| Spix's Macaw School - before videoThu, 08 Jan 2009 07:36:49 -0800 by ParrotsInternationalParrots International officially adopted the Spix's Macaw School in 2006, then quickly gained partners in Support of the School. Located in Curaca, Brazil, the Spix's Macaw School is important as it begins to enlist the support of the local population in the area where the Spix's Macaw Working Group considers a probably release area for the reintroduction of the Spix's Macaw . The Partners for the Spix's Macaw School Project began by supporting the children's education, school meals, purchasing school supplies and new desks and chairs, and updating solar eletrical equipment. In 2008 the Partners funded a major enlargement for the school and began supporting adult education classes for the local adults. Many of the local adults have no reading and writing skills, and the Spix's Macaw School has become their chance at a better life...as well as for their children.

| Man on a Tightrope//NineThu, 08 Jan 2009 07:11:39 -0800 by samizdrama(Fourteen parts)Czechoslovakia , 1952: Karel Cernik struggles to keep his Circus Cernik together, despite mounting restrictions laid on him by the new communist regime. When local officials order him to dismiss foreign members of his troop or face its liquidation, his dream of escape to the West becomes a plan.This was based on an actual incident, which was the basis of Neil Paterson's story "International Incident". Some of the supporting roles in this film were played by performers who made the escape with Circus Brumbach. Historical fact has of course been embelished a bit, and the American accents require some suspension of disbelief. But in the stark, violent ending, one gets a feeling of having witnessed a very real event. Filmed in Bavaria.ABOUT ELIA KAZAN:A former communist, Elia Kazan made a turnaround after learning of the repressions of Stalin's regime, and later testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee about several Hollywood professionals who were communists or communist sympathizers--a step for which many in Hollywood never forgave him. "Man on a Tightrope" is one of his lesser-known, rarely-seen works.A few additional notes from the TCM (Turner Classic Movies) website:"...Neil Paterson's book first appeared as a novelette in the British magazine Lilliput under the title International Incident. As noted by contemporary sources, the film is loosely based on real incidents involving the Brumbach Circus, which escaped from Communist-controlled East Germany to West Germany in 1950. Unlike the escape in the film, however, circus owner Gustav Brumbach slowly moved a few camouflaged pieces of equipment and performers at a time, over a period of several months. Contemporary sources note that many members of the Brumbach Circus, including Madame Brumbach and dwarf Hansi, appeared in or worked on the film, which was shot on location near Fall, Bavaria, the Isar River in Bavaria and Munich, Germany..."...Accord ing to Hollywood Reporter news items, the film's New York premiere was a benefit for the International Rescue Committee. In modern sources, director Elia Kazan asserted that, against his wishes, studio production chief Darryl F. Zanuck cut twenty minutes from the film before its release. In his autobiography, Kazan stated that the crew and cast were subjected to harassment from the East German government, which threatened to harm family members still living there. According to Kazan, the first director of photography hired by the company quit due to these threats. Kazan also praised the crew and circus performers' dedication to the project despite the harsh conditions under which they lived, and revealed that he developed a close friendship with Hansi and several of the other performers."

| Hosokawa Micron Air Jet SieveThu, 08 Jan 2009 06:11:55 -0800 by HosokawaMicronThe Micron Air Jet Sieve utilizes a dynamic sifting principle that enhances the accuracy and reproducibility of particle size analysis. Use of this device has become a preferred method for such tasks as quality assurance of incoming raw materials and the confirmation of final product specifications. While negative pressure draws all the particles below a defined particle size down through a screen, a positive airflow is introduced upwards through a rotating wand. This airflow deagglomerates and disperses any undersized particles. Precise particle size can be quickly determined at sizes from 20 to 4,750 microns. This unique rotating wand method also eliminates the need for tapping or brushing and increases reproducibility with controlled measurements of pressure drop and duration. Additionally, the operation is quieter, cleaner, and requires less space than other types of similar analytical equipment. Where absolute reliability in determining particle size and particle size distribution is essential, the Micron Air Jet Sieve is the industry choice.
