BLACK HOLE RECORDINGS B.V. is a Dutch record label founded by one of the world's leading DJs Tijs Verwest (Tiësto), and Arny Bink in 1997. The label is currently distributed by E1 Entertainment Distribution, known as Koch Entertainment until January 22, 2009.

In late-1994 Tiësto signed to Basic Beat Recordings where he met Arny Bink, Tiësto released records on the sub-label Trashcan, founded by Arny, and later created the Guardian Angel sub-label with Arny in which they introduced the popular Forbidden Paradise series. In the fall of 1997, both Arny and Tiësto decided to leave Basic Beat and create their own parent label, now known as Black Hole Recordings, Trashcan was discontinued and Guardian Angel continued releasing music until 2002. Through Black Hole, Tiësto released the Magik (series) and also created two major sub-labels in 1998; In Trance We Trust and SongBird. From 1998 to 1999 Tiësto released music on Planetary Consciousness where he met A&R Hardy Heller and invited him to release some records on Black Hole. Tiësto later included the In Search of Sunrise (series) on SongBird and opened a new division of Black Hole; Magik Muzik was established in 2001 and it is the home of the chart-topping songs by Tiësto, the sub-label began releasing exclusive material but has expanded since then. Black Hole has become one of the major record labels in the electronic dance music scene, dominating the charts along Armada Music, Anjunabeats to name a few.

It’s possible to embed Android(s goog) into almost any device these days, and increasingly pocket projectors are shipping with the open-source operating system pre-installed. The problem comes when you realize there isn’t a great way to interact with the touch interface when it’s projected onto a wall. Enter TouchPico, a new Indiegogo campaign offering a product which simulates the touch-screen experience with an infrared stylus.

The magic is in the TouchPico’s infrared pen, which, when pressed onto a surface, outputs an infrared signal that is read by a camera on the front of the projector. This means that users can manipulate the projected screen using the pen like they would a touchscreen device with a finger. The device itself is a pico projector that outputs a 854 x 480 display onto a screen or a wall. Paired with the projector is an Android 4.0 device running on a Rocketchip 1GHz processor with two cores.  There’s also an HDMI port so the TouchPico can be used like a more traditional projector.

[Image 1]

I saw a short demo with a pre-production TouchPico at Gigaom’s New York office last week and was pleasantly surprised. The latency on the infrared pen is negligible, and the Android device showed little lag. I played Fruit Ninja, which offers a good example of how even a few milliseconds of lag can seriously hamper a product like this. Yes, I was able to pull off a few combos. I also saw the TouchPico’s capabilities as a projected whiteboard using Android drawing apps.

Some Android-equipped pico projectors, like Sprint’s(s s) LivePro, have paired the pico projector with an on-device touchscreen. Other approaches have used cameras like Microsoft’s Kinect to add touch-like features through motion tracking. Although TouchPico’s infrared approach is simpler and doesn’t support multi-touch gestures, it also means it is lower-cost and easier to implement in a production product, and according to the company, doesn’t put any extra strain on the CPU.

TouchPico CMO Slava Solonitsyn says the target market is education. Interactive whiteboards — made by companies like SmartBoard— are often installed in schools, despite costing thousands of dollars. That high pricetag rules them out for developing markets and price-sensitive school districts, but the TouchPico promises very similar abilities for a fraction of the cost. Eventually, according to Solonitsyn, the infrared camera and pen technology will be available to other projector makers.

The TouchPico was first announced at CES earlier this year, and will be widely available around the holiday season even if the Indiegogo isn’t fully funded. Currently, $270 gets you one of the first TouchPicos off the line, but the price will rise to $500 when it’s released commercially.

question: What is TouchPico?

answer: TouchPico is an infrared stylus.

question: What does TouchPico do?

answer: When it is pressed onto a surface, it outputs an infrared signal that is read by a camera on the front of the projector.

question: Is the projector an Android device?

answer: Yes.

question: What is TouchPico's target market?

answer: Education.

question: Write a ~7 sentence summary.

answer:
TouchPico is an infrared stylus. When pressed onto a surface, it outputs an infrared signal that is read by a camera on the front of the projector. This will help users manipulate the projected screen using the pen. The projector is an Android 4.0 device.

