Grey's Anatomy Review: It's All About Protocolby Nicole Golden at . Comments
"This Is How We Do It" started out slowly but ended in true Grey's Anatomy fashion.
Jackson and Lexie became more serious, and Lexie told Mark that she is seeing someone else. He figured out it is Jackson at the end of the episode. Do you think that there will be some drama between Mark and Jackson in the next episode?
Can Lexie and Jackson ever have anything more than a physical relationship?
Alex moved into a trailer in the parking lot to gain an advantage in the race for chief resident. The residents are all competing to get on the Chief's new trial, but the Chief decided that Owen will choose the chief resident.
When Cristina found out, she realized that he could not pick her. Clearly, these events will cause some tension in Owen and Cristina's marriage. Do you think they can weather the storm? And why would the Chief put Owen in charge? Finally, who do you think will actually win the position?
Adele tested positive for early onset Alzheimer's disease but was in denial. The Chief was desperate to get her into Derek's trial. Derek would not pull Adele off the waitlist and compromise his whole trial. Derek and Meredith had a new trial patient who dropped out so that her son could be with his boyfriend, thus sacrificing her chance at a medical miracle.
When the patient dropped out, Adele was given the trial test but passed by one point. The Chief explained to her that she has Alzheimer's but just has not progressed enough yet.
Adele got extremely upset and broke down in front of Derek and Meredith. Do you think Derek will find a way to include Adele in the trial despite the fact that she passed the test? Do you think that the Chief will be able to handle his wife's decline after everything he has been through?
Callie was extremely excited for her baby shower. (We still don't know if the baby is a boy or girl. Any guesses?) Mark and Arizona fought over what activities to have at the shower, and Arizona became annoyed when Mark seemed to know Callie better than she did.
Do you think that Arizona will ever stop being jealous of Mark and Callie's close relationship? Do you think Mark will ever give Arizona and Callie a chance to strengthen their relationship without his interference?
Nurse Eli and Bailey got into a fight about their roles in the hospital while treating a patient. Later, they made up outside when Eli said that he gets to be the man in the relationship when they are not in the hospital. Do you think Bailey was right to get annoyed with Eli? Will they last when they have yet to conquer their power struggle?
The Chief performed an experimental surgery for his new diabetes trial before receiving permission from the FDA. The surgery was successful, and then the FDA granted the waiver. Do you think that the Chief did the right thing? Who do you think he will select to work with him on the new clinical trial?
April was still dating Stark but ended up cancelling their date when everyone teased her and said she was bound to lose her virginity to him. Stark admited that he never wanted to just be friends and seemed sad when April told him that was all she wanted. At the end of the episode, April watched the movie that she and Stark were supposed to view together alone on her couch. Do you think she actually has feelings for Stark? Do you like him more now that he seems to be a real human being?
Lucy asked Meredith about Alex, and Meredith explained what he had gone through in the past couple of years. Upon hearing how complex Alex is, Lucy ended up sharing a beer with him on his trailer stoop. She then kissed him. Can Alex and Lucy be a successful couple on the show?
Henry was brought into the hospital with chest pain. Teddy seemed concerned and stayed on the case. When on medication, Henry admitted that he wanted to be with Teddy. The Chief heard the whole admission. Teddy told the Chief she did not have feelings for Henry, but the Chief still had Cristina perform the operation on the mass near Henry's heart.
Henry began to crash in the OR, and Cristina told Teddy to stop acting like a scared wife. After the surgery, Henry again admitted to Teddy that he had feelings for her.
She told him it would just be a good story if they worked out but that she did not feel the same way about him. Do you think that Teddy made the right decision or should she give Henry a chance? He seems to genuinely care about her.
Callie decided to take Arizona to a bed and breakfast for the weekend. When Mark texted Callie during the drive, Arizona got angry and told Callie not to contact him because it was their weekend alone together. The episode ended with Arizona proposing to Callie before they got into a serious car accident.
First of all, do you think that Callie will accept the proposal? Do you think the baby will be okay? Also, how do you feel about such a tragic event leading into the musical episode of Grey's Anatomy? Leave your comments and discuss below.
Some of the best Grey's Anatomy quotes from this week ...
Bailey: Stalking a man while he's in the restroom.
Avery: I'd clean the restroom if he'd let me on his trial.
Cristina: I'd live in it. | permalink
Henry: You're my wife—my hot wife. | permalink
Henry: I've been thinking lately, and I think...um...I think I've figured it out...why all of your dates go so bad, so, so bad, laughably bad, and it's not your fault—it's mine because I'm not the guy on them with you. | permalink
Meredith: I can't get over the fact that you know what onesie-decorating is.
