This depends on where you live and what you are distilling. Water and essential oils can be distilled with any of the equipment that we sell. If you plan to distill alcohol, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with and abide by your local laws regarding the distillation of alcohol. In many places it is still illegal to distill alcohol without a permit. If this the case where you live, we encourage you to obtain the necessary permits before distilling alcohol.
Please know that it is your responsibility to use your still legally, not ours.
Do we sell commercial scale equipment?
Yes we do. We have sold equipment into many craft distilleries across Canada and the USA. We provide a full range of stills, mash tuns, hot liquor tanks, brew kettles, conical fermenters, and bright tanks in any size up to a 10,000 litre working capacity. Large equipment is built to order and lead time is generally 12-16 weeks. We require a 50% down payment on the equipment to begin production and the remaining 50% when it's ready to ship to your facility. All of our equipment is highly customizable. Please call us at 416 371 9239 today for a free consultation and quote.
What's the difference between a pot still, reflux still, and flute column?
A pot still simply collects and condenses the alcohol vapours that come off the boiling mash. This will result in alcohol at about 40-60% purity, with plenty of flavour in it. If this distillate were put through the pot still again, it would increase in purity to around 70-85% purity, and lose a bit of its flavour. Pot stills only have one product condenser, and are ideal for making flavourful spirits like whiskey, brandy, and rum.
A reflux still does these multiple distillations in one single go, by having some packing in a column and allowing the vapour to condense and trickle back down through the packing with the help of an extra condenser at the top of the column called a reflux condenser. This "reflux" of liquid helps clean the rising vapor and increase the ABV% purity. The taller the packed column, and the higher the reflux ratio, the purer the product will be. Reflux ratio is controlled by the amount of water passing through the reflux condenser relative to the temperature heating the boiler. When operated correctly, our reflux stills can distill ethanol up to 95% purity. The advantage of refluxing is that it can result in a clean vodka, with little flavour to it – ideal for mixing with flavours etc. Our reflux columns can also be fitted with one of our gin baskets for making gin. Copper packing for our reflux columns is purchased separately and does not come with the purchase of the column itself. Our reflux stills can be run just like a pot still, simply by removing the some or all of the packing from the column and turning off water flow to the reflux condenser.
A plated flute column works similarly to a reflux still in that it has a reflux condenser (or "deplegmator") at the top of the column, however instead of using packing, our flutes use a series of copper bubble plates inside of the column to increase purity. The vapour in the column re-condenses and percolates each time it passes through one of these plates, resulting in the loss of some water and increasing of the purity of the spirit. The more plates in the column, the higher the ABV% and the more flavour removed. Flute columns are very common in the craft distilling industry and are commonly used commercially to make all kinds of spirits such as vodka, whiskey, gin, rum, and brandy. Our flutes can be easily fitted with one of our gin baskets for the production of gin.
How much product will I get from a single run?
This greatly depends on the ABV% (alcohol by volume percentage) of the mash. Depending on how much sugar is added, which type of yeast is used, and if yeast nutrients are used, most mashes ferment to an ABV of 7 – 20%. A 20% mash would yield twice as much product as a 10% mash.
For simplicity sake, lets take a 100 litre still for example. If it was filled with a mash fermented to 10% ABV, one would theoretically collect 10 litres of 100% alcohol. Now remember that only about 75% of that will remain after removing foreshots, heads, and tails. This would leave 7.5 litres of 100% alcohol. Now, if this was cut with water down to 50%, there would now be 15 litres of product at 50% ABV.
If you started out with a mash fermented to 20% ABV instead of 10% ABV, you would end up with 30 litres of product at 50% ABV.
Now that you understand how much a 100 litre still will yield, you can estimate how much is possible with different still sizes and figure out which size is best for your needs.
Going blind from drinking moonshine is a long standing myth that began in the prohibition era. Illicit bootleggers were sometimes known to mix highly toxic industrial grade methanol with their spirits in order to maximize profits. Consuming these high concentrations of methanol was known to cause death and blindness in some cases. In smaller concentrations, methanol is known to cause headaches and hangovers.
While it is true that the fermentation process can be known to produce trace amounts of methanol, not nearly enough is produced to make a person go blind when distilling relatively small batches. As a rule of thumb, we recommend that you always discard the first 50ml of distillate for every every 20 litres of mash that you run. This will ensure that you have removed any methanol that may be present.
Which is better, copper or stainless steel?
It's a well known fact that copper is beneficial to the distilling process because it removes sulphides and unwanted flavours from the final product. This effect however is usually only observed on a large scale of production and is generally not noticeable with smaller batches. In the event that a mash contains a lot of sulphur, it's a good idea to have some copper in the vapour path. We sell copper mesh packing and suggest packing a roll inside of your stainless steel column to take care of any sulphides that may be present. Stainless steel is beneficial because it stays shiny, is extremely durable, easy to clean, and costs less than copper.
Can I customize my still?
Of course! With our triclamp system, all of our equipment is highly modular. Items like sight glasses, window sections, bubble plates, and gin baskets can be easily configured in countless ways with any of our stills to create something entirely unique if you like!
Yes, we work with two financing companies who will help to finance equipment $5,000.00 and up. Call us for details.
Where can I learn more about the distillation process?

