Brigade electronics launches a new reversing camera that assures vehicular safety

Leave a comment

It has been noted that one of the most preferred car accessory over the last couple of months happen to be reversing cameras. These cameras also called as rear view cameras are set to not just substitute the rear view mirror, but to totally do away with it.  Reversing cameras are generally set in the car. The shutter is generally places at the back of the vehicle, while the camera view can be got from the driver’s seat. This implies that when a driver needs a view of the rear, while backing or parking, the camera can take care of the fact that the view is what the driver needs exactly. The reversing cameras are quite the breakthrough in the world of vehicular safety. This has prompted Brigade Electronics to go further with launching this brand new device.

Although the Reversing Cameras seem to work just like the ordinary cameras, there is quite a difference in the way the camera works. These cameras are equipped with a mechanism that flips the image of the camera horizontally. As a result the image that it produces is mirrored. The need for this mechanism arises from the fact that the shutter and the driver are seated in opposite direction. This further helps in helping the driver of the vehicle in calculating the exact time and distance between another vehicle which is moving or parked at the rear side.

Surveys and studies have revealed that last year there was an increase in the number of people who got such reversing cameras fitted in their vehicles. Another study tends to point out that women who drive tend to prefer reversing cameras in their cars rather than rear view mirrors. Since it has been seen that women generally look for safer options and features when driving, a correlation can be drawn out. It can be assumed that the reversing cameras out in the market seem to be a safer option for all those driving on the roads as compared to the rear view mirrors.

One of the primary reasons behind this trend could be the view that rear view mirrors provide in comparison to the reversing cameras. The view of the rear mirrors begin from 10 ft to 15 ft behind the vehicle. As a result drivers find it difficult to get a view of what is immediately behind the vehicle they are driving. The cameras that have been launched by the Brigade electronics have done away with that problem. For those who have children at home, it becomes easier to drive more confidently to ensure that no toy or child is behind the wheel. These cameras also make parking quite an easier option. The official website of Brigade Electronics has a display of the working of the camera.

Here at Taps & Showers we specialise in bring the customer exactly what they want and we think our latest marketing drive will appeal to those people with a real pride in their property and bathroom in particular.’

Our spokesperson goes onto say, ‘We pride ourselves on providing quality bathroom accessories for all and like to think we have something to suit all budgets.

NITRAM FUSAINS FINE ART CHARCOAL RETURNS TO THE DELIGHT OF SERIOUS ARTISTS EVERYWHERE

Leave a comment

Feb 27, 2011 – Much to the delight of serious artists everywhere, the renowned Nitram Fine Art Charcoal is returning to market. Now presented online at http://www.nitramcharcoal.com, this product’s renaissance comes strictly adhering to the methods and traditions of Nitram’s time-tested processes. Brought back by artist and entrepreneur Jerzy Niedojadlo in January of 2011, the charcoal’s return has been celebrated by professional artists the world over.

Niedojadlo’s interest in art began at an early age. With Robert Bateman as his high school art teacher, Niedojadlo’s passion and vision took full flight. As years passed, however, “business got in the way” and his aesthetic endeavours took a back seat. In recent years, the flame arose again and Niedojadlo took it upon himself to take traditional art classes at the Academy of Art in Toronto, Canada. There, he learned of Nitram (Fusains) Fine Art Charcoal and its legacy as one of the best charcoal products in the world.

It was, unfortunately, discontinued. Disappointed but not deterred, Niedojadlo elected to track down the source of the nearly mythical Nitram Fine Art Charcoal and, after several long sessions of correspondence, was able to discover that “Mr. Nitram” had moved on to other interests. Nitram Fine Art Charcoal, like Niedojadlo’s artistic endeavours so many years ago, had taken a back seat.

That’s when the idea struck Niedojadlo to take up the tradition of Nitram for himself. With more correspondence and dedication, Niedojadlo eventually headed to France and purchased the process, trademark and equipment of Nitram Fine Art Charcoal. He learned the techniques and extensively monitored the process of making the charcoal from start to finish, honing the master’s process and ensuring that the traditions stood strong.

So now, Nitram Arts Inc. and Jerzy Niedojadlo are prepared to reintroduce the beloved Nitram Fine Art Charcoal to the world. Using time-honoured methods, Nitram Charcoal is once again available.

