Apple patent points to proximity-based tablet interface
A newly awarded Apple patent suggests the company has been working on a way to display different user interface modules based on proximity instead of touch. Originally filed in September 2005 and awarded earlier today, the patent entitled "Proximity detector in handheld device" describes a system that employs one of a number of different methods for detecting when a finger, stylus, or some other object is place above, but not directly on, an area of the screen. Once the presence is detected, an appropriate user interface element is displayed, and the user can interact with the element via proximity gestures or some other form of input, such as touch. Notably, the images included with the patent appear to depict a tablet device, as opposed to a smaller handheld like the iPhone or iPod touch. As with all Apple patents, this filing does not necessarily represent any future product release from Apple, but offers evidence of the company's research in this area; continue reading for images from the patent.

A bond grows stronger
One of the few people retired U.S. Army Capt. William Swenson keeps in touch with from his Army days is Charlene Westbrook. The two have spoken monthly since Ganjgal, and last year he traveled to Fort Benning, Ga., where she was presented the Silver Star in honor of her husband.
When Swenson told her last month that his own medal had been approved, Westbrook said, "I cried, and he assured me he was accepting it for the team."
Westbrook credited Swenson with helping her and her three adult sons cope with a series of family traumas. Kenneth Westbrook's older brother Marshall, a New Mexico National Guardsman, was killed during combat in Iraq in 2005. Last year, Marshall's daughter Nicole, 21, was slain in a random shooting in Seattle.
The Army widow said Swenson offered support when she flew to Seattle after her niece was shot, a sign, perhaps, that the former captain has not left his service days entirely behind.
"He's my soldier," Swenson said of his dead battlefield partner. "You take care of your soldiers."

FBI Creates Child ID iPhone App for Parents to Store Childrens Photos and Info (Well thats handy for hackers and stalkers!)
2011-08-16 0:00
Youre shopping at the mall with your children when one of them suddenly disappears. A quick search of the nearby area is unsuccessful. What do you do?
Now theres a free new tool from the FBI that can help. Our just launched Child ID appthe first mobile application created by the FBIprovides a convenient place to electronically store photos and vital information about your children so that its literally right at hand if you need it. You can show the pictures and provide physical identifiers such as height and weight to security or police officers on the spot. Using a special tab on the app, you can also quickly and easily e-mail the information to authorities with a few clicks.
The app also includes tips on keeping children safe as well as specific guidance on what to do in those first few crucial hours after a child goes missing.
We encourage you to share the word about this app with family and friends, especially during upcoming activities in your communities to raise awareness on crime and drug prevention. For its part, the FBI is working to publicize the app with the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA)its long-time partner in the National Child Identification Program, which provides a physical kit to gather your childs pictures, fingerprints, personal characteristics, and even DNA to keep with you in case of emergency. The AFCA is producing a public service announcement about the app and will spread the word at various football games during the upcoming season.
An important note: the FBI (and iTunes for that matter) is not collecting or storing any photos or information that you enter in the app. All data resides solely on your mobile device unless you need to send it to authorities. Please read your mobile providers terms of service for information about the security of applications stored on your device.

We expose slave masters and people smugglers in suburban Britain.
Is there more to life than money?
27 Jun 2010 06:33 GMT | Environment, US & Canada, Canada
" />
Leaders of the world's major industrial countries prepare to meet in Canada for the G20 summit. With 19 countries plus the European Union, the forum represents 85 per cent of the global economy.
Top on the agenda of this year's meeting is reviewing pledges made to strengthen financial regulation in the aftermath of the 2008 global economic crisis. They are also expected to discuss the environment and climate change - issues that have been focused on by demonstrators in the streets of the host city Toronto. There are demands that the more rich G20 nations also pay some attention to the plight of the numerous poor nations that do not belong to the club. And Ban Ki Moon, the United Nations secretary-general, is urging the G20 to review the steps its members have made in achieving the Millenium Development Goals.
With the current world economic crisis and as most countries are busy focusing on global economic recovery through debt reduction, little attention has been given to the long term objectives of the Millennium Development Goals.
Will they address the plight of the poorest states bearing the brunt of the crisis? And have they forgotten about their pledges made ten years ago to improve the lives of the poor by 2015?
