Thanks for the link, Bigcountry... And well said, Sniper03. America needs to give the UN the finger when it comes to arms control, or anything it thinks it should require us to do.
I love the NRA, the UN means well they just tend to screw people over on a everyday basis. Mitch McConnel and Rand Paul are both about to get a 4 page email about this.

Strategic locatin to the Presideo.
More rooms than parking spaces.
I like 4 Star hotels so was a little wary of a Travel Lodge but it was just for the night, the price was right & the location left me within footsteps of the Presdio where I had meetings all day. I found the staff to be great, the room cozy & clean & the free parking unbeatable. It was a much more enjoyable stay than anticipated & easily makes my list of affordable places to stay in the city. Breakfast in the morning was perfect, the consiege was friendly & helpful. No complaints from this frequent traveler, no complaints at all.
Comfortable bed. Close to Presidio. Pretty goo value for what you get in a San Francisco Free parking but limited number of spaces
Continental breakfast could have fruit such as bananas or blueberries.
It was really out of my expectation. Comparing with other hotel, this one is simple. However, the people there are very nice and helpful, the man wore glasses in the front desk help us rent a car with a great deal! Indeed, everyone are so nice! I think perhaps that's what SF people's characteristic, always smiling and very helpful.
The room is not very big, but considering the price and other service, its bearable.
The front desk person was phenomenal! He had a wealth of information for the surrounding area that was very helpful. He also carried my bag up the stairs to my room. The morning front desk person was awesome as well. He had coffee made and all foods ready before the height of the storm took out the power. Excellent!
I had 2 issues: there was no screen on the window and the room smelled mildewy, which required that the window stay open.
Location was great...parking a plus.
Bathroom was ridiculously small...room was cramped.
Clean. Newer finish like paint and remodeled bathroom. Nice flat screen television.
Barely enough parking for the room there. Exterior appearance was fair.
The guy at the desk, Bruce, is the best. He is always so helpful and knowledgeable. He even parked my car for me. All the staff were very nice and friendly.
I like this place
It was close to everything you want to see... Bridge and wharf area. Continental breakfast was fine.
Room was tiny!!! 2 double beds took up all available room space and left none to walk through.
Staff were very informative and helpful, very knowledgeable about local areas. Golden Gate Bridge was spectacular no fog for a change
Rooms were small, breakfast didn't have much option
staff very friendly and helpful
room was very small
I liked the location which is close to the Golden Gate Bridge. We could have walked there, if the weather had been better, but we did drive there in minutes and walked the Bridge.The staff was dealing with a huge storm, power out, but did fine.
No elevator. Or I did not see one. Other than that, the continental breakfast was just OK.
Staff is very friendly. Good Wi-Fi connection . Clean,quiet and nice neighbourhood.
Sometime your key card to enter room wont work. Air conditioner is away from the bed.
The room was comfy and clean with a good shower. Peaceful area with free parking. Staff so helpful especially Raymond who gave us tips on how to get around the city, how to use the Muni and spending 20 mins with us drawing route numbers on the free map, this was invaluable during our stay. Easy driving distance to the Golden Gate & Muir Woods. Would definitely use as a base if visiting again.
Would have preferred a kettle in the room than just a coffee maker as I'm a tea drinker, but minor issue as this was supplied at breakfast and afternoon.
The staff was awesome. Helpful and very nice! A+++ customer service.
The hotel was extremely comfortable and convenient. Raymond at the front desk was very pleasant and extremely helpful. He took out time to explain all the bus routes and places for the visit. Both Raymond and Maurice were professional and courteous. It was a great experience for us.
Very friendly staff, clean big comfortable rooms
Expensive (but that's SF in general).
Free Parking Free Wifi Helpful staff Free printing service available
Housekeeping was not very well done. Some areas was not clean properly. Distance to city center was a bit far
The lack of elevator matters a lot to us when we are traveling with a family and lots of luggage. Should have mentioned in the hotel introduction.
We had a very clean room, great staff and was convenient to our daughter's wedding venues. I gave the hotel a good, because there were not many parking places and breakfast was simple, but good. Would stay there again!
More parking!

My JS saves some string data to JSON using "stringify()", but observing the outputted JSON string I see a lot of strange chars (out of keyspace), such as NULLs and other bad chars. Now I don't have a list of these "bad" chars so how can I strip them out of my string data?
Take the 2-minute tour
Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
It would be nice if there was a simple RegEx for that, but I don't think there is. From what I understand, you still want to allow characters like %$#@, etc, but want to disallow other oddball chars like tabs and nulls. If this is correct, I believe the easiest way would be to loop each character and evaluate the char code...
