3 Claims. (Cl. 99221) (Granted under the act of March 3, 1883, as amended April 30, 1928; 370 0. G. 757) This application is made under the act of March 3, 1883, as amended by the act of April 30, 1928, and the invention herein described, if patented in any country, may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes throughout the world without the payment to me of any royalty thereon.
This invention relates to a method and apparatus for heating fluids, particularly liquid foodstufis, by means ofultra high-frequency dielectric heating.
The invention utilizes the principle of exciting a conductive cavity with a source of high-frequency electromagnetic waves, the size of the cavity being such that the cavity is in resonance with the high-frequency generator. A fluid or divided solids are then passed, in a freely-falling stream, through the cavity at the region or regions where the standing waves in the cavity are at maximum voltage. In this manner the material is subjected to the maximum electrical energy available in the system and is heated by the action of the electromagnetic waves.
Many methods and devices are known and used for the heating of liquid foodstuffs. The most common method is to heat the liquid in a vessel or heat-exchanger by thermal contact with steam or other hot medium. In such processes the liquid film that is close to the heated surface does not move, hence this portion of the liquid is heated to a higher temperature than the remainder of the liquid. As a result, development of off-flavors occurs because of the overheating of a portion of the material. Besides this surface effect, overheating also results because it is impossible to achieve heating at a reasonable rate without employing a heating medium at a temperature much higher than the final temperature desired. Thus if it is desired to heat a body of liquid to 80, the temperature of the heating medium must be considerably higher than 80 in order that the temperature gradient be high enough to obtain heat transfer at a reasonable rate. As a consequence it is unavoidable that portions of the liquid closest to the heatin medium will have a higher temperature than more remote portions. This situation is, of course, aggravated with viscous materials or materials which become viscous on heating, in which cases agitation is difficult and often impossible. It is also known to heat materials including foods by induction heating. Such type of heating involves passing a high-frequency current through a cylindrical coil and passing the foodstuff along a path coincident with the axis of the cylinder. This method has the disadvantage that the electromagnetic field established by the coil is Widely dispersed, whereby difierent portions of the material are heated to different temperatures. Further, in such type of heating, only the magnetic force of the current is utilized since the electric forces are very weak in the region of the axis of the cylinder.
The method and apparatus of this invention are not subject to the disadvantages set forth above. The fluid is not in contact with any surface while undergoing heating, hence no overheating occurs. There is no temperature gradient involved; hence no over-heating is caused by this phenomenon. 'The electrical energy acts upon and heats all the particles in the fluid stream to the same extent regardless of their position in the stream. Further, the fluid is passed through a region in the cavity where the electrical field is uniform and has its maximum value. Thereby uniform heating is obtained and the maximum of energy available in the system is utilized. Further, the invention utilizes not only the magnetic but also the electrical energy available in the system.
In the figure annexed herewith is illustrated an embodiment of the apparatus of this invention. This embodiment comprises hopper I at the lower end of which is attached pipe 2. Valve 3 is provided in pipe 2 to regulate the flow of liquid from hopper l to treating chamber 5. A nozzle 4 having a circular cross-section is disposed at the point where pipe 2 is attached to chamber 5. The purpose of this nozzle is to cause the fluid 40 to flow into chamber 5 in a smooth downward-flowing stream, preferably as a pencil or cylindrical stream of narrow cross-section compared to the diameter of chamber 5. Chamher 5 is a cylindrical vessel made of material which is a good conductor of electricity-copper or silver, for example. The horizontal cross-section of this chamber is critical and preferably should be about one-half wave length in diameter. Thus,
P if the chamber is excited with a current of 600 of chamber 5. A high-frequency generator 14 of conventional type feeds high-frequency current into chamber 5 via coaxial cable l5, l0. Coaxial members I5 and iii are, of course, made of a material which is a good conductor of electricity. Annulus ll is made of insulating material and serves to prevent contact of the coaxial members l5 and H5. The middle coaxial conductor 16 is formed into a loop it within chamber 5 and is fastened to the chamber Wall at its extreme end. By means of this arrangement, the high-frequency current from generator M is impressed upon chamber 5, the dirnensionsof which are adjusted so that it will. be in resonance with. the generator. The fluid or liquid 40 which has been exposed to the high-frequency flcldflows directly into pipe 6 provided with thermometer 22 This pipe, in turn, conducts the fluid into cooler l. Cooler 1 is a vessel equipped with cooling means comprising chests 8a and 8b and pipes 9. A suitable refrigerant such as cold brine is pumped through pipe is, chest a, pipes 9', chest 81), and pipe 20. Thermometer 23 is installed in the bottom of cooler l. Fluid which collects in cooler i can be withdrawn through pipe it by suitable operation of valve ll. Vent I3 is provided to release gases such as steam which are released when the device is operated. Inert gases such as nitrogen may be introduced through pipe I2 to flush out air from chamber to prevent oxidation or other undesirable reactions from taking place during processing. If desired, a slight pressure of inert gas may be employed during processing to flush air entrained in the liquid ano steam out of. the system through vent l3.
