2008 AutoTronics Taipei: Participants from IT industry to participate COMPUTEX uncertainly

February 17, 2018 · Uncategorized · (No comments)

Friday, April 11, 2008

Since the AutoTronics Taipei was held from 2006, companies from electronic and automobile-related industries steadily made their stages and a good complementary in this trade show.

Before the first holding in 2006, because of the establishment of Car Electronics Pavilion in 2005 TAITRONICS Autumn (Taipei International Electronic Autumn Show), it (the pavilion) ever became a hot topic in these 2 industries. And eventually, Yulon Group recruited their sub-companies grouping their own pavilion to showcase automobile parts, accessories, and applications.

Currently, automobile navigation, mobile entertainment, and road safety, were included in modern automotive devices. But in a keynote speech of TARC Pavilion, Jamie Hsu (Consultant of Ministry of Economic Affairs of the Republic of the China) pointed out several threats and opportunities on the automotive industry, his words also echoed a notable quote by Yi-cheng Liu (Chairman of Taiwan Transportation Vehicle Manufacturers’ Association): “The automobile industry shouldn’t be monopolized by a company or its own industry. If this industry want to be grown up, it [the industry] should do more optimizations and transformations with the other related industries like IT and electronic.”

Although some participants like Renesas, Fujitsu, MiTAC, TomTom NV, and Agilent ever participated in Taipei IT Month, CeBIT, or Computex Taipei, but there were varied comments for participation on Computex 2008.

	Computex 2008 will do a significant growth, of course. But we [Aglient] still consider to cooperate with Intel in a forum rather than showcasing in Computex.

	We [the MiTAC Group] will appoint different sub-companies to participate in different trade shows by different industries. That’s why we showcase the same products in different shows by different sub-companies.

Renesas Technology, a participant of Computex 2007, won’t showcase in Computex 2008, but Fujitsu and TomTom both declared to participate in the 2008 Taipei IT Month.

Generally in the automobile industry, progressively conformed by the other industries, its success should depend on collaborations between different and similar industries because “not any company can do any monopoly in any industry” even though the automobile industry will become a “trillion industry” not only in Taiwan.

Bush’s Katrina statement contradicted by emerging evidence

February 17, 2018 · Uncategorized · (No comments)

Thursday, March 2, 2006

Recently emerging evidence seems to contradict a statement by United States President George W. Bush during Hurricane Katrina. He stated in an interview with ABC on September 1st that, “I don’t think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees”.

One of the first items to emerge, a video obtained by the Associated Press, shows footage of Bush during a video-conference received at his ranch in Crawford, Texas, on August 29, 2005, 19 hours before landfall of Hurricane Katrina. During the briefing, Director of the National Hurricane Center Max Mayfield warned, “I don’t think anyone can tell you with any confidence right now whether levees will be topped or not, but there is obviously a very, very great concern”.

In addition, Michael D. Brown, then director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), reported that he had spoken with President Bush twice in the morning and that the president was asking about reports that the levees had been breached.

Brown would state later on CNN that, “There’s no question in my mind he probably had those reports (about breaches in the levees), because we were feeding in the Homeland Security Operations Center, into the White House sit room, all of the information that we were getting. So he had to have had that information. Plus, I think the president knew from our earlier conversations that that was one of my concerns, that the levees could actually breach”.[1]

In July 2004, the Federal Emergency Management Agency completed an exercise called “Hurricane Pam”, which, dealt with the scenario of a direct hit on New Orleans by a hurricane with 120 mph winds (a Category 3). It resulted in “10 to 20 feet of water within the City of New Orleans,” according to January 24 congressional testimony by the president of the company that designed the Hurricane Pam exercise.[2]

A report FEMA sent to the White House Situation Room on August 29th, they cited death and destruction anticipated by the “Hurricane Pam” exercise and warned that Katrina was likely to be worse. “Exercise projection is exceeded by Hurricane Katrina real-life impacts,” they stated. Furthermore, “The potential for severe storm surge to overwhelm Lake Pontchartrain levees is the greatest concern for New Orleans. Any storm rated Category 4 on the Saffir-Simpson (hurricane) scale will likely lead to severe flooding and/or levee breaching. This could leave the New Orleans metro area submerged for weeks or months”.[3]

When the report was released, Hurricane Katrina was thought to be a Category 4 as of landfall (though after analysis, it’s power at landfall would be downgraded to a Category 3).[4]

White House officials previously clarified Bush’s earlier comment, saying that the president was referring to the hours after Katrina swept through and news reports as of August 30th suggested the city had “dodged a bullet”, which led to surprise when reports reached them of the levee breaches.[5][6] Contrasting this was the August 30th broadcast of NBC’s Today, NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams reported at 7:05 a.m. ET, “There has been a huge development overnight … the historic French Quarter, dry last night and it is now filling with water. This is water from nearby Lake Pontchartrain; the levees failed overnight.”[7]

The Engagement Ring of Today!