For serious artists the world over, there is no substitute. Nitram Fine Art Charcoal has been an essential component of the artistic community for nearly 50 years, garnering rave reviews:

“We encourage our students to use only the best possible drawing materials. Nitram is the preferred charcoal of students and instructors at The Florence Academy of Art. Its quality and consistency meets the high standards we demand.”
– Daniel Graves, Founder/Director The Florence Academy of Art

“Nitram has always stood out with its unique balance of crispness and suppleness that is unmistakable. Nitram quite simply is the finest.”
– Harvey Nelson, Co-director/Co-founder Academy of Art Canada

“Nitram Charcoal has been my drawing medium of choice for many years. The use of a high quality art materials allows me to focus on my artistic expression rather than the tools themselves.”
– Juliette Aristides, Author of “A Contemporary Guide to Traditional Studio Practice”

Featuring Nitram Académie Fusains B (soft), Nitram Académie Fusains HB (medium) and Nitram Académie Fusains H (hard), Nitram Arts Inc. makes available the essential variety of high-quality charcoal. The charcoal is currently available at NitramCharcoal.com in packages of five batons.

Choosing the Finest Engagement Ring

Leave a comment

February 2011: apart from flowers and chocolates women also crave for jewelry. Every woman wants to have the best jewelry and every man wants to fulfill this wish of his woman. If it is about buying an engagement ring then it becomes more special. Every couple wants to have the best buy for their money when choosing their engagement ring. In order to get the best one they end up getting confused. It is important to be aware of few important things that help you get the maximum out of your money.

Engagement ring is very special to every couple. Make them further special by buying the best ones. You just have to keep a few things in mind while choosing your engagement rings. There are four important features of diamonds that have to be considered when buying one. These four features help you choose the best one from your budget.

It is common knowledge that diamonds look beautiful because of the cuts made on them. The jewelry looks good only because of the cuts. Check the certificate of the diamond for the type of cut. The best cut diamonds are graded as truehearts or hearts and arrows. They are the best ones to buy. Apart from these you can also go for ideal or premium type of cut.

Engagement rings are very special. It is a must to make sure that the diamonds that adorn them should also be special and that can be judged only through the clarity. The clarity of the diamond is rated. The highest rated diamonds for clarity are graded as IF or VVS1. However, if your budget doesn’t allow you to buy them then look for the diamonds that are clear. The diamond you choose should look clear to eye and nothing more. You don’t go around carrying the certificate saying that your diamond is the best rated.

Next comes, the color of the diamonds. Based on the color diamonds are rated D through I. It is suggested again that instead of going by the color in the certificate buy the one that looks the best and fits your budget the best. The difference in the color is not very significant hence there is no point in spending more for a diamond just because it is rated D, engagement rings are not meant to be harsh on the budget.

Another basic fact known to all is higher the carat value better is the diamond. Your jewelry costs high if it is studded with a diamond of high carat value. There are certain round weights like .5 ct, 1ct, 1.5 ct, 2ct and so on. Diamonds that weigh a carat less than these weights are cheaper. So look for them to make a good deal for your money.

Cheap Contracts: Get a Handset at an Affordable Rate

Leave a comment

Cheap contracts help you get a handset at an affordable price rate. Connectivity is not so much of a tough task, but availing a mobile phone is definitely not an easy mission. There are so many varieties and price rates that one can actually get lost in the midst of trying to make a sound decision.

Mobiles are a necessity beyond any doubt and everyone should possess one for convenience sake and for basic as well as urgent requirements. But, the bug human cry is that some individuals cannot seem to afford the handsets sold in the UK markets thus making it tough for many to own one and make maximum use of it.

But with the support and guidance of this particular deal it is all possible. This contract also gives you more than just a mere handset from a well reputed brand at a reasonable MRP. It also hands over a few extra incentives and benefits like that of discounts, coupons, free line rental, free after sales services, free mobile insurance, free mobile accessories and much more.

Cheap Contracts are specifically intended to cater to the needs of those consumers who are found struggling with their financial status. Every individual needs a handset, even the lower class and those who earn very little. So why not give them a chance to own one? Hence, this offer makes their dreams come true.

There are so many world class mobile phone companies that manufacture handsets with the best of basics and sell them at a reasonable rate for the convenience of those who have a small budget. LG, Motorola, Samsung, HTC, Sony Ericsson and Nokia are just a few names that make such offers.
