Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The manager of Louisiana's Superdome is recommending that dome officials have an engineering study done with an eye toward changing the stadium's emergency power systems.
Doug Thornton says that idea has been in the works since well before the Super Bowl -- when a partial power outage put half the dome on emergency backup power for more than half an hour.
Thornton's comments Wednesday came during a meeting of the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District board.
Thornton noted that a weakness with the current system is that it's designed to keep electrical systems operating during an emergency evacuation -- not during a temporary outage when crowds remain in the building.
That was evident during the Super Bowl outage, when the game was suspended for 34 minutes in the third quarter.

Mayo Clinic in Minnesota has been recognized as one of the top Orthopedics hospitals in the nation for 2014-2015 by U.S. News & World Report.
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint, keeping the head of your upper arm bone firmly within the shallow socket of the shoulder. A rotator cuff injury can cause a dull ache in the shoulder, which often worsens when you try to sleep on the involved side.
Rotator cuff injuries occur most often in people who repeatedly perform overhead motions in their jobs or sports. Examples include painters, carpenters, and people who play baseball or tennis. The risk of rotator cuff injury also increases with age.
Many people recover from a rotator cuff injury with physical therapy exercises that improve flexibility and strength of the muscles surrounding the shoulder joint. Severe rotator cuff injuries, involving complete tears of the muscle or tendon, may require surgical repair.
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that hold the shoulder joint in place and allow you to move your arm and shoulder. Problems occur when part of the rotator cuff becomes irritated or damaged. This can result in pain, weakness and reduced range of motion.

Report on the Foreign Policy of the Czech Republic 2000
29.05.2002 / 12:22
The full text of the Report is available on Google books.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has prepared the second summary Report on the Foreign Policy of the Czech Republic, this time for the year 2000. It submits to the reader a detailed review of the activities of the state in the sphere of foreign policy. It enables the reader to assess the way the Government has been applying its policy statement of August 1998 and its Concept of the Foreign Policy of the Czech Republic, which it approved in February 1999 and which was endorsed by the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic in June 1999.
Foreign policy plays a major role in the policy of each state, the Czech Republic notwithstanding. Demands placed on Czech foreign policy were particularly great in 2000 since that was the time the basic political and security outline was created alongside the conditions for the favourable progress of the Czech Republic in the 21st century.
The foreign policy of the Czech Republic was oriented towards factors and forces which support peace, stability, security, order, and those that can be foreseen and ensure continuity. In this respect it has scored a number of positive results. "The Report on the Foreign Policy of the Czech Republic for the year 2000" provides concrete testimony to this effect.
Jan Kavan
Deputy Prime Minister of the Government
and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic

Match report
Everton moved up to fifth place in the Barclays Premier League as a 3-2 victory at Goodison Park left opponents Swansea City winless in eight matches.
Leighton Baines, Romelu Lukaku and Ross Barkley were on target to secure a 11th home league win for Roberto Martinez's men this season, moving them above Tottenham Hostpur, who host Southampton on Sunday.
Baines opened the scoring with a penalty, maintaining his 100 per cent record from the spot in the Barclays Premier League, only for Wilfried Bony to pull Swansea level before half-time. Lukaku and Barkley found the net early in the second half to take the match away from the visitors and leave Swansea head coach Garry Monk still searching for his second win since succeeding Michael Laudrup. Ashley Williams pulled a goal back in stoppage time, but it was not enough for Swansea, who will be looking nervously over their shoulders towards the relegation zone.
The hosts began well and could have opened the scoring as early as the seventh minute. Seamus Coleman played a neat one-two with Lukaku and rolled a cross to Barkley, but the midfielder skewed his effort wide of goal. Baines made sure Everton did not have to wait long to move ahead as he emphatically converted a penalty following Chico Flores' foul on Barkley after 19 minutes. John Stones released Barkley with a cross-field pass out of defence, and the 20-year-old headed straight for goal before being clipped by the Spanish defender just inside the area.
Swansea drew level on 32 minutes after Wayne Routledge showed vision to find Angel Rangel on the right of the penalty area. Rangel fired a low cross into the six-yard box and Bony was there to tap home. Pablo Hernandez went close to giving Swansea the lead two minutes before half-time, with a free-kick that took a deflection to wrongfoot Tim Howard but the ball rolled narrowly wide.
