Analytical Chemistry, Electrochemistry and Surface Chemistry
Analytical Chemistry, Electrochemistry and Surface Chemistry
Our research is aimed at understanding and controlling the kinetics and energetics of reactions occurring at scientifically interesting, technologically relevant solid/liquid interfaces. Driving our fundamental interest is the need to comprehend the intricate relationships between mass transport, surface reactivity, and interfacial structure. This information is useful for the design and optimization of superior chemical process technologies associated with the areas of chemical sensing, energy storage/conversion, photonics, microelectronics, and device miniaturization.
Nanostructured Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage
Thrusts in this area focus on the creation and study of new materials with improved chemical, electronic and structural properties for potential applications in catalysis and power source technologies (e.g., fuel cells and batteries). One goal is to prepare high surface area (>100 m2/g) and high porosity (>70 to 99%) materials with tailored composition and nanostructure (e.g., size, shape and orientation). For instance, we have prepared nanocarbons via chemical vapor deposition that are inherently catalytic for oxygen reduction and hydrogen peroxide decomposition. Current studies involve the synergistic tuning of these nanocarbon supports with more active metal catalysts to enhance catalytic performance.
Chemically-Responsive Composites for Analysis and Sensing
Projects in this area are directed toward the assembly of nanostructured materials (mesoporous, colloidal, sorptive or framework solids) and chemical composites (substrate-specific, activator/reporter molecule systems) for use in developing selective chemical sensing methodologies. By employing both conventional and non-conventional nano- and micro-patterning techniques in conjunction with chemical and electrochemical deposition methods, we have been able to fabricate composite assemblies that are useful as 1D and 2D optical transmission gratings in chemical sensing applications. In a separate project, we have utilized the redox activity of small molecules in a mediated, enzymatic electrochemical sensing scheme. This system enables ultra-low (<1 nM); quantitative detection of biogenic analytes (cholesterol, hydrogen peroxide).
Development of High Resolution Analytical Tools/Methods
Projects in this area focus on the development of improved analytical methods and tools for the spatial, temporal, and spectral investigation of materials and interfaces. Better comprehension of mechanistic factors obtained by these measurements allows for direct establishment of structure/composition/performance relationships. For instance, we have recently used spectroelectrochemical imaging schemes to study proton and lithium insertion at inhomogeneous metal oxides (e. g. MoO3, MoxW1-xO3, MnO2,). Information of this kind is useful for developing superior materials for batteries, flexible electronics, electrochromics, and solar cells. We also developed ultra-sharp, nanosized probe tips with controlled geometry and orientation. These probe provide enhanced spatial resolution for characterization of nanoscale, high-aspect ratio features commonly associated with microelectronic devices.

News: Drake Gets Fancy Again, Goes Back To Wrizzy W/ Swizzy
Wednesday, Feb 27, 2013 2:30PM
Young Money rapper Drake has the Internet talking with a new photo of himself and Grammy-winning producer Swizz Beatz currently floating online.
The unexpected photo popped up this week, leading many to believe it may mean the two hip-hop artists are working together on new music.
This photo surfaced recently of Swizz Beatz in the lab with Drake, possibly working on some music for the TO native's upcoming album. Jay-Z and Timbaland were also spotted in the studio with Swizz, although it's unclear what the stars were working on. Still, these make for some dope flicks nonetheless. (XXL Mag)
Earlier this month, Young Money president Mack Maine updated fans on Drizzy's forthcoming Nothing Was the Same LP.
"Drake doesn't have a date yet. He just put out his first street single," Maine said in an interview. "I actually heard some of it, it's great. He's on the same pace as he always is, to drop a classic. He's like ten songs in, knowing him, that's only four songs. He's probably only going to keep six of them. He's a perfectionist. So be on the lookout for Drake." (Rap-Up)
Recently, Drake's longtime friend/producer Noah "40" Shebib briefly discussed the rapper's third solo effort.
"I don't know, I don't know. Every day it changes. That's tough. That's a hard thing to say. It depends. Because you know we work, and we have ideas and we have songs but as we create more songs, the shape of the album will change and the progression of it will change. As much as we might be sure that we're on a path and we're... We're sort of working sequentially right now. We feel like we have 1, 2, 3, you know we're going 4, 5, 6. That's how we're moving forward, in order of the actual playlist of the album. But as we make more music that fits in other places, it will change and adjust as far as how many songs, or how far we're going to go so it's yet to be discovered. We're still too early to make a call about whether or not we're half done or a quarter done or 75 percent done. I mean, it could be any of the above." (The Hollywood Reporter)
Cash Money Records CEO Birdman talked about the Toronto native's passion for music-making last week.
"Drake definitely is a fan of the culture and he's definitely a fan of our culture, and where we come from -- Cash Money, me and Wayne and how we built our whole foundation -- so he'll jab at some of the old Cash Money/Young Money flavors and he's slick with it," Birdman explained. "And that song is real rap, they ain't doing that no more. That's what makes him so different to me, and that's what makes it so fly how he do it." (MTV)
Drake and Swizz Beatz previously worked together on his debut album Thank Me Later's "Fancy" hit.