The European Association and its research institute "The Interdisciplinary Research Centre ICCR" is a not-for-profit research organisation created in 1989. It took over the research activity of the former ICCR and its staff in 2017 as the ICCR Foundation has decided to concentrate on various event organisation and is based on funds contributed by the Federation of the Construction Industry of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce and the City of Vienna. It is an independent, international, non-profit research institute specialized in strategic policy analysis. For its research, the European Association employs applied, multi-disciplinary and comparative approaches, with Europe defining the geographical scope. Based in Vienna, Austria its scope of activities covers the whole of Europe and beyond. Among the clients of the EA and the former ICCR are the European Commission, Austrian authorities, Austrian Research Funds, and the Deutscher Bundestag (TAB).
The European Association was involved in European projects since its early beginnings. The EA took over another social science research centre, ICCR Foundation that has existed for more than 25 years with a focus on sustainability. It was involved in international research since the 3rd European Framework Programme on Research and Development.
On behalf of the European Liberal Forum a consortium of FORES, Sweden, Friedrich-Naumann Stiftung and ICCR (for NEOS Lab) looks at sustainable transport with a focus on energy security. Reducing EU's dependency on imported energy sources would have clear positive security implications, in line with already established EU policy and potentially of great importance to reach EUs climate targets. The sector that uses the most imported fossil energy is the transports sector.
In a policy oriented follow-up project of the recently finalised project "Europe's Energy Future", FORES and its partners on behalf of the European Liberal Forum will focus on the relation between energy security and climate by concentrating on the transport sector. The project looks at alternative fuels and alternative transport systems.
On the urban, regional, national and European levels citizens' participation got since an ever increasing attention in public opinion and in the social sciences. With the development of modern ICTs online participation became more and more popular. One could argue that this development has led to a new quality of political participation.


No this isn't a line to try on with ladies, just a statement of the facts regarding today's skiing. Overnight we had snow but only 4 cms. It was enough to make everthing look pretty and to give a soft surface raising the base to 251 cms. You would not have expected more but amazingly enough it delivered a great days skiing and some stashes of deep powder which I can only assume came from some windsift.
We went to the New Side with temps of around -6 at the base and overcast ridge lines threatening flurries all day. During the day the base temps rose to about zero and upper mountain temps hung in at about -5 but cold in the wind. We decided to try Polar Peak if it was open on the grounds that the elevation and windsift in the chutes should have created some good powder.
On arriving a White Pass top we found that Polar Peak was closed due to poor viz so we had a couple of runs up and down White Pass and found fresh tracks almost anywhere we wanted. With no sign of the Peak opening we went out to Cougar Glades which were untracked in the top although a couple of tracks appeared half way down and then disappeared again - great skiing particularly in the left hand creek bed exit.
Next time round Polar Peak was open but it didn't look like the viz had improved much. When we got to the top a patroller buddy told me it was "a bit milky" in the chutes, half way down I thought that rather than "a bit milky" it looked like we had got the whole frigging dairy until we dropped out of the clouds and had a great rip down the lower portion of Popa Bear. Stag Leap was tracked on the left and centre but on the right it was untracked and I had great soft skiing top to bottom.
At the White Pass top next time unsurprisingly Polar Peak had been reclosed due to poor viz. We went out and I hiked Cornice Ridge to the top of Lone Fir and then has some great steep chute skiing with only a couple of tracks in front of me. Lynda had taken Easter from the top and said it was untracked when we met briefly in Easter bowl before I headed off into Spinal Tap which was again lightly tracked deep snow. As always it was fun jumping from the creek bed to the right shoulder and back againg all the way down.
Last run before lunch was Skydive which still had soft bumps in the top and great skiing in soft snow all the way down - a bit ribby in the bottom section.
After lunch Polar Peak had reopened although it was still very white in the top. We went out to Mama Bear which was very deep soft powder untracked in the wind sift - awesome skiing. I then hiked up to Lone Fir but decided to do to chute one further which we call One Step Beyond, it was tight and steep but great soft snow skiing all the way down through the chute and then into Easter bowl.
Next loop we went up Polar peak and got out to Baby Bear which was even better than Mama Bear with amazing deep untracked snow. We cut left out to the top of Decline and after the first section dropped Window Chutes which were still lightly tracked and very deep under the log drop. This brought the seasons Polar Peak total to 58.
We didn't have quite enough time for another Peak so we went out to Anaconda and had a great drop on the second shoulder which was untracked as usual with all the traffic having taken the chutes themselves - more great powder skiing.
Final run was the usual rip down Skydive which was just as it was in the run before lunch (see above) and after that beer. As I said for some reason today was great powder skiing, perhaps it was the wind sift and the 4 cms of new snow or pehaps it was that we were accessing areas that had not been tracked much in the past few days. For whatever reason it was a great day. Snow now forecast for the next 7 days and although tomorrow will be ugly as the Saturday of Alberta Family weekend I think we could be in for some good skiing.


