Welcome to the Department of Chemistry
The Department of Chemistry and the University of Saskatchewan offer a variety of undergraduate and graduate student programs, coupled with research opportunities spanning all the major sub-disciplines of chemistry as well as a number of emerging interdisciplinary areas. We invite you to browse our website and welcome inquires for further information.
Chemistry Updates
Graduate Student Symposium
The 1st Graduate Student Symposium on Science and Communication will be held on May 29, 2015, and will feature Dr. Joe Schwarcz as the keynote speaker. Students in the Department of Chemistry are encouraged to participate by giving an oral presentation or poster presentation at this event. Click here for further information.
Chemistry Summer Classes
Registration for Chemistry summer classes is now open! We offer Chem 112 in Quarter 1, Chem 115 in Quarter 2 and Chem 250 in Quarter 3. Registration is available through PAWS.
Chemistry 112/114/115/250 registration problems?
Please keep trying - more seats will come available!
Procedure for registration overrides:
- Registration is limited by registration in the associated laboratories. As laboratory scheduling is constrained by safety concerns, registration overrides will only be given to students who are applying for lab exemptions, or if there are available lab spots but limited lecture spots.
- Please note that instructors *will not* sign registration override forms for Chem 112, 114, 115 or 250. Instructors do not have information on lab registration and scheduling.
Historically, space always opens up in the first week of classes as other students drop classes or move to term 2. Please keep trying - PAWs is the only way for students to register themselves in courses. Laboratories start in mid-September, so there is plenty of time for you to register!
Prerequisites for Chemistry 112
The prerequisites for Chem 112 are Chemistry 30 and (Mathematics B30 or Foundations of Mathematics 30 or Pre-Calculus 30). Prerequisites and corequisites have been established by the college after thorough examination of courses and programs. Therefore, a prerequisite will normally be waived only if an equivalent alternative learning experience can be identified. Please see the following sites for information about taking Chemistry 30 by night classes or cyber school:
Saskatoon Catholic Cyber School
Saskatoon Public Schools Online Learning Center
Saskatchewan Polytechnic
If you have an identifiable equivalent learning experience that you would like to have considered by the course coordinator, please fill out a Prerequisite and Corequisite Waiver/Substitution Form form, and drop it off at the Chemistry Office (Thorvaldson Building, Room 165).

Ok, so I managed to upgrade the drivers (I followed http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...ivers_manually). In order to have watchable video (HD videos were really painful) I opened CCSM > General > OpenGL > and unchecked "Sync To VBlank"
It's not perfect, but at least the jerkiness doesn't drive me insane. I haven't tried any 3D games yet, but I'll get there. Hopefully it's at least usable. Thanks again.

A man and woman have decided to get married after spending over eight decades together.
Wheelchair-bound Jose Manuel Riella, 103, married his long-time love Martina Lopez, 99, in a ceremony held at the couples home in Paraguay, reports the BBC. The two had already gotten married in a civil wedding years ago, but had not gone through with a religious ceremony at the time.
The couple have eight children, 50 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren and 20 great-great-grandchildren, many of whom attended the wedding.
The priest said they were the oldest newlyweds he had ever known.

HUGE price increase at Publix here in Orlando. Was previously $2.89 per can. It's now $2.99 per can. Woooooo $0.10 per can. LOLI stocked up and bought 8 cans!
So I guess it is up to the store itself to price the can.
Price might also be based on port of entry and proximity of your grocery store to the distributor warehouse?

Just for the record: I don't just listen to Bruce Springsteen. In fact, for Wicked Local and Gatehouse Media I recently came up with my list of "22 albums from 2012″ — they're not necessarily the "best," or even my favorites, but they're the ones that stuck in my craw (and on my iPod) for one reason or another. (Well, yes, Bruce is on the list — how could he not be?)
I recommend you get thee to a keyboard and download these — or better yet, get them from your local independent record store. Some of them even come in vinyl!
Best Coast, �The Only Place.� Thought it lacks some of the endearing sonic fuzziness of their breakout LP �Crazy For You,� Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno still deliver a marvelously angsty collection of lo-fi surf rock. LISTEN TO: �Why I Cry,� a jangly shout-out about depression and clueless boyfriends.
Bob Dylan, �Tempest.� Dylan still croaks like a master, cajoling his craggy voice around old-fashioned arrangements and lyrics that are, as always, illuminating and inscrutable at the same time. LISTEN TO: �Long and Wasted Years,� a spoken-sung rumination on a marriage gone cold.
Bonnie Raitt, �Slipstream.� Bonnie continues to improve with age, her bluesy song stylings and stellar guitar work remaining a pleasure on her first album since 2005. LISTEN TO: �Million Miles,� a dark and sultry Dylan cover.
Bruce Springsteen, �Wrecking Ball.� Springsteen�s most timely album ever, it�s as much about hope and the need to connect as it is about economic and emotional despair � and a penchant for rollicking Americana keeps it squarely rooted in uplift mode. LISTEN TO: The restrained, gospel-infused �Rocky Ground.�
Craig Finn, �Clear Heart Full Eyes.� The Hold Steady frontman trades rock bombast for more personal folk and country territory here, and the shift suits him. LISTEN TO: The appropriately bluesy standout �Honolulu Blues.�
David Byrne and St. Vincent, �Love This Giant.� Horn-heavy and sonically goofy, this collaboration is even more oddly endearing than you�d probably imagine. It�s a marriage made in alternative indie heaven. LISTEN TO: �Outside of Space and Time,� a song about buildings and food � and pretty much everything else.

