Letter from New York, 2005
January 26, 2015 | by Amie Barrodale
Adventures in tastelessness at The Onion.
I used to be an editor at The Onion. This was in 2004, when most of the original writers were still there—just a handful had gone off to Hollywood. I was hired by my friend Carol Kolb, who'd just been made editor in chief.
Carol is the funniest person I have ever known. One time we went to a German restaurant together, and our server was a cross-dresser. The cross-dresser was the newer kind. He was a man, dressed as a woman, but I think the polite thing is to use the female pronoun. She didn't wear any makeup, and she didn't have styled hair. She wore blue jeans and a shirt from the Gap. Her chin-length red hair was lackluster, and looked a little oily. She was about forty years old, and she behaved like a forty-year-old woman—tired, kind, a little weary.
I went to the restaurant a lot, and for whatever reason, she never confused me, but Carol, I have to say, was uncomfortable. It was as if she couldn't decide whether this was just a guy who had accidentally put on his wife's clothes that morning or she was a woman who had just given up all hope. Carol had trouble ordering—she stumbled over her words and couldn't meet the server's eye. I noticed she kept looking nervously at the server's breasts and hips. It wasn't too big a deal, and the server handled it like a forty-year-old woman would, not taking it personally and not acknowledging that it was happening. When the server walked away, Carol said, "I am so embarrassed. I was acting like somebody from Spencer, Wisconsin." She made her eyes glaze over as a hayseed's would if he met Divine. "I was like this!" she said, "I just couldn't get it together."
Another joke of Carol's was to say, on a crowded subway, "Did you hear about Maria's new boyfriend?" Read More »
The Art of the Obituary: An Interview with Margalit Fox
December 26, 2014 | by Alex Ronan
We're out until January 5, but we're re-posting some of our favorite pieces from 2014 while we're away. We hope you enjoy—and have a happy New Year!
In nearly twenty years and twelve hundred obituaries, Margalit Fox, a senior writer at the New York Times, has chronicled the lives of such personages as the president of Estonia, an underwater cartographer, and the inventor of Stove Top Stuffing. An instrumental figure in pushing the obituary past Victorian-era formal constraints, Fox produces features-style write-ups of her subjects whether they're ubiquitous public figures, comparatively unknown men and women whose inventions have changed the world, or suicidal poets. (More on those below.)
I caught up with Fox in the Upper West Side café where she's written two books, Talking Hands: What Sign Language Reveals About the Mind and The Riddle of the Labyrinth: The Quest to Crack an Ancient Code, the latter of which was published in paperback earlier this year. She was remarkably jovial and eager to clarify what it's like to write about the dead every day. We spoke about the history of the obituary, her love of English eccentrics, and how it feels to call a living person in preparation for his or her eventual death.
Does the work you do change the way you think about death?
This work does skew your worldview a bit. We all watch old movies with an eye toward who's getting on in age. I watch the Oscars memorial presentation and sit there going, Did him, did her, didn't do that one. For obit writers, the whole world is necessarily divided into the dead and the pre-dead. That's all there is.
How did you end up in the obituaries department?
I'd never planned for a career in obits. The child has not yet been born that comes home from school clutching a composition that says, When I grow up, I want to be an obituary writer. I started as an editor at the Times Book Review. It was wonderful to be around books and people that love books, but the job itself was copyediting. I was afraid that all they'd be able to put on my tombstone was "She Changed Fifty-Thousand Commas into Semicolons." I started contributing freelance to the obituary section and ended up getting pulled in as a full-time writer.
How is your section different from other news sections at the paper?
Ninety-five percent of our job is writing daily obits on deadline. It's impossible to have an advance written for all the pre-dead who we hope to cover, so we usually have to phone someone up to ask about a person or a subject we don't know much about. Recently, one of my colleagues was heard running around the office going, Does anyone know anything about exotic chickens?! It's that sort of thing. Read More >>
New York's First Daily Newspaper
December 9, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
Here's the front page of the inaugural edition of the American Minerva ("Patroness of Peace, Commerce and the Liberal Arts"), New York's first daily newspaper, published on December 9, 1793, from Wall Street, "nearly opposite the Tontine Coffee House." It aimed to contain "the earliest intelligence, collected from the most authentic sources," and it's full of those long s letterforms (ſ) that look like lowercase fs and were by then not long for this world.
Its editor was Noah Webster, a Federalist who wanted to discourage the French influence in the U.S. His first "address to the public" covered nearly the entire front page. (Must've been a slow news day.) "Newspapers," he wrote,
from their cheapness, and the frequency and rapidity of their circulation, may, in America, assume an eminent rank in the catalog of useful publications in a great degree, supersede the use of Magazines and Pamphlets. The public mind in America, roused by the magnitude of political events and impatient of delay, cannot wait for monthly intelligence. Daily or at furthest weekly communications are found necessary to gratify public curiosity.
The American Minerva ran for 744 issues between 1793 and 1796. It was bought out and eventually became the New York Sun, which was around until 1950. Read More »