Is your rain jacket really leaking? Probably not. But the outer fabric may be 'wetting out', causing excess condensation inside which can make you damp and cold. McNett Revivex Durable Water Proofing Outerwear Repellent is the industry standard for restoring water repellency to all types of outerwear including Gore-Tex and eVent garments or insulated garments, soft shells and ski wear.
When new, these garments have a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment that causes water to bead and roll off these garments. Revivex restores this water repellency without affecting the breathability of the garment. Just wash, then spray, and tumble dry (if appropriate and recommended by the manufacturer). Environmentally friendly formula; water-based and odour-free.
Ideal for rain gear, tents and backpacks and waders.

Karl Kristian Emil Fischer (født 12. april 1861 i Kristiania, død 30. marts 1939 sammesteds) var en norsk biblioteksmand.

Fischer tog filologisk embedseksamen 1887, virkede nogle år som lærer og var tillige fra 1885 ansat ved Universitetsbiblioteket, fra 1896 som amanuensis, indtil han 1910 blev chefbibliotekar ved Stortingets bibliotek. Han har nedlagt et betydeligt arbejde i organisationen af Norges folkebiblioteksvæsen og blev 1906 Kirkedepartementets bogsamlingskonsulent. Fischer redigerede 1894—97 udenlandsartiklen i Norske Intelligenssedler, 1897—1901 og 1908 Kristiania Journalistklubs kalender For alle, 1898—99 tidsskriftet Ringeren (sammen med Sten Konow) og 1900 det i anledning af Parisudstillingen udgivne officielle værk om Norge. Efter J.B. Halvorsens død overtog han (1900) den norske redaktion af 1. udgave af Salmonsens Leksikon. Han var endvidere (sammen med Nordahl Rolfsen) redaktør af tidsskriftet For Folke- og Barneboksamlinger (1907—15), der fra 1916 fortsættes med udvidet program under titlen For Folkeoplysning med Fischer som eneredaktør. var formand i bibliotekskomiteen af 1919, der fremsatte forslag til en række betydningsfulde reformer i det norske biblioteksvæsen. Komiteens forslag har af finansielle grunde hidtil blot delvis kunnet gennemføres. Fischer fratrådte i 1921 som bibliotekar i Stortinget, idet hans stilling som bibliotekskonsulent i Kirkedepartementet samtidig blev omdannet til et embede, der krævede sin mand helt ud. Fra samme år var han tillige konsulent for Folkeakademierne.

Q: Normalized Tables in MVC with Concurrency Checking (ACID) Two part question:
Number 1: What is the best approach in creating a model for an object that references another object, when some of the properties/attributes of the referenced object are not always necessary?
Imagine if you have two objects: PERSON and BUSINESS
Person
+ PersonID
+ Name
+ Age
+ Sex
+ Skill
+ Business *

Business
+ BusinessID
+ Name
+ Address
+ CorporateVision (this is large)

In the example above: A PERSON has a reference to a BUSINESS as their current employer.
In the database, I would have two tables for each object.  While in code, using the MVC architecture pattern, I would have two classes for each object.   The database would have a foreign-key relationship between BUSINESS-->PERSON, while in code the PERSON object would have a member variable that holds a reference to a BUSINESS object.
Now let's say I want to enumerate on a collection of PERSONS and find out the total number of those that work for a specific company (based on BUSINESS . Name).
Without using MVC, I could just create a function that would query the database and get a count.  Simple and efficent.
WITH MVC, I need to instantiate every PERSON object, which in turns, instantiates a BUSINESS object for the reference (if one was not already done for it... the BusinessFactory would check a collection first).  Furthermore, it MUST pull in BUSINESS . CorporateVision from the database for every object.  And because most of these businesses are Media Marketing Companies, most of their corporate visions are large text blobs.  So it is very unnecessary to read CorporateVision from the database when all we need is the name of the business.
I could solve this problem by having changing the PERSON object in code to:
Person
+ PersonID
+ Name
+ Age
+ Sex
+ Skill
+ BusinessID
+ BusinessName

