I recently received quite a few passionate "Letters to the Editor" in reference to one of our safety articles. Based on this feedback, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you. For years, "Forensic Casebook" has been one of our most popular departments. Detailing real-world cases, these articles are written by forensic engineers who examine every aspect of an electrical accident. This format is valuable because it shows readers what can and does go wrong in the field, giving them a chance to learn from others' mistakes. Although I consistently find that readers commend our forensic articles for their practical safety lessons, I also get a fair share of those who take exception to certain points, as they did with our September 2011 article on page 10. "The Case of the Ladder and Line Collision," also available online at: http://ecmweb.com/design_engineering/case-of-the-ladder-line-collision-20110901/ , left quite a few readers perplexed. Although it's important to read details of the full article, here's the case in a nutshell.
A painter was electrocuted at a rural church after the 32-foot aluminum ladder he was moving came in contact with a 7.2kV power line. The plaintiff (widow of the deceased painter) sued the local electric utility. Despite the painter's awareness of the danger of the power line hazard, his decision to use an aluminum ladder, and the fact that he violated OSHA guidelines, the jury found in favor of the plaintiff, based in part on the testimony of the expert witness/author of the article, who maintained that the electric utility should have taken human nature into consideration during the design of the system, as well as the fact that certain types of accidents are foreseeable, if not probable. Many of you felt this testimony was flawed and that the verdict was unfair, saying what good are standards if expert witnesses deem that they're ultimately not good enough, that designers can't be expected to have crystal balls to overcompensate for common sense, and that although tragic, the victim's death was solely the result of his own laziness. In the end, the jury awarded the plaintiff $4.85 million, finding the electric utility 85% liable for the accident. I have to admit that, as an ex-utility engineer, I too was somewhat shocked at the jury's decision. Although I know there are instances where you should consider adding in additional safety factors when designing a system, I do not feel you should be expected to overcome every foreseeable obstacle. If designers followed this type of thinking, then nothing would ever get built. That being said, this type of debate is the very reason we run these types of articles — to spark industry discussion and promote a safer work environment. Following is a statement from Dr. Michael Morse, author of the article. A full professor of electrical engineering at the University of San Diego, he has reviewed hundreds of electrical injury cases.
"I have made a career out of studying electric shock cases and learning how we interact with the technology we create. The case presented provides some classic learning points. While we may be offended by someone (not in the industry) who has not yet upgraded to a (more costly) fiberglass ladder, gets killed in a power line contact incident, and then wins lots of money for his family, this case presents points of design and law that, if followed, will save lives. First, there is good reason that no law or code prohibits designing beyond the code. No matter how well thought out, codes represent minimums that must always be considered in the context of the environment in which they are applied. Second, the law recognizes that those with superior knowledge have a duty to those with lesser knowledge. In this case, had the designer spent just a few minutes with those two points — and then just a minute more considering that there was vast open space in all directions away from the building — it should have been obvious that design beyond the code would lessen the risk of very foreseeable contact with the power line. A few minutes would have saved a few million dollars in costs, but, more importantly, it would have allowed a man to go home that night. Everyone in this industry needs to learn to take those few minutes, turn off their autopilot, and perhaps save a life or two by making design choices that consider the code, the law, human nature, and the environment in which they all meet."
Let the debate continue!

Not Return Void (Africa Journal #4)
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jul 31, 2010 Category: Articles
Logistics intimidate me. Had I been present at the sermon that preceded the feeding of the five thousand I wouldn't have heard a word. My mind would have been rather occupied with that one burning question — How are we ever going to feed all these people? There I would have been failing to hear the words of life from the Bread of Life all because I was worried about where bread would come from.
Because this is such a great weakness of mine, it is, in turn, cause for great appreciation for those gifted in the area of logistics. On my recent trip to visit several Rafiki Villages in four African countries, I was privileged to visit with John Chunn, the chairman of the board at the Rafiki Foundation. He oversees operations, not in four, but in ten African countries and the US. I was privileged to visit with Chris Moyer as well. He is the chief architect for all the villages and is responsible for planning, building and protecting hundreds of buildings. Some on our trip are recording sundry events for present and future fundraising needs. Others with us focused their attentions on the difficult task of gathering handcrafts put together by local widows for sale at the Rafiki Exchange in Florida. All of this would make my head spin, even were I not dealing with a foreign culture and jet lag.
All of these good labors, however, exist for something I understand — that the orphans, the widows, the nationals, the overseas missionaries, the staff, and even outsiders like me, might know God through the teaching of His Word. Buildings will crumble. Funds may dry up. Plates may stop spinning and come crashing to the ground. But the Word of God will have its effect. Nothing encouraged me more during my time with these good folks than to see the total Bible saturation. The Bible is read. The Bible is taught. The Bible is memorized. The Bible is sung. And that — not our strategies, not our tactics, not our wisdom, not our zeal, not our insight — is what will change everything.
Too often our understanding of missions suffers from the same weaknesses as our understanding of education. With the latter we think if we can accept the basic premise, model and structure of the government's schools but remove evolution and sundry other forms of leftist propaganda, we will do well. With the former we think if we do the work of the Peace Corps and add a Bible verse or two, we will do well. Of course we are to clothe them and feed them. We don't clothe them and feed them, however, because this is what will change them. We don't care for their needs because western niceties will create western comforts. We don't build schools because education is the answer. We are not seeking to make them modern, but faithful. We do these things that we might give those in need the words of life, the Word of God. When God speaks, a few loaves and fishes become abundance. When God speaks, light comes from darkness. When God speaks, life comes from death. When God speaks, He calls us to draw near, to hearken to His Word, and He promises to fill us.