LEGAL GUEST BLOG -- MARC BLOCH Politics and the strength of the NLRBBy MARC BLOCH 4:30 am, October 31, 2012
With the election less than a week away, there is tremendous speculation as to what might change, depending on the final outcome. Certainly healthcare reform is a key focal point. Of equal importance, however, is the overall impact on the labor movement. Not since the days of President Carter has this country seen as much influence from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) as it has with the support of the Obama administration.

I'm not keen on Pelicans. I do love New Orleans Domino! Domino is a Latin word for Lord or Master and the root word of dominate. Also, it's the name for the half mask worn at masquerades or balls and the name of the famous nola musician Fats Domino!
I would like to see a logo that is Domino spelled with the NOLA street tiles.
Jesus. Clowns are calling in talking about Vampires as a team name.
"We were the meat capital of the world," said Klein at the time. "At first, I was thinking of names like Matadors (funny how that worked out given today's Matadors) or Toreadors, but if you think about it, no team with as many as three syllables in its nickname has ever had much success except for the Canadians. I was sitting around the house, kicking these names around with my wife and three sons, when my little son Mark said, 'Dad, that's a bunch of bull!' I said, 'That's it! We'll call them the Bulls!' And that's how the team got its nickname."
After 2-3-4 years from now, there will only be 3 or 4 players remaining from this 2012 team at best, that's how NBA works. Today I'm on this team, and tomorrow I will be playing for the rival.
How many players from the Hornets roster of 2 years ago are still on the team? I'm going to tell you:
Only 1 and it's Jason Smith.
That's why someone identifies himself MOSTLY because of the NAME, the COLOURS and the LOGO. Because the players come and leave (the NBA is just a trading cards game) but the IDENTITY of a team will always remain.

Cold sores are small, painful, fluid-filled blisters. They are usually found at the border of the lip.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Cold sores are caused by 2 types of herpes simplex viruses. Cold sores are common. In most cases, people contract the virus as young children.
You may get the virus from:
The first episode of illness with herpes virus can cause a body-wide illness. After that, the virus lies quietly in the skin until it is reactivated. The reactivated virus causes a cold sore to appear.
Factors that can reactivate the virus and lead to an outbreak of cold sores include:
It is not always clear what triggers a cold sore.
A cold sore occurs most often on the lips, but can occur in the mouth or other areas of the skin. They are small, painful sores that are fluid filled and red-rimmed blisters.
You may notice some itching, tingling, or burning the day before a cold sore appears. The sores will dry up with a crust and shallow sore after a few days.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. The blisters will be examined.
A cold sore can usually be diagnosed with a visual exam. In rare cases, a sample of the blister may be taken. The sample will be sent to a lab to be tested.
A blood sample may also be taken for testing.
Cold sores will usually heal within 2 weeks even without treatment. However, certain treatments may help decrease symptoms. They may also shorten the time that you have a cold sore. Treatment options include:
To help reduce pain consider:
Prescription antiviral creams or ointments, may also help decrease pain.
Oral antiviral medications may be prescribed to suppress frequent outbreaks. These are taken the moment you feel a cold sore coming.
Avoid rubbing or scratching blisters. This can delay healing and cause an infection.
If you have an active cold sore, avoid touching the infected area. This will help keep you from spreading the virus to other people and/or other parts of your body. If you do touch the area, wash your hands.
To reduce your chance of catching a virus, take these steps:
The herpes virus will never leave your body once you have it. There is no cure for the infection. If you already have a herpes infection, to prevent future outbreaks of cold sores or blisters:

Well I commented on this before. Apparently it is not something everyone notices. On windows you have these guys running all the services and daemons, and encouraging others to do the same, when there is a clear difference.
On my machine, standard kernel can`t even do 30fps video without stutter.
In these discussions there seems to be several who understand what I am talking about, yet many who talk against.
And even one argues "Yes, you will have ultrasmooth videos but.." - What are you saying, you WANT your videos to chop, even if throughput is on average the same? That would be retardation.
Peace Be With You.