After Sylvain Distin had missed a chance to put Everton back in front early in the second half, the hosts soon restored their lead as Lukaku fired home on 53 minutes. The Belgium forward found compatriot Kevin Mirallas, who played an inviting cross into the six-yard box for Lukaku to pounce at the near post.
Barkley made it 3-1 five minutes later following some poor defending from Swansea. Mirallas was again the architect as his corner enabled the unmarked Barkley to convert a simple header.
Bony had a chance to narrow Swansea's deficit just after the hour, but the Ivory Coast forward saw his header palmed away by Howard, before Coleman completed the clearance. Howard was again on hand to deny Hernandez in the closing stages, but there was nothing he could do to stop Williams' injury-time header from a right-wing corner.
Everton manager Roberto Martinez: "In the first 45 we were too open. We changed that mentality after the break, won the ball in good positions and used possession well. In the second half, Tim Howard was really bright on a couple of occasions and he didn't deserve to concede twice.
"You're not going to be able to win fantastically well in every game but you always need to find the margins to win matches. I'm very pleased for many reasons, particularly because of the performances from some of our younger players.
"I wish Swansea well and the best of the luck but today was a big game for both sides and we needed those three points. Without being at our best, we got an important win – our eighth home win in a row."
Swansea head coach Gary Monk: "If I thought I wasn't doing the right things then I'd hold my hands up. If you asked the players who see how hard I work, I think they'd say I'm doing the right things. I'll be judged on my results but until I'm told differently I'll continue to work as hard as possible."
"When you come to places like this, there's always a period where the opposition has some pressure, and you have to manage that properly.
"You have to get through those periods unscathed, you have to dig in, make the right decisions and we didn't do that in a five-minute period in the second half and it cost us. And it gave us too much of a mountain to climb. After that we had a few chances and if we hadn't given them such a lead we would have been able to come away with something."

Kimi Raikkonen may have been quickest in Bahrain practice, however, the Finn reckons his Lotus "didn't feel particularly good" on Friday.
Strapping on the medium compounds midway through the second practice on Friday afternoon, Raikkonen shot to the top of the timesheets with a 1:34.154.
The Lotus driver's advantage, though, was slim as he was just 0.030s up on Mark Webber while both Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso were within two-tenths.
"It didn't feel particularly good today, the car, I think there's improvements to be done," said the 33-year-old.
"The lap time was pretty OK so obviously I made some mistakes - especially in the last corner - so we lost quite a bit of time but hopefully we can improve the feeling a bit for tomorrow so we will see what we can do.
"It's not 100 percent where we want to be but the lap time seems to be more or less there so we have to improve and then I'm sure we can do better lap times."
Raikkonen's running on Friday ended with a long stint on the medium Pirelli compounds.
After 13 laps, asked to push for more from his Lotus team, Raikkonen responded that the tyres had already "gone." He did, however, still put another three laps on the rubber.
Asked whether he was surprised about the tyres lasting so long, he told ESPNF1: "Not really, we do what we feel at the time is the right thing.
"Sometimes the tyres go away and then it's pointless, or your set-up is not right and then it's a bit pointless to run a long run if you know that there's something wrong.
"So today we were just running a bit longer but it depends really how it goes."

|One of the most heavily re-written episodes ever, this was originally a murder mystery story for Worf, but the discovery in question was that warp drive was destroying the fabric of space. It was to feature lots of flashbacks and voiceovers in film-noir style, never used before on TNG. First the ecological angle was lost, then Worf was replaced by Crusher, then a more usual structure was adopted, then at the last minute Guinan was added because this was the only slot Whoppi Goldberg was available for.

The Qualification Round for next year's EuroBasket has been as exciting and challenging as most expected.
Even heavyweights like Serbia, the silver-medal winners in 2009 and 2010 World Championship silver medalists Turkey have found the going tough.
Israel, who have all but clinched their spot for the EuroBasket with six wins and three defeats, have had an uncomfortable ride this summer.
