Main main index Narrative
"Isaac Clarke is basically the character who does everything we keep yelling at people in horror films to do. He has a suit of armor that he never takes off, he uses convenient high-powered cutting tools to carve his initials into slime monsters, and he never speaks, because he knows his dialogue would have to come from the same God-awful script that all the other sods are using."
Why should the Evil Overlord have all the Genre Savvy knowledge? Anyone can know what to do, depending on what kind of fiction they are in, and what kind of character they are.
Read these lists, and you'll be Dangerously Genre Savvy, or close enough. Fail to read them, and your Genre Blindness will condemn you to pick up any Idiot Ball you see, perhaps even become Too Dumb to Live. Just make sure you read the right list. As a note, any one of these might count just as well for another kind of story (for example, Caveat Emptor when entering The Little Shop That Wasn't There Yesterday is a given in both a transformation comic and a horror story) but it's your choice how much of each genre you decide to be savvy about in any given moment.
Note that developing one's character further, whether good or evil, is always beneficial. No matter what genre you're in, it makes you popular among the fanbase, and may even make the story more popular- which is, again, always good. Done properly, it may even induce characters of the opposite side to assist you.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful: very good very satisfied - Apr 19, 2013 Player: Jaren (page, az) i ordered two of these goals and have had them for a few weeks. These goals are light and durable just as they claim. well worth the money. |
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful: Very good product - Mar 15, 2013 Player: Loco (SF CA USA) I have been using this goal for about 3 or more month now, it's very durable, very easy to assemble. I'm very happy and about to purchase another one. |
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Fantastic Product! - Jan 31, 2013 Coach: IX Mendoza (Highland FC, Tucson, Az.) These goal are plain genius! Simple, sturdy, and much better than Puggs. I'm replacing all the goals for our club, Highland FC, in Tucson, with Sklz goals. I also bought the 12x6 and the 8x6...very very happy with all!!! |
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Pop-up Goals - Jul 16, 2012 Coach: RKSelby (Atoka, Tennessee) These goals are great! They do take onger than the regular pugg goals but are easier once you get the hang of it. They do not come in pairs so to play small sided games you will need to purchase two. They do pack up easy though. |

The Hebrew people are descendants of the patriarch Abraham (1900 B.C.E.) who formed a special relationship--the Covenant with God. God promised Abraham he and his descendents would be the chosen people and in return Abraham agreed to be faithful to God's Law. Thus the faith of Judaism was born in agreement between the Lord and Abraham. The faith has trancended centuries and still holds firm in a few basic beliefs:
The primary emphasis of Judaism is on a detailed code of conduct. It is believed Judaism fully lived leads to a life of good deeds. A Jew's first duty is to live according to God's Law. The core of this Law lay in the Ten Commandments.
Further detail of the Law as well as the early history of the Jewish people lay in the the Torah. The Torah is the first five books of the Hebrew Bible and is also called the Five Books of Moses because they were revealed to Moses on Mount Sinai. This initial section of the Hebrew Bible was reinforced by the prophets, whose great era came in the 8th and 7th centuries B.C.E. The prophets reminded the people of the Creator's love and the importance of the Law.
Orthodox Judaism refers to the historic Jewish faith that sets its base in the traditional customs of the religion. It is a way of life that is expressed by practices, one that insists that tradition reflects God's will and is not subject to debate or revision. Thus, the Orthodox Jew does not recognize the possibility of accommodation to social change.
Reform Judaism arose in the early 19th century in order to modernize the faith. The Reform attempts to retain the essential elements of Judaism. It embraces the broad moral messages of the Jewish tradition and balances the fundamental truths with modern viewpoints. Reform Jews do not adhere to the daily rituals of the other sects of Judaism.
Conservative Judaism came about through dissatisfaction with both Orthodox and Reform Judaism. It still holds a strong sense of tradition but allows accomodation to social realities. Conservtive Jews attempt to observe the traditions of the faith as fully as possible.

Meiotic Recombination Remote from Prominent DNA Break Sites in S. pombe Molecular Cell, Volume 9, Issue 2, 1 February 2002, Pages 253-263 Jennifer A. Young, Randall W. Schreckhise, Walter W. Steiner and Gerald R. Smith Summary DNA breakage is intimately associated with meiotic recombination in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Sites of prominent DNA breakage were found ∼25 to ∼200 kb apart in the genomic regions surveyed. We examined in detail a 501 kb region of chromosome I and found six sites, or tight clusters of sites, at which ∼2%–11% of the DNA accumulated breaks in a rad50S mutant. In contrast to the discrete, widely spaced distribution of prominent break sites, recombination in this region was more uniformly distributed (0.7–1.6 cM/10 kb) whether the genetic interval tested contained no, one, or more such sites. We infer that although recombination depends upon DNA breakage, recombination often occurs remote from these sites (tens of kilobases away); we discuss mechanisms by which this may occur.