DURANT, OK--A local business in Durant celebrated its 10-year anniversary in a very selfless way on Friday. Through its efforts, the lives of 60 people will be saved.
In an effort to show their appreciation and give back to the community, Health Back Home Health hosted a blood drive and cookout today. Tara Trobaugh, business developer for Health Back, said: "Our first and foremost thing is that we hope we get enough blood. And then just to let people know we're here to help them with any health issues they may have." Trobaugh said it's extremely easy to spend 15 minutes giving blood in order to save someone's life.
"That's one of the best gifts you can do is save someone's life," said Trobaugh. "I mean how much better does that get?" Health Back representatives said they hoped to get around 30 donations from the drive, but by the end of the day they had 20. Unfortunately nine people were turned down due to iron deficiency. Locals say the cause is necessary and more than worth it--even if people are nervous about giving blood. Local Alex Moody said: "That few moments of that needle stick, you know saving that person's life...There's no weight scale to it. It just greatly outweighs the benefits as opposed to the negatives."

CHICAGO (AP) - A Chicago law firm took steps to sue aircraft manufacturer Boeing Co. on behalf of 83 passengers from the Asiana Airlines flight that crash-landed in San Francisco.
Ribbeck Law Chartered says in a news release that it filed a petition Monday in Cook County Circuit Court in Chicago to help preserve evidence in the July 6 crash. Three people were killed when the Boeing 777 clipped a seawall at the end of a runway.
Ribbeck says additional pleadings will be filed against Asiana Airlines and several component parts manufacturers.
The firm says the crash might have been caused by a mechanical malfunction of the auto-throttle. It also says some sliding ramps opened inside the plane, injuring passengers and blocking their exit.
A Boeing spokesman said the company had no comment.

For the second straight day, the 113th U.S. Open will restart a round at 7:15 a.m. ET. The USGA spent two full days trying to make up as much golf after the three-plus hour rain delay early Thursday morning. But there was still no way the 156-man field was going to finish 36 holes and be cut in half by nightfall on Friday.
Friday's weather did allow for golf deeper into the evening than expected, but there are still 70 players who have to complete their round. Some players, such as Tim Clark and Charl Schwartzel, have just one full hole left while 11 others have their entire back nine ahead of them. That should put the conclusion of the second round approximately at 9:30. The USGA will then re-pair the players based on their position on the leaderboard and send them out shortly after that final group comes into the clubhouse.
USGA executive director Mike Davis told ESPN on Friday that the preference is to send the field out in twosomes all off the first tee, playing Merion's 18 holes as they were originally set up instead of the split tees at No. 1 and No. 11. But Davis and the USGA are willing to sacrifice Saturday for Sunday, where they absolutely want twosomes rolling into Merion's 18th on the primetime broadcast. They still have enough time to do this on both days, but if there's more inclement weather or a threat of it, they may quickly re-pair Saturday morning and use the same format as the first two rounds.
Of the 70 players still out on the course, Ian Poulter has the most on the line when the restart horn sounds at 7:15 a.m. Poulter is currently just one shot off the lead, one of five players at even-par. He is one of the better "grinders" in the game, relatively unaffected by the extremely tough conditions that the USGA lays out. But while fellow Englishman Justin Rose and Luke Donald are already in the house at even-par, Poulter still has to play Merion's brutal final five holes, one of the toughest finishing stretches in U.S. Open history. Given the difficulty and ample bogey risks, it's more likely that he drops a shot than jumps up into a midpoint tie for the lead with Billy Horschel and Phil Mickelson, the only two golfers in red numbers.
Joining Poulter at even-par with holes to play early Saturday is Cheng Tsung Pan, an amateur from the University of Washington who's amazingly hanging in with the pros at the toughest test in golf. Pan has nine more holes to play, but he'll have the entire Huskies fan base watching closely this weekend. Fellow Pac 12 amateur Michael Kim, the college golfer of the year out of Cal, is just 1-over with seven more holes to go. Charley Hoffman and Jerry Kelly round out the set of golfers within two shots of the lead who could make a run at Mickelson and Horschel during Saturday morning's restart.
***UPDATE: The third round with resume at 12:15 p.m., with the USGA sending players off split tees in threesomes. Here is the complete list of pairings and tee times for the third round.

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- A controversial hospital merger is going ahead without one key player -- University of Louisville Hospital -- and it says it will have to cut services.
The merger would have brought University, Jewish Hospital, Saints Mary and Elizabeth hospitals, and Catholic health Initiatives -- CHI -- together under the same ownership. But now U of L will not be a part of it. The state had raised concerns about private ownership of a public hospital.
U of L released a statement after Friday's merger announcement saying it was disappointed that Governor Beshear would not approve the university's participation in the merger. "Without the ability to participate in this merger or an infusion of significant and ongoing funding from the state, we will be unable to continue to provide the same level of service or training," the statement from Community & Media Relations Manager David McArthur said.
The governor released a statement Friday afternoon saying that he and Attorney General Jack Conway met with U of L representatives Thursday to discuss the issue. Beshear said he expects to get back with the university on Monday. "We remain committed to supporting University Hospital in reaching our common goals of care for our most vulnerable citizens while maintaining solid financial standing for the institution," the statement said.
Jewish Hospital lost $7 million and laid off about 600 workers during the past year. It hopes that a merged system will change all of that.
The merged organization will be called KentuckyOne Health. In a news release, Bob Hewett, chair of the board for KentuckyOne Health, said, "The people of Kentucky face significant health threats, not just from disease, but also from issues related to access to preventive and advanced medical care and a severe shortage of physicians. We believe that this new health system will make for a healthier Kentucky."
CHI Senior Vice President Paul Edgett explained during a news conference Friday, "We originally had intended it to have three partners, but with the governor's decision, we did need to move forward, because we believe we're better prepared to meet the needs of the Commonwealth."
59-year-old Ruth Brinkley is the president and chief executive officer of the new organization. She is a former executive at Ascension Health and Catholic Health Initiatives. The statement quoted her as saying, "The organizations have come together as KentuckyOne Health because they recognize that continuing to function as we have is not going to solve the issues. We must change to more effectively meet the health needs of those we serve."
There were concerns that the merger would prohibit certain reproductive procedures from taking place at U of L Hospital because they go against Catholic doctrine and that health care for the indigent might suffer. Under the merger, while the hospitals will retain their individual names, some services will be changing. Sterilizations, for instance, will no longer be performed at Jewish Hospital.
CHI is a catholic based organization.
The proposed merger would have created a statewide network of healthcare facilities, but after reviewing the report, Governor Steve Beshear said December 30th it was not a good idea and blocked the merger.
"After exhaustive discussions and research, I have determined that this proposed transaction is not in the best interest of the Commonwealth and therefore should not move forward," Beshear said in a statement released then. "In my opinion the risks to the public outweigh the potential benefits."
Beshear said he understood that the "changing health care industry has caused significant challenges for both University and Jewish Hospital & St. Mary's Healthcare," but added that the administration is committed to "help them fulfill their missions and succeed in a changing health care economy."
Beshear was the only public official required to sign off on the merger.
Now that the merger is happening, Catholic Health Initiatives says it will put $320 million into KentuckyOne Health. Much of that money will go to an electronic health records system along with other facilities and equipment.

