MMM do we have the freedom to not obey the law . WOW when did we get that .
If they do, they will kill businesses from growing throughout the city. It will stop people from coming into the city (Such as myself).
They tried cameras in Steubenville and failed. Not only did Steubenville have to take the cameras down, the city lost money.
When Youngstown officals do these studies, they base them off affluent citites, like Parma, and Columbus. Youngstown is more like Toledo and Steubenville. Honestly, I feel, if they install traffic cameras city wide, it will be the final "nail in the coffin" for the City of Youngstown.
Traffic Cameras will not stop murders.
But who in their right mind would stop at a red light on the East Side after dark even if a camera is posted!!!!!! ?????? LMAO
Traffic accidents have risen 44% in the Tampa/St petersburg Fl. area where red light cameras have been installed.So more problems after the cameras instralled, imagine that another government boondoggle
Of course they'll expand the use of these cameras. They're all about moneymaking - they will not boost safety in school zones one iota. And claims that they stop crime and so on are flat out lies. Right in front of those cameras, you can drive on the sidewalk, you can wave guns or swords or any weapon around, point them at people - even use them to kill someone. You can deal drugs out of your car right in front of it. Hookers can hook right in front of it. As long as nobody speeds, it will sit there doing nothing.
Now, if you're driving, say, southbound in front of one of those cameras, and are in range of the camera while a northbound driver is speeding, how does it know which car in the photograph is speeding? It doesn't. Do both cars' owners get tickets?
All these things are is a way to extract more money from a taxed-out public.
This is like a poll question that would have been around in 1945... Do you think there will be TVs in every home eventually? Of course as time goes on more and more technology will be used to enforce laws, along with the creeping "big brother" attitude of government. Unfortunately most people want a nanny state to coddle us.
if it is profitable then yes as many as the city needs then comes the GM exemption and then the other UAW made cars

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
To call something a "series of mini-series" seems a bit clunky, doesn't it? There should be a better, agreed-upon term for comics published in short bursts of story arcs, only to return after a hiatus with a new No. 1 issue and new storyline. Mind you, that's a difficult mode of publishing to define: Do canceled ongoings count as a series of miniseries? What about hasty "reboots" or creative-team switches that lead to the renumbering of a title? And how do you even sell a book that comes with an expiration date?
There's a habit of readers jumping ship after an ongoing has announced its final-issue date, and people are frequently more comfortable waiting for the trade paperback when they know there's only going to be so many issues. Series of miniseries (see how awkward that is?) are a low-investment opportunity, both monetarily and plot-wise.
And yet they really work when the right effort is put in. They keep heroes that have been relegated to the back burner fresh in everyone's mind without adding yet another character to the Avengers roster. The arcs they follow might be smaller in scope, but they give a bigger focus to the hero at hand. I'd much rather read a series of minis about a fan favorite than watch the character jockey for space in an event title or (again, because I pick on them) an Avengers series.
Digital comics | ComiXology CEO David Steinberger dicusses the growth of the digital-comics platform, which was the top-grossing non-game iPad app for the third year in a row. "We're finding that a larger and larger percentage of our user base — our new user base — is people who are buying comics for the very first time with us," he tells Wired. Steinberger also hints at a next step for comiXology: curation. [Wired.com]

Marvel and Playdom's popular Facebook game Marvel Avengers Alliance has held several special missions since it launched, but I think this latest one may be my favorite.
The game, which has been around since early 2012, allows players to control a SHIELD agent and team up with various Marvel characters, sending them on the hunt for silver as they fight through the ranks of Marvel's baddest villains. In addition to the regular game, players are also treated to special limited-time operations every so often, which are sometimes based on storylines from the comics — recent ones drew from "Dark Reign" and Infinity.
And as cool as the Infinity one was (it introduced Thane before the comic did), the current one can be summed up in one word: Arcade. Ok, two words: Murderworld!
Avengers Arena is unfair. From the initial announcement of this book, it had everything going against it. We were going to lose one of the very few strong teen books to make way for an obvious cash grab for the Hunger Games scene and, by age discrimination alone, force young heroes to hunt and kill one another. Raise your hand if you were hoping to just get a new Runaways book? These are some fan-favorite characters here, seen in drips and drabs, and when they finally get some on-panel time, we find they're nothing more than targets in an absurd trap set by villainous joke Arcade. Arcade! Their lives were in peril thanks to low-rent Elton John with a Rube Goldberg fetish!
But the worst sin of Avengers Arena is that it's actually really good.
Yeah, I am absolutely serious. Avengers Arena has surprising potential, and it has introduced some interesting characters and developments that keep me grudgingly coming back each issue. It's hard to admit that, considering how much I really wanted to hate this book, based on little more than its Battle Royale cover. Despite the calm, honest words of Avengers Academy writer Christos Gage when he asked readers to give the new book a chance, the whole premise turned me off. When the first issue of Avengers Arena came out and we lost our first teen hero, that death proved how right I was. Why trust a book that's just going to kill everything you love? And why kids?
It seems unnecessarily cruel to put together an ongoing series promoted to us as sensationally as possible. Don't get too attached to anyone! Kids will die! They might even kill each other! The shock value of teens in terror can pull the reader right out of the narrative and forces us to look at the value of the story line than just enjoying the ride. Kids have to be killed for a reason, not just as scare tactics and and cheap heat.
So why does the death of children hit us harder than your usual comic book demise? Why is the loss of a child's life so difficult to bear in the super-heroic medium? And why in heaven's name do I keep reading Avengers Arena?
Welcome to the very last Food or Comics. Next week our new-release picks will take a different format, but this week we're still talking about what comics we'd buy at our local shop based on certain spending limits — $15 and $30 — as well as what we'd get if we had extra money or a gift card to spend on a splurge item.
Check out Diamond's release list or ComicList, and tell us what you're getting in our comments field.

