Remember The Miners Announces Fundraising Partnership with Little General Stores














(PRWEB) June 20, 2011

Remember The Miners, a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring coal miners and their legacy through public awareness campaigns and charitable contributions, is excited to announce a new fundraising campaign with Little General Stores.

To kick off this fundraising effort, Greg Darby of Little General will donate $ 5000 to Remember The Miners at the 22nd Annual Little General Golf Outing June 23rd. Little General will also be the point of sale for Remember The Miners’ Awareness Magnets, which are shaped like the helmet of a West Virginia coal miner. The sale of these Awareness Magnets benefits Remember The Miners’ flagship scholarship fund, the Remember The Miners Scholars Program. Each helmet retails for $ 5 and can be used to display support for the hardworking people of the mining industry. Little General will be donating directly to the scholarship through the sale of these magnets.

“We’re asking people to purchase these Awareness Magnets and to put them on their car to display support for our miners and the Scholars Program,” stated Jason Parsons of Remember The Miners. “Little General Stores are the perfect partner for Remember The Miners; their West Virginia pride and desire to give back to the community are an excellent fit with Remember The Miners’ commitment to the people of the mining industry.”

Remember The Miners and the West Virginia Coal Foundation created the Remember the Miners Scholars Program to support families of the West Virginia mining community. Applications to the Scholars Program open June 20th, and can be found here.

Applicants must be past or present miners, a dependent of a miner, or those pursuing higher education in the mining industry. Recipients of the scholarship will receive between $ 1500-$ 5000 twice yearly, covering both Spring and Fall semesters. Applications must include a 250-word essay about the importance of mining and its future in America.

Applications must be submitted online or postmarked by August 5th if mailed. All relevant materials should be submitted to Remember The Miners, Suncrest Corporate Center, PO Box 330, Morgantown, WV 26505.

“I’m proud to support the efforts of Remember the Miners. The Scholars Program will support West Virginia’s coal mining families and Little General proudly stands with those families- today and everyday,” stated Greg Darby of Little General Stores. “This $ 5,000 gift will kick off Little General’s commitment to support Remember The Miners and the West Virginia Coal Foundation in their efforts.”

Little General Stores are a West Virginia cultural relic, with over 85 locations and a reputation for being charitable. Little General Stores have donated and raised a million dollars in charitable giving in recent years, benefiting a variety of national and home state organizations like Remember The Miners.

Coach Bob Huggins, Honorary Chair of Remember The Miners and who will also be present at the 22nd Annual Little General Golf Outing, added, “The work of Remember the Miners, the West Virginia Coal Foundation and my friend Greg Darby and Little General is to be commended. I’m proud to be a supporter of Remember the Miners, especially the Scholars Program. West Virginia’s coal miners are the best people in the world and just as they support West Virginia’s team – the Mountaineers – I will always stand with them.”

General Photonics Announces Distributed Polarization Crosstalk Analyzer for Fiber Gyro Coil Inspection, Stress Sensing, Infrastructure Stress Monitoring and More

Posted by on January 19, 2011 1 comment

General Photonics Announces Distributed Polarization Crosstalk Analyzer for Fiber Gyro Coil Inspection, Stress Sensing, Infrastructure Stress Monitoring and More











Chino, CA (PRWEB) June 13, 2011

General Photonics, a market leader in optical polarization control and optical polarization measurement, today announced the general release of its PolaX™ (PXA-1000) distributed polarization crosstalk (x-talk) analyzer. It is an enhanced version of a white light interferometer designed to obtain space-resolved stress information by analyzing stress-induced polarization cross-coupling along a length of polarization maintaining (PM) fiber.

PolaX’s optical design eliminates the strong zero-order interference and reduces the multi-coupling interference common in traditional white light interferometers, both of which can cause “ghost” peaks in the measured signal. The removal of the “ghost” peaks enables PolaX to unambiguously identify the magnitudes and locations of actual x-talk peaks, resulting in higher measurement sensitivity, higher dynamic range, and higher spatial measurement accuracy than traditional white light interferometers.

“Our PolaX solution features advanced capabilities that include a high spatial resolution of 5 cm; the ability to use PM fiber as an intrinsic sensing element; a polarization cross-talk sensitivity of -95 dB and much more,” said Ken Hargrove, VP of Sales and Marketing for General Photonics. “As such, it is well suited for a myriad of applications that include distributed stress sensing of PM fiber; structural change monitoring in bridges, tunnels, dams and buildings as well as intrusion detection. It’s also ideal for PM fiber and fiber coil quality inspection, fiber coil winding in-process monitoring and quality inspection, and other such applications.”

PolaX enables the use of the PM fiber itself as the sensing medium, eliminating the need to place multiple fiber gratings along the fiber. It can obtain higher spatial resolution of the stress distribution compared to grating-based systems. Because no discrete sensing elements are required, the system is easy to install and calibrate, making it ideal for monitoring space-resolved structural changes along bridges, tunnels, dams, oil pipes, or buildings. It can also be used as an intrusion detection system, because any mechanical disturbances to the PM fiber will cause polarization coupling. Another important application is PM fiber quality inspection. PolaX easily identifies defective sections of PM fiber.

PolaX is also ideal for quality inspection and screening of PM fiber coils, since it can pinpoint the locations of imperfections or areas of local stress on the fiber coil induced during the fiber winding process. PolaX comes with a notebook computer equipped with General Photonics’ PolaXView™ software, which displays the location and polarization coupling ratio of each stress point as a function of distance, and flags stress points with polarization coupling above a user defined trigger threshold. A quality inspection report window indicates the pass/fail status of the PM fiber or PM fiber coil, with a list of the locations and polarization coupling strengths of all stress points.

Other applications for PolaX include measuring the extremely high polarization extinction ratio of a polarizing waveguide; obtaining the autocorrelation function of a light source; measuring the birefringence of a PM fiber and the lengths of PM and SM fibers; and matching the optical path lengths of an interferometer.

Summary of Technical Specifications

General Photonics’ PolaX features an operating wavelength range of 1310 or 1550 nm. The polarization x-talk dynamic range is 75 dB and the sensitivity is -95 dB. Polarization x-talk resolution and accuracy are 0.25 dB and 0.5 dB, respectively. The operating temperature is 10 – 50 degrees Celsius. PolaX features a USB communications interface for use with the accompanying notebook computer.

Pricing and Availability

The PolaX is available immediately. Interested parties may contact General Photonics direct or a General Photonics channel partner near them for additional availability and pricing details.

About General Photonics

Founded in 1995, General Photonics is an award-winning world leader in the design and development of advanced optical polarization instruments; timing management instruments, optical modules and optical components. Its products are used worldwide in applications such as fiber optic communications networks; test and measurement applications such as for coherent detection systems; fiber optic sensor systems; medical imaging equipment and other applications. General Photonics, a privately-held company, maintains its headquarters and a manufacturing facility in Chino, Calif. An Engineering Center of Excellence and technical support team is located in Beijing, China. The company also uses a worldwide network of sales distributors and representatives.