IDEAS GLOBAL ASSEMBLY 2015: "Evaluating Sustainable Development" Thailand 26 - 30 October 2015
Call for Abstracts http://www.ideas-int.org/documents/document.cfm?docID=1083
The International Development Evaluation Association (IDEAS) was inaugurated in September 2002 to help fill a gap in the international evaluation architecture. IDEAS' mission is 'to advance and extend the practice of development evaluation by refining methods, strengthening capacity and expanding ownership', with a particular focus on developing and transitional economies. IDEAS focuses on three major themes:
IDEAS' strategy aims to promote and advance evaluation especially in partnership with regional and national associations as a key tool for sustainable development effectiveness, transparency and accountability in policy-making, social and organisational learning.

Looking for Headphones?
Start shoppingVideo: Bose® QuietComfort ®15 Noise Cancelling® Headphones
Learn about what makes Bose's QuietComfort® 15 Noise Cancelling® Headphones different from the crowd, from their sophisticated technology to their travel-friendly design.
Ken: Hi. I'm Ken, here in the Crutchfield studios with the Bose® QuietComfort® 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling® Headphones. Now these are great for just about anywhere — excellent for travel and also good for everyday listening whether you're at work or just kicking back at home.
Bose has refined their noise reduction technology. The QuietComfort 15 headphones have two microphones in each ear cup. One's on the outside and the other one is on the inside. Now, here's how it works. Say you're listening to your MP3 player in an airplane. Inside the ear cup you're actually getting sound from two sources: your music and cabin noise. The outer microphone picks up the cabin noise and the interior microphone serves as a second line of defense detecting whatever noise slips into the ear cups. Sophisticated circuitry creates an out of phase signal that cancels out the unwanted noise so that you just hear your music.
The soft padding on the ear cups makes it very comfortable — great for long listening sessions. The cushions conform to the shape of your head, making a tight acoustical seal that further blocks outside noise. And here's another nice touch: if you don't want to listen to anything, just remove the plug.
The QuietComfort 15 headphones fold flat for easy storage and slip right into this sturdy case — very handy for travel. So whether you're traveling, working, or just want a little peace and quiet, check out the Bose QuietComfort 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphones.

It has been mentioned before today here.
indeed. USD and Euro are the international currencies, im sure it wouldn't hurt to bench prices on such standards just like every other store.
LGP does have a good wob of games. even if most of them cant match up to the loki counterparts, they should still sell. The presentation is downright awful and the sale prices are what half of these games should have been sold at to begin with.
It has been mentioned before today here.
Son of beetch! */cortez*
I missed it!?
Thanks LGP for the sale. I've been meaning to get X3 for a while and you just gave me a good excuse for the wife . Looking forward to the game.
Security issues, how nice...
well i tried to order some games with my cash card but the system wouldnt accept the card
I got my two games Cold War and Jets n Guns a few days ago. Both seems pretty nice but I have not had time to try them out.
Oh, and I also got my new credit card to replace the "tainted" one...
I bought Sacred about a week before this sale was announced, so while I didn't get the game at the sale price, I am happy that I bought a Linux title to support LGP. On the plus side, I snagged a copy of Cold War during the sale and it finally arrived yesterday. I am having tons of fun playing my new Linux games, but I wish I knew beforehand about the security issues with LGP's site. Now I have to watch my on-line credit statements like a hawk, just in case...

Gallery: Last Surviving Ellis Island Ferry Transformed Into Historic Ho...
The passenger deck serves as a beautiful dining room.
Before nestling in the New York harbor as a cozy residence, the Yankee Ferry had a very exciting career spanning over 100 years. Built in 1907, the Yankee was first designed to carry passengers between Portland, Maine and the Calendar Islands in Casco Bay. Then after a brief career in Boston, she was enlisted in World War I, armed with two one-pounder guns and used to transport men and supplies along the East Coast.
After the war, the Yankee moved to New York where she was used to ferry immigrants from their incoming ships to Ellis Island. As many passengers traveled below deck, their first sights of the new world were very likely from the deck of the Yankee.
After extensive restorations, Victoria and Richard purchased the boat and settled into their New York time capsule of a home. In keeping with the spirit of recycling and preservation, the couple have integrated the ship's most characteristic features into their everyday lives. The passenger deck serves as a beautiful dining room and the helm makes a cozy office space.
Victoria has also built a "Polka Dot Garden," of various vegetables growing out of 104 old truck tires on the adjacent dock. The garden includes a complete irrigation system running along the pavement, and Victoria reported corn growing over 9 feet tall last year. The couple also raise their own chicken aboard the ferry.
Registered as an historical vessel with the National Register of Historical Places, the Yankee is a truly special piece of New York history that we are incredibly grateful to still have, and to see in good hands.

Earthscraper concept takes urban planning underground
The next ten stories house retail shops and domestic housing, whilst the deepest levels offer 35 stories of office space (Image: BNKR Aquitectura)
Article Summary
This ambitious "Earthscraper" concept from BNKR Aquitectura seeks to address several problems faced by Mexico City - a growing population, the lack of new plots for construction, the need to conserve historic buildings and height restrictions on new structures. "The historic center of Mexico City is in desperate need for a pragmatic make-over," says BNKR. The solution - build an inverted pyramid underneath the main plaza at the heart of the city.

