...Electro (short for either electro-funk or electro-boogie) is a genre of electronic dance music which first became apparent in the early 1980’s. It was directly influenced by the use of TR-808 Drum Machines, Moog Keytar synthesizers and funk sampling. The basic conventions of an Electro song would include heavy electronic sounding deprived of vocals in general, although if present, they are delivered in a deadpan manner, often through an electronic distortion such as vocoding and the use of a drum machine. This would be one of the main differences between electro and genres which were around in the late 1970’s such as Disco and boogie. A main influence of the growth of Electro was the creation of MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) which was created in 1982. MIDI is an industry standard protocol enabling electronic musical instruments, such as synthesizers and drum machines, computers and other electronic equipment (MIDI controllers, sound cards, samplers) to communicate and synchronize with one-another. Unlike previous analog devices, MIDI does not transmit an audio signal, it instead sends an event messages about pitch and intensity, control signals for parameters such as volume, vibrato and panning, cues, and clock signals to set the tempo, allowing the different musical features to build upon one another, creating more complex music and also develops the integration of different devices. The creation of MIDI led to sub genres such as Synth Pop to grow, by which synthesizers...

...unusable due to poor air quality. In selective problem areas, the usual approach to the treatment of water intrusion problems is to 'trench and drain', in other words, to excavate and expose the wall area and the base of the foundation, to replace waterproofing on the wall surface, and to install a drain tile system around the building or affected area. Other areas, such as floors, are untreatable using conventional methods. Electro-osmotic pulse (EOP) technology offers an alternative solution that can mitigate some water-related problems from the interior of affected areas without the cost of excavation. Further, by lessening water seepage through concrete walls and floors, indoor humidity is reduced, thereby alleviating corrosion damage to mechanical equipment, lessening mould problems, and enhancing indoor air quality. 1.2 Electro-Osmotic Flow If ions of one sign are preferentially adsorbed at a solid solution interface, a net charge or electric potential difference develops across the interface. This phenomenon is referred to as electro osmosis. It was found that when a potential difference is applied to electrodes immersed into an electrolyte solution on opposite sides of a porous plug or fine capillary tube, a flow of the solution results. Similarly when a solution is forced through such a barrier by hydrostatic pressure, a potential difference develops between the solution on one side...

...While stationed at a Navy special warfare command I was in charge of the boat shop. In the boat shop we conducted preventive maintenance and any type of repairs that where mission essential. My co-worker had just finished rebuilding an outboard engine that had multiple problems, it took use about two week to rebuild the engine at return it to its running glory. My shop set out for the operational test of this boat, as always I gave a detailed brief to my crew. I instructed my lead mechanic Kevin to come with me on the safety boat and gave Steve the helm on the test boat. Prior to us placing the boats into the water I instructed Steve to be gentle with the boat; it had a few hours of break-in or run-in time that needed to be completed prior to opening it wide and completing the operational test. I informed Steve that he needs to keep an eye on the oil pressure and the RPM gauge to insure that the engine was running as designed. Steve was a seasoned Navy engineman but not a skilled mechanic, I stressed the importance to him and the only words out of his mouth was “don’t worry I got this.” We started out into the water and everything was working as designed, I kept in contact with Steve via a hand held radio, and he kept reading me the engine RPM’s and oil pressure. I would gather the information and analyze the data, and radio back to him that it was ok to continue. This went on for hour and no problems to report. I gave Steve permission to do a full power run and stressed to him...

...1. What are the key success factors for Electrosteel? Is international expansion a good idea? Success Factors India had policies that protected local industry, and that combined with complicated government bureaucracy, complex duties, and convoluted tax structures that made it difficult for multinationals to conduct business there. Electrosteel being the local player could enjoy the protectionism provided by the local state and central governments. As the state and the central governments were investing highly on the infrastructural projects, Electrosteel was growing at a rapid speed owing to these new infrastructural projects across the domestic market. Being the biggest producer of CIP and DIP in the domestic market Electrosteel they have a Well Established brand in India and maintained an extensive local network of agents and a team of sales professionals. In India the operational costs are very low and the labour is available at cheaper cost than those used by competitors. The skilled labour is available in India at fairly low wages and the employees at Electrosteel are loyal. Early entry into market in 1965 gave it First Movers advantage The plant had been accredited with ISO 9002 certification and international product certification widely recognized by customers. International Expansion International expansion would offer a strong opportunity for continued growth, with the added benefit of providing additional hard currency for further investment in new production technologies...

