by write 2 right

Peggy McAllister receives an assignment from school that could lead her to win the Rattletop Award. Each year the winner's name is placed at the top of the list of engraved winner's names on a bronze plaque for the town to see for all time. Peggy is determined that she will have her name on this list, however she makes an unpopular choice for the competition that will involve more work than the other options she was presented with, disappointing her teacher immensely. But something about this name stood out for her and she followed her heart.

Peggy soon discovers that Molly Pitcher's historical documentation is difficult to locate and entire sections of the story of Molly's life are missing or contradictory – forcing Peggy to interview people who have studied this era. Peggy's mother isn't well and is overworked, however, since they live with Peggy's Grandfather, she has ample support for the research project. His former career as a private investigator proved to be invaluable for Peggy in finding contacts and learning how to follow leads.

The research techniques and journey through the mystery of who was Molly Pitcher and what Molly's story was, can actually serve educators and parents well in that it shows the pleasure of a good mystery and the pride of solving the puzzle. The author also reveals the importance of good resources and contacts for research projects. The storyline also allows for small lessons on what an essay is, tips for doing a research project, detailing the work involved and the joy of finding answers. Another interesting educational aspect to the story is learning about the famous historical character in the US known as Molly Pitcher. The book has several images of historical war paintings and a few illustrations as well.

Author and award winning historian Linda Grant De Pauw has written 4 published historical non-fiction novels, 2 fiction novels and 2 other books for young readers. Peacock Press of Casadena (Maryland, USA) published her most recent book for young readers, In Search Of Molly Pitcher in 2007. The eye-catching cover design for this book, created by Kim Jacobs, held my attention repeatedly while trying to read the messages there.

Unfortunately, there is no information in the book itself as to the eco-printing or eco-publishing options that many conscious publishers are embracing today. For this reason alone, I have deducted a half star. Overall I think this book will be a wonderful adventure for young readers.

ISBN#: 978-1-4357-0607-1
Rating: 4.5-out-of-5 stars

Used Hearing Aids: Helping Each Other

DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE

by David Faulkner

Hearing Aids are not very easily affordable equipments. One has to often spend considerable amount of money for purchasing hearing aids. Most of the health insurances available in the country do not allow the purchase of hearing aids. Very rarely one needs customized hearing aids tailored specifically keeping in view the loss of one's hearing ability and one's other needs and requirements. But oftenly the hearing aids used by one person can be of the same utility to some other person like eyeglasses etc. This is quite recommendable in certain cases when one does not have the enough resources to buy a very important need. But before doing so it is very important that you must take care of certain very important points.

Some Important Considerations Before Going For Used Hearing Aids.

The loss of hearing ability is the consequence of different type of the causes and hence there are different types of hearing aids to help these different types of problems. So it is highly advisable that you consult your physician or any specialist before buying the used hearing aids. Your loss of audibility may be due to the age, some disease or some other abnormal development and accordingly you may have very sharp sensation for one type of voices while not for the others; your physician will hence guide you that whether you should go for used hearing aids and if so which type of hearing aids.

From Where I Can Buy Used Hearing Aids.

You can buy your hearing aids from different types of the organizations and auction centres. In certain big cities there are some public auction centres or marts which offer healthy and sterilized used hearing aids at quite affordable prices. The other important option may be online or Internet auction websites such as eBay where you can bid for different type of the used hearing aids put for sale. But before buying such used hearing aids you should confirm about their utility and suitability for you.

Is There Any Other Means Of Having Used Hearing Aids?

Do not hesitate to contact them for used hearing aids if you need them for there is nothing embarrassing in contacting them if your physician has prescribed you the use of hearing aids and momentarily you do not have enough resources, remember nothing is more important than health and it is better to use the used hearing aids than to loose your hearing ability further.

History, Growth and Development Of Modern Microphones

Subscribe in a Reader

DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE

by Victor Epand

The word microphone comes from the Greek words micro meaning small, and phone meaning voice. It first appeared in a dictionary in 1683 as an instrument by which small sounds are intensified.

This was in reference to the acoustical hearing devices such as the ear trumpets and megaphones of that era. Microphones were introduced with the first articulated telephone transmitters, developed almost simultaneously by Elisha Gray and Alexander Graham Bell. Then it was used as a liquid transmitter, which was a variable resistance device. But the poor quality of these liquid transmitters prompted a number of inventors to pursue alternative avenues of design.

Western Union entered the telephone business late in 1877. Now with two companies trying to develop a better transmitter, other experimenters began to appear and offer their devices. David Edward Hughes was one such man who designed a new kind of microphone, using carbon granules loosely packed in an enclosed space.In response to the varying pressure from a sound diaphragm, the electrical resistance through the carbon granules changed proportionally.

Another notable scientist Thomas Alva Edison refined the carbon granule microphone, resulting in the carbon button transmitter in 1886. Edison transmitter was simple and cheap to manufacture, but also very efficient and durable. It has become the basis for the telephone transmitters used in millions of telephones around the world.

The next important step in transmitter design was by Henry Hunnings of England. He used granules of coke between the diaphragm and a metal back plate. This design originated in 1878 and was patented in 1879. This transmitter was very efficient and could carry more current than its competitors. Its one drawback was that it had a tendency to pack and lose its sensitivity.

The advent of electrical disc recording and radio broadcasting in the early 1920s stimulated the development of better quality carbon microphones. The year 1920 ushered in the commercial broadcast era. Some of the knowledgeable amateurs and singers started playing records and using microphones with their programs. The early radio station used the candlestick telephone for a microphone.

