Stephan Smith (751 words)
The rough mix of the song, from recordings for his upcoming album, is the first song Stephan is releasing under his born name, Stephan Said (pronounced Sayeed), reclaiming his Iraqi heritage.
As Stephan says, "I want this song, "Another World Is Possible" to be free information to help inspire those of us working to build that next world, the way the newspapers and songs of the Indian independence movement, and the early civil rights movement, and others were.
This song is free because it has to be free." Please help us spread the song.
Galvanization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (618 words)
This remains a useful and broadly applied technology, but the term "galvanization" has largely come to be associated with zinc coatings, to the exclusion of other metals.
In current use, it typically means hot-dip galvanizing, a chemical process that is used to coat steel or iron with zinc.
Galvanic protection (also known as sacrificial-anode or cathodic protection) can be achieved by connecting zinc both electronically (often by direct bonding to the protected metal) and ionically (by submerging both into the same body of elecrolyte, such as a drop of rain).
