This is how to do it on 8, click here.
As for cloning to a flash drive I've not heard if it is possible. What you could do is to create an image on the usb drive and use a recovery DVD to load back the image. You will still need an optical drive.
It's possible to create a bootable usb drive so that you can install 8 from it, click here.
EasUS is well thought of and two free programs you should look at,
Todo backup. Hope that helps a bit.
I use Paragon Harddrive Manager Pro, otherwise I'd have given EasUs a go.

She has been a controversial figure in the arts since she burst upon the Paris scene in the 1970s. Sounds like something from a cheap tabloid. A peculiar French taste in artists. Irina Ionesco allowed her daughter to be photographed in what was described as erotic photographs. Eva was about 11 years old. Some people called the photographs pornographic. Ionesco's work cries out to be analyzed. Which may mean that it is pretentious. The whole story sounds silly.

This blog is about post tubal ligation syndrome, its side effects, and how tubal reversal helped to relieve my symptoms of PTLS. It is also about my life after tubal reversal, and how I feel about the second chance I've been given......

Breastfeeding and Tubal Reversal
I gave birth to my daughter in December of 2009. She is my fourth and I had breastfed all of the others with no problem what so ever. If there was a problem, it was that I had more milk then my babies could possibly handle, and I always had to have pads in my bra. My husband's running joke was that I wanted to feed not only our baby, but all of the hungry babies in the world. Sometimes it was uncomfortable, but I liked knowing I could pump out a large bottle on a moments notice. And I loved that I didn't have to buy formula. And then the fourth was born by c-section, and I had the tubal done.
The fourth was a hungry little baby. A natural nurser straight away, she nursed, and nursed, and nursed. I waited for the milk to come in, and when it did, it was shocking. There really wasn't hardly any milk to be had. Here I had this baby attached to my boobs constantly since birth, and there wasn't much milk. It didn't make any sense. The baby was checked to make sure she was sucking properly, the lactation consultant gave me the "new mom" breastfeeding speech, and my ob said that sometimes this happens. Where were my gigantic porn star boobs filled with milk??? What happened??? My baby loved to nurse, but what little bit of milk we could get out of my breasts was not enough to fill her tummy. I supplemented with herbs to increase milk supply and it helped very little. But I continued to nurse, but had to follow each feeding with a bottle. This went on for many months and my husband, ever so patient, continued to buy formula and would make sure our daughter was full with a bottle. The fact that I couldn't even fill my daughters tummy just added to the depression that I felt over all of the other symptoms of the TL. Yet, I didn't link it to the TL at first. I thought maybe it had to do with having the csection, thinking major surgery might put a damper on making milk. I asked God to just help me continue to have that close bonding time with my daughter even though I wasn't fully feeding her. I later found information that a medical study proved that milk supply is reduced if a tubal is done after birth. Just another thing that PTLS took away from me.
Long story short, I became snack food. Never enough for a feed, but enough for comforting, for holding over until we got home to a bottle. She didn't particularly love formula. She didn't gain the same amount of weight that her siblings did. But she loved to nurse. I was her pacifier in the middle of the night. Her comfort when she was sad or tired. By the time she was 10 months old we were down to just occasionally nursing at night before bed. She enjoyed just a few moments before being laid in the crib. But not every night. I assumed that there must have been a few drops of milk to be had or else she would give up nursing entirely.
At this point my tubal reversal was in the works, and my cycle was crazy and couldn't be counted on. My doc likes to do the reversal on days 7-11 of the cycle, so in order to plan he put me on monophasic birth control pills (estrogen). I had told him about the breastfeeding issues when we talked about my PTLS symptoms. He said that if there was any little bit on milk left it would dry up with the BC pills. I do think my daughter noticed because she became disappointed when she did occasionally try to nurse. Even the few drops she got were gone. I figured that was ok since she was about to hit a year, and it wasn't like I was her food source anyway.
Fast forward to the reversal. All went great, had the reversal on a friday, and post op appointment the following day, and I was free to make the three hour drive home with my husband. We got home about 1pm, I curled up in bed, took a pain pill and dozed. I woke up at 6pm, got myself out of bed, and slowly made my way down the hallway to look for my family. When I found them my oldest daughter said, "Oh mom, you spilled something on your shirt". I looked down and my tshirt was soaked in the front. I reached up and touched my shirt, feeling a little drugged from the pain pills, and I realized that my breasts were hard. They were engorged. They were filled with milk in a way that they never had after I had given birth. I stood there shocked, confused, and in awe. I looked to my husband and he said, "guess your hormones are working again." I started to laugh. If having a tubal didn't disturb your hormones, then why did this happen after getting it reversed? At this point, my tubes had been reversed for only 36 hours!
My husband suggested putting my daughter back to the breast to see if she would nurse, and she went right back to it like no time had lapsed. For the first time in her life, she was able to fill her tummy with milk from me. She was now 14 months old. We spent the next month bonding, nursing, and snuggling in a way that we never did when she was tiny. I felt so blessed that I was given a chance to experience something so special. It is now 6 weeks (today!) post op, I feel great, my breasts are still full of milk, and my daughter is still nursing in the morning and at night. I will wean soon enough, but right now I am enjoying this gift I've been given.
I had to put this up for others to read because after searching on the Internet I couldn't find any instance where a mom had milk come in after a TR. Granted, I couldn't even find an instance where a mom was looking for a TR while still breastfeeding. I know my tubes weren't tied long, and I know that my daughter was still nursing occasionally up until a month before my surgery. But having milk come in bigger and better than after birth, amazed and delighted me. Others will say it's biology, but I choose to think of it as my own little miracle brought about by a caring doctor and a tubal reversal.