Mark: I've been boning up. That's what you do for the people you love.
Arizona: Oh, bite me, Mark. | permalink
Meredith: Renegades, rule-breakers, gangsters with scalpels. This is the way we like to think of ourselves. It makes us feel badass, sexy. Problem is it's not exactly true. At heart, we're rule followers, sheep. We don't break protocol. We follow it to a "T." Because if we don't follow protocol, our patients die, and then we're no longer badass. We're just bad. | permalink
Alex: You're gonna screw your way to the top. I'm impressed. | permalink
April: I am not taking my pants off for Stark. | permalink
Cristina: Oh, screw beautiful. I'm brilliant. If you want to appease me, compliment my brain. | permalink
Lucy: So this Karev guy. You're actually friends with him? That's real? | permalink
Meredith (about Alex) : You're missing a lot. He had a girl go crazy on him. His wife almost died and then she walked out on him. And then he was shot and almost bled to death in an elevator. He's been through a lot. So the Neanderthal thing is just—it is an act. Well-executed one. | permalink
Arizona: You're not the Callie whisperer. And I'm not a monster for finding baby showers annoying. Everyone woman who's ever had a pregnant friend hates them. It's like a wedding—the bridesmaids always want to strangle the bride. It's practically a rule. The only one who's not normal here is you for acting like you're enjoying this. | permalink
Stark: But that's the thing, you know. I never wanted to be just your friend. | permalink
Adele: Don't look at me like that...like I'm damaged good. I'm still me. I'm still here. | permalink
Eli: Inside the hospital you're the man. That's the protocol, but outside I'm the man. I am the man. Me. Now you can call me cro magnon or old fashion, but that's not going to stop me from taking you home to my bed tonight and showing you what kind of man I am. Now how's that? Does that protocol suit you? | permalink
Arizona: I mean he gets most of you. The straight you, the Catholic you, the girl who loves baby showers. I just get, you know, the gay you, which is really only about twenty minutes a night... | permalink
Meredith: It's every doctor's dilemma. Do you play it safe and follow protocol? Or take a risk and invent a new one? There can be reward in risk. There can also be fallout. Still you need to book the system every once in a while. Bet big. And when you get the results you want, there's no better feeling in the world, but when you don't... | permalink
Damn it! She is perfect for Alex! I wonder why this story begins... when she leaves us ... ohh no ... :( :( they're so cute togheter!
Terrible review. seriously, the worst I must have ever read. but what a great episode
Never crazy about the idea of Callie and Mark sharing a baby. His character needs a life of his own. He's a hot guy and the way the shows written makes him look like a loser having to share a woman in a lesbian relationship. Mark Sloan deserves a better story line
Gonna say this for the last time ever... Shonda made it clear a number of times via Michael Ausiello, Entertainmnet Weekly and E! News about the fate of the Callie's Baby!!! He/She will NOT die... Shonda said it a long time ago that she created these story lines so that the show can have a story over and above Meridith and Derek... I have also said before that Mer/Der had the first five seasons, their love story is epic and it hasn't finished but if they made them the focus of season six and seven then the writers would only write them fiting with each other and then that would have been a problem for all the fans who want the Calzona-Mark-Baby storyline to end.
Furthermore I don't see whats to complain about:
Season 6 Main story lines were derek trying to get the chief job then becoming chief, mer adjusting to life as a chiefs wife, realising that she is ready to have children among other things. Season 7 opener was her and derek trying to cope with the shooting and everything that happened as a result... everything else is just bit stories in between that sometimes is pushed to the forefront to created a well rounded, wholesome medical drama. I am NOT a Calzona-Mark fan. I LOVE EACH AND EVERY CHARACTER on the show and love everything that has been done until now(except the ghost-hallucination sex scene) and will watch Grey's Anatomy till the last episode. I will not knit pick and think that I can write the story any better.
What is up with calzona always getting disaster after an incredible intense time between them. Arizona goes to Africa, then Callie does not go . Arizona comes back and wins Callie back and then Callie drops a bomb that she is having Mark baby. Now.. Callie propose and they get in a car accident. Can't they be happy for at least one episode. It's always disaster with them, when they are the second most stable couple on the show that actually looks like they really love each other. Please Shonada.. give them a break..PLEASE!