Are the Millenium goals still important, or are they taking a back seat to current more urgent economic issues? And would world leaders risk losing popularity at home if they give more attention to fighting world poverty and hunger?
Joining the programme are Salil Shetty, the director Of the United Nations Millennium Campaign, Shenggen Fan, the director of the International Food Policy Research Institute, and Cameron Duodu, an African affairs writer.This episode of Inside Story aired from Thursday, June 24, at 1730GMT, with repeats on 2230GMT, and the next day at 0430GMT and 1030GMT.

'Brain dead' Quebec woman wakes up after family refuses organ donation
DROMMONDVILLE, Quebec, July 5, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Last week, Madeleine Gauron, a Quebec woman identified as viable for organ donation after doctors diagnosed her as "brain dead," surprised her family and physicians when she recovered from a coma, opened her eyes, and began eating.
The 76-year-old woman was hospitalized at the Hospital Sainte Croix de Drummondville for an inflammation of the gums, which required a brief operation. During her recovery, hospital staff gave the elderly woman solid food, which she had been unable to consume in her family home for some time, and left her unattended. Choking on the food, she fell into a coma, after unsuccessful resuscitation.
Medical staff contacted her family, explaining to them that their mother was "brain dead," with no hope of recovery. Citing Gauron's eyes as particularly viable, the doctors asked if the family would agree to organ donation.
While supporting the possibility of donation, her shocked family first demanded further medical tests to prove Gauron was really dead.
The next day, the family was astonished to learn that Gauron had awakened. Shortly afterwards, she sat up in bed and ate yogurt.
"If we had decided to donate her organs, they would have killed her," said her son.
"It makes no sense to treat people like that. Although she is 76 years old and is ill, she did not have to suffer all this," insisted her daughter.
Madeleine Gauron is now able to eat, walk and talk, and immediately recognized her family. Her children have decided to take legal action against the hospital.
As anecdotes similar to Gauron's continue to pile up, "brain death" as a legitimate diagnosis of actual death is increasingly being questioned by concerned family members and medical professionals, some of whom have charged that the "brain death" criteria was created simply to ensure that harvested organs are fresh.
Currently, more than half of Swedish intensive care nurses who care for purportedly brain dead patients have doubts about methods for establishing brain death, according to a recent survey released by Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg.
While regulations require Swedish physicians to ascertain brain death through particular clinical tests, further analysis in conjunction with brain x-rays are only done for select patients.
The author of the thesis, Anne Flodén, a registered nurse and researcher at the Institute of Health and Care Sciences, said the outcome of the study was problematic, indicating the need for clear guidelines surrounding the process of diagnosis and organ donation.
"This problem was raised by many of the ICU nurses in several of the studies," said Flodén. "They were disappointed in the lack of structure and guidelines and are therefore calling for more support from management on these issues."

Texas AG to Target: Show me how you'll protect women and kids from criminals
AUSTIN, Texas, May 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – The latest backlash Target received as a result of its transgender bathroom policy was a letter from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton asking the company to provide its safety policies to protect women and children from "those who would use the cover of Target's restroom policy for nefarious purposes."
"Target, of course, is free to choose such a policy for its Texas stores," Paxton wrote in a letter to Target CEO Brian Cornell. He noted the possibility of the Texas Legislature addressing the issue in the future, but said, "regardless of whether Texas legislates on this topic, it is possible that allowing men in women's restrooms could lead to criminal and otherwise unwanted activity."
"As chief lawyer and law enforcement officer for the State of Texas, I ask that you provide the full text of Target's safety policies regarding the protection of women and children from those who would use the cover of Target's restroom policy for nefarious purposes," Paxton continued.
More than 1.1 million people have pledged to boycott Target over its new policy allowing men to access women's bathrooms. Opponents of the policy worry that it puts women and children at risk by emboldening predators, who may now freely enter women's restrooms.
Target's new policy is "inclusive," the company claims, and they say "everyone…deserves to be protected from discrimination, and treated equally."
"Texans statewide can no longer be silent on the issue of protecting the safety of women and children," Texas Values President and Attorney Jonathan Saenz said in a statement Wednesday urging Texans to boycott Target. This is the first time in its history the pro-family group has called for a boycott.
