When you are working on a patent, it is important to have a clear strategy and roadmap that everyone involved in your project can follow. When you are organized and goal-oriented, your strategy will go a lot smoother, and your chances of being issued a successful patent from the USPTO in a timely fashion will increase significantly. No matter if this is your first or your thousandth patent, everyone will agree that a strategy is foundational to a well-run project and a successful patent submission.
Take a look at these five steps that we suggest when you are developing a strategy.
Without clear goals, your team will have a difficult time knowing if the work they are doing is aligning with your expectations and the required outcomes. Goals are the bedrock of a successful project, and when you are developing a patent strategy, these goals are no less important.
It is important to understand that you will likely need to set drastically different goals for each person involved in the process, depending on their specific role.
If your concept is built off of the idea of a single patent, are you sure that you will only need that one patent? While you are working towards getting your patent developed, submitted, and approved, it is also a good time to start thinking about any other protections you may need to either file for, acquire, or pay royalties for.
If you determine that you need to acquire or license more patents in order to capitalize on your own invention, you will want to understand the financial requirements to expect, and how this will affect your long-term strategy for marketing and selling your product.
If you are going to be putting the work in to develop a new innovation, make sure that you have a plan for how you are going to monetize it. Developing an invention and then applying for the patent is not cheap; once you get your patent, be ready to start executing a strategy to monetize your innovation by production, licensing, or some other way to develop an income.
Patents are important tools for many reasons, but capitalizing on intellectual property is the main motivator behind most patents. If you have an invention but are unsure of your ability to run a business around it, speak with someone who is experienced in patent law in Orlando about your possibility of licensing your patent, or perhaps selling it to a larger company.
Patent law is just as important, if not more important, than the patent development itself. Without a firm understanding of the laws that will support you once you receive your patent, you may find yourself at a serious disadvantage in the market. Speak with a patent lawyer in Orlando to discuss your plan, your options, and how you will be able to take advantage of your intellectual property once the USPTO grants you exclusivity.
Even if you are granted a patent for your intellectual property, it does not guarantee that you will be successful. You may ultimately find that the market does not need your innovation, or perhaps there is an easier or more appealing way to achieve the same result that is not covered by your patent.
When you understand the market that you are innovating for, you lessen your risk of spending both time and financial resources developing a patent that does not serve you in the end.
Ultimately, the keys to a patent strategy are organization, planning, and communication across your team and all of your stakeholders in the project. Without these, you may be able to achieve your ultimate goal, but following our guidelines will be a big help.