The Swansea Boy
October 27, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
Today is the centenary of Dylan Thomas's birth. Paul Ferris's "Ink Is Wanted by Raving Brother: Dylan Thomas's Swansea Years"—an oral history of the poet's youth and early years in Wales—appeared in our Spring 2004 issue. The excerpt below explores Thomas's brief, unhappy stint as a reporter.
In 1931, probably after the summer term, Dylan Thomas left school and went to work for the local newspaper, the South Wales Daily Post. He was sixteen years old. The paper was in fact an evening title, part of a London-based chain, and changed its name to Evening Post soon after. Its early editions circulated throughout southwest Wales, but the core readership was in the Swansea area. Local commerce and politics were featured to a degree unheard of in today's vacuous local tabloids. The editor, J. D. Williams, assumed that his readers (some of them, at least) cared about music, theater, and poetry.
CHARLES FISHER (A lifelong friend of Thomas's, and a fellow reporter.): His father probably got the job on the paper for him through J. D. Williams, as my father got me mine—he was head machinist there, he ran the rotary press. And since I had some talent for writing simple sentences, it was thought I could become a reporter. No one challenged that idea. I followed Dylan as a reader's boy, a copyholder, and took that vacancy created when he moved on to be a junior reporter. I copyheld for about six months, then I was promoted to the newsroom. We wrote everything up in a strange, constricting, old-fashioned prose that really belonged to reporting at the start of the century. No one thought of treating news any other way. But our image of ourselves was a Chicago newsroom, the black hat turned down, the knowing look, the cigarette never removed once lit—which was a habit Dylan kept to the end.
ERIC HUGHES (A journalist, older than Thomas, and never very fond of his younger colleague.): I think Dylan was on the Post less than a year. I was a sub-editor, and when you saw his copy, it was appalling, with many lacunae. Nor was he reliable. To my knowledge, he wrote a crit of the Messiah at one of the St. Thomas chapels, to which he didn't bother to go. Half his time was spent in the David Evans Café where they gave you a free State Express cigarette with your coffee. Read More »
Your Newspaper: Writer's Cut, and Other News
October 21, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
- "There's an endless appetite among film buffs for the contents of the cutting-room floor. We're forever being offered outtakes and alternative endings and 'director's cuts' of movies. But what do newspaper editors excise from raw copy destined for the printed page? What would a 'writer's cut' look like?"
- Area Novelist Super Pissed He Keeps Getting Compared to Cormac McCarthy: "This is testament to the McCarthy hegemony, to how wholly he dominates an entire sector of American fiction, and to how he has usurped our understanding of a certain literary pedigree. Write a novel with a specific poetical register adequate to the task of addressing nature and redemption, one which includes the sanguinary madness of men, and McCarthy is the artist languidly at hand for every reader itching to make a connection."
- "It was difficult sometimes to eat lunch with Robert because his makeup was so realistic. His brains were hanging out of his prosthetics." An oral history of A Nightmare on Elm Street.
- Photographers have found themselves "in the age of citizen Instagrammers, in which phones carry an endless roll of virtual film, and there are so many photos that we think we're entitled to have them for free." What to do? Litigate!
- Our poetry editor, Robyn Creswell, on the novels of the Lebanese writer Rabih Alameddine: "The heroes of his fiction are all misfits of one sort or another. They rebel against what they take to be the tyrannical conventions of Lebanese society—its patriarchy, its sexual norms, its sectarianism. In most of his novels this revolt takes the form of flight to America … In America, Alameddine's characters discover that the pleasures of individualism often turn out to be empty, and their host country's foreign policy, particularly its support for Israel, is a constant irritant. So their emigration is only ever partial; the old world haunts all their attempts at reinvention."
Typographic Sanity
October 1, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
There's a post over at Print Magazine about Frank Romano's new book, History of the Linotype Company, which chronicles the rise and decline of the Linotype, a "glorious contraption" that was not so very long ago the industry standard for printing newspapers, magazines, catalogs, you name it. I'd be lying if I said I knew how it worked—to look at it is to imagine it taking your hand off—but fortunately there's Wikipedia, which explains:
The linotype machine operator enters text on a ninety-character keyboard. The machine assembles matrices, which are molds for the letter forms, in a line. The assembled line is then cast as a single piece, called a slug, of type metal in a process known as "hot metal" typesetting. The matrices are then returned to the type magazine from which they came, to be reused later. This allows much faster typesetting and composition than original hand composition in which operators place down one pre-cast metal letter, punctuation mark or space at a time.
The machine was invented by Ottmar Mergenthaler, a German immigrant who set up shop in Brooklyn. At the height of its powers, it was used in eighty-six countries and in 850 languages. And the public domain is teeming with miscellany from the Mergenthaler Company, which produced an endless succession of handbooks, manuals, brochures, and pamphlets, among them Linotype's Shining Lines, a sort of trade magazine with impeccably designed cover art:

