Hello, Hope everyone's day is going well.
I have a question about adding social media icons such as (twitter, facebook, youtube, ect)to the footer area.
what I'm trying to do is this. (go to the bottom of the page) http://www.falloutboyrock.com/
However I'm not sure how to add IMAGES to the footer. I know how to add links, but how do I actually go about adding those images and then have them sit next to each-other, going across the bottom of the page?
I downloaded the plugin "Simple Social Plugins) and right after I installed it my entire site crashed with a "internal error 500.0.message" so id like to refrain from using that plugin if possible.
ALSO I have installed the "Custom Headers and Footers" plugin and it gives you the option of writing in the "Blog Footer" and the "Footer." The Blog footer seems to be where the (privacy, all rights reserved and copy right symbol goes) is should the social media links go in the Footer or the Blog Footer?
my website is http://www.littletimeoff.com
if for any reason you need to know, I'm using the twenty ten child theme.
Thanks so much for your time.

I consulted Mr. Robert O Crawford III at his office. He listen to me with proper attention and spent almost 1.25 hour. He discussed the matter thoroughly, otherwise big firm lawers do not give time more than half an hour. His staff was also very respectful and he see me off personally to the door with respect and smile. I strongly recommend him.

I went to Mr. Crawford concerning a licensing matter. I was more than pleased. I highly recommend him. Not only did he give me the advice I needed but also peace of mind. I left his office feeling overjoyed.

Olympic gymnast Nadia Comaneci is profiled in this heart-warming family film. Nadia began training competitively at the age of six, with the now world-famous coach, Bela Karolyi and his wife Marta. At fourteen, she became the first Olympic gymnast to score a perfect 10 and walked away with five gold medals, two silver medals and one bronze at the 1976 Olympics. The petite gymnast from Romania was now an overnight media sensation, inspiring a whole new generation of future Nadias. But, fame came with a high price. As Nadia grew into a young woman she struggled with isolation, weight gain that threatened her career and the fear of exceeding increasingly high standards.
Nadia captures the hard work and determination of a young girl driven to success. The film stars Oscar® nominee Carrie Snodgrass (Diary of A Mad Housewife), Talia Balsam (Without A Trace), two-time Emmy® nominee Conchata Ferrell and Johann Carlo (Quiz Show).

One of the most well-known—and controversial—methods of cancer detection is the PSA test. PSA stands for prostate-specific antigen, the marker in blood that can indicate the presence of prostate cancer.
A complex and unexpected mix of emotions sometimes follows the end of cancer treatment. While you are relieved that your cancer is in remission, it's normal to feel worried that the cancer could come back.
It's that time of year to start planning your family's Thanksgiving festivities. While planning your meal and making your guest list, be sure to avoid inviting foodborne illness to the table!

It's business as usual down at Country Crossing despite rumors of a possible raid by the governor's illegal gaming task force this weekend.
Those rumors were put to rest after the head of the task force, David Barber, resigned after recently winning $2,300 dollars at a legal casino in Mississippi
Late Friday, district attorney Doug Valeska sent a letter to Governor Riley asking him to quote "suspend any further involvement in Houston County".
Country Crossing officials say they're happy that D.A. Valeska has stepped and say won't let this on-going saga dampen their grand opening celebration.
"We were made aware of Doug Valeska's letter to the governor last night, along with I think everyone else. We could not be happier with the decision he has made to bring some civility to the case to come inside and talk to our people and find out what we're doing in here, something that most everyone else has refused to do," said Doug Rainer with Ronnie Gilley Properties.
Country Crossing has a full slate of musicians performing Sunday including Lo-Cash Cowboys and Lorrie Morgan.

