Titanium is harder to work than gold, but its lightness is ideal to carry out important jewels. This metal opens new possibilities for models made up of many stones. It has another characteristic which encourages the creativity: it changes color according to the heat to which it is worked. Titanium proposes itself a range going of the pink to blue while passing by chestnut and the yellow. Adler naturally chose titanium in order to present a collection of original pins, at the same time elegant and sporting. This traditional jewel covers a new youth with adler, which interprets the nodes, flowers, hearts and sheets with an innovating but always harmonious glance. Titanium gives life to the pin which is seen in charge with emotion and dynamism. adler finds balance between the lines and the colors, the movement and the glare, always in search of surprises.

Water Wonder’s fountains are handcrafted in California and available through the finest retailers around the world. They are formed from copper, natural slate, glass and gorgeous river stones. Custom, semi-custom and production models are made and all can be engraved with your message or logo.
Fountains provide the soothing relief of serene water sounds combined with the striking looks of sculpture with moving water. All of our fountains are designed to provide maximum water sound while utilizing whisper quiet pumps. The fountains have a water reservoir that recirculates. All you need is a power outlet and to periodically add water (larger installations can include an autofill system). Even the largest of our fountains can be set up by anyone with basic handyperson skills.
Treat your senses and your decor to the reinvigorating effects of this moving work of art.
As water continually cascades down the beautiful slate surface, it produces negative ions, which freshens the air, promotes a positive mood, and enhances your personal energy.
In addition, the calming sound of the water relaxes you and soothes your spirits while masking intrusive noises like traffic or office conversation.

The SAE World Congress continues to be the one forum that brings together vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, government, and academia from around the world for the exchange of ideas on the state of advanced automotive technology and business. This unique combination of technology, knowledge, and people-that takes place at industry’s most comprehensive technical learning event-creates a highly effective environment in which relationships are formed, innovative ideas born…and the groundwork laid for success in today’s global marketplace.
SAE received more than 2,300 technical paper abstracts for the 2006 technical session program. After a formal peer review process, final selections will be posted to the SAE website beginning in November, 2005. Included in the submissions are abstracts for these new technology areas as identified by host company, BMW Group: Hydrogen ICE and Hydrogen Car Design; Nanotechnology for Automotive Applications; Advanced Production Technologies; and Mechatronics.
Of the 2,300 abstracts submitted, more than 400 were offered in each of two general areas: Materials and Body Engineering.