Lightly tap and brush Bright Sunshine eyeshadow directly above the crease to soften. To finish the eyeshadow look, sweep Femme-fi eyeshadow as a highlighter on the brow bone. Bring everything together by applying Blacktrack fluidline on the upper lash line, Blackline eyeliner on the outer half of the lower lash line and Bright Sunshine eyeshadow lightly patted below the lower lash line with the 219 brush. Finish by sweeping lashes with Opulash and Plushlash mascara.For cheeks, apply Sugarbomb blush to the apples of the cheeks and sweep upwards towards the temple with the 116.For lips, apply Morange lipstick first, and then layer Venus glossimer for a complementing lip. or try Schiap lipstick layered with Back to the Fuchsia lip shine.Check out more photos!

STRANGE BUT TRUE- Pointless explosion: Why the galaxy is like a yo-yo
Q. There was something almost comforting in the old idea that after all the outracing galaxies emanating from the Big Bang 15 billion years ago finally "run out of gas," they'd come gravitationally falling back in together toward a Big Crunch– maybe to be followed by Big Bang II or III... The universe i like a big accordion. But you can scratch that idea, say cosmologists today. Instead, where are all the galaxies racing toward, including our own Milky Way? –C. Sagan
A. We're riding a pointless explosion to nowhere, never to run out of gas, never to return, as writer John Updike put it. Rather the galaxies seem to be expanding at an accelerating rate, though no one can say "where" they're headed since space itself is expanding, says Massachusetts Institute of Technology physicist Scott Hughes. From the point of view of us in the Milky Way, all the other galaxies are racing away from us while we sit still; to alien astronomers in another galaxy, all the other galaxies are racing away from them– a little like spots on a balloon growing more distant from each other as the balloon is inflated.
Are there exceptions? Yes, says Hughes: if two galaxies are close enough, their gravitational interaction can overwhelm space expansion, such as our Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy racing toward a spectacular collision with each other, probably in a few billion years.
But whether that beats racing to nowhere is hard to say.
Q. It's the largest organ of the body, a little over 20 pounds for a 150-pound person. It fends off microbes and functions as a body thermostat as its blood vessels constrict or dilate. A single square centimeter contains some 200 nerve endings, 100 sweat glands, 15 oil glands, 10 hairs, 2 cold receptors and 25 pressure-sensing receptors. What's this busy body part? –S. Burton
A. Skin, says Sandra S. Gottfried in Biology Today. Basically, we're all bags of bones and water, and our skin's the bag.
Q. Can anybody guess the product when 111,111,111 is multiplied by 111,111,111? –C.VanDoren
Q. Extreme summer heat raises the question: "Are greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere a good or a bad thing?" Basically, greenhouse gases slow the escape of heat from a planet's surface, causing it to warm up.–A. Gore
A. This is not the same as asking "Is global warming a good or a bad thing?" Some greenhouse gases are present naturally in the atmosphere, and with them, the global average temperature is about 59 degrees F, say Jeffrey Bennett and William Briggs in Using and Understanding Mathematics: A Quantitative Reasoning Approach. That's the temperature of a deep cave. Without these gases, the global temperature would be closer to a frigid 0 degrees F. "Thus the greenhouse effect is a good thing for life on Earth," the authors write.
But it has been shown that carbon dioxide is increasing in concentration in the atmosphere. And on Venus, a runaway greenhouse effect has sent temperatures soaring (global warming) to around 870 degrees F, "demonstrating that even for planets it's possible to have too much of a good thing."
Q. It's called "the Fermi paradox," and the deeper humankind looks into it, the more profound its implications become. As Arthur C. Clarke once pointed out, the question must have an answer, one way or other, and either way, it will be equally amazing. In fact, if we ever learn the answer, it will cause the most dramatic shift in the status of our human species that has ever occurred in history. What is this famous question? –A. C. Clarke
A. Nobel-prize winning physicist Enrico Fermi posed this during a 1950 discussion with other scientists about extraterrestrial intelligence: If alien civilizations really are as common as it seems they ought to be, "Where is everybody?" Partly the answer to this means thinking about what a grown-up civilization might do, says Jeffrey Bennett in Beyond UFOs. Though we've never yet met one, Bennett explains, I have a pretty good idea what we humans must do to become one: We must grow and grow in wisdom because only if we learn to find solutions to worldly problems such as global warming, poverty, disease, terrorism and war– and only if we do all of this together– can we stay around long enough to gain the necessary knowledge and technology to reach outward to embrace "what lies beyond." If we can do this, "the possibilities that await us are infinite."

DailyDirt: The Unquestioned Benefits Of Chocolate
from the urls-we-dig-up deptIn a few days, a lot of chocolate will be eaten by kids (and maybe their parents), and there will also be a lot of discounted candy and chocolate on sale in many grocery stores. Just so that we don't feel too bad about indulging on Halloween treats, here are a few studies that might ease our guilt for a while.
- The chocolate consumption of an entire country can be correlated with the chances of winning Nobel prizes. This study brought to you by the Correlation Is Not Causation Foundation. Seriously. [url]
- Chocolate can be made even healthier by replacing its fat content with fruit juice. By the addition of a Pickering emulsion of fruit juices and milk, a low-fat chocolate can maintain its chocolatey taste and texture -- which will just encourage chocoholics to eat even more chocolate than they should.... [url]
- If you're looking for an excuse to eat more chocolate, a study of 1,000 adults found a correlation that people who eat chocolate more frequently tend to be thinner. To really complete this study, the researchers would need to compare chocolate eaters with non-chocolate eaters -- and come up with a realistic chocolate placebo. [url]
Filed Under: causation, chocolate, chocolate placebo, correlation, emulsion, nobel prizes

