Rankine Cycle Question
2012-01-30 17:17:00 Common understanding of the rankine cycle is that heat is converted to work during the expansion stage of the cycle. This seems somewhat counter-intuitive. Stated another way, it appears that molecular movement (heat) is being converted to work (resulting in less molecular movement) as a change in v

NEW INTERMEDIATE CYCLE CONFIRMED
2011-11-07 00:00:00 Gold has now confirmed that an intermediate bottom was set on September 26. The double bottom at $1600 is a powerful basing pattern that should generate a test of the $2000 level by sometime in December. For reasons covered in the nightly reports I don’t really expect gold to push much above the $2000 level during this particular intermediate cycle. Also for reasons discussed in the nightly reports I think the mining stocks, which have been unloved for the last year, are probably going to be the recipients of most of the hot money during this intermediate cycle. Both silver and gold have already generated parabolic, or semi parabolic moves. I think it’s time for a big rally . . . → Read More: NEW INTERMEDIATE CYCLE CONFIRMED

Winter in Copenhagen ...on bicycle, Cycle Chic style
2010-11-26 11:12:00 With plenty of snow on the ground this week in Copenhagen, it's certainly worth giving a little shout-out to his fantastic Winter cycling in Copenhagen video (right below - it was made last year, but it's just as fresh as ever).We've mentioned before that we're big fans of Mikael Corville-Andersen's Copenhagen Cycle Chic website. Since moving to Copenhagen, personally I've never been phased by a bit of snow when it comes to hopping on my bike and cycling around the city. And I'm far from the only one. You could call it a another aspect of Danish culture, I suppose. Copenhagen January Cycling - Your Country from Copenhagenize on Vimeo.

Review "The Ring Cycle": This Ring IS a Prize!
2010-03-05 22:55:00 Four operas, four nights, 15+ hours, sung in German with projected English subtitles, the traditional production of The Ring Cycle in an opera house is the original dramatic television mini-series. One opera, one day, 6 hours, spoken in English with rock music accompaniment, The Building Stage's The Ring Cycle on stage is a Netflix marathon in high-def. It took over twenty-five years for Richard Wagner to complete his Der Ring des Nibelungen, a collection of four operas: Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried and Götterdämmerung. It's the story of a ring with special powers. The ring is stolen, bartered, pledged and eventually returned. It's what happens in between when gods and mortals and creatures compete for power. Greed and lust lead to dwarves gone bad, giants killing kin, a brother marrying his sister and gods cursing abuses. With the combined genius of the creative team at The Building Stage, this world premiere of The Ring Cycle is a concise, visual explosion of entert...

Upgrade cycle boosts Dell (DELL)
2009-12-11 14:00:00 "There is a new game changer in the works: the Windows 7 release," says Toby Smith, who believes we could be in the early stages of a tech recovery. In his industry-leading ChangeWave Investing, he adds, "Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) will be one of the biggest beneficiaries of the Windows 7 upgrade cycle.""In a recent speech, Dell CEO Michael Dell joined the chorus of top tech leaders when he said, 'I think there is a very powerful refresh cycle that is coming.'"Well, you don't have to believe the CEO of Dell. The ChangeWave Alliance (and its 25,000 members on industry's front line) has been telling us that the tech recovery is building momentum -- and it looks like we could just be in the early stages of a big blast.

How to Cycle A New Aquarium
2009-09-07 07:57:00 One important factor of success in keeping an aquarium is noticing the nitrogen cycle in your aquarium. Basically a nitrogen cycle is powered by beneficial bacterias that will process the waste ammonia from your fish and convert it into nitrites and then into relatively harmless nitrates.If you add fish to an uncycled tank, then sometimes the fish result in fin rot, ick and other common fish diseases. Fish can be seen gasping at the top of the aquarium. That is probably because of excessive ammonia in the water that cause fish stress.The only way to over come this is to wait until there are sufficient numbers of bacteria to convert the ammonia into nitrates. There are a few things that can be done to encourage the growth of the bacteria.The traditional method to cycle a new aquarium is to add a few ?hardy? fish that will produce ammonia wastes to encourage bacteria growth. This method of cycling is very stressful for the fish. Many become stressed, damaged or simply die during the ...

The tech cycle of failure and rebirth
2009-08-09 02:51:00 This year has been especially rough for gadgets and tech in general. Murphy's Law has struck not once, not twice, but a number of times and I put it all down to a cycle of life that everything follows. I lost most of my equipment to power damage a couple of months ago. More recently, I let out my anger and frustrations on the laptop for the last time. Right after doing an SR (long story, but to cut it short, it means bringing one's fist down very hard) on the keyboard, the drive made a click and I witnessed my work grind to a complete halt. I usually keep enough backups to minimize disruption or downtime, but I was already running in degraded mode with the PC knocked out of service. I had only a couple hours to be fully functional and get back online so I took the fast, but expensive route and got a new power supply, LCD and video card for the PC. Was back to work in a couple of hours, but it cost me and also taught me some cruel lessons. There is certain data that you usually ...

Cycle expert turns bullish
2009-03-19 05:00:00 "Investor sentiment had gotten extremely bearish, which is always the case at significant lows," says Sy Harding (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2940) who recently turned bullish. In Street Smart Report (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2940), he looks at two Dow ETFs."On the technical side, the major market indexes were extremely ‘oversold’ beneath their long-term 200-day moving averages. Short-selling had been at a feverish pitch."Once a ‘short-covering rally’ begins – and that is how most rallies off of oversold conditions begin – the rising market begins to entice short-term traders in on hopes for quick profits from at least a short-term rally of a few days. And the rally continues."But whether the rally can continue still further into an intermediate-term rally of several months duration depends on whether institutional investors (large pension plans, insurance companies, etc.) have reason to believe ...
