This is the easiest, quickest, and really great tasting hummus recipe that I've come across. It's a favorite in our home! Thanks for sharing!
I forgot to give the name of the gluten/wheat dressing from Kroger....It is called "Organic Goddess Dressing"
This is GREAT. I switched to the goddess dressing from Trader Joe's, it's cheaper and tastes the same. Thanks again
If you like olives try this variation. I added 12 small green olives stuffed with pimiento, omitted the cumin and used a teaspoon of roasted garlic (instead of raw), plus some extra lemon juice. Love that olive taste!
I love this! So do all my friends. I have passed it on to six of them!
This recipe was easy and delicious! I followed the recipe to the tee and enjoyed the hummus as a lo cal snack with mini organic carrots. Yummy! Thank You!
This is a really good hummus recipe although to be fair I didn't stick that stringently to the recipe. I doubled the garlic, and didn't have the dressing so substituted just olive oil using just under half the amount of dressing called for and enough of the garbanzo bean water to make it creamy. What I did make came out very good though, thank you.
Excellent alternative to high fat hummus!

I already send feedback to Polldaddy regarding Polldaddy plugin for WordPress but after several weeks I still didn't get reply nor plugin was updated, so since authors are following this forum they maybe get notice.
Thing is that there are some strings that aren't wrapped in gettext functions, so they can't be translated. So here are they.
On page for new custom style, most of the options are not i18ned. They are in file polldaddy.php on lines 2143 to 2975. Note that there are some values from dropdown list that don't need to be i18ned, like sizes, font names etc. but I think that you can figure that out.
On page for poll editing, section design, everything below picture of a style (1 of 20, wide, width etc), which is pulled from JavaScript, is not i18ned. Also string "You currently have no custom styles created."
Poll form (I believe this is also from JavaScript since I don't see it in file except example which is also not gettexted): "Other", "Vote", "View Results", "Share This", "View Comments", "Return To Poll", "Total Votes", thank you message, etc.
On a page for editing ratings, labels are not i18ned (I belive that they are pulled from polldaddy.com). This is on lines 3320 to 3361. Note that first td is i18ned but second one uses value like $settings->text_votes and this is what is not i18ned.
One more thing I'd like to suggest are better plural forms, like described on http://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers#Plurals
After you fix this, please update this plugin used on wp.com since over there I noticed this issues at first.
Thanks in advance

Belsay Hall often has interesting exhibitions. The grounds are lovely and the house is worth a look.
Kids loved the walk through the woods to the castle and exploring all the nooks and crannies. Plenty to do but not a lot of shelter on a wet day so bring your waterproofs!
I love Belsay Hall and Gardens. Great value for money as you get to see the Hall, The Quarry Garden, The Castle and the Lake!Great day out for couples or families.There was a great exhibition a while ago. Inside the hall were sculptures that were so realistic. The hall is empty and it's such a shame. The space should be used throughout the year for local or international artists to display their work.
We visited Belsay for the afternoon during our short stay just outside of Morpeth and I am so glad we did. The architecture was astounding but nothing could beat the beauty of the gardens even on a damp autumnal day. Sadly the quarry walk was closed due to flooding but the beauty of the quarry gardens would be hard to beat. The cafe was well appointed and good value for money with something for everyone. Lovely cheery staff. Our youngest child had a ball exploring the paths with his sister.
visits to here in the height of summer couldn't be nicer beautiful flowered gardens and a very interesting historic hall. north-east history in bloom

Jacinda: (in a 2006 interview) I've never watched the box office of things until recently when I realized how much money it makes also has a massive bearing on the actors because no matter how great your movie is if it doesn't make a lot of money it doesn't help you in the long run. But I try not to get into all that stuff because it's really zero I can do about it.