Best Things To Do in Charleston, SC
Soaking in the ambiance of the brick-walked, Spanish-mossed downtown is Charleston's to-do. And the best way to see it all is on a walking tour.
Soaking in the ambiance of the brick-walked, Spanish-mossed downtown is Charleston's to-do. And the best way to see it all is on a walking tour. Historic homes are also plentiful: The Nathaniel Russell House, Drayton Hall and Magnolia Plantation & Gardens are just a few examples. And if you want to pick up a few travel souvenirs – perhaps a sweetgrass basket – look no further than the Charleston City Market. There are even a few beaches in close proximity – Folly Beach and Isle of Palms, among others – ideal for warm-weather swimming and cold-weather strolling.
1-Day Itinerary
#1 in Charleston, SC
0.5 miles to city center
Find Tours & Tickets
Free, Neighborhood/Area, Sightseeing
2 hours to Half Day
TIME TO SPEND
Many visitors say you can't leave Charleston without seeing this stretch along the city's southern tip, which they call beautiful and a must-visit. This row of Southern-style mansions overlooking Charleston Harbor was formerly the heart and soul of the city's maritime activity. Today, the area attracts camera-toting tourists from all over the country.
As you explore this picturesque neighborhood, make sure to also spend some time in the nearby White Point Garden, where several Civil War relics and memorials commemorate the city's role in the battle. Start your tour of the Battery at the 12-acre Waterfront Park (home to the giant pineapple fountain featured on many Charleston postcards), then follow the walking paths on East Battery Street for the nearly mile-long stroll to White Point Garden. If you're staying at one of the hotels or bed-and-breakfasts located downtown, you can easily walk along the Battery from your digs. If you're driving to the Battery, you'll find some limited street parking, and some lots closer to Waterfront Park. Bus route No. 211 provides service to Waterfront Park and East Bay Street. Several of the city's best walking tours make stops along the Battery. If you're interested in the history of the mansions or the promenade's role in the Civil War, consider signing up for a tour.
Charleston Boat Tours
Tours, Sightseeing
To get a better view of the Charleston harbor (and maybe even spot some dolphins), consider signing up for a boat tour. Not only will you enjoy some time on the water, you'll also have the chance to learn more about the city's maritime history (many boat captains provide historical commentary throughout their tours). Along the way, you'll likely see some of Charleston's top landmarks, including The Battery, Waterfront Park, the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge, Fort Sumter and Castle Pinckney.
There are a variety of tours and operators (including private charters) in Charleston that offer a bevy of experiences for all types of travelers. Adventure Harbor Tours receives high praise from previous visitors for its Morris Island tours and sunset cruises. Tours aboard The Schooner Pride are also popular, especially if you're interested in the mechanics of sailing, as the captain offers travelers the option to raise and trim the sails with the crew. If you're looking for a less intimate or more formally narrated experience, sign up for a Charleston Harbor Tour, which has a fleet of boats that can accommodate hundreds of passengers.
Isle of Palms County Park
Beaches, Free, Golf, Neighborhood/Area
Half Day to Full Day
If several days in Charleston proper have you longing for a do-nothing day at the beach, Isle of Palms might be just the ticket. Located just 16 miles east of the city, visitors will find about 7 miles of shoreline, ideal for swimming, sailing, windsurfing or sunbathing. If you're having trouble deciding between Charleston's two closest shorelines (don't forget about Folly Beach), your fellow beach bums might help you decide: Isle of Palms is known to attract more families than Folly Beach.
Recent beach-goers praised the wide, clean beach and said it's a beautiful place to relax. Isle of Palms also boasts a few more beachfront vacation rentals, plus the sprawling Wild Dunes Resort and The Sanctuary at Kiawah Island Golf Resort. What's more, you don't have to be a guest to enjoy the two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses at Wild Dunes: both courses are open to the public. However, keep in mind Isle of Palms doesn't offer as many bars or restaurants compared to Folly Beach.
Beaches, Free, Neighborhood/Area
Comprising only 3.3 square miles, Sullivan's Island may not seem like a must-see for Charleston visitors. But this beachfront town proves that good things come in small packages. Sitting at the mouth of the Charleston harbor – a little less than 10 miles east of the downtown area – Sullivan's Island boasts beaches, tasty restaurants and unique shops, plus a colorful history. Many visitors say the beach is ideal for families. You'll also find a bevy of vacation rental properties here – a worthy alternative if you want a little more seclusion than some of downtown Charleston's hotels and bed-and-breakfasts can provide.
Even if you're not much of a beach bum, you'll still find plenty of interesting local history to make a pit stop here worthwhile. For instance, Fort Moultrie was the first fort on Sullivan's Island. Composed of soft palmetto logs, it withstood a nine-hour battle in 1776 when nine warships were advancing on Charleston. Its soft composition meant enemy cannonballs simply bounced off its cushy exterior. Aside from its triumphant ability to protect the city, Fort Moultrie also served a purpose in literary history: Edgar Allan Poe was stationed at the fort from November 1827 to December 1828. Those who have read his short story, "The Gold Bug," will recognize Sullivan's Island as the backdrop of the tale. His brief residency is celebrated at Poe's Tavern, a local watering hole situated about two blocks north of the beach. For a more formal dinner, consider The Obstinate Daughter.
After a few days exploring Charleston's historic sites, take some time to kick back, relax and enjoy the Southern sun. Overlooking the Atlantic – 12 miles south of downtown Charleston – this massive stretch of coastline makes for a great daytrip away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Come here for the nature and the surfing, or head to the pier to sit and fish. Folly Beach's friendly atmosphere attracts a variety of travelers: most of the families stick to the shore, while adults traveling sans kids tend to congregate in the many bars that line the sand. If you're hoping to lay claim to some fine beach real estate, you better get here early: Past visitors said the beach can get crowded as the afternoon progresses. If you didn't bring your own beach chair, you can rent one near the beach, along with umbrellas and nonmotorized sports equipment.
Along with the casual beachfront bars and eateries, you'll also find a few hotels near the shore, as well as restrooms and foot showers for cleaning off sandy toes. Away from the beach sit several casual eateries, including traveler favorites like Taco Boy and Lost Dog Cafe.
Charleston Walking Tours
With its centuries-old mansion and cobblestone streets, Charleston is like a living museum. One of the best ways to learn about its history (and its ghosts) and the significance of its best-known landmarks is on a walking tour. There are a variety of options available, ranging from broad tours of the city's historic downtown district, to more niche tours that explore the city's paranormal presence, pirates and art galleries and studios.
Recent visitors praised operators like Charleston Footprints, Walks of Charleston and Two Sisters Tours. To see a more complete directory of available walking tours, check out our roundup of the eight best.
The Aiken-Rhett House Museum
1 mile to city center
Museums, Historic Homes/Mansions
According to many, there's no better example of antebellum life than the Aiken-Rhett House Museum. Originally built in the early 1800s and then expanded by Gov. William Aiken Jr. and his wife in the 1830s and 1850s, much of the house's original style has been preserved. As you wander through, pay special attention to the antique furnishings, the original wallpaper and the stunning bronze chandeliers installed by the Aiken family. Also, spend some time exploring the grounds: You can visit the slave quarters, the stables and the kitchens, all of which have been preserved to satisfy discerning history buffs.
Recent visitors praised the house tour, specifically the fact that it's a self-guided audio tour (included with admission). Travelers said the audio tour allowed them to view the house at their own pace, without having to wait or rush to catch up to an entire group. However, visitors provided more mixed reviews of the state of the house itself. Some were pleased that the Historic Charleston Foundation chose to leave the property untouched, but others were less impressed, commenting on the need for restoration and general feeling of dilapidation exhibited throughout the house's grounds.
Natural Wonders, Free, Parks and Gardens, Sightseeing
Less than 1 hour
Visitors will find one of Charleston's most photographed icons on Johns Island: the Angel Oak. It is said to be the largest live oak east of the Mississippi. The gorgeous tree is 65 feet high, with a circumference of 25.5 feet. It's estimated that the tree is between 300 and 400 years old. Visitors in the thousands flock to the tree to pose next to its long limbs.
Recent visitors said the tree is worth a quick stop to take a photo of the magnificent natural wonder. Others warned that there are lots of rules to be observed and noted that you'll want to make sure to keep a sharp eye on your kids, who will naturally be tempted to climb the tree.
Charleston Food Tours