At the demo, it is found that the Android device shows a little lag but the latency on the infrared pen is negligible.

The CMO of TouchPico says their target market is education. Currently, the first TouchPicos off the line cost $270 but the rise will rise to $500 once it is released commercially.

“Do you remember that time that you and I drove around looking at green hills, and we hooked up, our bodies entangled in a kaleidoscope of shapes and movements?   We had taken my mother’s Jeep Cherokee to the end of the road and then hiked along the Caney Fork.  You made me bring a full backpack stuffed with your favorite blanket, and a shit ton of rubbers, I mean, so many that there was no possible way we were going to use them all.  You said we would, and you did that smile you always did when you were up to something.  Your lip curled in the corner, and your teeth just barely peeked through their coral covers.  You forced me to carry the backpack because after all, ‘I was such a big, strong man.’

“I was barely a man at all, more like a boy.  I was twenty, and we had only been dating for four months.  This is going to sound childish, but, I was so excited that I was able to get laid that those first few months were a complete blur.  I remember this moment so clearly though.  It’s surprising what sticks with you.  Anyways, we had hiked along the Caney Fork and made it to Scott’s Gulf.  Remember that waterfall? And how it snuck out of the canyon wall, came out, fell, and when it finally reached the bottom it snuck back into the ground?  Goddamn, it was almost as beautiful as you were that night.  The water was so clear.

"We laid the blanket down, wrapped in each other’s arms, and stared at the waterfall for what felt like ages.  There was something hypnotizing about it.  You turned away from the water and towards me.  You whispered in my ear, ‘Is it going to be like this forever?’ I was staring at the sky, which was melding colors like melting Neapolitan ice cream.  I hesitated, thinking about it for a second, you might not have known that, but I was young, and I’m sure you’ve had the same thoughts before too.  ‘Yeah, I think so.’ I responded, the words seem so far from me now, like it was a totally different conversation than what I remember.  You kissed me on the cheek and said, ‘I hope you’re right.’ I turned and kissed you on the lips, before I knew it we were a sweaty mess of skin, and shapes.

"We eventually headed home; you fell asleep in the passenger seat with your feet on the dash, and your hand clutching mine.  That day was so passionate, and uncanny, so unlike us now.  It’s not the same as when we were younger. Maybe we can rekindle those feelings.  I want to make love to you, not just love you.   We could go back, maybe, and hike along the Caney Fork.  What do you say?”

       “That wasn’t me.”

title: Kaleidoscope

question: Where did they lay the blanket down?

answer: At Scott's Gulf

question: Was this their first date?

answer: No

question: Will they go back, to hike the Caney Fork again?

answer: Information not found.

question: What were they looking at from the blanket?

answer: At a waterfall

question: Write a ~3 sentence summary.

answer: The author is reminiscing about one of the dates he had with his lover when they had first started dating. They went hiking and made love next to a waterfall. He wishes they could love each other like that again.

 Within a 5 mile radius of Jimmy’s BBQ bar, there are close to 13 million people at any given time.  The odds of running into one person that you know are large. Millions of people stood in between that BBQ place down on 16st in Manhattan and Mohawk St in Ronkonkoma.  A distance of 1:32 minutes worth of train rides and 17 minutes of dodging strangers.   But this and the weather don’t stand a chance against the drive in one’s self to meet timeless friends. The cold, windy walkways were packed with strangers, yet you can still feel lonely.  A feeling that is coupled with embarrassment when in front of people with their timeless friends making memories.  A loneliness that drops on you, that doesn’t wipe away like the rain on your face; that doesn’t remove itself with a un-zip or a pull over.  It’s something that can only go away, after you catch the eyes of timeless friends, through the bar and into the dining area with a raise of eyebrows, the international sign of acknowledgement.  This feeling is brushed away as a new one levels up and becomes your greatest emotion.  Some call it happiness.  I call it home.