"We need all Texans to understand that Target is using this radical change in their store policy to try convince people that our laws should be changed in this dangerous direction as well," said Saena. "Our goal with this boycott is for Target to change its dangerous new policy, to raise awareness of the real threats to safety that these policies bring and to help businesses and lawmakers understand the significant opposition to such measures that is growing daily… Texans all across our state must join this Boycott Target effort before someone gets hurt."
On Tuesday a male allegedly filmed an underage girl at a Frisco, Texas, Target fitting room. Police are searching for the man.
There have been numerous incidents of male predators across North America accessing women's facilities and citing transgender policies as allowing them to do so.

Christians, America has reached a crisis point. Are you ready to take up this challenge?
May 5, 2016 (Albert Mohler) -- For nearly two and a half centuries, Americans have enjoyed the enormous privilege and responsibility of forming our own government—a privilege rarely experienced throughout most of human history. For most of history, humanity has struggled with the question of how to respond to a government that was essentially forced upon them. But Americans have often struggled with a very different reality; how do we rightly respond to the government that we choose?
To put all of this in historical perspective, the Framers of the American experiment understood that a representative democracy built on the principle of limited government would require certain virtues of its citizens. These would include a restraint of passions and an upholding of traditional moral virtues, without which democracy would not be possible. As the idea of limited government implies, the citizenry would be required to carry out the social responsibilities of the community without the intrusion of government and, thus, citizens would be expected to have the moral integrity necessary for such an arrangement. The Framers of the American Republic also agreed that it would be impossible to have a representative democracy and a limited government if the people did not elect leaders who embodied the virtues of the citizenry while also respecting and protecting society's pre-political institutions: marriage and family, the church, and the local community.
Thus, the idea of a limited government requires that society uphold and pursue the health of its most basic institutions. When a civil society is weak, government becomes strong. When the family breaks down, government grows stronger. When the essential institutions of society are no longer respected, government demands that respect for itself. That is a recipe for tyranny.
Much of this was essentially affirmed until the early decades of the 20th century when progressivists began promoting an agenda that fundamentally redefined the role of the federal government in public life. By the middle of the 20th century, the Democratic Party had essentially embraced this progressivist agenda, becoming committed to an increasingly powerful government—a government whose powers exceeded those enumerated in the Constitution. At the same time, the Democratic Party also began advocating for a basic redefinition of the morality that shaped the common culture. By and large, however, the Republican Party continued to maintain a commitment to the vision of America's founders, advocating for a traditional understanding of morality while also upholding the principle of limited government.
By the 1980s, the two parties represented two very different worldviews and two very different visions of American government. For decades, each party has acted rather predictably and in ways that accord with their fundamental principles. All of that, however, has now changed.
The 2016 presidential campaign has developed in an entirely unpredictable manner and, in many respects, represents a crisis in American democracy. This crisis is not limited to either party. Bernie Sanders, the Independent senator from Vermont, has won several stunning victories in the primary season over presumed Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. While it is still extremely likely that Clinton will become the Democratic nominee, Sanders support among voters represents a populist flirtation with Democratic Socialism. This pattern is something few Democrats could have imagined just one year ago. What this foray into Democratic Socialism represents, then, is a radical adjustment of the Democratic Party's basic economic principles. Thus, even if Hillary Clinton becomes the nominee, the process will likely drag her even further to the left, eventually redefining the Democratic Party before our very eyes.
But if it is remarkable to see what is happening in the Democratic Party, it is absolutely shocking to see what is happening among Republicans. Traditionally, the Republican Party has established its reputation by standing for the principles advocated by the American Founders—limited government upheld by the health of society's primary institutions such as marriage, family, and community. Yet Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party, represents virtually everything the Republican Party has typically defined itself over against. Clearly, both political parties are now redefining themselves. What is not clear is where each party will ultimately end up. What is also not clear is whether the American experiment can survive such radical political change.
As already noted, the American experiment in limited government requires that the citizenry and those who hold public office honor certain moral virtues and respect the institutions that are crucial for a society to rightly function. Yet, we now find ourselves in a situation where the three leading candidates for president show little to no respect for such institutions in their articulations of public policy.