The operation of the device may be explained as follows:
The fluid to be treated is placed in hopper l with valve 3 closed. The generator Ill is then switched on to energize chamber 5. The refrigerant is circulated through cooler 1. Valve 3 is then opened to permit the fluid to flow in a stream through chamber 5 into pipe 6. The opening of valve 3 is adjusted to obtain the proper heating of the fluid in its passage through the chamber as measured by thermometer 22'. The rate of flow will, of course, be governed by the temperature increase desired and by the electrical power available in the generator-chamber system. After obtaining a proper rate of flow, it
is advisable to adjust the frequency of generator I4 since the stream in the chamber will, tosome extent, detune the system. By slight adjustment of the frequency of the generator the chamber can be brought back into resonance. This fact can easily be determined by the use of electrical probes and other instruments well known to those skilled in high frequency work. The hot fluid entering pipe 5 descends into cooler l where it is instantaneously cooled thereby to prevent undesired reactions which would cause development of off-flavors, etc. The treated, cooled fluid collecting in cooler 1 may be canned, frozen, or otherwise prepared. for use or sale.
The source of high-frequency electromagnetic waves may be any of the devices available in commerce for communications and/or radar purposes. A generator suitable for the purposes of this invention is described by R. 13. Nelson in Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 18, page 356 (1947). Other generators with which those skilled in the art are familiar are equally operative. The frequency of the generator may be varied over a wide range. In general, any frequency employed in radio communications can be used. It is to be noted that the frequency of materials into reaction systems.
the generator controls the size of the cavity because the generator and cavity must be in resonance; the higher frequencies requiring a cavity of smaller cross-section. Thus for practical purposes it ispreferred to use a frequency in the range from about 500 to about 5000 megacycles per second. Where it is desired to treat a very fine thread-like stream of liquid the frequency can-be increased to as high as 30,000 megacycles per second. As stated above, the generator and cavity must be in resonance to obtain the full effect. of the electrical output of the generator. Aswell known in the field of high-frequency currents, the shape and size of the cavity determine its resonant frequency. Although we prefer to use a cylindrical cavity having an inner diameter approximately equal to one-half wavelength because the standing waves therein are of simple character, being at a miximum along the longitudinal axis thereof, other shapes or sizes may be used such as squares or rectangles having dimensions of one-half, one or other multiples of one-half wavelengths. In any case the point or points of maximum voltage can be easily deter mined mathematically or by the use of electri-- cal probes. Resonance can also be determined mathematically or by experimentation using an electrical probe to ascertain the adjustments necessary to obtain resonance; Data on the determination of maximum points and calculation of proper sizes to obtain 'resonance are set forth in the textbook Hyper and Ultra High Frequency Engineering, by Sarbacher and Edson at pp. 364-396 and in the article by Horner et al. in Journal of the Institution of'Electrical' Engineers (London), vol. 93, p. 53 (1946). It is obvious that Where a size or shape of cavity'is' used such that there is more than one maximum point, one may pass the fluid through the cavity in several streams, one stream passing through each point of maximum voltage.
The method and apparatus of this invention are of wide versatility and can be employed for the heating of any fluid, this term being used'to include any material capable of flowing; Thus the invention can be applied to any normally liquid material, to solutions of solids in normally liquid materials, to emulsions or suspensions of liquid or solid materials in a liquid medium; to sludges, and slurries. The fluid may also be a material which en masse has fluid characteristics. Thus the fluid may be granular or powdered ma terial which is capable of flowing. Thus the in' vention can be utilized for the sterilization or heat treatment of seeds, powdered or granular foods or chemicals. The device can thus be employed for feeding heated powdered or granular In other applications, the chambercan be used as the'r'eaction vessel itself. Thus a catalyst in divided condition is fed into the chamber as the fluid to be heated, while simultaneously gases are fed into the chamber through vents [2' or 13 for'reaction in the presence of the catalyst. The purpose of the heating in regard to any fiuidrnay be heating to cause chemical reaction, heating to cause evaporation either to concentrate'the non-volatile components or to recover the volatile component or both, heating merely to'raise the temperature for further processing or use of the liquid, heating to pasteurize, sterilize or' to inactivate enzyme components. Our invention is particularly adapted to the heating of liquid foodstuffs such as fruit or vegetable-juices, soups, gravies, fruit or vegetablepurees, milk; sugar solutions or syrups, egg meats, meat Juices, liquid cereal preparations such as malt extracts, worts, and cereal broths. In particular our invention is .adapted to the heating of liquid foodstuffs for the purpose of sterilizing the material so that it is incondition for packaging as by canning, bottling, or freezing.
In its preferred form, the outlet 6 of chamber 5 is of such size and so placed with respect to orifice 4 that the line stream or thread of liquid or divided solids 40 drops into it with no accumulation or a minimum of accumulation, of the material in the bottom of chamber 5. This assists in avoiding fluctuations in the characteristics of the dielectric in chamber 5.