 Home is a place that time cannot get you.  Where there are no rooms for awkward or embarrassed to crash.  Only rooms for memories, acceptance and love.  When you come back home, A home only for your timeless friends, you are greeted like you’ve been gone for only a second.  Whether that second was last May or 2010.  In this home of yours and your timeless friends, you don’t start conversations.  They’re picked up where they were once dropped off.  The stories told within these walls will always be remembered.  It’s these walls that allow for them to be said and retold again.  A place where new stories can be made and even sometimes, a new person can be invited in.  Whether it’s a new friend or a loved one; they’re accepted.  Few invitations are given out, but when they are, they are never turned down.

   When it’s time to leave this home of you and your timeless friends.  It’s very open and easygoing.  You both understand that you won’t see each other; it may be many months or as few as a week.  But this never worries you, because you know that when the door closes and the final person puts on the lock.  Your home is sealed safe.  It will be waiting whole-heartedly for you to all return again.  And with the moment that has come so quickly, it flows off once again.  Into the walls of strangers, that your timeless friends walk and end.  Until next time, you shall be in each other’s thoughts and in each other’s thoughts of then.

TL;DR  don't be stubborn, read it.

title: A place called home.

question: What relevance to the story does Jimmy's BBQ have?

answer: It's simply a central location around which there are lots of people to still feel lonely amongst.

The best laboratory countertops for you will be determined by what reagents and corrosive chemicals you are using. In addition, choosing a countertop that’s strong, durable, and water and chemical resistant is also essential to the longevity of the countertop.

There are a variety of materials to choose from when it comes to lab surfaces. Installing the wrong countertops can cause problems for your employees and the materials that you’re working with on that surface. Let us help you determine what kind of work surfaces you need for your laboratory.

The first step in the process is to consider what kind of work will be done in the lab. Things to consider are whether you will need countertops that are resistant to heat or chemicals, or that have antifungal properties. We will work with you to answer these questions and also to determine what type of solid surface is best for your lab’s countertops.

The first of the countertop materials to consider is stainless steel, which is commonly used in labs. Stainless steel is resistant to moisture and water, sturdy, and had moderate resistance to fungi and bacteria. It can withstand heat about 1500 Fahrenheit, and it’s on the high end of the price scale.

Epoxy resin is also expensive, but it has many positive attributes. For one thing, it’s highly resistant to fungi, bacteria, moisture, heat, and corrosion. It is sturdy and flame resistant, which makes it a good material for labs that perform heavy industrial and chemical testing.

Phenolic resin has many of the same properties as epoxy resin, but it’s not as flame resistant as epoxy resin. Phenolic resin and layered paper are processed under extreme heat to make this product. The price for this surface is in the medium range.

Chemical resistant laminate and high-pressure laminate are both less expensive and have a low resistance to bacteria, corrosion, and water. However, chemical resistant laminate, which is made from paper encased by chemicals, is resistant to chemicals. High-pressure laminate adds a decorative look and is inexpensive.

The Product Specialists at LOC will assist you with choosing the right countertop material for your specific lab applications. We will also recommend the best laboratory countertops, edge, backsplash, sinks, pegboards, drains, and other accessories. Laboratory countertops are American made and available in Phenolic Resin, Epoxy Resin and Stainless Steel.

