it's sister hotel - Breadsall Priory in Derbyshire earlier in the year.
Hollinshall was in a great location,with the most stunning views over the Eshott Valley, however, for us, Breadsall Priory has the edge.
The staff at Hollinshall were excellent, most friendly and offered great service. However, we arrived at Sunday lunchtime so chose to eat at the Long Weekend Sports Bar. What a dissapointment! The choice of food was poor, the carvery only had one choice of meat and everything was dried out under the heat lamps, not very appealing! The service was poor, our dirty plates were just left, even though they were on full show to members of staff, they chose to look at them, then just carry on walking. Very poor service when not even busy.
The poor service at lunchtime was compensated at dinner. Heathcliffes reastaurant was just perfect, the menu had an excellent choice, the food was wonderful with service to match. Breakfast the next morning was equally as good.
Our room was fine, we had requested a "nice view", we got a room which overlooked the car-park! Although it was small, the bed was huge and most comfortable. The bathroom was spacious enough with an excellent assortment of toiletries and a great supply of towels.
As the hotel is handy for Eshott, the home of Emmerdale, we had a drive into the village. It was very dissapointing and lacked atmosphere. The Woolpack was awful, nothing like we expected. It was wierd to feel that "I've been here before feeling" even though we hadn't!
Overall we enjoyed our stay at Hollinshall and we will no doubt stay again in the future.
Weekend break
We stayed here for 2 nights, arriving on the Friday.
The room was spacious and very clean. The shower was fantastic. The breakfast was above average, hot and fresh and plenty of choice. The staff were very friendly. The leisure facilities were also excellent.
The only small grumbles that we had were that the mattresses and pillows were too soft for our taste. As other reviews have mentioned the directions given on the hotels website are misleading and hard to follow.
My wife and I would recommend this hotel.
Best Marriott I have stayed in.
I have stayed in a few Marriott Hotels in the UK, and this is easily the best.
The staff were very friendly and well trained. The restaurant food was excellent and very good value if you are on a DBB package. The dining room is very comfortable and well furnished.
The room was very nice but can get very hot and stuffy. There is no air-con but a fan is provided.
The golf course is superb and hiring a buggy is essential unless you are super-fit!
The location is great for a short break but do not rely on the directions printed on the Marriott website because we got lost following them around Bradford!
I will definitely stay here again.
A good hotel made great by the staff
We stayed here as a family for a short break in March. The room was clean and functional and the rate was excellent - family room and kids go free. Breakfast was good and fresh, and the leisure club is excellent - big 20m pool and jacuzzi and a very well equipped gym. The best thing was the staff, nott just polite and helpful, but friendly and anticipating our every need. Requests for extra towels were answered in 5 minutes; despite being busy the breakfast staff were keen to make the morning as pleasant as possible. Truly "better than american" service with Yorkshire friendliness and warmth!
Nice corporate hotel
Got a deal here in 2003, and was quite pleased. Marriott are a good chain and this is an ok hotel. Don't pay too much and you won't be disappointed.

Bay Area road will reopen in 10 days
SACRAMENTO, Calif. – It is still the Bay Area's worst transportation disaster since the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, but the damage to the maze of roads connecting several freeways near Oakland from a weekend truck explosion is not as bad as initially feared, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Wednesday.
The governor announced that a key segment of what is known as the MacArthur Maze will not need to be rebuilt. The segment, which connects Interstate 80 to Interstate 880, will be repaired and open to traffic within 10 days, he said.
"Progress at repairing the collapsed freeway connectors is moving at lightning speed," Schwarzenegger said.
But it will still be months before traffic is back to normal in the Bay Area. An entire span of the I-580 was destroyed in the fire and needs to be completely rebuilt.
Transportation officials determined that the I-880 section could be repaired after tests of several concrete and steel samples revealed that part of the interchange, while badly damaged from the collapse of a piece of freeway above, remains structurally sound.
Caltrans estimates it will cost roughly $8 million to repair it. The cost of repairing the entire MacArthur Maze is certain to be many times that.

Great location off of I-35 with ample parking. Food was good, fresh. They also serve tap beers. Their margarita specials in the happy hour was a great deal.
The food was good, serviceable Mexican. The restaurant is definitely in need of a serious remodel, with broken booth seats and wood with it's finish worn through.

Service was average, food the same. Right off highway. Probably wouldn't return but it was a decent meal.
I have eaten here many times and each time I have enjoyed the food and the service! This last time was so spectacular I had to review it! All the food that was ordered was beautifully presented and delicious!
Can't wait to go back soon!
We sat outside on the patio.
The service was awesome!
They have large servings of food for a reasonable price. I shared the tipico dinner with my daughter, we still had to take leftovers home. My husband had the Don Carlos BBQ special. Our friends shared the chicken quesodilla.