An AT-Rich Sequence in Human Common Fragile Site FRA16D Causes Fork Stalling and Chromosome Breakage in S. cerevisiae Molecular Cell, Volume 27, Issue 3, 3 August 2007, Pages 367-379 Haihua Zhang and Catherine H. Freudenreich Summary Common fragile sites are regions of human chromosomes prone to breakage. Fragile site FRA16D spans the WWOX/FOR tumor suppressor gene and has been linked to cancer-causing deletions and translocations. Using a genetic assay in yeast, we found that a short AT-rich region (Flex1) within FRA16D increases chromosome fragility, whereas three other sequences within FRA16D do not. To our knowledge, this is the first identification of a sequence element within a common fragile site that increases chromosome fragility. The fragility of Flex1 was exacerbated by the absence of Rad52 or the presence of hydroxyurea. Flex1 contains a polymorphic AT repeat predicted to form a DNA structure, and two-dimensional gel analysis showed accumulation of stalled replication forks at the Flex1 sequence that was dependent on AT length. Our data suggest that the FRA16D Flex1 sequence causes increased chromosome breakage by forming secondary structures that stall replication fork progression. Summary | Full Text | PDF (1213 kb) |
ATR Prohibits Replication Catastrophe by Preventing Global Exhaustion of RPA Cell, Volume 155, Issue 5, 21 November 2013, Pages 1088-1103 Luis Ignacio Toledo, Matthias Altmeyer, Maj-Britt Rask, Claudia Lukas, Dorthe Helena Larsen, Lou Klitgaard Povlsen, Simon Bekker-Jensen, Niels Mailand, Jiri Bartek and Jiri Lukas Summary ATR, activated by replication stress, protects replication forks locally and suppresses origin firing globally. Here, we show that these functions of ATR are mechanistically coupled. Although initially stable, stalled forks in ATR-deficient cells undergo nucleus-wide breakage after unscheduled origin firing generates an excess of single-stranded DNA that exhausts the nuclear pool of RPA. Partial reduction of RPA accelerated fork breakage, and forced elevation of RPA was sufficient to delay such "replication catastrophe" even in the absence of ATR activity. Conversely, unscheduled origin firing induced breakage of stalled forks even in cells with active ATR. Thus, ATR-mediated suppression of dormant origins shields active forks against irreversible breakage via preventing exhaustion of nuclear RPA. This study elucidates how replicating genomes avoid destabilizing DNA damage. Because cancer cells commonly feature intrinsically high replication stress, this study also provides a molecular rationale for their hypersensitivity to ATR inhibitors.

Research Article
R.A. Deering, W.D. Taylor and L.R. Burns
Neutral sucrose gradients of supercoiled DNA (phiX-174 RF I) were used to measure the in vitro production of strand breaks by the carcinogen, N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (AcO-AAF). Treatment with AcO-AAF in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide did not directly yield strand breaks. Breaks in relatively low yield appeared after alkali treatment (pH 13, 60 min) of the RF I previously reacted with AcO-AAF. The DNA treated with AcO-AAF was sensitive to single-strand breakage by 303 nm near-ultraviolet light under neutral conditions. The greater the prior AcO-AAF treatment, the greater the sensitivity to 303 nm light. Post-irradiation alkali treatment greatly enhanced the light-induced strand breakage.

USDOT Unveils New Distracted Driving PSAs Featuring Cast of FOX TV Show "Glee"
Videos Starring Dianna Agron Encourage Young Drivers to "Stop the Texts. Stop the Wrecks."
The PSA release coincides with today's NHTSA announcement of a new grant program that will provide up to $17.5 million to states that have laws banning distracted driving in fiscal year (FY) 2013. Authorized by Congress under the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), a state must have a comprehensive, primary law against distracted driving or a primary law prohibiting texting while driving in order to qualify for the grants. States with secondary laws, which require law enforcement to observe a primary offense prior to enforcing the distraction law, would not be eligible. Under MAP-21, Congress also authorized an additional $5 million for NHTSA to develop paid advertising to support state enforcement of laws against distracted driving.
In June, USDOT released a "Blueprint for Ending Distracted Driving" that offers a comprehensive strategy to address the growing and dangerous practice of using handheld cell phones behind the wheel. The plan, which outlines concrete steps stakeholders around the country can take to reduce the risk posed by distracted driving, builds on the national momentum that Secretary LaHood and USDOT have spearheaded for the last three years.
To learn more about USDOT's efforts to stop distracted driving, please visit www.Distraction.gov. For more information on the "Stop the Texts. Stop the Wrecks." campaign, please visit www.StopTextsStopWrecks.org.

Read the Federal Circuit's decision [PDF 171 KB] which includes a dissenting opinion.
The imported boots (consisting of a knit upper portion and a rubber sole, with no laces, buckets, or other fasteners) were liquidated by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) under subheading 19.35 (footwear with soles of rubber as well as slip-on type footwear), subject to a duty rate of 37.5%.
The importer challenged that classification and asserted the appropriate classification was HTSUS subheading 6404.19.50 (a basket provision covering footwear with outer soles of rubber and uppers of textile materials) subject to a duty rate of 9%.
The trade court granted the government's motion for summary judgment, relying in part on a Customs publication "Footwear Definitions" designed to assist importers understand footwear classification requirements.
The Federal Circuit majority opinion today affirmed the trade court, finding that the statutory language, definition of "slip-on" in the "Footwear Definitions," and common and commercial understanding of the term "slip-on" all support the trade court's conclusions.
The dissenting opinion found that the common and commercial meaning of the term "footwear of the slip-on type, that is held to the foot without the use of laces or buckles or other fasteners" excludes boots that rise above the ankle and that are not easy to slip on.

Gavin Rossdale lending handsome mug to 'Burn Notice'
The 45-year-old Bush lead singer may not boast a heavy acting resume (a "Criminal Minds" cameo and a few supporting film roles), but this summer he'll get a nice platform to showcase his other side.
EW reports Rossdale has booked a guest appearance in episode 8 of the upcoming fifth season of "Burn Notice."
The USA show is bringing on Rossdale as Armand, a wealthy criminal who enlists Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar) in a heist when she goes to him for a favor.
If its not too late... might we suggest a musical heist?
Yes, once the music career fizzles, it's time to try acting. Look for Rihanna and Gaga to follow Timberlake soon.
And who cares dude? The guy isn't allowed to get paid without jack -offs like you making some snide, idiot remark? At least he's doing it on the best show on television. This to me is great news, brings viewers in so my show doesn't get cancelled