If you really want to use RegEx, a whitelist approach seems necessary. This will allow all numbers, letters, and a space...
If you have a list of the "good" chars you could create a regex which matches any character not in your list, and strip anything it matches - for instance, the following regex matches anything not the letters "a", "q", or "z":

Amazon to invest $2 bln more in India as e-commerce race heats up
MUMBAI (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc on Wednesday said it will invest a further $2 billion in India just a day after the country's largest e-tailer Flipkart attracted $1 billion of fresh funds, raising the stakes in a nascent but fast-growing e-commerce sector.
Amazon, which opened its Indian website in June last year, has drawn up the battle lines by slashing prices, launching same-day delivery, adding new product categories and embarking on a high-voltage advertisement campaign.
Amazon and Flipkart are joined in India's $13 billion e-commerce sector by marketplace Snapdeal, fashion e-tailer Jabong, and U.S. auctioneer eBay Inc.
"With this additional investment of $2 billion, our team can continue to think big, innovate, and raise the bar for customers in India," Chief Executive Jeff Bezos said in a statement. "At current scale and growth rates, India is on track to be our fastest country ever to a billion dollars in gross sales."
Amazon had not previously disclosed Indian investment plans. But on Monday, the U.S. company said it will raise its presence in the country by opening five more warehouses, almost doubling storage capacity to half a million square feet.
"It's all about who builds up scale faster and remains relevant for the next few decades," said Harminder Sahani, managing director of retail consultancy Wazir Advisors.
Amazon makes its money in India by charging third-party suppliers to use its website to sell 17 million different products including books, electronics and clothing.
The government is considering allowing foreign retailers to sell directly to customers. It recently took a step in that direction by allowing retailers to sell online products manufactured in India.
Indian e-commerce is expanding at a compound annual growth rate of 34 percent, according to a joint report by consultants Digital–Commerce, the Internet Mobile Association of India and the Indian Market Research Bureau. That rate, however, is slower than in some other emerging nations such as China.
Of the $13 billion market, travel services account for about 70 percent, according to consultancy Technopak. The type of goods sold through Amazon made up $1.6 billion of the total last year, according to researcher Forrester, and Technopak expects that figure to swell to $76 billion by 2021.
By comparison, e-commerce sales in China are likely to surpass $180 billion this year, according to researcher eMarketer.

The sheets are very thin and lightweight - great for the hot summer in the southwest. I just don't know if this will affect durability in the long run. They are crisp and clean. The cut was a bit off since the two pillowcases don't match - one being smaller than the other. The bottom sheet is snug at the corners and I had to tug a bit to get it to fit - this is unusual and unlike the other sheet sets that I purchased .(All are Tribeca and are supposed to have same measurements) The bottom sheet does have a wider elastic band all around it that ensures the sheet does not pull out easily - a great feature. Overall, it was still a good buy and I am pleased with the purchase.
If you have a thick pillow top mattress this will fit. They are deep as stated. I found them to have a heavier fabric than most sheets which should mean they will wear longer. They are maybe not quite the percale I remember, but they come close. They wrinkle up like percale. And have a crispness about them AFTER THEY ARE WASHED. They do take a little longer to dry because they are thicker fabric and I did not find them to shrink. I really like them and if not totally the percale I remember, they are real close and for the price that is not bad compared to other places selling what they claim as percale for much, much more. Would recommend.
When I got these out of the package they smelled horrible so I go them in the wash right away. The wrinkled really bad in the dryer so you may want to you a permanent press setting on your dryer if you have one. I've been sleeping on the sheets for about a week and they seem fine. I can't say if they're going to pill yet as it's too soon to tell. Overall, the fit on the mattress is OK. We have a 22" mattress and we didn't even struggle to get the sheets on so that's a HUGE plus in my book. I'm hoping that the sheets will soften up some more with time and washings. Definitely a good buy for the quality. I'll likely buy another set when I can.
Nice crisp sheets. I like sheets that feel cool and do not wrinkle. The thread count is perfect if you want a crisp sheet that will remind you of Grandma's house.
I agree with the other reviews that yes they are a good fit if you have a larger mattress, but these sheets are as scratchy and as uncomfortable as could be. They dont keep you cool when your sleeping on them and the material is very thin. Will be returning.
good quality and fits deep mattress very well
My sheets were a little stiff and a bit scratchy when they arrived. Recommend washing them before any use.
Love them, Remind me of the sheets my grandma used. Wrinkle a lot. But I don't care. Very deep pockets.
The sheet sets were for deep pocket mattresses, that's fine. The bottom sheets are at lest 2 inches longer than the mattress. That is a pain in the butt when making the bed but increasingly irritating as the week goes on with too large a bottom sheet.
