Review: Refine and Accelerate
2008-03-04 20:34:00 Not long ago I wrote about the GyroSwing which will soon be released by SLKZ golf. They also happen to offer a few other training aid products, a couple of which caught my eye: The Refiner and Swing Accelerator. The refiner is a hinged driver which works on getting your golf swing on plane. The Swing Accelerator, on the other hand, is a weighted club which targets the distance part of your game. We will have a look at both of these devices today and see if they can help your game.

Democrats refine the circular pointing game to an art form
2008-01-14 18:56:00 Sam Stein at HuffPo: Obama’s presidential campaign has prepared a detailed memo listing various instances in which it perceived Sen. Hillary Clinton’s campaign to have deliberately played the race card in the Democratic primary. Yeah, no shock for that. But notice, please, that Obama’s camp doesn’t mention hi’s just as guilty of it…. and possibly guilty of sexism, as well. It’s almost amusing, this business of watching the Democrts beat up on themselves and the MSM doing what it canto avoid all these issues. As Surber says: 40 years of victimhood politics comes home to roost in the Hill vs. Obama race, er, battle. They have found the enemy, and they is… err them. Or something. Now the big thing is how to blame all this in George Bush, if they can. That’s the big escape valve, if anyone figures out exactly how to do that. But it’ll happen… wait and see.

New refinery to be built in South Dakota to process Canadian crude
2007-12-17 18:53:00 When people think of South Dakota, assuming they think of the state at all, they probably remember the Black Hills, or Mount Rushmore. That may soon change. The largest supplier of crude oil to the United States is Canada and the majority of that oil comes from the oil sands of Alberta. Hyperion Resources has just begun the process of getting approval to build a new oil refinery in Elk Point, South Dakota specifically to process that oil. The first phase of the Hyperion Energy Center is planned to refine 400,000 barrels of oil sands crude per day. The plant will produce ultra-low-sulfur gasoline and diesel fuels. The refinery is designed to be highly integrated, re-processing many of byproducts of the refining process to produce other necessary inputs. For example, petroleum coke from the distillation process will be used to make hydrogen, electricity and steam. The refinery is also being designed to incorporate the latest pollution control technology as well as carbon capture and s...

Refinery29 Winter Playlist
2007-11-21 00:14:00 This time of year can be fairly sluggish as far as new albums go. You have to be paying close attention to catch the sonic gems. But, rest assured, they're here in abundance—you just need to know where to look. Refinery29 has compiled a Winter Playlist that has a mix of some of our all-time favorite artists peppered with a few new discoveries we've been into as of late. Some highlights… Radiohead: In Rainbows A virtually flawless album from one of our generation's true musical treasures. Like a more organic re-recording of Kid A material—electric piano, strings, drums, and Thom Yorke's inimitable voice. It's Radiohead, what more can we say? Vampire Weekend: Vampire Weekend There has been much buzz about these preppy Columbia grads, with their top-siders and Lacoste polos. But enough about their style—they make great Paul Simon-influenced jangly pop that discusses the pitfalls of dorm life, vacationing on Cape Cod, and the Oxford Comma. Cloying? Perhaps...

Isla Refinery , Willemstad - Curacao
2007-11-03 15:06:00 Location : 2 Miles off Curacao - 12 03 N, 068 54 WBefore I begin, a disclaimer. The following has been told to me by the people attending the vessel such as the pilots and the agents so it might actually be the truth. I will need to verify the facts once I get down, but till then, here's the story as I heard it:-I am right now a couple of miles from the Island of Curacao, fueling up for the long voyage up to the West coast of Africa & the place looks as beautiful as I remember it. The sun is out & the Island looks every bit as inciting as it is made out to beby the tourist broucher. But the last time I was in Curacao, I saw the most distressing sight to be seen in a tourist hot spot. Right in the middle of the Willemstad Bay, at any time of the day, you can see a huge oil slick floating around for all to see. This was explained tome by a story that does not seem so shocking these days. The Island of Curacao really gained any prominence only in the second world war, when the...

Step-wise Refinement
2007-10-25 23:25:00 Refinement is a top-down design strategy. The programming language level details are reached by successively refining procedure design. Each step in the refinement process decomposes design decisions to an elementary level of detail. Refinement postpones implementation details for as long as possible. Each step in the refinement process is an expansion of the previous steps.The first step in the stepwise refinement is from the requirements specification derived during analysis. The requirements specification gives a broad overview of the issues that must be addressed by the system. The next step is the design stage that works on how the uses can be solved. The design stage is composed of various stages that we saw in the earlier section. Each stage describes the system in greater detail compared to the earlier stage.

Western Refining is the best play on Oil Refiners as the Oil Refining Seaso
2007-10-14 22:31:00 In terms of stock price action, oil refiners like Tesoro (TSO) and Valero (VLO) typify the oil refining cycles throughout a given year. I looked back at the last 3 years (2004-2007), and here is what I learnt. Oil refiners like VLO and TSO, bottomed out typically in Sept/Oct. They ran up until June, and then spent 3 months going down. The cycle repeated again in Sept/Oct.For example, if you bought TSO in the 3rd week of Oct and sold in the 4th week of June the following year, you made approximately 60.3%, 11.1% and 104.5% in 2004, 2005 and 2006 respectively.If you owned VLO during the same period, you made approximately 96.9%, 17.3% and 45.7% respectively. 2005 seems like a lacklustre year only because of Katrina. Katrina hit the U.S shores in late August, and that triggered a 14.6% and 21.4% move in TSO and VLO shares just on Sept 2nd. I suspect that had those hurricanes not hit us, these stocks would have declined in August and Sept similar to 2004 and 2006.Now that the history le...

The ultra-modern compression-ignition engine with Common Rail fuel injection system and piezo injectors impresses not only with its sheer power, but also, and even more so, with its remarkable efficiency. On average, the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI requires a mere 9.8 litres of diesel for every 100 kilometres travelled. This means that the new version needs 0.7 litres less than its predecessor, despite the significant increase in power output and torque. Under the bonnet of the new Audi Q7 3.0 TDI is the very latest series production diesel engine the brand has to offer. The latest generation of the V6 celebrated its debut in the A5 Coupé and recently also became available in the new A4 saloon. It produces a peak torque of 550 Nm, more than 90% of which is availabl...

I got the following from a friend in an email message this morning and it encouraged me, so I thought that I'd pass it on. Malachi 3:3 says: "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining SilverAs she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest...