Considered one of the best foodie cities in the USA, Charleston is famous for its low country cuisine and bevy of trendy restaurants. For a crash course in the city's best eats, consider spending a few hours with Charleston Food Tours. The company offers seven tours, ranging from one dedicated to the city's best desserts to a private dining experience in the home of a local James Beard award-winning chef.
Past visitors raved about the tours, especially the knowledgeable guides. According to reviewers, this is a great activity if you're interested in the Holy City's food scene as well as its history. Just make sure you go hungry – a few travelers made the mistake of eating before their tour and walked away stuffed.
Drayton Hall
#10 in Charleston, SC
10.8 miles to city center
Historic Homes/Mansions, Sightseeing
Dating back to 1738, Drayton Hall is one of the oldest surviving plantation houses left in the South. Take your time exploring the massive red-brick main house, which hasn't changed all that much from when it was originally built (be aware that there is no air conditioning, electricity or heat). Afterward, you can wander along the walking trails that follow the Ashley River and the marsh, or pay your respects at the on-site African American Cemetery. Archaeological artifacts and objects from the Drayton family are also on display in the on-site Gates Gallery.
Much like the Aiken-Rhett House, Drayton Hall hasn't been structurally renovated. And after surviving the 1886 earthquake and its role as a staging ground for both Colonial and British forces during the Revolution, the house is showing its age. For some visitors, this preservation provided a rare air of authenticity. Travelers also praise the tour guides for their vast knowledge of the house and its history. Though visitors recommended making a stop here, they also warned that admission is pricey.
Crafted Travel Brewery Tours
Tours, Wineries/Breweries
After you've sampled Charleston's culinary scene on a food tour, your next logical step should be a brewery tour. This 4 1/2-hour tour starts with a distillery stop (and five tastings) and continues on to two local breweries for a pint and a flight at each. The tour may visit Charleston Distilling Co., Highwire Distilling, Stripped Pig Distilling, Holy City Brewing, Revelry Brewing, Frothy Beard Brewing, Freehouse Brewery or Palmetto Brewing.
Past visitors gave Crafted Travel high marks for its brewery and distillery tour and praised the knowledgeable and fun guides. Aside from sampling a variety of spirits, participants also learn a great deal about the city, according to reviewers.
Magnolia Plantation & Gardens
Parks and Gardens, Historic Homes/Mansions, Sightseeing
While Middleton Place's gardens attract those who like trimmed hedges and flower-lined paths, the Magnolia Plantation and Gardens is the place to go if you're more of an avid nature lover. Yes, the house is worth an hour of your time – it's a less ornate version of other Charleston plantation homes, but the interior is just as beautiful – but most visitors come here to enjoy the wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for gators, otters and turtles in the Audubon Swamp Garden, grab your binoculars and look for local birds at the waterfowl refuge, don your helmet and bike one of the several trails or get lost in the horticultural maze. Recent travelers also agree that the zoo and nature center make this a great place to bring the kids.
There are also several guided tours offered here, each one detailing a different aspect of the plantation's history or its natural surroundings. Recent visitors specifically recommend taking the 45-minute "From Slavery to Freedom: The Magnolia Cabin Project Tour" (which will cost you an extra $8) and skipping the 30-minute house tour. Families also might enjoy the nature tram or boat rides (also extra).
Free, Neighborhood/Area, Shopping
While some may say that the Charleston City Market is a bit of a tourist trap, others call it a great glimpse into life in the Old South. It is often referred to as the "Slave Market" because it was here that slaves would purchase food for the plantation. Today, the market buzzes with residents and visitors alike, perusing stalls loaded with toys, clothes, leather goods and regional souvenirs. But if you plan on buying anything here, you should head straight to the "basket ladies." These women (and men) have been weaving baskets for centuries – this craft originated in West Africa and has been passed down through the generations – using local materials, such as sweetgrass and palmetto leaves.
Although this is a great place to experience southern charm and to people-watch, recent visitors recommend that buyers beware: A few travelers said some vendors hawk overpriced trinkets. Other enjoyed the variety of unique items.
If there were ever a place to stop and smell the roses, this house would be it. Built in 1755, this mansion was once the home of Arthur Middleton, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Today, Middleton Place houses an impressive collection of historic furniture and portraits (all originally owned by the Middleton family), plus a stable with heritage-bred animals. Visitors can also watch historical re-enactors demonstrate the skills and technology used on an 18th-century plantation or take a carriage or specialized tour. Just make sure you save time to treat yourself to a bite to eat at the Middleton Place Restaurant, where the menu is inspired by traditional low country cuisine and features items like shrimp and grits and collard greens.
According to most reviewers, however, the real reason to visit Middleton Place is to see the gardens. Modeled after traditional French gardens, the 65-acre grounds are peppered with camellias, azaleas, magnolias and myrtle throughout the year.
Monuments and Memorials, Sightseeing
You probably remember Fort Sumter as the place where the first shot of the Civil War was fired, back in 1861. Today, you can see for yourself where all the action happened by taking a ferry to the actual fort. Take your time exploring the thick stone caverns, which still house several Civil War-era cannons. You should also stop by Fort Sumter's small yet informative museum, which provides more in-depth information about the fort's role in the war. According to most Charleston visitors, Fort Sumter is a must-see, especially for kids and history buffs.
Fort Sumter National Monument is perched on a small island in Charleston Harbor several miles southwest of the city. Ferries to the monument depart from the Liberty Square Visitors Center and from Patriot's Point, which sits just opposite of the harbor in USS Yorktown State Park (parking is available at both departure points). Though the ferry ride is not the main attraction, most enjoyed it, calling it relaxing and a great way to see some of the area's dolphins. Ferries to the fort and ranger talks take place daily, but hours vary depending on the season. Guided tours aren't available at Fort Sumter, but you can listen to a 10-minute, ranger-led history discussion before heading out on your own self-guided tour; rangers and volunteers are available to answer any questions you may have.
Founded in 1773, the Charleston Museum is said to be the country's first museum, and with a focus on the South Carolina low country, it's a perfect place to learn about the area. There's a gallery devoted to natural history, a Civil War exhibition, an exhibit about Charleston silver and the interactive "Kidstory" area. Recent visitors were impressed with the museum's historical overview and said it is definitely worth a few hours of your time (especially if you're visiting in the summer and need a place to cool off). Reviewers were particularly impressed with the artifacts on display from the Revolutionary and Civil wars.
For more insight into Charleston's history, visitors can also head to the Joseph Manigault House, which was built in 1803 and offers insights into the lives of a wealthy, rice-planting family and the enslaved African Americans who worked there. The Heyward-Washington House, which was the home of Thomas Heyward Jr. – one of four South Carolina signers of the Declaration of Independence – is also open to visitors. Combo tickets to the museum and the historic homes are available.
The Nathaniel Russell House Museum
Constructed at the turn of the 19th century by Nathaniel Russell – a wealthy Southern merchant – this historic home is best known for its magnificent spiraling staircase, detailed furnishings and landscaped gardens. Unlike the Aiken-Rhett House, the Nathaniel Russell House has undergone an architectural and interior restoration.
Recent visitors said this is the place to go if you're looking for insight into the more lavish side of Southern comfort and were quite impressed with the detailed restoration. Tours, which last approximately half an hour, are docent-led and commence every 30 minutes, a highlight for many visitors. During the tour, you'll learn about the Russell family and the slaves who cared for the home.
H.L. Hunley Submarine
Tours, Monuments and Memorials, Sightseeing
Originally built in 1863 for the Confederate Army, the H.L. Hunley became the world's first successful combat submarine. In 1864, it was suddenly lost at sea until 1995 when it was discovered off the coast of Sullivan's Island. In 2000, the Hunley and the remains of its crew were brought to the surface for a detailed restoration at the old Charleston Naval Base.
Today, you can visit the base and tour the submarine; an experience that many recent visitors said is well worth your time, especially if you're interested in nautical history. The tour is a combination of guided and self-guided, with interactive exhibits and activities, which recent visitors found fascinating. Many also praised the expert guides. After a 20-minute overview, visitors can explore on their own.
Boone Hall Plantation & Gardens
Parks and Gardens, Historic Homes/Mansions

