Only 2 coats are needed. I find more than that can be a little clumpy. Stays on until you takes it off. Overall good product for a higher end product.

This mascara is one of the worst I've ever used. Drug store mascara works better than this. With a name like "They're real" you'd think it would be giving you a false lash look, implying that you aren't wearing any. Well believe me, people won't even question you. This mascara is messy,too wet, and provides no volumizing or lengthening properties. Do not even waste your money on it. The They're Real eyeliner is also a joke. Very disappointed with the products. The one thing I did like was the brush, it really picked apart the lashes. If you want a natural lash I guess it's an ok but.

Skin: Oily, Tan, Warm

I tried this in a sample to see if it lived up to its hype. It did not. I found the formula to be somewhat sticky, and it made my lashes appear spidery and clumpy after only a few coats.

This mascara is one of the worst I have ever tried! It was so damaging to my lashes and flaked off halfway through the day. I was surprised how hard it was to remove because it had no problem coming off all over the place on its own! For something so pricey and raved about on YouTube and the like, I thought it must just be me... But my mum agreed that it was certainly not worth the money. I've used much better drugstore mascaras for half the price. Disappointing!
Age: 25-29

Favorite mascara so far! Applies beautifully without spidery look. I get so many compliments on my lashes with this mascara. Easy to remove without damaging lashes.

I like this mascara. ..but there are drug store mascaras that I like much better. there brush is good and I really like the packaging.. but the formula isn't that great.

Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Blond, Relaxed, Medium

I have purchased this mascara twice and quite frankly both times I have wondered why I have repurchased. When first using the the mascara you have to really scrape it on the side to remove excess from the tip of the applicator and can go on quite thick but it hasn't been clumpy for me personally I just have to use another applicator brush (an old brush works perfectly) to separate my lashes. It gives of a great eyeliner effect.
The problem is I find the product is at its best when its running out... I think its time to find a new mascara.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Curly, Medium
Eyes: Hazel
It's good to know I'm not the only one unhappy with this product, because I keep hearing raves about it, but it sucked. Maybe it works for other people, and that's great, but this is one of the worst mascaras I've ever tried. Most of my drugstore ones work better than this.
I should probably start off by saying my eyes hate mascara. Nearly everything runs and smudges. But this was especially bad. Usually I use products multiple times before reviewing, but I refuse to ever use this mascara again. When applied, it didn't really lengthen or thicken or anything. It just turned my eyelashes black, which is not what I was going for. It also clumped (but nothing an eyelash comb can't fix!) Anyways, this didn't even last an hour and a half on me. Mascara was just everywhere. It was bad.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Other
Absolutely NOT worth the money or the hype.
This mascara suffers the same as all the Benefit mascaras I have tried, in that it flakes and smudges like mad. Ironically it is really difficult to remove and I lost eyelashes trying to take it off, even with make up remover!
As far as results, I would say there is nothing at all special about this, its just a standard black mascara that lengthens and builds like a million others on the market.
The price is outrageous for such a disappointing product, if you are planning to try this, do not bother - save your money or spend it elsewhere.
There are much much better mascaras available for half of the price.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Awful. Simply awful. The formula tends to clump, never dries completely (has a royal icing-like consistency), and then starts to flake off later in the day. I really can't express how awful this product is.

Nutrisystem says 'decisions ... could further reduce earnings,' shares drop
NutriSystem Inc.'s stock price fell Friday morning after the company released third-quarter results that met analysts' estimates for earnings but not for revenue and lowered its earnings and revenue guidance for the year below analysts' estimates.
Shares in the Fort Washington, Pa., provider of weight-loss products and services were down 97 cents, or 10 percent, at 11 a.m.
Nutrisytem (NASDAQ:NTRI) earned $2.6 million, or 9 cents per diluted share, in the third quarter. Excluding one-time charges with an after-tax value of $2 million, or 7 cents per diluted share, related to the write-down of a supplier advance and the company's management transition, it earned 16 cents per diluted share in the quarter. That was the average estimate of four analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. In the third quarter of 2011, NutriSystem earned $6.1 million, or 21 cents per diluted share.
NutriSystem's revenue in the most recent quarter was $81.3 million, down from $85.6 million. The average estimate of two analysts polled by Thomson Reuters was $91.5 million.
In Nutrisystem's earnings press release, David Clark, the company's chief financial officer, said it expects to earn 15 to 20 cents per diluted share before one-time charges in 2012. That's well below the average estimate of three analysts polled by Thomson Reuters, which was 45 cents per share.
Clark also said Nutrisystem "will be evaluating a range of decisions that could further reduce earnings for both the fourth quarter and the full year."
Nutrisystem's revenue for 2012 will be the same as or slightly less than the $401.3 million in revenue it generated last year, Clark said. That's below the $420 million average revenue estimate of two analysts polled by Thomson Reuters.

