Rockwell Retro Encabulatormodio interaction of magneto reluctance and capacitance directives

Leave a reply

Here is finally somebody explaining the unilateral phase detractor and  explains how cardinal grammeters can be synchronized – something all of you engineers are capable of enjoying. Is there somebody who could transcribe this whole training session so that I can add it to this article in order for others to read along and not miss the tiniest nugget of engineering wisdom.

Before this video did you ever fully understand modio interaction of magneto reluctance and capacitance directives – now you do!

Update: I looked around the inter-web for the wording of the video, to bring it to you so you might be able to memorize it – but what did I find?

There is the Turboencabulator on Wikipedia!

Update 2: And finally somebody nice did transcribe this video. Here it is in it’s full glory…

Here at Rockwell Automation’s world headquarters, research has been proceeding to develop a line of automation products that establishes new standards for quality, technological leadership, and operating excellence. With customer success as our primary focus, work has been proceeding on the crudely conceived idea of an instrument that would not only provide inverse reactive current, for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of automatically synchronizing cardinal grammeters. Such an instrument comprised of Dodge gears and bearings, Reliance Electric motors, Allen-Bradley controls, and all monitored by Rockwell Software is Rockwell Automation’s “Retro Encabulator”.

Now, basically the only new principle involved is that instead of power being generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, it’s produced by the modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive diractance. The original machine had a base plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan.

The lineup consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzelvanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that sidefumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semiboloid slots of the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the ‘up’ end of the grammeters. Moreover, whenever fluorescence score motion is required, it may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle arm to reduce sinusoidal depleneration.

The Retro Encabulator has now reached a high level of development, and it’s being successfully used in the operation of milford trenions. It’s available soon; wherever Rockwell Automation products are sold.

You watch a movie, take a dump and you are home

In an interview on the Conan show, comedian Louis CK complains about today’s generation who can not appreciate all the great things they have, complaining that they have to wait for a moment for the cell phone to connect while he remembers the days of a rotary phone where you  could only make the call standing NEXT to the phone.

As the headline describes this is how you get from New York to Los Angeles, while some hundred years ago it took 30 years – OK, he is exaggerating a little bit here – maybe.

Enjoy…

OK – they don’t want to embedd this video –
so just double click to go to YouTube and watch it there.

The Power of Thank you Revisited

1 Reply

A little while back I reported on Laura Trice’s TED talk about the importance and power of thank you, of validation. Delivered right a thank you looks really simple but as with all very true facts it appears so simple yet is often so hard to attain. This talk is a very good demonstration of what it teaches, look at the ease with which Ms. Trice walks the talk at the end. I personally don’t know many people who can blow you away with a simple thank you like she did.

Today another video came across my desk that actually caused me to revisit Ms. Trice’s talk. It delivers the same message in form of a short film and be prepared to be moved…

Colbert Roasts President Bush – 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner

Leave a reply

This video is a few years old but I still love it so much that I finally have to put it up here for all of you who have not seen it yet.

When I first saw it I was really amazed that Mr. Colbert would do this right into Bush’s face. And seeing the prez’s face was just great. So enjoy Steven Colber’s praise of President George W. Bush…

I looked all around the video sharing sites and the best version of this video was on Google Video but unfortunately for this video the embedding was not working, so I could not bring this to you here, but if you want to go there and watch it bigger and better please go to Colbert Roasts Bush on Google Video. YouTube has the video also but with bad sound and split in two parts. The only one I found to enbed was on Vimeo which you see above.

Rick Mercer Explans Canada

Leave a reply

Rick Mercer from the Rick Mercer Report at the Canadian Broadcast Corporation CBC explains all you wanted to know about Canada, but were afraid to ask.

I would love to embed the video here but the CBC does not allow this so you only get a picture of the video you will see and when you click you will see a new window or tab and watch the video there. Then you either get lost on Rick Mercer’s pages (which is OK) or you come back here – this is the freedom of the internet, yes?