There Are No Good Reasons To Pay Money To Watch Tiger And Phil Horse Around On An Empty Golf Course
The day after Thanksgiving, when the typical golf fan (as imagined by the marketing agencies for companies that advertise during golf events) is dragging the artificial Christmas tree out from above his three-car garage while trying not to scratch his Buick Encore with the Werner ladder he got himself for Father's Day, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson will face off in a pay-per-view match play event for $9 million, winner take all. In an effort to differentiate the contest from all others, it's being billed as "The Match". Indeed, there have been many matches in many sports, but this ... this is The Match (presented by Capital One). It says so on the cable guide.

Duplicitous MoviePass Dog May Soon Be Out Of A Job
MoviePass, the subscription-based movie ticketing service whose continued existence defies the rules of free-market capitalism, has resorted to outright pandering. In the fifteen months since dropping their unlimited ticket rate to an absurd $9.95 per month, the company has severely limited viewings, increased prices, added clumsy photo requirements, banned repeat viewings, implemented surge pricing, and ended theater partnerships, not in that order and usually without warning. No business in the history of civilized society, I'm confident, has yanked their customers around as frequently and inconsiderately as MoviePass.

In the series premiere of NBC's Manifest, a commercial airplane takes off from Jamaica in April 2013, hits some turbulence, and lands in New York City in November 2018.

For this reason alone, the first act of Ghostbusters II is nothing short of an outrage.