The sheet itself didn't have the crispness I expected form 300 count cotton. The pocket depth, although mentioned in the specs, was huge. Be careful that your mattress/springs are thick enough.

Effects of "natural" water and "added" water on prediction of moisture content and bulk density of shelled corn from microwave dielectric properties.

ABSTRACT: A method based on nondestructive microwave characterization is used for simultaneous determination of the bulk density and moisture content of shelled corn. This method can be applied regardless of the measurement technique and thus considerably simplifies the calibration procedure. Calibration equations, both for the bulk density and for the moisture content, are given, together with the standard error of performance (SEP) at several frequencies in the range 11-18 GHz and three temperatures, 14, 24 and C. The bulk density, ranging from 695 to , can be determined with SEP in the range 11-. Neither the sample moisture content nor its temperature are required in order to determine the bulk density. The moisture content ranging from 9% to 19% on a wet basis, can be determined at each temperature without knowledge of the bulk density with SEP of less than 0.5% moisture content. Results of an error analysis of the measurements show that about half of the total uncertainties in bulk density and moisture content can be considered systematic errors and thus they are correctable.Measurement Science and Technology 12/1998; 9(9):1548. · 1.35 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The dielectric properties of wheat, corn, and soybeans were determined by measuring the scattering transmission coefficient S<sub>21 </sub> in free space at frequencies between 2 and 13 GHz. For better accuracy, a pair of horn-lens antennas was used and time-domain gating was applied to the main response. Variations of the dielectric properties with frequency and physical properties such as bulk density, moisture content, and temperature were investigated. Both the dielectric constant and the loss factor decreased with frequency and increased linearly with bulk density, moisture content, and temperature. Three different approaches are used to correlate the measured dielectric properties and physical properties. Explicit relationships between the dielectric properties and the different physical properties are given at a midrange frequency of 7.0 GHz as an example. The potential use of these relationships is shown for the development of indirect methods for the nondestructive and instantaneous determination of the physical properties of cereal grain and seed from measurements of their dielectric properties. Different sources of error in attenuation and phase shift measurement are discussed, and their effects on the accuracy for the determination of the relative complex permittivity and physical properties are investigatedIEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement 07/2006; · 1.71 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A new method for simultaneous and independent on-line determination of bulk density and moisture content in particulate materials by measurements of the relative complex permittivity is proposed. The bulk density is determined, based on a representation in the complex plane of relative complex permittivity normalized to bulk density. For moisture content determination, a new density-independent function, exclusively dependent on the dielectric properties, is used. Results obtained from measurements on wheat over broad ranges of microwave frequencies, temperatures, densities, and moisture contents are presentedIEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement 03/1998; · 1.71 Impact Factor

Aero City is located in a rural area three hundred kilometers northwest of Moscow. Built in the Soviet era, the town was a major center for aviation research and many of Russia's civil airliners, military transport aircraft, and guided missiles were built within its giant factories.
In 1994 the government announced plans to sell the whole of Russian industry under a scheme known as "mass privatization." The process was riddled with corruption and many of Russia's most valuable assets fell into the hands of a small group of men and women who became known as "the oligarchs."
One such man was Denis Obidin, who used his position as a junior bank official to fraudulently lend large sums of money to his own wife and parents. Obidin then used the cash to buy up shares that the government had given to factory workers who had no idea of their true worth. By 1996, he owned a slice of the Russian aerospace industry that was thought to be worth more than $800 million.
Today, Obidin not only controls all of the factories and most of the land and property in Aero City, but has had himself appointed mayor in a rigged election. When a local police chief announced plans to investigate corruption within Obidin's administration, the officer was found dead in his apartment and Obidin put his brother Vladimir in charge of law enforcement.
Obidin initially laid out grand plans to design and build a modern Russian airliner that could compete with Boeing and Airbus, but his reputation for corruption scared off foreign investors and no airline will purchase aircraft from a company with a shady past and an uncertain future.
After a series of layoffs, the unemployment rate in Aero City exceeds 80 percent. Obidin's one remaining factory produces a small number of missiles for the Russian military and upgrades elderly Russian airliners by fitting efficient British jet engines. But with the Russian military slashing its budgets and airlines steadily replacing their fleets with Western aircraft, this work is drying up.
Obidin has given up hope of raising the billions needed for his airliner project and put out word to international weapons dealers that everything is for sale. For the right price, a visitor to Aero City can purchase anything from a batch of rocket fuel or blueprints for a missile guidance system, all the way up to a truckload of anti-ship missiles capable of sinking an American aircraft carrier.