Let's be honest, if I had $15, I'd make sure that Batman Incorporated #8 (DC Comics, $2.99) was first on my list. Not because of any controversy — I've been enjoying the series all along — but because I'd be worried it'd sell out if I waited. I'd also grab two Dynamite books: Jennifer Blood #23 and Masks #4 (both $3.99); Al Ewing has done just insane, amazing things on the former, and the Chris Roberson/Dennis Calero team on the latter is just killing it.
If I had $30, I'd find myself time traveling to all the weeks prior in which I didn't use all $30 to borrow a dollar from past-me, just so that I could get Showcase Presents Justice League of America, Vol. 6 (DC Comics, $19.99), which takes the series firmly into the 1970s and brings the team face to face with villains including the Shaggy Man, Amazo and countless other favorites of my childhood.
Should I have some splurging left in me after that nostalgia-fest, I'd likely go for the Judge Anderson: PSI Files, Vol. 3 collection (Rebellion, $32.99), which picks the series up just after I'd dropped off the 2000AD radar for awhile, and hopefully gives me the chance to get back into the character, now that I am firmly into Thrill Power again.

If I had $15, I'd be tempted to blow it all on the recolored Death of Superman collection for the '90s nostalgia. But then I'd probably flip through it and come to my senses, and instead get something new like Fatale #12 ($3.50) by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, which looks like it's going to be a trip, flashing back to Medieval times but self-contained as a good entry point for new readers. That's smart comics. Speaking of smarty-pants, I'd probably get The Manhattan Projects #9 ($3.50) by Jonathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra. It's the first part of a two-part story about scientists trying to take over the world. There will probably be lots of words that leave me dizzy. I likely wouldn't be able to resist Matt Wagner writing The Shadow: Year One #1 ($3.99) because, you know, The Shadow knows. I haven't been following IDW's G.I. Joe universe but G.I. Joe #1 ($3.99) by Fred Van Lente and Steve Kurth seems like a good opportunity to try it out. And I'd finish it off with Cyber Force #3 by Marc Silvestri and Koi Pham because it's free.
With $30, I would add to the above. Darkhawk is on the cover of Avengers Arena #4 ($2.99) by Dennis Hopeless and Alessandro Vitti, so I'd be compelled to buy that. I've been meaning to check out Erik Burnham and Dan Schoening's Ghostbusters since I hear it's real fun, so the relaunched Ghostbusters #1 ($3.99) is a perfect opportunity. Morning Glories #24 ($2.99) by Nick Spencer and Joe Eisma seems too intriguing to pass up. I am so behind on the X-books, but I'd be real tempted to try Brian Michael Bendis and Chris Bachalo's Uncanny X-Men #1 ($3.99).
My splurge item would be tough. I'd be real tempted to get either the Iron Man Omnibus collecting the entire run of David Michelinie, Bob Layton and John Romita Jr., including the famous alcoholism story, or Counter X: Generation X – Four Days by Brian Wood. But I'd probably end up instead getting the Daredevil By Mark Waid, Vol. 1 hardcover for $35. I don't know, do I need to justify this purchase? It's probably the most beloved superhero comic of last year, maybe for the last couple of years. It paved the way for similarly rejuvenating series at Marvel like Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, and Young Avengers. The art by Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin is swoon-worthy. And it wants to be on my bookshelf, dagnabbit!
While it's not uncommon to see fans organize in an attempt to save a low-selling comic, it's rare to see them actually seek a title's demise. However, that's the goal of a petition at Change.org, which calls for the cancellation of Avengers Arena, the new Marvel series whose kill-or-be-killed competition premise has invited comparisons to Battle Royale and The Hunger Games.
What's more, the petitioners ask Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso to "retcon the deaths" that have occurred so far in the comic — there are three to date — which is referred to on the website as a "travesty against fans." As of this morning, just 61 people had signed on.
Avengers Arena, which launched in December as part of the Marvel NOW! initiative, finds 16 young heroes transported to Arcade's Murderworld, where they're forced to fight each other in a series of death matches. "[T]he story is about choices," writer Dennis Hopeless told Comic Book Resources this week. "These young people have to make some very difficult choices that will affect the course of the rest of their lives — What would you do to protect yourself or your friends? What are you willing to sacrifice? Who are you willing to leave behind? What can you live with? They're in no way ready to make these decisions, but they have to. To me, that's what makes a teenage superhero death match relatable. Life is about choices and being young is about making choices you don't fully understand. Take all the fantasy elements away and Murderworld starts to sound a lot like high school."
However, the petition's creator clearly doesn't view the series as an exploration of deeper themes, but rather as a cold grab for sales.
Sixteen heroes enter, one hero leaves in Avengers Arena, the new Marvel NOW! series by Dennis Hopeless, Kev Walker and Allesandro Vitti. At least that's the plan of the diabolical Arcade, who drops such young Marvel characters as X-23, Reptil, Nico, Chase, and Juston and his Sentinel into Murderworld for a twisted kill-or-be-killed reality-show scenario.