@Dr.CerrenoMD You still believe Shonda Rhimes & actors like Dane, KMK, etc...after all lies they already said, especially this season? I totally agree with @Géraldine there! :-) So, yes the baby will survive further to the surgery, thanks to Addisson (if not, why to have called her?!) and yes, Callie/Arizona will end to get "married", Arizona/Mark could be even friendly towards each other (Jessica Capshaw mentionned this info to TVLIne) but again, don't hope that this lovely picture Shonda is going to draw keep going like until the next season, not in Grey's Anatomy, no in ShondaLand! I'm pretty sure that the threesome Callie/Arizona/Mark will end working but it will be only during short time and in the final, something will come and break this perfect family...you know, like when you work a lot on something to make it work and when you finally you reach your goal and enjoy the moment, something comes and ruins everything in a snap of a finger! The whole "threesome & the baby" is painful since the beginning of the year and fans don't stop complaining (well a majority of them indded) and Shonda Rhimes knows that perfectly though her tweeter, mails and letter she gets daily, forums and even the press ... The reactions are pretty unanimous to request the end of this bad written storyline! So, do you really think that Shonda is enough crazy to risk everything (her reputation, the ratings) but the 8th season too, just to keep living her model of modern family? NOPE!
She had a plan in her her head, to show that a baby can be raised by a threesome, even if it is often difficult at the beginning but yes, it can work at least.
However, for her show - and if she doesn't want to ruin her next season immediatly again -, she has to drop it with a minimum of class! And the only reason for which Callie/Arizona/Mark stick together since the 7x13 is the baby.
If you retire the baby, the "threesome and a baby" storyline is over immediatly and like this, you don't touch to your 3 characters who can have their own storylines -> in accepting Arizona's proposal, Callie is supposed to have made a choice between Arizona & Mark : Arizona above Mark and I guess that in the future, she will try her best (well better that what she did until the accident and her death experience) to show to her spouse that she is important to her, inviting Mark to stop invading their intimicy or space! :-)
What good writing and a heart wrenching scene on Grey's Anatomy last night by the chief's wife, Adele (Loretta Devine) concerning her onset of Alzheimers. Some of the best acting I have seen on t.v. You need to tell your mate everyday that you love him/her because the day may come that you don't even know them. That goes for all your loved ones as well. My loved ones - I love you.
I hated the ending. Having Callie & Marks's baby die is an awful decision (if that happens) It will not bring Callie & Arizona closer, I think Callie will have so much resentment toward Arizona ( because she never wanted kids from the get-go) that she will throw her to the curb. Mark wanted to be a grandfather so badly to his daughter's baby & was devastated when it was put up for adoption. So, he too, deserved a chance at being happy. Even if it was shared parenting. IF the story line goes this way, I won't watch Grey's again..no matter how much I like Kevin Mc Kidd.
Poor review. Did we even watch the same show?
Arizona is like the cutest thing! Love how she says "Marry me!"
Just for once, i hope Callie comes to her senses and say "I love you" to Arizona. She has not said this since before the Africa thing! And she has to say YES to the proposal! YAY! BTW, I know Mer is the lead but this tv show is also about a group of doctors. Yes, i see your concern and maybe Shonda should give MerDer more screen time together as a couple, but this doesn't mean Calzona should leave.
Plus, i think a few epis back, Meredith had her full hour show, didn't she? She also has her baby SL, Derek his Alzheimer trial,... And Cristina was the center for several epis in the beginning of this season.
So I think Calzona can have their own SL...And i love Calzona so i wanna see it.
Not everyone is following the show just because of Mer (who i also love, don't get me wrong)

I went to get an apartment and he asked how I acquire income and I told him I was in the adult industry and I proved it by giving him my agencies phone number. Can he deny me this apartment because he doesn't like the job I have even if I make well over 3 times the rent asked
Yes, he can deny you the apartment because he does not like your job.
Next time you go apartment hunting, just show the lessor the part of your bank statement showing that you have the funds in the bank. If they need to speak to your boss, have your boss contact them directly and limit the conversation to what your income is. If the lessor asks anyone what you do, the answer should be that you are in "the entertainment industry" or "commercial retail" - whichever fits what you do best.

One of the hardest parts of the writing process is getting honest feedback. Close friends and family think nothing of lying in order to spare your feelings about as little as a poem. So they'll sooner tell you that your baby is ugly than that they didn't like the manuscript you've agonized over for two years.
Music blogger and playwright Richard Fulco has recently released his debut novel, There Is No End to This Slope. The book is equal parts love letter and bitter reproach to New York, as seen through the eyes of his struggling protagonist, John Lenza. Richard talks about the unexpected challenges of completing his first novel while balancing work and family.
There is statistical evidence showing that adult women read more novels than men, attend more book clubs than men, use libraries more than men, buy more books than men, take more creative writing courses than men, and probably write more works of fiction than men. If women suddenly stopped reading, the novel would nearly disappear.

