Die Walkure: Met Opera Ring Cycle Encore
In Theaters Now
An encore performance of Wagner's Die Walkure will be shown in select theatres on Monday, May 14, 2012, at 6:30 PM in all time zones. This extraordinarily powerful work of theater focuses on some of the Ring's most interesting characters at decisive moments of their lives: Wotan, whose violation of his own laws has jeopardized the gods' rule; his twin offspring, Siegmund and Sieglinde, who are meant to save the gods; and, above all, his heroic Valkyrie daughter Brunnhilde, who makes a fateful decision that shatters her world. This production marked soprano Deborah Voigt's first performances as Brunnhilde. Bryn Terfel again is Wotan, Jonas Kaufmann and Eva-Maria Westbroek star as the twins, Siegmund and Sieglinde, and Stephanie Blythe sings Fricka.

Isotech Expands In-House Automation Engineering Capabilities to Better Serve Demand for Application Design
Increasingly manufacturers are challenged with the task of engineering complex automation solutions in order to maintain a competitive advantage in areas like manufacturing processes. The pace of technology often leaves these businesses short on resources, technical know-how, and time to effectively and efficiently meet those challenges. Isotech, Inc., a supplier of linear motion components, is increasing in-house automation engineering capabilities to meet the demand for outsourced automation engineering.
Small Optical Force Can Budge Nanoscale Objects
With a bit of leverage, Cornell researchers have used a very tiny beam of light with as little as 1 milliwatt of power to move a silicon structure up to 12 nanometers. That's enough to completely switch the optical properties of the structure from opaque to transparent, they reported.
Basic Overview of Human Area Networking Technology
Human society is entering an era of ubiquitous computing, when networks are seamlessly interconnected and information is always accessible at our fingertips. The practical implementation of ubiquitous services requires three levels of connectivity: Wide Area Networks (WAN), typically via the Internet, to remotely connect all types of severs and terminals; Local Area Networks (LAN), typically via Ethernet or WiFi connectivity among all the information and communication appliances in offices and homes; and Human Area Networks (HAN) for connectivity to personal information, media and communication appliances within the much smaller sphere of ordinary daily activities the last one meter.