From the Allergic Living archives. FIrst published in the magazine in 2009.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck is used to getting what she goes for. "I came of the mentality that if you work hard for something, you have a good shot of getting it," says the 32-year-old. She was chosen as a contestant on the second season of the reality TV show "Survivor", which aired in 2001, and made it to the final four in the Australian Outback. She auditioned for Barbara Walters' TV show "The View" in 2003 – and got the coveted job on the women's panel. But when it came to starting a family, diligence wasn't doing the trick. "And 'Ķ we were working hard!" Hasselbeck tells Allergic Living with a laugh on the phone from New York.
While she'd figured out that her body didn't tolerate gluten well, she had no idea that celiac disease was playing a role in preventing her from getting pregnant. The symptoms of celiac disease come in many forms, including: stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhea, chronic fatigue and anemia. But people with untreated celiac disease can also have vitamin deficiencies, migraines, bone and joint pain, depression, weight loss and, as was the case for Hasselbeck, trouble conceiving a child.
What's alarming is that for some people, "infertility may be the only symptom of celiac disease," says Dr. Ralph Warren, a gastroenterologist in Toronto. Many women, however, don't get diagnosed with celiac disease until post-menopause, while others don't find out at all. For those whose dream is to have a family it's an unfortunate reality since, as Dr. Peter Green of The Celiac Disease Center in New York says: "It's a treatable, reversible cause of infertility."
The two years the Hasselbecks spent trying to conceive after they got married in 2002 were frustrating for Elisabeth. "This was supposed to be on my timeline, I was supposed to be pregnant by now," she recalls thinking.
Hasselbeck knew she'd had longstanding health troubles, which began in 1997. There were the intense stomach cramps, periods of lethargy and her thyroid problem. She went to doctor after doctor and was diagnosed with stress and irritable bowel syndrome. But no treatment helped. Then after 39 days in the Outback eating almost nothing on "Survivor", her symptoms miraculously went away.
After the show, it dawned on her: something she was eating must be causing the symptoms. Eventually, she zeroed in on gluten, and concluded she had celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder in which the body reacts to gluten, the protein found in wheat, barley and rye. This leads to damage in the small intestine where the villi, small finger-like projections that absorb nutrients, are flattened. As she describes in her new book, The G Free Diet, despite eating, Hasselbeck had become malnourished.
She began eradicating gluten from her diet, the only way to treat celiac disease, and started to feel better. But the problem was, without a formal diagnosis, Hasselbeck would sometimes inadvertently eat gluten, since she hadn't learned about all the hidden sources.

Marygrove College Appoints Rose Gorman as First Tuxedo Project Residential Fellow
DETROIT, MI, May 17, 2017—Marygrove College today announced that it has named Rose Gorman as the first residential fellow of the Tuxedo Project. This appointment will be effective August 15.
Made possible in part by a $150,000 John S. and James L. Knight Foundation grant, Marygrove and The Tuxedo Project Detroit, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt charitable organization, are working together to transform 7124 Tuxedo Street in Detroit into a writer's residence and community literary center. This is the once-abandoned and blighted childhood home of Stephen Henderson, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and Detroit Free Press Editorial Page Editor.
"We knew that the Residential Fellow had to have a dynamic personality as well as an extensive background in community engagement," said Dr. Darcy Brandel, chair of Marygrove's English and Modern Languages Department. "Rose's experience and her commitment to serving the needs of traditionally marginalized groups make her an ideal fit for both Marygrove and the Tuxedo neighborhood."
Gorman will teach classes at Marygrove College, live in the restored house at 7124 Tuxedo, run the literary center there, and provide outreach and resources to the community.
Gorman has served as Community Engagement Manager for the national oral history organization StoryCorps and as Program Director at the NY Writers Coalition, a community-based writing organization dedicated to working with underserved populations: youth, seniors, women, the LGBTQ community, those who have been incarcerated, homeless individuals, and immigrants. She holds a Master of Arts degree in literature with a concentration in creative writing from Binghamton University, State University of New York (SUNY), and a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from St. John's University.
Founded by the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) in 1905, Marygrove College is
an independent liberal arts college and a Catholic institution of higher learning. The College's
commitment to the city of Detroit comprises an institutional mission and vision for developing urban
leaders. The main campus is situated on 53 wooded acres in northwest Detroit.

With the finish line in sight, Tony Stewart won the race when he pushed past the two drivers in front him -- Regan Smith and Brad Keselowski -- as they spun out of control into an oncoming pack.
DAYTONA BEACH -- Tony Stewart was shaken when he climbed from his Chevy in Victory Lane, following Saturday's Nationwide Series DRIVE4COPD 300 at Daytona International Speedway.
His face was solemn, and when he spoke, his voice cracked.
With the finish line in sight, Stewart won the race when he pushed past the two drivers in front him -- Regan Smith and Brad Keselowski -- as they spun out of control into an oncoming pack.
Behind Stewart, 12 cars were collected. Rookie Kyle Larson's Chevy went airborne and slammed into the fence, breaking in half. Larson's engine block punctured the fence, sending debris into the stands.
Twenty-eight fans were treated for injuries, according to Daytona International Speedway President Joie Chitwood III. Fourteen of the fans were transported from the Speedway, Chitwood said. The other 14 were treated at the Speedway's infield care center. All of the drivers involved in the crash were treated and released from the infield care center, Chitwood said.
"I could see it all in the mirror, and it didn't look good from where I was at," Stewart said, referring to the last-lap crash that caused the race to end under caution.
"We've always known since racing was started that this was a dangerous sport," Stewart said. "But we assume that risk, and it is hard when fans get caught up in it."
As Stewart spoke, Larson's engine block lay smoldering, tangled in the fence just across the track. Rescue crews worked their way into the stands to attend to the injured.
"I was getting pushed from behind," said the 20-year-old Larson, who was making his first Nationwide start. "By the time my spotter said, 'Lift or go up,' it was too late. I was in the wreck. It felt like it was slowing down, and looked like I could see the ground or something like that. Then, some flames came into the cockpit, but, luckily, I was all right."
It was Stewart's seventh Nationwide win in his last nine February starts at Daytona, and his 19th victory at the Speedway.
Sam Hornish Jr. finished second, followed by Alex Bowman, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Parker Kligerman.
Daytona 500 pole winner Danica Patrick managed just 31 laps before the engine gave out in her Chevy.
As a pack of cars roared to the finish line, Smith's Chevy somehow found a hole and slid to the back of the pack before colliding with Earnhardt Jr. But Keselowski's Ford caught Larson, spinning him before sending him flying into the fence.
Smith admitted he was trying to block Keselowski from taking the lead.
"I tried to throw a block,'' he said. "It's Daytona, you want to go for the win here. I don't know how you can play it any different other than concede second place, and I wasn't willing to do that. Our job is to put them in position to win, and it was, and it didn't work out."
The race -- which featured 20 lead changes -- ended under caution and was slowed seven times for 26 laps. Stewart's Chevy led two times for three laps.
The race was red-flagged for 20 minutes with three laps to go after Michael Annett's car went high and pushed Austin Dillon into the wall, starting an 11-car crash. Annett was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center and kept overnight for observation, Richard Petty Motorsports said. Annett was treated for bruising on his chest and underwent a CT Scan.

