Reactor A. Machac [1], R. Henda [2], and B. Nilsson [2] [1]
School of Engineering, Laurentian University, Sudbury, ON,
Canada [2] Lund University, Sweden Heat and mass transport
phenomena in a tubular catalytic bed reactor are numerically
investigated. A two-dimensional pseudo-heterogeneous model,
accounting for transport in the solid and fluid phases, with
axial and radial dispersions, is used to describe the reactor.
The calculation results show the development of a hot spot in
the reactor. The effects of inlet process conditions are
investigated and their impact on the behavior of the reactor is
analyzed. |

the Enterprise Manager in the [dtproperties] table - they are
backed-up with the rest of your data, but they are not easy to
transfer between databases or add to source control (like Visual

get it into a 'text' format for source control), you need to
extract the binary data from [dtproperties] and get it into a

received international acclaim in various film festivals. The
film is up for a theatrical release in India however it will

Great Moments in Olympic Coverage - the Decathlon Rate: 2 Flag

with Bryan Clay being about to win the decathlon, with teaser
shots of his efforts in various events. I have a residual
affection for the decathlon, (despite?) having watched Daley
Thompson ad nauseam on the BBC during the 1984 Olympics. (Our
house was about 70 miles from the Coliseum, but plainly the
Olympics was the time to head back to the auld country and see
the family.) Actual coverage - Bryan Clay taking a gentle 1500
meter run because he was so far ahead he could only lose if it
transpired that he was in fact responsible for the US' woes in
relay qualification. And occasional shots of his wife. That's
what I get for being so stupid as to rely on the prime-time crew
to bring me something other than divers and weeping teenagers,

judge declared a mistrial Wednesday in the case of a radical
environmentalist who was charged with teaching others how to
make Molotov cocktails. Rod Coronado gave his demonstration
only a few hours after a $50 million arson fire in August 2003
destroyed an unfinished condo project nearby in an apparent
attack by environmental terrorists. Jurors deliberated two days
before sending a note to U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Miller
indicating they were deadlocked. The judge quickly declared a
mistrial after the jury foreman said the panel was unlikely to
reach a unanimous decision, even with additional time.
Coronado, 41, was charged in February 2006 with a single count
of distributing information on explosives, destructive devices
and weapons of mass destruction with the intent for his
listeners to commit illegal acts of violence. full story:

This was a real waste of money in a poverty-stricken state — a

Since Democrats are known to vote straight ticket more than
Republicans, our governor had the secretary of state remove
straight-party voting. Because of that, the voting lines were
significantly longer and it could have cost some Republican
votes too. I was dismayed when voting early that a room filled
with other voters and poll workers could plainly see my marked

raise the exact point—what effect does sweat and the sun have on
a helmet? And the answer is this: Quite a bit. Sweat and the
salts it releases are acidic and corrosive, even eating away at
plastic. And the sun is simply brutal on plastics, which is why
any pack you wear for a few summers will start to fade (and the
fabric greatly weaken). So what to do? You can take a few steps
to prolong the life of a helmet. Every other week or so, dunk it
in a bucket of cool water and swish it around some. That will
help clean out dried sweat. And of course, try to store it out
of the sun, someplace dry and cool. Otherwise, I really

and Hunting Virginia's General Assembly is considering a bill
that would make it illegal for hunters to have more than trace
amounts of alcohol in their system. Some gun owners say the
bill is unconstitutional. It's already illegal in Virginia to
“hunt with firearms'' when under the influence of alcohol or
drugs. But the Senate bill further clarifies the state code so
that a hunter with a blood alcohol content of .02 would be
guilty of a misdemeanor. The state's drunken driving standard
is .08. A House committee will hear the legislation this week.

Posted: Sunday, January 31, 1999 In observing the political
arena as I have for the past few years, it's been quite clear
that there are a number of folks who simply hate Bill Clinton.
Certainly there are legitimate complaints and concerns about
Clinton, but a visceral hatred for the man has been around long
before anyone ever heard the name "Monica Lewinsky." It's just
that Clinton-haters now have a flag to wave, with the words
"Monica" and "impeachment" embroidered on it, seemingly to
validate the hate they have harbored all along. While political
partisanship certainly plays a big role in the Republican
efforts to remove Clinton from office, I think the absolutely
venomous hate might be better explained by the psychological
phenomenon of projection. Psychological projection can be
described as the attribution of one's own attitudes, feelings or
desires to someone or something as a naive or unconscious