Here's the thing. This movie is a recreation of the 2008 financial crisis. Every character in the movie represents a different group (like Richard Jenkins is obviously the American government). When you view the movie with this frame, as a parable, I think it takes on new dimensions. You're suddenly comparing characters and groups of characters (like the poker players) to their real-life equivalents (the poker players represent the American 1%). But you're also looking at the interaction between characters and then what that's saying about the interaction between the real-life equivalents. What do I mean by that? The final speech. I won't give it away, but a lot of reviewers and people who have seen the movie say the final speech is cheesy. Sure. Except when you view it through the frame of "Brad Pitt's character has a real-life equivalent", the final speech takes on a different dynamic. It isn't just some speech in a fictional narrative of some movie. It has a real-world influence, it represents something that's not fiction. Who does Brad Pitt's character represent? It's not a "who" rather than a "what". (Hint: it's the American Spirit). The question isn't "is the speech cheesy or not, is it bad or not, is it cool or not?" The question is: do you agree that the speech is representative of the 21st Century American Spirit? If not, why? If so, why? If you agree, does the speech make you feel a rush of pride or discomfort?Read more ›
The plot centers around a heist of a poker game that sends the local mafia in New Orleans in to an economic tailspin. This all happens during the run up to the 2008 presidential election of Barack Obama. Parallels are drawn between the gangsters in the movie and the people on Wall Street and in Washington who perpetrated the housing bubble that lead to the economic crash. Criminal activity freezes up and money quits moving, similar to the credit shortage attributed to the banking crash. Just about every scene has talk radio or CSPAN on in the background.
A few individual scenes stand out. The heist sequence is near perfect. Gandolfini's scenes, though somewhat superfluous to the overall narrative, are acted with authority. Gandolfini really is a fine actor, and he pulls of his scenes with gusto. The drive out for the final hit is quite well done and suspenseful.
The problem is the individual scenes don't really make for a satisfying whole. I found the narrative rather slow and too deliberately paced, and this is coming from a guy who normally enjoys when a film takes it's time.Read more ›
Several comments: when all is said and done, the substantive plot is surprisingly meager, and in that sense there is no suspense whatsoever in how things will turn out. Instead the movie focuses on conversations between the various characters in the movie, which works great. If you've seen the trailer for this movie, you are aware already that there are several violent scenes in the movie, but for the most part they are brought in a very stylish manner (at one point one of the main characters is gunned down and the whole scene, shown in slow motion and set to the 1960s Ketty Lester hit "Love Letters", feels like an orchestrated ballet scene. That said, there is another scene in which Markie is beaten up that is over-the-top violent, so viewer beware. Despite the 1980s feeling to many scenes in the movies (check out many of the cars used by the main characters), the movie is set very specifically in the Fall of 2008, as we see a number of clips featuring Bush and Obama, commenting on the then just exploding financial crisis, which is in marked contrast (or perhaps not?) to the violence occurring in the movie.
But most of all this movie is about incredible acting performances.Read more ›

Did you know the Army has established a "one stop" place to go whenever Soldiers or their family members need assistance with a problem'
The Army OneSource portal, located at www.myarmyonesource.com, compiles important, credible and up-to-date information in a single location for Soldiers and family members to access at any time of day, regardless of component or physical location.
Army OneSource is a groundbreaking expansion to the family services we currently have on military installations both within the United States and overseas. It leverages technology and enables the Army to provide assistance to families and service members via the Internet.
The services include everything from common, everyday issues that a family might face to life's most complex situations. Army OneSource is a remarkable way to move forward in the 21st century by providing help to our Soldier and their families.
The military family member or service member can now access the Internet and start to find answers. We know our military installations provide many family services on post, but about 70 percent of military families live off the installation.
The Army OneSource offers many programs such as, but not limited to, mobilization and deployment questions and answers. There is a section for employment readiness, because the Army believes that every Army spouse should have a choice and be afforded the opportunity to develop a career and/or become employed.
The financial readiness link is there because the Army is here to help provide you with information on matters dealing with money. From financial calculators to tax preparation, these tools can help you on your way to financial success .
We're right in the middle of PCS season and the relocation readiness link helps if you are preparing to relocate or in the middle of moving to a new location. This link provides useful information to help answer the many questions you may have about relocating to make your transition as smooth as possible.
If you have any questions about Military OneSource, check the website at www.militaryonesource.com or call 800-342-9647. MOS is a complement to the other branch Army OneSource sites. This site enables direct calls to a "real person" to talk about issues and get some questions resolved. These services are offered to our National Guard and reservists and families as well.
The Army OneSource and Military OneSource are great tools for Soldiers and families to use. The "one stop shops" offer an abundance of valuable information while our goal is to reach as many Soldiers and families as we can and to provide the best services to our military community.

Brash On The Campaign Trail, Modi Steps Into Parliament Humble
Narendra Modi made his maiden visit to the halls of India's parliament Tuesday, shortly after being unanimously voted his party's leader. Then, he was off to the presidential palace to receive the invitation to form a government.
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish.
And I'm Robert Siegel.
Narendra Modi will be sworn in Monday as India's next prime minister. Today, the country's president invited him to form a new government. And Modi thanked his Hindu nationalist party for unanimously naming him as their parliamentary leader.
NPR's Julie McCarthy reports his speech was filled with emotion and some surprise.
JULIE MCCARTHY, BYLINE: Often brash and boasting on the campaign trail, Modi was all humility today as he stood in the history-laden Central Hall of Parliament and sized up the significance of the moment
PRIME MINISTER NARENDRA MODI: (Foreign language spoken)
MCCARTHY: A person from a poor family is standing before you, he told the assembled BJP Party listening in rapt attention. The power of democracy, he said, has given power to the most ordinary person.
Modi defeated the long-serving Congress Party of the Nehru/Gandhi dynasty. For many Indians, the family has become out of touch, cocooned in the perks of power. Modi himself was accused of being in the clutches of India's corporate Titans, who had flourished in his home state of Gujarat where he was chief minister. Allegations rang about crony capitalism, but Modi suggested today that his only cronies would be the poorest of the poor.
MODI: (Foreign language spoken)
MCCARTHY: After all, who is the government for, he asked? There should be a government that thinks about the poor, hears the poor, lives for the poor. Members thumped their desks in approval as Modi went on: Villages, farmers, the lowest castes, the marginalized, mothers and women looking for respect, this is our priority, he said.
MCCARTHY: Modi had been taken to task for running a Modi-centric campaign. But today, a milder Modi emerged expressing gratitude to those who enabled his climb to the pinnacle of Indian politics. At one point, he stopped, briefly choking back tears. The Hindu nationalist dogged by charges that he was divisive, declared he would work not for himself but the entire nation.

