  De Sympiëzometer van Alexander Adie
Adie had a particular interest in meteorological instruments and was apprentice to his uncle, John Miller, a prominent Scottish instrument maker, becoming his partner in 1804.
Adie provided his instrument with a sliding temperature correction scale, which enabled the user to adjust the barometric scale to compensate for the effect of temperature upon the oil-filled tube, according to the thermometer reading.
Adie's original intention had been to create a barometer that would be easier in use and less cumbersome and fragile than existing maritime models, which consisted of a long mercury tube.

 Brook's draft
ADIE has to be able to look at the different models that are being developed or recommended, suggest what is appropriate for each stage of the educational/evaluation process, and investigate different ways of providing them.
ADIE might address not only the data standardization issues from the point of view of facilitating retrieval, but also the cataloging and descriptive needs that will make it possible to tell if the information is potentially valuable.
ADIE can demonstrate ways of collecting and storing such information with the least possible effort involved, but in such a way that the parts of it that will be needed for analysis or presentation can be retrieved and converted into more standard and manipulable formats.

 Jesusfreakhideout.com: Adie, "Don't Wait" Review   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Under the moniker Adie, Adrienne releases Don't Wait, a stylistic departure from her previous band that is likely to appease old fans while attracting the attention of many new ones.
The same can be said for some of the more worship-minded songs, yet Adie makes sure to stay far enough away from some of the common cliches of the genre to stand up on her own.
Adie's unique vocals are much more reserved here as well, at times seemingly missing the passion and flair they possessed on her previous projects.