BC Player of the Week: Gorman forward Carlton takes honor
It's not often that the same school will take Big Country Player of the Week in successive weeks, particularly when that school has an enrollment of less than 100.
Nevertheless, Class 1A DII Gorman (enrollment 75) has managed to pull it off, courtesy of junior forward Zach Carlton, who produced a combined 65 points and 28 rebounds through two games last week. His performance came just one week after Gorman sophomore Melissa Ramirez earned the same honor.
"Game in, game out he's our go-to guy," said Gorman coach Tommy Simmons, whose team enters this week at 15-7 overall and 2-1 in District 17. "Our players are focused on getting him the ball whenever we can."
That makes sense, considering the junior is averaging 25.3 points and 11.3 boards per game.
Last week, he opened with 27 points and 16 rebounds in a 58-45 loss to Lingleville. Three nights later, he led the Panthers to a 69-60 win over Strawn with 38 points and 12 boards. He also managed four steals in each game.
"To Zach's credit, he's a great hustler and he works very hard on his game,"
Simmons said. "But this isn't the first time he's had 30-plus points. He's double-doubled pretty much every game, and I'm glad we're getting him back for one more year after this season."
1. Allison Szabo, post, Sr., Merkel girls basketball — Put together back-to-back monster performances in wins over Clyde and Breckenridge, beginning with 29 points and 18 rebounds against CHS.
She followed that with 20 points and nine boards against Breck to help the top-ranked Lady Badgers improve to 28-0 overall and 9-0 in District 7-2A.
2. Brady Leissner, forward, Sr., Jim Ned boys basketball — With a talented teammate like Will Bryant around, sometimes Leissner can be overlooked by media types like myself.
But make no mistake, this kid can play and posts quality numbers on a consistent basis.
A week ago, he was good for 47 total points in wins over Ballinger (66-51) and Brady (76-35), while charting eight steals and five assists.
3. Reagan Hadaway, foward, So., Haskell girls basketball — Averaged a double-double for the week, beginning with a 21-point, nine rebound effort in a 44-30 win over Anson on Tuesday.
Three nights later, the sophomore hurt Albany with 23 points and 14 rebounds in a 46-26 win that gave the Maidens sole possession of first place in District 9-1A DI with a 5-0 league mark.
"Reagan is a high character kid who takes pride in her play on both ends of the floor," Haskell coach Blake Eddleman said. "She is going to be a joy to watch and coach over the next two years."
4. Tyler Goodwin, foward, Jr., Ira boys basketball — Had a pair of double-doubles last week, including a 35-point, 12-rebound night in a win over Westbrook that saw him collect four assists and three steals.
Goodwin began the week with a 19-point, 13-rebound performance to help Ira defeat Hermleigh.
5. Aubrey Horton, center, Sr., Early girls basketball — Week after week, Horton produces, and not only in the scoring department.
Last week she burned Brady and Grape Creek with combined 36 points, but also gathered a total of 20 boards, to go with six steals, four assists and four blocks.
6. Aaron Callaway, guard, Sr., Dublin boys basketball — Callaway can flat out score, and last week was indicative of the threat he poses.
In back-to-back losses to Comanche and Clyde, the senior poured in 30 and 23 points, respectively.
"Aaron continues to lead this young team each and every night he steps on the floor against opposing teams' best defenders," Dublin coach Richard Pringle said.
The Lions enter this week at 11-11 overall and 1-6 in District 7-2A.
7. Mikayla Tiemann, guard, Sr., Priddy girls basketball — Averaged 14.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists last week, including 17 points in a win over Gustine that improved the Lady Pirates to 5-0 in District 16-1A DII.
Tiemann has developed into a dangerous outside threat, hitting seven 3s in her past two games.
8. Cameron Denison, guard, Sr., Early boys basketball — Helped the Longhorns to a pair of district wins over Brady and Grape Creek, averaging 17.5 points on the week.
Denison also hits the glass hard for a guard, averaging seven rebounds last week, along with four assists and three steals.
9. Emilea English, post, Jr., Aspermont girls basketball — Had a 30-point night with 10 rebounds in a nondistrict game with Crosbyton on Friday.
But a more modest effort of nine points and eight boards three nights earlier helped the Lady Hornets (17-7, 6-1) earn a temporary tie for the lead in District 9-1A (Paducah now leads by a half game).
10. Addison Wyatt, post, Jr., Clyde girls basketball — Fell just short of posting a double-double in a 56-36 win over Dublin on Friday.
The junior nearly supplied her team's margin of victory with 19 points, to which she added nine boards.
Ricky Stark, forward, Sr., Eula boys (Shot 58 percent and averaged 14 points, three steals and six rebounds vs. Moran and Roby); Brittany Limmer, post, Priddy girls basketball (Averaged 8.2 points and 9.8 rebounds last week, including a 17-point night vs. Gustine); KJ Elkins, guard, Jr., Early girls basketball (Combined 21 points, six steals, six assists and four rebounds vs. Brady and Grape Creek); Tiffany Young, Post, Sr., Merkel girls basketball (Averaged 10 points and 9.5 rebounds vs. Clyde and Breckenridge); Jake Gleason, post, Sr., Jim Ned (Combined 20 points and 10 rebounds vs. Ballinger and Brady); Logan Thompson, guard, Sr., Hawley boys basketball (Score 22 points, including three 3-pointers, vs. Comanche); Brook Allen, guard, Sr., Comanche (Combined 21 points, 16 rebounds, seven steals and six assists vs. Dublin and Hawley); Luke Kraatz, foward, So., Winters (Averaged 12 points and seven rebounds vs. Christoval and Miles); Emily Harris, guard, Jr., Early girls basketball (Combined 15 points, eight rebounds, three steals, four assists and two blocks vs. Brady and Grape Creek); Rachel Ripley, post, So., Comanche girls basketball (Combined 28 points and seven rebounds vs. Dublin and Hawley ); Austin Bartlett, forward, Sr., Eula boys basketball (Shot 63 percent and averaged 14 points and six rebounds in wins over Moran and Roby); Madison Hagood, Post, So., Comanche (Combined 29 points and six rebounds vs. Dublin and Hawley); Joe Holland, guard, Sr., Cross Plains boys basketball (Averaged 13.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.5 steals and 4.5 assists in wins over Santa Anna and Brookesmith); Daryl Hagle, guard, So., Winters (Came off bench to average 7.5 points and four rebounds vs. Christoval and Miles); Kaycie Drewes, guard, Jr., Comanche girls basketball (Combined 26 points, seven rebounds, seven steals and four assists vs. Dublin and Hawley); Will Bryant, forward, Sr., Jim Ned boys basketball (Combined 29 points and 19 rebounds vs. Ballinger and Brady); Janae Williams, guard, Jr., Early girls basketball (Combined 11 points, eight steals, eight assists, eight rebounds and a block vs. Brady and Grape Creek).