(Excerpt from a classified mission briefing for James Adams, August 2006)
Denis Obidin's luxury home had featured in glossy magazines both in Russia and across northern Europe. The rambling wooden structure was three stories high, with eight bedrooms, a ballroom where Obidin's wife hosted parties, and an eighty-meter spire at one end. The spire was topped off with a rotating platform and a retractable dome that would occasionally be opened to reveal a large telescope.
Denis claimed to love astronomy, but everyone knew that the tower was really a sniper post. Wealthy Russians were often targeted by kidnappers, and the sniper was a last line of defense against anyone who managed to breach the electrified perimeter, avoid the guard dogs, and make it past the machine-gun-toting guards who patrolled the compound.
The huge double-glazed windows in Denis Obidin's library looked out over an expanse of forest. The leaves were autumnal and the ground was dusted with snow. A romantic might have found it beautiful, but James Adams could only see cold.
It was warm inside the Obidins' house, with its under-floor heating and a gas generator buried beneath the garage, but the rest of Aero City got its electricity from a decrepit nuclear power station five hundred kilometers away and suffered regular outages. After a month living in Aero City, James had concluded that the only thing in the world worse than school was a school where you spent the entire day wearing fingerless gloves and watching your classmates' breath curling up toward the ceiling.
"It's snowing," James said, in Russian, as he looked across a long desk at Denis Obidin's six-year-old son, Mark.
James had been learning Russian intensively for three years and was fluent, though his accent was nowhere near good enough for him to pass as a native. James asked Mark to repeat the phrase in English.
"Zisss nowing," Mark said.
"Not bad," James said cheerfully. "Now let's try English numbers again."
The little boy shook his head and screwed up his face before breaking into a giant yawn. "I'm too tired."
"Come on, Mark," James said sternly. "I'm your tutor and if you don't concentrate you're not going to pass your entrance exam."
Mark broke into an evil smile. "I'll tell my daddy it was your fault and he'll punish you."
"Oh, you reckon, do you?" James scoffed.
Mark folded his arms. "My uncle Vladimir is the chief of police. He's got his own police station and his own cells. He can do whatever he likes."
"Maybe he'll put you in a cell if you don't pass your exam."
"Nah, he loves me." Mark grinned. "He buys me all the biggest Lego sets. I don't ever want to go to a stupid English boarding school. I like it here."
"At least the classrooms are nice and warm in England," James said, giving a shrug. "And the lights never go out in the middle of the day. Besides, we all have to do things we don't like, kiddo. My aunt and uncle make me come here after school every day and teach English to a horrible smelly little boy. And all because they're trying to be nice to your daddy."
Mark got out of his chair, ran around the desk, and tried looking mean as he bunched his fist under James's nose. "I'm not smelly. You're smelly."
"You wouldn't dare."
Mark smiled as he gently nudged his fist against James's nose.
"GRRRRR," James bellowed. "You're dead, you chicken nugget."
The little boy cracked up laughing as James scooped him off the floor and flipped him upside down so that his hair hung down in strands.
"Now I'll use you as a broom," James said, as he lowered Mark's head toward the floor and swung him gently from side to side, before setting the youngster down on the edge of the desk.
"Do that again," Mark squealed, giggling so much that he had spit bubbling out the corner of his mouth.
"I'll do it again, but only if you say I want to be a broom in English."
"Never in stupid English," Mark said indignantly, as he jumped off the table and crashed face-first onto a beanbag by the window.
Both boys turned toward the door as it clicked open. Vladimir Obidin stood in the doorway. The powerfully built man wore the crisply tailored uniform of a senior police officer.
"James, you're leaving now," he said.
James looked at his watch as Mark sighed with disappointment.
"It's only twenty past," James said.
"There's a meeting here tonight," Vladimir said. He abruptly changed his tone to one of anger. "I don't justify myself to children. When I say go, you go."
Vladimir sent a shiver down James's back. The man had worked for Russian military intelligence and had a reputation for extracting confessions from Aero City's criminals with a set of dentist's tools and a blow lamp. James tried not to feel intimidated as he said good-bye to Mark, grabbed his backpack, and stepped out of the library.
"I've got a long trek home," James said nervously. "Can I use the bathroom?"
Vladimir huffed as though James had just imposed some great burden upon him. "Quickly then."
James stepped into a plush washroom, with a huge spa bath and beech-panelled walls. He slid off his backpack and—all too aware that Vladimir was on the other side of the door—quietly pulled a Nokia communicator out of the side pocket.
