The beginning of both Colonial America and of the United States of America should be required visiting, and this area is home to them both. To keep the chronology straight, visit Virginia's "Historic Triangle," in the order of Jamestown, Williamsburg, and then Yorktown. Although Jamestown is somewhat overshadowed by the much-larger Williamsburg, Jamestown was the first permanent English settlement (1607) in North America, and celebrated its momentous quadricentennial—400th anniversary—in 2007.
Just a short drive along the tree-lined Colonial Parkway is Williamsburg, which subsequently grew into the political and economic center of the Virginia Colony. The 301 acres of modern-day Colonial Williamsburg contain re-created and restored structures peopled with costumed interpreters. Everything from momentous political events to blacksmithing is portrayed. Completing the "Historic Triangle," is Yorktown, 14 mi away from Williamsburg, the site of the battle that ended the war for independence from England. Several 18th- and 19th-century plantations lie west of Williamsburg, along the James River. South of Yorktown are Newport News, the shipbuilding capital of Virginia, and Hampton. To see the rest of this waterfront area of Virginia, you can cross the James River at Hampton and visit Norfolk, Portsmouth, and, to the east, the Virginia Beach resort area.

Audie Award Nominee, Fantasy, 2013
Acclaimed author Michael J. Sullivan created instant best sellers with his spellbinding Riyria Revelations series. This first volume introduces Royce Melborn and Hadrian Blackwater, two enterprising thieves who end up running for their lives when they're framed for the death of the king. Trapped in a conspiracy bigger than they can imagine, their only hope is unraveling an ancient mystery - before it's too late.
Theft of Swords contains The Crown Conspiracy and Avempartha, books 1 and 2 of Riyria Revelations.
©2011 Michael J. Sullivan (P)2012 Recorded Books, LLC
"Michael Sullivan is great entertainer."
Certainly at the very top.
'A Tale of Two Cities' 'The Count of Monte Cristo' 'The Walking Drum'
Great storytelling and character development. Great performance and a good ending!
Entire trilogy, even with its great length length, was great.
Laughed often.
Look forward to more books like it and a 'Lord of the Rings' type movie series.
Wake up Hollywood.
"Why do I need to sleep?"
Absolutely! From the first 15 minutes I was hooked. The only reason I didn't finish this book in one day was the need for sleep.
The dialog between characters is fantastic. I really care what happens to the people in this book and can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.
"Made Me Want To Get The Other Books In The Series"
While I like a book whose story is started, developed and resolved within a single volume, a series of books, be it a trilogy or simply multiple volumes following a single character or group of characters, always makes me smile.... That is, when the opening story is one that holds my attention and makes me want more.
When I finish a lead book in a series I'm excited because I now have a stronger sense of what book I may choose to spend my credit on next.
Theft of Swords was a great start to the Riyria Trilogy. The protagonists were fun to get to know and the storyline moved along without too many hitches. Occasionally attributing a comment to a character who isn't present and continuity errors do bother me, but they were few enough that it did not hamper the telling of a good tale.
Highly recommended if you're into fantasy. Can't wait to dig in to Book 2.
"I was hooked only after 15 minutes"
Thank you Audible for suggesting this Author
I am a fan of Robert Jordan since 2002 and he through emails suggested authors like Jim Butcher, Lackey and many more. I put Michael Sullivan up there in my favorite author's category
Tim Reynolds did an outstanding job and I hope Audible doesn't mess the series up by changing readers.
Yes I would but unfortunately my commute isn't that long. I did however take the long way home to finish book 1.
"Recommended for fans of Locke Lamora"
I grabbed this book when it was on sale and loved it. It has a similar feel as Scott Lynch's Gentlemen Bastard series. I definitely plan to listen to the second book!
"A very fun story"
Anyone who likes sci-fi / fantasy should try this one. That is the genre I listen to the most and this was a great purchase. If you listen to books while exercising or doing yardwork, this will make the time go by. The author tells a good story without being predictable, and the reader brings the characters to life.
Kingkiller Chronicles: The Name of the Wind is analogous; Pathfinder by Orson Scott Card has some similarities; Eye of the World readers would like it; and Game of Thrones fans would most likely enjoy it. This is a more light-hearted book than most of those and in that vein, levity is hard to find. It is not a comedy, just a tale that does not take itself too seriously.
The entrance to the hidden prison. It was not for the drama, it was because of the images created. That scene was so well described it stood out as innovative and memorable. I do not want to say more because part of the fun is the discovery for future readers.
Theft of Swords is a great name but I am not coming up with a tag line at the moment.
No additional comments.
"My new favorite author"
It has just the right amount of action, character building and humor to make you never want to stop listening.
Miron the monk. (I don't know if I am spelling his name correctly. When I listen to, instead of read, a book I am often surprised when I see the names of characters in print.) He has such a great personality. He reminds me of my father.
Everything. I am searching for other books he has done. He made the characters come to life without over doing it like so many performers do. Very well done. I hope he does the next series coming out in August. I am usually very disappointed when a new reader takes over a series.
Yes, but the length of it made that an impossibility. I love long books. The author gets to fully define his characters. These three books in the series are actually six books combined into three volumes.
As my headline says: this is my new favorite author. I still love Brandon Sanderson and Brent Weeks, but until they come out with more, Michael is on top.
"Good Listen"
I bought this because it was on sale and am thoroughly pleased. It was an engaging story with great characters brought to life through talented narration. I especially liked the character of Hadrian and his relationship with Royce, which often added humor to the story. I listened to all three books in a week (which is impressive for me since I work full time and they were unabridged versions). I am looking forward to the prequels and hope they have the same narrator.
"Good story, Great reader"
The depth of the characters, while seeming a bit simple at first, is quite very well done. This increases as the story goes on through books 2 & 3.
Not a looming epic like A Wheel of Time or A Song of Ice and Fire. More like a Shannara book, or a D&D novel by Weis and Hickman.
Only the continuation of this story. He is excellent.
Not quite, but close. I found myself foregoing some y favorite activities to listen to this instead.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