This fundamental redefinition of the American political landscape requires Christians to think carefully about their political responsibility. Make no mistake; we cannot avoid that responsibility. Even refusing to vote is itself a vote because it privileges those who do vote and increases the value of each ballot. In truth, we bear a political responsibility that cannot be dismissed or delegated to others. Every Christian must be ready to responsibly steward his or her vote at the polls.
To put the matter bluntly, we are now confronted with the reality that, in November, Hillary Clinton will likely be the Democratic nominee and Donald Trump the Republican nominee. This poses a significant problem for many Christians who believe they cannot, in good conscience, vote for either candidate. As a result, Christians are going to need a lot of careful political reflection in order to steward their vote and their political responsibility in this election cycle.
Headlines from around the world tell us that other representative democracies are at a similar moment of redefinition. Political turmoil now marks the United Kingdom and also nations like France and other key American allies. Perhaps democracy itself is now facing a crucial hour of decision and a crucial season of testing. It is no exaggeration to say that democracy is being tested around the world; it is certainly being tested here at home. Yet if this is a moment of testing for democracy, it is also a crucial moment for Christian witness. This election cycle is going to be a particular test for American Christians—and we are about to find out if Christians are up to this challenge.

'Sick and twisted': Scientists keep embryos alive outside womb up to 13 days for experimentation
May 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Two teams of scientists have announced that they have been able to keep human embryos alive outside the womb for 13 days for the purpose of conducting scientific experiments. Some call the announcement the onset of a "Brave New World," while others are petitioning lawmakers to lift sanctions that would keep scientists from experimenting on newly conceived babies even longer.
Researchers from Cambridge University, King's College, and Rockefeller University said in two separate reports that they stopped at 13 days only to avoid violating an internationally accepted law. At least 12 nations restrict the amount of time a newly conceived child may be kept alive in a laboratory to 14 days, the point at which scientists believe "individuality" begins.
The newest development allows scientists to observe newly conceived human beings after the point at which implantation in the womb would have occurred.
Professor Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz, one of the studies' lead researchers, said her team's breakthrough could advance embryonic stem cell research and "can improve IVF success."
Some scientists have called on the international community to extend the amount of time such experimentation can take place.
"If restrictions such as the 14-day rule are viewed as moral truths, such cynicism would be warranted," three experts – Insoo Hyun, Amy Wilkerson, and Josephine Johnston – wrote in a commentary published yesterday in Nature magazine. "But when they are understood to be tools designed to strike a balance between enabling research and maintaining public trust, it becomes clear that, as circumstances and attitudes evolve, limits can be legitimately recalibrated."
Pro-life experts said the experimentation destroys human life and could lead to grave ethical dilemmas by extending the research.
"No human being should be used for lethal experimentation, no matter their age or stage of development," said Dr. David Prentice, a professor of molecular genetics and an Advisory Board Member for the Midwest Stem Cell Therapy Center. "The 14-day rule is itself arbitrary, and does not assuage those who believe life begins at the moment of sperm-egg fusion. Moreover, allowing experiments on human embryos beyond 14 days post-fertilization risks the lives of untold more human beings, because it further encourages creation and destruction for research purposes."
Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, called the experimentation "sick and twisted."
"Science has undeniably proven that a new human life, with unrepeatable DNA, begins at conception," she said. "There is no reason for experimentation on that human life and science itself should not be heralding thae fact that a tiny human being can survive now for two weeks outside of the womb, all for the sole purpose of experimentation."
Dr. Prentice noted that embryonic stem cell research "has yielded no benefit thus far," leading even its most vocal advocates, such as Michael J. Fox, to admit it has not lived up to its promise.
"If this research does not stop at 14 days, where does it stop?" asked Prentice. "This is a risky step which could encourage further eugenic attitudes and actions."
Dr. Prentice encouraged Congress "to have a full and open debate on the issue of human embryo research before the research community moves further without oversight."

Does Rihanna Have A New Guy?
Photo: REX USA/David Fisher/Rex.
Sorry Drake, but there appears to be a new man in Rihanna's life. The pop star has been stepping out with former college basketball star Cliff Dixon, and rumor has it the two are more than just friends. Bad news for a certain Canadian rapper, good news for anyone who loves a good summer fling.
RiRi and Dixon, who is close friends with basketball player Kevin Durant, celebrated Independence Day at Hooray Henry's in West Hollywood. Apparently, they were "snapped looking very close inside."