So now when I create my PERSON object, I do a JOIN with BUSINESS and cache the name.  Now I can get the BusinessName quickly and efficiently... and I still can get the full BUSINESS object as needed by doing a lookup on the ID.  But I just denormalized the model... and I just introduced a new problem... and a new question.
Number 2: How does MVC handle concurrency with a multi-user database?
Lets say while my client application is enumerating (using the enumeration that I mentioned above that finds all people that work for a particular business), another user merged two of the BUSINESS objects.
Now my in-memory collection is wrong because all of the BusinessName caching is stale.  The same could be true if I had just left the PERSON . Business as a BUSINESS object reference: The BUSINESS object would be stale.
In summary: I feel that with MVC I lose data retrieval efficiency as well as the loss of the ACIDness of my application.  Or am I using MVC wrong?

A: You seem to mix UI and Data access, while you should minimize their dependencies over another. MVC is actually a pretty broad pattern which describes how application interacts with user. Both your questions are related to data access.
1) MVC is the way you organize UI. So, model is a piece of information you want to make user interact with. Note, business objects are not priority here. If there is a case when use loads a Person class along with several properties from Business, so be it: your second Person rendition is a perfect model for this case. And so on - each use case requires a different model and you should create different model for different scenarios.
If you think it's easier for you to call a function to calculate the number - fine. Remember, you are not bound to business objects here.
With more 'object'-oriented approach we usually solve this reference problem in two ways:

*

*first is lazy loading, with is out-of-the-box feature for modern O/RMs. So you load a person and after a first call to Person.Business, latter is loaded automatically.

*second is that you create a special kind UI, which is aware of your data access specifics and either has only fields you use, or requests additional data in an async manner from a client.

2) Again, MVC doesn't handles concurrency, and it shouldn't handle it and shouldn't even bother. It's a concern of data access layer. And there are also several ways to deal with concurrency, major of them are optimistic and pessimistic locks. (With the first one you allow different users to make conflicting changes and try to resolve conflicts when they  occur. The second way prevents conflicts by locking updates completely). Again, O/RMs deal with it usually; or you can use your own implementation, but it should be still data access, not MVC part.

The all-day roar of classic cars transitioned into the roar of evening laughter on Sunday as two respective events were staged to raise funds for various local charities and the John Burroughs High School Football program.
The day began as the Burbank Road Kings roared into Johnny Carson Park to present their 21st annual Picnic in the Park and Car Show. To rev up the event, Gino Gaudio sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" as the U.S. and California flags were unfurled by Boy Scout Troop 50.
With the event then dutifully underway, Tony Wade headed up a pancake breakfast before taking to the grill for a lunch of burgers and hot dogs with the help of his wife, Donna, and supporters and members of Kiwanis For Fun and the Burbank Kiwanis Aktion Club including Jan Loporchio, Steve, Joe and Danny Harris and Ricky Hernandez.
Along with the food and fun of perusing more than 650 various makes, models and years of hot rods and custom and factory muscle cars, the day's events also included numerous vendor booths, drawings, and a silent auction.
Co-chaired by Don Baldaseroni and Frank Nay, Sunday's picnic and car show was also made possible by the organization's officers, President Chuck Hanson, Vice President Rick Kalisz, Secretary Chuck Stein, Treasurer Lou Bartoletti and Sergeant-At-Arms Jim Gascoigne. Other members of both the Road Kings and the Road Queens whose work assisted in making the day a success were Ginny Metz, Ginny Hanson, Don and Marsha Mueller, Diane and Nick Sketfu, Rochelle Binkle, Joe Hinneman, Sue Baldaseroni, Mary Nay, Karl Grossman and Roseand Roger Nevrel.
All proceeds from this annual event are donated to the numerous charities the Road Kings have embraced including Burbank High School's Auto Shop Program, the Burbank Fire and Police Museum, the Burbank Historical Society, Burbank Parks, Recreation and Community Services programs, the Burbank Temporary Aid Center, the Burbank Boys and Girls Club, Tierra Del Sol, Joslyn Adult Center, the Burbank Summer Youth Work Program, and the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life.
Just as the last of the classic cars roared out of Carson Park, the roar of laugher heated up as the John Burroughs High School Arrowhead Boosters staged their second annual Comedy Night in the school's auditorium.
The brainchild of event co-chairs, Arrowhead Booster Vice President Dorina Tilton and comedian Mark Eddie, more than 450 supporters of the school's football program enjoyed a dinner provided my Santoro's Submarine Sandwiches and the comedic stylings of some of today's hottest comedians.
Combining numerous appearances in nationwide comedy clubs and on Comedy Central, "The Late Show With David Letterman," Sirius-XM Radio and "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno," Sunday's lineup was headlined by Eddy, who was joined by comedians Drake Witham, Diane Nichols and Collin Moulton. Among the notables in attendance for Sunday's comedy fundraiser were Arrowhead Boosters President Mark Stevens, Burroughs Indians Head Coach Keith Knoop and many of his players including Eli Peppmuller, Tyler Tilton, Tadeo Zuniga, Steven Boza, Garrett Schiavelle. Others whose work made for a successful evening included volunteers Shari McDonald, Sonnie Monslave, Dorina Tilton, Cozette Kenehan and Cheryl Stevens.