Marvel has provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive preview of Avengers Arena #4, by Hopeless and Vitti, which the solicitation text teases pits the Runaways against Avengers Academy. The issue goes on sale Feb. 13.
This week saw the release of another Marvel NOW! title, but this one was a little bit different than the others. For one thing, it isn't a relaunch of an existing title — at least, not directly — and it's gotten some attention already for its similarities to The Hunger Games and Battle Royale. Avengers Arena, by Dennis Hopeless, Kev Walker and Frank Martin, has the classic X-Men villain Arcade kidnapping 16 young Marvel heroes and throwing them into Murderworld, where it's kill or be killed. Plus, y'know, it's Murderworld, so there's more to worry about than just your temporary ally turning on you.
So does the book deliver, or does it leave you "hungering" for something else? (Ack, that's bad; sorry about that). Here are a few reviews from around the web:
Greg McElhatton, Comic Book Resources: "After an opening sequence set (presumably) near the end of the series' set-up, Hopeless re-introduces readers to the characters that he's lined up to get kidnapped by Arcade in the latest iteration of his Murderworld complex. Here, these sixteen characters are given 30 days to kill or be killed, with only one allowed to be standing at the end of the time period. If this sounds a little bit like The Hunger Games (or going further back, Battle Royale or even The Long Walk), you aren't alone in that assessment. Hopeless has Arcade acknowledge the similarity and move forward from there, a nod to the connection between the two. But once you get past that, there's actually less to get worked up over than you might suspect." (2.5/5)
Legal | A Belgian court of appeals has ruled that Tintin in the Congo is not racist and stated that the book has "gentle and candid humour." The ruling came in a case brought in 2007 by Bienvenu Mbutu Mondondo, an immigrant from the Congo, and the Belgian Council of Black Associations. Although Herge himself expressed regret in later life for the book, which includes numerous depictions of black characters as stupid and inferior, the court did not support the plaintiffs' claim that "The negative stereotypes portrayed in this book are still read by a significant number of children. They have an impact on their behaviour." [Sky News]
Marvel is shaking up its sandbox like seldom before with the launch of Marvel NOW!, making co-stars out of characters that previously had only brief interactions with each other. This strategy of mixing and matching for team books could inject new life into character dynamics, or it could water down what makes characters unique.
At the end of 2004, Marvel and writer Brian Michael Bendis got flak for putting perpetual loner Spider-Man and X-Men-exclusive Wolverine on the same team as Avengers standbys Iron Man and Captain America for the launch of New Avengers. While there are still some fans who complain about this eight years later, sales told Marvel all the publisher needed to know. Soon Luke Cage was an Avenger. Daredevil, too (in a way). Wolverine became a member of everything. Namor became an X-Man. (The Namor I used to read would respond to such a notion with, "the Sub-Mariner will star in thine own perpetually canceled solo series or none at all! Imperius Rex!")
Now the unexpected mashing together of characters is reaching a new level after the ultimate sandbox throwdown of Avengers vs. X-Men. Who would ever have guessed that Thor and Havok would be teammates (Uncanny Avengers)? New Mutants Cannonball and Sunspot on Hickman's Avengers is madness! Putting the Punisher on a superhero team (Thunderbolts) is so blasphemous to writer Greg Rucka, he's done with the character (OK, among some other factors). And Avengers Arena is a veritable grab bag: throw in some Runaways, some Avengers Academy, some Annihilation, and shake vigorously.
Last week Marvel unveiled Dave Johnson's terrific homage to the Battle Royale movie poster with his cover for the first issue of Avengers Arena, a series launching as part of Marvel NOW! in which 16 young heroes are pitted against each other for entertainment by Arcade. Continuing the brutal theme of child versus child, The Beat now has the first look at Chris Bachalo's cover for Issue 2, a clever ode to Baron Storrey's illustration for the 1980 Perigree edition of Lord of the Flies, by William Golding.
Maybe we should've expected more homages when editor Bill Rosemann dropped a handful of allusions in a Q&A last week at Marvel.com: "Avengers Arena gives a high concept itch a superhuman scratch. Throughout history, societies have sent their young adults against one another in competition, whether that's in war, sports or American Idol. Likewise, art has examined this phenomenon of the older generation sacrificing the younger generation—and also of young warring gangs wanting to prove who's #1—in everything from the myth of Theseus vs. the Minotaur to Lord of the Flies to Battle Royale to Starship Troopers to Survivor to Hunger Games. Teen vs. teen competition is as old as storytelling—but now it's time to give it the Marvel twist."
Perhaps then we should look for those Starship Troopers and Hunger Games (ahem) tributes with issues 3 and 4. Avengers Arena, by Dennis Hopeless and Kev Walker, debuts in December.