Kimber is metal injection molding. I would see if I could return it and get one from Ed Brown or Wilson Combat.
This is a discussion on Kimber Ambi Safety Quality? within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Hello, I ordered a Kimber ambidextrous thumb safety. I'm left handed, and this will be replacing an STI ambi thumb safety on my carry weapon. ...
I ordered a Kimber ambidextrous thumb safety. I'm left handed, and this will be replacing an STI ambi thumb safety on my carry weapon.
It was a tossup between King's and Kimber due to a unique design feature shared by both, and King's has been supplying the military and are constantly out of stock, so Kimber it was.
It's due to arrive tomorrow.
My question to you all is this: Have you experienced any problems related to the Kimber ambi safety, and if so, what was the nature of the malfunction and approximate round count?
Thank you,
Josh <><
Kimber is metal injection molding. I would see if I could return it and get one from Ed Brown or Wilson Combat.
From what I understand, those are MIM too. The only one I'm aware of that is not MIM these days is the one I have - the STI/SVI.
I'm avoiding the tab that goes under the grip panel in favor of the modified tongue-in-groove hammer pin and cutout.
Josh <><
I wasn't aware that Brown and Wilson were MIM, but you may be right. You might want to call Brownell's and ask them.
Otherwise, the only real problems I've heard with the MIM is if you drop the gun or are rough on it.
Correction: Wilson is MIM, Brown is not.
Josh <><
But the Brown is the different style I believe. However, they are the same price within a buck or two.
Brown still uses the ear that goes under the grip. I checked. My only options were Kimber or King's (King's being preferable.) Mueschke makes one that is retained by the sear pin, but they have notoriously poor quality and the sear pin design is already weak.
Doing some more research, it appears Brown uses Investment Casting, which is somewhat similar and creates its own set of problems - air pockets and such.
MIM is about 80-90% as strong as forged, and if it fails, it will fail within the first few uses.
Kimber uses MIM almost exclusively, as does Wilson. The STI Spartan uses an MIM frame and forged slide and barrel (actually made by Armscor).
MIM is in more gun stuff these days than I'd care to guess at. The process has improved to the point that it can replace the old forgings. I'm not saying it's desirable or undesirable, but rather how it is.
I've only come across two failures of Kimber safeties on an extensive Google search, and one of those involved a solid knock which would have likely broken a forged safety as well.
MIM doesn't lend itself to "springyness" as does forged, but that's a small matter as long as parts fit tightly and a lighter safety spring is used (generally recommended for ambi safeties anyway...)
I guess we'll see how it does. If it doesn't do well, it'll get shipped back for warranty coverage. Their service bites (took them too long to send me the trace number on the order - had to bug them) but I don't let things go.
I tried a friend's subcompact Kimber outfitted with this safety, and it feels like it does fit as it should.
We'll see I guess.
Josh <><
Correction: MIM is now claimed to be around 98% the strength of forged, with cast being least desirable for quality due to the probability of flaws.
Josh <><
MIM parts on Kimbers break all the time Really not to well done
Having shot 1911s for 30 years the Brown ambi is the best I have ever used and I have not had one break
Josh, as you are a lefty, I would really suggest calling Cylinder & Slide (or pick your custom smith) and spend the $$ to have a custom lefty safety made. All ambis suffer from the dovetail joint loosening up over time.
This could be remedied by using a regular safety with an extended shaft and squared, tapped end. Your left thumb tab- a plate with square cut hole- would would press over the squared end, and be held by (we'll say) a 2-56 or 3-48domehead allen screw. Hey, it's only money, right...?
Thanks folks.
Mike, I've seen one break under normal use. Anything can fail I guess.
The safety is supposed to be here sometime today. I'll keep my STI safety around just in case, but hopefully it won't be needed.
We'll see.
Josh <><
I have ambi safeties on both my Kimbers -- Ultra CDP II & Desert Warrior. Never a problem with them, or anything else.
"We're paratroopers. We're supposed to be surrounded!" Dick Winters
Josh, thanks for the post.
It's ironic that you were the one who asked for advice and I would venture to guess that most of the people who read this thread will learn from you.
There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil.
Who is John Galt?
Thanks folks.
It got here today. I installed it. It took no fitting to the sear - Kimber molds them pre-fit to guns which are in spec.
Compared to the STI safety, it feels and looks cheap. I had to take a lot of flash off and smooth down rough spots to keep it from binding. I also had to take the slop out of the joint.
BUT! It's on now, and is performing well. MIM parts will fail early on if they're going to fail, but flipping it on and off 100 times as well as 50 rounds or so through the gun didn't reveal any further flaws.
I really wish I could have gotten a King's as the concept is great IMO, but Kimber's execution leaves something to be desired.
I'm keeping the STI safety as a backup, but with a light spring on this one I don't think it will fail.
Here's some pics; excuse the scratches. They're from the STI safety before I got things smoothed down on it. Need to buff them out now that they're visible I guess.

Confirmation of Registration
Once you have enrolled in courses in MyUI, your registration is complete and you can consider your registration confirmed. View your course schedule in MyUI at any point before or during the semester.
Changes in Registration
Registration changes can be accomplished as follows:
Add a Course
Use MyUI to add courses after registration opens (see timelines chart above) until midnight of the first day of your course. On or after the first day of the course, contact the PMBA Registration Office at email@example.com or 319-335-3739 for assistance in adding a course. See the MyUI Quick Guide for instructions on using MyUI.
Drop a Course
Prior to the first day of the course, you can drop courses through MyUI. You must drop the course prior to midnight on the first day of the course. Withdrawal from the course after midnight on the first day of the course requires the completion of the Notice of Withdrawal Form.
Tuition Responsibility for Dropped Courses
You will be held to at least 10% tuition responsibility for any course in which you are officially enrolled unless your withdrawal is received prior to midnight the day before the first day of the class (i.e., you must drop the course by 11:59 p.m. the day before the course starts). The Tuition Responsibility Schedule shows the last date by which withdrawal from a course must be received to avoid tuition responsibility, as well as when 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% tuition responsibility are in effect.
If you do not attend class, it does not constitute course withdrawal. Failure to provide official notice of withdrawal may result receiving a grade of "F" in the course. This Tuition Responsibility Schedule is specific to this program, which is separate and sometimes different from the University's Tuition Responsibility Schedule.
Course Material Responsibility for Dropped Courses
You will be held to the full cost of any required course materials typically charged to your U-Bill (cases, simulations, course packets) if you do not withdrawal prior to the first day of the course.
Enrollment Restrictions
Most students will enroll in one or two courses per semester, often coupled with an intersession course in fall and spring semesters. Students considering enrolling in more than two concurrent courses in a semester should discuss this decision with their advisor, given the intense workload required for successful completion.
Students are not allowed to take two courses that meet within the same day/night. This includes courses where only one of the days or nights overlap.
Summer: Students are allowed to take 3 courses (9 semester hours) in summer session, with no more than 2 concurrent courses at any point in time (one course ends before the next one starts).
Fall & Spring (excluding Intersession): Students may enroll in 2 concurrent courses. With prior approval, students may enroll in 3 courses concurrently if they meet all of the following criteria:
- Are a regularly admitted student
- Have completed at least 6 hours in the program
- Have received grades of B or better in all MBA course work and earned a GPA of 3.5 or above in MBA course work
Intersession: Maximum Intersession enrollment is 1 course (3 semester hours) per semester.
Winter: Maximum Winter term enrollment is 1 course (3 semester hours).
PreMBA Enrollment Restrictions:
- PreMBA students may enroll in a maximum of five (5) courses (15 semester hours) with no time restrictions (Credits must be no more than 10 years old to be counted toward fulfillment of the degree).
- One of the 5 courses in PreMBA status must include one of the following: MBA:8160 Managerial Economics, MBA:8140 Corporate Financial Reporting, MBA:8150 Business Analytics, or MBA:8180 Managerial Finance.
Course Prerequisite(s)A student wishing to enroll in a course that lists a prerequisite must have satisfied the prerequisite or been waived from the prerequisite before the course begins. More information about prerequisites can be found on our Plan of Study page.
Full-time/Half-time Student StatusFull-time student status is defined as follows for graduate students:
- 9 semester hours (s.h.) per semester during the academic year; 5 s.h. during summer session
- 5 semester hours (s.h.) per semester during the academic year; 3 s.h. during summer session
Enrollment in Full-time MBA Courses
Students admitted to the Professional MBA Program may complete up to 15 credit hours of Full-time MBA course work at the Iowa City campus. MBA courses are offered in Iowa City during the fall and spring semesters.
Students interested in taking courses on the main campus should contact their site director and must meet on-campus registration requirements (such as student health). Please note tuition rates for on-campus, full-time courses are different than tuition rates for Professional MBA courses.
Full-time MBA students have priority over such courses.