Iraqi oil arrives in Turkey, but official consent needed for distribution
03 January 2014 [12:10] -
Crude oil from Iraqi Kurdistan has started flowing via a new pipeline to the Turkish Mediterranean export hub of Ceyhan but will not be shipped to world markets without the consent of Baghdad, Turkish Energy Minister Taner Y?ld?z said on Thursday, Today's Zaman reported.
Y?ld?z hopes a deal can be reached this month for exports to begin, he told a news conference in Ankara. Flows through the pipeline would start at 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) and rise to 400,000, he said. Turkey signed a multi-billion-dollar energy package late last year with Iraqi Kurdistan (KRG) under which the semi-autonomous region plans independent energy exports via Turkey.
Kurdistan could eventually export some 2 million bpd of oil to world markets and at least 10 billion cubic meters per year of gas to Turkey. Its bid to export oil and gas independently from Baghdad has infuriated officials in the Iraqi capital, which claims sole authority to manage Iraqi oil. Turkey has been working to get the central government on board before exports start. "The flow of crude oil from Iraq has begun. It is being stored. It will not be exported without the consent of the Iraqi government," Y?ld?z told the news conference.
The Turkish-KRG deal has significance for major oil companies as well as for the Kurds and Turkey, which stand to benefit from domestic supply and onward westward export through Ceyhan. Kurdistan has struck deals with ExxonMobil, Chevron and Total among others as it seeks to develop its energy industry. Ankara has set up the Turkish Energy Company (TEC), a state-backed entity which has struck partnership deals with Exxon and will be Turkey's counterparty in dealings with Kurdistan.
Y?ld?z visited Baghdad in December for talks with Iraq's Deputy Prime Minister Hussain al-Shahristani, who has long opposed Turkey's courtship of the Kurdish region. Baghdad says Kurdish efforts towards oil independence could lead to the break-up of Iraq, but Turkey has repeatedly said it respects Iraq's sensitivities over territorial integrity and that increasing oil revenues will help the whole of the country.

A handful of giggling Japanese women wearing devil's horns and cat costumes gather under a giant neon-orange pumpkin outside a Tokyo shopping mall.
View video
A Halloween street party?
"Ah, no, this is cos-play," says 20-year-old Saori, referring to costume role-play, or the Japanese past-time of dressing up as their favourite animation movie character.
"Halloween is different," Saori says, giggling as she tugs at her hooded cape with cat ears.
The cult around fancy dress, and Japan's love of quirky festivals and eccentric trends in general, may go towards explaining why Halloween has turned from an obscure foreign celebration into a popular cultural event here.
"Japanese wear suits every day, so at the weekend they like to be different," says Saori's friend Akiko.
The two point the way to the real Halloween party, which is taking place a few streets away. Amid inflatable ghosts and pumpkins in all shapes and sizes, hundreds of spectators crowd around a singer wearing a pumpkin-shaped hat.
In fact, the street party in Kawasaki, on the outskirts of Tokyo, is just a warm-up to Halloween on October 31.
The big bash happens on the Sunday before Halloween, when thousands of Japanese witches, vampires, devils and ghouls fill the streets of Kawasaki in a giant street parade.
Similar extravaganzas are erupting all over town. Tokyo Disneyland has been throwing Halloween fetes since mid-September starting even earlier than theme parks in the United States.
Unlike in the United States, most Halloween activities in Japan appear to target adults rather than children.
Mainstream clubs advertise "Fetish Halloween" and "Erotica Halloween" parties. Fashion retailers decorate their windows with slogans such as "Play! Party!! With cute trick!".
Japan's passion for Halloween extends a long tradition of festivals that liberate ordinary Japanese from the extreme control they face in everyday life, according to Patrick William Galbraith, a researcher at Sophia University's Japanese Studies faculty.
"The matsuri, or festival, might be seen as a communal experience that allows behaviours outside rigid behaviours and etiquette, one reason this social pressure release valve has been so crucial in Japan historically," he told Reuters by email.
Galbraith sees costume role-play as characters from manga comic books and "anime" films as a similar escapist fantasy.
In addition, Halloween and cos-play encourage another popular Japanese pastime: enthusiastic consumption.
Shopping malls in other Asian countries, too, have picked up on this aspect of Halloween. Around this time of the year, cobwebs and jack-o-lanterns adorn shops and bars in Hong Kong, Manila, Singapore and Seoul, tapping into a deeper Asian interest in the otherworld that shows through in local festivals for the dead.
Halloween, or All Hallow's Eve, has its roots in Celtic tradition and marks the night before All Saints Day.
Japan also has a celebration for the dead, known as Obon, but many Japanese don't seem to realise that Halloween has a similar meaning. They prefer to focus on the party.
"Japanese people like festivals very much, you see. We even celebrate Christmas, but we don't celebrate Christ, we just enjoy," says Yoshiaki Ei, an affable entrepreneur wearing jeans and a blue long-sleeve T-shirt.
Ei, a father of two, has organised trick-and-treat evenings for children in his Tokyo neighbourhood for the past four years together with other Japanese, American and European families.
"I think that's why Halloween is popular: it has nothing to do with Christ or the church, like other events in Western countries. It's very easy to have fun," he told Reuters.
Last year, Ei dressed up as a huge traffic cone to watch over little princesses and Spider-men trick-or-treating in his street. Some twenty-odd families in his neighbourhood agreed to open their houses that year, and were swamped by more than 500 children. "I hope it doesn't grow more," he said.
As the underground train rolls back into town after the early Halloween party in Kawasaki, two teenagers dressed as what can best be described as gothic nurses check their mobile phones and giggle.
They are wearing white nurse's caps embellished with red crosses and bits of black lace; red-and-black stockings; skull earrings and skirts stitched together from red, white and black rags.
This being Japan, they could be on their way to another Halloween bash, a cos-play event or simply a normal party.