Breakthrough in high-temperature cancer treatment
Researchers have found injecting iron particles into cancer tumors and using a magnet to move them, heats the tumor and is an effective cancer treatment.
As reported in the April issue of What Doctors Don't Tell You, high fevers and medically induced hyperthermia have been linked with cancer remission for decades. Now a new study by researchers at Dartmouth provides even more evidence for how heat therapy works, while also proposing a new therapy that could make it even more effective.
Researchers at Dartmouth University injected iron nanoparticles into tumors growing in mice and then used a magnetic field to generate heat from the iron. This nanotechnology strategy allowed them to maintain a constant temperature of 109.4°F (43°C), which was critical to the response that followed. Heating colon and melanoma tumors caused them to grow more slowly or even disappear. Although higher temperatures were even more effective at stopping tumor growth, at 109.4°F, an immune response was triggered that made the mice resistant to the cancer.
When they were injected with the same type of cancer cells a month after the heat treatment, they didn't develop any new tumors. Since it is nearly impossible for a surgeon, chemotherapy drug or radiation to remove or kill every single cancer cell in the body, activating this immune response could be very helpful for protecting cancer patients from recurrence and enhancing the effects of other treatments.

Federal grand jury subpoenas Toyota
Published: July 20,2010
Tags: automobile industry, courts, product quality, product safety
TOKYO — Toyota Motor Corp. said today it has been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury in New York to submit documents related to problems with rods that connect a vehicle's steering system to its front wheels.
The world's largest automaker, which is trying to repair a reputation damaged by recalls of millions of cars worldwide since October, said the federal grand jury issued the subpoena to its U.S. subsidiary in late June.
Toyota said it was the company's second subpoena from a federal grand jury — a panel that can determine whether evidence exists to bring criminal charges.
"The company and its subsidiary are sincerely cooperating with authorities on the probe," Toyota said in a statement.
Defective steering relay rods led Toyota to recall 4Runner sports utility vehicles and T100 pickup trucks in the United States in 2005.
Toyota said the grand jury's subpoena did not specify vehicle models and it was not clear that the subpoena was linked to the 2005 recall, which came several years before safety lapses erupted into a global recall crisis late last year.
The automaker has recalled more than 8.5 million vehicles worldwide since October, including six million in the U.S. alone, to address the possibility of unintended acceleration and to fix a braking problem in its Prius hybrid.
In February, Toyota was subpoenaed by a U.S. federal grand jury seeking documents related to unintended acceleration in its vehicles and the braking system of its Prius hybrid.
Earlier this year, Michigan's attorney general also asked Toyota to submit information on the recent U.S. recalls, Toyota spokeswoman Ririko Takeuchi said. She declined to elaborate.
Toyota paid a record $16.4 million fine for being slow to recall vehicles with an accelerator pedal problem and is facing hundreds of state and federal lawsuits. Congress is considering an upgrade to auto safety laws in the aftermath of the Toyota recalls that began in October.
In Tokyo, Toyota shares fell 2.6 percent today to close at 3,055 yen before the subpoena announcement was made.

Received the table in excellent condition, however I am very disappointed that it did not "fold" as advertised. In order to store or close, tools have to be used to remove the legs and then it can be stored. Not what I expected. Table is on my terrace and after the first rainstorm, the stain that was used on this table dripped all over my pavers and was difficult to remove. Although the table is sturdy and nice looking, it ultimately was not what I expected.
this is a great table for the price. the description is a bit misleading in the fact that it does fold, but not without hunting down the allen wrench and removing some screws. this is NOT a quick fold table, however, if you keep the allen wrench handy, it is an excellent extra table for parties. it can then easily be stored along the wall in a garage or shed for the winter.
So far the product has caused me to pay too much, since Overstock reduced the price by *** right after I ordered it, and an incorrect sleeve nut will require replacement of the fastener in order to assemble this table. I have yet to seal the finish (recommended by other reviewers) before I assemble it, which looks easy enough. The center hole looks big enough for most any umbrella, but you may have to shim it to avoid wobble of the umbrella.
I assembled this table myself. However, it is not a folding table and will not be a foliding table unless I disassemble one side of the legs. Since I specifically ordered it because it was advertised as a "folding table", this is disappointing.
I wanted a table that wasn't too big so as not to overwhelm our deck. We seat four comfortably for a meal, or you could seat 6 for lighter fare or just socializing. It was easy to put together, and as others have mentioned, you would need to unscrew the leg for it to fold. We rubbed mineral oil on it and hope that will preserve the beautiful color.
I love my table. I put it together myself---a 56 year old female. Initially, I struggled with the legs but after studying the photo on the box, I was able to understand the directions and put the legs on the table. Very sturdy and looks great on my patio!