Andy Costner says his father, Mark, and his mother, Jenifer, are the inspiration for his Eagle Scout project, a healing garden at Community Regional Cancer Center-North. While Andy's father was treated for lymphoma at Community last year, Jenifer would spend a lot of time in the waiting room during her husband's eight-hour chemotherapy treatments. Andy saw how his father's illness affected his mother and realized he could brighten the days of other families who wait while their loved ones receive treatment, by creating a cheerful outdoor space.
"I thought the whole experience would be a little less grueling if she had a peaceful area to wait for my dad," said Andy.
Members of Boy Scout Troop 101 of Noblesville joined the Costner family, nurses from the cancer center, and local sponsors to install the healing garden just in time for Mother's Day. Volunteers completed work on the garden in one day. The finished project includes a fountain, birdfeeders, benches and landscaping.
The garden, originally intended as a space for visitors to the center, will also benefit patients. Patients receiving treatment indoors will have a view of the garden from their private rooms. Other patients who are accompanied by a friend or family member will have the chance to receive their treatment outdoors, thanks to an extra-wide concrete path leading to the garden that accommodates medical equipment.
"Many of our patients receive four to eight hours of treatment and have few diversions to occupy them while they are here," said Lorrie Ramsey, R.N., clinical director at Community Regional Cancer Center-North. "The garden will give them an opportunity to enjoy the view, watch the birds if they are able, take a short stroll and enjoy the outdoors. I believe it will really enhance their experience in a positive way."
Andy spent a significant amount of time coordinating this effort by partnering with Community Health Network and local businesses, which generously donated materials and volunteers for the healing garden project. The project brings Andy one step closer to becoming an Eagle Scout, but it also has special meaning for him personally. "I'll become a better leader and be able to say I've accomplished something that means a lot to me," said Andy of his efforts. "And it will be a little more comfortable around the cancer center."

In this groundbreaking book, Adrian Bejan takes the recurring patterns in nature—trees, tributaries, air passages, neural networks, and lightning bolts—and reveals how a single principle of physics, the Constructal Law, accounts for the evolution of these and all other designs in our world.
Everything—from biological life to inanimate systems—generates shape and structure and evolves in a sequence of ever-improving designs in order to facilitate flow. River basins, cardiovascular systems, and bolts of lightning are very efficient flow systems to move a current—of water, blood, or electricity. Likewise, the more complex architecture of animals evolve to cover greater distance per unit of useful energy, or increase their flow across the land. Such designs also appear in human organizations, like the hierarchical "flowcharts" or reporting structures in corporations and political bodies.
All are governed by the same principle, known as the Constructal Law, and configure and reconfigure themselves over time to flow more efficiently. Written in an easy style that achieves clarity without sacrificing complexity, Design in Nature is a paradigm-shifting book that will fundamentally transform our understanding of the world around us.