In 1477, Archduke Maximilian of Austria commissioned the very first diamond engagement ring on record for his betrothed, Mary of Burgundy. The ring is presented as a gift by a partner to their prospective spouse when they propose marriage. It is a formal agreement to future marriage.

When it comes to famous engagement rings, there are diamonds, and then there are diamonds, just in Jacqueline Kennedys engagement ring where the diamond and an emerald surrounded by more diamonds. From famous Queen of England, Lady Diana Spencer, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Mia Farrow from Frank Sinatra, to a lot more famous personality around the world. Engagement rings made it statement worldwide.

Over the past decades or so, a phenomenon has begun to emerge in the engagement ring world, whereby couples purposely try to go for the most original and unconventional colors available wedding engagement stones. Such commonly seen right now are black diamonds, pearls and even uniquely design wood that challenge the long-established diamond and gold props, which actually to a certain degree is successful.

One of the noticeable and latest aspirant right now and certainly growing are the turquoise gemstones used for engagement rings. This stones has long been a favorite for those who are seeking for unique and sophistication; it has its elegant look. Turquoise gemstones have a very special role in our history and it passes on through stories and legends.

Turquoise to both a color and gemstones, the turquoise usually denotes a greenish hue, though there are several more or less blue-tinted variations, a pure turquoise is the same color as the gemstones it derives its name from. Other shades include medium turquoise, dark turquoise and pearl mystic turquoise, although, these are seen less frequently. Historically, the word derives from the French for Turkish, a connection justified by the fact that most turquoise stones were originally imported from Turkey, later own, this blue stone become quite famous among the rich classes in Western culture.

Today, turquoise continues to retain its popularity and reputation as a symbol of sophistication, class and wealth, which might explain the popularity of turquoise engagement rings among the fashionable couples. The visual impact of this hue when worn on the finger, either with or without any accompanying stone is undeniable, relatively uncommon for an engagement band which makes it different among people looking to set themselves apart from the usual gold and diamond crusader.

In ancient time and culture, turquoise gemstones were traditionally linked with good fortune and protector. For couples looking to protect the good health of the relationship and adorn it with luck might be interested in getting one of these stones to top their lovely-colored band. It comes as no surprise then that turquoise is on the rise within the engagement ring world. Its unique combination of visual appeal and mysterious meaning continues to captivate couples around the world.

As of this time in this changing world, we cant predict the future, but we do expect that some of the trends were seeing in engagement rings today will continue for quite some time. Couples wanting an engagement ring thats unique and says something about their style, whether that means antique, a custom design, or a classic look that theyre given a little tweak by choosing a different color of metal or an unexpected gemstones, we are confident that the trend shows no signs of turquoise of slowing down.

February 15, 2018 · Domestic Services · (No comments)

By Josh Neumann

Believe it or not, your kitchen lighting design is one of the most important components to your overall kitchen look and feel, but it’s something all too many people don’t pay nearly enough attention to. Depending on the kind of kitchen you want, your lighting design can make all the difference in your interior design being a success or failure.

Unfortunately, many people spend literally thousands of dollars to have their kitchen redesigned. They go to many different stores, use free kitchen design software and kitchen design online websites, get thousands of kitchen design ideas, and spend days picking out their cabinets, wall color, floor design, drawers and appliances.

However, they generally forget about the incredible difference that lighting can make. Without the right lighting, all your design efforts will be useless.

Many people end their long days after work by working in a cellar like kitchen with minimum lightening. Kitchen lighting design is going to save you from such poor working conditions.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0wQh7ijOcY[/youtube]

Choose a bright paint for your kitchen walls and a light color floor as a fact bright color emits light and dark absorbs it. Divide your kitchen into a working area and seating area.

Your working area or task area should be well illuminated and your seating area should have pleasant lighting. Task areas can be over the cook top, over your sink or countertop where you cut vegetables.

Fluorescent tubes or shadow less tubes are best suited in these areas as they give ample amount of light needed for cooking, cleaning and reading out from recipes. Hanging pendent style lights and under cabinet lighting can be fixed as well.

Someone seated in one of your dining chairs could be admiring your clean china and crystal glasses inside a glass cupboard in accent lighting. Collectible porcelain or artwork anything you want to show off will not find any place better than this cupboard with your accent lighting effect.

Feature yourself seated to have dinner. You would definitely not want a tube burning brightly over your head. You need ambient lighting or pleasant lighting. There are varieties to choose from. Different colored lightings or shadow lights can be used for this place. Welcoming guests in your dining area in such a light would be brilliant.

Try keeping the window open for daylight in your kitchen. If you have placed a potted palm or fern in your kitchen a little bit of sunlight would do wonders for your plants. Finally, if at all possible, implement as many windows into your kitchen as possible, because the more windows, the more natural light you let in, which is obviously the best kind of light available.

Kitchen lighting is not just about necessity. It is about comfort, radiance and efficiency. Most likely, you probably want your kitchen to have as bright and cheerful a look as possible, but this just isn’t possible without a good lighting.

Hopefully this information will give you some ideas to implement for your kitchen and give it the look and feel you want. With kitchen lighting design in place you are in for a bright time ahead.