If you have questions about Laboratory Countertops and Sinks, contact one of our Product Specialists at 877.527.5775.

question: Why is choosing the right countertops to install important for labs?

answer: You should consider whether or not you'll need a heat-resistant material, and what sort of corrosive materials you may be working with. Antifungal properties and surfaces less likely to foster bacteria growth are also important factors.

question: What's a con of stainless steel?

answer: It is pricey.

question: What's a pro of epoxy resin?

answer: It's highly resistant to fungi, bacteria, moisture, heat, and corrosion.

question: What's a pro of different kinds of laminate?

answer: It's less expensive.

question: Write a ~5 sentence summary.

answer: When considering which materials to use for a laboratory countertop, it's important to do your research. First, you should determine what your lab needs are. For example, stainless steel and epoxy resin are both resistant to fungi, bacteria, moisture, and heat, though the former has more limitations when it comes to fungi and bacteria. However, both are expensive.Types of laminates are less pricey, but not as resistant. Laboratory Countertops and Sinks is happy to answer any questions you may have.

Liquid

I woke up this morning on an unfamiliar couch clutching a peppergrinder in one  hand and a Red Bull in the other.  An angry, turgid sensation inside my mouth reminded me that I had been drinking last night; I sat up to get my bearings both my head and my gut rebelled in memory of just how much.  I eased back  into the couch, which I now noticed to be in a state that only added fuel to  my stomach's disobedience.

I woke up a second time this morning with my face pressed to the musty upholstery of a vaguely familiar couch.  From my awkward vantage point, I gazed over a  landscape of matted greens, ranging from apple to zucchini.  The thought of food reminded me of the burgeoning revolution in my stomach, which, having  caught my attention once again, chose that particular moment to mount its  final offensive and break free of the injustices that I had so thoughtlessly imposed upon my body the previous night.  As I lay incapacitated by the uncontrollable heaving in my diaphragm, I recalled the objects that I clutched in either hand, and the more pressing matter of where the fuck I was.

Laboriously, I raised my head for a second time this morning, and, for a second time this morning, I regretted it deeply.  However, spurred on by the powerful demons of shame and despair, I stood up unsteadily and plodded off in search of cleaning facilities.  The first thing I found was a coffee table.  Rather, my left foot found it.  I found a carpet whose must made a fresh meadow of my green friend. After some half-hearted struggling, I stood up again.  This time, accounting for  the noticeable spin of the world, I made my way to the nearest door, pausing only to pocket the peppergrinder in order to free the requisite appendages to open said door.

In retrospect, I might have gleaned some clues as to the identity of my unfortunate  host by the clothes strewn across the floor, or the pictures on the wall,  or even by approaching the snoring occupant of the bed in the far corner of the room.  However, I had already relieved one of three plumbing urges in an inappropriate place and I was determined that the other two would be dealt with in a more orderly fashion in a more suitable location.

As I stumbled through the crass early afternoon sun, I regretted every decision that I had made last night on the simple principle of the matter.  Marks on the back of my hand told me that I had frequented not one, but five fine, upstanding establishments of varying degrees of debauchery and a distinct lightness in my backpocket informed me that I was most likely in all sorts of financial trouble.  The optimist in me commanded that I look on the bright side of things, but my eyes screamed in  protest at every flash and glare they met with so I compromised and continued on without looking at all.

To passers-by I must have been a sight.  The stride of my left leg was by far outpaced by that of my right, resulting in a stagger fit for a peg-legged pirate.  My lips were ashen with dehydration, but a suspiciously chunky smudge on chin and black tshirt informed any observer plainly that I must have expelled some precious fluid recently. Fortunately, my hairstyle was pristine, but that was only the intentional byproduct of a carefully maintained lack thereof.  I easily feigned a tired and vacant expression on my face and studiously avoided eyecontact with my silent judges by staring at my untied shoelaces until I reached my front door.

There are few pleasures in life that outweigh that of a cold glass of water when your mouth is so dry you cannot move your tongue.  However, the pleasure is soon diluted when you reflect upon the series of events that have led to this eventuality.  Particularly, when the events are at best mere logical conclusions rather than an firm memory.  I take another deep draught of water and realize that instead of feeling more refreshed, I feel  the momentum of the liquid in my stomach with every motion of my body, accompanied by  splashing sounds which herald yet another act of excess.  My body is bloated by rash decisions which I suspect outline some form of avoidance behaviour, but I can't for the life of me pinpoint the exact cause thereof.  I put my moka on the stove and begin to  brew a strong cup of coffee and retire to the shower to wash away any remnants of the  night and my shameful start to the day.