The order parameter of the Bose glass
S. J. Thomson and F. Krüger,
submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett.,
We investigate the nature of the Bose glass phase of the disordered Bose-Hubbard model and demonstrate the existence of a glass-like
replica symmetry breaking (RSB) order parameter in terms of particle number fluctuations. Starting from a strong-coupling expansion
around the atomic limit, we study the instability of the Mott insulator towards the formation of a Bose glass. We add some infinitesimal
RSB, following the Parisi hierarchical approach in the most general form, and observe its flow under the momentum-shell renormalization
group scheme. We find a new fixed point with one-step RSB, corresponding to the transition between the Mott insulator and a Bose-glass
phase with hitherto unseen RSB. This finding is consistent with the expectation of glassy behavior and previous results showing the
breakdown of self-averaging. We discuss the possibility of measuring the glass-like order parameter in optical lattice experiments.
Resummation of fluctuations near ferromagnetic quantum critical points
C. J. Pedder, F. Krüger, and A. G. Green,
Phys. Rev. B
, 165109 (2013)
We present a detailed analysis of the non-analytic structure of the free energy for the itinerant ferromagnet near the quantum
critical point in two and three dimensions. We analyze a model of electrons with an isotropic dispersion interacting through a contact
repulsion. A fermionic version of the quantum order-by-disorder mechanism allows us to calculate the free energy as a functional of
the dispersion in the presence of homogeneous and spiralling magnetic order. We re-sum the leading divergent contributions, to derive
an algebraic expression for the non-analytic contribution to free energy from quantum fluctuations. Using a recursion which relates
sub-leading divergences to the leading term, we calculate the full T=0 contribution in d=3. We propose an interpolating functional form,
which allows us to track phase transition lines at temperatures far below the tricritical point and down to T=0. In d=2, quantum
fluctuations are stronger and non-analyticities more severe. Using a similar re-summation approach, we find that despite the different
non-analytic structures, the phase diagrams in two and three dimensions are remarkably similar, exhibiting an incommensurate spiral
phase near to the avoided quantum critical point.
Breakdown of self-averaging in the Bose glass
A. Hegg, F. Krüger, and P. Phillips,
Phys. Rev. B
, 134206 (2013)
We study the square-lattice Bose-Hubbard model with bounded random on-site energies at zero temperature. Starting from a dual
representation obtained from a strong-coupling expansion around the atomic limit, we employ a real-space block decimation scheme.
This approach is non-perturbative in the disorder and enables us to study the renormalization-group flow of the induced random-mass
distribution. In both insulating phases, the Mott insulator and the Bose glass, the average mass diverges signaling short range
superfluid correlations. The relative variance of the mass distribution distinguishes the two phases, renormalizing to zero in the Mott
insulator and diverging in the Bose glass. Negative mass values in the tail of the distribution signal the presence of rare superfluid
regions in the Bose glass. The breakdown of self-averaging is evidenced by the divergent relative variance and increasingly
non-Gaussian distributions. We determine an explicit phase boundary between the Mott insulator and Bose glass.
Helical glasses near ferromagnetic quantum criticality
S. J. Thomson, F. Krüger, and A. G. Green,
Phys. Rev. B
, 224203 (2013)
We study the effects of quenched charge disorder on the phase reconstruction near itinerant ferromagnetic quantum critical points in
three spatial dimensions. Combining a replica disorder average with a fermionic version of the quantum-order-by disorder mechanism,
we show that weak disorder destabilizes the ferromagnetic state and enhances the susceptibility towards incommensurate, spiral
magnetic ordering. The Goldstone modes of the spiral phase are governed by a 3d-XY model. The induced disorder in the pitch of the
spiral generates a random anisotropy for the Goldstone modes, inducing vortex lines in the phase of the helical order and rendering
the magnetic correlations short ranged with a strongly anisotropic correlation length.
Disordered driven coupled cavity arrays: Non-equilibrium stochastic mean-field theory
G. Kulaitis, F. Krüger, F. Nissen, and J. Keeling,
Phys. Rev. A
, 013840 (2013)
We study the interplay of disorder with pumping and decay in coupled qubit-cavity arrays, the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model. We
find that relatively weak disorder can wash out the bistability present in the clean pumped system, and that moreover, the combination
of disorder in on-site energies and decay can lead to effective phase disorder. To explore these questions, we present a non-equilibrium
generalisation of Stochastic-Mean-Field theory, providing a simple tool to address such questions. This technique is developed for
rather general forms of light-matter coupling, driving, dissipation, and on-site disorder, making it applicable to a wide range of systems.
Quantum order-by-disorder driven phase reconstruction in the vicinity of ferromagnetic quantum critical points
U. Karahasanovic, F. Krüger, and A. G. Green,
Phys. Rev. B
, 165111 (2012)
The formation of new phases close to itinerant electron quantum critical points has been observed experimentally in many
compounds. We present a unified analytical model that explains the emergence of new types of order around itinerant ferromagnetic
quantum critical points. The central idea of our analysis is that certain Fermi-surface deformations associated with the onset
of the competing order enhance the phase-space available for low-energy quantum fluctuations and so self-consistently lower
the free energy. We demonstrate that this quantum order-by-disorder mechanism leads to instabilities towards the formation
of spiral and d-wave spin nematic phases close to itinerant ferromagnetic quantum critical points in three spatial dimensions.
Quantum order-by-disorder near criticality and the secret of partial order in MnSi
F. Krüger, U. Karahasanovic, and A. G. Green,
Phys. Rev. Lett.
, 067003 (2012)
The vicinity of quantum phase transitions has proven fertile ground in the search for new quantum phases. We propose a physically
motivated and unifying description of phase reconstruction near metallic quantum-critical points using the idea of quantum
order-by-disorder. Certain deformations of the Fermi surface associated with the onset of competing order enhance the phase
space available for low-energy, particle-hole fluctuations and self-consistently lower the free energy. Applying the notion of quantum
order-by-disorder to the itinerant helimagnet MnSi, we show that near to the quantum critical point, fluctuations lead to an increase
of the spiral ordering wave vector and a reorientation away from the lattice favored directions. The magnetic ordering pattern in this
fluctuation-driven phase is found to be in excellent agreement with the neutron scattering data in the partially ordered phase of MnSi.
Spin-wave excitations in the ferromagnetic-metallic and in the charge, orbital and spin ordered states in
Nd(1-x)Sr(x)MnO(3)$ with x~0.5
H. Ulbrich, F. Krüger, A. A. Nugroho, D. Lamago, Y. Sidis, M. Braden,
Phys. Rev. B
, 094453 (2011)
Inelastic neutron scattering experiments have been performed on single crystals of Nd(1-x)Sr(x)MnO(3) with x~0.5. Colossal
magnetoresistance (CMR) in the manganites arises from the interplay between a ferromagnetic metallic and antiferromagnetic charge
and orbital ordered insulating state. Therefore, it appears important to compare these phases concerning their underlying magnetic
interaction parameters. Our investigations of the spin-wave disperion in the AFM ordered state of Nd(0.5)Sr(0.5)MnO(3) exhibits a
strongly anisotropic stiffness. The sign of the anisotropy is characteristic for the site-centered model for charge and orbital ordering in
half-doped manganites. Within this model, linear spin-wave theory yields a perfect description of the experimental dispersion.
Furthermore, magnetic excitations in the ferromagnetic metallic state of Nd(1-x)Sr(x)MnO(3) with x=0.49 and x=0.50 exhibit
nearly the same magnon dispersion which can be described with a Heisenberg model including nearest-neighbor interactions.
Two distinct Mott-Insulator to Bose-glass transitions and breakdown of self averaging in the disordered
Bose-Hubbard model
F. Krüger, Seungmin Hong, and P. Phillips,
Phys. Rev. B
, 115118 (2011)
We investigate the instabilities of the Mott-insulating phase of the weakly disordered Bose-Hubbard model within a renormalization group
analysis of the replica field theory obtained by a strong-coupling expansion around the atomic limit. We identify a new order parameter
and associated correlation length scale that is capable of capturing the transition from a state with zero compressibility, the Mott insulator,
to one in which the compressibility is finite, the Bose glass. The order parameter is the relative variance of the disorder-induced mass
distribution. In the Mott insulator, the relative variance renormalizes to zero, whereas it diverges in the Bose glass. The divergence of
the relative variance signals the breakdown of self-averaging. The length scale governing the breakdown of self-averaging is the distance
between rare regions. This length scale is finite in the Bose glass but diverges at the transition to the Mott insulator with an exponent of
$\nu=1/D$ for incommensurate fillings. Likewise, the compressibility vanishes with an exponent of $\gamma=4/D-1$ at the transition. At
commensurate fillings, the transition is controlled by a different fixed point at which both the disorder and interaction vertices are relevant.
Orbital Ordering and Unfrustrated (pi,0) Magnetism from Degenerate Double Exchange in the Pnictides
Weicheng Lv, F. Krüger, and P. Phillips,
Phys. Rev. B
, 045125 (2010)
The magnetic excitations of the iron pnictides are explained within a degenerate double-exchange model. The local-moment spins are
coupled by superexchanges J1 and J2 between nearest and next-nearest neighbors, respectively, and interact with the itinerant electrons
of the degenerate d(xz) and d(yz) orbitals via a ferromagnetic Hund exchange. The latter stabilizes (pi,0) stripe antiferromagnetism due to
emergent ferro-orbital order and the resulting kinetic energy gain by hopping preferably along the ferromagnetic spin direction. Taking the
quantum nature of the spins into account, we calculate the magnetic excitation spectra in the presence of both, super- and double-
exchange. A dramatic increase of the spin-wave energies at the competing Néel ordering wave vector is found, in agreement with recent
neutron scattering data. The spectra are fitted to a spin-only model with a strong spatial anisotropy and additional longer ranged couplings
along the ferromagnetic chains. Over a realistic parameter range, the effective couplings along the chains are negative corresponding to
unfrustrated stripe antiferromagnetism.
Anomalous suppression of the Bose glass at commensurate fillings in the disordered Bose-Hubbard model
F. Krüger, Jiansheng Wu, and P. Phillips,
Phys. Rev. B
, 094526 (2009)
Virtual Journal of Atomic Quantum Fluids
, (4) (2009)
We study the weakly disordered Bose-Hubbard model on a cubic lattice through a one-loop renormalization group analysis of the
corresponding effective field theory which is explicitly derived by combining a strong-coupling expansion with a replica average over
the disorder. The method is applied not only to generic uncorrelated on-site disorder but also to simultaneous hopping disorder
correlated with the differences of adjacent disorder potentials. Such correlations are inherent in fine-grained optical speckle potentials
used as a source of disorder in optical lattice experiments. As a result of strong coupling, the strength of the replica mixing disorder
vertex, responsible for the emergence of a Bose glass, crucially depends on the chemical potential and the Hubbard repulsion and
vanishes to leading order in the disorder at commensurate boson fillings. As a consequence, at such fillings a direct transition
between the Mott-insulator and the superfluid in the presence of disorder cannot be excluded on the basis of a one-loop
calculation. At incommensurate fillings, at a certain length scale, the Mott insulator will eventually become unstable towards
the formation of a Bose glass. Phase diagrams as a function of the microscopic parameters are presented and the finite-size
crossover between the Mott-insulating state and the Bose glass is analyzed.
Phase diagram of the frustrated, spatially anisotropic S=1 antiferromagnet on a square lattice
H. C. Jiang, F. Krüger, J. E. Moore, D. N. Sheng, J. Zaanen, and Z. Y. Weng,
Phys. Rev. B
, 174409 (2009)
We study the S=1 square lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet with spatially anisotropic nearest neighbor couplings J1x, J1y
frustrated by a next-nearest neighbor coupling J2 numerically using the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method and
analytically employing the Schwinger-Boson mean-field theory (SBMFT). Up to relatively strong values of the anisotropy, within both
methods we find quantum fluctuations to stabilize the Neel ordered state above the classically stable region. Whereas SBMFT
suggests a fluctuation-induced first order transition between the Néel state and a stripe antiferromagnet for 1/3<J1x/J1y<1
and an intermediate paramagnetic region opening only for very strong anisotropy, the DMRG results clearly demonstrate that the two
magnetically ordered phases are separated by a quantum disordered region for all values of the anisotropy with the remarkable implication
that the quantum paramagnetic phase of the spatially isotropic J1-J2 model is continuously connected to the limit of decoupled
Haldane spin chains. Our findings indicate that for S=1 quantum fluctuations in strongly frustrated antiferromagnets are crucial and
not correctly treated on the semiclassical level.
Spin-orbital frustrations and anomalous metallic state in iron-pnictide superconductors
F. Krüger, S. Kumar, J. Zaanen, and J. van den Brink,
Phys. Rev. B
, 054504 (2009)
Virtual Journal of Applications of Superconductivity
, (4) (2009)
We develop an understanding of the anomalous metal state of the parent compounds of recently discovered iron based superconductors
starting from a strong coupling viewpoint, including orbital degrees of freedom. On the basis of an intermediate-spin (S=1) state for the
Fe(2+) ions, we derive a Kugel-Khomskii spin-orbital Hamiltonian for the active t(2g) orbitals. It turns out to be a highly complex
model with frustrated spin and orbital interactions. We compute its classical phase diagrams and provide an understanding for the stability
of the various phases by investigating its spin-only and orbital-only limits. The experimentally observed spin-stripe state is found to be
stable over a wide regime of physical parameters and can be accompanied by three different types of orbital orders. Of these the orbital-
ferro and orbital-stripe orders are particularly interesting since they break the in-plane lattice symmetry --a robust feature of the undoped
compounds. We compute the magnetic excitation spectra for the effective spin Hamiltonian, observing a strong reduction of the ordered
moment, and point out that the proposed orbital ordering pattern can be measured in resonant X-ray diffraction.
Fermionic quantum criticality and the fractal nodal surface
F. Krüger and J. Zaanen,
Phys. Rev. B
, 035104 (2008)
The complete lack of theoretical understanding of the quantum critical states found in the heavy fermion metals and the normal states
of the high-Tc superconductors is routed in deep fundamental problem of condensed matter physics: the infamous minus signs
associated with Fermi-Dirac statistics render the path integral non-probabilistic and do not allow to establish a connection with critical
phenomena in classical systems. Using Ceperley's constrained path-integral formalism we demonstrate that the workings of scale
invariance and Fermi-Dirac statistics can be reconciled. The latter is self-consistently translated into a geometrical constraint structure.
We prove that this "nodal hypersurface" encodes the scales of the Fermi liquid and turns fractal when the system becomes quantum
critical. To illustrate this we calculate nodal surfaces and electron momentum distributions of Feynman backflow wave functions and indeed
find that with increasing backflow strength the quasiparticle mass gradually increases, to diverge when the nodal structure becomes fractal.
Such a collapse of a Fermi liquid at a critical point has been observed in the heavy-fermion intermetallics in a spectacular fashion.
Triggered by our paper, the visualization of nodal surfaces of backflow
wavefunctions has been implemented as a