Spectra corresponding to overlapping grating orders are focused onto a multi-waveband focal plane array in order to create spectral images of a scene simultaneously in multiple wavelength regions. The blaze of the grating is chosen so that all spectral orders are dispersed with high grating efficiency. Such an approach extends the spectral range of disperse spectrometers to several octaves of wavelength, while preserving the compact packaging and cryogenic requirements of conventional (one octave) instruments.
1. A grating spectrometer apparatus for simultaneously producing multiple spectral images of a scene on a multi-waveband focal plane array, typically used for imaging "m" wavebands simultaneously (m=1, 2, 3, . . . ), with the spectral images corresponding to multiple, overlapping grating orders, the apparatus comprising:
a. fore-optics (305) to collect incident light from a scene of interest and image it onto an intermediate slit aperture (306);
b. means to collimate the light (307) collected by said fore-optics for incidence upon a blazed diffraction grating (302), said blazed diffraction grating having a blaze wavelength chosen to fall near the center of the range of dispersed wavelengths;
c. means to re-image (303) said collimated light beam reflected from said blazed diffraction grating onto a multi-waveband focal plane array having m discrete wavebands (304);
d. a bandpass or long-pass filter (308) positioned between said collimator and said diffraction grating to eliminate spectral orders greater than the m-th order that fall within the detector response curve.
2. A grating spectrometer apparatus for simultaneously producing first and second spectral images of a scene on a dual-waveband focal plane array, the spectral images corresponding to two overlapping grating orders, said apparatus comprising:
a. fore-optics to collect the incident light from a scene of interest and image it onto an intermediate slit aperture;
b. means to collimate the light collected by said fore-optics for incidence upon a blazed diffraction grating, said blazed diffraction grating having a blaze wavelength chosen to fall near the center of the range of dispersed wavelengths;
c. means to re-image said collimated light beam reflected from said blazed diffraction grating onto a dual-waveband focal plane array; and
d. a bandpass or long-pass filter means positioned between said collimator and said diffraction grating to eliminate spectral orders greater than the second order that fall within the detector response curve.
3. The spectral imaging apparatus as in claim 2, in which the first grating order spectrum is in the long wavelength infrared spectral region and the second grating order spectrum falls within the mid wave infrared spectral region.
4. The spectral imaging apparatus as in claim 3, in which the first grating order spectrum spans the wavelength range from approximately 7 to 11 microns, and the second grating order spectrum spans the region from approximately 3.5 to 5.5 microns, thereby exploiting the atmospheric transmission regions for a down-looking, space-based sensor.
The conditions under which this invention was made are such as to entitle the Government of the United States under paragraph l(a) of Executive Order 10096, as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force, to the entire right, title and interest therein, including foreign rights.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates generally to imaging spectrometers and, more particularly, to a dispersive spectrometer design combined with a dualband focal plane array that extends the range of wavelengths that can be efficiently sampled for hyperspectral imaging applications.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Infrared grating spectrometers employ a grating to disperse infrared wavelengths over one or more columns of pixels to achieve separation of the wavelength elements. Because grating efficiency (the ratio of dispersed to incident radiation, within a small wavelength interval) is high over only an approximate "octave" range of wavelengths near the "blaze" wavelength (e.g., from 7 to 14 microns for an 11 micron blaze), multi-octave spectroscopy has previously required multiple grating, camera mirror, and focal plane array (FPA) "channels." Wavelength separation for the channels is achieved with optical beamsplitters (referred to as the "traditional approach" hereafter). Since higher performance, long wave infrared (LWIR) spectroscopic applications benefit from cryogenically-cooled FPAs and fore-optics, penalties associated with this traditional approach are large. For space applications in particular, the "heat lift" requirement of the space cryocooler needs to be carefully restricted, and is negatively impacted by the higher cooling requirements of the traditional approach.
Dispersive spectrometers using a prism as the dispersion element also suffer from different degradations in efficiency with wavelength, including loss of transmittance in anti-reflective coating and deviation from optimal values of angular dispersion. These limitations also limit prism spectrometers to slightly over one octave in non-degraded performance. A dual-channel grating spectrometer following the "traditional approach" is shown in FIG. 1. The fore-optics 104 collect the incident light and focus the beam at the field stop where a spectrometer slit is located. The collimator 105 forms a collimated optical beam for incidence on the beamsplitter 106 and then onto the dispersion elements 107, either a prism (shown) or a grating. The optical beamsplitter 106 can be either a wavelength or non-wavelength selective type. If wavelength selective, a dichroic reflects shorter and transmits longer infrared wavebands at near unity efficiencies. In a non-wavelength selective beamsplitter, a partially silvered mirror reflects and transmits equal amounts of the two wavebands. Two focal plane arrays 108, one for shorter and one for longer wavelengths, are required.