It automatically redirects my home page to new post.
And added numbers to the end of my homepage on my other blog?
Also it didn't even redirect 404s!
So basically it did things it wasn't supposed to and didn't do what it was meant to. Garbage!
I deleted all info and removed the plug in and everything went back to normal.

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.
And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes.

Diabetes Health Center
Most With Diabetes Not Exercising
Jan. 26, 2007 -- Exercise is among the best things people with diabetes can do to manage their disease, but most either are not getting the message or are ignoring it, a new report confirms.
Only 39% of surveyed adults with diabetes engaged in regular physical activity, compared with 58% of adults who did not have the disease, according to a report in the February issue of Diabetes Care.
And activity levels declined as risk factors for type 2 diabetes increased.
The national survey of more than 23,000 adults with diabetes, those at high risk for the disease, and people without diabetes was conducted by researchers from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center.
Lead researcher Elaine Morrato, MPH, DRPH, tells WebMD she was not surprised to find that those with diabetes were more sedentary than the general public. But she was surprised so few at-risk people were physically active.
"Exercise has been shown to be instrumental in preventing diabetes among people at high risk and in helping to manage symptoms in people with the disease," she says.
Troubling Findings
Study after study has confirmed that regular exercise, combined with modest weight loss and a healthy diet, can lower type 2 diabetes risk and improve outcomes once people have the disease.
In one of the most persuasive, researchers from the Diabetes Prevention Program Research Group concluded that diet and regular exercise were more effective than one of the most widely prescribed drug treatments for preventing type 2 diabetes.
The American Diabetes Association recommends 30 minutes a day of aerobic exercise, at least five times a week. Prevention guidelines released by the ADA last August recommend 2.5 hours of regular physical activity a week.
People at high risk for developing diabetes should be even more physically active, depending on their ability to exercise.

I just build a site for a filmfestival in Denmark. Movies are added to a program and a calendar, etc., with a lot af data attached, like director, original title, etc.
But it seems like the WP search doesn't support search in custom fields. I cannot find search for a movie's original title.
I've been Googling for hours now. I can't find a solution... In my ears it actually sounds quite simple, maybe that's why Google isn't giving me anything.
Any help is appreciated.

Stunning absolutly stunning
Wspaniala grafika
Ok I had to say something. I think I'm in love with you. This is amazing... I love it!
Wonderful job! It remids me (in a darker version) the painting of Brian Froud because of the texture and the blue tone i think. great job
Old, maybe, but still very very beautiful. I really like all the different hues of blue in this, and one's eyes could just get lost in it gazing at all that wonderful detail.
woah. thats really cool
Searing, stunning, gorgeous work. I could gaze at this for hours and lose myself in its etherial majesty.

All Day Pea Soup (Crock Pot)
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 4 hrs
This is one of our favorite crock pot soups. It's very quick to assemble and very tasty with some crusty bread on a cold and rainy day. It is economical and vegetarian friendly.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 8 ounces dried split green peas
- 1⁄2 cup onion, diced
- 1⁄2 cup carrot, diced
- 1⁄2 cup celery, diced
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 cups chicken stock or 3 cups vegetable stock
- 1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon bouquet garni
- 1⁄4 lb andouille sausages (optional) or 1⁄4 lb Polish sausage, sliced (optional)
- Place all ingredients except for the sausage into your crock pot (put the peas on the bottom). The peas will grow some during cooking, so do not make more than 3/4 full to start with (ask me how I know). If you do not have bouquet garni, use your favorite blend of herbs for soup. Make sure the liquid at least covers the peas. 3 cups works in my oval pot, but it make take more in yours.
- Cook on LO for 4 to 6 hours, depending on crock pot. With my old crock pot, I could cook this for 8 hours on low, but with the new one it's closer to 6. This will also work on High for 2-3 hours.
- Place the sausage in for the last 20 minutes of cooking. Ideally, we grill the sausage and stir it in at the table, but in the real world, I've even microwaved the sausage and then stirred it in at the table.
- If you are serving a mixed crowd (some vegetarian, some not) make this with the vegetable stock and serve the sausage on the side. It will please both groups, and the soup will not suffer. If you leave out the sausage, you may find that you need to add a second teaspoon of herbs towards the end of cooking. If you have smoked paprika, it is a nice addition to add the smoky flavor that is missing from the sausage.
- Taste and adjust seasonings. It sometimes needs salt and pepper. Remove the bay leaf.
- Leftovers reheat well and will freeze. If you have a large crock pot, it is an easy recipe to double.
Most Helpful
This was VERY good. I did double the recipe, and I substituted diced ham for the sausage, but it was so good that I had to make a second batch a few days later.
Thanks for sharing the recipe! It's the first thing I tried in my new 2.5 qt. slow cooker (my first Crock Pot). I added more diced onion, carrot and celery and slightly more liquid (after the first 2 or 3 hours), and some diced, cooked, ham towards the end. The soup was delicious, and there's enough left for lunch.
I had never had pea soup before, so I had no idea what to expect. But my vegetarian version was wonderful...very mellow and pleasant. Definitely a keeper.