By Pfc. Sean McGuireMarch 30, 2010
FORT HOOD, Texas - On most occasions, when interacting with students and teachers through an Adopt-a-School program, Soldiers from the 61st Multifunctional Medical Battalion and 21st Combat Support Hospital conduct math tutoring and leadership courses twice a month. But students from the Edwards Academy High School, out of Temple, Texas, got a unique field trip experience Mar. 23 at the Fort Hood Medical Training Simulation Center.
Soldiers, along with instructors and noncommissioned officers for the simulation center, started the morning by teaching students how to use a stretcher. The students were also given a tour of the facility before they ripped into the Army's pre-packaged Meals-Ready-to-Eat, known as MREs, at lunchtime.
The main event came soon after the class of predominately juniors and seniors had eaten; it was a team-building race through the obstacle course normally reserved for Soldiers. Built to test the medical and tactical skills of U.S. troops, the simulation center became a gauntlet in the face of the students.
"This was a great idea for these kids. It's a way to create an understanding of what a Soldier's life can be in combat," said 1st Lt. Jennifer Moore, commander for Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, 61st MMB (Rear Detachment).
Prior to tackling the obstacle course, MTSC instructors foreshadowed what the students would face by telling them: "You're going to get tired. You're going to get dirty. You may even get angry. But you'll need to work as a team."
Aaron Jackson showed his competitive side as his team set out from the start line carrying a dummy casualty on a stretcher. Jackson is a high school senior who said he plans to attend Temple College after he graduates.
"I feel bad. I feel like I could have done better," said Jackson as he winced in pain holding his ankle which he rolled when his team had to lift the dummy casualty above their heads.
Students rounded off their training day with the Soldiers of the 1st Medical Brigade, 13th Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), with lessons on applying a tourniquet, and proper hydration.
"Our students have gained a great depth of knowledge of service and what Soldiers do for this country," said Sharon Holleman, the assistant principal and an administrator for Edwards Academy. Holleman was motivating her students throughout the morning's raucous agenda.
Moore thinks there is a good reason her Soldiers have had success with the students from Edwards Academy. "Our Soldiers are not that much older than a lot of the students, so I think they relate to them."
"These are teachable moments these Soldiers are providing, and this medical training exposes our students to the knowledge that they need - education and compassion for their fellow man," said Holleman.

"Early Spring Trip" Farmington by deecat
Farmington Travel Guide: 26 reviews and 98 photos
After a dreadful winter here in Libertyville, Illinois in 2011, we decided that we needed a break from the cold and snow. We decided to stay in a town about an hour away from St. Louis, Missouri, called FARMINGTON.
We used our time share power and reserved a week at Summer Bay Resorts Crown Pointe Lodge in Famington, Missouri. Ironically, my trip in January to Las Vegas was spent in another Summer Bay Resorts!
While in Farmington, Missouri, we took several hikes in the many parks in and around the area.
- Pros:Friendly, helpful people, great parks, vineyards, Great choices in Restaurants
- Cons:Lots of "sprawl" with a multitude of Fast Food and Strip Malls
- In a nutshell:Nice sized town with plenty to do

I have lived in Mo and Ks a long time and yet to get to here- It reads like a very nice place to spend some time
Love the Elephant Rock Dee! My boys would love to climb all over them. Looks like a place I would love to explore. Thanks for sharing it.
Hi, Dee! ~ You have managed to discover a lot of interesting places! Thanks for your wonderful story with brilliant photographs! ~ ><><><
Dee, gorgeous page about Farmington here. I especially like the restaurant tips and the photos of the yummy food. I would love to see the tigers of the Tiger Sanctuary.
I so enjoyed exploring Farmington with you - your pages are always so informative and readable :-) Pickle Springs looks beautiful, even if it does sounds like a relish factory! And I would love to see the tigers, and to visit St Genevieve, which looks like just my sort of town :-)
Lovely travel pages of Farmington town with wonderful restaurants. It seems an interesting town to visit and explore with lots of nature sanctuaries and parks. We especially like the Elephant Rocks and Hawn State Parks. ~ho & pang
A very happy Birthday, Dee. !Loved your Farmington pages. What on earth is 'pulled' pork?
Yum, those pulled pork sandwiches look delicious. The Tiger Sanctuary and the Factory look like wonderful places to visit.
Nice page Dee. Particularly interested in Timeshare. We will visit Grand Canyon May'12 & have T/S weeks banked RCI & DAE in Australia. Looking for exchanges, how easy is availability?
Sounds like you had a great break from the long cold winter, a good place to stay in and with nice hiking trails nearby. We also had a very long cold winter, and to get a break from it means a lot.

Same here... Sort of disappointing with a forum that nobody can post in.
Also, not much quick info about shortcode and such.
Seems like this is broken?
I had the same problem but it was just a plugin conflict, to find if it's a struggle with any of other plugins disable all plugins except mingle forum and check if it works; then enable one by one to find the guilty one. Most of the time it's a conflict with security plugins :-)
John, did you manage to resolve the problem? I'm suddenly having the same problem myself in the forum I created for our community website at :
I'm not able to create a new topic or reply to any posts. When I hit the "Submit" button I get sent to the Page Not Found error message.
Did you manage to find out which plugin has a conflict with Mingle Forum?
@ nashamiki I just had a look on your forum, follow these steps and check if any of them solve the problem, hope it helps:
1- disable "Use SEO friendly URLs" via mingle options
2- disable your security plugins like bwps or ose firewall
3- omit any recound string from your htaccess
4- reset your db mingle fields and optimize it through phpmyadmin
5- if they didn't work don't hesitate to announce ;)