Pacifying the Fermi-liquid: battling the devious fermion signs
J. Zaanen, F. Krüger, J.-H. She, D. Sadri, S. I. Mukhin,
Iranian Journal of Physics Research, Vol.
, No. 2, 39 (2008)
The fermion sign problem is studied in the path integral formalism. The standard picture of Fermi liquids is first critically analyzed, pointing
out some of its rather peculiar properties. The insightful work of Ceperley in constructing fermionic path integrals in terms of constrained
worldlines is then reviewed. In this representation, the minus signs associated with Fermi-Dirac statistics are self consistently translated
into a geometrical constraint structure (the nodal hypersurface) acting on an effective bosonic dynamics. As an illustrative example we use
this formalism to study 1+1-dimensional systems, where statistics are irrelevant, and hence the sign problem can be circumvented. In this
low-dimensional example, the structure of the nodal constraints leads to a lucid picture of the entropic interaction essential to one-
dimensional physics. Working with the path integral in momentum space, we then show that the Fermi gas can be understood by analogy
to a Mott insulator in a harmonic trap. Going back to real space, we discuss the topological properties of the nodal cells, and suggest
a new holographic conjecture relating Fermi liquids in higher dimensions to soft-core bosons in one dimension. We also discuss some
possible connections between mixed Bose/Fermi systems and supersymmetry.
Magnetic fluctuations in n-type high-Tc superconductors reveal breakdown of fermiology: Experiments and Fermi-liquid/
RPA calculations