The representative I spoke to was nice and helpful. I was looking online for the best prices for partial dentures for my mom and found some prices at Dental Care Tijuana for 1,307 pesos. I thought was an excellent price, so the operator had them schedule me an appointment the same day.
When I got to the dentist and my mom had the consult it turned out to be 250 dollars. I told the doctor that online through Dental Departures it had it listed as this price. His secretary got online and verified that this was the price. He said this had to be a mistake because not even the laboratory will cover this price for dentures, he would have to pay out of his pocket. Which we were totally fine with the consult of 250 dollars.
Everything turned out great, doctor was great, staff and turn around time was 1 day for the dentures when everyone else's was 6 days.
The only thing was the prices that Dental Departures had listed.
Thank you-
Written on: 06/01/2014
We are terribly sorry to hear that the price for partial dentures at Dental Care Tijuana was incorrect. We have changed the price to the correct price of 250 USD.
Dental Departures conducts regular price audits on all of our global dental clinics to ensure our prices are best and more accurate prices on the web. We obviously messed up with the price of these partial dentures at Dental Care Tijuana.
We're happy to hear that you had a great dental experience with Dental Care Tijuana (after the price difference was overcome).
Please contact Dental Departures via chat, email or via toll free number 24/7 and we can provide you a credit towards you next visit to the dentist to apologize for our inaccurate price.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 29— Intel plans on Monday to introduce two versions of its microprocessors for corporate and scientific markets.
Intel, which is based in Santa Clara, Calif., has been trying to offer a product line that has separate chip designs for desktop computers and corporate server computers.
The company's 64-bit microprocessor family, called Itanium, has a different design and is intended to use different software than its 32-bit Pentium microprocessor, which is the dominant chip in the personal computer market.
The company's chief competitor, Advanced Micro Devices, recently introduced a 64-bit microprocessor called Opteron, which offers compatible 64-bit and 32-bit computing.
The new Intel chips include the second generation of its Itanium microprocessor, which the company originally made in partnership with Hewlett-Packard.
Until now, it has been hard for the Itanium to show a significant cost-performance advantage over the Pentium chips.