They offer several different types of beverages.
We come here regularly....
Waiter was great remembered 12 peoples meals and drink order in his head with writing anything down, food was good
Great Mexican restaurant. I had the Dos Amigos enchilades and they were wonderful . Wife had the tostadas and they were also good. Good cold draft Dos XX.
Good location and service that i can recommend.
Visited Don Carlos in Waco June 12th 2015 I have gotten the number 15 on the lunch special the food did not have no flavor at all. The service was okay Will not be back
This was some of the best Tex-Mex I've had in awhile. I really liked the beef enchiladas. Frozen margaritas were excellent, but a bit pricey $30 for a pitcher which was about 6 glasses. Our server, Frederico, was outstanding. We had a big group and we never lacked for anything. I'll be back
If you would like to try Tex Mex in a family atmosphere and still enjoy a drink- This is a good place. This place has a great patio and often has bands. The food and drinks are usually great, but don't drink the draft beer! The staff is great here and always cheerful and friendly. Prices are great and they...

The present invention is directed to equipment and methods for detecting seal failure for air moving equipment such as compressors. More specifically, this invention is directed to sensors and their placement for detecting oil leakage into an air or gas stream downstream from the air moving equipment.
Air compressors, fans, blowers, turbo-chargers and other air moving equipment are commonly used to provide necessary oxygen or air flow to power-producing equipment or other equipment that functions as a result of the air flow. Examples of such equipment include engines, motors, and low temperature catalytic reactions, such as fuel cells. For many applications where air moving equipment such as listed above is used, the quality or purity of the air provided to downstream equipment is not critical. However, there are a number of applications such as for certain kinds of power-producing equipment, in which any contaminants, such as particulates and chemical fumes within the air stream, must be kept low in order to have the power-producing equipment function properly and efficiently. A fuel cell is one type of power-producing equipment whose efficiency and operation can be detrimentally affected, even inhibited, by certain types of airborne contaminants.
A fuel cell has an anode and a cathode, and power is generated through a catalytic reaction. One common type of fuel cell is a hydrogen fuel cell, in which a hydrogen fuel source is directed to the anode, where the hydrogen electrons are freed, leaving positively charged ions. The freed electrons travel through an external circuit to the cathode and, in the process, provide an electrical current that can be used as a power source for external electrical circuits. The positively charged ions diffuse through the fuel cell electrolyte and to the cathode where the ions combine with the electrons and oxygen to form water and carbon dioxide, by-products of the process. To speed the cathodic reaction, a catalyst is often used.
Chemical contaminants present in either the hydrogen source or the oxygen source can inhibit the operation of the fuel cell. In fuel cell systems, the ambient air stream containing the necessary oxygen is usually compressed and/or accelerated by air moving equipment such as air compressors, flans, blowers, turbo chargers, or the like, before reaching the cathode, in order to provide the required amount of oxygen to the cathode. U.S. Pat. No. 6,432,177 (Dallas et al.), U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/832,715, filed Apr. 11, 2001, Ser. No. 09/879,441, filed Jun. 12, 2001 and Ser. No. 10/122,647, filed Apr. 10, 2002 describe systems for removing both chemical and particulate contaminants form the air stream that provides the oxygen to a fuel cell. However, the systems described in these applications are primarily directed to removing contaminants from the air stream prior to the air stream passing through the air moving equipment. These systems are not arranged to remove contaminants that might be generated on produced by the air moving equipment.
What is needed is an arrangement to inhibit, preferably eliminate, contamination of the air stream by the air moving equipment itself and to provide for timely shutdown of the fuel cell system in the event of excess contamination of the air stream.
The present invention provides an early warning system that can be used for any equipment or process which could be detrimentally affected by the presence of contaminants in the air stream or other gaseous stream. The early warning system of this invention is particularly suitable for delicate power-producing equipment which can be permanently or temporarily damaged by contaminants coming from air moving equipment positioned upstream of air or other gas flowing through the power-producing equipment. The system of this invention is also suitable for other equipment where the cleanliness of the gas stream is important such as a paint sprayer or tools.
The present invention provides a seal-leak detection arrangement that, when incorporated into air moving equipment, monitors the gas passing through the air moving equipment for contaminants such as hydrocarbons, for example lubricant oil, or silicone, which could damage the power-producing equipment or other equipment or processes positioned downstream of the air moving equipment. Sensors are positioned within the air moving equipment to monitor and warn of leaks from within the air moving equipment, leaks such as lubricant oil leaks.
In one particular embodiment, this invention is directed to air moving equipment that has an inlet and an outlet, and an air flow path connecting the inlet to the outlet. The air moving equipment also has a contamination source. A seal-leak detection system is positioned within the air flow path downstream of the contamination source and upstream of the outlet. Usually, the contamination source is a lubricant source, such as bearing lubricant.