The debate was part introduction and mostly a friendly forum as candidates shared their thoughts on issues like health care, education, curbing gun violence and marijuana.
On hand was Former DEP Secretary John Hanger, Lebanon County Commissioner Jo Ellen Litz, Treasurer Rob McCord, ex-DEP Secretary, former presidential advisor Kathleen McGinty, U.S. Representative Allyson Schwartz, and York County businessman Tom Wolf.
The event, held at the Harrisburg Hilton, was part of the Pennsylvania Progressive Summit.
Going into the discussion, York County's Tom Wolf led the polls. (DETAILS: http://www.abc27.com/story/24827059/poll-wolf-leading-pack-of-corbett-challengers)
However, it's still early in the game. The month of May feels far away, and for contenders a lot of time is left to campaign.
Jack Wanger declined to participate in the debate.

"First viewing I've overlooked a lot of Steve Martin's early comedies, for no real reason other than there being many other movies ahead of them I wanted to see. So I added this one to my Netflix instant queue to finally see it & there it sat for months until I noticed it's leaving instant watch on 1/31 (clearing movies from my instant queue because they're leaving instant watch will obviously be an ongoing event).

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Tuesday night an armed robbery victim was found bleeding in the middle of the street at Northbar and Dunbar in North Jackson.
It happened around 6:30 pm. One witness said he was on the phone when he heard his mother yell someone had been shot. Another relative screamed for help. The family managed to get the victim inside their home. He told them the person who shot him was trying to take his wallet.
"I got off the phone and I ran out and I saw this guy bent over bleeding from the head so I told my step dad to bring him in and call the police. He was shot in the stomach and he had a gash in his head so they hit him with the pistol," said Christopher Rollins, a witness.
There is no word on whether the robber escaped with the wallet. So far police have not released the shooting victim's identity. He was taken to a local hospital.

Over the past weeks, we've been talking a lot about the famine that has hit the Horn of Africa: Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya and Djibouti.