New energy partitioning scheme based on the self-consistent charge and configuration method for subsystems: Application to water dimer system112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480729View Description Hide Description
The charge-transfer energy in water dimer is analyzed. The analysis is based on self-consistent charge and configuration method for subsystems (SCCCMS). The SCCCMS, as such, is not restricted to any computational schemes and can be applied at Hartree–Fock (HF), post-HF, and density functional levels of theory. In our approach, the interaction energy is decomposed into deformation (DEF), electrostatic (ES), polarization (P), charge transfer (CT), and exchange (EX) [exchange–correlation (XC)] contributions. The CT energy is derived from the energy surface spanned in the populational space. The intermediate results obtained during construction of this energy surface, such as chemical potentials,hardness and softness parameters, are of particular interest in the theory of chemical reactivity and, thus, these values are discussed as well. The influence of basis set and computational method is analyzed. The numerical values of the energy components obtained at the HF level of theory are compared with those of Kitaura–Morokuma (KM) and reduced variational space (RVS) analyses. It is shown that SCCCMS correctly describes the polarization process. The CT contribution is less dependent on the basis set than KM or RVS scheme and is free from the basis set superposition error (BSSE). It is demonstrated that the CT energy is of little importance for the water dimer. In addition, the amount of CT calculated in our scheme is almost identical to that obtained from the supermolecule calculations.
Nonorthogonal localized molecular orbitals in electronic structure theory112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480730View Description Hide Description
The concept of nonorthogonal localized molecular orbital (NOLMO) is investigated in this paper. Given a set of the commonly used canonical molecular orbitals, a direct minimization algorithm is proposed to obtain both the orthogonal localized molecular orbitals (OLMO) and NOLMO by using the Boys criterion and conjugate gradient minimization. To avoid the multiple-minimum problem, the absolute energy minimization principle of Yang is employed to obtain initial guesses. Contrary to the early conclusion drawn by Lipscomb and co-workers who claimed that OLMOs and the corresponding NOLMOs are more or less the same, we found that NOLMOs are about 10%–30% more localized than OLMOs. More importantly, the so-called "delocalization tail" that plagues OLMOs is not present in NOLMOs, showing that NOLMOs are more compact and less oscillatory and capable of providing greater transferability in describing the electronic structure of molecules. We also found that main lobes of NOLMOs are slightly larger in size than those of OLMOs because of the normalization requirement. These features establish NOLMOs to be valuable as building blocks in electronic structure theory and for the understanding of chemical bonding. They show the promise for the utilization of NOLMOs—the most localized possible—in the linear scaling approaches of the electronic structure theory for molecules and solids.
Vibrational corrections to properties at arbitrary reference geometry112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480731View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate how vibrational contributions to any (static) electric property may be computed with respect to an arbitrary reference geometry which, at a given level of electronic structure theory, need not correspond to the associated minimum energy geometry. Within the harmonic approximation, it is shown that the formulas for the vibrational contributions can be extended to include a second-order corrective term, which is a function of the energy gradient and the (nuclear) first derivatives of the property in question. Taking the BH molecule as a test case, we illustrate that the order of magnitude of the correction increases with order of property (i.e., and that this value is equivalent to the difference in (pure) electronic contributions evaluated with respect to the optimum and nonoptimum geometries. Furthermore, we show that for a diatomic, vibrational [zero-point vibrational average (ZPVA) and pure] contributions computed at a nonoptimum geometry may be readily corrected to give the optimum geometry values. Thus we provide a route for obtaining total properties associated with a minimum energy geometry, using information calculated at a nonoptimum geometry.
The open shell single reference size-consistent self-consistent singles and doubles configuration interaction method: Application to ionization potentials112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480821View Description Hide Description
In previous works, the size-consistent self-consistent matrix dressing method has been applied to single reference as well as to complete active space singles and doubles configuration interaction. The wave function of the dressed state was assumed to be dominated by a closed shell determinant. Here, the method has been extended to systems where the dressed state is a single-configurational doublet. The method allows for the accurate calculation of energies and wave functions of other electronic states of the same system, having or not the same symmetry, as well as in the case of closed shell systems. This statement has been thoroughly assessed by the calculation of vertical ionization energies corresponding to a few low lying states of that are compared to full CI results obtained with the cc-pVDZ basis set. The method has been applied, using larger basis sets, to the calculation of vertical ionization potentials (VIP) of HF, and The results are compared to experimental VIP values. The effects of selecting different CAS spaces and using pseudonatural adapted MO's obtained from the CASSCF matrix densities are shown and discussed. Mean absolute error (MAE) for the calculated states is about 0.07 eV. The difficulties to improve this precision limit are shown. However, the mean signed absolute errors, that measure accuracy, can be made smaller. Small MAE can be obtained using simultaneously VTZ basis sets and intermediate levels of calculation. The possibility of this effect to be assigned to a fortuitous cancellation of errors is pointed out.
New generalized gradient approximation functionals112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480732View Description Hide Description
New generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functionals are reported, using the expansion form of A. D. Becke, J. Chem. Phys. 107, 8554 (1997), with 15 linear parameters. Our original such GGA functional, called HCTH, was determined through a least squares refinement to data of 93 systems. Here, the data are extended to 120 systems and 147 systems, introducing electron and proton affinities, and weakly bound dimers to give the new functionals HCTH/120 and HCTH/147. HCTH/120 has already been shown to give high quality predictions for weakly bound systems. The functionals are applied in a comparative study of the addition reaction of water to formaldehyde and sulfur trioxide, respectively. Furthermore, the performance of the HCTH/120 functional in Car–Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations of liquid water is encouraging.
Molecular electronic structure using auxiliary field Monte Carlo, plane-waves, and pseudopotentials112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480733View Description Hide Description
Shifted contour auxiliary field Monte Carlo is implemented for molecular electronic structure using a plane-waves basis and norm conserving pseudopotentials. The merits of the method are studied by computing atomization energies of and By comparing with high correlation methods, DFT-based norm conserving pseudopotentials are evaluated for performance in fully correlated molecular computations. Pseudopotentials based on generalized gradient approximation lead to consistently better atomization energies than those based on the local density approximation, and we find there is room for designing pseudopotentials better suited for full valence correlation.
Generalized Gaussian moment thermostatting: A new continuous dynamical approach to the canonical ensemble112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480769View Description Hide Description
A new method for generating the canonical ensemble via continuous dynamics is presented. The new method is based on controlling the fluctuations of an arbitrary number of moments of the multidimensional Gaussian momentum distribution function. The equations of motion are non-Hamiltonian, and hence have a nonvanishing phase space compressibility. By applying the statistical mechanical theory of non-Hamiltonian systems recently introduced by the authors [M. E. Tuckerman, C. J. Mundy, and G. J. Martyna, Europhys. Lett. 45, 149 (1999)], the equations are shown to produce the correct canonical phase space distribution function. Reversible integrators for the new equations of motion are derived based on a Trotter-type factorization of the classical Liouville propagator. The new method is applied to a variety of simple one-dimensional example problems and is shown to generate ergodic trajectories and correct canonical distribution functions of both position and momentum. The new method is further shown to lead to rapid convergence in molecular dynamics based calculations of path integrals. The performance of the new method in these examples is compared to that of another canonical dynamics method, the Nosé–Hoover chain method [G. J. Martyna, M. L. Klein, and M. E. Tuckerman, J. Chem. Phys. 97, 2635 (1992)]. The comparison demonstrates the improvements afforded by the new method as a molecular dynamics tool. Finally, when employed in molecular dynamics simulations of biological macromolecules, the new method is shown to provide better energy equipartitioning and temperature control and to lead to improved spatial sampling over the Nosé–Hoover chain method in a realistic application.