In another particular embodiment, this invention is directed to a system that includes air moving equipment, the equipment having an inlet, an outlet, and an air flow path connecting the inlet to the outlet, and a contamination source. A seal-leak detection system is positioned in the equipment within the air flow path downstream of the contamination source and upstream of the outlet. The system includes a fuel cell having an oxidant inlet for receiving air from the air moving equipment outlet.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention the seal-leak detector arrangements of the present invention are described as incorporated into air handling or air moving equipment, such as a compressor, which, when the compressor is incorporated into a system, protects the equipment downstream of the compressor from contamination caused by lubrication oil or other contaminants that may pass through or be produced by the air handling equipment. Compressors and other air moving equipment include various types of seals to contain lubricant oil around the bearings. Due to normal usage of the equipment over time, these seals wear and/or breakdown, resulting in leakage.
Although the terms "air moving equipment", "air handling", "air stream", and the like are used throughout this specification, it is understood that other gaseous streams, such as oxygen-enriched air, pure oxygen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, argon, mixes, or any other gaseous material may be used with the seal-leak detector arrangements of the present invention.
Referring to
Examples of suitable air moving equipment include compressors, fans, blowers, turbo-chargers, expanders, and vacuum pumps. Specific examples of various types of compressors include rotary compressors such as rotary lobe, rotary screw, rotary scroll, rotary vane, rotary sliding vane, reciprocating compressors, centrifugal (both multistage and single stage), air cooled, water cooled, single stage, double acting, multiple stage, and high pressure compressors. An example is one specific compressor type that is particularly useful in fuel cell applications is a "Lysholm" twin screw compressor, which is available from Opcon Autorotor AB of Sweden.
Air stream 14 from outlet 24 progresses to inlet 32 of equipment 30. Equipment 30 can be any equipment that uses air or another gaseous feed stream to operate, such as to produce power, and which requires the air stream to be relatively free of contaminants that maybe produced by the air moving equipment 20. Examples of power-producing equipment that can be used in system 10 include thermal engines, such as spark ignition or compression ignition, electric motors, steam engines, and fuel cells. Examples of other equipment that would benefit from a seal-leak detection arrangement of the present invention include paint sprayers, clean room ventilation systems, compressed air lines that power to tools, carbonation gas for beverages, and medical air.
Equipment 30 is generally of the type that can be damaged by the presence of lubricant oil, which is typically a hydrocarbon-based material or silicone-based synthetic oil, or which could alternately or additionally be used in an application wherein the air stream passing there through could cause damage to an article or process to which the air stream is subsequently applied. For example, the catalyst and/or electrolyte of a fuel cell can be permanently damaged by contact with hydrocarbons, silicone or sulfur, whether in solid particulate, liquid, or vapor form. The seal-leak detection arrangement of the present invention minimizes, and preferably eliminates, the opportunity for leaking oil or other contaminants originating from air moving equipment 20 to contaminate the air stream passing through the air moving equipment 20 to such an extent that such contamination would be harmful to equipment 30 or to the downstream use-application being serviced by the equipment 30. The seal-leak detection arrangement monitors and warns of any leaks, thus providing an early warning system to avoid costly damage to power-producing equipment 30 or other processes downstream of air moving equipment 20.
Air moving equipment 20 includes a seal-leak detection arrangement of the present invention. In a preferred application of the invention, the seal-leak detection arrangement is designed and constructed to detect leakage of lubrication oil through the seals generally present in air moving equipment 20 such as compressors and blowers. If any oil is detected, system 10 can be shut down before the escaping oil causes, either temporary or permanent damage, to equipment 30 or otherwise raises to an unacceptable level in the air stream supplied to downstream equipment 30.
Air moving equipment 20 generally includes a rotatable shaft which mounts a plurality of blades or vanes for moving air from the inlet to the outlet of the air moving equipment. Such shaft is typically mounted in or surrounded by the path of the air being processed by air moving equipment 20.
