Subject: [TN] Element Quiz Question
Here is the Element Quiz Question:
The Question:
Alchemists in the Middle Ages knew about minerals that contained this element - when exposed to sunlight, the minerals would glow making them attractive for use by witches and alchemists. This element produces a green color in fireworks, signal flares and tracer rounds. This element is used as a radiocontrast agent for Xray imaging as far back as 1908. This element is used in the manufacture of beet sugar and soap. Which element is being described?

Week 51 Ravinder Ajmani, Western Digital
- I have a hectic week ahead, and I can really use help from the boys. I don't know much about their computer skills, but I need to carry out lot of simulation work. Since the work is mostly routine, I am sure they can pick it up fast. Then there are ESD measurements to be done. Since we are closed on Monday, they can enjoy long weekend with their families, and show up on Tuesday.
Week 52 Leland Woodall
- I'm going to have the boys to review the new IATF 16949 standard, and at the end of the week they can give me their take on how we're going to make the transition from TS. This will be an arduous task, as they usually get to just play while they're here. This time it's gotta be straight-up work. I've already apologized to them in advance...
Week 53 Scott Decker, UTAS
- As I mentioned, I submitted the answer in conjunction with a co-worker
that will be able to use one of the guys, (not sure who will do what just
yet) to help him move from his office here in Phoenix, to Winserlocks CT.
for a bit. For me, I'll have whichever one he doesn't pick, help me out with some things on a PCB update that has a lot of stuff to fix. I may also have him work on getting a couple of other boards ready for review.
Regardless, they are going to be busy this week, I hope they don't mind being separated for a bit.
Week 54 ????
- assisted with ????
I hope everyone has a awesome week!