BUENOS AIRES – A baby goat born with terrifying demonic features sparked so much fear in rural Argentina that locals had to call the police.
Owner Gladys Oveido was left "deeply surprised" when she saw the face of the new arrival on her farm.
"It was extraordinary, this goat was born deformed but we don't know why," Gladys Oviedo said.
"The rest of the baby is normal; it only has deformations in the head. It is unusual what happened," she added.
Video of the strange creature is also making rounds on the social media.
The kid, which was sadly stillborn, was born with "protruding eyes" in San Luis province, central Argentina.
The goat only survived for roughly three hours, however.
"When we took it back from the field, it began bleating. I said that once we arrived home I would give it milk with a spoon but I noticed it was having difficulty breathing and soon after it died," Oviedo explained.
"I have no idea how it was born this way, but it certainly drew a lot of attention," she concluded.

Guerrilla Games Seems to be Working on an Open World Co-op RPG
Job listings suggest that Guerrilla is working on a new multiplayer open world RPG, with reports claiming that it will be a new Horizon game.
Posted By Shubhankar Parijat | On 29th, Sep. 2021
When you think of Guerrilla Games and multiplayer, the first name that comes to mind is obviously Killzone, but it seems that the studio is looking to do something different in that space. As per job listings on the developer's official website (spotted by VGC), a new co-op open world action RPG is in the works.
Various job listings mention social systems for player engagement, guilds that can explore game worlds together, and "stories and narrative design in open-world RPG games, online games, and MMORPGs" with a focus on "mission, quest writing and narrative design."
VGC says, echoing a report from April 2020, that according to its sources, the project is a standalone co-op game set in the Horizon universe. As per Horizon Zero Dawn concept art that was leaked back in 2014, Guerrilla had plans for co-op even for the first game, similar to Monster Hunter titles, but those plans were eventually scrapped.
Sony the wanted co-op to be included in the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West, but Guerrilla instead decided to save the concept for an individual game that could be either a standalone project or the third mainline Horizon entry. According to VGC, if it's the former, progress will carry over from it into the next Horizon title.
Interestingly enough, Guerrilla Games has been working on a "secret" multiplayer project since 2018 (which is something that previous job listings have strongly suggested as well), with development being led by Simon Larouche – who was heavily involved in Killzone 2's multiplayer during his first stint at Guerrilla Games. He then joined Ubisoft, where he worked on Splinter Cell Blacklist and Watch Dogs 2, before going on to become the director of Rainbow Six Siege. He rejoined Guerrilla Games in 2018.
Guerrilla Games' next game, Horizon Forbidden West, is due out for the PS5 and PS4 on February 18, 2022.

Hüsker Dü — американський панк-рок-гурт, створений в Сент-Полі, штат Міннесота 1979 року. Постійними учасниками гурту стали: гітарист Боб Молд, басист Грег Нортон і барабанщик Грант Гарт, окрім своїх прямих обов'язків кожен з них інколи був вокалістом.

Після випуску серії альбомів на незалежному лейблі SST Records, включаючи такі відомі альбоми гурту, як Zen Arcade (1984) та New Day Rising (1985), Hüsker Dü підписали контракт із мейджор-лейблом Warner Bros. Records.

Першу популярність колектив отримав, як хардкор-панк-гурт. Пізніше вони розвинули мелодійніший стиль і відійшли від свого раннього звучання, тим самим вплинув на зародження і розвиток альтернативного року. Молд і Гарт розділили обов'язки у написанні пісень і кожен із них виконував лише свої пісні.

У 1987 році група припинила виступати у зв'язку із самогубством менеджера Девіда Севоя, а також розбіжностями між Хартом та Моулдом. Під час спільної бесіди у січні 1988 року музиканти вирішили розпустити колектив. Моулд випустив два сольні альбоми, а в 1992 році створив гурт Sugar, який грає в схожому стилі. Гарт випустив сольний альбом на SST Records, після чого створив гурт Nova Mob. Нортон після розпаду припинив активну музичну діяльність.

Hüsker Dü ніколи не отримували широкої популярності і продажі їх альбомів залишалися скромними, проте вони вплинули на розвиток альтернативного року, зокрема поппанку і ґранджу. Вплив гурту визнавали музиканти таких колективів, як: Pixies, Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Therapy?, Foo Fighters та Green Day.