January 1, 2015 - Great quality and color!!!
December 31, 2014 - For the price, I thought this would probably be a silly, cheap throw-away, but it looked cute, so I bought it anyway. I Love this! I got the multicolor, and it is a very tasteful addition to my regular bangles.
September 15, 2014 - I like this bracelet, but I do think it might look better to layer them as opposed to wearing only 1
January 6, 2014 - Very happy with this unique bracelet. I was also happy that it said it was Made by 'Ben', as that is my nephews name :)
October 7, 2013 - I bought the multicolour & would've liked more different colours - however, as a jewellery maker myself, I can only imagine how long it takes to make those recycled beads. I love it & wear it often...congratulations to those who made it!!

Hassan Rohani votes 370. (photo credit:REUTERS/Yalda Moayer)
DUBAI (Reuters) – Moderate cleric Hassan Rohani won Iran's presidential election on Saturday, the Interior Ministry said.
He scored a surprising landslide victory over conservative hardliners without the need for a second-round run-off.The outcome will not soon transform Iran's long tense relations with the West, resolve an international crisis over its pursuit of nuclear power or lessen its support of Syria's president in the civil war there – matters of national security that remain the domain of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.But the president runs the economy and wields important influence in decisionmaking.Rohani's resounding election mandate could provide latitude for a diplomatic thaw with the West and more social freedoms at home after eight years of belligerence and repression under President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who was legally barred from seeking a third consecutive term.Celebratory crowds assembled near Rohani's headquarters in downtown Tehran a few hours before his victory was confirmed."Long live reform, long live Rohani," chanted the throngs, according to witnesses at the scene. "Ahmadi, bye bye," they added in reference to Ahmadinejad, another witness there said.Others flashed the victory sign and chanted slogans in favor of Mirhossein Mousavi, who reformist supporters believe was robbed of the 2009 election by what they say was vote rigging to return Ahmadinejad to office."Mousavi, Mousavi, I got back your vote" and "Mousavi, Mousavi, congratulations on your victory," the crowds shouted."Many people are holding Rohani posters," said one witness in Tehran. "Some are hugging and crying. We are all so happy here. We can't believe there is finally a change."Another eyewitness named Mina told Reuters tearfully by phone: "I haven't been this happy in four years. I feel that we finally managed to achieve a part of what we have been fighting for since the past elections. They finally respected our vote. This is a victory for reforms and all of us as reformists."Israel was skeptical on Saturday night that a Rohani electoral victory impacted the danger of a nuclear Iran. It noted that at the end of the day, the person in charge was Iran's supreme leader, the Ayatolah Khamenei, and not the country's elected president.The Foreign Ministry said, "The president elect in Iran had been shortlisted by the Ayatolah Khamenei, who has disqualified and removed candidates who did not conform to his extremist views."Iran's nuclear program has so far been determined by Khamenei, and not by Iran's president," the ministry said."After the elections, Iran will continue to be judged by its actions, in the nuclear sphere as well as on the issue of terror. Iran must abide by the demands of the international community to stop its nuclear program and cease the dissemination of terror throughout the world."According to a very senior Israeli official, the Iranian nation has signaled to his leader that it opposes the policies that lead to the sanctions against Tehran which made life much more difficult.The official called on the international community to increase the pressure against Iran if it fails to heed the international community's calls for Tehran to halt its nuclear program.Rohani will take up the presidency, the highest elected office in Iran's hybrid clericalrepublican system, in August.Security forces crushed protests following the 2009 election – several people were killed, and hundreds were detained. Mousavi and his fellow reformist candidate are still being held under housearrest.Authorities say the election was free and fair.Iranian authorities and the candidates themselves, including Rohani, discouraged large street rallies this time round to forestall any possible flare-up of violent instability in the sprawling OPEC member-state of 75 million people.Though an establishment figure, Rohani is a former chief nuclear negotiator known for his nuanced, conciliatory approach. He has pledged to promote a policy of "constructive interaction with the world," but no surrender to Western demands for a nuclear suspension, and enact a domestic "civil rights charter."Rohani could act as a bridge-builder between hardliners around Khamenei who reject any accommodation with the West and reformers marginalized for the last four years who argue that the Islamic Republic needs to be more pragmatic in its relations with the world and modernize at home in order to survive.His wide margin of victory revealed a widespread reservoir of reform sentiment with many