The Benefits of Multiple Pets by Purina Print Tags: Adoption, Dogs, Interspecies, Introductions, Multiples The following article is courtesy of Purina. Thinkstock If one four-legged friend brings so much joy into your life, surely more than one boosts the fun, right? While there are compelling benefits to having multiple pets, there are also important considerations to weigh before making the decision to bring additional cats or dogs into your home. When the decision is properly informed, it ensures the multi-pet household dynamic works well for you. More Companionship for You Cats and dogs can be loyal friends. They have a special way of comforting you and bringing a smile to your face, even when you're not in the best mood. They keep you company, play with you, snuggle you and make you laugh. Multiple pets mean more soft fur to run your hands through and more companionship, even when one of your fuzzy buddies is off on her own. More Companionship for Your Pets You can't always be around to entertain your cat or dog. Two or more pets can provide additional companionship for each other. Multiple compatible pets play together, helping stave off under-stimulation and boredom that can lead to behavioral problems. This enriching relationship may also reduce or prevent separation anxiety and ease your conscience when you have to go out. However, more pets don't add up to a bandage for separation anxiety; you may simply end up with multiple pets sharing the condition, as trainer Kathy Diamond Davis cautions on VeterinaryPartner.com. Of course, the antics of pets playing together is a great source of amusement. Keep in mind, though, that not all pets get along well, and they may even pose dangers to each other if they fight. Increased Socialization for Your Pets Socializing pets with other companion animals – especially when they're kittens and puppies – is essential to their emotional development. Cats and dogs need experiences with others to become confident, adaptable and accepting. Socialization teaches your pet to interact with other cats, dogs and people appropriately and with less anxiety, explains Veterinary Pet Insurance. While single-pet parents have to find socialization opportunities out of the home, multi-pet parents have a built-in socializing environment; however socialization with less familiar cats and dogs is still important. Increased Socialization for You More pets get you out and interacting more with other people. Because dogs should sometimes be walked and taken out for excursions on their own, having more than one requires extra trips around the neighborhood and to the dog park, where you can chat with neighbors and other pet parents. Multiple pets create more opportunities for trips to the groomer, pet spas or classes and other public places where you meet people who share your love of cats and dogs. Improved Mood and Health One pet provides a variety of health benefits, and more than one can compound the effects. You get exercise walking and playing with your pets, which promotes a healthier mind and body; the more pets, the more activity. Among other benefits, sharing your home with furry friends reduces stress, helps lower blood pressure and cholesterol, enhances your mood and lowers the risk of heart attack and stroke, notes Woman's Day. Decreased Allergies in Children Pets are great for kids in so many ways, and as the National Institutes of Health states, children raised in multi-pet households are less likely to develop allergic conditions. As reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association, kids living with more than one cat or dog are at reduced risk for hypersensitivities to common allergens, such as animals, grass, ragweed and dust mites. Enhanced Development for Multiple Children Cats and dogs aren't just beloved companions and sources of comfort to kids. They teach them responsibility, encourage emotional development, promote a nurturing instinct and strengthen family bonds, as Parents Magazine details. In homes with more than one child, having one pet per child helps prevent competition for attention and affection, allows each kid to develop a special bond and provides opportunities for each child to have more involvement. Considerations Just as the decision to share your home with one cat or dog cannot be made lightly, the decision to take on multiple pets calls for a good deal of thought and planning. Some things to keep in mind include: Not all cats and dogs get along with all other cats and dogs – do research and take individual personalities into account New cats or dogs must be introduced into the home and to other pets in a carefully controlled manner Most experts recommend putting at least one to two years between getting cats or dogs Pets of the opposite sex often accept each other more readily Spaying and neutering are even more important to prevent pregnancies, dangerous competitive mating behaviors and other complications Pets may fight over food, toys and turf Groups of dogs can revert to a pack mentality Cats and dogs require a year or more to feel comfortable in a new home Pets should spend time apart, or they may bond strongly to the exclusion of bonding with human family members Pet parents must spend time one-on-one with each companion animal Training needs to occur individually Costs increase significantly with additional pets – you pay for more food, toys, bedding, litter, other supplies, medications, veterinary appointments, grooming, boarding, etc. It's more complicated to travel with more than one companion animal Two or more pets of the same age may develop age-related health problems – which can be expensive, time-consuming and draining – around the same time and may pass close together, creating a massive emotional burden Share this Article: Print