Referring now to
In particular, seal-leak detection system 50 includes sensors, in this embodiment, a first sensor 45 a and a second sensor 45 b, each positioned in a hole or bore 46 a, 46 b, respectively, formed within housing 30 the downstream their respectively monitored seals. The diameters of holes 46 a, 46 b should be sized to operatively accept sensor 45 a, 45 b therein (for example, 6 mm diameter). Hole 46 a, 46 b would preferably be configured to pass through housing 30 and into the chamber where leaking oil would be present, such that sensors mounted within the holes could be positioned therein from outside of housing 30. Sensors 45 a, 45 b can be threaded or merely snap-fit into holes 46 a, 46 b. Preferably, each of holes 46 a, 46 b is at a low spot in housing 30 with respect to bore 32. First hole 46 a with first sensor 45 a is positioned between bearing 38 and first seal 44 a, and second hole 46 b with second sensor 45 b is positioned between first seal 44 a and second seal 44 b. Each of sensors 45 a, 45 b monitors for and warns of the presence of oil 42. First sensor 45 a is a primary sensor that monitors for the presence of any oil that may have leaked past bearing 38. Second sensor 45 b is a secondary sensor that monitors for the presence of any oil that may have leaked past both bearing 38 and first seal 44 a. Data confirming the detection of oil by either sensor 45 a, 45 b can be used to shut down the system, thereby avoiding permanent damage to equipment 30. In an alternate configuration, confirmation of a leak by first sensor 45 a can be a warning that bearing 38 is beginning to leak and may need replacement. However, if no oil preserve is detected by sensor 45 b, seal 44 a may not be sufficiently worn or damaged to warrant immediate shut down and replacement. Subsequent sensing of oil by second sensor 45 b can then be used to automatically shut down the system.
As stated above, sensors 45 a, 45 b are configured to detect the presence of liquid lubricant oil 42. Additionally or alternatively, sensors 45 a, 45 b can be configured to detect the presence of, for example, molecular amounts of hydrocarbons, silicone, sulfur, or other materials that are components of oil 42. Examples of suitable sensors for sensing either liquid material or molecular amounts include those that operate by refraction and reflection. A reflective sensor 45 a, 45 b operates by monitoring reflectance of a beam of light emitted into housing 30 where lubricant oil may leak. The presence of oil or other contaminant within the light path will affect the reflectance reading. One example of a suitable reflective sensor is Part FU67G, available from Keyenes.
The sensors are typically operably connected, such as by optical fibers or cables, to other signal processing equipment, such as to an amplifier. An example of a suitable amplifier for use in conjunction with a FU67G sensor is amplifier Part FSM1, also from Keyenes. If desired, multiple sensors can be connected in series or in parallel. Typically, a second amplifier would be used for a second sensor. An example of a suitable amplifier for use in a series connected sensor configuration using a first FSM1 amplifier is a Part FSM2 amplifier, also available from Keyenes.
A second embodiment of a seal-leak detector assembly is illustrated in
Similar to sensors 45 a, 45 b of
It is understood that seal-leak detection arrangements 50, 80 can be incorporated into any type of air moving or air handling equipment for which leaking lubricating oil could pose a threat to downstream equipment or processes. Additionally, seal-leak detection arrangement 50, 80 can be used on air moving or aid handling equipment used with any equipment or process which could be detrimentally affected by the presence of lubrication oil contamination.

System 100 of
Fuel cell 130 is an electrochemical device that efficiently converts a fuel's chemical energy to electrical energy. Fuel cell 130 chemically combines a fuel and oxidant without burning, thereby eliminating many inefficiencies and most pollution of traditional combustion power systems. Fuel cell 130 operates in principle much like a battery. However, unlike a battery, fuel cell 130 does not run down or require recharging; it will continue to produce energy in the form of electricity and heat as long as fuel and oxygen is supplied to it.
In general, fuel cell 130 consists of two electrodes (an anode and a cathode) sandwiched around an electrolyte. In a preferred configuration, fuel cell 130 is a PEM type, low temperature fuel cell. For a PEM fuel cell, hydrogen and oxygen are passed over the anode and cathode electrodes, respectively, in a manner that generates a voltage between the electrodes, creating electricity, and producing water and carbon dioxide as the primary by-products. The hydrogen fuel is supplied to the anode of the fuel cell. Some fuel cells consume hydrogen directly, while others use a fuel reformer to extract the hydrogen from, for example, a hydrocarbon fuel such as natural gas, methanol, ethanol, or gasoline. Oxygen enters the fuel cell at the cathode. The oxygen can be supplied in purified form or can come directly from atmospheric air.
Fuel cell 130 uses a catalyst to cause the hydrogen atom to split into a proton and an electron, each of which takes a different path to the cathode. The protons pass through the electrolyte. The electrons create a useful electric current that can be used as an energy source, before returning to the anode where they are reunited with the hydrogen protons and the oxygen to form water.
Fuel cell 130, and other fuel cells, are generally characterized by the electrolyte material which is sandwiched between the cathode and anode, and which serves as a bridge for ion exchange. There are five main known types of fuel cells. Alkaline fuel cells (AFCs) contain a liquid alkaline electrolyte and have been used primarily in space mission applications. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEM or PEMFCs) contain a solid polymer electrolyte. Their low temperature operation, high power density with the ability to vary their output quickly to meet shifts in power demand make their use ideal for both mobile and stationary applications, such as powering vehicles or buildings. Phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFCs) utilize a phosphoric acid electrolyte and are currently used for commercial power generation. Molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs) contain a carbonate salt electrolyte, which becomes molten at the operating temperature of about 650� C. Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) use a ceramic electrolyte material and operate up to about 1000� C. Both the MCFCs and the SOFCs can use carbon monoxide as fuel.