Washed Away by Drought

From Conservapedia
Chess? Chess shouldn't be listed here. I've played organized chess for money with the mayor of Kansas City, and I don't think it's illegal. DanH 14:41, 29 June 2007 (EDT)
The article doesn't claim that playing chess for money is illegal. It isn't, actually. Rather, it discusses the fact that there is a bill to clarify the status of skill-based online gambling. An issue with UIGEA is its reliance on various ambigous, archaic state laws to determine what is illegal and what isn't. In response, Rep. Robert Wexler of FL introduced H.R. 2610, the Skill Game Protection Act. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:H.R.2610: TheEngineer 18:16, 2 July 2007 (EDT)
Please Explain Edit Revisions
I changed Gambling is an addictive and unproductive activity consisting ... with The term Gambling is used to describe any activity consisting... Why is this being reverted? I think this makes the article better. By leaving it in, the article is saying that chess is unproductive, or poker is unproductive. I actually find both of those games to be very intellectually stimulating. --PaulLaroque 01:11, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- Chess is not gambling. Gambling is often an addiction, and may, therefore, be stimulating. Like many liberals, you confuse stimulation with intellectualism. Please study up before you vandalize anything else here. Frankly, you need a cool-down block, at the least. BHarlan 01:17, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- People bet money on chess games, hence it is gambling. And what is wrong with finding poker intellectually stimulating? --PaulLaroque 01:21, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- Only some chess games are gambling. Chess by itself is not gambling, any more than other things a liberal could bet on, like the outcome of a surgical procedure. BHarlan 01:23, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
Who really cares if chess is gambling or not, my point is that an encyclopedia article should start with a simple definition. Merriam Webster defines gambling as:
- 1 a: to play a game for money or property b: to bet on an uncertain outcome 2: to stake something on a contingency : take a chance
Wikipedia as:
- Gambling is the wagering of money or something of material value on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods.
Why can't we just define the darn thing before casting any judgment on it? --PaulLaroque 01:29, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- Ok, I am cold and I have not had coffee yet, so I am grumpy as I write this. BHarlan - lay off the liberal namecalling and treat other editors - even if you disagree with them - as you would expect to be treated yourself. Regarding the article - it should start with a definition, but it should also state that it is addictive. However, as that claim is currently uncited, one of you will provide a source that confirms gambling is addictive. Enough of this stupid in-fighting, we are here to build an encyclopaedia, not bicker amongst ourselves. --KotomiTnandeyanen? 01:38, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- the issue of addiction is important and should have its own fully referenced section. Only a small minority of people (like 10%) are addicted to gambling but they create a lot of problems for themselves (and a lot of revenue for the casinos and governments). The addictive business should not be in the lede. And "unproductive" is false: gambling is a major source of legal entertainment, as office pools at playoff time indicate. RJJensen 03:48, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- Exactly so, Dr. Jensen. Anyone with life experience knows, almost without first-hand experience, that those addicted to gambling will, if need be, bet on anything; trains/airplanes/buses arriving late, or early, the chances of a co-worker not showing for work, whatever. Experts in the field surmise that it is at best wildly under-diagnosed and unknown by family members, so good at covering their tracks these poor souls become, most are never discovered unless and until their "house of cards" tumbles, and by then financial ruin is complete. [1]- [2] - [3] - [4] - [5] --₮K/Admin/Talk 04:07, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
Great we're all in agreement, the article should definitely talk about addiction, just not in the first sentence. I am much happier with the current form. --PaulLaroque 08:21, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
- I am in agreement that if I see that kind of edit-warring again, the participants won't be able to edit ever again. When this sort of thing happens, simply refrain from reverting over and over again, and post on one of the Admins pages (not Andy's) explaining what is going on. Thanks. --₮K/Admin/Talk 10:32, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

Lima City Council heard some financial news Monday that should put smiles on the faces of the legislators.
Lima Finance Director Steve Cleaves says after seeing a 700-thousand dollar increase in the city's cash balance in April, the city now has a 9.1 million dollar cash balance on hand.
Cleaves says in the first 4 months of the year they have seen an increase of one percent in income tax revenue and expenditures have dropped by 2.5 percent, primarily in the area of labor.
Cleaves stresses that 9 million figure will drop by 4 million over the next few years because of badly needed capital purchases.

We had been talking about a quail dish for a while, and what better segue from the last post than to describe the dish we put on the menu tonight: buttermilk-fried quail with cheese grits, fresh black-eyed peas, ham hocks, red eye gravy and pickled watermelon rind. Serve it with a side of rusted-chevy-propped-up-on-cinder-blocks-in-the-yard and that's as Southern as an Alabama Slammer.
Here's where the deep fryer works its magic: a small piece of realtively lean protein can be cooked quickly, yet insulated from the direct heat, so it gets crispy, gets cooked, and stays moist. Its crunchy exterior is a perfect contrast to the creaminess of the (Anson Mills antebellum-style) cheese grits. The black-eyed peas are BRIGHT GREEN, even more so after they've been blanched, something I never once saw in the South. The ham hocks have been poached and picked, and the resulting cuisson is used to flavor the red-eye gravy. The pickled watermelon rind is a sweet, sour, and cool counterpoint to the heat, spice and richness of the rest of the components.
As with most Southern food, it's best enjoyed with sweet tea, cold beer, or pink champagne.

The moves paid off.
Last month, Brian Lee and Kim Kardashian's LA-based company gained 1 million new members for a total of 13 million members. New members have increased 25% compared to the four months prior.
The company says it has more than double the users of its closest category competitor (JustFab, Beachmint, etc). It took Shoedazzle 18 months to get its first 1 million users after it launched in 2009.
"While we built a sizable business in a very short amount of time serving customers through the subscription model, our research showed there was an enormous segment of women who really wanted to buy from us, but not necessarily on a monthly basis. We're looking to create a billion dollar company, and our recent results and acceleration validate that strategic choice," Shoedazzle's CEO Bill Strauss says in a release.