Benefits of Medical Alert System in Washburn Illinois
The experts we consulted recommend looking for a medical alert system that meets all or most of these criteria.
It works for a user's specific disability. For example, a stroke survivor may need a device he or she can activate with one hand.
It offers a choice of a wristband and/or neck pendant. Cords worn around the neck can pose a strangulation risk; wristbands may irritate those with skin ailments.
It includes help buttons that can be wall-mounted near the floor in multiple rooms in case the user falls and isn't wearing the pendant.
It offers multiple choices for whom to contact if you need help, from emergency services to a friend or relative who lives nearby.
It has a battery backup in case of a power failure.
The base station can be contacted from anywhere on your property"even in your yard or at your mailbox.
The company has its own monitoring center, in the U.S., and employs its own trained emergency operators (rather than contracting that function out).
The monitoring center has been certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a nonprofit safety and consulting company.

Questions about the Personal Emergency Response System
A medical alarm can produce a huge difference in the lives of elderly people and people with special needs. Also known as a medical alert or Personal Emergency Response System (PERS), it was created to signal the presence of a hazard needing instant awareness and summon emergency medical workers. Seniors or disabled people residing by themselves are the primary users of this kind of device.
Household accidents are common, but there are instances where they can be fatal. These are mostly cases where victims may have made it if help had showed up sooner. Seniors or individuals with disabilities have a higher risk for these things, and may be unable to cope with them without having assistance. This is when a medical alarm could be invaluable.
The standard of help that wearers of medical alert system have entitlement to is another major selling point. People who answer calls at the monitoring center are trained to handle medical emergencies and will provide instant assistance. Users' private information is usually kept on file to ensure that good care and precautions are taken when responding to medical problems or emergencies.
Among the reasons why elderly people move to assisted living facilities and leave their homes is the fear that there won't be any one to help in an emergency or accident while living alone. However, there are many who feel that they may lose their sense of independence inside a an elderly care facility or retirement home. Using a medical alarm can successfully eliminate the primary reason for going into an assisted living situation and allows seniors to have their dignity and freedom intact.
Just like all consumer products, medical alert systems vary in terms of price and features such as range, hours of standby power, repair and replacement options, payment options, and setup time. There are numerous providers and vendors for this service, so it is important to do some research and product comparison before buying. This way, users can be assured of a product that fits their needs and lifestyle.

How to pick the right one in IL
Medical alarm systems for seniors can mean the difference between life and death. Each year, more than one-third of senior citizens living alone experience a fall. This is a terrifying event if the person has to spend hours or days on the floor with no help. This or any other type of emergency requires immediate medical attention. Receiving immediate care decreases the level of sustained injuries and increases the chances of survival.
Literally having a medical alarm system at your fingertips ensures prompt medical care in an emergency. Many seniors fear falling when no one is around. This causes many to limit their daily activities. A reduction in physical fitness and mobility can increase the risk of falling. Further, inactivity reduces the quality of life for many seniors.
The security of a medical alert system removes the daily risks for many seniors. A medical alert system from companies such as Monitor Me helps thousands of seniors regain their independence, sense of security and quality of life.
In the age of the cell phone, many seniors might think a medical alert system is redundant. Unlike a cell phone that is subject to dropped calls, a medical alert system is designed to be reliable and simple to use. Even during a stressful situation, all a senior citizen has to do is press a button. He or she is immediately connected to a certified EMT who assesses the situation and provides paramedics with pertinent information.
Everyone does not carry a cell phone constantly. However, the pendant that comes with the alert system can be worn as a necklace or bracelet. Further, not many cell phones continue to work after being submerged in water. The pendant is waterproof and can be worn in slippery places where an accident might happen.
Compared to a cell phone that requires charging, medical alert systems come with a battery backup. Even when the power goes out, the system will continue to operate. A prompt connection occurs each time the button is pushed.
How a Medical Alert System helps you?
Do your aging parents need a home medical alert system?
Part of the aging process includes increased frailty, and increased chance of accidents. All it takes is one fall for an elderly person to end up with months of hospitalizations, medical bills, rehabilitation, and more. In addition, the elderly are more likely to have medical issues that may require immediate attention. And there are, of course, a host of other problems that can come up as well, from a furnace going out in the middle of winter, to a tree falling due to a thunderstorm. They may need help, and not be able to reach a phone. Whatever the reason, it is easy to see why your aging parents need to be able to contact help quickly if needed; the kind of help that home medical alert systems can provide.
Choose a home medical alert system that is right for your senior
Trying to sort through the hundreds of home medical alert systems can be overwhelming and confusing. Careful research of all of the features of the systems being considered is an important first step in choosing the best one for your aging parents. The best way to start is by learning how these systems are designed to work.
You will find that most home medical alert systems fall into two different categories: those that come with 24/7 monitoring services, and those that provide equipment only, but no service.
Home medical alert systems with monitoring service
Home medical alert systems that provide a monitoring service will usually include a service agreement between the customer and the monitoring company. These types of systems work like this: if the alert device is activated, the monitoring system is notified, and they in turn, contact the designated people and/or emergency personnel.
An important consideration when choosing a system with monitoring is that they are typically more expensive than products without. There will be a monthly fee charged for this service, which can be in the range of $30-40 per month, in addition to an installation or activation fee.