The primary types of known fuel cell configurations are discussed above. They all have the common characteristics briefly discussed, but vary in operating temperatures and efficiency of operation. A hydrogen fuel source is directed to the anode, where the hydrogen electrons are freed, leaving positively charged ions. The freed electrons travel through an external circuit to the cathode and, in the process, provide an electrical current that can be used as a power source for external electrical circuits. The positively charged ions diffuse through the fuel cell electrolyte to the cathode where the ions combine with the electrons and oxygen to form water and carbon dioxide, by-products of the process. To speed the cathodic reaction, a catalyst is often used. Examples of catalysts often used in the fuel cell reaction include nickel, platinum, palladium, cobalt, cesium, neodymium, and other rare earth metals.
The proton exchange membrane (PEM) type of fuel cell is a popular fuel cell configuration for use in powering vehicles due to its low temperature operation, high power density and ability to quickly vary its power output to meet shifts in power demand. The PEM fuel cell is often simply referred to as a "low temperature fuel cell" because of its low operation temperature, typically about 70 to 100� C., sometimes as high as 200� C. Fuel cell 130 is preferably of the PEM, low temperature configuration, or the SOFC (solid oxide) configuration. The construction and operation of fuel cells, in general, is well known. Various fuel cells are commercially available from, for example, Ballard Power Systems, Inc. of Vancouver, Canada; United Technology Corp. (UTC), of Connecticut; Proton Energy Systems, Inc. of Rocky Hill, Conn.; American Fuel Cell Corp. of Massachusetts; Siemans AG of Erlangen, Germany; Global Alternative Propulsion Center of General Motors of Detroit, Mich.; and Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan. Individual fuel cells, each having an anode, cathode, and electrolyte, are configured into "stacks" to provide the desired amount of external power. It will be recognized that the principles of this invention will benefit the operation of generally any fuel cell configuration.
The threshold levels of contaminants that are acceptable by various fuel cells are dependent on the design of the fuel cell. For example, hydrocarbons (methane and heavier), ammonia, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, silicones, and the like, are known to occupy space on the catalyst and inactivate the sites to reaction. Thus, these contaminants need to be removed prior to their entering the reactive area of the fuel cell.
The exact threshold level of contamination, and types of contaminants that are acceptable will vary depending on the catalyst used, the operating conditions, and the catalytic process efficiency requirements. The seal-leak detection arrangement of the present invention shuts down the incoming air stream before the contaminants have an opportunity to damage the catalyst, electrolyte, or other part of the fuel cell.
Referring again to
Referring to
Filter assembly 210 provides filtration to the incoming air stream 212 to provide a purified air stream 213 or oxidant to the intake side of fuel cell 230. Filter assembly 210 captures and retains particulate and/or chemical contaminants that can harm the combustion or catalytic process, the electrolyte, or both. Filter assembly 210 can also provide sound suppression or attenuation for any noise emanating from air moving equipment 220, such as a compressor, that may be operatively connected with fuel cell 230.
A first example of filter assembly 210 has a housing and a filter element in the housing. The housing has an inlet and an outlet, the inlet receiving dirty air (i.e., air stream 212) into the filter assembly, and the outlet providing clean filtered air (i.e., air stream 213) from filter assembly 210. The filter element has a particulate filter portion constructed and arranged to remove physical or particulate contaminants from air stream 212 and may have a chemical filter portion constructed and arranged to remove chemical contaminants from air stream 212. The filter assembly also has a sound suppression element, such as a resonator, sonic choke, full choke, sound adsorbent material, that attenuates or otherwise reduces sound by at least 3 dB at one meter, preferably by at least 6 dB. See, for example, pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/832,715, filed Apr. 11, 2001 which is incorporated herein by reference.
A second example of filter assembly 210 has a filter element comprising a sound suppression element, a particulate filter portion, and a chemical filter portion. The sound suppression element is constructed and arranged to provide broadband sound attenuation of at least 6 dB at one meter. The particulate filter portion is constructed and arranged to remove particulate contaminants from dirty air (i.e., air stream 212) entering the filter element, and the particulate filter portion is positioned radially adjacent the sound suppression element. The chemical filter portion is provided to remove chemical contaminants from the dirty air. In some configurations, the particulate filter portion can be configured to provide straight-through flow. See, for example, pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/879,441 filed Jun. 12, 2001, which is incorporated herein by reference.