One of my earliest memories of boxing on HBO was Naseem Hamed's much-hyped United States debut against Kevin Kelley in 1997. It's unlikely I would remember this match if not for Prince Naseem's absurd five-minute shadow dance behind a curtain, causing both my dad and curmudgeonly commentator Larry Merchant to grouse about the arrogance of athletes these days. Rewatching Hamed's entrance reminded me of some of the other wildly entertaining ring walks complemented by the equally entertaining comments of old grumps.

Tiger Woods won the Tour Championship (apparently stylized as TOUR Championship even though it's not an acronym) yesterday, his first victory since August 2013.

Apreciate that all traces are in acces log, any traces hace in error log, I supose that the Forbidden event writes i error log maybe?
Well, this is the case, the error handling when press Cancel button on certificate dialog box is broken in Apache 2.4, when the same code in Apache 2.2 works.
Many thanks in advance!

Which of CH4 NH3 H20 and PH3 has the highest boiling point?
Methane: -164 0C
Phosphine: - 87,7 0C
Ammonia: -33,34 0C
Water: +100 0C
What does boiling point mean?
Boiling point is the point water(H20) boils at. The time at which a substance is turning into a gas.
Would H20 or CCl4 be expected to have a higher melting point?
Boiling point you mean, and H20 has a higher BP
Is CH4 and H20 soluble or not?
To a limited degree yes.
How many molecules of CO2 and H20 will be produced when one molecule of CH4 is burnt?
CH4 + 2O2 = CO2 + 2H2O
CH4 plus O2 equals H20 plus?
The chemical reaction is: CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 CO2 is the carbon dioxide.
What would be regarded as an organic molecule H20 NaC1 NaOH CH4?
CH4 (methane) is organic molecule. Rest : H2O, NaCl and NaOH are inorganic
Why does CH4 and H20 have approximately the same angles but different shapes?
They do not have the same solid angles. Also, CH4 has five atoms while H2O has three.
Why NH3 and H20 can form coordinate covalent bond with H but CH4 cannot do so?
The reason why NH3 and H20 can form a coordinate covalent bond with H but CH4 cannot do so is because methane (CH4) only forms single bonds. Hydrogen (H) can form more than one bond.
How do dipole dipole forces affect the melting and boiling points of substances?
Think relationships here... really London Dispersion Force is like an acquaintance, Dipole Dipole is like boyfriend/girlfriend and Hydrogen Bonding is like marriage. Now out of the three London dispersion is the easiest to break the bonds, Di Pole Di pole are a little harder to break up and Hydrogen bonding are the hardest to break up the bonds. Hydrogen Bonding will always have the strongest bond. London dispersion is when for a split second their is a short attraction and doesn't last long. It is very weak therefore making this non- polar. Dipole Dipole means 2 opposite sides. Positive and negative charges. This molecule is a Polar molecule. Hydrogen Bonding is a Polar molecule which attaches itself to either N,O,or F. A melting point takes a low energy to melt so the bonds are weak. the higher the boiling temperature the stronger the bonds. Think H20. Melting is comparing how hard it is to separate the molecules. Same Concept. Ex.1.) CH4 / LiCl CH4 more soluable / LiCl low soluability CH4 low melting point / LiCL higher melting point CH4 low boiling point/ LiCL Higher boiling point CH4 London Dispersion / LiCl Dipole Dipole Example2: H2O / NaCl H2O high boiling point/ NaCl lower boiling point H2O Hydrogen bonding/ NaCl Dipole Dipol
What are the 3 different forms of water found on earth?
As in all things that are matter, they have three forms: steam (H2O boiling point is 212 degrees F), liquid (between boiling point and freezing point), and the freezing solid (H20 is 32 degree F).
Equation for the reaction of methane with water?
CH4(g) + H20(g) <----> CO(g) + 3H2(g)
How do you balance the following equation ch4 plus o2 ------- co2 plus h20?
CH4+O2 --- CO2+H2O... All that's missing - is the number 2 before the water molecule... CH4+O2 --- CO2+2H2O
What is a melting point of h20?
The melting point of h20 is any temperature above 0 degrees Centigrade, as it freezes at 0 degrees.
A pure liquid has a constant boiling point but a liquid with a constant boiling point is not necessarily pure Explain?
All pure liquids, such as water, H20, have constant boiling points at certain atmospheric pressures, which is helpful in determining the identity of an unknown liquid. Some liquids have constant boiling points that are not pure, such as nail polish remover, or ethyl acetate. Since it is a mixture of more than one pure liquid, it is not a pure liquid itself, but if always mixed in the same ratios, will have a constant boiling point.
If comparing a solid liquid or gas phase of H20 which has the highest entropy?
A gas has the highest entropy.
How would you describe the boiling points of water?
That is when the particles in H20 are at its maximum kinetic energy.
What does freezing point mean?
freezing point means the point water(H20) freezes at.
What is ch4 plus 02 equals c02 plus h20 balanced?
Ch4 + 2o2 -> co2 + 2h2o This moron site does not allow capitalization of chemical formulas to be written properly, so all letters here are capitals.
What is water that has been heated into a gas called?
It is called water vapor, and it has the same formula as water, H20 (g).*Water vapor at a temperature higher than its boiling point is called steam.
What is the melting point of h20?
H2O is water. The melting point of water is 0oC or 32oF
Why is h20 a liquid at room temp and ch4 is a gas?
everything depends on the Hydrogen bonding which creates long chains of molecules in water, but this is not possible in Methane.
What two compounds are made after burning methane?
After burning methane (CH4) into Oxygen (O2) you are left with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Dihydrogen Oxide (H20).
Which of the following reactions would result in decrease entropy?
n2(g)+3H2(g)>2NH3(g)
Differ between pure water and impure water?
Pure water is pure H20 while impure water is H20 with other chemicals etc. Also pure and impure water have different boiling points.
Write the balanced equation for Gaseous carbon monoxide reacts with hydrogen gas to form gaseous methane and liquid water?
CO(g)+3H2(g)>CH4(g) +H20(I)