On Tuesday 18th July, Australia led the way when over 70 senior finance industry executives from around the world attended an exclusive event hosted by non-bank prime services provider, Invast Global, to promote the recent launch of the FX Global Code of Conduct.
Special guest for the evening was Dr Guy Debelle, Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia. Dr Debelle has been instrumental throughout the two years of the code being established through his role as Chairman of the BIS Markets Committee for the majority of the period. He worked closely with representatives from the central bank and private sector from all the 16 largest FX centres in the world.
Speaking from the private Salon Prive at O-Bar Dining, Dr Debelle discussed the importance of the code in restoring confidence and trust in the wholesale FX market and promoting its effective functioning with greater transparency. Dr Debelle emphasised that the code is principle-based rather than rules-based so that market participants consider whether their actions are consistent with the code – rather than attempting to navigate around defined rules. Importantly the code is both a single code for the whole industry as well as a global code.
An intimate opportunity for networking followed the key note speech. Guests included leading executives from financial regulators, major global bank and non-bank liquidity providers, electronic trading technology firms, bank prime brokers, global exchanges, sovereign wealth and pension funds alongside industry bodies.
'The FX Global Code of Conduct is a key development for the FX market and it was our pleasure to host the most senior figures in the industry and assist in ensuring that this initiative remains front of mind for key industry participants', White added.

The story of Wallace Stevens's life is one of the most paradoxical in the chronicles of modern poets. His poems are among the most elegant, rhythmically alluring, and imagistically lush in the English language. The man who wrote them led a lifestyle that was hardly exotic—he wore three-piece suits, had a reserved public manner, worked at an insurance company, and followed a daily routine that was monklike in its austerity. This disciplined regiment, Paul Mariani suggests, was instrumental in his success. Like Flaubert, Stevens purposefully kept the surface of his everyday life "regular and ordinary" in order to be "violent and original" in his art. Every night after work, he would climb the stairs of his Hartford home, shut the bedroom door (he and his wife had stopped sharing a bedroom early in the marriage), and settle into the luxury of being alone with the force of his own imaginative thought. Thinking itself was an intimate act for Stevens—he is the poet who shows us what it is like to think during the act of artistic creation.
Outwardly Stevens was not an ethereal presence—he was a large, physically robust man with a private social manner that could become gregarious when fueled by drink. He had what his friend Carl Van Vechten described as "a refinement of mentality," an attachment to the artistic and intellectual life—fostered under the mentorship of Santayana at Harvard—that ran deep. Stevens's love of abstraction—nourished by his immersion in art, music, and literature and by regular contact with a coterie of New York artists and poets that included William Carlos Williams, Van Vechten, Marcel Duchamp, and Marianne Moore—was central to his poetics, yet he always asserted that whatever was imagined was of necessity grounded in the real.
Not all biographers of literary figures manage to bring the dual tasks of telling a life story and providing meaningful analysis of the author's work into balance, but Mariani consistently succeeds. Since he is himself a practicing poet, Mariani has an instinctive grasp of the process by which modernist poets achieved a mastery of their craft. His analyses of some of Stevens's greatest poems—"Sunday Morning," "Peter Quince at the Clavier," and "The Idea of Order at Key West"—offer precise, penetrating interpretations without lapsing into academically ponderous language. Mariani also discloses interesting new information about Stevens's life, including a physical altercation between Stevens and Hemingway in Key West and the influence of a relatively unknown poet, Donald Evans, on Stevens's work. Mariani further suggests that Stevens's Catholic baptism in the final weeks of his life constituted an authentic religious conversion, although it is possible to speculate that it may simply have reflected Stevens's lifelong need to keep the externals of his life in order.
The Whole Harmonium does what all first-rate literary biographies should do—it beckons us back to a reading of the work itself. Easing back into Stevens's poems, we find ourselves once again in the company of an eloquent lyricist with a highly original and charmingly playful mind.