Acknowledgments: The authors thank the nursing staff of the respiratory intensive care unit of Hospital Clnic of Barcelona for their technical support.
Grant Support: In part by grant Hospital Clnic-1991 (Dr. Ferrer was a 1991 Postdoctoral Research Fellow of Hospital Clnic), a grant from the Beques de Formacio d'Investigadors del Departament d'Ensenyament de la Generalitat de Catalunya, 1992, and grant Fiss 92/0104.
Copyright ©2004 by the American College of Physicians
Objective: To assess selective digestive decontamination for preventing nosocomial pneumonia and mortality in mechanically ventilated patients.
Design: Prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study.
Setting: Respiratory intensive care unit of a 1000-bed teaching hospital.
Patients: 80 patients receiving mechanical ventilation for more than 72 hours.
Interventions: Patients received selective digestive decontamination using polymyxin E, tobramycin, and amphotericin B through a nasogastric tube and also topically in the oropharynx; control patients received placebo. All patients received intravenous cefotaxime for 4 days or other systemic antibiotics if required.
Measurements: Bacteriologic surveillance (three times a week) was done by quantitatively culturing tracheal aspirates, pharyngeal swabs, and gastric juice. The diagnosis of pneumonia was based on quantitative cultures of protected specimen brush samples (≥ 103 CFU/mL [colony forming units/mL]) or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (≥ 104 CFU/mL) and autopsy findings.
Results: Bronchial, oropharyngeal, and gastric colonization by gram-negative bacilli and Candida species was lower in the selective digestive decontamination group compared with the placebo group. Nonsignificant differences were found in the incidence of nosocomial infections (28% compared with 37%; odds ratio, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.35 to 1.25) and nosocomial pneumonia (18% compared with 24%; odds ratio, 0.7; CI, 0.33 to 1.46) and in the crude mortality rate (31% compared with 27%; odds ratio, 1.21; CI, 0.63 to 2.34) when comparing digestive decontamination with placebo, respectively.
Conclusions: Selective digestive decontamination in our mechanically ventilated patients significantly decreased the colonization rate of gram-negative bacilli and of Candida species but not of Staphylococcus aureus. It did not decrease the incidence of nosocomial pneumonia, mortality, length of stay, or the duration of mechanical ventilation.

I just experienced something strange in Windows 7. I could hear how the harddrive was used at regular intervals of about one second. The same thing seemed to steal my CPU timeslice (from my own application) at about the same regular intervals. I opened up the task manager and started looking at the processes there, but could not find any offender. No single process had page faults of CPU usage that had the same regularity, but nonetheless I started killing off services, such as Windows Search, Windows Defender, and so on.
Eventually the disturbance went away by itself.
What I did see (I think) is that sometimes one process -- any one -- would spike page faults and/or CPU usage at about once every second. Which leads me to belive that the cause of this was a driver. Is there some kind of defragmenting driver (or at least some type of driver) that sometimes does hard drive reads/writes at intervals like this?

"Watching the Bears Near Mendenhall" Juneau Things to Do Tip by TooTallFinn24
Juneau Things to Do: 149 reviews and 308 photos
Wildlife abounds in the Juneau area. Even bears can be spotted frequently in not only remote areas but also within towns.
Just down the road from the Mendenhall Glacier is an area of a small creek and above grade walk way where you can view a lot of the areas wildlife. With a little luck you will be able to spot one or more black or brown bears.
Interestingly the difference between brown and black bears is not the color and black bears can be black, brown or cinnamon colored. The main difference between the black and brown bear is the formers straight facial structure. The brown bear is larger than the black bear with a distinct shoulder hump and bigger claws.
On our visit to the area we saw a mother brown bear and her two cubs. While the two cubs played and then decided to sleep in a tree the mother guarded them from any danger at the base of the tree. It made for a great photo opportunity since the bears were less than 25 feet away below the elevated walkway.
Directions: Just south of the Mendenall Glacier Visitor Center and west of the Mendenhall Parking Lot.

Abstract"This project addresses the USDA request for innovative application of information technology to convey important nutritional information and awareness of health issues and provide community based interventions to advance healthy lifestyles at work, at school, at home, and at play or leisure. We will create a real video game that 1) will increase children's awareness of the relationship of healthy food choices and physical activity to body weight and overall health, 2) will increase children's self-efficacy regarding their ability to make healthy food and physical activity choices, and 3) children will choose to play because it is a real video game that they find to be as entertaining as the video games they play for fun. Awareness and self-efficacy are important first steps for changing health related behaviors. While there are many programs in place to address overweight and obesity, the problem continues to grow in the U.S. Our video game can provide a piece to the puzzle. Since children will eagerly play the game, it is an inexpensive and effective means of introducing them to the problem and of helping them build confidence that they can help prevent it from happening to them. The game will be designed to complement programs being developed and already in place in schools, community organizations, homes, and sponsored by governmental agencies. Phase I will adapt a video game from a previous SBIR project to test feasibility of the project strategy."