Video for "Whore" coming soon! Are you ready?
IN THIS MOMENT are kicking off 2014 with more than a bang – they're ushering in the new year with THE HELLPOP TOUR II. Set to launch January 2 in Portland, OR, the 16-city tour wraps January 5 in South Florida, where the band will then embark on the SHIPROCKED cruise. Joining IN THIS MOMENT on HELLPOP II are BUTCHER BABIES in direct support, DEVOUR THE DAY and ALL HAIL THE YETI. Complete dates are below.
The Crowd Surge fan club pre-sale will start Wednesday, November 13, at noon EST, with tickets going on-sale to the public on Friday, November 15. The fan club pre-sales offer two packages, one with a ticket and pre-show meet and greet, and the other including a ticket, t-shirt and meet and greet. For more details on fan club packages, please visit the official In This Moment Facebook page.
IN THIS MOMENT are currently on the road headlining the first leg of their HELLPOP tour, which kicked off October 24 in Tempe, AZ and runs through November 27 in Los Angeles, CA. The tour is being fueled by the band's continued success at radio, where current single "Whore" sits at #21 at Active Rock formats and is poised to break the Top 20. Watch the provocative lyric video for "Whore" here.
"I am so proud and excited for the world to hear 'Whore'," says IN THIS MOMENT frontwoman Maria Brink of her band's latest single. "The message behind this song is taking back control. It is about taking the power from a disgusting and degrading word and turning it back around on the accuser. It's about self-empowerment, love and liberation. This is an honest and raw movement that needs to be heard."
The imagery the band has created around "Whore" is just as provocative: "I decided to pose nude for the visual art for 'Whore' to evoke a raw vulnerable emotion. The word WHORE written down my back and the dunce cap symbolize me placing myself on the stake for those who are suffering, and I can only hope to encourage at least one person to find the self worth and love they deserve to transcend out of a painful situation into a beautiful one. It is about finding our power and taking a stand. We are resilient beings and need to realize our incredible strengths. I will not bow down to others perceptions of me. I will only rise in the name of art, love and music."
"Whore" is the third single from IN THIS MOMENT's Century Media Records release 'Blood'. The album was released in August 2012 and marked the highest debut of the band's career, entering the Billboard Top 200 at No. 15 and selling more than 20,000 units first week. The record has emerged as one of the best selling rock albums of the past year, with sales of more than 195,000, and counting.
From January 26-30, 2014, the band will be making a return engagement on the SHIPROCKED cruise, where they will set sail out of Miami, FL, to Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas. For more information, visit www.shiprocked.com.

In the creative writing exercise, writers add a word onto a sentence without seeing the language preceding it, often creating nonsensical phrases such as "this exquisite corpse".In this digital forest of creativity, anyone can add onto the "seed animation" provided by featured Tate artists and shift the direction of the tree being created, or else start a new tree entirely. Designed to work most efficiently on Chrome browsers, "This Exquisite Forest" is a cultural and social collaboration, equipped with a music tool that allows artists to align original animation with instrumentals."This Exquisite Forest" will be on display in the Tate Modern gallery in London starting today. It will be exciting to see how the forest evolves over time in this living, breathing digital experiment. Share this MarjorieKalomeris Google Tate Modern This Exquisite Forest

First off, I want to start by admitting that I did not read every comment posted in regard to this. By the time I checked in, the forums were way too flooded to read. So excuse any duplicate ideas.
I personally thing the hiring of Juan Castillo is a good move.
1) Most of the other candidates would have had to make a transition to DC just the same as Castillo. I know people say, well a DL, LB, secondary coach should be a good DC. But they have to learn the position as well, teaching technique, and teaching schemes are two different things. Just because you can teach your CB their position doesn't automatically mean you can handle breaking down a teams Offense, and setting up a game plan, and during game making on the fly adjustments. To be honest, hiring one of those other guys would be the same as hiring McDermot again (except you have no idea how these new coaches will work with you).
2) His experience in Offense helps in defense. There is NO QUESTION he has an advantage. He can coach his players to look for weaknesses in O linemen. He knows where they want to go, how to read their adjustments, and they plan accordingly. I guarantee you; they will have more sacks next year. Jan WILL show those guys how to see weakness in a Tackle (maybe he is leaning on one leg or something stupid, and the D linemen can adjust his game to make it more stressful for that o linemen) This means more sacks.
3) He is a known commodity. You know what you have in Juan. He is a well respected, well loved, hard working coach. The dude has a air mattress under his desk. The dude sleeps in the office sometimes breaking down film.
Lets face it guys, every coach has to transition sometime or another. When Andy came to Philly (was he a head coach before)? So he had to learn and adjust. If you hire a LB coach, doesn't he have to learn the coordinator position as well, compound this to the fact that you know little about your new coach. When McDermot became DC, he had to transition as well (even though he did spell Johnson in the past while he was ill). The point is, every coach has a learning curve (EVERY COACH). But we accept it. What makes a DC turned Head Coach capable of calling Offensive plays? But most are very involved (Wasn't Bill Belichick a DC, but isn't he involved on O)? Isn't there a long list of Defensive head coaches who have their hands in on offense in the NFL? But no one complains because they are Head coaches.
Juan is more than capable; he is actually the most capable of all the Joes the interviewed. He was the most qualified, and deserved the opportunity above all candidates.
I have a crazy theory I wanted to put out there. It wouldn't surprise me that Andy hired Juan with other motives. What if Andy is looking at finishing off his contract with us, but after it's done, he takes a Mike Holmgren like job with us, he would then hire Juan Castillo as his new head coach. Don't forget that Shurmur considered Juan for a Offensive Coordinator job, and now he is a Defensive Coordinator. The dude is obviously well like, respected, and intelligent enough to understand both O and D. He has a strong personality, and will be well liked. I think he will win the fans over as well. My prediction is that in a few years, Juan Castillo will be your new head coach hired by Andy Reid.