Industrial cooling systems use some of the biggest pumps in constant operation, but lack of responsibility around their set-up often leads to reduced efficiency and expensive energy bills, according to Michael Laustsen, Grundfos Application Manager.
"Often a consultancy company will buy a cooling compressor from one supplier, the cooling tower from another, then the pumps from us and get a local contractor to put it together," explains Michael Laustsen. "If the contractor is unaware of what to do about the connections and programs them incorrectly, the energy waste and cost implications are huge," he says.
"The focus is usually on optimising the process of whatever the factory is producing. Nobody really takes responsibility for ensuring that the cooling system operates efficiently."
Grundfos can help companies to avoid such expensive inefficiency – with savings of up to 70% or more in common scenarios with changing system loads.
"We have been in this business for decades," says Michael Laustsen. "We have the depth of knowledge of cooling systems and electronics to solve the issue. We know the suppliers of cooling towers and cooling compressors, and we know how the components operate together. We also have the control systems, so we can actually do something about it."
"Industrial cooling applications rarely have a constant load. As soon as you cut the load, the direct temperature control solution is by far the most beneficial."
Michael Laustsen, Grundfos Applications Manager
Choosing a control strategy
If we take a standard heat exchanger as an example, there are three main ways to control the temperature out (Figures 1-3, in ascending order of total efficiencies achieved).
Each solution has the same purpose: to maintain constant temperature out of the heat exchanger. Which one is chosen can have a significant impact on overall system efficiency and, therefore, running costs.
The second option (Figure 2) also regulates temperature with a valve, but incorporates a frequency converter in order to maintain constant differential pressure.
"This solution has the benefit of avoiding excessive pressure in the system and saving some energy compared to the first set-up," says Michael Laustsen. "However, the issue of pressure loss over the valve still remains, and set-up costs increase, since it requires both a regulating valve and a frequency converter. Also, the system becomes complicated as you have two regulations to get to one duty point."
No valve needed
The third set-up takes a more direct approach. No regulating valve is required, since a sensor measures temperature where it is most important – in the heat exchanger pipe – and sends the signal directly to the pump, which has a frequency converter. The pumping speed changes depending on how much flow is needed to get the right temperature.
"There are no extra control cabinets, electronic converters or regulating valves between the critical point where you monitor the temperature and the component giving you what you want," explains Michael Laustsen. "So, for instance, there is no problem of pressure loss via the valve. The pump maintains high efficiency no matter what the variation in load, and it uses less energy.
"It is also possible to monitor and store temperature data, which is particularly useful for food, beverage and pharmaceutical companies who have to document everything," he adds.
"The only drawback of this approach is that it cannot be used in all applications – for instance, if you have more than one cooling loop after the pump. Then the system cannot work out which pump to regulate, so you will have to choose setup No. 2 with constant differential pressure."
"Nobody really takes responsibility for ensuring a factory's cooling system operates efficiently."
Michael Laustsen, Grundfos Applications Manager
Increase efficiency and save energy
For pumps that are small and/or seldom used, system efficiency is not a major concern, but cooling pumps tend to be among the largest running in a factory and run 24/7. That means cooling applications are highly influenced by the control strategy, system efficiency and the load profile.
"If you have a system that requires the same duty point all the time and the pump is sized properly, there is no difference in results between the three regulating strategies," explains Michael Laustsen. "But industrial cooling applications rarely have a constant load. As soon as you cut the load, the direct temperature control solution is by far the most beneficial" (see Figure 4).
Source: Grundfos
The influence of load profiles on energy use
Clearly, therefore, it is vital to consider the load profile when choosing a set-up. The three sample load profiles in Figure 5 show significant savings with the constant differential set-up compared to the regulated valve system. However, direct temperature control is by far the most energy-efficient option.
"Most cooling pumps are oversized, and load profile C is the most common we come across," says Michael Laustsen, "and for this load profile, the temperature control solution has a massive advantage." Indeed, as Figure 5 shows, the temperature control set-up brings a 72% energy savings in this scenario.
The intelligent solution
The five factors affecting the operating cost of an industrial cooling application can be summarised as follows:
• Pump and motor efficiency
• Regulating mode
• Sizing of system
• Load profile
• Losses in the system
This is where Grundfos iSOLUTIONS (intelligent solutions) comes into play. The approach goes beyond the pump to optimise the entire pumping system. Grundfos works to identify customers' needs and help them avoid situations that will cost them in the long term – for example, by setting up the most intelligent and efficient pump regulation in an industrial cooling application.
"We train our sales people to explain the pros and cons of different solutions for their specific application," says Michael Laustsen. "Some customers may say, 'I don't care – I'm not paying extra for a frequency converter,' but we always try to clearly explain the costs and benefits of each option. If you are building a new system, the earlier you talk to us, the better."