...external optics needed. 3. All-fiber The optical signal never leaves the fiber. In All-Fiber Modulators low external power is necessary. There is no need of external optics or precision alignment. Modulation capabilities of the glass are very poor. Electro-optic Effect Electro optic effect is the base for most of the optical modulators. In linear electro- optic Effect, The refractive indices of crystals are linked to external electric field. In this Modulator the light propagating in an anisotropic medium can be decomposed into its normal modes, or Eigen waves. It can be determined by the index ellipsoid In certain crystals the application of an external electric field will redistribute the charges in the molecules. It results in a size change and orientation change of the index ellipsoid. This is the electro-optic effect. This effect relates the dimensions of the index ellipsoid to an applied electric field. The electro optic tensor explains the electro-effect mathematically. Electro-optic effect is best described via a induced deformation of the index ellipsoid. In a Cartesian co-ordinate system It is defined by An electric field can now change the co-efficient as per the equation Where is a electro optic tensor. ,and are the x, y, z components...

... The Customer Service department of Electro Tech has now successfully implemented ERP . As you look around the room, you still see an open area full of cubicles. The most obvious change in the surroundings is that instead of dumb terminals, there are now personal computers at each station. Multi-line telephones are still standard issue, but the constant ring has leveled to a normal work pace. There has also been a noticeable drop in the stacks of paper that fill the room. As you recall, the Electro Tech Customer Service department is open Monday through Friday 7.00 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. EST. Looking at a typical day in the Customer Service department, you meet Bob Peters, who has been working at the order desk of Electro Tech for about five years.

...g. Analysis account balance for Account Receivable, inventory, and short/current long-term debt. Account Receivable * 2011: 7,936,409 * 2012: 8,619,857 * 2013: 13,042,165 Based on these account receivable, the number is slightly changed between 2011 and 2012 around $683,448 and there is significantly increased from 2012 to 2013 about $4,422,308. The reason why the number is extremely high for 2013 could be because Pinnacle just recently acquired the second division, which is Solar-Electro, and the third division Machine-Tech is only operated for two years. Since those two divisions only operated for a short period of time, company might have promotion for existed customers to be able to be their loyal supplier. They also could have programs for new customers to purchase their engine equipment with long-term installment payments. Inventory: * 2011: 25,271,503 * 2012: 25,537,198 * 2013: 32,236,021 From 2012 to 2013, Pinnacle’s inventory is slightly increased for $265,695. However, more than $6,698,823 inventory they have on hand from 2012 to 2013. Once again, they want to maximize productivity of two new divisions and keeping up with the existed Welburn division to be able to meet their customers’ orders. They needed to have more variety of their inventories so they can have it ready to ship.

Also known as a lie detector, which assess and records four major components that include heart rate, blood pressure, respiration and skin conductivity (Patrick, C. J., 1989). Electrolytes released on the skin surface during perspiration lowers the electrolytic resistance to the skin, thus increasing electro-dermal activity. Lying can cause changes in heart rate, breathing rate, and electro dermal activity. These responses can be stimulated by involuntary stress responses detecting in increase in the secreting of electrolytes or the increase sweat being secreted by sweat glands on the skin thus measuring the emotional connectivity and stress responses to the environment in...

...Into to Physical Science Instructor: Olga Gubanova, M.S. 17 February 2013 2013 Assignment 3 Describe the difference between a mixture and a compound. Mixtures consist of Physical combinations of any amount of different substances that do not chemically combine in a reaction, While A mixture can be separated into its components by Physical means, such as Filtration, Solution, Distillation, and Magnetism among others. Suppose that you have a pure substance. How can you tell whether it is a compound or an element? Compounds are formed by the Chemical Combination (reaction) of two or more Pure Elements in definite proportions to form totally new substances having very different properties to those of the elements of their make up. Compounds can only be separated by chemical reaction. To tell if it is a compound or an element, you have to know whether it is the element itself, or made up of 2 or more different elements that can be observed by seeing the formula. The two types of bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. In an ionic bond, the atoms are bound together by the attraction between oppositely-charged ions. For example, sodium and chloride form an ionic bond, to make NaCl, or table salt. In a covalent bond, the atoms are bound by shared electrons. If the electron is shared equally between the atoms forming a covalent bond, then...

...This is probably the most cherished work of mine. I had heard the potential hazards of cell phones, and after spending an extended amount of time doing the research, the findings negating cell phone safety was irrefutable. I think that since cell phones are such a highly debated topic, it was an awesome subject to tackle, and I hope this paper can help people think twice about cell phone safety. Unseen Dangers: The Reality of Cell Phones The Industrial Revolution marked the beginning of modern technology, creating fruitful moments in history that paved the groundwork for the Information Age. The advancement of computer chip technology allowed us to create the modern day cell phones, revolutionizing the concept of communication. Today our lives depend on these mobile phones, which have advanced into mobile-computers. Despite the beneficial uses and entertaining characteristics of the mobile phone, the devices are highly debated over their potential health risks. As the device becomes pervasive in modern society, it is important to more fully understand the potential health hazards that growing evidence suggests, and to ultimately reevaluate the information that industry funded and tailored studies supply for the public in the United States. Are cell phones the pinnacle of wireless communication, or what if these contemporary devices increase the risk of life-threatening illnesses for billions of people worldwide? The rapid development of communication technology has created...