Double-resonance spectroscopy of the high Rydberg states of HCO. IV. Vibrational autoionization dynamics as a function of bending amplitude112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480734View Description Hide Description
Double-resonant ionization-detected absorption experiments extend an investigation of the autoionizationdynamics of HCO to include the second overtone of the bend. In these experiments, first-photon transitions to the Rydberg state select single rovibrational levels for second-photon scans of vibrationally autoionizing high Rydberg series that converge to specific rovibrational limits of Line shapes reflect coupling widths that join discrete states built on vibrationally excited cores with underlying, vibrationally relaxed continua. Scans of series converging to with one and two quanta of bend show narrow linewidths, reflecting relatively long autoionization lifetimes. However, for cores excited to the second harmonic of the bend, certain series abruptly broaden, indicating ultrafast decay. The implications of these results are discussed in terms of a qualitative extension of multichannel quantum defect theory to triatomic molecules.
Angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy of with synchrotron radiation112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480735View Description Hide Description
Angular distribution of photoelectrons for the photoionization processes has been studied at the photonenergy of 21.22 eV and in the photonenergy range 13.8–15.2 eV where the cross-sections for these processes show strong enhancement due to the presence of resonant transitions to a Rydberg state It has been found that the plot of the asymmetry parameter, β, against photonenergy shows structure at energies corresponding to excitations. The ionizations have also been investigated in the photonenergy range 18.0–19.2 eV, where the presence of unassigned resonances was observed in earlier photoelectron spectroscopic work. In this energy range the plot of asymmetry parameter against photonenergy also shows resonant structure. Suggestions for the excited states associated with these resonances have been made on the basis of constant-ionic-state spectra recorded at different angles.
Threshold collision-induced dissociation of anionic copper clusters and copper cluster monocarbonyls112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480736View Description Hide Description
The threshold collision-induced dissociation method is applied to study the fragmentation patterns and to measure the dissociation energies of small anionic copper clusters and their monocarbonyls For the bare clusters, the main reaction channels are loss of an atom and loss of a dimer. For the copper cluster monocarbonyls, the main channel is loss of CO. Dissociation energies for the loss of an atom from bare copper cluster anions, show even–odd alternation. The species with the highest dissociation energy, and the highest carbonyl desorption energy, have eight valence electrons, consistent with closed shells in the jellium model. Bond energies are compared with theoretical models.
Molecular beam study of the chemiluminescent reaction of manganese and ozone112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480737View Description Hide Description
The electronically chemiluminescent reaction was investigated using a beam-gas configuration. Light from the MnO transition was collected by a charge coupled device(CCD) array detector with resolutions of 0.5 and 0.1 nm. The spectrum at lower resolution (500–655 nm) encompassed the to +2 sequences, while that at higher resolution (555.5–583.5 nm) encompassed only the sequence. These two spectra were separately fitted with a nonlinear least-squares program to obtain vibrational and rotational distributions of the nascent The limited vibrational-state coverage of the higher-resolution spectrum made it unrealiable for determining the vibrational state distribution, and it was useful only for characterizing the rotational distribution when The best-fit vibrational excitation is somewhat less than for the Prior model, but the rotational excitation is considerably greater. A consideration of the electronic structure of reactants and products indicates that principal changes occurring in the chemiluminescent reaction are σ–electron donation from the hybridized Mn orbital to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and π–electron backdonation from the O–O orbital to the Mn orbital. Correlation of the orbitals involved indicates that direct access is allowed to the MnO state. This mechanism favors Mn approach perpendicular to the plane and suggests that the product's rotational excitation may originate in repulsion arising from removal of electron density from the slightly bonding orbital of However, some rotational excitation could also be attributed to conservation of angular momentum arising from a sizable reactive impact parameter. The lack of significant vibrational excitation is a consequence of the short-range nature of the partial charge transfer in this reaction channel.
The excited electronic states and the ionization potential of the complex112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480738View Description Hide Description