Dr. Michelle Chatman Receives Grant from the DC Humanities Council
In the early 1960's, an anthropologist named Elliot Liebow conducted research among a group of Black men who lived, loved, and labored around the 11th and N Street neighborhood in Washington, D.C. The study was published as an ethnography called Tally's Corner: A Study of Negro Streetcorner Men in 1967. Now a seminal work in sociology and anthropology, Tally's Corner has been read by millions of college students across the nation. In 2012, Dr. Chatman, received a seed grant from the university to explore residential changes in the historic and rapidly gentrifying 11th and N Street neighborhood. Once a predominantly Black area, the community now consists of residents from various racial and ethnic, class, and cultural backgrounds including Central and South American immigrants, Asian business owners, whites, professionals, working class families, homeless men and women, and churchgoers. In October 2013, Dr. Chatman's project, Tally's Corner TALKS, was awarded a $5,000 "Who Is A Washingtonian?" grant by the Washington D.C. Humanities Council. Using the book as a focal point, her project aims to inspire dialogue among the various constituents within the community around the new identity of "Tally's Corner." In the face of the visible neighborhood change occurring in D.C., the project also seeks to understand how community members maintain their connections to the past, while engaging critically around present day issues of equity and access.
Dr. Chatman's project will culminate in a brief film screening in Summer 2014, exhibiting the beauty and diversity within this historic neighborhood, resident reactions to the book, and thoughts about a shared community vision. The Tally's Corner TALKS project is part of a larger effort to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the publication of Tally's Corner in 2017, and the contributions of urban anthropology. The project is also supported by The Center for Applied Research and Urban Polity (CARUP). Dr. Chatman, assistant professor in the Department of Criminal Justice, Sociology, and Social Work, is also a graduate of UDC's Sociology/Anthropology program (class of 1993). She is honored to have the opportunity to engage students in meaningful social science research, an experience she was afforded while an undergraduate student at the university. Dr. Chatman received her master's and doctorate degrees in Applied Anthropology, and Cultural Anthropology, respectively, from American University.
For more information about the project, contact email@example.com. Information about the Washington, D.C. Humanities Council can be obtained by visiting, www.wdchumanities.org