By ALEXIS ZOTOS6 News Reporter
MARYVILLE (WATE) - A law that would make it harder for dangerous felons to make parole has stalled in the Tennessee State House. The bill is known as "Amelia's Law," and named for Amelia Keown.
The 16-year-old died August 14 when she was hit head-on on U.S. Highway 411 near Maryville. The driver of the vehicle that struck hit, John Perkins, also died.
Amelia's family has been pushing for tougher parole rules. The bill named in Amelia's honor has stalled in the Tennessee State House and will be put on hold until next year.
Fighting for the law has been Amanda Moore's sole focus since her daughter's death.
"My heart sank even though I knew that it would probably happen," said Moore.
Amelia's Law would make it harder for dangerous felons to make parole. A fiscal note recently attached to the bill says it would cost $668,000 to implement, which is causing some lawmakers to reconsider their support for the bill.
That's something Moore says is hard to swallow.
"It is hard to hear. It's the same answer I got when she got killed?" said Moore. "It boiled down to they needed another bed. They needed another bed for someone else. This comes down to, is it more important for the state of Tennessee to save a perceived amount of money or to protect their citizens?"
A new Tennessee Bureau of Investigation toxicology report says Perkins was released from prison early. He had served four years of a 12-year sentence.
Moore says she is not giving up hope and has strong support from the bill's sponsors.
"Bob Ramsey who has been extremely supportive through this entire thing said, 'Don't let them forget. Don't let them forget about her, her story, how important it is for the citizens of Tennessee to have a bill like this to protect them.'"
The hardest part for Moore to deal with is the timing. News of the bill being put on hold came one week before Amelia's birthday.
"It's really hard to know she would have been 17, and she's not here, and we always made a really huge deal out of her birthday," Moore added.
Moore says she plans to push again for the bill next year. Now she is turning her attention to walk in Amelia's honor at an event sponsored by Mother's Against Drunk Driving.
"I don't want her to be forgotten. I don't want her to be just the girl that got killed on 411. She was too good of a person. She had too much going for her, and she was really going to do things, and our family got robbed of her because the state of Tennessee didn't do their job," Moore said.
The walk and will be held on April 20 at 9:30 a.m. at West Hills Park, located off North Winston Road.
You can register for the walk by going to the Amelia's Law website.
Amelia's mom hopes everyone will join in and support the fight against impaired drivers.

The lone goal in the first period between the Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks came from Milan Lucic, who scored his first goal in the last eight games. Less than a minute into the second period, Lucic struck again to give the Bruins a two-goal lead:
The Blackhawks would answer back a few minutes later, when rookie Brandon Saad scored on a one-timer:
This was Saad's first career playoff goal. It was also the first goal Tuukka Rask had allowed on his past 70 shots.
The Blackhawks had a chance to tie the game midway through the period when they had a 5-on-3 power play, but a strong penalty kill from the Bruins limited Chicago's chances and preserved Boston's lead.
The Blackhawks led in shots, 24-17, at the second intermission.

Matt Moore takes his talents to South Beach
The Dolphins have signed free agent QB Matt Moore to a two-year contract.— Steve Reed (@SteveReedAP) July 29, 2011
Steve Reed @carolinagrowl tweets: "The Dolphins have signed free agent QB Matt Moore to a two-year contract." It's great to see Moore land on his feet. Last year Matt wasn't exactly setup to succeed because of a spate of injuries on the and some of John Fox's coaching decisions. NFL Analyst Dave Razzano adds: "RT @RUSSLANDE: While I like Orton, I think Matt Moore is a vastly under-rated QB and will easily win the starting QB job and will shine ..." http://twitter.com/#!/RUSSLANDE/status/96981125699870722 I'm certain we all wish Matt the very best in Miami. I look forward to seeing Matt show the world his talents in Miami!

|Service history
In service:
The Asymmetric Recoilless Carbine-920, abbreviated ARC-920 or known simply as the railgun, is a compact-channel linear accelerator weapon used by the United Nations Space Command. It was designed and manufactured by Acheron Security.[5]
Design details[edit]
The ARC-920 uses a pair of parallel conducting rails to accelerate its projectiles. A large electric current flows from one rail into the projectile and then to the other rail; the electromagnetic effects of this interaction accelerate the projectile to an immense speed. The rifle requires a brief charging period before firing high-explosive rounds accelerated to an incredible speed.[6] The explosive yield contained in the round adds to the kinetic force of the impact, making the weapon effective against both infantry and armor.[5] The weapon lacks a scope.[6]
Compared to the Spartan Laser, the ARC-920's charging time is half the duration and deals less damage to vehicles. In addition, the travelling time for a fired shot is almost instantaneous.[6] In Campaign and Spartan Ops, the charging time is longer than in War Games.
Even though the weapon lacks a scope of its own, one can zoom in using the armor's built-in 5x zoom function, and the weapon can be charged and fired with the zoom only being broken by the shot firing. This can be used to give greater precision to long-range shots. This tactic is only effective against stationary, very large, or slow-moving targets, however. Against more nimble targets the ARC-920 is best used at close to medium ranges, where its non-line-of-sight charge-up and significant aim-assist make it quite deadly. The long reload between shots however can make it a punishing weapon to use if the first shot misses, since the user will be defenseless for a fairly long while before another railgun shot is available, and will be forced to retreat or switch to another weapon. Additionally, the weapon has a very small splash radius and has a very high projectile speed, so unlike most other explosive weapons it is best used by aiming directly at the center of mass of the target as opposed to firing at the ground below them in order to kill via splash.
If the user has any type of grenade, a fully charged railgun's firing can be delayed by around 1 second if said user throws a grenade. This is more efficient than switching the railgun out, which restarts the charging sequence. However, target lock must be re- acquired (if lost) in the 1 second delay.
The railgun is primarily an anti-heavy-infantry weapon, capable of killing Spartans, Elites and, on any difficulty below Legendary, even Promethean Knights in a single hit, but it also has some limited anti-materiel capability - it can kill Ghosts in two hits, and Banshees or Warthogs in approximately three. Against heavily armored vehicles such as Scorpions, Wraiths and Mantises it is not very effective, unless the vehicle in question has already been severely damaged by other means.
In Spartan Ops, the ARC-920 features an additional advantage in the fact that, unlike the Spartan Laser, Rocket Launcher and Sniper Rifle, a player can pick up additional ammunition from all UNSC ammo crates, giving the player a potentially unlimited supply of ammunition.
- Canonically, a magnetically accelerated projectile would move at many times the speed of sound. However, for the sake of balance, the railgun's projectiles move at a much slower subsonic speed in gameplay.
- Despite being a railgun, the rings that form around the barrel when charging, as well as the Railgun Kill medal depicting a projectile going through rings, seem more indicative of a coilgun.
- This weapon's name may be a reference to the M-920 Cain, a railgun in the Mass Effect series. In addition, the number 920 is a reference to the number 7 (9-2-0=7)