The complex was studied in a molecular beam by resonant one-color two-photon and two-color two-photonphotoionization techniques with a resolution of 0.3 Six progressions of bands were observed in the 18 100–26 200 (381–552 nm) region. One progression was assigned to the stretch in the state correlating with the term of Al. The origin of the system was found at The second and third progressions were assigned to the stretch and the bend in the state correlating with the term of Al. The origin of the system was found at Assignments of the other three progressions with origins and harmonic wave numbers of and and ; and and remain uncertain. The spin-orbit splitting of the ground state was determined to be Several Rydberg series converging to the 2, and 3 levels of the ground state of the ion were observed. The ionization potential of the complex was measured to be The fundamental in the ground state of the ion was found to be To aid the interpretation of our spectra, ab initio optimized structures and vibrational wave numbers for the ground states of various isotopomers of and were calculated. Also, potential curves for several low-lying excited states were calculated. In addition, the ionization potential of the isotopomer was measured by the one-photon photoionization efficiency technique. The value of is an improvement on that previously reported by Di Palma et al. [Chem. Phys. Lett. 284, 184 (1998)], which was 180 smaller.
Cluster isolated chemical reaction (CICR) spectroscopy: Ba atoms and complexes on large neon clusters112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480820View Description Hide Description
The cluster isolated chemical reaction (CICR) technique was applied to neon clusters on which barium atoms and methane molecules were deposited. Clusters carrying barium only were studied first. Qualitatively, the present results on neon clusters are in line with our previous results on argon clusters. In particular, surface location of barium was observed. The central part of the present work concerns neon clusters carrying both one barium atom and one to ten methane molecules. Several types of spectroscopy were performed in the region of the resonance transition of barium (excitation spectrum of the total fluorescence,emission spectrum, action spectrum for forming and experiments where the number of methane molecules per cluster, which was strictly controlled, was varied systematically. The corresponding results were interpreted on the ground of a model, which transposes both chemical thermodynamics of equilibria and reaction kinetics to CICR experiments. Such an approach has a strong relationship, although it is more simple, with the thermodynamical approach to reactions in micellar solutions. The present thermodynamical model helped us to determine the origin of the action spectrum for forming in clusters carrying both one barium atom and an average of 2.5 methane molecules. This action spectrum was assigned to direct excitation of the and complexes. The present thermodynamical model was also applied to our former results on argon clusters. This allowed us to derive a consistent picture of the association reaction of barium with methane and of the quenching of electronic excitation of barium by methane in both environments.
Dissociation of diatomic molecules by elliptically polarized chirped pulses112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480770View Description Hide Description
The effects of the rotational degrees of freedom in the photodissociationdynamics of diatomic molecules by a chirped laser pulse is studied. In general, the inclusion of rotational degrees of freedom reduces the efficiency of the chirping excitations relative to that found for nonrotating molecules. However, using classical 2D and 3D rotating Morse oscillator models we demonstrate that field polarization can cause dramatic enhancements of the dissociation probabilities, with circularly polarized chirped pulses inducing dissociation in rotating molecules almost as efficiently as that previously seen for nonrotating Morse oscillators. We suggest reasons for such improvement in efficiency and discuss the validity of the bucket dynamics model for rotating Morse oscillators.
Detection of produced in the photodissociation of I. Identification of the and Rydberg states in 113–130 nm112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480739View Description Hide Description
The metastable atom produced in the photodissociation of in the wavelength region 113–130 nm was detected by measuring the 762 nm fluorescence of the transition The excited states of were classified as either the state that produces or the state that produces Our quantum yield measurements of found bands of both pure and overlapped and states. Five bands were found to produce including the longest, second, and third bands and two additional bands near 115.3 and 113.8 nm that were assigned as the states. Three bands were assigned to the state. We also found a state at 116.2 nm, which did not produce but produced weak visible fluorescence. The possibility of attributing the fluorescence to a transition was discussed.
Interaction of the water dimer with π-systems: A theoretical investigation of structures, energies, and vibrational frequencies112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480774View Description Hide Description
The interaction of the water dimer with both the olefinic and aromatic π systems (ethene, benzene, toluene, fluorobenzene, and p-difluorobenzene) has been investigated using both the supermolecular [second-order Møller–Plesset (MP2)] and perturbational (symmetry adapted perturbation theory) approaches. The geometry optimizations, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and the components of the binding energy were evaluated using fairly large basis sets and aug-cc-pVDZ). The minimum energy structures obtained at the and MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ levels of theory indicate that the water dimer exhibits a π-type of interaction with ethene, benzene, and toluene and a σ-type of interaction with both fluorobenzene and p-difluorobenzene. This is demonstrated from the vibrational frequencies which are in good agreement with the experimentally determined numbers. Our calculations indicate that the nature and strength of the interaction of the donor water molecule (water dimer) with the π system has a significant bearing on the total binding energy of the complex. Apart from the interaction of the water dimer with the π system, we also show how this interaction influences the hydrogen bond characteristics of the water dimer by evaluating the hydrogen bond strengths.