Catalyzed growth of carbon nanoparticles by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition and their field emission properties91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1419212View Description Hide Description
Carbonnanoparticles were prepared from and by microwaveplasma chemical vapor deposition at various temperatures as low as 250 °C by using nickel and iron as catalysts. The carbonnanoparticles are well graphitized until a temperature as low as 400 °C, and the degree of graphitization increases with increasing growth temperature.Field emission measurements showed that the carbonnanoparticles are excellent electron field emitters, comparable to carbon nanotubes. Field emissionproperties became better with increasing growth temperature, and the threshold fields of the carbonnanoparticles deposited at 400, 500, 670 °C, were 3.2, 3, and 1 V/μm, respectively. No emission was observed for the carbonnanoparticles deposited below 400 °C. The low threshold field of the carbonnanoparticles is attributed to field enhancement effect and the higher degree of graphitization.
Evaporation of liquid during cone-jet mode electrospraying91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1420762View Description Hide Description
Heating and evaporation in the liquid meniscus during the cone-jet mode of electrospraying have been investigated. An expression for the ratio between emitted and evaporated liquid volumes has been developed and verified by experiment. This work indicates how the emitted liquid yield can be increased.
Electrochromic writing and erasing on tungsten oxide films in air by scanning tunneling microscopy91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1424053View Description Hide Description
The scanning tunneling microscope(STM) was used for both spot coloring and bleaching on thin films. By wetting the STM tip with 1 M KOH solutions or de-ionized water before the tip approached, and keeping the humidity higher than 40%, the electrochemicalreaction occurred at the tip–surface gap while the electrochromic reactions took place at the film surface. With a constant negative sample bias and grounded tip, a brown color circle or a light blue disk was formed on the surface with an enlarged diameter. The circle and disk formations were attributed to the production of alkali and hydrogen tungsten bronzes. By applying a positive sample bias with a grounded tip, the color of the hydrogen tungsten bronze could be bleached. The cathodic reduction of forms a color center at the site, while the anodic reaction removes an electron from the color center state. Raman spectroscopy indicated that for the colored state, the frequency for the W–O bond stretching mode increased, while for the W=O bonds it decreased.
Microstructural characterization of rf sputtered polycrystalline silicon germanium films91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423388View Description Hide Description
Polycrystallinesilicongermaniumfilmsdeposited by the rf sputtering technique were characterized using a combination of transmission electron microscopy(TEM),atomic force microscopy(AFM),x-ray diffraction(XRD), and Raman spectroscopy techniques. The TEM results showed small grains (10–20 nm) with microtwins, and AFM showed islands of 100–200 nm in the films. The XRD results show that our films consist of alloy with no cluster of Ge or a Ge-rich material embedded in a Si matrix. The smaller grains in our films could be a result of an abundance of nucleating sites or impurities in the films. Raman spectroscopy results indicate that our films were strain free.
Molecular beam epitaxially grown n type using iodine91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423770View Description Hide Description
The molecular beam epitaxial growth and n type doping of have been investigated. The surface morphology has been determined via atomic force microscopy and is appreciably different from that of the (001) orientation; long ridges and trenches are observed whose height difference is considerably less than that of the nearly elliptically shaped mounds found in (001) alloys. The mobility has been optimized with regard to growth parameters such as the Hg/Te flux ratio resulting in a maximum value of for an undoped sample at low temperatures. n type has been grown using iodine in the form of as a dopant. The maximum electron concentration due to iodine doping has been determined after an Hgvacancyanneal to be Typical mobilities at low temperatures are and for electron concentration levels of and respectively. By means of secondary ion mass spectroscopy the iodine concentration has been determined and hence the degree of activation. The electron concentration is proportional to that of iodine with a 100% electrical activation for concentrations up to At higher concentrations compensation is observed.
Thermal carbonization of porous silicon surface by acetylene91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1421221View Description Hide Description
Three different thermal carbonization processes of porous silicon(PS)surface by acetylene occurring between 400 and 950 °C were observed by in situ measurements. The peak temperature of oxidation shifts from 300 to 600 °C and the activation energy from 130 to 500 kJ/mole in the samples treated at 900 °C compared to untreated PS. Using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), the bonding configurations associated with the temperature dependent processes were found. In the samples treated at or below 600 °C, traces of bonds were clearly seen, but above 600 °C the FTIRspectra started resemble those of the SiC. The graphitization process was found to take place on the surface of PS samples treated above 800 °C. By changing the time between the flush and thermal treatment, the graphitization can be controlled and even avoided. The weight increase was observed to be nearly proportional to the reduction of the surface area while the decrease in the surface area due to the thermal carbonization was found to be small. The origin of this phenomenon and the effects of other preparation parameters have been discussed.
Electron pulse broadening due to space charge effects in a photoelectron gun for electron diffraction and streak camera systems91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1419209View Description Hide Description
The electron pulse broadening and energy spread, caused by space charge effects, in a photoelectron gun are studied analytically using a fluid model. The model is applicable in both the photocathode-to-mesh region and the postanode electron drift region. It is found that space charge effects in the photocathode-to-mesh region are generally unimportant even for subpicosecond pulses. However, because of the long drift distance, electron pulse broadening due to space charge effects in the drift region is usually significant and could be much larger than the initial electron pulse duration for a subpicosecond electron pulse. Space charge effects can also lead to a considerable electron energy spread in the drift region. Temporal broadening is calculated for an initial electron pulse as short as 50 fs with different electron densities, final electron energies, and drift distances. The results can be used to design electron guns producing subpicosecond pulses for streak cameras as well as for time resolved electron diffraction.
Model for doping-induced contrast in photoelectron emission microscopy91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423399View Description Hide Description
We present a model that describes doping-induced contrast in photoelectron emission microscopy by including the effect of surface state distributions and doping-inducedband gap reduction. To quantify the contrast, the photoyield from the valence band for near-threshold photoemission is calculated as a function of p-type doping concentration in Si(001). Various surface state distributions appropriate for a native-oxide covered Si device are investigated in order to determine the effect on doping-induced contrast. The lower limit on the number of surface states necessary for doping-induced contrast to occur is approximately An interesting result is that neither the position nor the energy distribution of the surface donor states affects the contrast, which corresponds to approximately a factor of 2 change in intensity for each decade change in doping density. However, the overall intensity increases with any one of: increased surface state density, narrowing of surface state distribution, or increased energy of surface states with respect to the valence band. The band bending profile generated by the model predicts that doping-induced contrast will be affected by varying the incident photon energy. Experimentally, we verify this prediction by imaging with photon energies between 4.5 and 5.2 eV.