Aside from that, and the odd pool-party meet-up at Durant's house, the most compelling evidence of this maybe-romance is Dixon's own Instagram feed.
On July 3, he made Rihanna his #WCW (Woman Crush Wednesday). If that's not true love, what is?
This week, Dixon posted another photo of a curly-haired Rihanna, along with this cryptic message: "She said they gonna hate no matter what, I said the PJ ready, Where you wanna go for lunch?" Indeed.
Stay tuned to see if this relationship develops. (Hollywood Life)

MEANS FOR LUBRICATING INTERNAL BEARINGS IN CENTRIFUGAL GAS PUMPS Filed Jan. 30, 1939 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Patented Oct. 26, 1943 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE MEANS FOR LUBRICATING INTERNAL 7 Claims.
This invention relates to the art of fluid compressors of the high speed, multi-stage centrifugal'type, and deals particularly with a means for supplying adequate lubrication to the impeller shaft bearings disposed internally of the compressor casing.
The present disclosure pertains to thatl class of such devices known as multi-stage centrifugal gas pumps or blowers. As is well known to those versed in the art, the problem of lubricating the impeller shaft bearingsv between the successive stages is a serious one for the pressure within the pump increases by increments of from about 30 to about 125 pounds per square inch at the various stages in succession from inlet to outlet. Prior art practice has sought to solve the problem by employing either an individual lubricant pump supplying direct to each bearing or a lubricant pump common to all, in which latter case additional means must be utilized to throttle the pressure on the lubricant supply to all bearings but the one disposed at. the zone of highest gas pressure Within the pump. In either case the necessary accessories and system arrangements are troublesome and. expensive, and the pump efficiency-.suffers considerably from the inevitable excessive entrainment of lubricant in the gas stream.
'Ihe present invention is designed to eliminate these difliculties attendant upon the prior practice, and to that end has as a primary object the provision of means self-contained Within the pump stages for automatically distributing an adequate supply of lubricant to the various bearings.
Another object is to provide a novel means for lubricating the internal bearings of multi-stage centrifugal gas pumps and the like by making use of pressure differences at various points within the pump as a means of feeding lubricant or a sealing or cooling medium to the bearings.
A further object is to provide in pumps of the character described and in like apparatus, means for mechanically separating oil from the pump gas stream in which it is entrained and delivering such oil in adequate quantity to the various bearings.
Other'objects will become apparent to those skilled in the art. While the instant disclosure constitutes an embodiment ofthe best means I have thus far devised for reducing the invention to practice, it is to be understood that within the scope of the invention as claimed any desired variations and substitutions may be made in structural detail and arrangement of parts.
In the accompanying drawings, wherein like characters of reference designate like parts throughout the several views- Figure 1 is an axial section, partly in elevation, of a multi-stage centrifugal gas pump equipped with my invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary section through the mechanism at one of the pump stages.
Figure 3 is a section taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 2'.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary axial section, partly in elevation, of the mechanism at one of the stages in an alternative embodiment of pump structure.
'I'he pump illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 is of the general form and construction of the pump shown in my copending application Serial No. 253,693, led January 30, 1939, entitled Lubricating seal. That is, it embodies a casing 1 provided at its low pressure end with a gas inlet 8 and at its high pressure end with an outlet 9. The successive stages are dened by the respective impellers I0, II and I2 which discharge radially into their respective volutes or difusors I3, I4 and I5. The impellers are fixed to the axially extending impeller shaft I6 for rotation therewith, which shaft passes entirely through the pump in bearing bushings I'I, I8 and I9 mounted axially in the xed partition walls 2li,` 2l and 22 respectively. These walls divide the stages in the conventional manner of such pumps. The inner end of the inlet conduit 8 opens in ccmmunication with the eye of the first stage impeller Ill and the discharge from the return passage from the first volute I3 opens to the eye of the second stage impeller II, and so on throughout the longitudinal extent of the pump, the nal stage discharge being to the outlet conduit 9. At each end of the pump casing the shaft I6 projects through the end wall, being journalled in end bearings 23 and 24.