A suitable experimental method for the synthesis of molecules like O=Ge=O, which cannot simply be generated by heating of the well known solids, is provided by matrix isolation technique. In solid noble or other inert gases Ge atoms react with The formation of the -like species was monitored by IR spectroscopy some time ago. In order to determine the complete force field the Raman spectrum has now been recorded. Bonding in this species is discussed on the basis of experimental findings and ab initio calculations which have been performed in addition. These results reveal, that multiple bonding in the system GeO/ is completely different from that in the molecules CO and
State resolved reaction rates of the spin-forbidden predissociation of A quantum dynamics study of the rotational effect112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480741View Description Hide Description
The predissociation of into the and dissociative states for the total angular momentum is studied by quantum dynamics calculations. The effective Hamiltonian for describing the predissociation is derived from time-dependent wave packet propagation calculations on the triplet potential energy surfaces. The decay rates of individual rovibrational states in the singlet manifold are obtained by diagonalizing the effective Hamiltonian represented in terms of the singlet rovibrational wave functions. The Fermi golden rule is also applied to test its validity in estimating the decay rate distribution. For and 2, the rovibrational Hamiltonian is constructed by recoupling the coupled state wave functions obtained by a filter diagonalization. For higher values of J, a random coupling model deduced from the calculations for and 2 is introduced to estimate the decay rate distributions. In order to compare the calculated decay rate distributions with those by a random matrix/transition state theory (RM/TST), the transition states are defined as the eigenvectors of decay rate matrix whose eigenvalues are used for calculating the RM/TST distributions. It is found that the fluctuation of decay rate distribution decreases with increasing J though the calculated distribution shows significant deviation from the RM/TST prediction even for A simple model is employed to interpret the origin of the decrease of fluctuation in decay rates with J and the deviation from RM/TST. It is concluded that a sharp decay rate distribution comes from an increase of the absolute number of singlet rovibrational states accessible to the transition state due to the K-mixing, though such a K-mixing is limited. The deviation of calculated distribution from the RM/TST one is thus attributed to incomplete energy randomization in the singlet state
State-resolved dissociation dynamics of triplet acetaldehyde near the dissociation threshold to form +HCO112(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.480742View Description Hide Description
We studied the state-resolved dynamics of acetaldehyde to product channels with quantum-beat spectroscopy. Two bands near the threshold of dissociation to radical products +HCO in a supersonic jet, displaying most quantum-beat features, are recorded with resolution 0.025 Evaluated on the basis of a simple asymmetric rotor, the origins of these two bands and another denoted # are 31 275.045(1) and 31 523.263(1) effective rotational constants of excited state are 5.0408(3), 0.32320(2) and 0.32091(2) respectively; large A value results from lack of consideration of torsional motion. For these two vibrational levels most rotational states (about 70 percent) display quantum-beat features attributed to coherently excited singlet–triplet eigenstates. The linewidth in transformed spectra for level #, below the dissociation threshold, increases with increasing total angular momentumJ whereas level that is 375 below shows a small linewidth independent of J. This is because correlation of the triplet state with dissociation to form radical products results in a decreased lifetime of the triplet state in the tunneling region. A systematic dependence on rotational quantum number implies Coriolis-induced vibrational coupling of triplet states to dissociating continuum on the exit side of the dissociation barrier.