You could check the prices at eCreek, knowing that:
- "Buy it now", often by professionals, tend to be expensive and take months to sell;
- Auctions, often by non-pro, are cheaper, so just follow a few ones to the end to make an idea;
- Separate parts earn you much more money than the complete computer;
- But making all sales simultaneously is better: buyers can save on grouped shipping and check all your sales.

Anything below a 3Ghz must be backed up by a more powerful Graphics card.
AGP 8X should be the standard, but thier are different uses. If not PCI16X should be the standard. Meaning a low PCI16X should stand as a high AGP.
ASUS board depends on the compatibility. They are all over the place.
om must be ready. Is it region free? I believe it was June 200X, when all DVD drives got region blocked......
PSu must be a power user ready, you need to check varibles.
What makes this thing valuable is amount of RAM you have, with it. Meaning that is a good thing, for the RAM shake.
What about?
Is the case a tower, and is it cosmetic, or a boring space case, from the early 1990's?
About the NIC card? is their an NIC card?

The Original poster didn't want an OPINION on the HARDWARE, they wanted to know what HARDWARE they specified was WORTH (as a unit). The second post gave a suggestion. You gave nothing on a four month old topic and I'll bet that the OP already either kept it or sold it by now.

Q&A: Ron Shumaker, COO of Ohio Valley Surgical Hospital
- Tristan Navera
- Staff Reporter- Dayton Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
Working in a small medical practice today means navigating some choppy waters, says Ron Shumaker.
Shumaker takes on the new role of chief operating officer for Ohio Valley Surgical Hospital, a job in which he will oversee day-to-day operations in one of the few physician-owned hospitals in the Dayton region.
Ohio Valley Surgical Hospital, or OVSH, is a 200-employee physician-owned surgical care facility in Springfield.
Educated at Wright State University and a longtime resident of Springfield, Shumaker says the transition from practice administrator for Premier Health Specialists to COO at OVSH brings a new set of challenges as small practices continue to maneuver through the complex challenges impacting medicine.
Q: What is your background and how did you end up at OVSH?
A: I got involved in the medical community back in '99, working for Dayton Heart Center as their controller and later as executive director. Last summer I was approached by Ohio Valley through the Springfield Chamber of Commerce, and then back in March they came back to me, again through the chamber. As a hospital that was physician-owned and growing and needed more leadership, we talked a little bit, and I joined them on May 13. It's eight miles from my house and back in the community that I grew up in and have been in since '83.
Q: How has business changed for physician-owned practices?
A: It's changed a lot with the hospitals buying a lot of physicians groups, especially the specialty physicians. Dayton Heart Center, for example, opened up in '83 independent, until January of 2012 when Premier Health Partners bought us, so just the fact that a lot of specialty physician offices are being bought up by some of the big hospital systems are changing some of the day-to-day decision making processes in the hospitals themselves. ... More of the decisions are being made by corporate. Changes in Medicare law and reimbursement both on the practice side and reimbursement side always puts major emphasis on finding other ways, legitimately to increase revenue as well as continually provide excellent patient care.

Plus, air hockey, the arcade attraction on which the WiiWare game is based, is generally awesome and underrepresented in games. The combination of good family sports game series and air hockey seemed like a natural winner.
"Natural" and "winner" are two appelations that fail to describe Family Glide Hockey in any way.
If that method of play sounds uninspiring, there's always "auto" mode, in which the game moves the mallet for you and you just control the jabbing and special shots. As an experiment, I set the game to auto mode and put the controller down for a match. I kind of wish I could have won for dramatic purposes, but unfortunately I didn't.
I only scored three points.
As much as I love air hockey, I admit that most of my attempts to play the real game result in random goals on either side -- the puck just sort of bounces around wildly until it clatters into someone's goal. Family Glide Hockey exacerbates this problem with a design idea that seems fun at first: unusual, gimmicky tables. There's an ice-themed table with sliding iceberg-things, a woodland table with a curved shape and moving goals, and a table with jagged sides. All of which have the effect of making the damn puck fly around erratically. Don't bother trying to place your shots! They're just going to go wherever.
Beyond the single-player and obligatory multiplayer modes, Family Glide Hockey features three minigames. Glide Hockey Tracer, about changing the colors of groups of blocks by running the puck over them, is actually kind of fun, while Glide Hockey Drill, about trying to answer math problems by aiming the puck at the correct solution, is just frustrating. Right between the two (but falling loser to the "fun" side) is Glide Hockey Brawl, a game that scores you based on the collisions between your puck and bowling-pin-style arrangements of pucks.
Between the boring controls and the seeming lack of player determination of success -- along with smaller complaints like the way that sound effects make the music cut out -- there's basically nothing to recommend here. The fact that the minigames are reasonably okay (Tracer is a little bit addictive!) makes Family Glide Hockey far from the worst WiiWare offering, but it's still bland at best.
Final score: 3.5/10
We're always looking for new games to enjoy. We've got plenty of other WiiWare reviews, if you're into that kind of thing.. If you're so crazy that you want to go to the store and buy something when you could be playing World of Goo or Mega Man 9, we can help with that, too.