As James flipped it open, he noticed that the communicator had picked up some e-mails. Cell phone coverage in Aero City was flaky and his phone tended to receive a whole bunch of messages and missed calls whenever he passed through an area with good reception. But this wasn't a good moment to read them. He switched to a wireless messaging application and tapped in a four-digit number to access a hidden menu.
James had dropped a dozen pinhead-sized listening devices around the Obidins' house over the three weeks in which he'd been tutoring Mark after school. Rows of bright green signal bars on the communicator screen showed that they were all powered up and transmitting perfectly.
"Shift it," Vladimir shouted, pounding his fist on the door. "I'm a busy man."
"Just shaking off," James said, as he shoved the communicator inside his pack and raced for the door. At the last minute he remembered to flush the toilet.
Mark gave James a friendly wave from one of the first-floor windows as Vladimir escorted him down the woodchip driveway toward the solid steel gate at the front of the Obidin compound.
"All right, Slava," James nodded, as he passed a guard and stepped through a reinforced steel door cut into a half-meter-thick wall.
The bored and half-frozen guard usually exchanged a few sentences with him, but he clammed up under Vladimir's gaze and didn't even acknowledge James's nod.
Once James was out of the compound, he zipped his jacket and pulled up the collar to ward off the cold. For the purposes of this mission, James lived in an apartment block six kilometers away with a fake aunt and uncle. They were posing as weapons dealers who wanted to buy missiles from Denis Obidin. In reality they both worked for MI5.
A bus ran into town from a stop half a kilometer from Obidin's house, but Aero City's transportation was erratic. The wait for a bus in subzero temperatures was unbearable, and on the odd occasion when a bus actually turned up, it was filled with cigarette smoke and mean-tempered pensioners with vile coughs. Running home was the healthier option and it meant James would still be in decent physical shape when he returned to CHERUB campus.
The first part of James's run took him along a gloomy road, with little traffic and trees packed along each side. He loved this section of his daily run home, with the crisp air and the smell of pine needles. The trees ended when he reached factory seven. A kilometer and a half long, the massive hangar had once employed thirty-five thousand workers who turned out a three-hundred-seat airliner every ten days.
It had been graffitied and vandalized in the years after closing, but most young families had left Aero City in search of work and taken the city's delinquent teens with them. The only life James had ever seen around the plant were a few homeless boys who lived rough in an abandoned apartment block. They sniffed glue inside the dilapidated remains of a cargo plane and occasionally kicked a half-inflated soccer ball around inside the hangar.
Once he was sure nobody was about, James stopped running and sat on a concrete step with his back against a fire door that had been taken off its hinges, probably to be burned as firewood. He slid the communicator out of his pocket and checked his messages.
The first was from his girlfriend back at CHERUB campus:
James had heaps of other birthday messages from friends on campus and even a message from his handler, Meryl Spencer. The oldest unread message was from his sister, Lauren. It had been sent the evening before:

All the Cherub Books Are Great and i can't wait for this one to come out. They Need Movies For These Books but they would have to make good movies like those of Harry Potter movies. They Are Good Guys (cherubs) that are on missions to catch bad guys doing bad stuff like terroism,drug dealing,crooked cops, And big time thieves. Cherubs Can Fight amazing from training and they can speak several languages along with getting girls and making friends for the purpose of their mission. They Are Great And I Recommend Them Over Anything including Harry Potter though harry potters pretty amazing

Identification of N-acetyltransferase 2 genotypes by continuous monitoring of fluorogenic hybridization probes.

ABSTRACT: Polymorphism in N-acetyltransferases NAT1 and NAT2 may contribute to differences in cancer susceptibility of subjects exposed to alkylating compounds. We developed a robust method for simultaneous determination of these NAT polymorphisms: Reverse line blot (RLB) hybridization, based on PCR followed by allele-specific oligo hybridization. On a membrane, allele-specific oligonucleotide probes of the NAT genes (NAT1*4, *3, *10, *11 and NAT2*4, *5, *6, *7, *12) were applied in lines. After separate amplification of the NAT genes, simultaneous hybridization of these products in lines perpendicular to the lines with oligonucleotide probes was performed, followed by nonradioactive detection. This resulted in hybridization patterns, representing the NAT genotype of an individual. RLB hybridizations were conducted on DNA from 240 Dutch Caucasian participants in an ongoing case-control study on colorectal adenoma (including 126 polyp-free control subjects). Results were in complete agreement with those obtained by commonly used methods, i.e., allele-specific PCR and PCR-RFLP. Allele-frequencies in the polyp-free control group were similar to those described in the literature. RLB hybridization is, however, considerably faster and cheaper than the common assays. Moreover, expansion with allelic variants of other genes is relatively easy, which makes RLB hybridization very useful for multiplex analysis of numerous polymorphisms in epidemiological studies.Analytical Biochemistry 11/2000; · 2.31 Impact Factor - Analytical Biochemistry 02/2001; 288(1):106-8. · 2.31 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: We have developed a new method for high-throughput genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The technique involves PCR amplification of genomic DNA with two tailed allele-specific primers that introduce priming sites for universal energy-transfer-labeled primers. The output of red and green light is conveniently scored using a fluorescence plate reader. The new method, which was validated on nine model SNPs, is well suited for high-throughput, automated genotyping because it requires only one reaction per SNP, it is performed in a single tube with no post-PCR handling, the same energy-transfer-labeled primers are used for all analyses, and the instrumentation is inexpensive. Possible applications include multiple-candidate gene analysis, genomewide scans, and medical diagnostics.Genome Research 02/2001; 11(1):163-9. · 13.85 Impact Factor

US 5288341 A Abstract An agent is characterized by containing a polymerizable monomer having a thiophosphoric acid dichloride group. By applying this agent to the surfaces of noble metals, much more durable and increased bond strength is obtained.