By combining experimental measurements of the quasiparticle and dynamical magnetic properties of optimally electron-doped
Pr(0.88)LaCe(0.12)CuO4 with theoretical calculations we demonstrate that the conventional fermiology approach cannot possibly account
for the magnetic fluctuations in these materials. In particular, we perform tunneling experiments on the very same sample for which a
dynamical magnetic resonance has been reported recently and use photoemission data by others on a similar sample to characterize the
fermionic quasi-particle excitations in great detail. We subsequently use this information to calculate the magnetic response within the
conventional fermiology framework as applied in a large body of work for the hole-doped superconductors to find a profound disagreement
between the theoretical expectations and the measurements: this approach predicts a step-like feature rather than a sharp resonance
peak, it underestimates the intensity of the resonance by an order of magnitude, it suggests an unreasonable temperature dependence
of the resonance, and most severely, it predicts that most of the spectral weight resides in incommensurate wings which are a key
feature of the hole-doped cuprates but have never been observed in the electron-doped counterparts. Our findings strongly suggest that
the magnetic fluctuations reflect the quantum-mechanical competition between antiferromagnetic and superconducting orders.
Is deconfined quantum criticality in frustrated antiferromagnets ruled out by generic fluctuation induced

Frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnets: fluctuation induced first order vs deconfined quantum criticality
F. Krüger and S. Scheidl,
Europhys. Lett.
, 896 (2006)
Recently it was argued that quantum phase transitions can be radically different from classical phase transitions with as a highlight the
'deconfined critical points' exhibiting fractionalization of quantum numbers due to Berry phase effects. Such transitions are supposed to
occur in frustrated ('J1-J2') quantum magnets. We have developed a novel renormalization approach for such systems which is
fully respecting the underlying lattice structure. According to our findings, another profound phenomenon is around the corner:
a fluctuation induced (order-out-of-disorder) first order transition. This has to occur for large spin and we conjecture that it is responsible
for the weakly first order behavior recently observed in numerical simulations for frustrated S=1/2 systems.
Spin-wave dispersion in orbitally ordered La$_{1/2}$Sr$_{3/2}$MnO$_4$
D. Senff, F. Krüger, S. Scheidl, M. Benomar, Y. Sidis, S. Demmel, and M. Braden,
Phys. Rev. Lett.
, 257201 (2006)
The magnon dispersion in the charge, orbital and spin ordered phase in La(1/2)Sr(3/2)MnO4 has been studied by means of
inelastic neutron scattering. We find an excellent agreement with a magnetic interaction model basing on the CE-type superstructure.
The magnetic excitations are dominated by ferromagnetic exchange parameters revealing a nearly-one dimensional character at high
energies. The nearest neighbor ferromagnetic interaction in La(1/2)Sr(3/2)MnO4 is significantly larger than the one in the
metallic ferromagnetically ordered manganites. The large ferromagneticinteraction in the charge/orbital ordered phase appears to be
essential for the capability of manganites to switch between metallic and insulating phases.
The spin excitation spectrum in striped bilayer compounds

, (5) (2004)
The spin dynamics of bilayer cuprate compounds are studied in a basic model. The magnetic spectral properties are calculated in linear
spin-wave theory for several stripe configurations which differ by the relative location of the stripes in the layers. We focus on the bilayer
splitting of the magnon bands near the incommensurate low energy peaks as well as near the pi resonance, distinguishing between the
odd and even channel. We find that a x-shaped dispersion near the pi resonance is generic for stripes. By comparison of our results to
neutron scattering data for YBa(2)Cu(3)O(6+x) we conclude that the stripe model is consistent with characteristic features of
bilayer high-Tc compounds.
Spin dynamics of stripes
F. Krüger and S. Scheidl,
Phys. Rev. B.
, 134512 (2003)
The spin dynamics of stripes in high-temperature superconductors and related compounds is studied in the framework of a spin-wave
theory for a simple spin-only model. The magnon dispersion relation and the magnetic structure factor are calculated for diagonal and
vertical stripes. Acoustical as well as optical bands are included in the analysis. The incommensurability and the pi resonance
appear as complementary features of the band structure at different energy scales. The dependence of spin-wave velocities and
resonance frequencies on the stripe spacing and coupling is calculated. At low doping, the resonance frequency is found to scale
roughly inversely proportional to the stripe spacing. The favorable comparison of the results with experimental data suggests
that the spin-only model provides a suitable and simple basis for calculating and understanding the spin dynamics of stripes.

Non-universal ordering of spin and charge in stripe phases
F. Krüger and S. Scheidl,
Phys. Rev. Lett.
, 095701 (2002)
We study the interplay of topological excitations in stripe phases: charge dislocations, charge loops, and spin vortices. In two dimensions
these defects interact logarithmically on large distances. Using a renormalization-group analysis in the Coulomb gas representation of
these defects, we calculate the phase diagram and the critical properties of the transitions. Depending on the interaction parameters,
spin and charge order can disappear at a single transition or in a sequence of two transitions (spin-charge separation). These transitions
are non-universal with continuously varying critical exponents. We also determine the nature of the points where three phases coexist.
Bond-disordered spin systems: Theory and application to doped high-$T_\textrm{c}$ compounds
F. Krüger and S. Scheidl,
Phys. Rev. B
, 224502 (2002).
We examine the stability of magnetic order in a classical Heisenberg model with quenched random exchange couplings. This system
represents the spin degrees of freedom in high-Tc compounds with immobile dopants. Starting from a replica representation
of the nonlinear sigma model, we perform a renormalization-group analysis. The importance of cumulants of the disorder distribution
to arbitrarily high orders necessitates a functional renormalization scheme. From the renormalization flow equations we determine the
magnetic correlation length numerically as a function of the impurity concentration and of temperature. From our analysis follows that
two-dimensional layers can be magnetically ordered for arbitrarily strong but sufficiently diluted defects. We further consider the
dimensional crossover in a stack of weakly coupled layers. The resulting phase diagram is compared with experimental data for