Often described as a relic from the age of the dinosaurs, they're also one of the oldest animals on earth, having existed largely unchanged for 120 million years. The leatherback's most arresting characteristic is its sheer size, reaching a length of about 2.4m and a weight of 500kg. Its front flippers are similarly huge – as much as 2.7m long – and it's these which propel the leatherback on its long-distance migrations (they're known to breed off the West Indies, Florida, the northeastern coast of South America, Senegal, Madagascar, Sri Lanka and Malaysia). Leatherbacks are also unique among turtles in having a skeleton that is not firmly attached to a shell, but which consists of a carapace made up of hundreds of irregular bony plates, covered with a leathery skin. It's also the only turtle that can regulate its own body temperature, maintaining a constant 18°C even in the freezing ocean depths, and withstanding immense pressures of over 1500 pounds per square inch as it dives to depths of up to 1200m. Since the 1973 Convention on the International Trade of Endangered Species, it is illegal to harvest green, hawksbill, leatherback and loggerhead turtles. Unlike olive ridleys or hawksbills, leatherbacks are not hunted by humans for food – their flesh has an unpleasantly oily taste – though poachers still steal eggs for their alleged aphrodisiac powers. Even so, leatherbacks still face many human-created hazards. They can choke on discarded plastic bags left floating in the ocean (which they mistake for jellyfish, on which they feed), and often get caught in longline fishing nets or wounded by boat propellers – all added to a loss of nesting habitats caused by beachfront development and the fact that, even in normal conditions, only one in every 2500 leatherback hatchlings makes it to maturity. The number of nesting females at Las Baulas alone dropped from 1646 in 1988 to 215 in 1997, although numbers have since increased to over 800. At Las Baulas, authorities have established a hatchling "farm" to allow hatchlings to be born and make their trip to the ocean under less perilous conditions than would normally prevail, though this will not affect adult mortality, which is believed to be the root cause of the drop in leatherback numbers. While the population is healthier than it was fifteen years ago, it continues to be plagued by longline fishing, large-scale rubbish dumping, ocean contamination and other factors contributing to fertility problems. If you're interested in volunteering, Earthwatch (whttp://www.earthwatch.org) have run conservation holidays on Playas Grande and Langosta for a number of years, documenting numbers of nesting turtles and their activity patterns.

Taglines: And you thought monogamy was hard…
Storyline: For some married couples, sex is an obsession that overwhelms their belief in strict monogamy. The ability to act out their sexual fantasies is more important than upholding any convention of love or marriage. Sex with Strangers paints an authentically intimate portrait of three such couples, from the euphoria of fantasies fulfilled to the desperation of splintering relationships, showing how their lives are profoundly affected by the lifestyle they lead. James and Theresa, a couple in their thirties, use their motor home as a pleasure palace travelling from club to club seducing couples wherever they go. Calvin and Sarah are thinking about getting married when they meet Julie, who doesn't swing, and isn't bisexual – until she falls for Calvin. Psychodrama almost displaces sex for Shannon and Gerard, who are passionate about swinging, even as they question whether the lifestyle is really for them. With unprecedented access to their lives, Sex with Strangers explores the reality of living out one's fantasies and offers an insightful story of open sexuality, communication, joy, jealousy and sometimes disappointment.

Custom Built Truck Saves Vehicles from Landfill

For eight months, the five person auto mechanic shop at Pechanga Resort & Casino carefully spent any minute of downtime building a small-profile service truck completely from scrap. In the process, they saved four outdated resort passenger shuttles from hitting the scrapyard indefinitely. Read More

Some hams, being cheep, go to a hamfest flea market and buy the least expensive PL259s they can find. My "professional" suggestion is that the Amphenol 83-1SP, which is mass-produced in Mexico, is the best choice. It has a silver plated plug and a nickle plated shell. Another good choice is the PL259 made by Andros in Rochester NY. Both connectors will work without modification with all RG213 type cables, including LMR400 and 9913. 73, Craig Clark, K1QX RADIOWARE AND RADIO BOOKSTORE PO BOX 209 RINDGE NH 03461 603 899 6957 WWW.RADIO-WARE.COM _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list email@example.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |

Things are going to get much worse for GOLFSMITH!-----More Americans Are Giving Up Golf By PAUL VITELLOPublished: February 21, 2008HAUPPAUGE, N.Y. — The men gathered in a new golf clubhouse here a couple of weeks ago circled the problem from every angle, like caddies lining up a shot out of the rough."We have to change our mentality," said Richard Rocchio, a public relations consultant. "The problem is time," offered Walter Hurney, a real estate developer. "There just isn't enough time. Men won't spend a whole day away from their family anymore."The total number of people who play has declined or remained flat each year since 2000, dropping to about 26 million from 30 million, according to the National Golf Foundation and the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association.More troubling to golf boosters, the number of people who play 25 times a year or more fell to 4.6 million in 2005 from 6.9 million in 2000, a loss of about a third. The industry now counts its core players as those who golf eight or more times a year. That number, too, has fallen, but more slowly: to 15 million in 2006 from 17.7 million in 2000, according to the National Golf Foundation. The disappearance of golfers over the past several years is part of a broader decline in outdoor activities — including tennis, swimming, hiking, biking and downhill skiing — according to a number of academic and recreation industry studies.A 2006 study by the United States Tennis Association, which has battled the trend somewhat successfully with a forceful campaign to recruit young players, found that punishing hurricane seasons factored into the decline of play in the South, while the soaring popularity of electronic games and newer sports like skateboarding was diminishing the number of new tennis players everywhere.Rodney B. Warnick, a professor of recreation studies and tourism at the University of Massachusetts, said that the aging population of the United States was probably a part of the problem, too, and that "there is a younger generation that is just not as active."But golf, a sport of long-term investors — both those who buy the expensive equipment and those who build the princely estates on which it is played — has always seemed to exist in a world above the fray of shifting demographics. Not anymore.Jim Kass, the research director of the National Golf Foundation, an industry group, said the gradual but prolonged slump in golf has defied the adage, "Once a golfer, always a golfer." About three million golfers quit playing each year, and slightly fewer than that have been picking it up. A two-year campaign by the foundation to bring new players into the game, he said, "hasn't shown much in the way of results." "The man in the street will tell you that golf is booming because he sees Tiger Woods on TV," Mr. Kass said. "But we track the reality. The reality is, while we haven't exactly tanked, the numbers have been disappointing for some time."

31 year old man | Washington, DC, USA | Seeking women 23-34 within 10 miles
Hey! So I'm pretty new to DC having recently moved from NYC for work here. (I must admit though, NYC is still my heartthrob) I'm doing my residency for medicine here at a Washington hospital. So this pretty much keeps me busy during the day. I've met some amazing people since moving here, but it's still pretty difficult to meet people outside my realm of work. Plus, I don't mind meeting more amazing people. So I'm on here to see if i can meet someone that I get along with really well. On weekends, I usually like to go out and hang out with my guy friends. This usually involves bourbon and beer at some locally convenient bar/lounge a la U street or Dupont. I just recently discovered H-street, which I will be making more appearances at once my motorcycle is fixed from the pretty bad winter we just had here. But all in all, I also enjoy just being a couch potato after work unwinding with a good book or a watching a movie (#hitchcock, #wesanderson). And just like everyone else on this site: I'm an easy going guy, and I just try to go with the flow. haha

Tyrion Kills Shae on Game of Thrones — Did He Go Too Far?
Warning: This article contains major spoilers for the Game of Thrones Season 4 finale. Click away now if you don't want to know! Going into Game of Thrones Season 4, we expected the writers to alter Shae's (Sibel Kekilli) plotline. After all, the show had built her up as someone who had a genuine connection with Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage), not the shallow, money-driven girl she was in the books. But in the end things played out more or less as they did in the books: Shae turned on Tyrion during his trial, ended up in Tywin's (Charles Dance) bed, and died at the hands of her former love. If anything, Tyrion's murder of Shae was even more intense and dramatic on the show, precisely because their love was so real. Plenty of book fans soured on the otherwise beloved character after this killing, so now we're wondering how fans of the TV show feel. While we suspect very few people will blame Tyrion for offing Tywin — yeah, Tywin is his dad, but he's also an awful person who has been nothing but horrible to his youngest son — the murder of Shae is much murkier moral territory. Yes, Tyrion was shocked and hurt to find Shae in Tywin's bed, and he would obviously still be smarting from the things she said during his trial. But even the pain of a broken heart doesn't really justify murder — especially when you keep in mind that Shae is pretty powerless, and we seriously doubt she could have refused Tywin if she wanted to. On the other hand, Tyrion clearly felt terrible about it immediately, and his murder of Tywin was at least in part prompted by Tywin's dismissive attitude about what he had done. So, what do you think of Tyrion killing Shae? Understandable, or too far? Do you still like him, or has this made you look at the character different? Vote in our reaction buttons, and sound off in the comments below.