Shock Hugoniot compression curve for water up to 1 GPa by using a compressed gas gun91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1421630View Description Hide Description
A shock Hugoniot compression curve for water has been measured up to less than 1 GPa. A plane and steady shock wave is produced in water by the flat plate impact of a projectile accelerated by a compressed gas gun. A new experimental procedure was proposed to detect the shock wave front sensitively, which makes it possible to measure shock Hugoniot in higher precision than the previous method. The present method is based on the very large pressure dependence of the refractive index of water upon compression. By using this method, the shock compression curve was determined within the precision of 2% to 3% of the estimated shock pressure. The precision is better than that of the previous data. It was confirmed that within the pressure range covered in this experiment, the shock-particle velocity Hugoniot can be described by a linear relation with a large slope. Shock Hugoniot states on the pressure–temperature plane were calculated by using the obtained Hugoniot data combined with the values of thermodynamical variables. Thermodynamic analysis of the shock compression process was developed to estimate the contributions of irreversible heating by shock compression.
Tip growth model of carbon tubules grown on the glass substrate by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423767View Description Hide Description
Morphology of Ni tips and microstructures of carbon tubules were investigated and a growth model for carbon tubules was proposed. Triangular shaped Ni tips and piled-cone structure of carbon tubules were observed at the growth temperature of 500 °C. At the high growth temperature of 620 °C, smoothened edge shaped Ni tips were found and graphite layers became parallel to the growth direction as they were close to the outer wall of carbon tubules. Formation of Ni nuclei for carbon tubule growth was explained by pre-etching and precipitation of carbon atoms diffused from the surface of the Ni layer. A preferential growth of carbon tubules was observed and explained with the Ni orientation and size effect. A modified tip growth model based on surface diffusion was proposed for the growth mechanism of carbon tubules.
Electron acceleration based on self-trapping by plasma wake fields91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423392View Description Hide Description
A method for self-injection of background plasma electrons in a plasma wake field is introduced. In this scheme, a plasma wake wave, which can be generated by an intense laser pulse or an electron beam pulse propagating in a plasma, is passed through a sharply downward plasma density transition. When the plasma wake wave passes the density transition, some background plasma electrons are trapped by the ultrastrong plasma wake field that is several orders of magnitude stronger than the accelerating electric field in conventional rf-based accelerators. In this paper, the basic mechanism of the trapping is introduced and two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation results including trapped-beam quality studies are presented. In addition, the experimental program to investigate the self-injection-based acceleration at the Center for Advanced Accelerators of KERI is introduced.
Effect of oxygen pressure on the structure and thermal stability of ultrathin films on Si(001)91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1423763View Description Hide Description
surfaces and interfaces were investigated using scanning reflection electron microscopy, reflection high-energy electron diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Auger electron spectroscopy. A uniform, stoichiometric and ultrathin film of about 0.6 nm was grown on an atomically flat surface, and the resulting interface was atomically abrupt. An intentional reoxidation of the system under low oxygen pressure and showed that the ultrathin filmstoichiometry and the interface abruptness were maintained with progress in reoxidation time. Furthermore, the film and the interface showed no degradation under low-pressure reoxidation at various temperatures (400–750 °C). A high-pressure reoxidation of the system at resulted in the formation of an interfacial layer which grew in a layer-by-layer mode with atomic-scale uniformity and had an atomically abrupt interface with Si(001) substrate up to 700 °C. Additionally, a very weak temperature dependence of the growth of interfacial was observed. A high-pressure reoxidation at 750 °C led to the formation of crystalline ultrathin film and also caused degradation of the film by formation of in the near-surface region, where a slight decrease in the film thickness was observed. This was attributed to the formation of interstitial Si in the interfacial layer and the subsequent mobility of Si and Al under this growth condition. Under low-pressure reoxidation, the Si and Al were immobile because of the absence of an interfacial layer at the interface. These results indicate that the oxygen pressure of the ambience plays an important role in the oxidation of the interface, and the mobility, transport, and chemical reactions at various oxidation temperatures (400–750 °C).
High quality ZnO thin films grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1415545View Description Hide Description
High quality ZnOthin films have been grown on a Si(100) substrate by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition using a zinc organic source and carbon dioxide gas mixtures at the low temperature of 180 °C. The dependence of ZnOthin film quality on the gas flow rate ratio of to (GFRRZC) is studied by using x-ray diffraction(XRD), optical absorption (OA) spectra, and cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra. High quality ZnOthin films with a c-axis-oriented wurtzite structure are obtained when the GFRRZC is 0.33. XRD shows that the full width at half maximum of (0002) ZnO located at 34.42° is about 0.2°. At room temperature, a pronounced free exciton absorption peak around 365 nm is clearly observed. Also, a strong free exciton emission without deep level defect emission is observed around 385 nm, and its temperature dependence is studied from the photoluminescence spectra. These observations indicate the formation of a high quality ZnO film. Additionally, nitridation of the Si surface caused by releasing plasma into the deposition chamber is an effective way to improve film quality.
Comparison between dynamic plowing lithography and nanoindentation methods91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1421632View Description Hide Description
Two different methods of nanolithography, namely dynamic plowing lithography (DPL) and indentation by means of force-displacement curves (FDI), have been compared by performing them on two different polymers, poly (methylmethacrylate) and polystyrene. No fundamental differences can be found out in the efficiency of the two methods, i.e., in the depth of the lithographed structure as a function of the scanning parameters. The main drawback of FDI is that it is much more time consuming than DPL. On the other hand, when the sample is lithographed with DPL, the border walls that surround the lithographed structure are very much bigger than the border walls created through FDI. The physicochemical properties of the border walls created through DPL have been investigated. Several experimental data reveal that such border walls are very much softer and looser than unmodified polymers and suggest that during DPL the fast oscillating tip is able to break polymer chains. This does not happen with FDI, where border walls are simply made up of the material carved out by the tip. A method to eliminate these undesirable border walls is suggested.