The invention described here achieves dual-octave (and multi-octave, as a logical extension) spectroscopy with high grating efficiency using a single dual- or multi-band FPA and grating element. The approach therefore results in compactness and simplifies the cooling requirements. Further, the traditional approach requires good alignment (both translational and rotational) among the various grating and FPA pairs for both ground and space applications. This requirement is particularly challenging to accomplish at cryogenic working temperatures.
Each of the approaches described above provide simultaneity in the collection of all wavelength elements, thereby "freezing" variations in target brightness, either intrinsic to the target, or those resulting from atmospheric or range variations. The resulting target spectrum, with wavelength elements collected simultaneously, is much less affected by these variations than are spectrometers that collect spectral data in a sequential mode.
The present invention is a compact and efficient, very broadband, grating spectrometer for hyperspectral imaging (HSI) applications. The design employs new-technology infrared focal plane arrays that image simultaneously in two wavebands (see, for example, Reine et al., "Independently Accessed Back-to-Back HgCdTe Photodiodes: A New Dual-Band IR Detector", Journal of Electronic Materials, Vol. 24, No. 5, 1995). These "dualband" focal plane arrays were originally conceived for multi-waveband imaging applications. This invention employs a dualband focal plane array in a novel, dispersive spectrometer design that extends the range of wavelengths that can be efficiently sampled. This approach allows efficient operation over twice as many octaves in wavelength as a conventional grating spectrometer that employs a single waveband infrared focal plane array. It also allows two overlapping grating orders (spectra) to fall onto the dualband focal plane array. These orders are separated by the dualband capability of the focal plane array. The grating operates with comparable efficiency in both grating orders with grating efficiencies similar to that obtained for the "blaze wavelength." The result is a compact spectrometer with broad spectral range that has significant advantages for space operations through reduction in size and cooling requirements.
FIG. 1 shows the "traditional approach" for a dual-channel grating spectrometer.
FIG. 2 illustrates the spectral response curves of an example dualband (MWIR & LWIR) FPA.
FIG. 3 illustrates the conceptual basis for the proposed invention.
FIGS. 4(a)-(c) show spectral image data collected with an N�N pixel dualband focal plane array.
The dual-octave grating spectrometer of the present invention is based on the relatively new dualband FPA technology. An example of a dualband FPA based on the HgCdTe material system was developed by Raytheon Infrared Center of Excellence (Goleta, Calif.). The focal plane array images simultaneously in the medium wave infrared (MWIR) and LWIR on spatially-collocated centers having response curves with cut-off wavelengths near 5 and 10 microns. It achieves this capability through unique growth (via molecular beam epitaxy) of LWIR HgCdTe detector material on MWIR material. When operated in a "back-illuminated" configuration, the MWIR photodiodes appear "stacked" on top of the LWIR diodes from the perspective of incoming photons. The detector multiplexer is also of specific dualband design, with separate indium interconnect bumps, amplifier circuitry, and charge integration capacitance at each pixel site. The pixel format and pitch of the dualband FPA are 256�256 and 60 microns, respectively. FIG. 2 shows dualband FPA spectral response curves for a typical pixel. In this figure, the spectral cutoff wavelengths are approximately 6 and 12 microns. Each pixel on the N�N pixel FPA is a site for such dualband detection.
The dual-octave grating spectrometer is based on the dualband FPA technology described above combined with a diffraction grating. Spectra from two overlapping grating orders of the diffraction grating are allowed to fall onto the FPA (see FIG. 3). Fore-optics 305 collect the incident light and focus the optical beam at a field stop where a spectrometer slit aperture 306 is located. A collimator 307 then forms a collimated optical beam 301 for incidence upon the diffraction grating 302. The collimated input beam 301 is reflected off a grating 302 for which two grating orders are allowed. A camera mirror 303 re-images the beam onto the dualband focal plane array 304. The dualband FPA is shown in a face view rather than its actual edge-on mounting. The lower order spectrum is dispersed by the grating 302 between two wavelengths, λ1 and λ2, across one dimension of the dualband FPA; the dispersed wavelengths correspond with the longer of the two wavebands of the FPA. The blaze of the grating is chosen such that the lower order spectrum falls within the "useable" range of grating efficiencies. Wavelengths between λ1 /n and λ2 /n (for n an integer greater than 1) are also allowed to disperse across the FPA. These dispersed wavelengths correspond with the shorter of the two wavebands of the dualband FPA. Similar values of grating efficiency can be expected for the higher order spectra, since there is a direct correspondence between the angles of incidence and diffraction between the two orders, and the blaze condition is satisfied for both λblaze and λblaze /n. As would be the case for a conventional grating spectrometer, higher spectral orders that fall within the detector response curve are eliminated with long-pass or bandpass filters 308.