Launchbury in for Parling
England have been dealt a blow on the eve of their final Test against New Zealand after Geoff Parling was ruled out with a hamstring injury.
Joe Launchbury will resume his successful Six Nations second-row partnership with Courtney Lawes by taking Parling's place in the starting XV, with Dave Attwood promoted to the bench.
"Geoff is not 100 per cent right so Joe will start," head coach Stuart Lancaster said.
Parling damaged his hamstring during last weekend's 28-27 defeat in Dunedin, a result that placed the series beyond England's reach.
The 30-year-old has been described by Lancaster as the "outstanding forward" on tour and his unexpected absence will be welcomed by world champions New Zealand.
Apart from his work rate around the pitch, Parling has been the series' best line-out operator, enabling him to break up the Lawes-Launchbury pairing even when both locks were available for Saturday.
Launchbury looked tired in the first two Tests, but must summon the energy for one last assault at the Waikato Stadium as England attempt to claim a prized victory in New Zealand.
"Geoff has done a great job since coming back, but Joe and Courtney established themselves in the Six Nations and we're looking forward to them pairing up again," Lancaster said.
Watch the All Blacks take on England live from Hamilton on Sky Sports 1 from 8.00am on Saturday

Longing For Rescue
The movie Man of Steel, released in 2013, is a fresh imagining of the Superman story. Filled with breathtaking special effects and nonstop action, it drew crowds to movie theaters around the world. Some said that the film's appeal was rooted in its amazing technology. Others pointed to the enduring appeal of the "Superman mythology."
A Closing Door
Beep, beep, beep, beep. The warning sound and flashing lights alerted commuters that the train door was about to close. Yet a few tardy individuals still made a frenzied scramble across the platform and onto the train. The door closed on one of them. Thankfully, it rebounded and the passenger boarded the train safely. I wondered why people took such risks when the next train would arrive in a mere 4 minutes.
Leaving It Behind
In the year or so after our teenage son got his driver's license and started carrying a wallet, we got several calls from people who had found it somewhere. We cautioned him to be more careful and not leave it behind.
Too Late To Change?
There are sayings in many languages about the difficulty of changing long-established habits. In English, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks." In French, "Ce n'est pas à un vieux singe qu'on apprend à faire la grimace" (You can't teach an old monkey how to pull a funny face). In Spanish, "El loro viejo no aprende a hablar" (An old parrot can't learn to speak).
Joash must have been confused and frightened when he was told about the evil deeds of his grandmother Athaliah. She had murdered his brothers to usurp the power of the throne in Judah. But baby Joash had been safely hidden away by his aunt and uncle for 6 years (2 Chron. 22:10-12). As he grew, he enjoyed the love and instruction of his caregivers. When Joash was only 7 years old, he was secretly crowned king and his grandmother was overthrown (23:12-15).
Born To Rescue
After the terrorist attack and the collapse of the Twin Towers in New York City on September 11, 2001, Cynthia Otto took care of the search-and-rescue dogs. Years later she established a Working Dog Center where young pups are put through specialized training to prepare them to help victims of disaster.
New Birth
What is there about babies that makes us smile? Many people will stop everything at the sight or sound of a baby and will flock to gaze at the little one. I noticed this when I visited my dad at a nursing home. Though most of the residents were wheelchair-bound and suffered from dementia, the visit of a family with a baby almost unfailingly brought a spark of joy to their eyes that—tentatively at first but then undoubtedly—became a smile. It was amazing to watch.
New Beginnings
New beginnings are possible. Just ask Brayan, a young man who joined a gang in elementary school. Brayan ran away when he was 12 years old, and for 3 years was lost in gang and drug life. Although he left the gang and returned home, it was difficult for him, as he had been expelled from school for selling drugs. When he enrolled in a new high school, however, a teacher inspired and encouraged him to write about his experiences rather than repeat them. He embraced the challenge and is now experiencing a fresh start.
Heaven Rejoices!
Joann had been raised in a Christian home. But when she went to college, she began to question her beliefs and walked away from God. After graduation, she traveled to a number of countries, always looking for happiness but never feeling satisfied. While experiencing some difficulties, she recognized that God was pursuing her and that she needed Him.