Ethiopia protest: Ambo students killed in Oromia state
At least nine students have died during days of protests in Ethiopia's Oromia state, the government has said.
However, a witness told the BBC that 47 were killed by the security forces.
She said the protests in Ambo, 125km (80 miles) west of Addis Ababa began last Friday over plans to expand the capital into Oromia state.
The government did not say how most of the deaths had been caused but the Ambo resident said she had seen the army firing live ammunition.
The student protestors are from Ethiopia's biggest ethnic group, the Oromo, numbering around 27 million people.
Oromia is the country's largest region, completely surrounding the capital Addis Ababa.
Its people speak their own language - Oromifa - and see themselves as very different from the Amhara.
The protesters believe they face losing their regional and cultural identity if plans to extend Addis Ababa's administrative control into parts of Oromia get the go-ahead.
Some have also raised fears of the potential for land grabs.
The so called "master-plan" for Addis Ababa is currently out for public consultation and the government says people are being given opportunities to raise their concerns.
Officials say the plan has been well publicised and will bring city services to poor rural areas.
The protestors claim they merely wanted to raise questions about the plan - but were answered with violence and intimidation.
"I saw more than 20 bodies on the streets," she said.
"I am hiding in my house because I am scared."
The Ambo resident said that four students had been killed on Monday and another 43 in a huge security crackdown on Tuesday, after a huge demonstration including many non-students.
Since then, the town's streets have been deserted, she said, with banks and shops closed and no transport.
She said teaching had been suspended at Ambo University, where the protests began, and students prevented from leaving.
In a statement, the government said eight people had died during violent protests led by "anti-peace forces" in the towns of Ambo and Tokeekutayu, as well as Meda Welabu University, also in Oromia state.
It said one person had been killed "in a related development" when a hand grenade was thrown at students watching a football match.
The statement blamed the protests on "baseless rumours" being spread about the "integrated development master plan" for the capital.
BBC Ethiopia analyst Hewete Haileselassie says some ethnic Oromos feel the government is dominated by members of the Tigre and Amhara communities and they would be loath to see the size of "their" territory diminish with the expansion of Addis Ababa, which is claimed by both Oromos and Amharas.

Poke Friends Online With Wolverine's Claws
by Amy Corr on Apr 27, 3:45 PM
Orkut is a Google-owned social networking site that's uber-popular in Brazil. To promote the upcoming film "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," premiering April 30 in Brazil, Fox Films tasked MPM Propaganda with creating a unique campaign in Orkut. The agency created an avatar for use in The Buddy Poke!, an application in Orkut where users express themselves via individualized characters. A Wolverine avatar was created that allows users of Buddy Poke! to send two different requests to friends: "claws out" or "asked to respond."

Free Coffee, Bad Grades?
by Amy Corr on Apr 20, 4:00 PM
THEY created a unique campaign for CoffeeCompany that infiltrated campuses and rewarded students with free coffee. The concept began with word-of-mouth buzz from CoffeeCompany baristas, who informed college students about a CoffeeCompany-branded Web site. The site featured branded slides that students could download and slip into a class PowerPoint presentation.

Does Ad With Fake 911 Call Offend?
by Amy Corr on Apr 13, 4:15 PM
K&G Fashion Superstore launched a TV, radio, outdoor and guerilla campaign promoting its affordable prices compared to those found in high-priced department stores. The campaign uses a new tagline, "Fashion without the victim," offering consumers brand name clothes at reasonable prices. One of the TV ads in the campaign, created by DeVito/Verdi, has been banned in numerous markets for its strong resemblance to an actual 911 tape.

Goes Together Like: PB&J And Basketball?
by Amy Corr on Apr 6, 4:15 PM
Basketball and jelly seem an unlikely pairing, unless you're a Boston Celtics fan.Kevin Garnett, power forward for the Celtics, eats a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, made with Welch's grape jelly, before games. The brand elevated its status this season by taking advantage of Garnett's love of Welch's, creating a video that runs on the jumbotron starring Welchy, dance connoisseur and Welch's mascot.