Asked Questions How do I know if my bra is fitting correctly?
The frame and sides should lie smoothly without cutting into the
flesh. The cups should also fit smoothly without wrinkling. If
that happens, try a smaller cup size. If the cups are cutting
into the breast tissue, opt for a larger cup size. The breasts
should fill the cups without overflowing. How do I put my bra
on? First, slip straps over the shoulders. Then lean forward to
fill the cups fully. Fasten the hook on the middle clasp then
stand up and adjust the straps. Why is there a relationship
with a proper-fitting bra and overall health? A poor-fitting
bra results in bad posture and can cause back problems and
shoulder and neck pain. A poorly fitted under wire bra, for
instance, can harm the breast tissue itself. Why are so many

Economic Cycle Research Institute (ECRI) with Geoffrey H. Moore,

Currency Doubleday. Four of the past six recessions started
during a quarter when GDP was growing, as did 72% of all
recessions in the past 94 years . How can that be? The answer
is that expansions end -- and recessions begin -- at the peak of
the business cycle, after which the economy begins to contract.
For instance, the initial quarter of the Great Recession of
2007-09 showed 1.7% GDP growth, while the severe 1973-75 and

oaks such as Quercus ilex (Holm oak) or Quercus alnifolia Poech.
The eggs are laid on the upper-side of a leaf, often near a

mine, almost filled with black frass - debris made up of
droppings. Numerous larvae and mines can be found on a single
leaf. Larvae have been found from November to April but mainly
during January or February. Pupation takes place outside the
leaf in a small, ovoid, brown cocoon, either between leaves or
in leaf-litter on the ground. Adults occur from late April to
end of June (Nieukerken, 1985). However, moth-trapping at 2
additional sites in London has produced specimens on dates
between 4 July and 1 August. The moth’s flight period in
Britain is April to August, possibly in 2 overlapping
generations. Adults have a wingspan of between 4.4 and 5.8mm.

two channels of virtual instruments you drive via the MIDI input

another; if they were to defer death, they had no choice but to
count on their comrades to see them through. Like its
forebearers, the N-Gage version of Call of Duty concerns itself
with the minutiae of warfare, focusing the platform's limited
horsepower on creating atmosphere and insuring authenticity.
Unfortunately, this first-person shooter's erratic performance
and occasionally buggy gameplay spoil some of the effect. It

Confused about processor speed. I am going to buy a new
computer and at the moment I have my eyes on two. One of
them has the following processor: AMD DUAL CORE X2 3600 , I
googled it and apparently the processor speed is 1.9GHz The
other one has a INTEL CORE 2 DUAL e6320 and google says it is
1.86HGz. My problem is that I don't think their clock speed
could be so low specially the INTEL. My theory is that in fact
if I buy INTEL CORE2DUAL E6320 I will get 2 processors with the
speed of 1.86 - hence the name DUAL - which means that I will

haven’t been to a hot spring before, which was why when I found
out that there’s a hot spring unknown yet to many people in the
northern part of Cebu, I immediately asked Randy if we could go
there. He agreed but we hadn’t decided on a date then. When the
day came for us to visit this place, everything was all worth
it. It all started when I purchased an Ensogo voucher for a
2-days and 1-night stay at Huna Huna Beach Resort in Catmon,
Cebu last October 2011. I almost forgot about it but came
January 2012, I stumbled upon the printed voucher when I was
trying to clean up the papers inserted in my notebook. Realizing
that the voucher will expire by the end of February, I then
searched for wonderful places that we can go to in Catmon. From
Wikipedia, Catmon is a 5th class municipality in the northern
part of Cebu, about 57 km from Cebu City. It is bounded on the
north by the town of Sogod, on the south by the town of Carmen,
on the west by the town o |
1.117148 | 2.340672 | 40 | Thursday, April 5, 2012 I have been going back and forth and
back and forth and I think it is just finally time I pull the
plug on this operation. I'm not sure what direction I want to
go with it and I feel like it is just sitting out here waiting
for me to do something with it and it is more of a burden than a
pleasure at this point. So I will keep it up for several more
days so you can print anything you might want off of it and then
it will be done. I'm just not sure what exactly I am doing it
for anymore. I am thankful for those of you have read it and
have followed me but I am lacking in inspiration as of late and
I just feel like it is one more thing I have to do. Could be
pregnancy hormones or something else - who knows but it is how
I feel. Thank you, 1. Hi Gretchen, I will be printing,
printing... I'm also preggers with number 4 and it's
exhausting. I only have one busy three year old at home with me.
Take care! 2. Aw...I'll miss it. Can you just leave it up