It is understood that any other arrangements of filter assembly 210 can be used. Additional information regarding filter assembly 210, and various alternate embodiments, are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,432,177 and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/122,647, filed Apr. 10, 2002, both incorporated herein by reference.
Referring to the portion of system 200 downstream of filter assembly 210, filter air steam 213 from filter assembly 210 enters air moving equipment 220 via inlet 222. After being processed by air moving equipment 220 having the seal-leak detection arrangement of the present invention, the air exits via outlet 224 as stream 214. In some system configurations, it may be desired to include a filter assembly downstream of compressor 220 and upstream of fuel cell 230. Such an "exhaust" filter assembly illustrated in phantom in
The above specification, examples and data provide a complete description of the manufacture and use of the composition of the invention.

Free Radical: 'Star Wars: Battlefron
t 3' canceled by LucasArts 'psychopat hs'

Star Wars: Battlefront 3 was in development at Free Radical Design, but it was canceled by LucasArts executives who found the project too costly, according to the developer's co-founder, David Doak.
In a lengthy Eurogamer feature about the history of Free Radical, a studio often credited for the success of GoldenEye for the Nintendo 64, Doak and fellow co-founder Steve Ellis gave their side of the story on the rise and fall of the studio. The team had its highs (like its well-received TimeSplitters games) and lows (like Haze), but its darkest days were those preceding the cancellation of its heretofore unannounced last project: Star Wars: Battlefront 3.
"It was going well," says Doak. "They wanted to massively upgrade the scope, and consequently we were being required to be very ambitious technology-wise — when you see those leaked videos of it you can see it looks spectacular."
The problem: with that ambition came a higher price tag for the project. When LucasArts experienced a changing of its executive guard — including the appointment of new president Darrell Rodriguez — the publisher's priorities turned to cost-cutting. According to Doak, Free Radical's budget was targeted, leading to layoffs and payroll freezes. Ultimately, the studio went into administration, and was absorbed by Crytek shortly thereafter.
"My role at Free Radical meant that I was simultaneously involved in these unpleasant 'high level' discussions with psychopaths who wanted to destroy us," Doak said, "and then the next day sitting with our dev staff at their desks trying to boost people's morale. It was the most depressing and pointless thing that I have ever been involved in."

The Metro Board on Thursday discussed a 5-cent surcharge for rail riders coming and going from some of the transit system's heavily traveled rail stations, especially Union Station in the District, in an effort to fund capital improvements.
Tom Downs, a board member from the District, floated the idea of a surcharge during an emergency meeting to discuss potential solutions to the agency's $72 million budget shortfall for fiscal 2012.
He singled out Union Station - the transit system's busiest station with an average of 32,745 riders per weekday. It's also one of the oldest Metro stations, opening in the historic building in 1976.
Mortimer Downey, a federal appointee to the Metro Board, said that a year ago the board discussed a similar idea to impose a surcharge for the purpose of funding capital improvements, but the idea was not pursued.
That proposal would allow each jurisdiction to levy the surcharge at two stations to fund repairs and maintenance for things like passageways and escalators at that station. The surcharge would remain in effect until the improvements are completed.
But while board members said a surcharge was not the same as a rate hike, some members seemed aware that was the way it would be perceived.
"This will be the equivalent of fare increases for a chunk of people that use the system," said Mary Hughes Hynes, a board member from Arlington County.
The Metro Board pledged not to raise fares after it approved an 18 percent bump to bridge a gap in the fiscal 2011 budget.
Officials are attempting to close a $72 million budget gap in the $1.466 billion budget for fiscal 2012.
The board must bring any changes in service to a public forum, but Mr. Downey said a hearing on the proposal seemed unnecessary because the board had already heard from the public when it considered the idea of a surcharge last spring.
Metro General Counsel Carol O'Keefe agreed that a hearing was not needed but said future discussion "might be appropriate," depending on how long the surcharge remains in effect.
The board plans to discuss the surcharge at a meeting next week.

We had great time at Hilton Resort. Everything was perfect - room, resort, pools, service, food, beach, weather, kids' and sport activities. We had dinner at all the restaurants and enjoyed it a lot - the Souk Cafe was so nice and yummy (thanks to Sameh and Hanni for the lovely evenings and for entertaining our daughter). The atmosphere in the resort is very cosy and relaxing. Our daughter (1,5 years old) liked it so much - playing on the beach, riding the train to the beach, swimming in the pools, playing at kids' club, dancing at mini disco (a lot of fun), having delicious meals, be entertained by all the friendly staff! Snorkeling was lovely - we saw beautiful corals and fishes, big turtles, blue-spotted rays, giant napoleon fish. I enjoyed having yoga on the beach - just right next to the sea. Thanks to the staff for making this one of our greatest vacations full of unforgettable memories. I can recommend it to everyone and I'm sure you won't regret it. We miss the sun, the beach, the beautiful resort and the friendly people but hope to come back again and can't wait for it!!!