Gold is an age-old symbol of perfection and refinement, vitality and radiance. In 2016, the brand reputed for American spirit and Swiss precision renews a proud tradition. Enter Jazzmaster Thinline Gold – giving a brilliantly timeless, reinforced identity to the iconic Jazzmaster line. It also represents a spot-on response to the market interest in a slimmer, sleeker automatic gold watch. This is a radiant new gold iteration of a line reputed for its classic, yet contemporary timepieces with clean, streamlined looks. It also offers a glowing example of how Jazzmaster models have earned their reputation for ensuring a seamless transition from the office to evening events.
The Jazzmaster collection fully lives up to its evocative name. It masters the art of offering infinite variations on its chosen themes. Its light and airy "improvisations" are backed by rock-solid expertise and technical prowess. The Hamilton Jazzmaster Thinline Gold, with its 18kt rose gold 40 mm case water-resistant to 3 bar, is the latest interpretation of a long line of themes combining innovation and modernity.
This watch artfully combines a timeless, silver-toned dial, lightly domed around the edge, with raised, applied indexes and razor-edge dauphine-shaped hands. The highly legible 6 o'clock date display is an unusual and much-appreciated feature on ultra-thin mechanical watches. Setting the perfect signature touch to this timepiece embodying classic yet contemporary elegance, the brand's thoroughly current new H symbol adorns both dial and crown. And for those who like to look at time from both sides, the mechanical automatic movement can be admired in action through the exhibition case-back.
The quintessential refinement of this exceptional piece culminates in a subtly retro fine-grain hand-sewn black calf leather strap. The latter is secured to the case by the collection's distinctively designed lugs. Issued in an exclusive limited edition of 1892 in tribute to the Hamilton founding date, the Jazzmaster Thinline Gold is the epitome of restrained elegance. It is bound to find its mark among men of good taste and watch lovers to whom Jazzmaster models prove especially irresistible.


It's been twenty years since Aaron McGruder's daily comic strip, The Boondocks, first appeared on Hitline.com in 1996. It's been ten years since it ended, after being syndicated in over 300 U.S. newspapers and transformed into a successful animated TV show. Twenty years since it started, ten years since it ended and–not much has changed.

He was the loving father of Stacy Ramirez (Huitzi Vazquez); loving grandfather of Cristina, Juliana and Nicholas; dear son of the late William and Elizabeth O'Donnell; fond brother of the late Patricia Cunningham, late Kathleen Schimpf, Peggy O'Donnell, late Eileen May, Michael (Louise) O'Donnell, late Timothy O'Donnell, late Billy (Nancy) O'Donnell; Maureen O'Donnell, Shawn O'Donnell, Terry (Sue) O'Donnell and Colleen (Rick) Millison.

I grew to know him well. I will miss him.