Salazar schedules four regional public meetings on OCS during April
Four regional public meetings will be held during April to discuss US Outer Continental Shelf energy resources and their potential development impacts, US Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced on March 11.
Four regional public meetings will be held during April to discuss US Outer Continental Shelf energy resources and their potential development impacts, US Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced on March 11.
The meetings are scheduled for April 6 in Atlantic City, NJ; April 8 in New Orleans; April 14 in Anchorage, and April 16 in San Francisco. Salazar originally announced on Feb. 10 that they would be held as part of his strategy to develop a more comprehensive five-year OCS plan which would include renewable and alternative resources and more fully consider environmental and other consequences.
He also said at the time that the public comment period on the current proposed five-year OCS plan would be extended by six months and that a rulemaking on renewable energy on the OCS ordered under the 2005 Energy Policy Act would be expedited.
The meetings also will present findings on conventional and renewable OCS energy resources which the secretary ordered US Department of the Interior agencies to prepare by March 30. "The purpose of these meetings is to have an open, honest conversation with the American people to solicit the best possible information about an offshore energy plan," Salazar said on March 11.
Regional governors and elected federal officials, local governments, private citizens, interested organizations, entities, energy producers and advocacy groups are invited to attend and briefly comment or ask questions following a presentation of the offshore energy resources report, he said.
Persons unable to attend in person can submit written statements, comments or document either at the meeting or during the extended comment period, DOI officials said. Written comments can be submitted either online at www.mms.gov or by mail to Renee Orr, Leasing Division, US Minerals Management Service, MS 4010, 318 Elden Street, Herndon, Va. 20170-4817.

Chateau Remaury Azille Languedoc. Have wanted to sketch this beautiful romantic chateau for ages. Yesterday we went in and that's exactly what I did. This I might add is where one enters. The back door you might say. The front where you slowly make your way to, is another world. There before you is the lake with a magnificent view over their hundreds acres of vines. A most remarkable position. Met Damien Remaury the owner and 5th generation to be running their massive winery. He's so lovely and gave us a tour round the estate. Myself and a student will sketch from the front next week. So exciting. This is the real France. #erinhillsketching #erinhillsketchingnz #erinhillsketchingfrance #erinhillsketchingmelbourne #erinhillsketchingtours #châteauremaury ##chateaufloris ...
Day 3 of of Paris Workshops and what a huge range of subjects we covered. A last minute cafe sketch yesterday was a great way to sketch within a time frame. Today was about eye level perspective with those gorgeous classic French apartment buildings. Everyone began to see what was above and below eye level. Such great sketches. Plus food sketching. Best way to remember the shapes and colours on your plate. Fabulous everyone and Thankyou for being such 'give it a go' students. More next week in South of France.

How fast but at the same time how slow can a week on board a cruise ship pass. We are back in Nadi at the Westin Denarau till we all go our different ways. By now most of our 86 guests have enough sketching skills under their belts till I'm with them again next year in San Francisco. We've been to the best diving/sketching locations in Fiji and mixed it with the beautiful locals. It's been an incredible week and the crédit goes to Janet Heineken from St Francis Yacht Club, for giving the guests the opportunity to learn Travel Sketching, and her impeccable organizing skills. And to her husband Paul, the Commodore of the club. Captain Ian Davison was utterly charming while managing that very large ship into some fascinating diving sites/sketch sites, and the marvelous crew who never stopped smiling singing and dancing. For me working with Rusiate Lali, Fiji's top contemporary artist who was also onboard for the week was an enormous pleasure. His creations are an absolute delight and we'll remain in touch. Now on to the next adventure in Istanbul. Slide to see more #erinhillsketching #erinhillsketchingnz #erinhillsketchingfrance #erinhillsketchingmelbourne #usk #captaincookfiji ...

What's My Job?
Do teachers have a role when it comes to saving the planet? By Susan Allen-Gil
You can't say we haven't been warned about how human actions are irrevocably changing Earth's ecosystems and threatening the survival of millions of species--and humankind. Jared Diamond warned us in Collapse. Al Gore begged us to kick our fossil fuel habit for the sake of future generations in An Inconvenient Truth. Actor/activist Leonard DiCaprio cautioned us that time is running out in The 11th Hour. The World Wildlife Fund's global ecological footprinting analysis indicates we have been living on borrowed time; for the last five years, humans' collective footprint has been about 40 percent higher than the earth's ecological carrying capacity.
As the coordinator for both the Environmental Studies Program and the Partnerships for Sustainable Education between Ithaca College and the community, I think a lot about education's role in diverting or delaying the impending world collapse if we stay on our present resource-intensive path. In this regard, Ithaca College is doing quite well. Our reputation for embedding sustainability in our courses and operations extends across the United States and abroad. However, maximizing awareness among the IC community won't make a significant dent in the global Hummer of consumption in which we're riding.
For much of the global community, the conditions are not ripe for changing the world through education. To investigate this situation, I convened a workshop of international experts this summer in Ukraine, sponsored by NATO's Science for Peace Program, the Christian Johnson Endeavor Foundation, Sigma Xi, and Ithaca College.
My codirector, Olena Borysova from the Kharkiv Academy for Municipal Economy of Ukraine, and I brought together 36 highly respected participants from 14 countries, including Algeria, Armenia, Belarus, and Slovakia, for four intensive days of discussion. IC communications management major Sarah Brylinsky '08 and physics major Lia Stelljes '08 joined me; both wrote and presented papers about successful educational strategies from a student perspective and impressed the experts with their intellect and energy.
Global conditions that hinder the ability of education to save the world are as diverse as our workshop attendees. In some countries, political corruption prohibits educators from changing or even addressing environmental problems. Nations such as Ukraine are preoccupied with a postindustrial legacy of pollution followed by economic collapse. A Ukrainian biology professor said his first concern is surviving the effects of the Chernobyl nuclear explosion. "If we live, we will think about recycling," he told me.
When discussing the future of energy in Eastern Europe, another colleague said, "The concern of my parents' generation was freedom; the concern of mine is the economy; perhaps the concern of the next, or the one after that, will be renewable energy. But not now — we are happy just to have electricity."
Throughout many of the former Soviet States, the education system was developed to produce specialists prepared for narrowly defined occupations, with little or no room for electives. While some programs now require a course on the environment, faculty say students see no connection between the course and their degree in, say, transportation engineering.
This led me to think about what my job really is, as a college professor trained in environmental toxicology. I posed the question one evening to a mixed group of students, faculty, and policy makers, giving the audience three choices. Is my job to (1) ingrain scientific facts and equations into student brains; (2) make sure that graduates can get jobs; or (3) produce learned citizens who can make rational decisions and contribute to society?
While there was some disgruntlement about being forced to pick just one, the most popular answer was (3). This led to some consternation on my part about whether someone trained in the biochemical effects of pollutants on animals, or almost any other Ph.D. dissertation topic for that matter, is really the best person to teach students how to contribute meaningfully to society. But I will do my best.
Another group discussion involved developing an action plan for "saving the world" in which each person listed 10 actions they believe are most important, whether they could be implemented soon, and if education could play a role in advancing them. Influential factors ranged from severe environmental disasters (frequent Hurricane Katrinas) to religious leadership, celebrity influence, and humanitarian aid. The most commonly recommended actions were changing behavior, educating early, slowing population growth, offering specialized education (especially in renewable energy research and development), and improving environmental legislation and policy.
This led to the last question: What role can college educators play? While they cannot influence environmental disasters, they can influence every other critical component in saving the world. We raise awareness about the importance of behavioral change; teach the parents and teachers of tomorrow, and so influence early education; provide the intellectual force behind innovations; and train lawyers, policy makers, and voters.
If we are going to avert the looming ecological crisis, we need to make sure we are all in the game, and that we step up to the plate and swing hard.