Adam Levine may be pals with fellow "The Voice" coach Blake Shelton, but that hasn't squashed his desire to crush the country crooner in the competition and win Season 4.
"I need to shut his mouth," Adam told AccessHollywood.com's Laura Saltman, in an exclusive new interview on the reality series' set as filming begins on the new season. "I need to win so I can shut his face."
Blake has so far won the show twice (Adam won the first season, Blake the last two), and the Maroon 5 singer is feeling super competitive.
"I just want him to fail. It has less to do with my success. I just want to see him lose," he said.
Adam said he and Blake are the same as ever as they sit in the those big red "The Voice" chairs judging, but Shakira and Usher, who joined the show at the end of 2012 for the pre-taped audition rounds, have helped to shake things up.
"Same old me and Blake, same old thing," he said. "Shakira and Usher have been fantastic. I know that Usher, he's going to get crazy competitive, which I love. I love that. Shakira is finding her way. Don't underestimate Shakira. She's got claws… Good, competitive claws."
Adam has a little help this season from Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott, who is assisting in mentoring the Team Adam contestants.
"This has been really, really an amazing experience," Hillary said of her time so far, helping the contestants out. "I was honored to get the call and to be on Adam's team which I think is gonna surprise a lot of people that it wasn't Blake, being that he's a country artist as well."
Hillary is no stranger to singing competitions. She tried out for "American Idol" twice, and she learned some valuable advice from getting rejected – not to give up on her dream.
"Yeah, don't let just one word get thrown in your face," she said. "Don't give up. If it's really what you're supposed to be doing there's gonna be more than just that way."
"The Voice" Season 4 premieres March 25 at 8/7c on NBC.

Right-wing media have frequently cited Bjorn Lomborg to downplay the danger of global warming. In his forthcoming book, Lomborg will reportedly declare global warming a "chief concern facing the world today" and recommend spending $100 billion annually on clean energy technology financed by a global carbon emissions tax.
From the August 24 edition of Fox News' Special Report:
Loading the player reg...
Propose a law or government regulation aimed at protecting the environment, and it's a safe bet that the right-wing media will respond by blasting intrusive "nanny state" policies that tell people how to live instead of letting them decide for themselves, and insisting that if people really care about the environment, the glorious free market will take care of it.
When Washington DC, for example, instituted a plastic bag tax designed to reduce number of bags clogging local rivers and streams, the good folks at Fox News denounced the measure as "downright ridiculous."
Now, I don't tend to agree with the claims that the free market will take care of all of our problems, or that the government discouraging the use of environmentally-destructive products is an unbearable infringement on individual liberty. But at least those positions are understandable. They don't (necessarily) indicate a hatred for the planet.
But what happens when the market provides environmentally-friendly products, and individuals make the decision to purchase those products? The right heaps derision upon them.
Just this morning, Glenn Beck & Co. mocked reusable grocery bags. Not, mind you, governmentally-mandated reusable grocery bags -- the bags themselves, and the people who use them. See, "real men" don't use them; they use "as much plastic as possible."
Then there's the Toyota Prius. For some reason, conservative media figures are blinded by rage whenever they encounter a Prius.
Prius-bashing is a popular pastime among the Newsbusters crowd. Take this weird rant by Media Research Center Vice President Brent Baker last week:
Confirming her membership in Manhattan's liberal elite, Katie Couric boasted on Tuesday's Late Show that she plans to follow Tom Friedman's admonition, that in refusing to move away from oil "we have met the enemy and he is us," and so she's realized she "should" buy a Toyota Prius, the favorite of conspicuously superior liberals, or at least a hybrid. Couric recounted how her daughter told her "'we should turn in the car we have' and 'get a Prius or a hybrid.' And I said, 'you know, Ellie, we should do that.' And we're going to look into it."
What the heck? Did a Prius run over Brent Bozell's dog? What's wrong with a private citizen deciding she should buy a fuel-efficient car?
National Review's Greg Pollowitz and Jonah Goldberg, among others, seem to delight at Prius-bashing, too.
I'm starting to think the right-wing media doesn't love free markets so much as they hate the environment. How else to explain their gleeful mockery of individual decisions to use reusable plastic bags and drive fuel-efficient cars?