FIG. 4 shows the output of the dualband FPA. The spectral image represents data collected by an N�N pixel dualband FPA. One dimensional cuts through the image at two arbitrary locations are shown at one spectral and one angular position. The "x" coordinate of the FPA in FIG. 4(a) represents wavelength and the "y" coordinate is the angular position. FIG. 4(b) shows the output of relative signal strength vs. wavelength for a fixed angular position. FIG. 4(c) shows the relative signal strength vs. angular position for a fixed wavelength in each grating order.
Two obvious variations of the proposed invention follow. First, when infrared FPAs that image simultaneously in 3 and more wavebands become available, spectroscopy over the corresponding number of octaves becomes a straight-forward extension of the concept described above. For example, a three-band, photovoltaic FPA, with wavelength cutoffs near 4, 8, and 16 microns, could be the basis of a highly efficient, 3-octave spectrometer operating in the 2-4, 4-8, and 8 to 16 micron spectral regions. Secondly, a dual-octave application need not involve contiguous wavelength regions. For example, spectroscopy in the wavelength regions from 2 to 4 and 8 to 16 microns could be realized with a dualband FPA having its first wavelength cutoff between 4 and 8 microns, and its second cutoff beyond 16 microns. In this case (in accordance with the convention in the paragraph, above) "n" is greater than two, and the two spectral orders are non-contiguous. Such an embodiment of the proposed invention would likely need a spectral notch filter that blocks wavelengths from λ2 /n to λ1. Such notch filters can be obtained as custom products from commercial, infrared spectral filter manufacturers.
The proposed invention achieves a result similar in certain respects to a cross-dispersion grating spectrograph (CDGS). The CDGS also separates the spectra of contiguous, overlapping grating orders (which, as already mentioned, enjoy the same grating efficiency as the wavelengths near the grating blaze wavelength), but with a prism located "downstream" of the grating and oriented with its dispersion direction perpendicular to that of the grating. Advantages of the dualband FPA grating spectrometer over the CDGS include increased spatial coverage (since, for the CDGS approach, part of the spatial direction on the FPA is used for the higher grating orders), and that the spectra are dispersed along a single direction on the dualband FPA and do not exhibit the curvature that obtains for CDGS spectra.

November 28, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) - The House Ethics Committee says it has appointed a panel to investigate whether Democratic Rep. Shelley Berkley used her position to protect her family's financial interests, giving Republicans additional fodder to question her conduct leading up to November's election.
The Nevada Republican Party filed a complaint last year saying that her efforts to keep a kidney transplant program open at University Medical Center in Las Vegas constituted a conflict of interest because her husband, Dr. Larry Lehrner, is a managing partner of a company that contracts with the hospital to provide kidney care.
The Ethics Committee had earlier said it was reviewing the matter and would announce its course of action by Monday.
Berkley's campaign said it was pleased with the committee's decision "to conduct a full and fair investigation."

(Page 4 of 8)
There are regulations governing the relationship between Realtors and mortgage companies. Is that a concern for you?
We have to pay market value for the space we rent. We can never give or receive compensation for a referral. And we don't. We stay so far away from that. There are nuclear ramifications if you violate that. We have an entire compliance department that does nothing but monitor our relationships. The real estate partnership is about creating proximity for us.
Are you concerned things will slow down when rates go up?
We've assumed every year that rates would go up dramatically that year. We have a 20-year vision, not a short-term refinance opportunity. That's why we focus on purchase. We want to be in the portion of the market that is sustainable. If rates go up moderately, our business has not been affected. If you want to move or your wife wants a new house, a quarter-point or half-point isn't going to stop you. If rates go up dramatically, that's probably only because the U.S. housing market has spiked, inflation has set in and prices are up, which menas buying has been strong. Rates don't usually go up in a vacuum. Will it effect us? Sure. But nearly as much as those guys focusing 80% or 90% on refinance. That business will dry up overnight.
What's the next step for your growth?
In North Carolina, Raleigh is the biggest market we need to tackle. We're expecting to go from $2 million a month in production to $25 million a month this year in Raleigh. We're excited about Raleigh. Nationally, in 2012 we've put beachheads in about 25 markets. We have a national partnership with Zip Realty and Real Estate One Group. We are in about 70 Keller Williams offices around the country. So this year it's expanding from those beachheads and taking ground in the major markets in the U.S. We're in pretty much every major NFL city. We just need to take more market in those cities, especially on the West Coast.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Whoa, Buddy!