voters, undaunted by restrictions on candidate choice and campaign rallies and seizing the chance to rebuke the unelected power elite over Iran's economic miseries, international isolation and crackdowns on secular lifestyles.In an apparent move to convey political continuity to both domestic and foreign audiences, Khamenei congratulated both the people of Iran for the high turnout in the polls and Rohani for his electoral success.Rohani's nearest rival was conservative Tehran Mayor Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, a long way behind with less than 16 percent. Other hardline candidates close to Khamenei, including current nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili, scored even lower.Iran's rial strengthened about 4% against the US dollar on Saturday after partial vote tallies pointed to an easy Rohani victory, websites tracking the currency said.Former British foreign secretary Jack Straw, who dealt with Rohani during nuclear negotiations between 2003 and 2005, called him a "very experienced diplomat and politician.""What this huge vote of confidence in Doctor Rohani appears to show is a hunger by the Iranian people to break away from the arid and selfdefeating approach of the past and for more constructive relations with the West," he said before Rohani's victory was declared."On a personal level I found him warm and engaging. He is a strong Iranian patriot and he was tough, but fair to deal with and always on top of his brief."Speaking before the Interior Ministry announcement, Suzanne Maloney, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, said Iran "appears to be on the verge of shocking the world."Rohani's campaign was endorsed by pragmatic former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani after the latter was barred from running by a state vetting body – out of concern, analysts said, that he could prove too powerful a rival to Khamenei.Rohani received another big lift when reformists led by expresident Mohammad Khatami swung behind him after their own lackluster candidate, Mohammad Reza Aref, withdrew to help consolidate the non-conservative vote.In contrast, several high-profile conservatives with close ties to powerful clergy and Revolutionary Guards chiefs failed to unite behind a single candidate, suffering what appeared to be a decisive split in their support base as a result.Rohani rose to international prominence as Iran's nuclear negotiator in talks with Britain, France and Germany from 2003 to 2005 that saw Iran agree to suspend nuclear fuel enrichment-related activities, tamping down Western pressure on Tehran.He left the post when Ahmadinejad came to office in 2005. Tehran defiantly relaunched and expanded uranium enrichment, and there has been no substantive progress in intermittent negotiations with six world powers since then.The upshot for the Islamic Republic has been a punishing expansion of United Nations, US and European Union sanctions, badly damaging its heavily oil-dependent economy and triggering a rise in inflation and unemployment.Tovah Lazaroff contributed to this report.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Instead of watching their season-opening winning streak come to a messy end, the New York Knicks served notice that they can't be counted out in the fourth quarter.
Raymond Felton scored 25 points and New York stayed undefeated by rallying late to beat the San Antonio Spurs 104-100 on Thursday night.
Trailing by 12 with 7 minutes left in the game, the Knicks (6-0) closed on a 22-11 run to remain the NBA's only unbeaten team.
"It shows me that this team is for real," New York coach Mike Woodson said. "We beat a great team tonight — a well-coached team. It's the first time I've ever won in San Antonio, so I feel pretty good about that. It's tough to win here."
J.R. Smith added 17 points, Jason Kidd had 14 and Tyson Chandler 13 for the Knicks, who snapped a nine-game skid in San Antonio. Felton, Smith and Kidd alone outscored the Spurs 26-25 in the fourth.
Tony Parker led San Antonio (7-2) with 19 points and 12 assists. Kawhi Leonard added 16 points and Tim Duncan had 14 points and 14 rebounds.
San Antonio grabbed its largest lead at 89-77 with 7:14 remaining when Tiago Splitter's free throw completed a three-point play. That capped a 13-point run by Splitter in the fourth after he failed to score while playing just a few minutes through the first three periods.
"He had some great minutes in there," Duncan said. "He got himself rolling there for a little while and kind of got us on the board."
Woodson called a timeout before Splitter shot the free throw, and the chaos that ensued was exactly what the Knicks needed.
"I called one timeout, and it was kind of disarray in the timeout," Woodson said. "I was screaming and they were screaming, but we were still in the game."
Kidd then sparked the rally with a pair of 3-pointers that pulled the Knicks to 89-85 with 5:49 remaining.
"He does it every single time," Chandler said. "I said it last game, whether it is a steal or a 3-pointer or something (else), he seems to always get it done."
Smith and Kidd hit consecutive 3s to give the Knicks a 100-95 lead with a minute left.
San Antonio missed seven of its last nine shots and had two turnovers in the final 2 minutes. The Spurs had won 18 of 19 regular-season games against New York.
The late defensive push offset an uncharacteristic start by the Knicks.