The Federal Trade Commission, for the second time this year, last week released a report saying mobile apps aimed at children do a poor of providing privacy information to parents.
It stopped short of calling for new regulations. But based on the FTC's findings, it seems likely the agency and Congress will soon start clamping down on the mobile app industry. In the months between its latest report and the one it issued nearly a year ago, the FTC found "little progress toward giving parents the information they need to determine what data is being collected from their children, how it is being shared, or who will have access to it."
FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz said the study shows that "kids' apps siphon an alarming amount of information from mobile devices without disclosing this fact to parents." He called on companies to do a better job, and said the FTC plans to do a follow-up survey and "will expect to see improvement."
The latests FTC report, titled "Mobile Apps for Kid Disclosures Still Not Making the Grade," found that nearly 60 percent of the apps surveyed transmit information from a user's device "back to the app developer or, more commonly, to an advertising network, analytics company, or other third party." The commission also reported that "a relatively small number of third parties received information from a large number of apps," potentially allowing those third parties to "develop detailed profiles of the children based on their behavior in different apps."
The FTC also said that many apps that contain "interactive features" — including advertising, links to social media or the ability to make in-app purchases — fail to disclose those features to parents before download.
As regular readers of this column know, I'm not a big advocate of government regulation. Congress often overreacts to problems and I worry about regulations that would stifle innovation or deny children access to the thousands of great apps. Still, it seems obvious to me that if app developers don't quickly clean up their own act, government intervention is inevitable and perhaps necessary.
All of this is playing out as we wait for the FTC to issue revised guidelines to enforce the Children Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. The agency has indicated it will issue new rules to cover smartphone and social networking apps and plug-ins as well as third-party advertising networks — none of which were common when the law went into effect.
Despite its lofty goals of protecting children's privacy, the protection act has had some unintended consequences, including causing some children's websites to shut down because of the cost and hassle of obtaining verifiable parental permission before children under 13 could be allowed to provide any information to the sites.
The law is also the main reason Facebook and other social networks don't allow children under 13, which has led millions of preteens to lie about their age, often with the consent or even help of their parents. A study conducted last year by Harris Interactive found that 68 percent of the parents of kids who were under 13 when they signed up indicated that they helped their child create the account.
As big a deal as it may be for website operators to have to deal with the children's privacy act, regulations on mobile apps would be an even bigger deal because of the size and growth of the app market and the incredible number of app development companies, many of which are extremely small businesses.
According to the FTC, there were more than 700,000 apps available in the Apple (AAPL) App store as of September, a 40 percent increase since the end of last year. There were also 700,000 Google (GOOG) pay apps, representing an 80 percent increase over last year.
For app developers, especially those with apps popular with children, the choice is clear and the remedy is fairly easy. They need to provide parents with more information in the app store and on their websites, and they need to build greater privacy protections into their products, a practice known as "privacy by design."
Privacy, safety and security can no longer be an afterthought. Just as no car company would design a vehicle without breaks, seat belts and air bags, app developers — even ones with few resources — need to think about these issues and built in protections from day one.