This guide to establishing an effective lead nurturing program will help you systematically think through the process of building relationships with your leads.
This system will mostly be composed of a series of emails that will make up a campaign to funnel your leads through the sales cycle. An effective lead nurturing program is a marketing tool that you must be using if you want to be successful at inbound marketing. The type of strategy formed below creates credibility for your business and builds trust with your prospects.
When thinking about effective lead nurturing, you should always have the goal in mind of providing some additional value to your potential clients. This process is not only helpful for your leads, but it also enables your sales team to be more efficient; they'll spend less time qualifying leads, and more time closing the leads that have already qualified themselves through your system. Each step builds upon the next, so be sure to complete each step in order!
We recommend sitting down with your sales team to go through a sort of brain storming session. Understanding where each of your offers fits into your overall buying cycle is crucial to this system. The most important step when developing your lead nurturing program is reviewing all of your current web-based offers and determining which ones fit into the top, middle and bottom of the funnel buying cycle. When performing this research, you should include your sales reps and a big pot of coffee! Be sure to carefully analyze your company's customer data to determine which offers turn the majority of your leads into actual buying customers.
Email headline: first two sentences should provide some information on what is contained in the email's content.
Email Body: Should be short (150 words or less) and needs to include one call to action related to the goal of the email.
After you have had your emails edited and reviewed internally multiple times, double check that your links are included and that your message is clear to the recipient. It is very important that before you launch the campaign, you take the time to have people from various departments within your company actually go through the email first. Then, be receptive to feedback! Make any necessary changes to grammar mistakes, broken links or confusing language so that you don't waste your time when you actually launch your real campaign. Once you're all set, now it's time to send to your actual email list of leads.
This is the most important step in the process. Determining the campaign's effectiveness, performance and efficiency is what helps you move forward towards an even better and more effective lead nurturing program. Start measuring as soon as statistics become available. Look at click-through rates, number of conversions on each landing page and, of course, the unsubscribe rate of each email. Edit, adjust and improve those emails that have low click-through rates or high unsubscribe rates.
It breaks my heart every time I see a email campaign that does everything wrong! The idea, folks, is to nurture leads into wanting to hear more about your business. Did you know that only 2% of people coming to your website for the first time are ready to buy at that moment? For growth in business, you must always be ready and inclined to make changes to your approach!
1) Research & Understand Your Buying Cycle – Sit down with your sales team, and do some analysis to find what is already currently working, and what isn't. Know where each item fits into your campaigns.
2) Develop Specific Campaign Goals – Know and develop exactly what you want to accomplish with each and every email of the campaign. This makes tracking, and capturing the most useful information concerning your campaigns much easier. It is always best to write a good story by first knowing how it ends.
3) Create Content for Each Email – Build email content with the goal of moving a potential reader further down the buying cycle, and to qualify the leads. As a general rule, be thorough, but concise. Keep it around 150 words, and make the subject line and opening sentences of the content count!
4) Edit/Test Your Campaigns – Have colleagues of all expertise levels read the content not only for grammar and spelling errors, but also for broken links, and the voice of the language. Constructive criticism is key to success!
4.5) Measure, Analyze and Optimize Emails – Track the performance of your content, and analyze the numbers. Don't be afraid to make changes to anything that isn't working.
Make the decision to establish a strategy for a lead nurturing program today. For more information on inbound marketing/SEO connect with Farotech on LinkedIn or Facebook!


LED Flat Panel Lights are the perfect indoor lighting. substitution for traditional linear fluorescents in offices, commercial and industrial buildings, educational institutions, and retail. Many come DLC standard or premium, which means they qualify for money-saving rebates. They're also rated for nearly 100,000 hours of maintenance-free operation, which means your time (and your customers') can be put towards things that don't involve maintenance. Need a 5-year warranty? They've got those too.
Employers love LED flat panel fixtures because their crisp and even white light can help boost productivity by reducing headaches and eye strain. You will love them because they don't cost ten arms and a leg.
Flat panels, in general, are mostly edge-lit and can work very well in shallow plenum spaces. Since they're easy to clean and maintain, you'll find them in places like fast food restaurants, hospitals, and convenience stores. Their light is distributed widely, rather than focused, so they tend to be a tad easier on the eyes than their traditional fluorescent counterparts.
LED flat panels can help ease common ailments that employees under fluorescent lights tend to experience. This includes headaches, eye strain, neck pains, and lack of focus. Which is another reason why you'll find these fixtures in places like hospitals, waiting rooms and even operating rooms. LED lighting can help calm nerves and provide a more soothing environment for patients, visitors, doctors, and staff.
Convenience and grocery stores also rely on flat panel lights to make everything underneath them look their best. Why, you ask? They often have a high CRI, which makes the colors of everything on those shelves pop, in even and clear light. The result? Potentially more money for your customer. Not to mention, inviting, bright light helps make a store look much more welcoming at night, which tends to attract more customers.
Need a 2x2 flat panel fixture? How about a 1x4? A 2x4? We've got them all. And since we like options as much as you do, you can also choose from Architectural, Edgelit, Flat Lens, and Mount Wrap flat panels. Shop away and contact us with your questions. We like answering those.

Os nitroderivados (ou nitrocompostos ou compostos nitro) são compostos orgânicos que contêm um ou mais grupos funcionais nitro (-NO2). São, frequentemente, explosivos; impurezas variadas ou uma manipulação inapropriada podem, facilmente, desencadear uma decomposição exotérmica violenta.