Holly's life too short, but Rainbow musical too long, too happy
This broad-strokes musical hagiography of Buddy Holly may have some Rainbow Stage patrons asking: When exactly is dinner served?
The production is as good as it can be. The dinner-theatre vibe is an unavoidable byproduct of the play itself, an artless, forcibly jubilant celebration of the life of a doomed pop star.
Buddy -- The Buddy Holly Story
Rainbow Stage
To July 4
Tickets: $49.50-$59.50
Two and a half stars out of five
Written by Alan Janes and first produced in London's West End in back in 1989, Buddy is credited with launching the phenomenon of the "jukebox musical." If it is unique, it's because it hews close to the life of Buddy Holly, as opposed to subsequent jukeboxers (Mamma Mia!, We Will Rock You, Rock of Ages), which spun out original stories utilizing select playlists of hit songs.
Janes' book follows the Lubbock, Texas-born Charles Hardin "Buddy" Holley (not actually "Holly") in his efforts to become a recording star from the age of 19 to his tragic death at the age of 22.
Lubbock is emphatically a country-music town, and Buddy (played by an energetic Jeff Giles) is told in no uncertain terms that any other style of music is unwelcome. "Folks out here get real offended by that rock 'n' roll," he is told by Lubbock DJ Hipockets Duncan (Carson Nattrass). Elsewhere, we hear a psychiatrist labelling Holly's musical genre as "a communicable disease."
But Buddy has a dream. In the first act, his turbulent career path takes him to his historic concert in Harlem's Apollo Theater, where he gains quick acceptance from black audiences.
By the second act, we see Holly fall madly in love with publishing-company receptionist Maria Elena Santiago (Kimberly Rampersad), proposing marriage within five hours of their first meeting, a union that takes the sting out of Holly's subsequent breakup with his band, The Crickets.
It all leads to that fateful concert in the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, where Holly and fellow performers Big Bopper (Gerrit Theule) and Ritchie Valens (Curtis Brown) would subsequently take a plane to rock 'n' roll heaven.
As directed by Ray Hogg, Rainbow's production pushes the rote airbrushed fantasy of the '50s with roller skates/pressed dungarees/A-line skirts/platinum blond hair up the wazoo. Set designer Sean Mulcahy's two-tiered turntable set elegantly serves multiple settings and functions.
Performances are mostly solid from a cast whose members frequently qualify as quadruple threats -- singing, dancing, acting and playing instruments.
At its best, the musical does compel a consideration of Holly's pop brilliance. The fact that he wrote and recorded all these rock standards before he made his 23rd birthday is truly impressive.
But coming in at a ponderous three hours (including intermission) and featuring some 33 musical performances, the musical is too completist for its own good.
It gives us too much time -- time that may be spent distractedly contemplating this production's intermittent non sequiturs:
Why doesn't the Big Bopper have any hair?
What's with the redundancy in the title?
Why on earth is the climactic music performance Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode?

In two rulings, the Supreme Court gave major victories to same-sex couples. In the first, regarding the Defense of Marriage Act, it overturned a ban on federal benefits for same-sex married couples. In the second, on Proposition 8, a California case, the court dismissed an appeal. This means same-sex couples will be able to get married in that state.

Why performances decrease in this way???? UML does not support SMP, so it can use just one processor. This is the major slowdown case in your comparison. Compare make -j2 on the host and on the guest: there will still be some slowdown, but not such an high one. Possibly on the guest make -j1 could be better (it would be interesting). Also, the user time is less on UML. The fact that total time is higher is probably due to running with -j3 on a uniprocessor machine, and the fact that the user time is less is probably due to using gcc 3.3 rather than 4 (I seem to recall gcc 4 is slower in compilation than gcc 3). > UML is in skas3 mode. > Command line is "linux ubd0=rootfs.debian ubd1=swapfs.debian > eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.1.110 mem=1000M" > > Please, tell me what can I do...

Global appliance maker BSH Bosch und Siemens Hausgeräte GmbH reported that 2012 was another record-breaking financial year.
At a press conference in Munich on June 21, 2013, the company reported a strong financial year for 2012, with the first half of 2013 looking even a little stronger--this despite the ongoing economic uncertainty in some European markets.
Dr. Kurt-Ludwig Gutberlet, chairman of the BSH board of management, said that the transition to the new Chairman, which was previously announced in April, will happen three months earlier than had previously been planned.
Dr. Karsten Ottenberg will succeed Gutberlet as chairman of the BSH board of management effective July 1, 2013.