"President Obama has put forward a thoughtful and important proposal to help students and families finance higher education. It is also a complex, multi-faceted plan, and important details remain to be unveiled. If approved by Congress, it would provide an enormous amount of money to help students and families. Colleges and universities stand ready to do everything they can to help enhance student access and completion.
Our central concern with the proposal is the likelihood that it will move decision-making in higher education from college campuses to Washington, DC. In recent years, the federal government has increasingly inserted itself in the day-to-day operations of colleges and universities, including basic academic decisions.
It is clear the administration recognizes that colleges and universities play a vital role in economic recovery and expansion—this is perhaps the defining issue of our time. As President Obama noted in his speech, 'There is no greater predictor of success than education.' We strongly agree. We are committed to working with the administration and Congress to make certain that affordable, high-quality higher education is available to all Americans and that colleges and universities are accountable for every dollar they receive."

Today, Associate Editor Erico Guizzo offers us a special blog on what has happened to the Norwegian glacier he reported on a year ago.
Erico Guizzo
You might have heard that Earth's warming climate is disturbing the lives of a wide range of animals, from Arctic polar bears to Scottish seabirds to tiny zooplankton organisms called pteropods. Now, a new species can be added to that list: British researchers.
The specialists in question are a group of engineers and scientists from the University of Southampton that for several years have been studying a glacier in southwestern Norway. Just recently, the group was forced to abandon the glacier, because it's rapidly disappearing—the crumbling ice gulping with it the monitoring equipment the researchers had set up there.
In the summer of 2005, I accompanied the group on one of their trips to the Norwegian glacier called Briksdalsbreen, part of the largest ice field in continental Europe (and reported on it in "Into Deep Ice"). The group, led by Kirk Martinez, a professor of computer science, and Jane K. Hart, a professor of geography, uses custom-built sensors that, embedded deep within the ice, send temperature, pressure, and other measurements to a base station at the surface of the glacier.

Late last year, the group was contacted by a person who visited Briksdalsbreen and had some bad news: the group's base station had fallen down a deep crack that had opened in the glacier.
The researchers knew the glacier was shrinking, but the pace of its melting surprised them. In one year, it retreated nearly 100 meters. To see a 2001-2006 sequence of photos showing how the glacier has changed, see this example.
"The glacier is gone," Martinez told me in an email. "Lost a lot of gear in the lake. And the crash and splash [of the base station] killed the hardware before we could get any new data from the summer's new probes. So quite sad, really." He added that working on Briksdalsbreen is now too dangerous, and so the project will have to move to another glacier.
It won't be easy.
This week, the World Glacier Monitoring Service, in Zurich, released a preliminary report that says that mountain glaciers around the world are melting at an accelerated pace, confirming a trend already observed in previous studies.
According to the United Nations-backed report, from 2000 to 2005, the average ice loss rate was 1.6 times that of the 1990s and three times that of the 1980s. "The recent increase in rates of ice loss over reducing glacier surface areas leaves no doubt about the accelerated change in climatic conditions," Michael Zemp, a research associate at the World Glacier Monitoring Service, said in a statement.
Photo: ERICO GUIZZO
This past November, the Southampton group set out on a "rescue mission" of their glacier-swallowed equipment. They found their base station half submerged in the icy lake at the bottom of the glacier. The good news was that the compact flash card that stores the glacial measurements was intact, and the group will try to recover the data.
But even if that information is lost, they believe they have gathered enough evidence to probe into the dramatic melting of the Briksdalsbreen, and they're confident their findings will help understand what may happen to other rapidly melting glaciers worldwide.
Of particular concern are: the outlet glaciers of Greenland, which play an important role in controlling ocean circulation patterns affecting the climate of Northwest Europe; and also the massive West Antarctica ice sheet, which holds a volume of water equivalent to a sea-level rise of 6 meters and, if it collapsed, as some scientists speculate, would have catastrophic consequences.
The Southampton group's study is important because, despite decades of glacial research, scientists still don't know much about what takes place at the bottom of a glacier, where the ice meets a slope of bedrock or water-soaked sediment. As one researcher puts it, "Sub-glacial dynamics is an area with a gaping hole in knowledge."
So while researchers understand some of the basic glacier-shrinking processes, they still can't create accurate computer simulations, which in turn are key to know what the future holds for Earth's ice masses. It's this piece of the puzzle that the British team hopes to supply—if they find another glacier to continue their work.

