Lee de Forest

King of Radio, Television, and Film

By: Mike Adams

The life-long inventor, Lee de Forest invented the three-element vacuum tube used between 1906 and 1916 as a detector, amplifier, and oscillator of radio waves. Beginning in 1918 he began to develop a light valve, a device for writing and reading sound using light patterns. While he received many patents for his process, he was initially ignored by the film industry. In order to promote and demonstrate his process he made several hundred sound short films, he rented space for their showing; he sold the tickets and did the publicity to gain audiences for his invention. Lee de Forest officially brought sound to film in 1919. Lee De Forest: King of Radio, Television, and Film is about both invention and early film making; de Forest as the scientist and producer, director, and writer of the content. This book tells the story of de Forest’s contribution in changing the history of film through the incorporation of sound. The text includes primary source historical material, U.S. patents and richly-illustrated photos of Lee de Forest’s experiments. Readers will greatly benefit from an understanding of the transition from silent to audio motion pictures, the impact this had on the scientific community and the popular culture, as well as the economics of the entertainment industry.

Implementing a CPI Culture

For any Organization, Military or Commercial

By: MAQ; Mike Maquet

Implementing a CPI Culture is written as a "HOW TO" Book which includes everything an organization needs to know when they are either trying out some process improvement activities or are Implementing a Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) Culture across their entire organization. CPI is the fluid combination of principles and sub tools from the Process-Focused methodologies Lean, Six Sigma, and Theory of Constraints. This book is unique because it is applicable to Military Organizations as well as Commercial Businesses. MAQ has 35 years of experience in the USAF and US Army and helped generate the DoD CPI Guide. He is more than qualified to relate CPI to the Military environment. He is a certified Level 2 and 3 Mentor for the USAF. The techniques identified in this book have been proven successful at several Air Force and Army Bases as well as private businesses. They are similar to many techniques used throughout the Department of Defense and across industry. Although every Military Service is using a different combination of the three techniques; Lean, Six Sigma, and Theory of Constraints, CPI combines all these techniques into a single approach that makes the best use of each sub tool when it is appropriate. If you want to improve processes in your organization, this is the book to read and use. For more information on CPI, contact MAQ or Mike Maquet at www.m2mcpi.com.