Anisotropy of Polarizability of Polymeric Chains44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727089View Description Hide Description
A general formula is given for γ2, the square anisotropy of the polarizability of a molecule, in terms of bond polarizabilities and angles between bonds. Expressions are derived for 〈γ2〉, the average over configurations, for a chain of N axially symmetric units. This is done for the freely jointed model and for the diamond‐lattice model. The formulas are valid for small N as well as for large N. For both models 〈γ2〉 increases linearly with N for large N.
Calculation of the Surface Tension of a Simple‐Cubic Crystal According to Two Different Methods44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727090View Description Hide Description
A comparison is made of the surface tension of a simple‐cubic crystal calculated according to two different methods: (i) from the variation of the surfacefree energy with surface area and (ii) from the surface‐stress tensor.
A Lennard‐Jones 12–6 potential is employed for the interaction between pairs of atoms and the effects of surface relaxation are investigated extensively. The numerical results show that the two surface tensions approach one another as the relaxation of the surface region of the crystal is extended further into the crystal.
Reduction of the Fourth‐Order Asymmetric‐Rotor Hamiltonian44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727091View Description Hide Description
By use of the angular‐momentum commutation relations, the fourth‐order asymmetric‐rotor Hamiltonian for molecules of orthorhombic symmetry has been considerably simplified. The number of rotational coefficients has been reduced to 19: three coefficients of second power, six coefficients of the fourth power, and 10 coefficients of sixth power in the angular momentum.
Infrared Spectrum and Normal‐Coordinate Analysis of SF444(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727092View Description Hide Description
The vibrational spectrum of sulfur tetrafluoride has been examined in the gas phase to 33 cm−1. A previous assignment of the fundamental vibrations has been revised. A normal‐coordinate calculation, employing mean amplitudes of vibration as additional constraints to the vibrational problem, has been used to support the proposed assignment.
Force Fields for Group IV Tetrafluorides and Group V Trifluorides44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727093View Description Hide Description
The Coriolis zeta constants of the degenerate modes of SiF4, GeF4, NF3, PF3, and AsF3 were obtained from infrared‐band contour measurements. These Coriolis coupling data provided the necessary constraints for determining unique force fields for the F 2 and E symmetry species of the XF4 and XF3 molecules, respectively. In an attempt to limit the force field for the A 1 species of the XF3 molecules, the rotational distortion constants, which are functions of both the A 1 and E species force constants, were calculated for a range of values of the F 12 interaction force constant. For the purpose of this calculation, the E species force constants that were determined from Coriolis coupling data were held fixed. For NF3, a satisfactory value of F 12 was obtained using the rotational distortion data. However, the rotational distortion data were not useful in fixing the A 1 species force fields for PF3 and AsF3.
Rodlike Behavior of Poly(n‐butyl)isocyanate from Dielectric Measurements44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727094View Description Hide Description
Dielectricmeasurements have been made on dilute benzene solutions of poly(n‐butyl)isocyanatewhere R = n‐C4H9, at 22.5°C over a frequency range 10−1 to 2×106 Hz. Measurements of relaxation time τ on six samples which have molecular weights in the range 1.4×105 to 2.3×106 showed that τ depends on molecular weight to the 2.7 power. In addition, only one dispersion region was observed for each sample and the corresponding dielectric increments were very large. We conclude from these observations that (1) the poly(n‐butyl)isocyanate molecule is a rigid rod whose relaxation time in dilute solution is associated with the end‐over‐end rotation of the entire rodlike molecule around its minor axis, and (2) the net dipole moments of the molecule have a direction parallel to the major axis of the molecule. Calculation of the length of the molecule from relaxation data indicates that the conformation of the polymeric chain appears to be nonplanar and possibly helical. The dipole moments calculated from the static dielectric constant were not directly proportional to the molecular weight as expected. To explain this a model of the polymerization growth step, in which dipole reversal takes place, was proposed. In this model chain element dipolar senses are not uniform throughout the chain but undergo reversal after a finite sequence length which is independent of the over‐all length.
Direct Radiative Exciton—Exciton Annihilation44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727095View Description Hide Description
Several experiments on organic crystals have demonstrated the existence of triplet—triplet exciton annihilation in terms of fluoresence from the resulting singlet‐exciton state. We point out the possibility of direct emission of a photon from a pair of excitons and estimate the corresponding lifetime and bimolecular rate constant. While this decay channel for triplet—triplet collisions is very weak compared with decay into a singlet exciton in a crystal such as anthracene, the process is observable in principle as a characteristic emission with a transition probability of ≲ 105 sec−1 at an energy equal to that of two interactingexcitons. Its rate depends strongly on the relative energies of all the molecular states involved. Conditions for observation of this emission band are discussed.
ESR of Cu(NO3)2 and CuF2 Molecules Oriented in Neon and Argon Matrices at 4°K44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727096View Description Hide Description
An experimental apparatus is described which allows the trapping of preferentially oriented molecules in neon and argon matrices at 4°K and the measurement of their ESRspectra at various orientations relative to the magnetic field. Application to Cu(NO3)2, vaporizing at 150°C, and CuF2, vaporizing at 925°C, demonstrates that the degree of orientation is dependent upon the temperature of the vaporizing molecule and the matrix gas used. The ESRspectra of highly oriented Cu(NO3)2 in neon at 4°K (there was essentially no orientation in argon) indicate that the molecule is planar with the four nitrate oxygen atoms surrounding the Cu++ ion in a square array. The g and A values are very similar to those found in copper chelate molecules: g∥ = 2.2489±0.003, g⊥ = 2.0522±0.0005, A∥ (63Cu) = 570±3 Mc/sec, and A⊥ (63Cu) = 50±3 Mc/sec. Computer simulation of the spectra not only confirms this assignment but provides an estimate of the degree of orientation as a function of the inclination. CuF2 isolated in argon at 4°K has been found to be highly oriented also. Its ESR assignment supports the view that the molecule is linear with magnetic parameters g∥ = 1.913±0.001, g⊥ = 2.601±0.001, A∥ (63Cu) = 1933±5 Mc/sec, A⊥ (63Cu) = 2090±5 Mc/sec, A∥ (F) = 308±1 Mc/sec, and A⊥ (F) = 206±1 Mc/sec. The unusually large hyperfine interaction with the Cu nucleus indicates a substantial admixture of its 4s orbital. For both molecules the assignments were greatly facilitated by the partial orientation of the molecules in the matrices. The optical spectra of CuF2 in neon at 4°K yielded the asymmetric stretching frequency at 769 cm−1. No absorption bands were found between 8900 and 3300 Å.
Franck—Condon Factors for the Ionization of H2 and D244(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727097View Description Hide Description
Franck—Condon factors for ionization of H2(1Σ g +) and D2(1Σ g +) are presented for 19 levels in H2 +(2Σ g +) and for 27 levels in D2 +(2Σ g +). Comparisons are made with calculations, using less accurate potential functions for the molecular ion. Vibrational eigenenergies are given for D2 +.
On Polymer Dynamics44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727098View Description Hide Description
The properties of a polymer solution in which the polymer dynamics contain both bending and spring forces are determined in the free‐draining limit. All properties may be determined in closed form in terms of a few fundamental parameters by use of a correlation‐function technique.
Microwave Spectrum of Germylacetylene44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727099View Description Hide Description