Deaths caused by heat will rise to average of 7,000 a year in 2050
However milder winters will mean fewer cold-related deaths
Health Reporter
Tuesday 04 February 2014
The number of deaths caused by extreme heat in the UK will more than treble by the middle of the century as a result of climate change and population growth, experts have said.
Rising temperatures and an increase in the size of the elderly population will mean that more than 7,000 people will die because of the heat in an average year in the 2050s – compared to just 2,000 today.
However, milder winters will mean that a smaller proportion of people will die from the effects of the cold.
The study, published in the British Medical Journal on Tuesday, used historic data on the link between temperature fluctuations and death rates. The authors then applied these associations to projected temperature changes as predicted by the British Atmospheric Data Centre and population growth estimates from the Office for National Statistics.
Days in which the average mean temperature exceeds 20 degrees Celsius will likely treble by the 2050s, said lead author Dr Shakoor Hajat of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), with more than four times as many such days by the 2080s. The population is projected to increase to 89 million by 2080 – by which time over 85s will represent nine per cent of the population, compared to two per cent today.
Regional variations in temperature are likely to persist, with people in London and the Midlands most vulnerable to hot weather, according to the study, which was co-authored by experts working with the Government agency Public Health England.
"A lot of these deaths, both heat-related and cold-related, are occurring in people who are very infirm – mainly elderly people with underlying health problems," Dr Hajat said. "Even if mean temperatures go over 20C we start seeing some heat-related deaths – usually from cardiovascular and respiratory problems.
"As the world warms up it's likely that populations will adapt to some extent, however because of the increased variability [in the weather] that we're expecting and the rate of change in the warming, it's unclear how successful future adaptations will be."
Much of the increase in the number of deaths can be attributed to increases in population size and age, and any increases in heat-related deaths caused by climate change will likely be more than offset by decreases in the proportion of people dying during milder winters.
If the population were to remain the same, but temperatures continue to rise as predicted, there would be 3,000 more heat-related deaths in 2050 compared to today, but 10,000 fewer people dying as a result of cold weather, Dr Hajat said.
However, he added that the increased risk in the warmer months would require the people to adapt their behaviour, always ensuring they remained hydrated by taking in water even when they weren't thirsty.
"We're also likely to see air conditioning prevalence increase in the UK, but inequalities may mean those most at risk may not be able to afford these unless they are subsidised by the Government and rising fuel costs may exacerbate this discrepancy," he said.