Nieuwsfoto'sConflict,Filipijnen,Horizontaal,Islam,Oorlog,Taguig,Volwassen,Volwassen vrouwen,Wake - Religieus evenementPhotographer Dondi TawataoCollection: Getty Images News 2013 Dondi TawataoTAGUIG, PHILIPPINES - MARCH 06: Muslim women hold torches during a peace vigil in the Muslim community of Maharlika Village on March 6, 2013 in Taguig, Philippines. The peace rally was held to call for an end to hostilities in the ongoing crisis in Sabah. Fighting has broken out anew in the village of Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia as Malaysian security forces comb the coastal areas where the 'Royal Sultanate Army of Sulu' was thought to have been hiding. Around 200 armed followers of self-proclaimed Sultan of Sulu Jamalul Kiram III in the restive southern provinces of Sulu and Tawi-Tawi in Mindanao crossed over to neighboring Sabah last February 12 to lay claim to territory as ancestral land, triggering clashes with Malaysian security forces. Philippine diplomatic officials confirmed yesterday that security forces in Malaysia have conducted airstrikes and ground assault on the 'royal army' of the Sultanate of Sulu in Lahad Datu, Sabah. A total of 17 followers of self-proclaimed Sultan of Sulu Jamalul Kiram III and eight Malaysian security forces were killed in the villages of Lahad Datu and Semporna in Sabah.

One of the most widely grown and easily recognized wine grape varietals in the world is the Muscat, an ancient grape with an exceptional amount of versatility. For centuries, Muscat varietal grapes have been used all over Europe for the production of wonderfully fruity wines of many different shades and colors, which, with their strong 'grapey' flavor have come to be known as a quintessential fine wine grape. Their relatively high acidity also means they are ideal for the production of sparkling wines, and the fizzy Muscat wines of Italy are widely agreed to be amongst the best in the world. In more recent years, New World countries have shown a huge amount of flair when it comes to the Muscat grape, and have had plenty of success in allowing its natural and vibrant character to come through in the bottle.
Since the 18th century, California has been a hugely important and influential wine region, acting as a trailblazer for other New World wine regions and utilizing an important blend of traditional and contemporary practices, methods and techniques relating to their wine production. Split into four key areas the North Coast, the Central Coast, the South Coast and the Central Valley Californian wineries make the most of their ideal climate and rich variety of terrains in order to produce a fascinating range of wines made with a long list of different fine grape varietals. Today, the state has almost half a million acres under vine, and is one of the world's largest wine exporters, with Californian wines being drunk and enjoyed all across the globe.
For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.

Updated - Farewell LinkMoses, Hello Link Building Q&A
The whole LinkMoses shtick was also an accident. A few years ago someone at a conference made fun that I was still link building, like it was a disease. So I made lemonade out of the joke and turned it into a few thousand new inbound links. Don't mess with a link builder...
I've never intended to be an expert at anything, and the only reason I know so much about link building is that I had the sense or stupidity to stay focused on just that one skill as the web exploded around me. I could have done a thousand different things, but I stayed the link building course. I passed up a $1.3 million buyout offer from BCentral. I ignored Overtures from Overture. I didn't move to San Francisco, Seattle, or New York like everyone thought I should. I stayed right here in my garage office. I didn't write a book when the publishing houses called. Instead I kept doing what I liked. Studied web sites and links. Watched how content gets known, linked, found, by who, when, and where. I did a few industry shows back when just us geeks went. Back when real talent like Danny Sullivan was working his rear off at his kitchen table for just a couple hundred appreciative readers. Somehow my business strategy resulted in other authors writing about me in their books. Again, accidently successful. I was and remain to this day very happy doing what I do. I hope to continue being a content publicist/link builder for many more years.
For several reasons I'm a bit reflective right now. I'm also worn down a bit due to criticism, some deserved and some not, from folks who have have taken issue with my contributions to several link building expert articles. They say I don't give up any secrets. I don't provide worthwhile advice. My answers to link value factors questions are too vague.
Fair enough. This month I begin Link Building Best Practices - Q&A With Eric Ward.
I'll take questions from all comers and turn the best of them into posts where I provide my opinion on what the best practice should be for that particular topic. Send them to email@example.com. I don't pretend for one moment to believe that my best practices should be your best practices. I'm just using this avenue as a way to provide very specific advice and opinion developed over the course of building links for 1,000+ new and old sites from 1994 til today. Here's the link to the Link Building Best Practices RSS feed

Where Do We Go Now? (Et maintenant, on va ou?)
Drama, Comedy
Fed up with mourning their husbands and sons, the women of a remote Lebanese village, where Christians and Muslims live side by side, concoct radically inventive schemes to prevent sectarian violence from further corrupting their loved ones. To quash interreligious conflicts, the women are not above sabotaging the village's sole television, colluding with the priest and imam, nor enlisting a busload of sexy Ukrainian strippers to distract their men.