NASHVILLE — The state will move its operations and employees housed in the Donnelley J. Hill State Office Building in Downtown Memphis a few blocks south into the One Commerce Square Building at 40 South Main next April 1.
The State Building Commission on Friday approved a 15-year lease for 104,673 square feet of rentable space on part of One Commerce Square's third floor and all of floors 2 and 4 through 10, according to the lease. The annual rent starts at $1,322,805 next year with annual increases rising to $2,130,095 in year 15, for a total of $29,301,898, or an average annual rent of $1,921,436, or $18.36 per square foot. Those rates do not include electric, gas, water and wastewater utilities, according to the lease document.
The state will close the Donnelley J. Hill State Office Building on Civic Center Plaza after the move of 480 state employees about six blocks south into One Commerce Square, which opened in 1972 as the home of National Bank of Commerce. State officials haven't decided what to do with the 14-story Hill Building, which opened in 1968 and contains 121,505 feet of rentable space.
Peter Heimbach of the state Department of General Services said it's possible that some of the state employees who work in the Hill Building will be moved to offices in Shelby County into locations where their departments and agencies already have offices.
Under the terms of a lease negotiated with the building's landlords, Memphis Commerce Square Partners LLC, the state can only break the lease for cause or for loss or lack of funding. It cannot break the lease "for convenience" until year 10 and would pay substantial penalties.
The move from a state-owned building into leased space is part of a much larger statewide privatization initiative of Gov. Bill Haslam's administration. The Chicago-based professional services giant Jones Lang LaSalle won a state contract last year, which was expanded this year, to manage much of state government's real estate portfolio outside of parks, prisons and higher education. Three similar leases were approved Friday for moving state workers out of state-owned buildings in Nashville and Chattanooga.
JLL's commission on the Memphis lease is $953,519 but $148,204 of that will be rebated to the state, according to the Department of General Services. Its commission on the four leases approved Friday averages 72 cents per square foot, Heimbach told the Building Commission.
The lease includes 500 parking spaces, he said.

NEWBURGH — A raging fire destroyed a Newburgh home and killed two dogs Sunday morning, the Newburgh Fire Department said.
The fire at 5166 Woodridge Dr. was so large, Assistant Fire Chief Chad Bennett said, that it melted the window bars of an adjacent house, required man power from four other fire departments and took about two hours to control.
"It was a very, very hot fire," said Bennett.
Fire trucks responded after a neighbor reported it about 10:58 a.m.
Bennett said the man who reported it saw the garage door open on its own and a large fire bulged out.
Homeowners Frank and Pam Welch were not home at the time. Frank Welch said they had just gotten out of church when they received a call from a neighbor that their home was on fire.
By the time they got home, Welch said the house was engulfed.
While seeing the home razed by fire was difficult for the family, it was the death of their two dogs, a springer spaniel named Levi and a blue coonhound named Gladis, that was really upsetting, Frank said.
"(The fire) could've been worse," Frank said. "I hate to lose them. They were special."
The family had rescued Gladis about 10 years ago, and had Levi for about three.
Welch said he appreciates the firefighters' attempts to rescue the dogs, whose deaths were caused by smoke inhalation.
When the first units responded, the residence was a total loss, Bennett said, so firefighters redirected their efforts.
"We knew we couldn't save the residence," said Bennett "So we moved to protect the exposure to the neighboring house."
Heat from the main fire damaged the entire side of the wooden residence at 5144 Woodridge Dr.
Additionally, embers spread to the attic of this residence, and it took about 30 minutes to control the spread, Bennett said.
Bennett estimated the damage at 5144 Woodridge to be in the thousands of dollars.
After handling the exposure, firefighters moved to contain the main fire.
Fire engines from Ohio and Knight townships and Yankeetown and Chandler assisted in the fight, Bennett said.
The Welchs had lived in the house for approximately 10 years, Frank Welch said, and their kids out and on their own now. Welch moved to the Newburgh area in 1980 with friends to attend ITT Tech and met Pam at a grocery store. The two have been married for 30 years, he said.
The cause of the fire is unknown and the Indiana State Fire Marshal will be in Newburgh today investigating.
Bennett said it seems the fire originated in the garage.
Welch said he plans to rebuild and stay in the neighborhood.