I fumble with the dial and am immediately punished with a barrage of ice cold needles which bite my skin, but that lasts for only a moment before the needles turn to fiery arrows  that melt my already soft flesh.  The rapid turn of events disorients me further and I  struggle to stand up straight.  The half dozen half empty bottles of formulaicly scented  body wash are not so fortunate and raucously tumble about in the halfpipe of my bathtub. After a few more adjustments of the dial, I return my attention to the disarray at my feet and slowly return them to their places, opening only the last bottle to squeeze out a few  drops of civilization to rub onto my body so that I can convince myself that I am presentable. I stand, face down, letting the water flow down my back contemplating an image of myself deep in pithy contemplation, conjuring a fantasy of reaching some yet unrevealed philosophical realization.  Finally, I realize that my coffee is burning.

The sickly sweet smell of burnt coffee will penetrate every conceivable corner of my apartment, so I open few windows, grab a cigarette and step outside.  My clothes are decent but unremarkable, fashionable, but not avant garde, and spotless but not clean.  Between my formulaic bodywash and run of the mill deodorant, there is no evidence that I haven't done the laundry in weeks, but the ever so slight dullness in my clothes establishes an aura of mediocrity and shabbiness to my appearance.  Not so far as to imitate the trainwreck that I was this morning, far enough for me to feel as unimpressive as my shirt.  A few dark smudges on the backs of my hands are all the evidence I have left of the previous night.  Those, and my missing wallet and two souvenirs.  I crack open the Red Bull, even though my obnoxiously strong coffee has already  made me mildly giddy and apprehensive.  It is in this unremarkable state that I begin another dull Wednesday at 4PM.

You see, being above average intelligence is a curse in this world.  I wish so dearly I could be as fullfilled as the average plebe by the wonders of popculture and consumer products.  That  Hollywood movies could both emulate blowing my mind and opening my eyes and that I could  aspire to a 9 to 5 at the local grocery store, settle for a bitchy wife with no particular function in society, and dream about women whose conversational abilities would overwhelm only the most naive of teacups.  Unfortunate me, I see the world through a finer lens at a higher resolution than most.  I am capable of great feats in the realms of art and science.  Should I  put my mind to it, I can understand the currents of politics or the fundamental shifts in societal values at a level worthy of my education.  My motivation is absent due to a lack of circumstance, not by any fault of my own.  There are those who are blessed with this obscene drive to do things. I am, unfortunately, not one of those people.  I something or someone to come by and start my engine and keep it running, but when that happens, I will achieve something great.  I get  flashes of inspiration that others dream of, you see.   I see that life is not worth living, but I'm not quite ready to disappear just yet, so I simply exist, floating.

This is what I tell myself as I reach my office.  This what I tell myself to make everything seem ok. The hollow caffiene rush from the coffee and Red Bull makes it impossible to sleep at my desk, but the lack of energy and food makes it impossible for me to work, so instead, I surf the internet searching for that elusive flash of inspiration that will motivate me to achieve my potential. After a few hours, I prepare to leave.  It didn't happen today, but I only need that one in my lifetime, after all.

Tomorrow, I will wake up in my bed at 1pm with a splitting headache, nauseated by the smell of burning coffee, throat parched and unable to hold a thought in my head until 4pm.  Tomorrow, I will wonder about what will have happened tonight and finally give up.  Tomorrow, I will come to the philosophical realization that nearly washes over me every day in the shower.  Tomorrow, I will have a flash of inspiration that will motivate me to get myself moving to the ultimate achievement which will justify the life I live. Tomorrow, today will no longer matter and I will no longer have to feel unremarkable in the mirror.  Tomorrow, I will no longer forget the precise point of my actions midway.  Tonight, I need another drink.

