Technical News Article Exerpt : Blu-ray Technology

To understand how Blu-ray technology can surpass DVD material capacity by such a significant amount, it is essential to know how disc technology works in the first place. Surprisingly, modern disc technology has its roots in the record playing, which originated in the mid 1800’s. Records worked through grooves on which a needle ran across, thus producing sounds based on the modulations in the grooves. Put very simply the grooves held information, and the needle retrieved the information.

Laser disc technology works much the same way. DVD technology utilizes red lasers with a 650 nanometer wavelength to read information stored between two polycarbonate layers. Blu-ray technology expands on this capability by using blue-violet lasers (thus the name Blu-ray). Blue-violet lasers have a wavelength of 405 nm, which is significantly shorter than the red laser wavelength, therefore permitting Blu-ray lasers more precision and accuracy. They can essentially read grooves that are twice as small as those on a DVD. In addition, Blu-ray discs store data on top of a 1.1 mm polycarbonate layer, rather than between two polycarbonate layers. This disc design reduces the chances that the laser light will diffuse and cause data retrieval problems.



Local News Article Sample : Local Snowmobile Race Returns to the Saint Regis River!

A little known event here in the North Country is the annual snowmobile race on the Saint Regis River between Brasher Falls and Helena. This year the race took place on Saturday and Sunday, February 24th and 25th, respectively. Every year area residents take part in this drag-style sled race which starts across from the Weller residence on Co. Rte. 53 in Brasher. Food and refreshments are sponsored by the infamous Tri-Town Packing Co., and the event was, as always, free to anyone who cared to participate.

If you’re sorry missed the excitement this year, we recommend stopping by Tri-Town Packing sometime before Valentine’s Day next year. They’ll be happy to update you on the 2008 event dates and times.
