  • High-Performance, Flame-Retardant Material Results in Battery Connector That Can Take the Heat
    Case Study High-performance, Flame-retardant Material Results in Battery Connector that Can Take the Heat Sustainability To address the environmental issues, SMK also was looking for non-halogenated and bio-based materials that would meet those parameters. Solution The DuPont Japan sales team joined forces with the SMK design team in Japan to initiate the project and to do the material recommendation. Technical teams from SMK and DuPont China then collaborated to run the trial at the SMK facility in China. The onsite technical support from DuPont China’s technical team also optimized the processing for the cell phone battery connector. The great team collaboration helped ensure the mass production of the component. Phone shown does not use SMK battery connector. Project Meets the demands of reflow soldering DuPont’s high-performance material, Zytel® HTN flame-retardant When a global cell phone supplier wanted products that are safer and non-halogenated grade, proved to be a superior material for consumers, they turned to SMK with a request: help us develop for overcoming out-gassing during the production of the battery a battery connector that is flame retardant. connector and blistering during the reflow soldering process.

  • The Dealership of Tomorrow 2.0: America’S Car Dealers Prepare for Change
    The Dealership of Tomorrow 2.0: America’s Car Dealers Prepare for Change February 2020 An independent study by Glenn Mercer Prepared for the National Automobile Dealers Association The Dealership of Tomorrow 2.0 America’s Car Dealers Prepare for Change by Glenn Mercer Introduction This report is a sequel to the original Dealership of Tomorrow: 2025 (DOT) report, issued by NADA in January 2017. The original report was commissioned by NADA in order to provide its dealer members (the franchised new-car dealers of America) perspectives on the changing automotive retailing environment. The 2017 report was intended to offer “thought starters” to assist dealers in engaging in strategic planning, looking ahead to roughly 2025.1 In early 2019 NADA determined it was time to update the report, as the environment was continuing to shift. The present document is that update: It represents the findings of new work conducted between May and December of 2019. As about two and a half years have passed since the original DOT, focused on 2025, was issued, this update looks somewhat further out, to the late 2020s. Disclaimers As before, we need to make a few things clear at the outset: 1. In every case we have tried to link our forecast to specific implications for dealers. There is much to be said about the impact of things like electric vehicles and connected cars on society, congestion, the economy, etc. But these impacts lie far beyond the scope of this report, which in its focus on dealerships is already significant in size. Readers are encouraged to turn to academic, consulting, governmental and NGO reports for discussion of these broader issues.

They made a major contribution to the success of the best lantern presentations. Yet they received little notice in their own time, and have received even less in ours. Who were these people? Who created the best color for the commercial lantern slide companies? Who colored the slides that helped make the best lecturers into superstars? What were their secrets—their domestic and foreign inspirations, their hidden artistic techniques—the elements that made them so outstanding? What was the “revolution” in slide coloring, and who followed in the footsteps of the revolutionaries?

  • Thesis, the Songs of 10 Rappers Were Analyzed
    ABSTRACT Get Rich or Die Tryin’: A Semiotic Approach to the Construct of Wealth in Rap Music Kristine Ann Davis, M.A. Mentor: Sara J. Stone, Ph.D. For the past 30 years, rap music has made its way into the mainstream of America, taking an increasingly prominent place in popular culture, particularly for youth, its main consumers. This thesis looks at wealth through the lens of semiotics, an important component of critical/cultural theory, using a hermeneutical analysis of 11 rap songs, spanning the last decade of rap music to find signification and representation of wealth in the rap song lyrics. The research finds three important themes of wealth - relationship between wealth and the opposite sex, wealth that garners respect from other people, and wealth as a signifier for “living the good life” - and five signifiers of wealth – money, cars, attire, liquor, and bling.

  • 2017 High Sierra Music Festival Program
    WELCOME! Festivarians, music lovers, friends old and new... WELCOME to the 27th version of our annual get-together! This year, we can’t help but look back 50 years to the Summer of Love, the summer of 1967, a year that brought us the Monterey Pop Festival (with such performers as Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin and The Grateful Dead) which became an inspiration and template for future music festivals like the one you find yourself at right now. But the hippies of that era would likely refer to what’s going on in the political climate of these United States now as a “bad trip” with the old adage “the more things change, the more they stay the same” coming back into play. Here we are in 2017 with so many of the rights and freedoms that were fought long and hard for over the past 50 years being challenged, reinterpreted or revoked seemingly at warp speed. It’s high time to embrace the two basic tenets of the counterculture movement. First is PEACE. PEACE for your fellow human, PEACE within and PEACE for our planet. The second tenet brings a song to mind - and while the Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band gets all the attention on its 50th anniversary, it’s the final track on their Magical Mystery Tour album (which came out later the same year) that contains the most apropos song for these times. ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE. LOVE more, fear less. LOVE is always our answer. Come back to LOVE.

  • Working Safely During COVID-19 in Film and High-End TV Drama Production
    British Film Commission - Working Safely During COVID-19 in Film and High-end TV Drama Production First published 01 June 2020 Last updated 31 July 2020 V.2.3 The UK is currently experiencing a public health emergency as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is critical that employers, employees and the self-employed take steps to keep everyone safe. This document is to help employers, employees and the self-employed in film and high-end TV drama production in the UK understand how to work safely during this pandemic, ensuring as many people as possible comply with social distancing guidelines (2m apart, or 1m+ with risk mitigation where 2m is not viable). We hope it gives you freedom within a practical framework to think about what you need to do to continue, or restart, operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. We understand how important it is to work safely and support the health and wellbeing of cast and crew during the COVID- 19 pandemic and not contribute to the spread of the virus. This document has been prepared in consultation with the Department for Digital, Culture Media and Sport (DCMS) with input from crew and crew representatives, industry bodies, unions and the devolved administrations in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and in consultation with Public Health England (PHE) and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Productions based in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales should additionally check for the relevant devolved Government guidance as it may differ. Productions should always consider whether there are local restrictions in place where you are filming.