Os compostos nitro aromáticos são sintetizados pela ação de uma mistura de ácidos sulfúrico e nítrico sobre a molécula orgânica correspondente. Alguns exemplos deste tipo de compostos são o 2,4,6-trinitrofenol (ácido pícrico), o 2,4,6-trinitrotolueno (TNT) e o 2,4,6-trinitroresorcinol (ácido estífnico).

Preparação

Em síntese orgânica, existem vários métodos para preparar compostos nitro.

Compostos nitroalifáticos

 O nitrometano é adicionado a aldeídos em uma adição 1,2 na reação nitroaldólica.
 O nitrometano é adicionado a compostos carbonílicos alfa-beta insaturados na adição 1,4 da reação de Michael atuando como um "doador" de Michael.
 O nitroetileno é um "receptor" de Michael na reação de Michael com compostos enolato.
 Em reações de substituição nucleofílica sobre haleto de alquilo mediante nitrito de sódio (NaNO2) se obtém nitroalcanos.

Compostos nitroaromáticos

 Em uma substituição eletrofílica aromática, o ácido nítrico reage com compostos aromáticos no que se conhece como nitração.

Como exemplo típico e mais simples, temos a nitração do benzeno, na produção do nitrobenzeno. O método clássico envolve o tratamento de benzeno com uma mistura de ácido sulfúrico e ácido nítrico concentrados (chamada de "mistura sulfonítrica") e água. Esta produção é um dos mais perigosos processos da indústria química devido à exotermicidade da reação (ΔH = −117 kJ/mol).

A capacidade mundial de produção de nitrobenzeno em 1985 era de aproximadamente 1,7×106 toneladas.
 Um método clássico partindo de fenóis halogenados é a nitração de Zincke.

Reações

Os compostos nitro participam em várias reações orgânicas.

Compostos nitroalifáticos

 Os compostos nitro alifáticos são reduzidos a aminas com ferro e ácido clorídrico.
 Conversão de os compostos nitro a aldeídos ou cetonas mediante a reação de Nef.

Compostos nitroaromáticos

 A redução de compostos nitroaromáticos com hidrogênio sobre um catalisador de paládio/carbono conduz a anilinas.
 A presença de grupos nitro facilita as substituições nucleofílicas aromáticas

Hidroxilaminas
Vários métodos são utilizadas para a produção de aril-hidroxilaminas a partir de compostos aril-nitro:

 Redução eletrolítica
 Zinco metálico em cloreto de amônio
 Redução catalítica utilizando ródio

Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti state has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to call members of his cabinet to order, saying they are needlessly heating up the polity.
Fayose, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, took a swipe at the Comptroller General of Customs, Hamed Ali, over his refusal to appear before the Senate in uniform.
He urged the Federal Government to focus on addressing the economic challenges facing the country rather than getting preoccupied with, what he described as, "trivialities and inanities".
He said, "Governance has been reduced to a theatre of the absurd. These appointees of yours are needlessly and embarrassingly flexing muscles and are heating up the polity; they appear to be having fun and regaling themselves at the expense of the nation. The economy has collapsed and the people are suffering. There is hunger and anger never before witnessed in the land.
"Yet, Presidential appointees are preoccupied with trivialities and inanities. Wearing of uniform has suddenly become a Supreme Court matter. Why a man who will not wear uniform went to take a uniformed job beggars belief. How someone who has so little respect and scanty regard for an organisation like the Nigeria Customs Service should be made to head the same organisation must baffle right-thinking Nigerians.
"In other societies where people have a sense of decency and decorum, people with such irreconcilable differences would honourably resign their position.
"And where a government finds itself unable to effectively govern, as we appear to have here on our hands, it behoves the head of that government to do the needful.
"Mr President, let it not be said that you have lost grip of your government. Nigerians are beginning to believe, as a statement of fact, your wife's allegation that a cabal has taken over your government. Your defence that your wife belongs to "the other room" now rings hollow in the ears of Nigerians.
"The saying is that he who appoints can also disappoint. Your appointees are your creation and it is an aberration when they become greater and more powerful than you. Mr President, the tail is wagging the dog right now. You must take effective and firm action to reverse this ugly and unwholesome trend.
"I am also the head of a government and I know how it works. The 'consortium of presidents' around you, as Nigerians now derisively refer to those 'powerful' and larger-than-life appointees of yours who take delight in riding roughshod over the polity and desecrating the hallowed chambers of justice, must be cut to size. If you need help, Nigerians are ready to queue behind you on this issue to put an end to your appointees' shenanigans.
"Mr President, I, Ayo Fayose, volunteer to help you in this regard. As a state governor, I cannot brook a tenth of what you are taking from your appointees. None of my appointees can disrespect and disparage the Ekiti State House of Assembly like your appointees are doing to the National Assembly.