A supply of lubricant, preferably a light lubricating oil, is continuously fed into the incoming gas stream and is entrained therein. The lubricant may be introduced at any point in the inlet conduit 8 or prior thereto but in the embodiment herein disclosed it is introduced axially along the shaft I6 through the inner end of the bearing 23 and mingles with the gas stream just in advance of the eye of the rst stage impeller I0. The lubricant is fed to the bearing through a supply line 25 under a pressure slightly greater than the'pressure within the pump in the inlet conduit. As more particularly described in my aforesaid copending application, the shaft I8 has an appreciable radial clearance in all bearings. the clearance being sufficient to insure full nlm lubrication. By virtue of such clearance and its higher pressure the lubricant is .forced from the bearing into the incoming gas stream in the pump- Y,
As the gas and entrained lubricant emerge from the impeller the droplets of lubricant due to their greater density are thrown radially outward by centrifugal force and collect as a film on the outer wall of the ilrst stage volute I3, or on the outer walls of the curved returnl passageacting as the nozzle or didusor. Duel to the high velocity of the gas in the volute the lm of oil is caused to travel along the walls of the volute in the direction of gas ow, but of course at a much slower rate. The diffusor nozzle and return passage are represented as a, continuous passage by I3a, the diiusor nozzle being continuous with the volute and the return passage being continuous with the difusor nozzle. This whole continuous passage follows an essentially circumferential path. Due to the curvature of the path of the gas subsequent to emerging from the first stage impeller, an approximate free vortex exists in the body of the gas. This creates a higher pressure near the outer wall and lower pressure near the inner wall of the passage. Be-
cause of its viscosity the oil film is moved relatively slowly along the surface of this curved passage and its own centrifugal force is usually not great enough to keep its path along the outer wall. Accordingly it is forced by the above explained pressure difference due to the free vortex to flow around to the inner surface.
One or more walls of the return passage from the volute is provided with lubricant collector means. here shown as a trough 26 interposed in the path of travel of the lubricant as indicated by the dotted lines in Figures 1 and 2. A portion of the lubricant is caught in the collector 26 and from there is fed through a conduit 2l into the first stage bearing I'I adjacent the inner end of the bearing. In its travel through the conduit 2l, of which there may be more than one, movement of the lubricant is rendered positive by virtue of the dierence in pressure in the passage between the bends and that portion of the return passage immediately in advance of the eye of the second impeller I I, at which latter point the exposed end of the bearing I 'I is located. Actually the difference amounts to two pounds or more per square inch as the increase in velocity of the pump gas when sucked into the eye of the impeller lowers its pressure at that point. This pressure differential between the trough 26 and the delivery end of the conduit 21 insures that the oil collected in the conduit will be moved under a positive force to the point of lowest pressure, which is, of course, the bearing. Due to this two pound pressure difference a small amount of oil will leak out of the aforementioned exposed end of the bearing near the second stage impeller instead of gas leaking into the bearing at that point.
Movement of the oil is enhanced by a further reduction in pressure between the ends of the bearing. Since the pressure prevailing in the space 28 between the back of the impeller I0 and the wall 20 is much lower than any other that directly communicates with the bearing, the greater part of the oil required by the bearing ilows into this space whence it is picked up by the rotating impeller and under the action of centrifugal 'force is again thrown into the gas stream as it emerges from the impeller from which point it is again passed through the volute I3 and subsequent passages as entrained lubricant.
'Ihe entrained lubricant not picked up in the collector 26 together with lubricant that leaks back into the gas stream from the right end of the bearing passes with the gas into the second stage impeller I I whose volute Il is equipped with a collector 29 identical to the first stage co1- lector 28, and which delivers lubricant through its conduit 30 to the second stage bearing Il. All pressures existing in the second stage are uniformly increased over those of the nrst stage and the lubricant distribution therefore is the same as in the rst stage except that it is at an increased pressure.
The same arrangement of wall carried lubri cant collector means and delivery conduit to the associated bearing holds for every subsequent stage of the pump, the operation of distribution being the same in each except that, as above stated, it is accomplished at higher pressures in the successive stages.