The microwave spectrum of germylacetylene has been investigated in the region 7–36 Gc/sec. The rotational constants for the isotopic species 76GeH3 12C≡12CH, 74GeH3 12C≡12CH, 73GeH3 12C≡12CH, 72GeH3 12C≡12CH, 70GeH3 12C≡12CH, 74GeH3 13C≡12CH, 74GeH3 12C≡13CH, 72GeH3 13C≡12CH, 72GeH3 12C≡13CH have been determined to be 3553.78, 3572.40, 3582.04, 3591.97, 3612.55, 3531.69, 3423.48, 3551.60, 3442.89 Mc/sec, respectively. From these data the structural parameters r GeC=1.896 Å and r CC=1.208 Å are determined. If r CH is assumed to be 1.056 Å, then r GeH=1.521 Å and ∠HGeH=109.9°. Measurement of the Stark effect leads to a dipole moment of 0.136 D. Analysis of the hyperfine components of 73Ge transitions leads to a nuclear quadrupole coupling constant eQq of +32.5 Mc/sec.
Low‐Temperature Transport Properties of Gaseous H2, D2, and HD44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727100View Description Hide Description
A complete quantal phase‐shift calculation of the transport properties of gaseous H2, D2, HD, and some of their mixtures is presented from 10° to 300°K, based on the Lennard‐Jones (12–6) potential. It is found that H2 and D2 have slightly different intermolecular potentials, in agreement with evidence from other sources. Agreement between calculation and experiment is generally good, but there are some small but clear indications that the (12–6) potential model is oversimplified, such as the necessity to use slightly different potantial parameters for the transport properties than for the second virial coefficients.
Debye Relaxation in Symmetric‐Top—Foreign‐Gas Mixtures; Temperature Dependence of Collision Cross Sections44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727101View Description Hide Description
The Debye relaxation spectra of three symmetric‐top gases, CH3Cl, CHF3, and SO2F2, in the pure state and in dilute mixtures with the foreign gases, He, H2, D2, Ar, N2, CH4, CO2, and C3F8, were obtained over the temperature range −20° to 145°C at a frequency of 1220 MHz. Relaxation‐rate parameters and the corresponding collision cross sections are derived. The cross sections vary with the absolute temperature as T −m , where the value of m ranges from 0.3 to 0.9 for the different systems. The cross sections are considered from a classical kinetic veiwpoint and an empirical relation is obtained which accurately relates the dielectric cross section to the effective viscosity cross section (or the corresponding Lennard‐Jones parameters), the internal‐to‐orbital‐angular‐momentum ratio, and one additional parameter related in some way to the shape (prolateness or oblateness) of the top. Deviations in the shape of these spectra from the simple Debye form, which are attributable to a distribution of relaxation rates, are examined in some detail and correlated with the effective collision number.
Microwave Spectrum, Internal Barrier, Molecular Structure, and Dipole Moment of Disilanyl Fluoride44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727102View Description Hide Description
The microwave spectra of five isotopic species of disilanyl fluoride (Si2H5F) have been studied in the region 12–38 Gc/sec. Several of the ground‐state transitions are split into doublets, some into triplets, due to the coupling of internal and over‐all rotation. Analysis of the splittings gives a barrier value V 3 = 1048±40 cal/mole.
Rotational constants have been determined for molecules containing silicon−28, −29, and −30 isotopes in each position and have been used to calculate the following structure:
Stark‐effect measurements yield μ A = 0.934 D, μ B = 0.850 D, and a total dipole moment μ = 1.26±0.01 D inclined at an angle of 10° to the SiF bond.
Transport in Dense Square‐Well Fluid Mixtures44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727103View Description Hide Description
A simple kinetic theory of transport in a dense fluid of square‐well molecules, due to Longuet‐Higgins and Valleau, is here extended to mixtures. A minor extension of the original set of postulates is required. The ratio, κ/η=5/3, of the bulk and shear viscosities is again obtained and the purely diffusive Onsager relations are obeyed. In the case of a two‐component ``isotopic'' mixture, it is possible to show that the Onsager relation linking the Soret and Dufour effects is also obeyed. In this and other respects the results differ from some others recently published on the same problem and some reasons for this are discussed.
Nonstoichiometry in Uranium Dioxide44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727104View Description Hide Description
An extension of Anderson's formulation of the defect theory of nonstoichiometry is used with an oxygen—interstitial oxygen‐vacancy model to calculate the composition of the uranium dioxide phase at the lower phase boundary and the relative partial molar thermodynamic functions for oxygen at compositions ranging from the lower phase boundary to UO2.08. The model is used as a basis on which to argue that differing experimental results near UO2.00 are more likely due to differing, nonequilibrium, concentrations of uraniumvacancies than to failure to reach oxygen equilibrium. The present form of the model, with an interstitial site density of one per uranium site fails sharply at about UO2.08 rather than gradually as the oxygen content is increased from UO2.00. Discussion of the effects of alternate site densities is used to explain the observed values of the partial molar entropy of the oxygen in the range from UO2.02 to UO2.24.
On a Derivation of a Quantum‐Mechanical Linearized Boltzmann Equation44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727105View Description Hide Description
Methods recently developed to derive the classical Boltzmann equation are extended to quantum mechanics.
Absorption of Sound Near the Critical Point of the Nitrobenzene—Iso‐octane System44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727106View Description Hide Description
Measurements by the pulse technique were made of the absorption of sound in the nitrobenzene—iso‐octane system (Tc =30.2°C) over the full composition range, at temperatures of 30.5°C, 34.8°, and 44.8° for five frequencies between 4.5 and 16.5 Mc/sec. At the lowest frequency and at 0.3°C above the critical temperature, the absorption is anomalously large by a factor of 47; 14.6°C above Tc , the absorption is still in excess of classical predictions by a factor of 11. The data cannot be represented by a model involving only a single relaxation frequency. The Fixman theory is in reasonable, but not exact, agreement with the data with regard to functional conformity in temperature and frequency; in particular, the predicted frequency dependence, α/f 2∝f −5/4, at the critical state is verified within experimental error. The Fixman theory and the data preclude anything but a simple pole at the critical temperature for the reciprocal square of κ, the exponential decay constant in the long‐range correlation function. However, if it is assumed thatthe theory and experiment are in agreement over the full range of temperature and frequency, with a value of a 1=0.0296.
Magnetic‐Rotation Spectra of the 2–0 Vibration—Rotation Band of NO44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727107View Description Hide Description
Magnetic‐rotation spectra of the 2–0 bands of 14N16O and 15N16O in the 2.7‐μ region were obtained and analyzed. A qualitative explanation of the observed spectra is given. Beginning with the predicted Zeeman patterns, a classical approach is used which takes into account the circular dichroism in the region of strong absorption as well as the Faraday rotation and the effects of finite resolution. These qualitative arguments are used to explain the major intensity irregularities which appear in these spectra.
Low‐Lying Pi—Sigma Transition in the Spectrum of Norbornadiene44(1966); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1727108View Description Hide Description
A vibrational analysis of the first electronic band of norbornadiene (NBD), with origin at 45 120 cm−1, shows that the band is electronically allowed, the accompanying vibrations being totally symmetric. This is contrary to earlier theoretical work which assigned the band as N→V 1, forbidden. A comparison with the spectra of cyclopentene and norbornene (NBE) suggests that the first band of norbornadiene is to be associated with the weak band of uncertain assignment found at approximately 45 000–50 000 cm−1 in all olefinic substances.
Gross changes in the vibrational spacing and shape of the vibronic envelope are observed on freezing the NBD and NBE molecules in low‐temperature matrices. The spectral changes appear to be due to modifications of the upper‐state potential surfaces as a consequence of the rigidity of the matrix.
There is some evidence in the NBD spectrum for weak vibronic coupling between the two halves of the diene molecule, and it is shown how the observed splitting pattern might be explained on such an assumption.