ProbationSubmitted by guest89 (not verified) on Sat, 03/29/2008 - 8:55pm.
First off it is spelled OFFENDER....secondly....it is not us who determines whose probation does and does not get revoked it is the JUDGES. All we can do is to report the violations to the courts and the courts determine whether or not to revoke probation/parole....not the officer. You don't know the countless times I have written violation reports, arrested offenders and took them back before a judge all for the judge to say, hey give them another chance. It is not probation officers who are making probation a joke....it is the court system. I guess you blame the police officers to. They kept arresting these guys and somehow they ended up back on the streets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me a break!

Way back in 1989, when Twitter was just a sound associated with birds, a 16-year-old tackled Imran Khan, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis in Pakistan and emerged with his nascent reputation further enhanced.
Cut to the present, nothing has changed for Indian cricket's seemingly eternal man. The hunger to succeed remains undiminished and this trait was reiterated by Sachin Tendulkar in a chat here with The Hindu ahead of Wednesday's Castrol Cricketing Excellence awards function.
The maestro looked back at last season's mixed results, stressed that he is one with the young lads, had words of wisdom for Unmukt Chand and also hoped that the young crop would step into the huge shoes of Rahul Dravid and V.V.S. Laxman.
Part I: The Tendulkar files
That significant hundred: After I scored my 99th hundred against South Africa at Nagpur, nobody spoke about my 100th hundred because the focus was on the World Cup. After the World Cup, everyone thought 'what next' and that's how the focus shifted to my 100. I came close to scoring it in England, scored a 94 against the West Indies and I was moving well in Australia. If I have to look at the 2011 season, it started well with a hundred at Cape Town and ended well (at Dhaka), though there were unlucky patches.
Staying fit all these years: Without the help of doctors, physios, trainers, friends, teammates and family members, things would not have been the same because when you get injured you feel deflated.
My tennis elbow kept me out for four months and I could not even hit a plastic ball with a plastic bat. I was really worried. For any sportsman, the toughest task is being patient and waiting for your injury to heal. Luckily, my wife is a doctor and that helped.
Serious senior? Not always…: I am an easy-going person. I am not serious all the time. I play pranks and it is not one-way traffic, they (the youngsters in the team) can do the same to me.
A team is a family and only if you are like that can it help make them feel at ease when they are playing."
The journey will continue: As long as I am enjoying myself, as long as I can contribute, I will play.
I have always cared about my cricket, have always valued whatever has come my way and I have not taken anything for granted.
It's about how you prepare yourself before a series, a tournament or any match.
Part II: The team
Transition blues: No one can become a Dravid or a Laxman overnight. It is going to require a number of hours of training.
Forget the hours they spent playing Tests or ODI cricket, also factor in the number of hours they spent training. Whatever the records or statistics you get to see did not happen just like that.
They worked hard for that. If the younger generation gets to play for India and if it is your passion, then you got to push your body and mind to any extent.
Last season's vagaries: It started off well and in the Cape Town Test (against South Africa), we were on top throughout the match except in the last few overs and then we knew that we had to play for a draw. After that, the World Cup was a fabulous journey. England though was a tough series and we were badly hit by injuries. Then, we had a good home series against the West Indies.
And in Australia, I thought we were in the driver's seat (in the first Test at Melbourne) and it slipped away for us.
On the second day, I had a wonderful partnership with Rahul and we were 200 plus for two and then, I got out in the last over and Rahul got out in the first over on the third morning. That was the turning point.
Dravid's high in England: He was in the zone. His concentration was spot on. There were some tough times and he overcame those obstacles brilliantly.
Ashwin's growth: He has consistently done well, not just in bowling but also in batting. He has scored a Test hundred and has had some key partnerships and it is wonderful.
Yuvraj and swirling emotions: I met Yuvraj in England in June. It was tough for me to not get emotional. I had sort of decided that I would not get that emotional in front of him because he was the one who had gone through terrible times. We went out for dinner and it was fun.
He had done everything possible that his doctors advised him to do and there is a clear cut message to all cancer patients that they can be cured.
Unmukt and the road ahead: Unmukt has proved himself right now, but this is the beginning of a journey. Before the under-19 team left to Australia, I spent an hour with them in Mumbai.
Without collective effort, success can't be gained and there were many moments when others contributed and at the big moment, Unmukt batted brilliantly.
I told them that they should spend as much time as they can with each other because it is going to be a tough journey.