Fact of the day
Information is the most powerful weapon.
Fact N°
Driving a Porsche communicates that you're interested in uncommitted sex.
Men's conspicuous spending -- the study's authors used a Porsche as their example -- suggests that flashiness indicates an interest only in flings, not relationships, according to a study by Rice University, UT San Antonio and the University of Minnesota. The flashiness does in fact make a man more sexually desirable to women than owning a functional and inexpensive item does: women who participated in the study found a Porsche-driving man more attractive as a date, but not as a candidate for a serious relationship.
Fact N°
Type 2 diabetes is reversible.
Type 2 diabetes, or adult-onset diabetes, can be reversed, according to a Newcastle-University study. The study is recent, so its long-term results have yet to be examined, but of the 11 subjects whom researchers followed, seven were free of diabetes three months after the study's conclusion. The study restricted patients to extremely low-calorie diets (600 calories) of nonstarchy vegetables, eliminating fat in the pancreas and restoring ordinary insulin secretion.
Fact N°
Our predisposition for social eye contact is partially genetic.
A study in the journal Molecular Autism has found that the CNR1 gene can determine people's inclination to look at happy faces. Researchers found a correlation between two naturally occurring mutations in the CNR1 gene and how long volunteers spent watching the smiles and eyes of the happy faces they were shown in video clips. "This is the first study to have shown that how much we gaze at faces is influenced by our genetic makeup," explained head researcher Bhismadev Chakrabarti. "If replicated, it has profound implications for our understanding of the drive to socialize."
Fact N°
It rains and snows more near airports.
Planes sometimes fly through clouds containing droplets of supercooled water that has remained liquid below its freezing point; in fact, planes have de-icing systems precisely to avoid ice forming on their wings when they do this. When the planes fly through these clouds, their cooling effect leaves behind ice, "seeding" the clouds and leading to increased precipitation. According to Andrew Heymsfield of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, prop planes have a 6% chance of inadvertently seeding clouds; jet planes, a 2% to 3% chance.
Fact N°
Babies remember music they've heard in the womb.
A Leicester University study has demonstrated that, for a year after birth, babies recognize music they've heard as far back as three months before birth. The study tested 11 babies whose mothers had played them specific pieces of music while they were in the womb; the babies showed a preference for the music they had heard before, compared to similar-sounding music they hadn't. A control group showed no preference for one piece or the other.
Fact N°
Volkswagen has developed a self-driving "Temporary Auto Pilot" system.
Volkswagen's Temporary Auto Pilot (TAP) can maneuver cars semi-automatically at up to 80 miles per hour, bundling existing automatic functions (such as adaptive cruise control) into a platform that makes use of radar sensors and laser scanners. Though the automated "Pilot Mode" can be overridden by the driver at any time, it otherwise aims to keep a safe distance behind the car ahead; it adjusts speed and position according to oncoming curves and road markers (as well as speed limits).
Fact N°
Diet soda leads to weight gain.
A University of Texas study of 474 participants found a 70% increase in waist circumference in diet-soda drinkers compared to people who didn't drink diet soda. In subjects who drank more than two diet sodas a day, that increase over non-drinkers went up to a whopping 500%. Previous research suggests that artificial sweeteners lead to an expectation for a caloric payload that the body never actually receives, resulting in an increased appetite instead of satiety (as well as increasing blood glucose levels).