The impeller shaft I6 is provided with an annular lubricant reservoir groove 3| in registry with the delivery end of each lubricant conduit,
ywhich insures that a sufficient body of lubricant shall be retained at all times within the bearing to eilect a liquid seal which prevents leakage of the gas axially back along the shaft from the higher pressure stages to the lower. This is in contrast to the alternative of cutting the groove in the bushing. In this latter case centrifugal force due to the rotating shaft would tend to carry` the oil away from the bearing.
In the alternative embodiment illustrated in Figure 4 the pump casing I between successive stages, as between volutes I3' and I4' is formed with an annular lubricant collector chamber 32 in lieu of collector means on the walls as in the preceding embodiment. Lubricant is supplied through an inlet 33 tc mingle with the incoming pump gas delivered at the eye of the impeller III. The gas with its entrained lubricant issues from the impeller, collects on the walls of the volute, diffusor nozzles and return passages as explained in the foregoing embodiments and by virtue of the free vortices existing in the curved passages is carried along the shortest path unless obstructions are encountered. To eliminate the obstructions the passages are twisted in a manner necessary to keep the same wall on the continuous shortest path for the oil and to have it terminate so that the stream of oily does not have to traverse the swift gas current. The gas with some remaining entrained lubricant issues from the discharge end of the return passage from the volute I3 and passes in a swirling mass across the mouth of the chamber 32 into which droplets of the entrained lubricant are expelled by centrifugal force. Troughs or lips 34 are provided on the walls of the chamber 32 at its mouth to trap lubricant and prevent its being returned into the gas stream. The lubricant collects at the low points of the chamber and as the pressure within the chamber is higher than theA pressure existing at the clearance in the bearing I'I' the liquid lubricant will be forced up through the delivery conduit 21 which leads from the bottom of the chamber 32 to the bearing I1. The reduction in pressure existing at the bearing I1 may be enhanced by providing a sleeve 35 secured at one end to the hub of the wall 20' over the inner end of the bearing and extending concentric with the impeller shaft I6' into the eye of the next succeeding impeller I I', the sleeve being open at this end. As the pressure in the eye Ii' is at least two pounds lower than the pressure in the return passage from the volute I3' and chamber 32 this reduction will be evidenced within the confines of the sleeve and will be effective at the bearing,
In the herein contained illustrations the supply of lubricant has been introduced into the incoming stream of gas. If the gas already contains a usable lubricant such as oil or water, obviously this introduction of lubricant will not be necessary.
The term "lubrican as used herein is intended to cover any liquid lubricating, cooling or sealing medium, and the term gas pump to cover any equivalent apparatus.

President-elect Morsi pledges to work for tourism
World Tourism Organization congratulates new President of Egypt
UNWTO (UN World Tourism Organization) Secretary-General, Taleb Rifai, has congratulated Mr. Muhammad Morsi on his election as Egypt's new President and applauded his support for the tourism sector, as expressed in the President's first speech after taking office.
"We will work together to encourage investment in all sectors, and restore the role of tourism for the benefit of the Egyptian economy and every citizen in Egypt," said Mr. Morsi in his first speech as Egyptian President.
"I warmly congratulate President Morsi on his recent win and welcome his strong commitment to tourism, a major pillar of the Egyptian economy," said Mr. Rifai, "Tourism to Egypt, one of the leading foreign exchange earners and job creators in the country, is showing clear signs of recovery, boosted by political support at the highest level. UNWTO offers its full support to the Egyptian tourism sector and will continue to work closely with the relevant authorities towards its full recovery."
Fourteen million international tourists arrived into Egypt in 2010, generating US$13 billion in tourism receipts. While arrivals were down 32 percent in 2011, following the pro-democracy movement that swept across North Africa and the Middle East, results for the first 5 months of 2012 show arrivals up 29 percent.

(LinuxWorld) -- It's strange how things work out sometimes. I was feeling a bit burned out by the install wars. I don't mean the difficulty of getting an OS to lay down politely on a system. I mean seared by the flames from those whose belief systems were shattered by my column last week. There were more than a couple Windows users who became "excited" by my report that Red Hat 7.3 was a better, faster, and easier install than Windows 2000.
"It's an unfair comparison!" was the most common whine. It wasn't unfair at all -- it was an honest, uncontrived real-life experience. However, I do agree with the readers that there are many unfair things in the whole scenario.