US 5396807 A Abstract The gas flow rate and liquid flow rate of a two phase fluid flow are determined by passing the fluid flow down an inclined pipe to stratify the flow. The fluid pressure, temperature and density are measured along with the liquid density. The differential pressure is measured to determine the dynamic head of the fluid. These measurements are used together to determine the gas flow rate and the liquid flow rate.
Claims(2) 1. A method for measuring the liquid flow rate and the gas flow rate of a fluid containing these two phases comprising the steps of:
stratifying said fluid by flowing down an incline; measuring the pressure and temperature of said fluid; measuring the density of the total fluid; measuring the dynamic head of the bulk liquid; and measuring the density of the liquid portion only of the fluid to positively determine liquid and gas flow rates of a fluid mixture having gas and liquid phases present. 2. An apparatus for measuring both the liquid flow rate and the gas flow rate in a fluid containing both liquid and gas, said apparatus comprising:
inclined pipe means to stratify the fluid flow; means to measure the temperature and pressure of the fluid flowing in said pipe; differential pressure means adapted to measure the liquid dynamic head; first densitometer means to measure the density of the total fluid; and second densitometer means to measure the density of the liquid portion of the fluid, whereby the flow rates of both the gas portion and the liquid portion of the fluid can be determined. Description 1. The Field of the Invention The present invention pertains to a means and method for determining the liquid flow rate and gas flow rate of a fluid mixture containing these two phases. 2. The Prior Art A fundamental measurement required in many industries is the measurement of the flow of liquids and gases and a determination of their respective rates of flow. Special consideration is being directed, by sectors of the oil industry interested in the development of sub sea production technology, to liquid rate meters which are passive (i.e. have no moving parts) and offer high reliability, availability and proven performance. The innovative recognition of gas-liquid stratification that occurs in a downwardly inclined section of flow line has led to several means for measuring the liquid and gas flow rates. These means have generally included active components, i.e. components with moving parts. Example of this type of apparatus can be found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,660,414; 4,760,742; 5,048,348; 5,127,272; and 5,195,380, all owned by the common assignee and the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. The present invention is also based on the use of a downwardly inclined section of a flow line, but is totally passive and makes use of components of proven reliability, availability and performance. The liquid and gas flow metering device of the present invention is completely passive (i.e. has no moving parts), operates over a broad range of flow rates and conditions, is suitable for high operating pressures (e.g. greater than 3600 psia), introduces negligible pressure losses, can be used subsurface as well as on the surface, and has a self draining configuration which does not trap fluids or entrained solids when the system is shut in. The present invention will be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a side elevation, partially broken away, of a gas flow and liquid flow metering device according to the present invention; and FIG. 2 is a representative cross section used to explain certain computations in the present invention. An embodiment of an apparatus for performing the present invention is shown in schematic form in FIG. 1. The apparatus 10, which is an inclined stratifying device of the type mentioned above, is connected between pipes 12, 14 by known flange coupling means 16,18. The stratifying portion includes integral riser pipe 20 and downwardly inclined pipe 22 of known internal diameter and cross sectional configuration. Pressure measuring means 24 and temperature sensing means 26 are shown connected to the riser to sense the pressure and temperature, respectively, of the fluid mixture in the pipe. A first density measuring means 28 is mounted on the inclined pipe substantially normal to the surface of the liquid flowing therethrough to determine the average density of the fluid stream in the inclined pipe segment 22. A second density measuring means 30 is mounted in the inclined pipe transverse to the axis of the pipe, but positioned to be below the surface of the liquid flowing therein, to determine the density of the liquid, with any entrained gas, flowing in the lower portion of the inclined pipe. Differential pressure sensing means 32, with probes above and below the flowing liquid, determine the dynamic head of the liquid, with any entrained gas, flowing in the lower portion of the inclined pipe 22. The following detailed discussion describes how the liquid flow and gas flow rates are determined using the present invention. The measurement of pressure and temperature, with the knowledge of thermodynamic properties of the fluid mixture's liquid and gas components, enable the depth of the liquid, with any entrained gas, in the inclined flow line section to be calculated from the average density measurement utilizing the following equation: ##EQU1## in which: 1=depth of the liquid (with entrained gas). D=inside diameter of the pipe. ρavg =average density of fluid flowing down the inclined pipe section, measured by means 28 in a plane oriented perpendicular to the axis of the inclined pipe. ρgas =density of the gas at the pressure and temperature of the flowing fluid. ρliq-g =density of liquid (with entrained gas) measured via means 30 in a horizontal plane oriented perpendicular to pipe at an elevation immediately upstream of the dynamic head probe inlet. The cross sectional area of the inclined section occupied by the liquid, containing some entrained gas, can now be determined if the configuration of the cross section is known. For example, consider an inclined section with a circular cross-sectional area. This is illustrated in FIG. 2. The angle α, which indicates the radial portion of the inclined section occupied by the liquid with entrained gas, is determined from the equation: ##EQU2## and the area occupied by the liquid with entrained gas is: ##EQU3## The velocity of the liquid with entrained gas, Vliq-g, is determined by the measurement of the dynamic head via means 32 from the relationship: ΔPdyn =1/2ρliq-g Vliq-g 2 in which Δρdyn denotes the dynamic head measurement. Rearranging gives ##EQU4## Therefore, the volumetric liquid rate (with entrained gas), Qliq-g is Qliq-g =Aliq-g Vliq-g Correcting for the gas entrained in the liquid, ##EQU5## in which Xgas-entr ="entrained" gas fraction Qliq =corrected volumetric liquid flow rate. ρliq =density of liquid at temperature and pressure of flowing fluid. Similarly, the total gas fraction, Xgas, is obtained from: ##EQU6## and the total gas rate, Qgas, is defined by ##EQU7## All measurements are made by industry accepted passive means. The design evolved from considering alternative ways to determine liquid flow rate using liquid stratification within downwardly inclined flow line sections. The use of devices, such as pitot tubes, to determine the dynamic head of the flow stream is a classic measurement that has been proven an accurate way to determine the velocity of a flowing stream. The present invention may be subject to many modifications and changes, which will occur to those skilled in the art, without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. Therefore the present embodiment should be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive of the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims. Patent Citations