Copyright Office Seeks To Make It More Difficult To Retain DMCA Safe Harbors
from the of-course-they-are deptAlmost missed this one, but Eric Goldman alerts us to the dozen comments filed with the US Copyright Office concerning its plan to force everyone to keep re-registering their official DMCA agent in order to keep retaining the DMCA's safe harbors. As we've discussed in the past, in order to make use of the DMCA's safe harbors, you have to register an official DMCA agent with the Copyright Office. In fact, we've suggested that anyone running a blog or forum site do exactly that. Many of the companies that were successfully sued by Righthaven (before it was discovered Righthaven didn't really have the copyrights it needed) were caught because they failed to register a DMCA agent. While I think that such sites could make a reasonable argument in court that they still were not liable, it's a lot more difficult (and costly) to do so.
However, for reasons that escape me, the Copyright Office is thinking of making it much easier for companies to lose their safe harbor protections by requiring them to regularly re-register with the Copyright Office, or have their agent tossed out. This is part of a larger -- and useful -- effort to make the process of registering electronic, rather than the paper one it is today. That's a good thing. But dumping the database and requiring periodic re-registering is fraught with problems. The Copyright Office appears to defend this process on two grounds: first that some companies have gone out of business, and yet their DMCA agent listings live on and second, that copyright holders may want to know if a service provider is in compliance on the date of infringement.
However, as the excellent CCIA response to the request for comment notes, neither reason makes much sense. If a company is out of business, it's not doing anyone any harm to keep their names in the list:
These outdated entries impose little cost on prospective rightsholders using the database, however, since few rightsholders will ever want to send takedown notices to a service provider that no longer exists. This scenario does not justify any substantial compliance costs on the industry, startups, or members of the public who would want to claim safe harbor protections.The second reason is equally mystifying:
However, existing [law] already requires registrations of agents to be dated, such that Copyright Office records can already enable rightsholders to ascertain whether a service provider was in compliance on a particular data. This proposed feature therefore does not provide sufficient value to justify new regulatory obligations.The CCIA piece also notes that this retroactive yanking of safe harbors almost certainly goes against the law, as the Copyright Office has no mandate under the safe harbors of the DMCA to remove such safe harbors just because it doesn't like the fact that there are a few "dead" entries in the database. The biggest issue, of course, is that this imposes significant compliance costs on pretty much anyone running a website that wishes to avail themselves of the DMCA's safe harbors. Even worse, simply forgetting to re-register your DMCA agent when the time comes could cause you to lose the protections entirely. That seems ridiculous.
Others who came out against this insanity include Public Knowledge (pdf), EFF, with Jason Schultz & Eric Goldman (pdf) and Microsoft (pdf). There's also a short and sweet filing from Matthew Neco (the only individual who filed a comment by himself), which notes that it would be an "unreasonable burden" to have to keep re-filing. It notes that a simple calendaring mistake might lead to the loss of safe harbor protections which would be "draconian" for such a simple mistake.
Amazingly, the MPAA actually appears to kinda/sorta agree with those above (pdf) in saying that "resubmitting designations through the online form may be costly and burdensome for those companies with a large number of designations if separate manual entry of new forms for every existing designation is required." It later warns that this "risks being a trap for the unwary." Of course, rather than totally coming out against the idea, the MPAA says that the Copyright Office should "make clear in the designation process that failure to keep the records current (in the Copyright Office database and on the service providers' own websites) is a basis for losing DMCA safe-harbor protection." Yes, because putting a single sentence on the website will keep it from being a trap for the unwary. Huh?
On the other side of the coin entirely is the RIAA who enthusiastically supports anything that might weaken the DMCA's safe harbors. It goes so far into the ridiculous as to call such periodic re-registrations as "essential," apparently ignoring all of the legal points raised by the other filings. Somewhat surprisingly, both Verizon and the Internet Commerce Coalition don't seem to think it's that big of a deal to have to re-register every couple of years, and each provides minor suggestions for making the process simpler.
Others weighing in on the request for comment seem to focus on other issues. Google has a short comment (pdf) about why it doesn't make sense to require service providers to file separately for every subdomain, and separately argues that takedown notices should be written, rather than allowing phone calls. A bunch of organizations representing rural and small telecom companies focus (pdf) on making sure third parties can maintain and update the agent info.
Then... there's the filing of MiMTiD (pdf). If you don't recall, we've written about the anti-piracy outfit MiMTiD a few times in the past, and it always has to do with some wacky, totally detached from reality, argument the company has -- such as claiming that it's infringing to pass on DMCA takedown notices to ChillingEffects.org, or that the music industry has been destroyed, because Congress preferred to protect Farmville rather than record labels. Not surprisingly, MiMTiD's filing is more of the same. Much of it simply complains about Google:
From what we understand, Google takes it upon itself to conduct a manual investigation of each infringing link identified and ultimately decides, using unpublished criteria, whether or not Google agrees with the copyright owner that the link is indeed an infringement of the relevant copyright owner�s rights. As noted above, all notices sent by MiMTiD on behalf of copyright owners are DMCA compliant, so they satisfy the extensive, carefully-crafted criteria that Congress established for a notice to be valid.I'm not sure what that has to do with anything in the RFC from the Copyright Office. It also seems to suggest a misunderstanding of the DMCA. That is, it seems to suggest that if you send a DMCA compliant takedown, the service provider must remove the content. But that's not true at all. They only have to do that if they want to retain safe harbors. But if they believe the notice is bunk, and there's nothing to fear from a lawsuit, they don't have to remove the material at all.
The DMCA also provides other built-in safeguards and checks and balances, such as a counter-notice process for a party to object to the removal of its content and penalties against copyright owners that abuse the notice process. Nonetheless, Google inserts itself as an extra-statutory, self-appointed arbiter of the validity of DMCA-compliant notices that Congress has already determined as valid under the statute. If Google does not unilaterally agree that the links submitted in a take down notices are infringing, under whatever standard it chooses to use, Google informs the copyright owner or its agent as follows: "In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have completed processing your infringement complaint. ... At this time, Google has decided not to take action on these URLs: [list of ignored links]".
When MiMTiD finally gets around to the RFC, it still doesn't appear to understand what it's talking about. It seems to not realize that the DMCA already requires service providers to designate an agent, and instead suggests what a great idea it would be to have that requirement (seriously):
Therefore, we support the proposal to require "Designation of Agent To Receive Notification of Claimed Infringement", which we believe will enable the DMCA to function as contemplated by Congress by eliminating confusion and inefficiencies, enabling a party to object to the removal of the content and the alleged infringing links from search, enabling these websites to pursue penalties against copyright owners that abuse the notice process and requiring websites seeking to receive the benefits of section 512 to be required to file designation of an agent.Yeah. Perhaps the reason Google rejects some of your takedowns is because you don't understand the DMCA... Just saying...

Portal Vein Thrombosis, In Depth
Portal vein thrombosis is being recognized with increased frequency in small animals due to greater awareness of hypercoagulable states and greater use of abdominal ultrasound in animals with gastrointestinal signs. The veins of the hepatic portal system drain the digestive organs, spleen and pancreas and deliver blood to the liver via the hepatic portal vein. The portal vein is responsible for delivering close to 75 percent of the hepatic blood supply, the remaining being provided by hepatic arteries. Obstruction of the portal vein occurs most commonly secondary to thrombus formation, or due to neoplastic infiltration and secondary thrombus formation.
A predisposing cause for hypercoagulability is identified Continue reading