Arik Shivek's side lost its first two games, falling at Montenegro and then at home to Estonia, yet rebounded with enough victories to effectively put them in Slovenia next year.
Only an extraordinary defeat of 89 points or more at Serbia on Tuesday night, the last for the Qualification Round games, would keep the Israelis from playing at a EuroBasket for the first time since the event was held in Rome in 1991, where there were only eight teams in the Final Round.
Serbia and Turkey, meanwhile, need to win on Tuesday (Turkey are at home to the Czech Republic) to be absolutely sure of competing at next year's EuroBasket.
Bogdan Tanjevic, the Turkey coach, admitted after his side's 79-69 grind-it-out win at Portugal: "We are psychologically tired and worried about the next game."
And that's for good reason because the Czechs beat them in the first meeting by 18 points.
Serbia Face Decisive Game Against Israel
With their place in Slovenia virtually secure, one might think the Israelis could relax mentally.
But the win/loss percentage has an effect on the rankings for next year's tournament so Israel are thinking about only one thing in Belgrade.
"We can win in Serbia, even though this game has become really significant for them," Israel's Lior Eliyahu said.
"They will hit the ground running and it won't be easy to play there. Nevertheless, we are entering the game with the goal of winning it."
For Serbia (5-4), there are a few scenarios that can unfold.
If they win against Israel, they're going to Slovenia next year.
If they lose, and Estonia beat Iceland, then Serbia are eliminated and Estonia advance to the Final Round.
If Serbia and Estonia lose, then Serbia will have to wait and see if they are among the four best third-place teams to advance to Slovenia.
The Blues are unlikely to have sharpshooter Marko Keselj and defensive juggernaut Ivan Paunic because of injuries, while point guard Milos Teodosic is expected to be available.
Serbia head coach Dusan Ivkovic isn't interested in tie-breakers.
"We have prepared with only one objective," he said, "to win against Israel.
"You need to be mentally ready, get the triumph and fulfill the main goal, to qualify for the EuroBasket.
"Israel have a very good basketball team and are especially dangerous in transition. They run well ... The main creators of such games are (Alex) Tyus, and (Yogev) Ohayon.
"We must stop them, and also find a balance in our attacking game, to have a good shot selection."
Shivek probably slept much better on Monday night than Ivkovic.
The Israelis won the first meeting on 28 August, 89-76.
"We are in a good position, Shivek said, "but we want to end the campaign in a good way.
"We are going to face a team in trouble, but this is a good team with a decorated coach.
"We will need to cope with the pressure and considering their situation, it is going to be a real sporting battle."
Poised to take advantage of a Serbia slip in Group A are Estonia (5-4), the team that has not only won in Israel but beaten the Serbians in Tallinn.
They go up against Iceland in their last Qualification Round on Tuesday night.
In The Hunt For One Of The Last Five Tickets
Also still in the hunt for places at the EuroBasket are Austria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bulgaria, Latvia and Sweden.
The Austrians are 3-4 in Group C and assured of finishing third, but it remains to be seen if they will be among the four best third-place teams.
If any record does not do justice to a team's performances, it's that of the Austrians.
They could very easily be 5-2 heading into their clash with Croatia.
"We believe in our chances," Austria coach Nedeljko Asceric said.
"We have to play courageously. My players will give their all (at Croatia), I am convinced."
Bulgaria (4-4), Azerbaijan (4-3) and Sweden (3-4) are all in Group B and each have a chance of finishing second.
Azerbaijan play at group winners Germany and Sweden are playing in Luxembourg.
Sweden coach Brad Dean expects Germany to do his team a favor.
Should Germany win, and Sweden win, the Swedes will finish second as they have a better goal differential in their games with Bulgaria and Azerbaijan.
"Germany is playing a televised game at home in a crowded arena and will have their sponsors there," Dean said.
"In addition, they are playing to go undefeated through qualifying and thus get a more favorable ranking before the draw of the EuroBasket.
"On top of all this, they have Svetislav Pesic as a coach. In such a situation, there is no coach I'd rather have as a coach for Germany than Svetislav Pesic."
Latvia (4-3) will seal their place at the EuroBasket with a Group D victory at Romania, though, a defeat by a small margin would also likely be good enough for them to play in the Final Round as one of the best third-place teams.