The typical transmitter element at this time was the Western Electric No 323. At first it was used as talking into it as one would use a telephone. The next step was to provide the entertainers with a microphone that would allow them to stand and perform. For this application the constructor took the transmitter of the candlestick telephone, replaced the short mouthpiece with the megaphone and slid this combination into a felt lined Bakelite sleeve about eight inches long and put small eyebolts on each end to suspend it from above.

The first microphone, which made for the movie industry was the PB17. It was a sandblasted aluminum cylinder, 17 inches long and 6 inches diameter .The bottom was rounded with a yoke to hold the ribbon element, which had a protective perforated screen. The magnetic structure used an electromagnet requiring six volt at one ampere.

In recent years, some of the more radical approaches to microphone model design have included detecting the movement, in response to sound pressure variations, of charged particles, a system analogous to the ionic loudspeaker. Miniature optical interfaces and related devices developed for the telecommunications industries, such as miniature laser diodes, polarizing beam splitters and photodiodes, are now helping in the construction of the high quality optical microphones.

Review-Jemma7729

Jemma7729, Phoebe Wray, 2008, ISBN 1894063406


Around the year 2200, everyone in North America lives in domes. They have been told by AGNA (Administrative Government of North America), who controls North America with an iron fist, that the atmosphere is toxic and deadly. Women have had all rights taken away from them, under the guise of protecting them.

Jemma7729 (everyone's name is a group of letters and numbers) is someone who does not act "appropriately." When she is five years old, Jemma gets into a fight with a boy at school. Jemma is the one who must publicly apologize to the whole school. Females are not allowed to show aggression, or express an opinion. While her mother is away for a few days, Jemma's father takes her Outside (there is nothing wrong with the air) and shows her the stars on a clear night. For Jemma, there is no going back.

At ten years old, everyone must go through Choosing Day, where they must choose what they want to do for the rest of their lives. Jemma has few available options, the least awful of which is Woman Who Marries. She is very uninterested in spending the rest of her life pleasing her husband, arranging flowers and being an AGNA spy (like her mother). Jemma refuses to choose, and is immediately hauled to "rehab" (prison), where, after a year of harsh techniques to break her spirit, bordering on torture, she escapes to the outside world. Jemma is eleven years old.

Jemma quickly learns to live on her own and spends her time sabotaging the factories that make the chemicals to keep women "altered" (docile and compliant). After a couple of years, the "underground" catches up to Jemma, and convinces her to join them. She spends the next several years traveling to this small town or that isolated hamlet, letting the people know that they are not alone. Meantime, AGNA has described Jemma as some sort of horrible terrorist who likes killing innocent people, which is totally untrue.

This near future, one person against the system, story, might seem a little basic, but the author does a fine job with it. It's interesting, plausible and it's well worth reading.

Types Of Hearing Aids: Making The Best Choice

DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE

by David Faulkner

Why I Need To Know Different Types Of Hearing Aids:

The loss of hearing ability has been regarded as a very serious impairment just a few years ago but the modern age has developed a very efficient solution to this issue, you can very easily over come the minor or moderate hearing loss problem using different types of hearing aids. If your physician has prescribed you using a hearing aid, you should have already enough information enabling you to select a suitable instrument from different types of hearing aids? Your audiologist would usually help you in making this important decision; which kind of hearing aid equipment will be suitable for you; however, it is only you who will make the final choice that out of different types of hearing aids which one would best match your requirement. So the knowledge of different types of is very important before actually buying any hearing instrument.

Different Types Of Hearing Aids

Exploiting the advances in technology and research, different companies have been producing different types of hearings aids; there are however, three basic types of hearing aids. These include
1. In the canal (ITC)
2. In the ear (ITE) &
3. Behind the ear (BTE) types of hearing aids.

These different types of hearing aids primarily vary in terms of various methodologies of production but also in terms of different sizes, shapes and quality. Let us discuss about each type one by one.

Behind The Ear Hearing Devices (BTE)

The BTE are the oldest types of the hearing aids. The BTE as the name indicates are employed behind the ear with a wire that connects to an earmold, which is worn inside the outer part of the ear. A hard plastic case embodies the electronic equipment, and sound is transmitted through the wire into the earmold. BTE is usually prescribed for hearing impaired people of all ages, and can be used at all levels of hearing loss; from minor hearing defect to very serious hearing losses.

An other sort of BTE has been introduced quite recently, usually known as the open fit hearing aid. In these types of hearing aids the plastic case still rests behind the ear; but instead of an earmold like in older types of BTE, a small tubule is introduced inside the ear canal. The open fit aids have been red by many users as it is observed that open fit aids have bettered considerably the sound quality.
In the ear types of hearing aids (ITE)

Now we shall discuss about ITE's. These hearing devices fit into the outer ear but are usually not appropriate for children because they have be replaced oftenly as the child grows. The electronic components of these devices are completely enclosed in a hard plastic casing which rests in the outer part of the ear. An other salient feature of these devices is that they can als be coupled with telecoil which enables for the user very comfortable use of the telephone.

In The Canal Hearing Devices (ITC) And CIC's

The third types of hearing aids are the ITE devices. ITC's are customized devices specially manufactured to suite the exact size and shape of the user's ear canal. A very recent type ITC is a CIC usually known as completely in canal device. These hearing instruments are apparently hidden inside the ear canal. These types of hearing aids are not however prescribed for very serious hearing impairment, because though, these devices are aesthetically quite preferable but owing to their small size their amplification power is not very high . ITC's are also not advisable for children. There are many types of hearing aids tailored specifically for your needs to enable you to hear the sounds you would never like to miss no matter your hearing loss is severe or mild.