First, it is unfair of Microsoft to force the OEMs to use restore media instead of including an OEM CD version like the one they used to be able to do. As bad as most Windows users I heard from believe the restore process to be, and in spite of their desire to blame Sony for that, it seems to me that Microsoft is trying to gouge its consumers by getting them to pay for a second copy of Windows in order to avoid the dreaded Windows "restore experience." I was amazed at how many Windows users felt that was the best course of action.
Next, it is unfair that I have to explain the facts of Microsoft's business practices to its users. Count each and every angry, red-faced Windows user writing in to tell me I was a clueless idiot (or worse) for using the restore disks as a person completely ignorant of the impositions Microsoft places on the OEMs. For this sizable and special group, I offer to them whatever solace and encouragement they might find in the words of Microsoft's CEO, Steve Ballmer: "Eat the dogfood."
Of course, it is unfair for the vast majority of Microsoft users, those who have gotten their Windows preloaded, using the restore disks as I did is the only legal way they have to reinstall Windows. That is unless they fall into that category of user with enough money and so little good sense as to rush out and pay for a new retail version. All that in order to save the extra 5 or 10 minutes the restore actually takes.
The unfair thing of all is the evil EULAs with which Microsoft binds its victims. Customers buy Windows under one license and then find that the license is actually living document that can be updated and changed unilaterally by Microsoft. One thing is certain. Microsoft's dot Net project must really be hurting. Otherwise they wouldn't be trying to steal their customers' right to free speech, they would be paying customers to publicize it.
After the hundreds of emails I got on the column, I was tired of discussing installations at all. I needed a quick fix. Something easy. Something good. I noticed some folks on a mailing list I subscribe to talking about Knoppix. Then a reader commenting on last week's column mentioned it as well. I had to try it. I found it to be all I needed: quick, easy, and good.
Knoppix, the painless Linux test driveKnoppix is an "instant demo" distribution. You make (or buy if you don't have a CD burner or the bandwidth to download the ISO image) a bootable CD, plop it in your CD drive (for you newbies, CD drive is the technical name for the coffee cup holder that slides in and out on the front of your computer), and reboot.
Voila. THAT is your install. Now you are running one rad Linux, dude. On your Knoppix desktop (built atop a Debian base) you'll find Knoppix provides KDE 3.0.2 with its Konquerer browser, the GIMP for images, Kdevelop for coding, and - hold on to your hats, folks -- Open Office 1.0. In all, more than 900 executable programs are included in the ISO image. It's amazing.
In about 2 minutes time, including the boot sequence, Knoppix has sniffed all your hardware, configured itself for you video card and your Internet access, and loaded the KDE 3.0.2 environment. A svelte female voice announces the KDE startup. When you exit the demo, the same voice tells you it is beginning to shut down. Shut itself down it does, turning off the machine as it leaves.
Knoppix doesn't interfere with anything on your hard drives. Makes no never mind if you are running Windows or Linux. Any partitions it finds are opened in read only mode. This makes it perfectly safe for even the rawest newbie to surf and explore Linux right from their own machine.
You can, however, unmount a partition and remount it in read-write mode. You're on your own then, however, as you can certainly mess something up if you're not careful. You can do it with a couple of mouse clicks in the GUI. No MSG (Masters degree in geek) required.
See the image below? That is of me running Knoppix on this very machine. I was using vi from Knoppix to edit this story. The text file lived on my hard drive. I captured the screenshot using the GIMP and saving it to the /tmp directory on that same drive.
All I had to do was right-click on the icon representing my disk partition, select the properties tab, and un-click the Read-only property. Then I mounted the drive by clicking on Mount. It's very easy.
Editor's note: The above image is reduced in size and color palette to allow it to load quickly. Click on the above image to see the original. Or, you may view a full-sized, reduced-color version that will load more quickly.
Of course just because you can write to the hard drives doesn't mean you should. Knoppix is, after all, a "live demo" distribution and it isn't meant to be a way to run Linux on a fulltime basis.
The real message is this: if you've wanted to give Linux a whirl but were afraid to ask, don't be any longer. Get Knoppix. Boot the CD. You're there, baby. Surfing, playing, checking out Open Office, the KDE desktop, the development environment. Whatever. It is a great learning tool. When you're finished, you are right back where you started without a hair out of place.