I apologize for not being as technically advanced as most cell phone users today, but have a simple (I hope) question. I have a prepaid T-mobile phone - basic phone for emergency use. I would like to have the security of a cell phone available for use while on our Ireland adventure this Septemeber. I only want to use the phone to confirm ressies and, while hopefully not needed, potentially call our B&B's and let them know we are lost or will be late. So, no fancy usage...web, cameras, etc.....and very few minutes (we hope).
Is it as simple as buying just a SIM card and that is it? If so, can I purchase one of these at the Shannon airport and how much do they generally run? If it is not that simple, what do you recommend?

In order for your phone to work in Europe, it has to be a triband or quadband and be unlocked. I have a feeling your T-mobile isn't? If you have the unlocked phone, then yes, you can an Irish SIM card and insert it.
Report Abuse
If you have a tri- or quad-band T-Mobile phone, it will work, in Ireland, but ...
TO use it with an Irish Sim will require that it is 'UNLOCKED'. If you got the phone from TMobile, they generally come 'LOCKED' -- meaning that they will ONLY work with a TMobile SIM ...
TMobile SHOULD provide you with the 'UNLOCK' code, but US Cell Companies are NOTORIOUSLY reluctant to do so in an expeditious manner ...
Again -- IT MUST BE A TRI OR QUAD BAND PHONE -- as the US uses only two frequencies, while Europeans use two DIFFERENT ones.
An Irish SIm - Vodaphone, O2 or Meteor, generally run about 10 Euro and include 1 or 2 Euro of Call Credit. A Pay-As-You-Go phone WITH SIM and a small bit of Call Credit should be available for about 40 Euro.
Last I knew, there was NO Phone Shop inside Shannon Airport -- The NEAREST would be inside the Shannon SkyCourt Mall: http://www.skycourtshannon.com/
There are also places in Ennis, Gort or Galway (if heading North), or almost ANY town of significant size, if heading South --
The available choices are pretty comperable as to rates and coverage, so you should be able to pick whatever is the best deal, on the day...
Hope this helps

We're not tied into cell phones the way many other users are, and we use our T-Mobile prepaid as back-up phones to our land line. This time when we bought our phones, we made sure to get ones that are unlocked. The firs time around T Mobile did unlock the phone for us, but, as mentioned above by another poster, they were reluctant and it took them at least 3 weeks to do this for us. So, if your trip is soon, start asking them now. I am shopping for a replacement for one of our phones and just saw some unlocked Motorola pebl phones with quad band service for $55 on e-bay.
We just returned from Ireland, and having our phone to use was marvelous. We rented a car, and our first stop after we picked it up at the Shannon airport was the Shannon SkyMall shopping center. There we went to the Vodaphone store and bought a SIM card for E10 and E20 worth of minutes. We made quite a few calls, and the E20 lasted us for the entire trip (we were running low though by the end of the trip).
Report Abuse
I bought a then NEW PEBL about 3 or 4 years ago and it served me well until I replaced it with a Nokia 6110 Navigator with built-in GPS, about 2 years ago.
In fact, last year I bought a SECOND SIM so my wife could use the PEBL. Her sister just borrowed it for a trip to the Azores, Portugal and Switzerland. She said that it worked perfectly well, on a Portugeuse SIM that she purchased at the airport in Lisbon.
$55 is a great price -- I think that I paid about $160 for mine originally.