New D.C. Archbishop Wilton Gregory Addresses Abuse Scandal, Pledges Honesty
In his homily, the successor to Cardinal Donald Wuerl and former cardinal Theodore McCarrick acknowledged that 'we clerics and hierarchs have irrefutably been the source of the current tempest.'
Lauretta Brown
WASHINGTON — Archbishop Wilton D. Gregory was installed as the seventh archbishop of Washington Tuesday in a ceremony that comes at a turbulent time for the local Church under the cloud of his predecessors' sexual abuse and cover-up scandals.
The newly-installed archbishop addressed the issue head-on in his homily, promising those gathered that he would be committed to transparency about his failings.
"I want to be a welcoming shepherd who laughs with you whenever we can, who cries with you whenever we must, and who honestly confesses his faults and failings before you when I commit them, not when they are revealed," he said to loud applause from those gathered.
Archbishop Gregory's appointment follows Cardinal Donald Wuerl's resignation, which was accepted by Pope Francis last year after he came under scrutiny in the Pennsylvania Grand Jury report for his handling of sexual abuse allegations when he served as bishop of Pittsburgh from 1988 to 2006. Wuerl also faced criticism for initially denying that he knew of any sexual abuse claims against his predecessor Theodore McCarrick before later admitting that he had known of McCarrick's sexual behavior with seminarians.
Cardinal Wuerl gave remarks at the beginning of the installation calling Archbishop Gregory a "faith-filled pastor," and emphasizing that "Pope Francis sends us a bishop attuned to the signs of the times and endowed with great pastoral ability." Cardinal Wuerl's appearance in the procession entering and exiting the installation Mass was met with more subdued applause than that which greeted Archbishop Gregory.
'Waves of Unsettling Revelations'
Archbishop Gregory centered his homily on the Gospel account from Mark of Christ calming the stormy sea.
"We have been tossed about by an unusually turbulent moment in our own faith journeys recently and for far too long," he said. "We clerics and hierarchs have irrefutably been the source of the current tempest."
He referred to "waves of unsettling revelations" that "have caused even the heartiest among us to grow fearful."
"I confess that I don't possess the words to put every soul at ease, to assuage every fear, to lessen every pain," Archbishop Gregory acknowledged. "But I do remind you — even as I sometimes have to remind myself — that he is here. He is here when the seas are calm, and he is here during every moment of uncertainty, anger, fear and shame."
"He invites us to place our trust in him — not in trite and easy programs — but in him and him alone," he emphasized.
Archbishop Gregory did acknowledge Cardinal Wuerl as a "cherished friend" and "a true Christian gentleman" in his remarks.
The installation Mass, held at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, was presided over by the apostolic nuncio, Archbishop Christoph Pierre, and attended by eight cardinals, 50 bishops, 100 deacons and 300 priests.
The cardinals in attendance included Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago and Cardinal Joseph Tobin of New Jersey. Former apostolic nuncio Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò alleged in his bombshell letter on the sexual abuse scandal that the now-laicized McCarrick was instrumental in the appointments of Cardinals Cupich and Tobin to the office of cardinal.
Retired Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles was also in attendance and drew attention due to his own alleged cover-up of sexual abuse cases that led to his being relieved of his duties in 2013.
A Healing Process
Msgr. Charles Pope, pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Church in the archdiocese and a contributor to the Register, said that he felt Archbishop Gregory struck a good tone in his homily in light of the sexual abuse scandals plaguing the Church.
"I really thought it was a very appropriate homily," he said, "very beautiful, full of hope … he wasn't too dark about the past but he was clear about it and he's saying that the Lord's been with us the whole time."
Linda Simpson, a parishioner at Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian who attended the Mass, told the Register that there is a lot of "hurt" over the abuse scandal, but "as he said, we have to move forward and hopefully with him as the shepherd and Jesus as the Good Shepherd we can begin to heal and we can begin to walk in faith."
Shirley Austin, another parishioner at Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian, agreed that "this is the beginning of the healing process for a lot of people."
Archbishop Gregory, who is 71, is the first African-American archbishop in charge of the Archdiocese of Washington.
Valerie Washington, the executive director of the National Black Catholic Congress, told the Register that her organization is "thrilled" to have Archbishop Gregory in D.C. and that he is "a wonderful man." She described him as "very transparent," adding that "in addition to all the abilities that he has, he's very pastoral, which is what the people need."
Regarding his mention of the abuse scandal in his homily, Washington said she liked "the way he addressed it because it's on many people's minds and he knows what he's stepping into with his predecessors."
She emphasized Archbishop Gregory's past experience as president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops from 2001 to 2004, when the national sexual abuse scandal first emerged into public light, and his work implementing the Dallas Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People.
"He's dealt with this before so he was just being transparent he just wasn't going to sugarcoat anything," Washington said. "Everybody knows what's happened."
Lauretta Brown is the Register's Washington-based correspondent.