- Black hole production and graviton emission in models with large extra dimensions (2007)
- This thesis studies the possible production of microscopical black holes and the emission of graviational radiation under the assumption of large extra dimensions. We derive observables for the Large Hadron Collider and for ultra high energetic cosmic rays.
- Signatures for black hole production from hadronic observables at the Large Hadron Collider (2006)
- The concept of Large Extra Dimensions (LED) provides a way of solving the Hierarchy Problem which concerns the weakness of gravity compared with the strong and electro-weak forces. A consequence of LED is that miniature Black Holes (mini-BHs) may be produced at the Large Hadron Collider in p+p collisions. The present work uses the CHARYBDIS mini-BH generator code to simulate the hadronic signal which might be expected in a mid-rapidity particle tracking detector from the decay of these exotic objects if indeed they are produced. An estimate is also given for Pb+Pb collisions.
- Mini black holes at the LHC : discovery through di-jet suppression, mono-jet emission and a supersonic boom in the quark-gluon plasma in ALICE, ATLAS and CMS (2006)
- We examine experimental signatures of TeV-mass black hole formation in heavy ion collisions at the LHC. We find that the black hole production results in a complete disappearance of all very high p_T (> 500 GeV) back-to-back correlated di-jets of total mass M > M_f ~ 1 TeV. We show that the subsequent Hawking-decay produces multiple hard mono-jets and discuss their detection. We study the possibility of cold black hole remnant (BHR) formation of mass ~ M_f and the experimental distinguishability of scenarios with BHRs and those with complete black hole decay. Finally we point out that a Heckler-Kapusta-Hawking plasma may form from the emitted mono-jets. In this context we present new simulation data of Mach shocks and of the evolution of initial conditions until the freeze-out.
- Gravitational radiation from elastic particle scattering in models with extra dimensions (2005)
- In this paper we derive a formula for the energy loss due to elastic N to N particle scattering in models with extra dimensions that are compactified on a radius R. In contrast to a previous derivation we also calculate additional terms that are suppressed by factors of frequency over compactification radius. In the limit of a large compactification radius R those terms vanish and the standard result for the non compactified case is recovered.
- Gravitational radiation from ultra high energy cosmic rays in models with large extra dimensions (2006)
- The effects of classical gravitational radiation in models with large extra dimensions are investigated for ultra high energy cosmic rays (CRs). The cross sections are implemented into a simulation package (SENECA) for high energy hadron induced CR air showers. We predict that gravitational radiation from quasi-elastic scattering could be observed at incident CR energies above 10^9 GeV for a setting with more than two extra dimensions. It is further shown that this gravitational energy loss can alter the energy reconstruction for CR energies E_CR > 5 10^9 GeV.
- Black hole remnants at the LHC (2005)
- Within the scenario of large extra dimensions, the Planck scale is lowered to values soon accessible. Among the predicted effects, the production of TeV mass black holes at the LHC is one of the most exciting possibilities. Though the final phases of the black hole's evaporation are still unknown, the formation of a black hole remnant is a theoretically well motivated expectation. We analyze the observables emerging from a black hole evaporation with a remnant instead of a final decay. We show that the formation of a black hole remnant yields a signature which differs substantially from a final decay. We find the total transverse momentum of the black hole event to be significantly dominated by the presence of a remnant mass providing a strong experimental signature for black hole remnant formation.
- Trapping black hole remnants (2005)
- Large extra dimensions lower the Planck scale to values soon accessible. The production of TeV mass black holes at the LHC is one of the most exciting predictions. However, the final phases of the black hole's evaporation are still unknown and there are strong indications that a black hole remnant can be left. Since a certain fraction of such objects would be electrically charged, we argue that they can be trapped. In this paper, we examine the occurrence of such charged black hole remnants. These trapped remnants are of high interest, as they could be used to closely investigate the evaporation characteristics. Due to the absence of background from the collision region and the controlled initial state, the signal would be very clear. This would allow to extract information about the late stages of the evaporation process with high precision.

And ever since I first spoke those words in November, I've already felt a modicum of equanimity return to me, just for knowing some relaxation was coming down the road.
There are some advantages to being married to an ever-traveling lovely husband. Between his hotel points and his airline miles and his enthusiastic spirit, he set me up quite nicely. I'm going to Puerto Rico, and I'm flying first class, baby. And I'm going: By Myself.
For the next four days, for perhaps the only four days this year, I'm top of my list. I'm all of my list.
Hasta la vista. Be back Thursday night.

People & Business :: Earnings/Finance Arkema bets on Asian, North American markets; on track with 2016 road map10:26 AM MST | March 1, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez in Paris Arkema is betting strongly on the Asian and North American markets, focusing its investments on the high-performance materials and coating solutions areas, to remain on track toward its 2016 strategic targets.