India May Get Below-Normal Rainfall Amid Increasing El Nino Odds
The monsoon in India, which provides most of the annual rainfall, will be below normal this year amid a 60 percent chance for the emergence of an El Nino that previously caused droughts, the country's forecaster said.
Rain will probably be 95 percent of a 50-year average of 89 centimeters (35 inches) in the June-September period, the India Meteorological Department said in a statement on its website. Actual rainfall may be 5 percent more or less than the prediction, it said.
The season is crucial for crops from sugar to rice and cotton as more than 50 percent of the nation's farmland is rain-fed, making monsoons the main source of irrigation for India's 235 million farmers. Less-than-normal precipitation can curb farm output, lower rural incomes and hamper a rebound in the country's economic growth from near the lowest in a decade, while spurring inflation.
"If it is below-normal rainfall, the monsoon-sown crops output may drop and agriculture GDP may close down to zero if not negative," said Sonal Varma, an economist at Nomura Holdings Inc. in Mumbai. "There could be some threat to food inflation."
India's consumer-price index accelerated 8.31 percent in March from a year earlier, quickening for the first time in four months, says the Central Statistics Office. The economy grew 4.9 percent in the year ended March 31, after a decade-low expansion of 4.5 percent, the Statistics Ministry estimates.
Pacific Warming
"The sub surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific have warmed to the levels generally observed prior to an El Nino event," the department said. "Latest forecast from a majority of the models also indicate warming trend in the sea surface temperatures over the equatorial Pacific reaching to El Nino level during the southwest monsoon season with a probability of around 60 percent."
Showers between 96 percent and 104 percent of the average are considered normal by the department. The probability of normal monsoon is 35 percent, while that for a below normal monsoon is 33 percent, it said.
Farmlands in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, the Maldives, Myanmar and Afghanistan will most probably get below-normal to normal rainfall amid consensus among experts about the possibility of the El Nino during the June-September monsoon season, the South Asian Climate Outlook Forum said in a statement in Pune, India, yesterday.
"There is strong consensus among the experts about the possibility of evolution of an El Nino event during the summer monsoon season," the forum said. "However, it is recognized that there is uncertainty in the intensity of the El Nino. There is also consensus about the potential for adverse impacts of El Nino on the monsoon rainfall over the region."
El Nino Odds
Signs have been detected that El Nino is imminent, presaging changes to global weather patterns in the months ahead, the World Meteorological Organization said last week. The chances that an El Nino will develop are growing, the U.S. Climate Prediction Center said this month, boosting the odds to 65 percent from 52 percent. The weather pattern may develop by July, according to Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.
El Ninos occur irregularly every two to seven years and are associated with warmer than average years. They tend to lead to abnormally dry conditions over parts of Australia, the Philippines and Indonesia. Their counterpart, La Ninas, are associated with cooler years.
Forecasts at this time of year aren't always accurate, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said in an April 13 report. Even if El Nino emerges as predicted, the impact can vary, it said.
The weather event has not always resulted in weak monsoons in India and mitigating factors this year may include comfortable reservoir water levels and excess food grain stockpiles, Rohini Malkani and Anurag Jha, Mumbai-based analysts at Citigroup Inc., said in a report last month.
Record Crops
Production of food grains from rice to wheat, lentils and corn in India is seen at a record 263.2 million metric tons in the year ending June after more than normal monsoon and cooler winter boosted yields, according to the Agriculture Ministry.
Disruptions associated with El Ninos globally have been most important for palm oil, cocoa, coffee and sugar, Goldman Sachs said in its report.
"Oilseeds, lentils, sugarcane and cotton are the major crops that could be in trouble in India," said Prerana Desai, research head at Kotak Commodity Services Ltd. in Mumbai. "Last year, soybeans were damaged due to late rains. Damage to the crop for two consecutive years will be a matter of worry."
India received normal or more-than-normal rains during only three El Nino years out of the past 10 occurrences, while the remaining were drought years, according to data from the meteorological department. Monsoon rainfall was the least in almost four decades in 2009, when El Nino occurred last, data show. Rice and oilseed harvests fell 10 percent, Agriculture Ministry data show.
"While pre-monsoonal showers in May look favorable, the main monsoon season has a drier-than-normal bias this season," Commodity Weather Group LLC said in a report dated April 21. "The main areas of concern are sugarcane and soybean areas. Rains are closer to normal in much of the peanut and rice areas but the concern is that if El Nino comes on stronger and faster, more areas are in danger of below normal rains this season."