Claims(4) 1. A method for treating the surface of a metal, comprising applying on the surface of a metal an agent comprising a polymerizable monomer comprising 0.001 to 10% by weight of a thiophosphoric acid dichloride group of the formula (I) or (II): ##STR3## n is an integer of from 1-16, wherein said agent is dissolved in an organic solvent.
2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said method further comprises the step of removing excess agent.
3. The method according to claim 1, wherein said agent further comprises of water and 2 molar equivalents or less, based on said polymerizable monomer, of tertiary amine.
4. The method according to claim 3, wherein said method further comprises removing excess agent.
Description The present invention relates generally to bonding together metals and, more particularly, to an agent and method for pre-treating the surfaces of the metals to be bonded together, when the metals are bonded together with the use of polymer adhesives. As compared with bonding together base metals such as cobalt, chromium, nickel, titanium, iron and copper as well as their alloys, it is much more difficult to bond together chemically stable noble metals such as gold, platinum and palladium as well as noble metal alloys containing them as main components; that is, there is no or little technique to meet such demands. In an effort to improve the adhesion of noble metals, applying primers on them, sandblasting their surfaces by physical means, tinning and oxidizing them have been proposed so far in the art. Of these procedures, the application of primers is the simplest one. Typical primers comprise monomers containing 6-(4-vinylbenzyl-n-propyl)amino-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dithion (VBATDT), as set forth in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 64-83254 and thiophosphoric acid, as referred to in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-138282. Some of the procedures mentioned above are found to be effective under dry conditions, but have the disadvantage of being poor in water resistance and durability. The application of primers, on the other hand, is considered preferable because of being free from such problems. However, problems with using VBATDT as a primer are that some limitation is placed on what metals are bonded together and what catalysts are used for curing the bonding agent as well. It is admitted that the procedure of using a monomer containing a thiophosphoric acid group has some effect, but it offers storing and handling problems because the material is unstable. A primary object of this invention is therefore to provide a pre-treatment or primer agent which can be used with every metal and every catalyst for curing adhesives and does not pose any storing and handling problems. According to the present invention, the problem with using a thiophosphoric acid group-containing monomer can be solved, if a polymerizable monomer containing a thiophosphoric acid dichloride group that is the precursor thereof is used. In other words, the present invention provides an agent for treating the surfaces of metals, in which 0.001 to 10% by weight of a thiophosphoric acid dichloride group-containing polymerizable monomer is dissolved in an organic solvent. The thiophosphoric acid dichloride group-containing polymerizable monomer used in this invention has the following general formula I or II: ##STR1## Set out below are preferable examples of the monomer according to this invention. ##STR2## The thiophosphoric acid dichloride group-containing polymerizable monomer may be dissolved in an organic solvent at a concentration of 0.001 to 10% by weight. Used preferably to this end are acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, ethyl acetate, methyl methacrylate, chloroform, benzene, toluene or their mixtures. The thiophosphoric acid dichloride group-containing polymerizable monomer may be used by itself. If desired, it may be used in the form of a composition which is obtained by dissolving it in the organic solvent, followed by addition of water and a tertiary amine, each in an amount of 2 molar equivalents per monomer. The tertiary amine used to this end, for instance, may be triethylamine, tripropylamine, tributylamine and pyridine. The concentration of the polymerizable monomer of this invention in the organic solvent may lie in the range of 0.001 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight, although varing depending upon how to treat metals. To be more specific, a solution having a concentration as low as about 0.01 to 0.3% by weight may be applied on the surfaces of metals, or alternatively the metals may be immersed in that solution. Then, the solvent is evaporated off for direct bonding. In the case of using solutions having higher concentrations, excessive portions thereof should