The Adventures of Tintin

Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Quite simply, The Adventures of Tintin is a model of modern movie craftsmanship. It's also, I'm afraid, rather dull.
With the best use of motion capture yet, Spielberg has translated the story of the youthful Tintin, his spirited pooch Snowy and the eccentric Captain Haddock into a first class action adventure that serves as the perfect cross between "Pirates of the Caribbean" and Spielberg's own "Indiana Jones" series.
It evokes Saturday afternoon serials in an age when most of the audience will never have seen one. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed myself.
If, like me, you find the movie technique known as motion capture creepy, you might be put off going to see Steven Spielberg's 3-D The Adventures of Tintin.
Action-packed, gorgeous, and faithfully whimsical: Hergé thought Spielberg the only director capable of filming Tintin. He was onto something.
Think of The Adventures of Tintin as a song of innocence and experience, able to combine a sweet sense of childlike wonder and pureness of heart with the most worldly and sophisticated of modern technology. More than anything, it's just a whole lot of fun.
The relentless pace is a big part of the fun. Who ever heard of a slow rollercoaster, anyway? You'll have to ride this one in the theater, though. It simply won't be the same at home.
Everything in The Adventures of Tintin is meticulous - this is a Steven Spielberg movie, after all.
Everything he did in live-action movies with rolling boulders and runaway convoys he does bigger and better - by a factor of ten - in every frame. At the end of two hours, my jaw ached from grinning.
Never quite as resonant as Spielberg's earliest "Indiana Jones" films, in which, for all the clamor, it often feels like something real and vital and human is at stake. But at its best, this film is as joyful as anything in those movies, and that is something of a movie miracle.
That's what we get with The Adventures of Tintin - an unplayable video game that's fast-paced and amusing but never coming close to the best director Steven Spielberg has offered when in his "pure entertainment" mode.
The movie comes at you in a whoosh, like a volcano of creative ideas in full eruption.
Although I personally still find the rubber-faced, pseudo-human figures produced by this technique unsettling, the work done by Spielberg and Jackson's animation teams here is exquisite.
Such are the timeless joys of the books (and now the movie), this sparkling absurdity and knack for buckling swash under the worst of circumstances.
Fast on its feet, using 3D and motion-capture animation to kick its comedy-adventure into a superhuman gear, Steven Spielberg's The Adventures of Tintin is a wittily kineticized adaptation of the internationally loved comic books.
Was The Adventures of Tintin a movie that I personally vibed with? Not really. It felt overstuffed and busy, its charm a little calculated, its outsized budget a tad too ostentatiously on display. But it's a rollicking yarn told with scads of invention and energy, not to mention a technical marvel of the first order.
In a movie year of more than two dozen animated films, this and "Rango" tower over all others. Welcome to America, Tintin. It's great getting to know you.
While it's essentially just another slick Spielberg action machine, it's operating effectively on all cylinders throughout.
A visually dazzling adaptation of the legendary – at least outside the US – comic book series by Belgian artist Herge.
Motion capture, which transforms actors into cartoon characters in a vividly animated landscape, is the technique Spielberg has been waiting for - the Christmas gift, or senior-citizen birthday present that he's dreamed of since his movie childhood.
This lifelong Tintin fan was more than pleased, even while having to acknowledge that the movie lacks the subtle state-of-the-world commentary that Hergé often smuggled into his creation.
Clearly rejuvenated by his collaboration with producer Peter Jackson, and blessed with a smart script and the best craftsmanship money can buy, Spielberg has fashioned a whiz-bang thrill ride that's largely faithful to the wholesome spirit of his source but still appealing to younger, Tintin-challenged audiencs.
Sadly, Herge isn't around to see The Adventures of Tintin, Spielberg's crisp, richly rendered animated adaptation, which could be counted as both a success and a failure. Spielberg has brought Tintin to the big screen all right, but not quite to life.

Dec 30, 2011If your looking for sentimentalism or deep character development this isn't quite the movie your looking for, Tintin, however, is anIf your looking for sentimentalism or deep character development this isn't quite the movie your looking for, Tintin, however, is an exhilarating thrill ride from start to finish.In this picture, Spielberg seeks mainly to entertain, not necessarily teach or challenge his viewers. This "Indiana Jones-esque" film is fast paced and filled with very witty dialogue, charming characters and a clear yet compelling story. It is visually stunning; much effort was evidently placed on the animation and detailed sound design; the editing and 'cinematography' also gave it a very cinematic look (kudos to that single shot chase scene) and John Williams gives another exceptional score. Despite these positives, the movie is quite exhausting: there was non-stop action-adventure with very little time for air. Yes, that's right, Tintin could have done very well with more development, to fully flesh out the characters and add more weight and depth to the solid story. The narration needed more patience, but, the movie was way too much fun to let this get in the way too much.… Full Review »