Alastair Cook can forget all his worries about nasty Shane Warne because Duncan Fletcher still loves him.
The former England coach took up the battle on Cook's behalf against all those who dare to question his current run of form or the fact he hasn't won a Test match for 10 months.
It was quite sweet actually.
Fletcher gave Cook his first Test cap in 2006, and his admiration for the 20-year-old century maker has only grown since.
Intelligence, stubbornness and determination. These were the qualities that Fletcher saw in Cook and he expects to see them used against his Indian team this summer.
"There were two things that struck me about Alastair," said the 65-year-old. "Firstly, I thought he was a very intelligent cricketer who understood the game.
"I remember talking in one of the very first team meetings he came to, he'd just been flown across from the West Indies, and for a young player we asked about someone and he confidently stood up and said 'this player does this and this player does that'.
"There are very few players who are prepared to commit to something like that at such an early stage in the England squad.
"The next thing was that I think he's a very determined individual.
"He's very, very determined which I think most opening bats have to be."
And Fletcher believes England must keep faith with Cook in the same way Australia did with Mark Taylor who struggled during 1997.
"I remember Mark Taylor," added Fletcher. "How long did he not get a run for? Australia kept him on as captain.
"He went through a big period where he didn't get any - and they kept him. It's as simple as that."
Fletcher conveniently leaves out the major difference which was that Australia kept winning while Taylor was captain and struggling for runs, but that doesn't fit his view of the world.
Sat next to MS Dhoni ahead of India's first 15-a-side 'match' with Leicestershire, Fletcher was as prickly as he was seven years ago following the Ashes 5-0 whitewash and World Cup flop.
Perhaps it was the knowledge that he has failed to succeed in a Test series against England in two attempts, or maybe it was just the sight of some old friends that got him excited.
Either way he was keen to stress that winning against his old employers at the third time of asking wouldn't be any more special despite the huge impact he had on English cricket and his British passport.
For Dhoni, a win of any kind would be special since India have not won a Test match away from home for three years.
And as the captain of the most cricket mad country in the world, he understands better than most just what of pressure Cook will be under.
Dhoni said: "A bad phase is something that everybody goes through. You just need to back players at the right point.
"That is the toughest period in cricket - when the team is not doing well and people start questioning their own ability .
"That's a phase that most captains have to go through.
"What really works is keeping it simple."
Could any of these replace Cook?
IAN BELL - The current vice-captain (left) in all but name, Bell is a classy batsman with a good understanding of the game, but simply not a leader.
JOE ROOT - Already anointed as an England captain in waiting, but his youth and inexperience count against him while he tries to establish himself in the team.
MATT PRIOR - England's wicket-keeper is facing a challenge from Jos Buttler and has injury concerns with his Achilles. A natural lieutenant, not the main man.
JAMES ANDERSON - Understands the game especially field placings and how to get batsmen out, but is a hot-head on the field and too introverted off it.
STUART BROAD - Has tasted captaincy in the shorter formats with limited success and is injury prone, but is a good communicator and knows the game inside out.
EOIN MORGAN - As a one day captain he has shown he has a good feel for the job, but the big problem is how to get into the side first.
ANDREW GALE - Inspirational leader at Yorkshire, who could lead them to the title, but his batting is short of international standard.