Members of the Securities and Exchange Commission: Undisclosed
political spending by corporations is undermining the interests
and security of United States citizens. A hundred and fifty
years before the SEC came into being, the United States chose to
severely limit the power of corporations, because the founding
fathers experienced first hand the corruption within corporate
power in Britain. Gradually corporations took hold in the United
States, no longer being temporary entities associated with a
single project. Corporations took on a life of their own, and in
so doing began again to threaten the financial security of
individuals. The SEC was set up to restore some protections for
the citizens of the United States - and by citizens I mean flesh
and blood human beings. I strongly support the SEC issuing a
rule now that would require publicly traded corporations to
publicly disclose all their spending on political activities.
Thank you for co |

-3.437678 | 3.874362 | 89 | Vision changes throughout the day? My vision seems to change
easily when I transition from reading to looking up and around
me. And there are times when I'm driving and I notice the exit
signs are a bit blurred; other times, they're crisp and clear.
Does anyone else have trouble with their vision changing
throughout the day? I know the eye is made up of mostly
collagen, so I'm assuming this is a normal part of EDS. Yes?
Report post 25 replies. Join the discussion I have VEDS and I
have noticed vision changes for years, although my eye exams are
always fine. Slight changes, like you said looking up from
reading, looking away from my computer etc. They blur, then
clear up, sometimes I can see signs at quite a distance and
other times I can barely see the plates on the car in front of
me. I have never been given a reason for it, other then
disassociation disorder, but I have been labelled with several
mental disorders over the past 20 yrs so I don't know what it is
VEDS or not. Report post Yes I have this! |
0.658811 | -0.63152 | -1 | May 28, 2012 Mauritania: Human Rights Activists Accuse Islamic
Jurisdiction of Legitimizing Slavery By Anna Mahjar-Barducci
Recently, the issue of slavery has taken center stage in
Mauritania. In the beginning of May, a Mauritanian human rights
organization decided to reopen the debate by denouncing the
continued existence of slaves in the country. To get people's
attention, this organization burned books of the Islamic Maliki
school of jurisprudence, prevailing in Mauritania, claiming that
they provide a religious justification for continuing slavery.
The act of burning books took place at the end of a special
prayer for slaves, which emphasized their right to lead Muslims
in prayer. However, the burning of the books sparked fury among
the public. Demonstrations erupted throughout the country in
condemnation of what was perceived as an affront to Islam. As a
consequence, the anti-slavery movement apologized to the
Mauritanians for the burning of the Maliki books and explained
that this was a symboli |
-0.503361 | 7.226768 | 8 | brick cell phone Just as HD-DVD lost its format war to Blu-ray,
WiMax is losing the 4G wireless format war to a rival technology
called LTE. And LTE just scored another victory, as Clearwire
announced it will begin a LTE trial this fall in Phoenix. Until
now, Clearwire -- whose backers include Sprint Nextel, Intel,
Comcast, and Google -- was the lone major U.S. wireless carrier
to put its weight behind WiMax, mostly because when Sprint's 4G
plans were first announced in 2006, WiMax was all that existed.
Since then, the other major U.S. wireless companies -- AT&T,
Verizon, T-Mobile, etc. -- have all put their weight behind LTE,
snubbing WiMax. So it makes a lot of sense of Clearwire to
switch over to LTE if it's technically possible. It's becoming
the worldwide standard, and it'll always be easier to get the
best and latest devices for LTE, and not for WiMax. The WiMax
technology may still be useful for enterprise use, or for
carriers themselves to use to send wireless data from point to
point. But LTE |
0.027148 | 9.346699 | 16 | Take the 2-minute tour × I notice that Mail.app, iTunes and
even Finder have a similar template, with a various columns, but
often, a left Column with "folders" and "files". Is this a sort
of standard template, that I can use so as to not reinvent the
wheel? share|improve this question add comment 2 Answers up
vote 1 down vote accepted No, Apple does not provide a control
that acts like a finder window, etc., although it is a common
request and you might want to file a bug report at
http://bugreport.apple.com making this request...it would help
push them along to provide such a standard control. However,
there are several controls that implement various aspects that
you may want to take a look at like NSTableView, NSOutlineView,
NSCollectionView & IKImageBrowser. Although, to get everything
you want, you may have to reinvent the wheel. I have generally
found these control hard to customize if they do not provide
everything you need out-of-the-box...but they do provide a lot
out-of-the-box. share|impr |
