OVERVIEW Being able to service your boiler is one thing. Being able to maintain and = do it safely is another thing. Boilers have been commonly used by the = industries for centuries in producing steam. These industries varies from manufacturing lines to processing industries like food, agriculture, oil & = gas, utility power plants and even commercial building sectors, for = instance hotel, hospital etc. Over time, the basic boilers have grown in = respect of the power as well as capacities, and applications of = sophisticated automation and electro-techniques are used; hence increasing = the possibilities of operation failures, flaws and accidents. Improving = knowledge and skills through practical training in boiler management is = perhaps the most tangible way to avoid such losses, not only on human = lives, but also on maintenance costs. Anyone can teach theory, but there = simply is no substitution for real practical experiences. The 2-days = intensive course on Boiler/ Steam Plant Operation & Management focuses in = establishing the proper maintenance procedures and correct practices in = the Steam Plant Operation. It will cover Boiler Safety, Boiler Management, = and Cost Control (Boiler Efficiency) in operating the Steam Plant. In = addition, it will provide practical guidance in boiler management = procedures, which is highly useful in their work routine. In general, this = program will escalate the practical knowledge base of participants to = become better Operators and Technicians in their own plants. The = participants will develop ideas & suggestions from the course, which then = could be forwarded to their management for improvements in their work = process=2E UPON COMPLETION _ Increase their confidence to Operate & Supervise Steam Plant _ Explain the Importance of the components used in Steam Plant _ Describe the Principles of Operation and Maintenance of Steam Plant _ Understand the Concepts such as Water Treatment, Combustion System & = Material used in the Steam Plant _ Provide some proper Guidelines & Procedures in Maintaining the Boilers OUR CONSULTANT Mr R.C.Raj holds a First Grade Steam and Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) = Engineer Certification issued by JKKP, DOSH. With more than 35 years of = working experience, mainly in the operation and maintenance of palm oil = mills and petro-chemical complex manufacturing, his professional = specialization ranges from the operation and maintenance of all Steam = Generating Equipments and Steam Usage Equipments, to other utilities such = as Natural Gas Fired Boilers, Waste Heat Boilers, Steam Turbine, Gas = Turbine, Water and Condensate Treatment, Cooling Water System and Chilled = Water System. He is also the Visiting Engineer and Advisor for another = Utility Steam Plant and Co-generation Plants. His current projects = include: Working with a Team of Engineers on Biomass Project; Design and = Engineering Study on Direct Fired Chillers 1500Usrt; Carrying out a Study = on Cost Optimization for Co-Gen Plant. Chiller Operation, Boiler, Gas = Turbine, Cooling and Chilled Water Systems Apart from his profession, he = has conducted numerous training programs for technicians, engineers and = managers in companies or institutions like Petronas, MPOB, Gas District = Cooling Holdings Sdn Bhd (GDC), MEC Works Sdn Bhd, Thermal System & = Engineering Sdn Bhd, Boiler Care Sdn Bhd, University Malaya = (UM),University Technology Petronas (UTP) etc.=20 COURSE OUTLINE =95 1.

(!) Yeah Martin, that seems a lot; mine's using ~6 seconds per day. Perhaps to do with running on amd64 rather than i386, though I've no idea why, unless it's much busier with ACPI than with APM. Might be worth trying with the explicit -acpi switch, in case it tries using the apm-over-acpi calls on your system? Pure speculation .. Are you running any commands on any conditions from the resource file? I don't use ~/.asapmrc at all, just run 'asapm -lower forestgreen'. > Regarding look, I would prefer asapm to use a bit more of space like > wmbsdbatt does (or wmcpuload which I've long been using as a visual load > monitor). Well this ol' beastie has an 800x600 screen, so small (about 0.9" square with frame) is good for me.

I paired my laptop (6.0-RELEASE afaik) with the phone and used it as a modem to dial-up to Verizon's network. The speed wasn't great (EVDO) but it worked. Verizon phones dial #777 for a data connection where the username is your_10_digit_number@vzw3g.com and the password is vzw. Don't think you need the cable/dongle as long as your 755p supports DUN via bluetooth. I have a 700wx myself but haven't tried this yet.

The hardware is built into a weathertight box mounted on the outside of a structure; there's no console. The system boots via PXE and mounts its root filesystem via NFS, though, and I have remote power control as well, so I have fairly complete control over bootup. Is single-user strictly necessary? ++J From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Apr 26 02:43:36 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 380B21065675 for ; Sat, 26 Apr 2008 02:43:36 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ml@t-b-o-h.net) Received: from vjofn.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (unknown [IPv6:2001:470:1f00:ffff::5e5]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DD93A8FC1A for ; Sat, 26 Apr 2008 02:43:35 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ml@t-b-o-h.net) Received: from himinbjorg.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (75-137-123-119.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com [75.137.123.119]) (authenticated bits=0) by vjofn.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (8.14.2/8.14.2) with ESMTP id m3Q2hJtk083190; Fri, 25 Apr 2008 22:43:29 -0400 (EDT) Received: from himinbjorg.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (localhost.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com [127.0.0.1]) by himinbjorg.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (8.13.8/8.13.6) with ESMTP id m3Q2h95r014015; Fri, 25 Apr 2008 22:43:09 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from ml@t-b-o-h.net) Received: (from tbohml@localhost) by himinbjorg.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com (8.13.8/8.13.6/Submit) id m3Q2h9Zj014014; Fri, 25 Apr 2008 22:43:09 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from tbohml) From: "Tuc at T-B-O-H.NET" Message-Id: <200804260243.m3Q2h9Zj014014@himinbjorg.tucs-beachin-obx-house.com> To: oberman@es.net Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2008 22:43:09 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.5 PL8] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dial-up Networking with Verizon and Treo X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 26 Apr 2008 02:43:36 -0000 > > I have a Verizon Wireless Palm 755p with which I can connect my laptop > to the Internet under Windows.