There's a multitude of ways you can join thousands across the state in gathering data and informing policy to protect your local resources.
Correction: This story has been updated to correct the spelling of Chris Acy's last name and his email address.
This Sunday, people across Wisconsin will get involved in activities for Earth Day — teaming up to clean their local waterways, attending events at nature centers and libraries and more.
For those looking to get their hands dirty on Earth Day and beyond, there is one way Wisconsinites are working to take care of their natural resources and further our understanding of the world around us: citizen science.
"This is a tremendous way for people to make a difference in the world around them and a great way to meet new people," said Eva Lewandowski, program coordinator for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource's Citizen-Based Monitoring Program.
The DNR has over 12,000 citizen volunteers across the state. Many volunteer through the University of Wisconsin-Extension or local action groups. Some collect water samples from rivers, streams and lakes. Some monitor the frog and toad population, tracking turtles to inform policies that protect them from becoming roadkill. Some scout for rare plants.
The data they gather informs how the state responds in directing monetary resources and enables the DNR to have the data it needs to make decisions to protect the environment.
It also provides a statewide view of Wisconsin that wouldn't be possible otherwise — empowering scientists and members of the public to compare their region to the rest of the state and country to advocate for a better, healthier world.
"How do we get people excited about our world?" Justin Hougham, an environmental education specialist at UW-Extension and director of Upham Woods Outdoor Learning Center in Wisconsin Dells. "Citizen science is a great way to do that."
1. Check out the DNR's website.
Bees and birds and plants and turtles and frogs, oh my!
The DNR has 20 ongoing citizen science projects that benefit from everyday citizens investigating the world around them. The programs are open to any skill level and any level of commitment.
You can do something as simple as reporting a robin you saw to the Wisconsin Bird Breeding Atlas or, more experienced birders will head out into the night looking for nocturnal birds, Lewandowski said.
Some volunteers just sit on their back porch collecting data on the frog calls they hear. Volunteers in Oshkosh recently discovered a rare orchid that was threatened in their environment and partnered with the DNR to relocate it.
There are many efforts across Wisconsin to protect local rivers, lakes and streams.
The Water Action Volunteers is a statewide stream and river monitoring team, coordinated by the DNR and UW-Extension.
They have over 600 volunteers, said UW-Extension's Peggy Compton WAV's statewide coordinator. There's a waiting list to get trained.
Participants are given instruction and equipment to gather readings on water temperature, transparency, the amount of dissolved oxygen, what bugs live in the river, the speed of the stream and the health of the environment around it.
They take those readings monthly — from a stream in their back year or any where else. The data goes into the DNR's surface water integrated monitoring system, which lets anyone look up information on the rivers and streams. And you can make a day of it.
"It's a fun thing to do," said Bob Jozwowski, who coordinates his local organization, Central Wisconsin Trout Unlimited's involvement in the program. "Besides being important and providing this data it's a social thing. ... It's a good way to convene with nature."
For those closer to the Winnebago system, the Fox-Wolf Watershed Alliance coordinates several initiatives including stream monitoring starting in May, survey research on aesthetic monitoring of waterways, several efforts to stop the spread of invasive species, educating boaters and much, much more. They also have outreach volunteers, who educate the community about water issues.
"Our waters belong to all of us, and it's our responsibility to take care of them," Kelly Reyer, the alliance's outreach coordinator.
Learn more about the Central Wisconsin Trout Unlimited at cwtu.org.
3. Help monitor specific animals near you.
If you're a northern Wisconsinite who loves the loon, Northland College's LoonWatch is for you.
The program, which has over 430 volunteers in 27 counties, has been going strong for 40 years — and they've never missed a year, said program coordinator Erica LeMoine.
The sheer amount of data that they've collected in that time provides an unbeatable view on the health of the loon population. It also tells researchers about the health of the overall environment of the waters these birds live on.
There's a strong human community around the loons too, LeMoine said. She notes how volunteers come together each year for a "thank you" picnic and spend hours sharing stories with one another from their time tracking a single loon family's survival through the mating season, watching the little chicks grow.
"I think people really enjoy learning how easy it is," Le Moine said. "And they get a better appreciation for science and research."
And for those who love gadgets and bats, UW-Extension also has a bat monitoring program through its Upham Woods Outdoor Learning Center, where people, schools and local organizations can borrow easy-to-use mobile equipment to hear bats communicate and more.
Their bat monitoring program provides data and recordings to the DNR, but people have also used the center's tech to write up their own reports. Since bats are under threat from habitat loss and disease, this type of monitoring is especially important to inform any measures to protect them in Wisconsin, Hougham said.
But the program's broad reach (they can mail their kits anywhere), and the fact that people can use the center's tools to investigate more than just bats, means there is great potential for creativity and discovery, too.
"Sometimes, we learn a lot from just being open and hearing how people are generally curious about the world," Hougham said.

Anwar-Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah personal ties will help expedite implementation of Malaysia-Brunei programmes
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Jan 25 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim believes that his personal ties with Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah will help expedite the implementation of the various plans and programmes involving Malaysia and Brunei.
"When two country leaders have a very strong friendship…and have plans for both countries…they can always check the progress, and the implementation will be expedited.
"His Majesty has been watching and following our development (in Malaysia). Friendship is important, and ours has been good and…kind of personal. Whenever I'm in distress, His Majesty always shows concern," he told the Malaysian media at the end of his two-day official visit to Brunei today.
Anwar said their strong bond was prominently visible during the visit.
"I can feel something special there. His Majesty also knows that our strong personal and family ties will help strengthen the bilateral ties between our two countries," he said.
Earlier today, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah granted an audience to Anwar at Istana Nurul Iman here where they also had a four-eye meeting.
The Prime Minister and the Sultan of Brunei also witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), between the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA) and the Brunei Investment Agency (BIA).
Anwar said success stories created and made possible by the existing relationship between the two countries proved that the strength of their bilateral ties is at the top level.
He said during the four-eye meeting, various matters were discussed such as the efforts to intensify border development and increase investments between the two countries.
"These are for the people. The businesses, the investments are important. His Majesty wants the cooperation with BIA to be expedited so that we can explore more opportunities for investments.
"His Majesty also emphasises the possibility of expediting issues related to oil exploration, involving Petronas if necessary, for the areas to be made by the Joint Development Authority," he said.
The Prime Minister said apart from that, in the matter of Indonesia's new capital, Nusantara, it is hoped that there will be a synergy of Malaysia's interests, especially on the borders of Sabah and Sarawak.
"…involving additional allocations, tourism traffic, the movement of three countries (Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei), the Sarawak government's incentive to continue the land route. His Majesty is excited and confident that we can enhance the ties," he said.
Meanwhile, Anwar said the Sabah and Sarawak governments raised the role of Bandar Seri Begawan as an international aviation centre and hoped to increase flights to Bandar Seri Begawan as a hub for the sub-region.