In Group E, Belgium can seal their place at the EuroBasket with a victory at Albania. Otherwise, they would hope to claim a spot as one of the four best third-place teams.

Deep in the wild quagmires down South, the locals fear a mysterious, foul-smelling creature. Hold your breath and plunge in with the MONSTERQUEST team to find the beast!
- Skeptics and believers get equal time to make their case.
- Hot, sticky and full of monsters: sounds like MonsterQuest paradise!
- Monsters lurk among us - or do they? Get closer to the truth than ever before!
From the lochs of Scotland to the forests of America's Northwest, MONSTERQUEST sets out to get to the bottom, once and for all, of our most persistent and compelling creature stories. All we know of so many monsters are campfire stories, blurry films and grainy photographs, so this fascinating new series takes a fresh look at the legends and seeks new, reliable evidence. Open-eyed historical research and real scientific analysis set the stage for groundbreaking field work: high-tech expeditions to the home turf of legendary monsters. If MONSTERQUEST can't find them, nobody can!
In pursuit of a legendarily malodorous creature, the MonsterQuest team lets bloodhounds do the smelling for them.
The endless swamps of Florida and Louisiana hide a million secrets, and the most spectacular of them all could be a stinking, seven-foot-tall beast known as the Swamp Creature. Locals fear the shaggy, putrid beast they've nicknamed the Skunk Ape but also feel a proud affection for the critter.
In this episode, MonsterQuest employs bloodhounds for the first time to track the elusive beast. Showing they'll stop at nothing in pursuit of the truth, the team spurs the hounds with sexual ape pheromone chips. Scientists clarify the team's findings and a satisfying romp in the swamp is had by all.
Journey with MONSTERQUEST to the marshy underbelly of America to discover the SWAMP BEAST!

|We discover that Bashir was replaced whilst still wearing an old-style uniform. So presumably the Bashir we have seen on the station has been a Founder since at least the uniform changeover. For one thing, this means he had ample opportunity to kill Sisko during "Rapture" and blame it on the brain damage he was suffering. For another, it means that he let another changeling die in "The Begotten", when linking with it might have saved it. I imagine both of these things would have made the other Founders pretty mad.
When a message from Enabren Tain is transmitted through the wormhole, Garak and Worf are dispatched to see if he is still alive. But they are quickly captured and imprisoned on a penal asteroid by a Dominion invasion force gathering on the far side of the wormhole...

Tuesday, July 30, 2013, 09:33 PMFROM ARMADILLO: Alright my babies...I was NOT in Sweden with our boys in pink and black. But the road report must go on, and the following report arrived in the proverbial electronic plain brown envelope for your reading enjoyment. Here you go!
Posted by Administrator
Posted by Administrator
Since the 'Dillo has, over the years, done so much to help the TS support team out (a lot of it grunt work that he was never asked to perform) it seemed only right that we on the staff return the favor. So here you are Terry (and by extension all his babies), the Not Armadillo official TS blog Road Report for the final TS show of the summer of 2013, Skogsjet* Festival in Sweden.
*-No one, and I mean NO one (more on that later) seems to know how to pronounce the name of this little shindig, so you are hereby warned to look for the variations—and feel free to vote for your favorites.
OK, let's see…how does he usually do these things? Le Dillo usually throws up the set list first and then let's everybody hang for a few days for anything resembling usable information. So off the top of my still jet lagged head, here's what I think the boys played Saturday night (will probably need correcting):
1-You Can't Stop R+R
2-Shoot 'em Down
3-Stay Hungry
4-The Beast
5-The Kids Are Back
6-We're Not Gonna Take It
7-I Believe in R+R
8-The Fire Still Burns
9-The Price
10-We're Gonna Make It
11-Under The Blade
11-Burn in Hell (Full Drum Solo)
12-I Wanna Rock
Come Out And Play
I may have the order totally wrong, but I think the songs are right.
OK, now what does he usually do next (after making us wait forever, that is)?
Right, he acts out the delusion that he's the Armadillo Faulkner, and describes the locale like some sort of dirtbag travelogue. And by describe, I mean describe in minute detail; pushing back the fun stuff by paragraphs and often full chapters.