From Jonah Goldberg's May 27 National Review Online post:
Don't get me wrong, I'm usually singing from the same "It's Obama's Fault and We Know It" songbook. But I just can't bring myself to agree with the folks who think that the BP spill is a major indictment of Obama. He may have handled the politics of this thing badly, by which I mean the P.R., but unless someone can explain how Obama could have "taken over" and fixed this faster, I think a lot of the criticism is overboard. Not all of it; it sounds like Bobby Jindal has some legitimate complaints. But the notion that B.P. isn't motivated to cap this thing as quickly as possible and so therefore Obama needs to lean on BP harder is nothing short of crazy talk. Obama could have been on vacation for the last month and I'd bet the tempo of the BP operation wouldn't have been one minute slower.
In an April 14 column, Jonah Goldberg falsely suggested that conservatives do not embrace empathy and compassion as qualities in considering judicial nominees. In fact, conservative Supreme Court justices have cited the importance of personal experience during their own confirmation hearings, and conservatives have repeatedly expressed support for empathy or compassion in judicial nominees.
Jonah Goldberg claimed that the Obama administration "is now floating the idea of imposing a value-added tax" "to pay for" the "recently passed health-care legislation." In fact, CBO found that the health care law more than pays for itself over the next ten years and beyond.
Jonah Goldberg writes:
Congratulations! This is your last week working for the man - at least for this year. The Tax Foundation calculates that Tax Freedom Day for 2010 is April 9, which means that by Friday, Americans will have spent nearly 100 days working just to pay their taxes. If Democrats have their way, Tax Freedom Day will keep getting later and later.
Individual liberty is far from the only concern, either. The kind of country we want to be is deeply bound up in taxation. The Tax Foundation estimates that some 60% of American families already get more from the government than they pay in taxes (and the top 10% of earners pay more than 70% of the income taxes). If all of President Obama's plans are enacted, that percentage will increase. We are heading toward being a country where instead of the people deciding how much money the government should have, the government decides how much money the people should have.
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., recently admitted that alleviating the "maldistribution of income in America" from the haves to the have-nots is one of the legislation's real benefits.
For a guy who is so concerned about families who "get more from the government than they pay in taxes," Goldberg is remarkably unconcerned about corporations that get more from the government than they pay in taxes. See, Goldberg's column comes just a few days after Forbes reported that last year, General Electric "generated $10.3 billion in pretax income, but ended up owing nothing to Uncle Sam. In fact, it recorded a tax benefit of $1.1 billion." And Exxon Mobile, despite more than $30 billion in earnings, paid no federal income taxes.
Despite the fact that Exxon and G.E. celebrate "Tax Freedom Day" just moments after ringing in the new year, Goldberg didn't once mention corporate taxes in his column. Apparently, he thinks that if your tax money pays for a poor kid's school lunch, that's an infringement on your freedom -- but if it subsidizes an oil company's profits, that's all good.
Right-wing media figures declared Obama's health care summit with congressional leaders "staggeringly boring," "boring as sand," and a "snorefest." Conservative media have a history of painting Obama's policy-laden appearances as insufficiently entertaining.

From Jonah Goldberg's January 20 column:
While the scope of the tragedy in Haiti is nearly impossible to exaggerate, it's important to remember that last week's earthquake was so deadly because Haiti is Haiti.
If a similarly powerful earthquake were to hit much more densely populated San Francisco or Los Angeles, the death toll would be much lower. That's an amazing thing when you consider that US cities are crammed with skyscrapers while Port-au-Prince's skyline was, for the most part, one story high.
Indeed, as others have noted, when a 7.1 earthquake hit the Bay Area two decades ago, 67 people were killed. The Haitian death toll is almost unknowable, but almost certainly over 100,000 and climbing.
It's hardly news that poverty makes people vulnerable to the full arsenal of Mother Nature's fury. The closer you are to living in a state of nature, the crueler nature will be -- which is one reason why people who romanticize tribal or pre-capitalist life (that would be you, James Cameron) tend to do so from a safe, air-conditioned distance and with easy access to flushing toilets, antibiotics, dentistry and Chinese takeout.
The sad truth about Haiti isn't simply that it is poor, but that it has a poverty culture. Yes, it has had awful luck. Absolutely, it has been exploited, abused and betrayed ever since its days as a slave colony. So, if it alleviates Western guilt to say that Haiti's poverty stems entirely from a legacy of racism and colonialism, fine. But Haiti has been independent and the poorest country in the hemisphere for a long time.
Even if blame lies everywhere except among the victims themselves, it doesn't change the fact that Haiti will never get out of grinding poverty until it abandons much of its culture.
From the November 3 edition of United Stations Radio Networks' The Lou Dobbs Show:
Loading the player reg...
Several conservative commentators have touted a Gallup poll finding that 20 percent of respondents identify themselves as "liberal," 36 percent as "moderate" and 40 percent as "conservative" to criticize President Obama and his agenda and to claim America is ideologically a "conservative" country. But political scientists dispute the reliability of voters' identification with political ideologies, and other polling has found that a strong majority favors the more progressive position on a number of issues.