Only Book Required!If you're looking to Pass the Foundation ISTQB test, well look no further! Don't study online, Just study from this book, and you will easily pass! :) I had very less time to study, because It was tough to be working in the office, helping out at home, being with your loved ones. In the end I could only study chapters 1 to 4. 5 and 6 were left out. 5 is important. Anyways I still managed to get 33/40 with ease. Also my paper finished 30 mins before. Tips: Study chapters 1,2,4 & 5 thoroughly!

Good book for those who are looking for ISTQB FLNeat explanation of all the concepts but this book alone won't help you to get certification as ISTQB is not a cake walk, this book can be used to get required initial confidence.

I used half and half cream instead of whip cream in order to cut down on fat...still came out great.
This was awesome!! I did go with the half broccoli/half cauliflower combo, and I also used cheddar cheese instead of swiss 'cause I really don't like swiss, and it turned out wonderful. The whole family enjoyed it. I'm sure I will be making this many times again for family get-togethers. I think it would also be great to add leftover cooked chicken or turkey to make a main-dish. Superb! Thanks! ~Manda
We love this recipe, I do not use the ham I add sauteed onions and a little sour cream and I top it off a little parmesan before adding it to the oven. Yummy!! Thank you!
I will never just steam cauliflower again! This is a fabulous recipe, we all loved it!
This was fabulous! Raises the lowly cauliflower to gourmet level! I wouldn't hesitate to serve it to company.
We cut the cayenne a little, but otherwise followed the directions precisely. An excellent cauliflower dish.
My DH rated this 5 stars. I used black forest ham from the deli, 4 cloves of garlic, red pepper flakes because I didn't have any cayenne, soy flour because I'm low carbing that might explain why it didn't thicken up enough. Still tasted great! Thanks for the new recipe.
This is excellent. I subsituted cheddar for the Swiss and milk for the cream.
Yummy Yooper! I didn't use any ham, but I did saute some chopped onion with the garlic and cauliflower. Very tasty and easy to make as well.
I've been looking for a recipe like this! I have a head of cauliflower in the fridge but am tired of plain veggies. Can't wiat to try this one!

There was dancing in the streets of Florence today.
Aug 16, 2013
FLORENCE, Italy - The University of Nevada men's basketball team and those traveling with the group slept in a little longer on Friday morning before getting on the bus for a five hour drive to Florence, Italy. Most slept, listened to music or read a book to pass the time.
The group made one pit stop along the way for a bathroom break and chance to get a few snacks. These are always interesting to see what is purchased. One individual had bacon flavored crackers and one player was seen eating what looked like a turkey leg. Some stayed within their comfort zone eating M&M's and coke.
Upon arriving at the team hotel it was free time the rest of the day to explore the area and local sites near the hotel. The players quickly scrambled to their rooms for a nap and then off to eat something. Other than gelato, pizza seems to be the food of choice, the players don't seem too adventurous to try a food total away from the norm.
Some of the sites within walking distance of the hotel were grand church that was stumbled on by many in the party. There was dancing in the streets and some of the players decided to join but unfortunately no photos were taken to verify the event.
An early night for a change, for most, before a long day of sightseeing on Saturday. When traveling in a foreign country its always interesting to see what the next day will bring.

|[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-2242) Get distinct count of names for a facet field
|Mon, 13 Jun 2011 05:50:52 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2242?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13048474#comment-13048474 ] Lance Norskog commented on SOLR-2242: ------------------------------------- If I was a committer which I'm not, I would demand: * params would be as simple as possible. 'namedistinct' would be a symbol like 'facet.method=enum'. Facets have exploded in complexity, and I can't follow how everything interlocks. The API may have to change later. * no white-space glitches * consistencyConsistencyConsistency. * there has to to be a way to use less memory when we're only pulling a count. * unit tests. It's somewhat unfair to expect you to write all the unit tests required to make sure this does not break anything else, give that so much of facet features do not have tests. Anyway, food calls. Hope this helps. > Get distinct count of names for a facet field > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-2242 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2242 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Response Writers > Affects Versions: 4.0 > Reporter: Bill Bell > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0 > > Attachments: SOLR-2242.patch, SOLR-2242.shard.patch, SOLR-2242.solr3.1.patch, SOLR.2242.solr3.1.patch, SOLR.2242.v2.patch > > > When returning facet.field=<name of field> you will get a list of matches for distinct values.