[Note: The original idea here was to show Terry how he SHOULD do these things, as in "cut to the chase." But upon mentioning to some TS peeps that this fill-in was planned, there emerged a consensus that the column should be used to demonstrate to Armadillo just how annoying his ancillary prose can be. Apologies in advance for you, the readers, having to wade through the next section. But know that it's length and absurdity is purposed to help us ALL in the future. So without further ado, here now the faux road report, in the style to which we have become accustomed, meaning with further ado.]
Friday Morning, 7/27/13. After a 2 ½ hour van ride from Stockholm airport, through the scenic, idyllic, and occasionally Ferrari-strewn Swedish countryside, band and crew arrive safely in Kopping, a heretofore unknown little hollow in the southeast of the nation, which turns out to be a truly lovely and welcoming mini-metropolis; replete with electric trolleys and shopping within walking distance of the hotel. Both hotels, actually. The one we were booked into, and the one we actually stayed in since it had air-conditioning. (Apparently global warming has caught this part of Scandinavia unprepared).
But I digress—deliberately (see above) and not for the last time. See how much fun it is Terry?
Notice while I said 'the band and crew arrived" I mentioned nothing about any luggage or gear. That's because DELTA apparently stands for Don't Expect Luggage To Arrive. Not a single bag, backpack, guitar case or duffel has managed to make it out of the cargo bay to accompany us. My kingdom for a guitar pick!!
Have I digressed recently? No? We'll then, let me get to it.
Kopping is not just the picturesque hamlet of several paragraphs ago. Based on our on-stage experience of Saturday, it appears to be a favorite summer vacation destination for many of Northern Europe's moths. They were everywhere; in infinite varieties, colors and sizes, drawn by the lights of the stage and one assumes the moth brothels (mothrels?) doubtless within flitting distance. Now, this is the spot in the Report where I was gonna absolutely punish you all with a three page treatise on Lepidopterism. It was gonna be epic payback. You get it Terry? Epic? But it turns out I have actual work to do and cannot devote the research hours required to getting the dissertation right. And I refuse to mail in satire. So take a deep breath and we shall continue post-commutation. [Are you following all these references and tortured syntax? If so, see a doctor immediately].
Oh, one more thing on the moths…Spoiler alert-one memorable show moment was AJ catching a moth twixt drumsticks, a la Mr. Miagii. But I'm getting ahead of myself (he wrote with full self-awareness, not to mention unfettered contempt for his target audience of one).
I wonder what fettered contempt is.
Yet even more on Kopping. It also serves as the principal city for the region that the Skankjet Fest resides in. And fun fact—said region apparently is the glass blowing capital of all Sweden.
While I would love to just leave that little nugget out there as an Armadillo-esque annoyance, there actually is some entertainment value here. Among the gifts the grateful promoter presented to the band Saturday was a 14" clear glass wine decanter, in the shape of a cock-and-balls. I'm not making this up. Curved, thick, circumcised (I guess they're not worried about the Nazis coming back any time soon) and millennium-appropriate in its lack of pubic hair, said phallus came with the festival name (Sploogejet) inscribed right on it. Truly a conversation piece; although apparently no band member wished to have that particular conversation take place in their own house.
So the gift was offered to me. And a tempting offer it was; but upon reflection I realized my apartment already houses a substantial collection of phalli, both glass-blown and otherwise, and this addition would be merely overkill.
And there was a further complication, in that this particular object d'art seemed ill suited to withstand the rigors of Delta's renowned baggage handlers (see above). So a command decision was made. I would just leave the thing in the room next to the maid's tip. Problem solved.
Or not; for on Sunday morning prior to checkout, the realization hit that perhaps this little bit of largesse might not be received in the spirit in which it was given. It might even get me into hot Swedish water if there existed a particularly unfortunately worded anti-sexual harassment statute in the land of Abba. [Speaking of Abba, Kopping is absolutely swimming in billboards for the Abba Museum, conveniently located in…Stockholm! Go figure.]