Write a ReviewLooks fantastic!
By Marilynne from Eugene, OR on Jul 24, 2010
We installed our fixture in the uplight position because we thought it just looked better that way. My husband said it was a little difficult to install because he needed 3 hands. It did come with complete instructions. Our shades are the square, flat rim, no veins. Online the sample looks white but in reality they have a yellow cast to them. That's my only complaint about the light because it does cast a very yellow light as opposed to a brighter "white" light. We have tried different light bulbs (natural, bright white) but it didn't matter. I like the fixture so well that I'll just live it. The metal is definitely not flimsy - it's very sturdy. I love the styling! If this is the look you're going for, you won't go wrong with this fixture.

Win the back-yard arms race with the Saturator AK-47 Automatic Water Gun
By Darren Quick
May 28, 2010
If you're really looking to shine in any water-based hostilities this summer then the Saturator AK-47 Automatic Water Gun could be just what the aquatic arms dealer ordered. This weapon ups the ante on any previous manually powered water guns that rely on the handle being pumped to fire a semi-continuous stream of water. With the battery powered Saturator all one needs to do is hold down the trigger until the ammo runs out.
The Saturator gives users the ability to shoot four water "bullets" per second up to a distance of 20 feet. Its removable clip holds 5.75 ounces of water, which equates to around 250 "bullets", or over a minute of continuous shooting. Unfortunately, extra clips aren't available so trigger-happy shooters will need to carry additional ammo in the form of a water bottle or hold a defensive line near a hose or other H20 rich location.
The gun is powered by four AA batteries and is also water resistant, so any casual contact with water won't result in any short circuiting – although the manufacturer doesn't recommend continually submersing the gun in water.
The Saturator AK-47 Automatic Water Gun is available from Vat19 in blue, yellow or clear, and is priced at US$19.95.

Big deal! There were motorized pump squirt guns in the 1980's, before the air powered Super Soaker hit the scene.