Share: Tweet Columbia TriStar Home Video presents "Don't pull my leg, Arty, it might come off in your hands."
DVD ReviewYou've got to give Neil Simon credit for wanting to challenge himself professionally. Decades of hits have made him probably the most successful comedy writer of all time, and no doubt he could easily enough churn out more of the same, and be amply compensated for doing so. But with Lost in Yonkers he moved beyond the wisecracking and very funny characters of his most renowned work, like The Odd Couple or The Sunshine Boys, and wrote about family, its problems and obstacles, and the two great forces that both keep families together and drive them apart: money and guilt. Simon was rewarded with a Pulitzer Prize for his efforts (though that year I was partial to Six Degrees of Separation, myself), and shortly thereafter his play was "opened up" for the screen. And the billing on the movie reminds us that Simon is one of the few writers who is a commodity in his own right—this isn't just Lost In Yonkers, it's Neil Simon's Lost in Yonkers.It's 1942, and Eddie (Jack Laufer) is a widower; only the Mob would lend him the money to care for his wife as she was dying, and now the Mafiosi want to be repaid. Eddie is going to seize a wartime opportunity, selling metal to munitions factories around the country—the only obstacles are his two boys, Jay and Arty (Brad Stoll and Mike Damus). Who will look after them when Dad is on the road? Eddie appeals to his mother (Irene Worth), the forbidding German immigrant known only as Grandma; she lives of course in Yonkers, just north of New York City, with her daughter, Bella (Mercedes Ruehl), who even at 36 cannot quite take care of herself. The arrival and departure of the two boys is a dramatic convenience, for the story's principal concern is Bella, and her desire to have an independent life. The movie is at its weakest early on, when we see Bella at her daffiest—it's Ruehl very over the top, sort of her bid to do her Rain Man. Bella's impairment doesn't seem to be well understood by the characters or even by the filmmakers, so Bella's struggles with her world seem more arbitrary than compassionate; Bella isn't condescended to, but still, we're not quite at the heart of this woman. She loves to go to the movies, and even meets that special someone there—David Straitharn plays Johnny, head usher at the Bijou, and Johnny and Bella talk about getting married and opening a restaurant together. In these scenes, Simon's professionalism and craft shine, but still, everyone talks like a Borscht Belt comedian, and you sense that the writer is finding his way as he goes. Grandma is a matriarchal titan, looking to toughen up her children: "You don't survive in this world without being like steel." She can be nasty and petty, and though the boys don't much take to her, about the worst she does to them is grab them by the ear, as she hollers to the world in general, "Stupid dummkopf!" The bulk of her wrath is saved for her children, especially for Bella when she dares to voice her dreams of independence. When mother and daughter go toe to toe late in the story, much of it is very moving—this is where Simon's risks pay off, where he's looking for more than just the laugh. Bella pleads with her mother: "I gotta love somebody who will love me back before I die," and her anguish and desire are palpable. But the storytelling lacks the steady hand that Simon demonstrates on his home turf of comedy, and the director, Martha Coolidge, doesn't contribute much either to transposing the stage play into a movie or to providing keener insights into these women. Richard Dreyfuss gets top billing, but his is a supporting role at best—it's close to an hour into the story until Uncle Louie shows up, a gangster on the lam. It's a show-stopping part and Dreyfuss is happy to chew it up—as one of his nephews says about Louie, "It's like having a James Cagney movie in your own house." There's also a lesson here in the vagaries of reputation in the entertainment business, and about star wattage. Ruehl and Worth are reprising roles they played in the original Broadway production, but the promising young actor who appeared with them on stage, despite winning acclaim and a Tony award for his performance as Uncle Louie, was jettisoned for a bigger movie star. That actor's name: Kevin Spacey. Rating for Style: B Rating for Substance: B+ Image Transfer

10 October 2013
Mario Monti has agreed to serve as Chairman of the Council for the Future of Europe (CFE). The Council has built its reputation advocating for solutions to youth unemployment, empowerment of financial institutions, and a stronger political union. Monti joined the Council in 2011 at the invitation of Nicolas Berggruen, the founder of the Berggruen Institute on Governance and original Chairman of the Council. He remained in close contact with the Council throughout his tenure as Prime Minister of Italy, a role he was appointed to in November 2011 by President Giorgio Napolitano in the midst of Italy's economic and financial crisis. "We are extremely pleased that Mario has agreed to chair the Council," said Nicolas Berggruen. "His breadth of experience and distinguished reputation will no doubt enhance the impact we can have on issues of importance to the future of the continent. With his leadership, we intend to draw into this action-oriented debate more diverse and younger voices, including stakeholders who often feel extraneous to the process of European integration or frustrated by its outcomes." Prior to courageously undertaking the leadership of Italy during its hour of need, Monti had a direct role in the governance of the EU, first as Commissioner for the Internal Market, Financial Services and Tax Policy (1995-99), then as Commissioner for Competition (1999-2004). He is currently President of Bocconi University and a Senator for life. 6 June 2013
An Urgent Initiative for Youth Employment in Europe
At "Europe, Les prochaines étapes," a "town hall" meeting in Paris on May 28 sponsored by the Berggruen Institute on Governance and Sciences Po, European leaders called for "urgent action" to respond to the crisis of youth unemployment. There are nearly 6 million young people under the age of 25 without jobs today[1]. Town Hall audience gathered at Sciences Po, 28 May, 2013 Addressing the gathering, French President François Hollande called for an "offensive" against youth unemployment, saying "we need to act quickly. In this battle time is the decisive factor." Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy of Spain, where youth unemployment is among the highest in Europe, called for "action now without delay." President François Hollande delivers the opening keynote address Also participating in the gathering were German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble, French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici, German Labor Minister Ursula von der Leyen, French Labor Minister Michel Sapin and the Italian Labor Minister Enrico Giovannini. Werner Hoyer, president of the European Investment Bank, and Martin Schulz, president of the European Parliament, were also present. (From Left) François Lenglet, Minister Enrico Giovannini, Werner Hoyer, Ministers Pierre Moscovici, Michel Sapin, Ursula von der Leyen, and Wolfgang Schäuble Other participants in the meeting included elder statesmen and former leaders such as Jacques Delors, Felipe González, François Fillon and Mario Monti along with student delegations from Sciences Po, the London School of Economics and the Hertie School in Berlin. The centerpiece of the event was the launch of a "growth initiative for Europe" drafted by the German and French labor ministries in conjunction with the Berggruen Institute. Ursula von der Leyen outlined the three main elements of the plan:
Several participants of the meeting called for "frontloading" the EURO 6 billion to be spent immediately. Prime Minister Rajoy called for a further EURO 30 billion in capitalization for the EIB to fight youth unemployment.
Prime Minister Rajoy delivers the closing keynote address EIB President Werner Hoyer committed the bank to this initiative as a key way not only to fight youth unemployment, but to prevent further fragmentation of European financial markets which have made credit scarce for SME, which produce most new jobs. After the morning session at Sciences Po, the labor and finance ministers met at the Elysee Palace with President Hollande to chart the path forward for this initiative. Ursula von der Leyen laid out a "roadmap" for implementation that will include a summit of all European labor ministers and Heads of public employment services in Berlin in July, hosted by Chancellor Merkel and EU-Commission President Barosso, to finalize the initiative and present it "with a single European voice" at the G-20 Summit in St. Petersburg in September. She also called on the private sector to "step up to their responsibility" and take part in this urgent initiative. "To be effective," the German labor minister said, "any jobs program must be demand driven." The goal is to mobilize the available sources of funding and link them with effective labour market policy measures. Governments cannot guarantee jobs, only the private sector can create jobs. But the states can conserve and improve young people's employability. And they can provide European funding for small and medium enterprises to promote growth and employment.