Anyhoo, back to our story. So Sunday morning a warning is passed (as euphemistically phrased as possible) to the front desk of the hotel. Oh, Oh. The hotel. Oh. I almost forgot. It turns out the hotel is owned and run by a woman who was an exchange student for a full year in the home of Eddie Ojeda's first cousin. And they still correspond. Small world, wouldn't wanna clean it.
Whaddaryoutalkinaboutanyway you A.D.D.-riddled sadist?!?!?!? What does this have to do with the road report???
Oh right, the road report. Sorry. So anyway, back to the glass cock-and-balls.
So we tell the desk vaguely what's in store for the lucky chambermaid, and their response is…"Can we have it? We'll put it on display in the lobby! Oh, and could you please have the band autograph it?"
Ummm…okay, I guess.
So Arma's babies, if you're ever in Kopping, Sweden, keep your eyes peeled for what is doubtless the most unique TS artifact in the world! No lie.
Okay, so let's see, got in Friday, no luggage, etc. etc. etc., picturesque, moths, glass johnson autographed before leaving Sunday, Eddie's cousin yada yada yada…
Yup, that about wraps it up for this edition of the road report. See you down the road.
I now return you to Armadillo. I hope you found reading this diatribe as tiresome as I did writing it.
Well, there you go, my babies! Don't blame me....blame high airline rates! Perhaps our anonymous writer will feel generous enough to tell us if the boys ever got their instruments and how the show actually was! wow. Am I really THAT bad? This is Armadillo, wishing you a safe holiday until we all return on the road once more!

- transient grating (1) (remove)
- A Detailed Treatment of the Measurement of Transport Coefficients in Transient Grating Experiments (2007)
- This thesis treats the measurement of transport coefficients in transient grating experiments and is organized into 3 parts. Part 1 provides a brief review of the thermodynamic-phenomenological theory relevant for a correct description of the Soret effect. It comprises the formulation of the first law in open systems, the calculation of the entropy production, and the derivation of the phenomenological equations. This part is based on the books by de Groot and Mazur and by Haase and contains also some own results. We have explicitely derived a relation between reversible work and dissipation function, if heat and mass are exchanged reversibly and irreversibly between the two homogenous phases of a non-isothermal heterogenous system. Moreover we have discussed in detail, whether Onsager coefficients are invariant against shifts of enthalpy or entropy zero. Furthermore some comments on recent literature work have been made, since thermodynamic principles are not always correctly incorporated. In parts 2 and 3 we have treated the measurement of heat, mass and thermal diffusion in transient grating experiments. In part 2 we have presented a two-dimensional model to account for the role of heat conducting walls in the measurement of heat transport and Soret effect driven mass transport in transient holographic grating experiments. Heat diffusion into the walls leads to non-exponential decay of the temperature grating. Under certain experimental conditions it can be approximated by an exponential function and assigned an apparent thermal diffusivity D_{th,app} <D_{th,s}, where D_{th,s} is the true thermal diffusivity of the sample. The ratio D_{th,app}/D_{th,s} depends on only three dimensionless parameters, d/l_s, k_s/k_w, and D_{th,s}/D_{th,w}. d is the grating period, l_s the sample thickness, k_s and k_w the thermal conductivities of sample and wall, respectively, and D_{th,w} the thermal diffusivity of the wall. If at least two measurements are performed at different d/l_s, both D_{th,s} and k_s can be determined. Instead of costly solving partial differential equations, the unknown parameters can be obtained by finding the zero of an analytic function. For thin samples and large grating periods, heat conduction into the walls plays a predominant role and consequently the concentration grating in binary mixtures is no longer one-dimensional. Nevertheless, the normalized heterodyne diffraction efficiency of the concentration grating remains unaffected and the true mass and thermal diffusion coefficient and the correct Soret coefficient are still obtained from a simple one-dimensional model. All theoretical predictions have been tested by experiments on pure and binary liquids over a wide range of grating periods and sample thicknesses. Excellent agreement has been found in all cases. A new transient grating technique for the measurement of heat, mass and thermal diffusion in liquids has been introduced in part 3. Similar to holographic grating experiments, a temperature grating is created in the sample. Thermal expansion transforms the temperature into a refractive-index grating, which is read by diffraction of a readout laser beam. In a multicomponent mixture an additional concentration grating is formed by thermal diffusion driven by the temperature gradients of the temperature grating. Differently to laser induced dynamic grating experiments we use Joule heating instead of optical heating. For that purpose we have built cuvettes which have a grating of transparent conducting strips on the inner side of one of their windows. If heated by an electric current a temperature grating will build up in the sample. Both, the heat equation and the extended diffusion equation, have been solved in two dimensions to allow for quantitative data analysis. Our apparatus and method of analysis have been validated by measurements of heat, mass and thermal diffusion in pure and binary liquids. Heat diffusion can be correctly determined as was shown for pure toluene, pure dodecane and the symmetric mixture of isobutylbenzene-dodecane. Mass and thermal diffusion was studied in the three symmetric mixtures of dodecane, isobutylbenzene and tetralin. The obtained diffusion and Soret coefficients agree with the literature values within the experimental errors. Uncompensated transient heating effects limit the resolution of the experimental technique.