[Damage caused during the labour disruption]The 2008 TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION STRIKE was a legal strike action by Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) unionized employees that began on April 26, 2008, at 12:01 a.m. EDT.[1][2] All bus, streetcar and subway service in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, was suspended, leaving thousands of people stranded across the city.[3] Although the strike action was legal, the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 113 did not provide 48-hour notice of the service withdrawal as they had previously promised they would do. Instead, the ATU only provided 90 minutes' notice before the service withdrawal.[4] Bob Kinnear, president of ATU Local 113, claimed that the lack of an advance notice was necessary to protect the TTC employees from “angry and irrational members of the public”.[5]

General synopsis

The strike occurred when the two unions, ATU Local 113 and Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 2, voted 65% to reject the offer made on April 20, 2008.[6] The result of the ratification vote was completed just after 10:00 p.m. on April 25 and Torontonians and TTC employees were given approximately 90 minutes' notice before the job action began.

The rejected offer had offered TTC operators a 3% wage increase each year for three years. Some operators and maintenance staff were not pleased with the offer. There were also concerns over the injury compensation package and, according to some reports, contracting out work.[7] TTC employees voiced their concerns over the week prior to the strike.

Back-to-work legislation

[Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty] At approximately 11:45 p.m. on April 25, minutes before the strike began, Toronto mayor David Miller held a news conference stating that the strike action was “unacceptable and irresponsible” after the ATU failed to comply with the initial 48-hour strike notice and the subsequent rejection of the contract.[8][9] The mayor made a special request to Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty asking him to seek back-to-work legislation, a special law that would block the TTC strike from continuing.[10] By 12:30 p.m. on April 26, the provincial government had signed an Order in Council allowing for a rare Sunday sitting of the Ontario legislature to consider a bill (Bill 66) to order the union and its members back to work.[11]

On April 27, 2008, Bill 66 was unanimously passed by the Ontario Legislature, a process which only took 30 minutes. The law was quickly given royal assent by David Onley, the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario, and it came into force at 2 p.m. The TTC was given a few hours to ensure the system was ready to operate and to build up service. Most transit service resumed by that evening.[12]

Offer

-   Term: three years, expiring March 31, 2011
-   Wages: April 1, 2008 – 3%; April 1, 2009 – 3%; April 1, 2010 – 3%
-   Vision Care: $300 every 2 years; plus $50 for exams
-   Dental Care: major restorative, including implants up to $2,500

title: 2008 Toronto Transit Commission strike

question: What does the text say is the cause of the Toronto Transit Commission strike of April 2008?

answer: The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) embarked on a strike beginning on the 26th of April 2008 to protest the offer to increase their wages by 3% each year for three years. This offer, made on the 20th of April, was not well received by some maintenance staff and operators of TTC. The TTC, in conjunction with the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) and the Canadian union of public employees, voted against the offer by 65%. However, the Toronto mayor, David Miller, reprimanded their actions because the ATU refused to accept the 3% offer and failed to comply with the agreed 48-hour strike notice. Following this, Miller reached out to Ontario premier, Dalton McGuinty, to enforce a back-to-work law to prevent the TTC strike from continuing.

Golden Eyes

When golden eyes no longer glow,
and we both know it’s time to go,

Don’t look at me with eyes so sad,
but think of better times we had,

When sunlight did upon us shine,
and happy days were yours and mine,

And through the grass we both did run,
and on our backs we felt the sun,

Think not of this dark final hour,
think not of when our lives turned sour,

Think not of hopelessness and pain,
but think of joy and laugh again,

For in that final act of love,
you released me to heaven above,

Where finally from pain I’m free,
where one day you will join with me,

Where together again we will rejoice,
and you and I as with one voice,

Will in perfect harmony sing,
of the joy and pain that love can bring,

And remember me just as I will,
always think of you until,

At last again I see your face,
grieve not, I am in a better place.