2007: How Science Came Full Circle
Filling up
your car's fuel tank couldn't possibly have anything to do with artificial
organisms, food shortages or the latest superbug scourge. Or could it?
As the late
inventor of the polio vaccine, Jonas Salk, aptly noted, "The most
fundamental phenomenon in the universe is relationship."
Like a
scientific version of the popular game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,"
here we stroll through some of the top science stories of 2007, full circle.
The year
began with a bang—the sound of a 1,500-page
report hitting the desks of government officials around the world, that is.
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued the updated manifesto,
which details the dangers
of global warming resulting from humanity's carbon dioxide-producing love
affair with fossil fuels. Because rising seas, changing weather patterns and
worsening natural disasters don't comfort the people of planet Earth, they are …
energy-efficient light bulbs to hybrid cars—the sales of which are
soaring in the United States—people seem to be buying into new ways of
reducing their environmental impact. Surveys suggest, however, that Europeans
are more
likely to take the green plunge than Americans.
consumers scan for enviro-friendly products and services, scientists occupy the
frontlines of developing the latest green
technologies. One of the most popular so-called green technologies,
however, has turned into a …
derived from biological sources, called
biofuels, have enjoyed a 20-fold industry growth in the past decade. Truth
is, many only create an environmental stalemate or, paradoxically, cause more
planetary damage than filling up on plain old fossil fuel.
Ethanol "E85″
fuel derived from corn, for example, trades increased ecological damage
caused by fertilizer runoff for reduced greenhouse gas emissions (although even
that claim is a matter of contention). Other experts contend that biofuels cut
into food supplies and exacerbate
world hunger.
To feed
energy-hungry societies while trimming environmental impacts, some scientists
are looking to create their own …
J. Craig
Venter and his colleagues—in both academia and industry—are trying to design
artificial organisms in hopes of dodging the environmental minefield of
fuel production.
One of
Venter's big dreams is to engineer microscopic critters able to efficiently
turn plants into fuel without the ecological impacts. This year, Venter came
one step closer to success by transplanting a basic microbe's genetic
instructions into a more complex microbe's body.
In addition
to working toward green fuel production, designer microbes might also help in
the development and production of medicine. Venter also envisions designing
custom viruses to fight with fire with fire against …
As if
protesting their control by humans, more disease-causing microbes around the
planet are resisting antibiotic drugs—and are transforming into deadly
In the United States, a report showed that sometimes-deadly infections by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA) bacteria are on the rise. Several small outbreaks also frightened
several communities this year, when the bug attacked not only weakened
hospital patients, but seemingly healthy school kids.
But where
are these dangerous diseases coming from? Evolution is powering the process,
and experts think the increase in superbugs has as much to do with careless
antibiotic use as it does with the planet's …
By the
year's end, the world population will top 6.6 billon—that's 100 million new
bodies since last
As more
people cram into a fixed space, scientists expect worsening disease outbreaks, more
polluted natural resources, increased water shortages and animal
Perhaps the
most unsettling consequence, however, will be unchecked population growth's
feeding of …
In spite of
science's best efforts to develop radical new technologies to fight climate
change, more people on the planet translates to more greenhouse gas sources to
scientists think it's too
late to take action to get back to where we started, but others have some
shred of hope.
non-experts have put money
down on climate change's surprising
consequences. Whatever the true odds of a planetary nightmare might be,
only time—and more scientific research—will tell.

Title | Where to Go with a TTAB Final Decision: Two Options |
Author(s) | Kelly Lee |
First Page | 157 |
Abstract | The next step for the party dissatisfied with a final decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB)-into the federal Article III court system- imbeds some options. The party is entitled to choose between an appeal to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) and a civil action in federal district court.
But Look before you Leap: the party should become familiar with the intricacies of each option and should consider their comparative advantages and disadvantages before making the choice between these mutually exclusive next steps. |

Recent Advances for High-Efficiency Sources of Single Photons Based on Photonic Nanowires
Publication: Research - peer-review › Conference abstract in proceedings – Annual report year: 2012
Photonic nanowires have recently been used to tailor the spontaneous emission of embedded quantum dots, and to develop record efficiency single-photon sources. We will present recent developments in this field mainly 1) the observation of a strong inhibition of the spontaneous emission of quantum dots in ultrathin photonic wires 2) the control of the linear polarization of the single photons by photonic wires with an elliptical section, 3) the joint observation (unlike-cavity-based devices) of a record high efficiency and pure single photon emission process in a photonic wire single photon source, 4) progress toward high-efficiency electrical-driven sources.