OM! That is got to be the cutest valentine ever!
Well this is the first post I have done with pictures, outside the "Cookie Madness" forum....Lets see if I can do this. For Valentine's Day I made Julie's cootie catchers for both my little boy's classes! Both classes togther, that was 50 total! We did a lot of folding and cutting. I used DaphadillyArt's Rock Candy Kit, and they turned out great! They were a big hit in both classes. I would definantly make them again.
Ok, I can't figure out how to post just straight pictures, so this is what I came up with.
I had a lot of fun!
Super late, but after being sick, I'm finally trying to get caught up on my pictures and blogging.
These were for my 3yr old's preschool class so to play the top we used syllables since they can't really spell yet. (1 for frog, 3 for dinosaur) then numbers cause they can count really well. then there's little candy heart graphics on the inside and the winner gets that color heart from the box of candy hearts each kid got. They had lots of fun with them!
LOL! You just put me 35 years back in time. We were playing with these in school, but yours are much much more pretty.
Hugs Britta, Denmark
How adorable! I so loved those when I was in elementary school.
OMGosh! This is just the CUTEST!!! I was just talking about these last week! I remember making them in school..... uh... a "few" years ago!

'The lowest form of humour'
- English writer Samuel Johnson in reference to the use of puns
The above phrase (substitute 'humour' for 'horror') often comes to mind when speaking to fans of horror regarding (arguably) its most oft maligned sub-genre: the slasher film. At times, it's hard to refute that feeling or in some extreme cases, the outright hatred of it. Even though, by and large, zombie films have had a recent run of the generic, slashers continue to be the red headed step child of the horror genre. Why is that? Before we answer that question, a brief run down of its history is essential.
Let's go all the way back to 1960 when a little film premiered that would pretty much set the blueprint for all slasher films that followed: Psycho. Sure, some films had slasher elements such as 1960's Peeping Tom, but Psycho was what really gave the sub-genre a formula with which to start: take a socially maladjusted male (or female), a traumatic event which he/she is never able to shake, a disguise to hide behind, an assistant to this soon-to-be vehicle of death (AKA weapon of choice), and a group of people that antagonize him in some way which in turn, sets him/her off. Sure, certain elements have changed over the decades, with some being reflective of the times. But with Psycho, a formula was born.
After 1978's defining Halloween, it was pretty much all downhill from there. OK that's not quite fair but we did see everything from copycats to outright rip-offs, Friday the 13th, Offerings, Edge of the Axe to name a few; to sleazed out affairs like Aerobicide (AKA Killer Workout), Iced, and Evil Laugh. Movies were churned out en masse and this style of film was beaten like a dead horse. But hot damn I couldn't get enough of them. They're like horror's equivalent of a box of chocolates: you always know what you're going to get (yes, I just quoted Forrest Gump on a horror blog). It's easy fun that relieves you from the mind numbing likes of horror's more serious and exhausting fare (I'm looking at you Martyrs!). Even with the recent resurgence of the sub-genre, and its strict adherence to 'the rules', I can't get enough of these films, good or bad.
So I ask you, why is this sub-genre so oftentimes dismissed? Lack of style or substance? Too paint-by-numbers? The films are mostly shit? What say yous?