Skip to comments.Levi Johnston Sports a Fig Leaf
Posted on 11/17/2009 5:15:29 AM PST by chickadee
While his almost-mother-in-law Sarah Palin hits the publicity trail this week for her autobiography Going Rogue, Levi Johnston will not be getting the exposure that originally had been promised.
Contrary to earlier teases that the 19-year would leave nothing to the imagination in his Playgirl photo shoot, "He did not give 'full frontal' as his manager Tank [Jones] reported he would," Daniel Nardicio, a spokesman for Playgirl, tells New York's Daily News. The pictorial spread was shot last week. NBC News reports that publication, originally set for December, has been pushed up to this coming Saturday, Nov. 21.
(Excerpt) Read more at people.com ...
Having said that - the left continues its downward slide into the muck by using this kid in such a cynical way. The left's frenzy to "get" Sarah Palin at any cost is mind boggling.
Didn't measure up?
lol - too desperate for attention.
I'm guessing he is an attention whore.
It really doesn't matter anyway, since the vast majority of Playgirl readers are gay men.
A million gay men are deeply diasapointed.
Gee, they pushed up the publication to coincide with Sarahs book tour.
My guess is when he stood at 'attention', nobody noticed.
The kid looks like he is on roids...his face is a bit chubby/sort of blown up. May I ask that there be NO...I repeat NO links on FR with this idiots nude pixs?...would that be too much to ask?
Oh, dear, I hadn't considered the personal tragedy of the disappointed gay porn consumers.
It was more likely a fern leaf, anyway.
There is something seriously wrong with Levi, he obviously needs a neurological workup.
Oh, THANK YOU, Digger dear - one person gets it. [hug]
Maybe it occurred to him or his publishers that a million gays and a few thousand beefcake loving girls will point and say "that is the item he could not keep in his pants."
Looks like he learned everything he needed to know about parenting from his mother.
"Objects in mirror may be smaller than they appear"
I heard it was a thyme leaf.
Undeniable proof that the lefties are scared to death of Sarah Palin.....
The kid already has a fig leaf for a brain! A second would be redundant.
I thin the word is Himbo
"he obviously needs a neurological workup."
Calling Dr Pelosi!
He's a "mimbo".
Poor lad must have "Bill Maher Disease"
(Hung like a light switch)
"I thin the word is Himbo"
Oooh, you are good. What a fine word.
Too much TENEE WENEE!
Isn't his 15 minute of fame about done?
Too bad this kid doesn't have the sense God gave a gnat.
or, as the gay guys at Hillbuzz put it:
She probably didn't know the better about size.
Is it really a leaf or does it just look like one?
If he's not doing the Full Monty... then that does it for me, I'm NOT going to buy the magazine....
No it's not... because there's NO END to that pri*k...
I heard he only required a shamrock.
Hey Levi! Get your clothes on. No one wants to see your naked body and laugh!
Oh, my, Levi's target audience seems distinctly unimpressed.
Levi's "fame" will never be done as long as Sarah Palin draws breath and as long as some feeble old hack in the Beltway media can tap on a keyboard.
i almost feel sorry for this kid. he is too dumb too know he is being used by the hollywood vultures. they only do it because of palin. when they decide he is not embarrassing the palin family enough, they will drop him. what on earth will happen to the boy then? he has no clue where this will lead him and how it will affect his child.
He will find that photo spread to be a real asset in his custody suit... < /s >
Just like Ronald Reagan, Jr. Perhaps, Levi could join Ronnie as a co-announcer of the Westminster Dog Show.
I have just one question to ask that piece of garbage (Levi Johnson).
Are you making your child support payments???
