Avoid collegiate chaos; organize before school starts
Milwaukee, WI (ContentDesk) July 6, 2004 -- While summer has barely warmed up in some areas of the country, college-bound students are looking toward the fall.
Lesson One in preparing to head to campus should be to get organized now, for the year, says nationally-respected professional organizer, Barb Friedman.???? "Physical clutter affects you physically and mentally so it's to a student's advantage to get things in order and have specific places for things like clothes, school and laundry supplies before classes begin," said Friedman, owner of Organize IT, who has assisted organizationally challenged people throughout the United States and has appeared on Dr. Phil as an anti-mess maven.???? In an effort to provide peace of mind for students and their parents who frantically toss belongings into boxes before they depart for State U, Friedman advises an initial organization strategy.
???? "Get out pads and paper -- or electronic organizers -- and begin making ?needs lists' as soon as you plan the date you'll leave for school," Friedman said.
"It will help you to see what you have on-hand and what needs to be purchased ? supplies and storage.
There's no need to clutter a dorm or apartment with boxes of laundry detergent when there are only a few feet to spare."???? Friedman provides the following tips to continue the school year with a neat slate:1)????Create to-do lists for school activities, living necessities, expenses.2) Break down list into categories:?
Order, maintain telephone, cable, electric services.??????????? ?
Purchase school supplies.?
Plan, purchase room decorations.????
Stock up on groceries.???????
Wash all clothes, towels and sheets and pack them clean.
Purchase as needed.3) Schedule each item on a calendar -- paper or electronic organizer
(your preferred method).
Block off the date and time.4)
Plan it.
Schedule it.
Do it!5) Check off each task as it's completed."Take time to reward yourself for each accomplishment," Friedman said.
"When you ease into the school year knowing that you're prepared beyond the classroom, you'll enjoy a clear head for studies having already learned a lesson for a lifetime."????????????????????????????????????????????.

Parallel Path Electromagnetic Motors -- A Revolution in Motion?
OSEN (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) February 21, 2006 -- Joe Flynn from Flynn Research is working on a new technology called "Parallel Path" with Boeing Phantom Works. The technology claims to be able to increase magnet motor efficiency substantially, even over the 100% barrier. They have received a US Patent. At Flynn Research, Parallel Path electromagnetism is explained as a method of controlling and directing magnetic flux within the core of a motor to provide an exponentially greater motive force than conventional motors. From their technical brief about the technology, Parallel Path could very well usher in a new age of powerful and highly-efficient electric motors.The venerable electric motor operates on well-understood principles.
A stator contains a coil that when energized with alternating current, generates a magnetic force which in turn acts on a rotor to produce motive force. Electric motors can turn the blades of...

View from the barber's chair
IF you want to get your hair cut in Villefranche du Perigord, a village in the heart of France, you have two choices. On one side of the street is a hairdressers, all chrome and shiny mirrors, a little further down is a barbers of the cutthroat razor kind. But it's no Sweeny Todd style shop more a great place to enjoy a heavy dose of French life. I'd already prepared myself for the visit, learning the French word for short, for a little shorter please and leave the sideburns as they are. Well maybe not the last one.
I was also hoping that there would be a couple of pictures on the wall, like all good barbers, that I could at least point to. But I then had a panic attack as I thought they all might be pictures from the 70's and I'd have to point to something that the Hair Bear Bunch would be proud of. As I walked into the shop there was an old chap sat in the chair with the barber tending to his hair and chatting away. They both turned towards me and said ?bonjour'. I returned...

Industrial Ac Motors Protected From Shaft Current: New Aegis SGR Shaft Grounding Brush Boosts Motor Reliability
MECHANIC FALLS, ME (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) March 7, 2006 The new AEGIS SGR" Conductive MicroFiber" Shaft Grounding Brush from Electro Static Technology boosts reliability of AC motors controlled by variable frequency drives (VFD) in any manufacturing application.
The patent pending AEGIS SGR protects motors from catastrophic failure caused by shaft current in motor bearings.
AEGIS SGR channels potentially damaging shaft currents away from the motor bearings to ground.
Detailed product information and catalog may be downloaded at www.est-aegis.com.VFDs are increasingly used in industrial applications to control AC motors because of the tremendous energy savings and lower operating costs gained by the use of electronic drives for process control, pumps, air handling, rollers, spindles, extrusion machines, winders and many more applications.

Volkswagen Touran Hymotion: Fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicle Plus Top Rate VW Replacement Parts
Automakers know that rising oil prices and tougher environmental rules will increase the public's interest in vehicles that use less fuel with reduced tail pipe emissions.Hybrids increase fuel efficiency by capturing the energy normally lost to friction braking and storing it in a battery for later use when driving power is again required. Unlike internal combustion engine hybrids, Volkswagen's hydrogen fuel cell hybrid emits only water.The VW Touran Hymotion has high-torque electric motor that draws its power from a fuel cell and is absolutely emission free. The standard version, driven by petrol and diesel engines, which are as agile as they are economical, is by far the most successful van available in Germany. In the Touran HyMotion, an 80 kW electric motor provides vehement propulsion.The core element of this fuel cell is an extremely thin plastic film (membrane). This spatially separates the reagents, hydrogen and oxygen.
The hydrogen is broken down into positively and negatively...

Spam Control - The Internet Without It?
Every single day 30,000,000 emails are sent around the world. 50% of those emails are spam. Blue chip companies and even Governments are taking drastic measures in spam control. The most recent evidence of this is the Canspam Act which was passed by the US Senate early in 2004.If you look at what most people used the Internet for you'll find the vast majority of online activity is sending and receiving email. Email has become the lifeblood of modern society.
An interesting social experiment would be to see what happens to a group of young professional people who suddenly have all means of electronic communication taken away from them. Email has become as much a part of our lives as the electric lightbulb, air transport and mobile phones.What happens if we don't implement spam control globally? What would happen if all the mail server spam filters and regulations controlling spam were suddenly abolishesd? Chaos online! The online world would grind to a screeching halt as email...