Overall | 3.9 |

- Durable
- Good fit for wide feet
- Runs wide
As an update to the Speed Pro, the Speed Pro Lite joins the Head lineup as a lightweight performance shoe. By cutting the weight, Head has given us a shoe that allows aggressive footwork and easy movement around the court. The Speed Pro Lite is comfortable out of the box and provides responsive cushioning for the player looking for comfort without sacrificing performance. Despite the high level of comfort, our playtesters felt the toe box was a little roomy. The mesh on the upper provided good ventilation for most of our playtesters, with no overheating or excessive sweating. Issues arose due to foot movement within the shoe causing a few blisters, but in general our testers felt well supported. Sole durability was high and toe durability also met expectations. Lightweight and easy to move around the court in, the Head Speed Pro Lite lived up to its name.
Comfort - Score: 3.9
The Head Speed Lite offers responsive cushioning and out of the box comfort, however, it was a little roomy widthwise for some playtesters. Granville liked the comfort from the start. He said, "The Speed Pro Lite has a nice first feel, not too stiff with good cushioning. The shoe fits a bit tight for me, but it contours to my foot nicely (as most Head shoes do)."
Jason found lasting comfort, saying, "I thought the overall comfort was very good from the very first playtest till the last. The uppers flexed in all the right places for me so I didn't experience any pinching. The cushioning was a bit firmer than I would've liked, but I did like that responsive and low-to-the-ground feel that came from it."
Despite finding the toe box a bit roomy, Troy noticed how pliable the shoe was when he first tried it on. He said, "There was good comfort out of the box. When I took these shoes to the court I began to realize how roomy they are and noticed that my narrow feet had a lot of room to move around. Because I had a lot of wiggle room, my feet were sliding around and rubbing a lot in the toe area. Typically I wear two pairs of socks with all my tennis shoes, but for these to fit properly I had to wear three pairs of socks. Once I was able to get these shoes to fit properly they were very comfortable. This shoe rides pretty low to the ground, so there wasn't a lot of sole cushioning compared to shoes like the Asics Gel Resolution 4 or the Nike Air Court Ballistec 4.3. The upper of this shoe was pliable, which helped with comfort, so I could cinch the laces nice and tight even with three pairs of socks on!"
Ventilation - Score: 3.7
Some playtesters complimented the breathability, while others wished it were a little better. Impressed with the Speed Lite's ventilation was Jason. He said, "The noticeable use of mesh in the uppers seemed to translate to actual results. My feet never felt like they were going to overheat. I was able to wear them all day, after playing, and feel fine heat wise."
Troy thought the design should have increased the ventilation, saying, "I was surprised to find that the ventilation of this shoe wasn't very good since it's a lightweight shoe and appears to have a lot of mesh in the upper. Obviously, I expected my feet to get hot when I played in three pairs of socks, but I noticed my feet getting hot when wearing these shoes casually with just one pair of socks. Most of the time ventilation isn't an issue for me, and in this case it didn't necessarily affect my performance on court."
Although the shoes had good ventilation, Granville thought there could have been improvements. He said, "Looking back on this test pair I would not call them particularly cool on my feet, but they aren't hot shoes, either. The mesh panels do help a bit (just wear them barefoot for a while if you want to feel it). Like most shoes in this range, they do offer better than average ventilation - but it's not really a factor in my overall impressions.'
Arch Support - Score: 3.8
With arch support being around medium to low, none of our playtesters experienced any discomfort. Granville had no issues because he adjusted the shoes. He said, "It's just your average insole with little to no arch support and was a non-issue for this tester as I use arch support insoles."
Troy thought the arch of this shoe was just right. He said, "It seemed to be just about a medium to slightly lower than medium fit, and I never really had to think about it while playing, which is always a plus."
Jason felt that the arches were lower than our listed medium. He explained, "I think it might have something to do with the fact that the shoes are so wide and I'm not sitting right on top of the arch."
Foot Support/Stability - Score: 3.8
Some playtesters experienced uncomfortable foot movement within the shoe, but others found the support to be great, particularly on lateral movements. Granville found the fit of the shoes provided great support, saying, "My test shoes had plenty of width, even when I wore ankle braces. I had no rollover fears, even when I was on the dead run and reversing directions. The shoe fits my foot well. The materials offer a nice stable wrap. The low ride enhances that stable feel."
Jason wanted to give the Speed Pro Lite two scores in this category. He said, "I'd give the stability a 4 because the chassis was stable with almost every foot plant. I never had that my-ankles-are-going-to-roll-over feel, so that was a major plus. But I'd score this shoe a 2.5 for support due to the extremely wide fit. With every start/stop action I could feel my feet slide around inside the shoes. I have a wide (2E) foot as it is, and this shoe was too wide even for me. I also couldn't cinch down the uppers enough to get a snug, secure fit. That, along with the width, really had my foot sliding, which resulted in blisters."
Troy really enjoyed how well he was moving laterally in these shoes, saying, "Once I dialed in the fit by wearing multiple socks, the fit was pretty snug and I felt comfortable making aggressive cuts without any uncomfortable rubbing. The shoe being low to the ground provided a lot of court feel, and I felt this added to the lateral support and gave me more confidence that I wasn't going to roll an ankle. Out of the box my foot would slide around a lot, but by dialing in the fit I found a lot of support and felt that I could have confidence in playing a match in these shoes."
Overall Sole Durability - Score: 4.1
