...frequency that used was 200 MHz which is right between the high and low pass filter allowing a the signal to go deeper. The time interval for collecting this data was 400 ns with 20 traces per meter. In this amount of time and traces per meter, 12 transecs were collected. The AGC was used to amplify the GPR lines getting better data. The data from the GPR was then brought back to the lab and the lines and sections were examined to figure out the GPR facies. The equipment used for coring was an auger core....

It is very helpful to understand potato starch machine. The machine picture will be added for unite process unite. All will more intuitive. Fully automated POTATO STARCH PRODUCTION LINE will go through and monitor all production stages, including even transportation and bagging. Potato convey into the inverse spiral de-stoner by water to undertake cleaning and de-stoning. De-stoner is divided into two sections, the de-sanding drum and the cylindrical screen; the screen opens screen holes on the technique requirements. Their main equipments will have as components drum washers, destoners, raspers, desanding units, dewatering systems, vacuum filters and hydrocyclone units, driers, packaging machines and control interfaces. When the de-stoner is working, the sand less than screen hole diameter, leaks to the sieve cylinder outside from screen holes, goes forward upstream under the action of inversion spiral belt of the sieve cylinder outside wall, falls into the sand catcher in front of the de-stoner, then the sand is discharged to a stone and impurities discharge outlet through a discharging sand plate by a sand dump drum. We can use different type of raw material such as flour of potato starch, more and many more. Our experts have specifically designed potato starch production line in compliance with the prevailing...

...Managers and HR Professionals at Sands Corporation: Friends or Foes? Sands Corporation is a medium-sized company located in the Midwest. It manufactures specialized computer equipment used in cars, serving as a subcontractor to several automobile manufacturers as well as to the military. Federal contracts are an important part of Sands’ total sales. In 1965 the firm had 130 employees. At that time, the personnel department had a full-time director (who was a high school graduate) and a part-time clerk. The department was responsible for maintaining files, placing recruitment ads in the newspaper at management’s request, processing employment applications and payroll, answering phones, and handling other routine administrative tasks. Managers and supervisors were responsible for most personnel matters, including whom to hire, whom to promote, whom to fire, and whom to train. Today Sands employs 700 people. Personnel, now called the human resources department, has a full-time director with a master’s degree in industrial relations, three specialists (with appropriate college degrees and certifications: one in compensation, one in staffing, and one in training and development), and four personnel assistants. Sands’ top management believes that a strong HR department with a highly qualified staff can do a better job of handling most personnel matters than line supervisors can. It is also convinced that a good HR department can keep line managers from inadvertently creating...

...hallucination, the first one 11 lines, and the 2nd 13 lines. In the first stanza, the Poe wastes no time thrusting the reader immediately into his dream. As if sleepwalking, the reader is being kissed. This powerful technique places the reader as the subject of a romantic fiction. The universal condition of love, loss, and sorrow of separation are introduced in a mere 2 lines. As in many of Poe’s poems, this a tone poem, with the message reinforced by a plaintive repetitive melody. The ending of the first 3 lines: brow, now, avow, all sound in a soft minor key, setting a rhythm and pattern that strengthens the poem by setting the stage of meter and rhyming inevitability. The sounds are familiar and the reader knows they will repeat. The inevitability that is set up by the rhyming sequence is also a key theme of the poem. Poe tries to find some comfort in the pain of separation. He asks the reader, if hope is abandoned, does it even matter if life is only a dream? Is what we experience in his dream or in life insignificant? The second stanza takes the reader from the universal human experience of loss, to the microscopic examination of the smallest particles of nature. Amidst the roar of the ocean, Poe grasps at sand, which slips between his fingers. He describes the sand that is washed away by waves of the ocean, only to return again in an endless cycle. By analogy, he compares the loss of his beloved to the cycle of nature. Each grain of sand is beautiful, golden...

...brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow -- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream. I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand -- How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep, While I weep -- while I weep! O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave? Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream? The poem is 24 lines, divided into two stanzas. The poem questions the way one can distinguish between reality and fantasy, asking, "Is all that we see or seem but a dream within a dream?" ( wiki) Although the two stanzas are not identical in length, their similar use of an iambic rhythm and of couplets and triplets in their end rhyme scheme creates a pattern that matches the parallel of their ideas. In particular, the refrain (repeated) lines "All that we see or seem/Is but a dream within a dream" unite the passages in the poem's conclusion of futility and regret at the movement of time. Poe draws attention to "all that we see or seem" with alliteration, and we can view this phrase as the combination of two aspects of reality, where "all that we see" is the external and "all that we seem" is the internal element. By asserting that...

...Sample Case Studies Client Name: The Challenge: HP was implementing a CISCO enterprise call centre for a new GSM operator in the Middle East region. The call centre will be responsible for handling the requests of call customers concerning everything from service activation, to bill enquiry, to asking about new offers. The client required that the Call Center integrate with ORACLE CRM solution that held all the customer information and billing. HP commissioned SAND to do the integration part between CISCO and Oracle. The Approach: When SAND started on the project, we first explored our implementation options based on the technologies being used, and the architecture of the systems that we should integrate. After a the initial investigation and with the help of HP's person in charge of the project we found out that the version of CISCO used an ICM (Intelligent Contact Management) which has only one TCP/IP protocol interface (GED 145) for sending requests and receiving responses for the things that needed implementation. The ICM protocol was analyzed and the needed functions/messages were identified. On the Oracle side, we were supposed to either make direct database operations to retrieve the needed information, or to work with the Oracle implementation team to build some stored procedures for our use. The Solution: After several prototypes were developed to test the best approach for situation, we decided to implement a standalone middle wear between CISCO and Oracle instead...

...Aug. 2011 .How To Build a Sand Castle For young and old alike, a trip to the beach means relaxation, adventure, and a temporary escape from the worries and responsibilities of ordinary life. Whether swimming or surfing, playing volleyball or snoozing in the sand, a visit to the beach means fun. Making sand castles is a project for beachgoers of all ages. Some castles are very elaborate while others are plain. “Why spend money on clay when you can use beach sand for free?” (How to Build a Sand Castle) Move this quote into a supporting paragraph. Quotes cannot be inserted in the introductory – or concluding – paragraphs. Remember your thesis statement must be in your own words, too. Is this meant to be your thesis? Be sure to create a sentence in your own words which encompasses the WHOLE main idea/purpose of your paper. The only equipment needed in the process of creating a sand castle is a twelve inch deep bucket, a small plastic shovel, carving tools, and an abundance of moist sand. If carving tools are unavailable, a plastic kitchen knife will work, however a pastry knife with a squared off end is preferred. Begin using the plastic shovel, by digging up a large amount of sand (enough to fill at least six buckets) and arranging it in a pile near your chosen work site. “Choose a square site that is close to the water, but not so close that waves will destroy the castle as the tide comes up.” (Sand Castle Tips & Tricks) Then, scoop the wet sand into your pail patting it down...

...glass is. He then goes into stating that when sand is melted into a liquid and then cools down, it forms a crystal, being glass. This leads into a discussion that talks about a rare sand in this desert that was mostly quartz, making the most beautiful glass crystal. Towards the middle of the chapter, Miodownik informs the readers of the glass that was created by the Romans. Nothing was necessarily unclear from the chapter but there is something confusing to me that is related to the chapter in a way. I was wondering how color was added to make stained glass, precisely...

...and roughly 2 per cent of employment. When it comes to investment and trade flows, though, it dominates. Given that the loonie’s fortunes will continue to be tied to oil for years to come, what might that future hold? Canada certainly has the potential to become an even bigger player in the global oil market than it is now. The oil sands are the third-largest oil reserves in the world. The Harper government, meanwhile, has made no secret that it will do everything it can to ensure environmental and other concerns won’t stand in the way of the oil industry’s plans to more than double bitumen output from northern Alberta to five million barrels a day over the next two decades. But is that best-case scenario for the oil industry realistic? Prime Minister Harper may think so. He clearly still has visions of Canada becoming an energy superpower. Financial markets have more doubts. The shine has come off the oil sands, as more investors have started to question whether oil sands development is really a sure thing, particularly at the speed projected by bullish petro-boosters. Instead, there’s an increasing likelihood that much of Canada’s impressive oil sands reserves will never be produced. The most immediate issue is geography. Canada’s landlocked oil reserves are...