be well wiped off or washed off after applied on metals. Irrespective of whether the treating solutions are low or high in concentration, it is generally preferred that washing be done so as to improve the adhesion between metals. Preferable washing solvents used, for instance, may be organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate and methyl methacrylate or their mixtures. A curing-by-polymerization type adhesive containing a polymerizable monomer having a double bond and a polymerization initiator as components is then applied on the thus pre-treated surface of the metal. Examples of the monomer are methyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, triethylene glycol methacrylate and 2,2-bis[4-(3-methacryloyloxy-2-hydroxypropoxy)phenyl]propane (BIS-GMA). As the polymerization initiator, by way of example alone, 5-butyl-barbituric acid or 1-cyclohexyl-5-ethylbarbituric acid/copper chloride may be used. The metals to which this invention is applied, for instance, may be noble and base ones such as gold, platinum, silver, palladium, titanium, iron, tin, zinc and copper as well as their alloys. This invention will now be explained more specifically but not exclusively with reference to the examples. Metal columns of 6-10 mm in diameter and 3-6.5 mm in height are used as test pieces. They were polished with silicon carbide polishing paper and then polished to finish with Imperial Lapping Felm #4000. Next, 10-methacryloyloxydecyl thiophosphoric acid dichloride was synthesized and dissolved in acetone at a 5% concentration. This solution was used (A) by itself, (B) with water and triethylamine, each in one molar equivalent and (C) with water and triethylamine, each in two molar equivalents--Treating Solutions (A), (B) and (C). The treating solution was brushed on the surface of each test piece, which was in turn allowed to stand alone for 10 minutes for air drying. Thereafter, it was immersed in acetone for 30 minutes to 19 hours, and then removed therefrom, washed with acetone and air-dried to prepare the sample to be bonded. For bonding testing, a set of two samples of the same metal were used. A cellophane tape having a hole of 5 mm in diameter was applied on the surface of one sample to measure coverage. Subsequently, a paste made up of polymethyl methacrylate containing 10% of tributylborane partial oxide (TBBO) was placed on the tape, to which the other sample treated on the surface was bonded under pressure. The thus bonded samples were let stand alone in the air of 37� C. for one day and in the water of 37� C., and subjected to heat cycle testing 2000 times, in which they were alternately immersed in the waters of 4� C. and 60� C. for one minute. Thereafter, they were subjected to tensile testing at a rate of 2 mm/min. For estimation, five measurements were averaged. Set out below are the results of tests with nine metals. TABLE 1__________________________________________________________________________Tensile strength of metals when bonded after coating with 5%treating solution followed by immersion in acetone (MPa) Time of immersion in acetone after coating with treating solutions (A, B, C) 0.5 hr 1.0 hr 3.0 hr 19.0 hrMetal B B C A B C A B C__________________________________________________________________________Au alloy 26.7 28.3 18.8 24.4 26.3 26.5 13.4 31.9 41.2Au/Ag/Pd alloy 38.9 32.7 37.0 43.0 24.7 32.1 40.9 23.8 45.3Ag alloy 24.7 32.9 37.1 44.3 38.7 37.8 40.7 38.5 45.2Ni/cr alloy 34.3 48.6 51.2 29.5 49.1 46.7 39.4 48.6 46.2Co/Cr alloy 30.5 35.5 46.7 37.3 38.8 39.8 51.3 41.2 50.4Pt 11.8 21.3 28.6 27.4 33.3 41.3 25.5 49.3 53.5Pd 4.0 29.7 25.4 44.3 35.1 41.8 42.0 44.0 50.3Ag 36.1 44.5 28.7 44.1 39.1 34.6 19.5 31.5 42.4Au 5.6 9.0 4.8 9.6 6.2 17.7 3.2 4.5 9.6__________________________________________________________________________ Treating Solutions (A), (B) and (C) are all effective, but when they are used at a 5% concentration, it is not desirable that they are let stand alone in the air after coating; in other words, it is preferred that excess solutions are removed by immersion in acetone or the like. The procedures of Example 1 were followed with the exception that a 0.02% solution of Treating Solution (C) in acetone was used and the samples were immersed in acetone for 19 hours or let stand alone in the air for 19 hours after coating. The results are given in Table 2. TABLE 2______________________________________Tensile bond strength (in MPa) between the samplesimmersed in acetone or let stand alone in the airfor 19 hours, ten minutes after coating of a 0.02%solution of Treating Solution (C) in acetoneMetal immersion in acetone standing in the air______________________________________Au alloy 42.3 23.2Au/Ag/Pd alloy 49.8 43.3Ag alloy 46.6 39.3Ni/Cr alloy 44.1 30.1Co/Cr alloy 58.9 50.2Pt 47.1 43.3Pd 50.3 42.2Ag 52.3 49.4Au 18.7 22.0______________________________________ At a concentration as low as 0.02%, it has turned out that some considerable bond strength is obtained after let stand alone following coating without recourse to immersion in acetone. Still, it is desired that the metals be immersed in an organic solvent. Thus, whether or not the metals are immersed in an organic solvent may be determined depending upon what purpose they are used for. The procedures of Example 1 were followed with the exception that the test pieces were not subjected to any surface treatment. The results are reported in Table 3. TABLE 3______________________________________Tensile bond strength (in MPa) between metals Comparative Comparative Example 1 Example 2Metal (No Treatments) (Treatment with 4META)______________________________________Au alloy 12.0 15.1Au/Ag/Pd alloy 5.5 19.5Ag alloy 16.2 3.1Ni/Cr alloy 0 45.2Co/Cr alloy 3.3 39.4Pt 0 10.2Pd 0 7.7Ag 0 6.4Au 0 3.4______________________________________ The procedures of Example 1 were followed with the exception that 4-methacryloyloxyethoxycarbonyl phthalic anhydride (4-META) said to be effective for bonding metals together was used in place of the surface treating solutions used there. The results are summarized in Table 3. The procedures of Example 1 were followed with the exception that two metals were bonded to an acrylic rod over a coverage of 3 mm in diameter with the use of a 1% solution of Treating Solution (C) and by immersion in acetone for 19 hours. The results are reported in Table 4. As will be understood from Table 4, the polymerization initiators used were TBBO, benzoyl peroxide/p-tolyldiethanolamine (BPO/TDEA) and 1-cyclohexyl-5-ethylbarbituric acid/copper chloride. TABLE 4______________________________________Tensile bond strength (in MPa) betweenmetals and acrylic rodsMetal TBBO BPO/TDEA Barbituric acid______________________________________Au alloy 23.1 21.3 28.7Au/Ag/Pd alloy 22.7 18.6 21.5______________________________________ The present method is effective for every metal, and is particularly suitable for bonding together noble metals which are bonded together with some difficulty in conventional manners. With no need of relying upon troublesome procedures such as tinning and oxidization treatments, much more durable and increased bond strength is achievable by a simple procedure for which only coating is needed. Problems with the thiophosphoric acid group-containing monomer is that it cannot in fact be obtained in pure form and it precipitates out when stored in solution form. By contrast, the thiophosphoric acid dichloride according to this invention can be isolated in pure form and stored as such; that is, it can be used in solution or composition form depending upon the type of metal, as occasion arises.

The pair was chosen to help fete the class of 2011 at the famed Massachusetts school, and state native Poehler couldn't help but make jokes about her own education in Boston during her speech on Wednesday (25May11), telling the pupils, "Just because you're wicked smart doesn't mean you're better than me. I graduated from BC (Boston College): 'The Harvard of Boston.' Though we all know, Harvard is the Harvard of Harvard."
She also poked fun at famous Harvard graduate Mark Zuckerberg and his legal battle with the Winklevoss twins, which was depicted in The Social Network movie, adding, "(Harvard is) filled with people who get rich by inventing things, and people who get rich suing the people who invented things."
Baldwin also kept his speech light-hearted, but ended on a serious not by urging the students not to squander their prospects, according to the Boston Herald.
He said, "This country needs your help. You have the tools to change lives. There's no limit to what you can do. Better people's lives or liberate your countrymen. You have the power. Use it not just to do good, but to bring morality to the law... As I've grown older, I believe I would trade what I have for what you will have tomorrow afternoon."

Scotland has a very old history. So you will find history almost on each edge of the awesome landscapes. I will relate to them a little in my next uploads.
This castle is the Ardvreck Castle at the Loch Assynt, it dates from the late 15th century, and it was the seat of the MacLeods... a Clan with important influence. Of course there exist a ghost story of this castle.......
The story tells that the MacLeods procured the help of Clootie (a Scottish name for the Devil, deriving from 'cloot', meaning one division of a cleft hoof) to build the castle and in return the daughter of one of the MacLeod chieftains was betrothed to him as payment. In despair of her situation, the girl threw herself from one of the towers and was killed. Since.... you can hear her weeping in dark nights from the middle of the Loch Assynt....
With this first picture of Scotland i am back again...