I just wished somebody would create a lecture like this about the US – it could not be any more difficult as we don’t even have a queen, and once we have this all laid out, there would never be a confusion again.

Anyway, here is Rick Mercer…

Save a Hundered Bucks on a New Car

Leave a reply

If you would hear somebody announcing that very exictedly “You can save a full hundred bucks on your new Ford F150 truck!” The only thing to do is drive all across town to the dealer Joe Cheapcars and pick it up, you would probably not share this enthusiasm much.

Hundred bucks on a car – that’s not much.

But now take that miter saw that you alwasy wanted to have for your weekend projects. So far, at $150 it was not quite justifyable considering the number of weekend projects you actually do. But now James Toolshack over in Othertown just 30 miles across the river has it for only 50 bucks!

So as soon as the weekend is here it off to the Toolshack to finally get that miter saw. We saved a full hundred bucks!

So, what’s the difference between the hundred bucks save on the car and on the miter saw? Nothing as far as the money in the wallet is concerned.

Let’s listen to Dan Gilbert who gives us some really good insight into this subject…

Changing the World with Music

“Change” seems to be all the hype right now. Even the presidential campaign was won with this slogan. There seems to be so much people don’t like and want to change (or have changed for them) that simply using ‘change’ as a buzz word will get attention.

Now mostly change is not really what we want. Maybe we have something in mind that is so far beyond everything we can imagine, that simple an end of the current situation looks appealing. But, in my own experience, the universe has a strange kind of humor. It tries to comply but if the goal of the change is not clearly specified we will get a change but the new situation might not be what we really had in mind – hidden back there in the crevices, afraid to verbalize.

Let’s take a look at politics right now – we will have a president that will implement change – he did not say what the change will be so this is a pretty smart move as now everybody has a very own version of that change he or she envisions in mind and thinks that’s what will come. And if that’s not what will get implemented then it becomes obvious why not – because it was never even promised. And something is always changed, so the promise is kept.

If we want a situation to be different we have to be specific in what we want the outcome of the change to be otherwise the change itself will be the outcome and this is certainly not what we want. It reminds me of the sign at the bar stating “Tomorrow free Beer” – obviously attractive so that patrons return, but of no consequence and cost for the proprietor – he is keeping his promise.

In other words – change is not what we want and we have to be honest with what we actually want, take away the attention from what is and see the outcome now. Remember Mahatma Gandhi’s quote “You must be the change you want to see in the world” with the stress on BE.

Change has become an emotionally loaded word and the following video is definitely a prime example. It made me cry (in a positive way, I might add)…

This is from Playing for Change, a project to ‘bring change’ through music. I can imagine that this project could benefit from clearly stating what the outcome will be after the change is accomplished.

Other videos on this foundation’s web site do show what the change will be – eduction, building, improving situations through music, etc, so the outcome is stated and the video with it’s emotion caused me to look, so I guess it all worked out OK.

Slavery is still a good business and going strong

Supposedly, governments were invented to make like easier and safer. But governments always end up enslaving humanity. That what we create to ‘server us’ ends up ruling us.

The US government, for and by the people, now imprisons millions, takes half the national income by force, over-regulates, punishes, tortures, slaughter foreigners, invades countries, overtrows governments, imposes seven hundred imperialistic bases oversees, inflates currency and crushes future generations with massive debts.

That what we create to serve us, ends up ruling us.

This is a bit of a transcript of a video from freedomainradio.com,  a site well worth perusing. Here is the video that nicely shows that Abe L did not all do what history now tells us he did. Think about it – who writes the history books…

Money as Debt

Leave a reply

If you don’t buy into the benevolence of governments and have looked into how this all might actually work, you probably ran into terms like fractional banking and the fact that the Federal Reserve is just as Federal as Federal Express – in other words, it’s private and by no means an agency of the government.

Here is a great video presentation on how our monetary system works…

This is only the first part but I am sure that you will be able to find the other parts easily if this first part was intriguing for you as it was for me.