Is that the best we can do? Is there any sort of QMP introspection that libvirt can do, where we can know UP FRONT what level of panic support is provided by the qemu binary and the machine type being run in that binary? I'm afraid we've created a complicated mess of what options work when, and I'm not looking forward to what it will take to encode all the correct workarounds into libvirt. Ideally, I'd like a one-shot question: is qemu new enough to sanely support reversible '-device pvpanic'? If so, honor <on_crash> settings, if not, reject attempts to use any <on_crash> setting other than the default that matches qemu 1.4 behavior - but I might be persuaded to also support qemu 1.5/1.6 behaviors if they are easy enough to detect and work with; there's also the question that the behavior is machine-type dependent (-M pc-1.5 behaves differently than -M pc-1.6). > > I suggest that this patch be included in an 1.6.1 release as soon as > possible, and perhaps in the 1.5 branch too. > > Cc: qemu-stable nongnu org > Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini redhat com> > --- > gdbstub.c | 3 --- > vl.c | 6 ++---- > 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake redhat com> /me why oh why did we rush such a half-baked builtin design into qemu 1.5 again? > +++ b/vl.c > @@ -637,9 +637,8 @@ static const RunStateTransition runstate_transitions_def[] = { > { RUN_STATE_WATCHDOG, RUN_STATE_RUNNING }, > { RUN_STATE_WATCHDOG, RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE }, > > - { RUN_STATE_GUEST_PANICKED, RUN_STATE_PAUSED }, > + { RUN_STATE_GUEST_PANICKED, RUN_STATE_RUNNING }, Is 'cont' the only viable way to escape PANICKED, or is it also reasonable to support 'stop' as a way to transition from PANICKED to PAUSED? That is, management may want to make the state reversible but still leave the guest paused, so this patch may be incomplete. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

17 Problems Only People With Dyed Hair Have
I guess my skin just is blue now.
1. The major decision paralysis that strikes when you decide to try something new.
Can I do it all at once?????
2. Becoming a master in a very specific kind of chemistry.
3. Leaving the bath tub looking like this.
4. Or, if you're a redhead, leaving it looking like a crime scene.
5. Waking up on pillows that look like those of a Troll Doll.
6. Having to look like a Little House on the Prairie-era woman when you shower.
7. Or, risking looking like this when you come out.
8. Having to think on your feet if you're caught in the rain.
9. Wondering what you could buy with the money you spend on your hair.
10. Knowing the box results will never look as awesomely bright as their pictures.
11. Running out of gloves and being like, "It'll probably be fine."
12. Realizing that you can no longer scratch your head without consequences.
13. The unparalleled joy you get from Day 1 of your new color.
14. And knowing it will inevitably fade.
15. Being unable to muster the patience required for the growing-out process.
16. Deciding to throw more hair dye at the problem.
17. And starting the process all over again.
Because it's just too much fun to stop now.

If an edit that only adds or removes a tag should be closed as "Too Minor," why do we allow them?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Tags are a very important part of a question. They are what classify it. They are also a big part of finding a question and getting it answered.
They provide visibility in the following ways:
The title and tags of a question are what make the question identifiable, which is why you are allowed to edit both without the character limit.
Approving tag only edits help get a question answered because it improves its visibility in the right places. I'm not saying all tag only edits should be approved, sometimes when there is a lot of other things that need fixing I will reject them, but on the whole they are quite useful.
There was even a privilege that allows you to edit a question's tags without going through the review system (it was since removed, because of "confusion").
If the post is correct and the only problem with it is tags. I'm totally fine with someone doing a tag only edit.
If the post has a lot of other issues well then it's up to reviewers to reject it.
So I don't think we should prevent tag only edits.

(AP) Police say a man's excuse for speeding through a small Connecticut town takes the cake _ or, at least, the cookie.
A state trooper who stopped the 1993 BMW last fall says its driver, 28-year-old Justin Vonkummer of Millerton, N.Y., blamed his driving problems on an errant Oreo.
Vonkummer told the trooper that an Oreo had just slipped from his fingers as he dunked it in a cup of milk, and that he was trying to fish it out when he lost control of his car.
Prosecutors learned in court this week that Vonkummer had been charged with speeding and driving under a suspended license _ not driving under the influence, as a clerk had mistakenly noted in the court records.
Vonkummer's attorney declined to comment. The case is pending.

First, you only need to post to one of the lists or the other, I think most of the developers read both. Next, although KMM shows the previous balance on the reconcile dialog, I don't believe it is actually used at all during the reconcile process, so you don't really need to worry about it, as long as you can get the ending balance to be what you want/expect. That said, I believe the starting balance on the reconcile dialog is the balance of all transactions marked as reconciled, although transaction dates may be taken into account. I've just learned to ignore the start balance, and not to delete any transactions marked as reconciled or to mark any as reconciled except by doing a reconciliation. However, if you can get the previous balance correct by adding back the duplicate transaction, you should be able to add a matching transaction (withdraw instead of deposit for example) to get the ending balance correct. Then you should be able to delete the matched pair of transactions without affecting the ending balance. Jack