An autopsy late Thursday afternoon confirms a Keystone Steel and Wire maintenance worker died of a heart attack due to heart disease and not the heat.
John Decanter of Manito collapsed Wednesday after working at 12-hour shift at the Bartonville plant.
Co-workers say the 40-year-old complained of being over-heated before heading for the shower room at the plant. The main part of the steel mill does not have air conditioning.
But an autopsy Thursday found no evidence of heat stress or heat stroke. It did, however, find that Decanter had significant blockage in the coronary arteries.
A company spokesman says Keystone takes employee conditions seriously by providing an air conditioned space for breaks, water, and Gatorade.

Artist James Surls has been selected to create a sculpture for in honor of 's centennial next year. The sculpture is expected to be installed in May 2013 and will cost an estimated $400,000. The project is funded by , a health care company based in the city.
The announcement comes after an 18-month organizational and selection process that included the City of Clayton, its parks and recreation department, the Clayton Board of Aldermen, the Clayton Century Foundation and Centene.
Members of the arts community also participated, including representatives from the Saint Louis Art Museum and . Via Partnership, a St. Louis-based consulting group that works with public and private organizations to develop and implement public art strategies, is assisting in the process.
The field first was narrowed to four finalists who each came to Clayton, visited the site, met the selection committee and submitted proposals.
"They had to go through the approval process," said Patty DeForrest, director of parks and recreation for Clayton. "Now we are negotiating the contract with the artist."
The chosen sculpture resembles a vase with modernistic plant life rising from it. Like much of Surls' work, it shows a sensibility to natural forms and evokes a sense of both the present and future.
Surls is an internationally known artist whose work has been exhibited all over the world. His work also is in private collections and major museums, including the Dallas Museum of Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Commissioning a public work of art is a slow process. But once the field of contenders narrowed to four, enthusiasm mounted. DeForrest said that she was excited to see how important art is to the local community and that she found the artist's visions inspiring.
"What he does is very natural," DeForrest said. "We're very honored to acquire art from him. There isn't much of his work in the Midwest."
The sculpture project must receive approval from the CCF board and the Board of Aldermen to move forward.
Meredith McKinley of Via Partnership, which has assisted with many public art projects in the U.S. and Canada, often doesn't see the art she helped bring to fruition once it is installed. For her, the Shaw Park project presents a unique opportunity.
"This is a project I expect to have a great sense of pride in," McKinley said. "Not only because it's in my community, but it's not often I get to work with such a great artist and be able to go and see it and bring my children."
DeForrest also has been down this road before. She oversaw the project that brought Alice Aycock's sculpture The Uncertainty of Ground State Fluctuations to in 2007.
"It's great when they install it," DeForrest said. "One of the neatest things is when a kid sees it and goes, 'Wow. Look at that.'"

Read This Horse-Crap:
"They pitched well, and we didn't take advantage of opportunities," said Jeff Kent, who drove in the Dodgers' only run. "Yeah, it's the Freeway Series, sellout crowds, and half the stadium were our fans, which was cool. I'm sorry, but the best way we can look at it right now -- because we're big-picture people -- is that it's just three games."
A open letter to Mr. Kent:
As far I could tell, half of the stadium was not Dodgers fans....also may you also recall your fist-pumping base hit in Game 6 of the World Series and what did that lead to? How many errors did you have this weekend, Jeff?
Let me know when you win a big game buddy.
The arrogance of Kent is appalling...and yes, I do not like Jeff Kent.

Last week i got a review comment for my app that it was not working in 5800 XP music. After the latest updrade in OVI store, only those who purchase app can write reviews. i don't want to purchase my own app so contacted the person via email and resolved the issue. He was happy about the support and said he will write a comment about the support. After the upgrade review comments doesn't stay (see my thread on review comments deleted) and by the time my client logged into ovi store he didn't see his comments. He sent a harsh mail to me saying that i have deleted his comment because it was negative. I again explained him the scenario and sent link about my previous thread and then he understood the issue. Now again i recieved a mail from him and he says the system doesn't allow him to post more than one comment.
Now can you see how many problems with this review comments.
1. Publishers are not allowed to comment on reviews.
2. Review comments gets deleted automatically.
3. Only one review comment per purchase.
I don't know when we will recieve fix for all these but atleast i thought to record it here so someone someday from OVI will look into it.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency issued a final rule raising all hydrocodone combination products to a class II schedule from class III, where class I indicates the highest potential for abuse and class V the lowest. The change will place greater restrictions on hydrocodone combination products, including requiring written prescriptions that cannot be refilled. The final rule takes effect on Oct. 6. Last year, HHS formally recommended DEA raise hydrocodone combination products to the class II schedule. Pure hydrocodone products are already class II (see BioCentury Extra, Oct. 24, 2013).