First either post your phone model here, or check if it has the 900/1800 bands. Also, if it's locked, tmobile will give you the unlock code. Things have changed. Both tmobile and AT&T will give the unlock code if you are a customer in good standing. It's just that with the newer phones, the codes are in their database. With older phones, they have to contact the manufacturer. And this can take up to a week or so. In most cases, less. Between both carriers, I have unlocked 9 phones within the last 3 years.

CHICAGO, March 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Liquidware Labs announced today that Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen, (Hanze UAS) based in the Netherlands, used its ProfileUnity solution to accomplish a successful migration of approximately 4,500 managed desktops that encompassed university administration, faculty and regular, full-time students. Hanze UAS worked with Liquidware Labs Acceler8 partner, FlexVirtual, to assist with this project. Read the full Customer Success Story on the Liquidware Labs Customers website page.
"Hanze UAS IT Staff wants to collaborate with their partners rather than just receive services," said Alex Pelster, Director, at FlexVirtual. "They are interested in deepening their technical knowledge, which has been a consistent attribute of our successful relationship. Our philosophy at FlexVirtual is to enable our customers. We want to add to their knowledge and experience, in addition to helping them deploy a solution."
Hanze UAS IT staff knew that applications being used by employees and students required a move to Windows 7, especially in light of Windows XP End-of-Support in April 2014. So Hanze UAS IT staff planned a Windows XP to Windows 7 migration, keeping users on physical PCs with the agenda of moving users to a virtual platform over time.
"We saw early on, that no matter how we virtualized our desktops, our most immediate objective was to move users off of Windows XP and on to Windows 7 as quickly as possible," said Henk Weisbeek, who was project manager for Hanze University's desktop transformation project.
According to Weisbeek, however, planning the migration was one thing. Accomplishing it in a timely, structured fashion was another. Before too long, Hanze IT Staff quickly realized that this would be no small task to move thousands of users to Windows 7 without a specialized solution to automate the process. The main impediment to a smooth move was that Windows XP utilized a "version 1" profile and Windows 7 utilized a "version 2" profile.
"ProfileUnity has already moved us from the limitations of roaming profiles and helped us make the transition to Windows 7, which are critical steps for us to improve our workspace delivery mode and keep Hanze UAS at the forefront of education trends internationally," said Weisbeek. The University's central mission is to develop students professionally to the highest standards equipping them for careers immediately upon graduation. The caliber and quality of the IT workspace students learn on is central to ensuring that they can meet the challenges of their professions.
"FlexVirtual embodies the kind of partner that Liquidware Labs seeks out," said Chris Akerberg, president and COO of Liquidware Labs. "They are committed to developing the expertise in desktop virtualization and in our solutions so that they deliver the best outcome for their customers. Desktop transformation projects can be complex and costly without expert guidance. When a partner like FlexVirtual steps up to help manage this transition with precision and care, it makes all the difference with customers' timelines and budgets, and instills the confidence to move forward."

Behavioral Health Compliance: Making It Easy for Providers and Agencies
in Psychology
HIPAA, HITECH, Omnibus, PCI regulations - these are words that can strike fear into the heart of any Behavioral Health organization. They don't need to as we found after speaking with our guest today on Mental Health News Radio. We sat down with Marc Haskelson, the President and CEO of Compliancy Group, to find out how easy compliance can be.
Read the full article HERE.
What is the difference between HIPAA and Meaningful Use (MU) ?
Do I have to attest for Meaningful Use? What If I don't attest?
Who is considered a Vendor or a Business Associate?
I am now accepting Medicare, does that put me at a higher risk for an audit just like everyone else?
If I completed a Risk Assessment last year, do I have to do it again this year?
Is there an insurance policy available that helps an entity with HIPAA fines?
What triggers an audit? How do they know that they should audit you?
Has your software solution ever been involved where an actual audit was being done by either CMS or OCR?
If an EHR vendor or billing agency, as an example, are not following HIPAA compliance where can one go to report these actions?
Compliance: a slightly scary tool you need for success on a fat loss plan.
in Weight Loss
The ultimate, permanent weight loss secret is this: You must find a plan that allows you to get nourished and satisfied within a reasonable energy deficit. Then you must follow that plan to completion, and return to it if you begin to re-gain.

Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) - 1344
in Self Help
Tonight's special guest is Nikki DuBose from Los Angeles, a child abuse survivor who was later abused as a young professional model. Among other things, Nikki advocates on her web site for better regulation of the modeling industry (she tells me about 40% of models have an eating disorder and that there's a lot of sexual abuse/harassment). Nikki also works closely with Matt Sandusky at the "Peaceful Hearts Foundation," where she serves on the Executive Board and is their Volunteer Director. Nikki says, "I wholeheartedly believe that full recovery is possible, but it starts with speaking out and reducing the shame and stigma that is so often attached to mental health issues." In her upcoming memoir, "Washed Away: From Darkness to Light," due out later this year, Nikki details how being sexually abused as a child led to a seventeen-year battle with serious mental health issues such as eating disorders, depression, self-harm, body dysmorphic disorder, substance abuse and sexual addictions. During her career as a professional model, she encountered a great deal of success, yet that prosperity came with a high price - one that often mirrored the sexual abuse from her childhood. Coming to a place of full healing has not been easy for Nikki, but she says, "Being an advocate is what allows me to wake up every day and feel truly alive. All of that pain that I lived with for so many years is now channeled into making a difference in society. Whatever issues you're passionate about, use your voice and the resources you have; love yourself first and from there you can help to change the world."

in Education
Tune in on Saturday April 23, 2016 at 11:00 am CST
What is a virus, the origins of viruses are unclear, some may have envolved from plasmids-pieces of DNA that can move between cells- while others may have evolved from bacteria.

Here's the question you clicked on:
isnt a circle like a rectangle with one side being "r" and another being "pi-r"?
I don't think circles and rectangles are related to each other, I could be wrong here although I have never heard of this case being true math..
more like a triangle ... with one side 2 pi r and height r http://mathworld.wolfram.com/images/eps-gif/CircleAreaStrips_1000.gif
what would r represent in this case?
if it is some arbitrary length, then a rectangle with sides r and pi*r would merely have the same area as a circle of that radius r I think the relation is rather trivial personally...

AWE Unveils Updated Flagship Cam Site LiveJasmin.com

While the new site is not yet available in all regions, interested parties can grab a preview via iPad or by visiting Jasmin.com, which currently shows the new version of this fan favorite cam site.
Said to be among the world's most heavily trafficked adult entertainment websites, with an Alexa ranking of 64, the perennially popular LiveJasmin has received a substantial facelift — streamlining its presentation and incorporating a more mobile friendly and visually stimulating layout — which the company hopes will carry its flagship forward in the increasingly competitive live cam marketplace.
"The new LiveJasmin was designed with user retention in mind and to provide the ultimate live sex experience," Douglas Richter, senior authorized consultant for AWEmpire.com, told XBIZ. "AWE firmly believes that interactivity sells and never dies, and this new site is evident of that driving principal."
Offering a timely update of its parent's classic design, the new LiveJasmin.com caters to all the latest devices, including smartphones and tablets, with an iOS-friendly delivery system that works equally well on iPad, iPhone, Android, laptop and desktop platforms.
Rather than taking a chance on the latest HTML5 technology, the updated site relies on the more established XHTML 1.0 Transitional coding standard, which is a commonsense approach when updating a site with so much traffic and where visitors using a variety of legacy access devices are commonplace.
The use of an advanced content delivery network (CDN) speeds load times for visitors regardless of their location, providing a very satisfactory user experience that includes high-definition live video feeds, photo galleries with a slideshow option and more.
The site's interactive and intuitive interface is clean, elegant and simple and designed to learn and adapt to the user's preferences, for a self-customizing approach to satisfying cam customers' desires.
One handy feature is a right-hand sidebar with related rooms, so if a particular performer's preview does not suit a user's fancy, there are thumbnail images of similar performers from which to choose.
The high quality of the video feeds and still images is impressive, providing a competitive advantage as well as a selling point for affiliates.
"Loaded with the revenue proven features that made LiveJasmin a powerhouse, the new site's more elegant surface is sure to keep affiliate's traffic more deeply engaged and will drive increased spending," Richter added, concluding that "now is a great time to promote LiveJasmin."
Richter noted that the company's widely used white label editor would eventually offer the new site design as a template, allowing affiliates to further benefit from LiveJasmin's new feel and functionality.
Basic memberships are free in exchange for a valid email address, but a credit card or other payment information is not required, providing an incentive for purchase-wary prospects to explore the site further. Premium memberships enable users to enjoy private shows and intimate one-on-one chat sessions, along with the ability to send surprises to performers for personal attention, all while allowing a sneak peek into any private room.
Given the new platform's attention to detail and tech-forward approach, it is doubtless that this improved incarnation of LiveJasmin.com is a worthy successor to its parent's legacy.