The durability met the high standards of our testers, with no premature wearing or balding. Jason thought the construction of the Speed Lite was really good, saying, "I was pretty impressed with the Head HyBrasion rubber compound. I wore these shoes for about 15 hours and still have plenty of tread left. Only slight balding on the medial forefoot, which is normally my high wear area."
Surprised with the durability because of the Speed Lite's weight was Troy. He said, "I found that the overall outsole was more durable than I would have figured considering this is a lightweight, speed-oriented shoe. I found the most wear near the balls of my feet and near the tip of the toe, which is always the case with my shoes. The rubber compound held up pretty well throughout the test. It was even better than the Head Prestige Pro II. They both have Head's HyBrasion rubber compound, but this shoe seemed to have a more durable sole than the Prestige Pro II."
Granville agreed with Troy. He said, "These shoes seemed to provide adequate durability considering the weight of the shoe. Wear was evenly spread over the entire outsole."
Toe Durability - Score: 4.1
Our crew was happy to find that the Speed Pro Lite experienced no premature wear around the toe. Granville found the durability to be adequate for most aggressive movers. He said, "Unless you are rolling over to the top of the shoe, you will be fine. There's plenty of material in the toes to cover all but the worst toe draggers."
Troy agreed, adding, "I found the rubber compound that covered the tip of the toe to hold up strong. The toe also had a toe guard above the rubber outsole that provided good durability when I dragged my toe, like when I was moving forward to hit a volley."
Traction - Score: 4.1
Our testers had varied opinions when it came to traction. Not a fan, Troy found the traction to be mediocre during this playtest. He said, "I found that the rubber outsole was pretty firm and tough, which didn't necessarily translate into good grip on the court. Most of the time I moved laterally with a lot of confidence, but there were times that I lost my footing when making a quick change of direction. I was finding this sliding to be a detriment when grinding from the baseline. Then there were times when I was moving forward to get a drop shot that I could actually slide into the shot, and this was a benefit, as I could come at the ball with a little more acceleration!"
Jason enjoyed the traction, saying, "Because they flex well, I felt like I was getting optimum contact with the court when I took off for a ball. Even when our indoor court was dusty and dirty, I had very few issues with slippage. The solid traction had me moving with confidence."
Granville had a mixed but positive reaction. He said, "These shoes seem to walk that fine line between being too durable (hard) and too sticky (soft) - it was a good blend of both for me. On occasion I was able to ease into a controlled slide when recovering from a dead-run."
Weight - Score: 4.4
Lightweight and easy to move around the court in, the Head Speed Lite lived up to its name. Feeling light on his toes was Troy. He said, "Typically I don't prefer lightweight shoes because they usually sacrifice a lot in the comfort and support categories. With this shoe it was a pleasant surprise to find a lightweight package that was fairly durable and provided good lateral support, even though there was a lack in overall cushioning."
Granville said, "This shoe looks heavier than it is. Well under my 16 ounce per foot rule, this shoe really is on the lighter side of the shoe mix. And with the upper materials and outsole being so tough - I'd give this shoe very high marks for being light weight and maintaining performance."
"True to its name, I thought this shoe did feel light and fast," said Jason. "The low-to-the-ground feel also helped with that speedy sensation, but the weight was definitely the key ingredient."
Overall - Score: 3.9
Granville - "Good cushioning is a primary feature. Durable materials also make this an appealing choice."
Troy - "The low-to-the-ground feel gave me confidence in my movements. It was light and it had decent durability, which is not a very common combination."
Jason - "Most everything about these shoes impressed me, but especially the weight, ventilation and traction."
Granville - "Not a fan of the color I tested. I prefer the White/Black color-up."
Troy - "The fit was definitely too wide for me, although I did find a solution to that by triple socking! The traction, oddly, wasn't as good as the Head Prestige Pro II, even though they supposedly possess the same Head HyBrasion rubber compound."
Jason - "Even with wide feet, these shoes were too wide for me. And because of that, they lacked the foot support I need."
Comparing the Speed Pro Lite to other shoes they've worn, our testers said:
Granville - "This is a good representation of Head shoes overall: Functional (bordering on utilitarian), stable, due to the design and materials, and comfortable for post tennis BBQ and blue jeans."
Troy - "Overall, the closest shoe that comes to mind is the Nike Zoom Breathe 2K10. This Speed Pro Lite fits wider and has a more durable outsole, but in other categories played pretty similarly to the 2K10. Compared to the Head Prestige Pro II, which was the last Head shoe I tested, this shoe was lighter and actually seemed to have a more durable outsole. The Prestige Pro II had better cushioning, and the rubber outsole felt like it was better for traction, or more grippier."
Jason - "It reminds me of a lighter, better version of the Head Mojo shoe."
Playtester Foot Types:
Granville - Narrow width / Low arch
Troy - Narrow width / Medium arch
Jason - Wide width / Low arch

Wife of hepatitis C victim, claiming she's now infected, sues Exeter Hospital
The suit said he became infected with hepatitis C through Kwiatkowski, who has admitted that while working at Exeter Hospital he would "swap out" the pain killer fentanyl by taking a syringe of the drug and replacing it with a syringe containing saline. He would inject the drug and then refill the syringe with saline. The syringe's dirty needle was then reused on unsuspecting patients.
Linda Sanborn was tested for the virus last year, but the test result was negative at the time, according to Kleinman of Bouchard, Kleinman & Wright of Manchester.
The suit was brought against the hospital, the American Healthcare Service Association, Triage Staffing Inc., the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists, and Maxim Healthcare Services Inc. The suit accuses all of the defendants of negligence.
Kwiatkowski told investigators that he swapped out fentanyl-filled syringes about 50 times while working at Exeter Hospital and did the same at other hospitals where he worked.