Trail of a Terrorist (#2004)
On December 14, 1999, Ahmed Ressam was arrested on the U.S.-Canadian border when an alert Customs agent became suspicious of Ressam's answers to her questions. When the trunk of his car was opened, agents discovered a powerful bomb and a plot for a Millennium attack on America. Ressam said nothing at his trial, but later decided to testify against an accomplice. His chilling testimony revealed his motives, his methods and his connection to an Algerian terrorist group that had already carried out bombings in Europe. Ressam described his training at the Osama bin Laden camps in Afghanistan, where he learned, among other things, how to work with cyanide gas. With access to Ressam's testimony, policy files, officials in the U.S. , Canada and France, correspondent Terence McKenna follows the trail of a terrorist. [56 minutes]

Introduced in the past week in Kansas and West Virginia is the "Health Care Freedom Act" which seeks to ensure the freedom of state residents to choose their own health care providers.
In Kansas, Senate Concurrent Resolution 1626 (SCR1626). In West Virginia, House Joint Resolution 103 (HJR103).
In each state, the proposal is for a state constitutional amendment to ensure that "A law or rule may not compel directly or indirectly any person, employer or healthcare provider to participate in any healthcare system." If passed, the proposal would go to the voters for approval before becoming law.
There are now more than 2 dozen states considering similar legislation, including Washington, South Carolina, Georgia, Ohio, and Florida.
In Arizona, HCR2014 was passed by both the House and Senate and will be on the ballot for approval in November.

Probing the surface adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of catechols on TiO2 by solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

Article: Preparation and Characterization of a New-type Composite Photocatalyst of 3DOM TiO2/Carbon Materials
Chemistry Letters 01/2010; 39(1):44-45. · 1.59 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Nanoscale mapping of adsorption sites for molecules or ions at solid–liquid interfaces has not been explored in detail because of the difficulty in probing both stochastic adsorption/desorption events and heterogeneous surface structures. We report here the application of single-molecule-based super-resolution fluorescence microscopy using a catechol-modified boron–dipyrromethene dye (CA-BODIPY), which serves as a fluorescent reporter, to identify the locations of effective adsorption sites on metal oxide surfaces. Upon adsorption on a TiO2 nanoparticle, individual CA-BODIPY molecules exhibited detectable fluorescence because of the formation of chelating complexes between the catechol moiety and the surface Ti sites. Interestingly, a significant effect of the crystal face on the adsorption preference for CA-BODIPY was found in the case of anatase TiO2 microcrystals in neutral water: {101} > {001} ≈ {100}. In an aprotic solvent such as acetonitrile, however, the opposite crystal face effect was observed; this implies a significant contribution of solvent molecules to the adsorption of organic compounds on specific surfaces. From the quantitative analysis of the formation rate of fluorescent complexes per unit area, it was found that nanometer-sized TiO2 crystals have superior adsorptivity over micrometer-sized TiO2 crystals and an atomically flat TiO2 surface. This observation is consistent with the higher density of surface defects on the nanoparticles. Furthermore, it was revealed that CA-BODIPY molecules are preferentially adsorbed on the top branches of α-Fe2O3 micropines, where a high density of exposed Fe cations is expected. Our methodology and findings yield new insights into the mechanisms underlying the synthesis and (photo)catalytic activity of metal oxide particles with different sizes and shapes.The Journal of Physical Chemistry C 05/2013; 117(21):11219–11228. · 4.84 Impact Factor -
Article: Controllable hydrothermal synthesis, optical and photocatalytic properties of TiO2 nanostructures
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Different surface morphologies of TiO2 thin films were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis method on Ti substrates through changing reaction time. The microstructure, composition, optical properties and photocatalytic properties of TiO2 thin films were systematically investigated by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectrometer and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. As the reaction time increases, anatase structure and brookite structure of TiO2 films respectively increases and decreases, corresponding to surface morphology changes from irregular structure to regular geometrical shape structure. These structural changes are accompanied by significant variations of optical properties and photocatalytic properties including a widening of the band gap from 2.86 to 3.19 eV, photocatalytic degradation efficiency from 92.5 to 98.1% and photocatalytic degradation rate from 0.032 to 0.048 min−1. Among all samples, TiO2-1 shows the best photocatalytic properties. Compositional analysis indicates that TiO2 surface layer contains Ti and O elements, the ratio of Ti:O is 1:2.28 which is close to the atom ratio of TiO2.Applied Surface Science 10/2014; 315:299–306. · 2.54 Impact Factor

A lot vs. Alot: 9 Grammatical Pitfalls
"disaster," 1848, from French débâcle "downfall, collapse, disaster" (17c.), a figurative use, literally "breaking up (of ice on a river)," extended to the violent flood that follows when the river ice melts in spring; from débâcler "to free," from Middle French desbacler "to unbar," from des- "off" + bacler "to bar," from Vulgar Latin *bacculare, from Latin baculum "stick" (see bacillus). Sense of "disaster" was present in French before English borrowed the word.