Description of Invention: NIH scientists have developed T cell receptors (TCRs) against the melanoma antigen family A3 (MAGE-A3) tumor antigen in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecule HLA-DP-beta1*04. They are the first HLA class II restricted MAGE-A3 TCRs developed for use in adoptive immunotherapy. Previously developed MAGE-A3 TCRs are HLA class I restricted and generate CD8+ T cell responses to mediate tumor regression in some patients with MAGE-A3+ tumors. Other patients may not respond due to a lack of CD4+ T cells participation. Cancer immunotherapy with these new HLA class II TCRs could yield a robust and effective CD4+ T cell immune response that selectively targets MAGE-A3 expressing tumors without generating toxicity against healthy cells. MAGE-A3 is a cancer testis antigen expressed on many types of cancer cells that blocks the functions of tumor suppressor proteins to mediate tumor growth and spreading. MAGE-A3 is not expressed on normal cells other than non-MHC expressing germ cells of the testis, which do not generate an immune response. Thus, MAGE-A3 represents an ideal target for cancer immunotherapies that are predicted to generate fewer toxic side effects than current standard cancer treatments. Applications:

Fudbalski klub Čukarički (Serbian Cyrillic: Фудбалски клуб Чукарички, English: Čukarički Football Club), commonly known as Čukarički, familiarly as Čuka, also as Čukarički Belgrade, is a Serbian professional football club from Belgrade, more precisely from the Čukarica municipality, that currently plays in the Serbian SuperLiga, the top division in Serbian football.
Founded in 1926, the club spent the first years of its existence in the amateur field.[1] In the days of Yugoslavia, Čukarički Belgrade played predominantly in the lower divisions of the country.[1] The first time for a stir, thre club caused in the seasons 1971/72 and 1993/94, when they reached the Yugoslav Second League respectively the Yugoslav First League, as well as in 1996 and 1997, when the qualification for the UEFA Intertoto Cup succeeded.[1]
On 17 April 2012, the club was bought by Dragan Obradović, the owner of the Serbian construction and wholesale company ADOC.[2][3] Since then Čukarički Belgrade is the first ever professional football club in Serbia to have been privatized, and is also one of the first clubs in Southeast Europe which were ever bought.[2][3]
Beginnings of Čukarički Belgrade (1926–1942)[edit]
The club had emerged from Čukarica, more precisely in the working-class neighborhood of the Belgrade municipality, which is located on the right bank of the Sava River.[1] The club was formed on 4 July 1926 during a meeting that took place in a restaurant named Majdan, where the club got its official name, ČSK–Čukarički sport klub, and the decision was made that the club colors should be black and white, a tradition which is still present.[1] The first president was Miloš Ilić, known as the first Serbian aviator respectively combat pilots of the 1st class, and by that time a reservist of the Yugoslav Royal Air Force.[1] The first players of the club were amateurs, which organized the pitch, made their own jerseys and nets.
ČSK started in the third league of the Belgrade League system, but in 1928 managed to promoted to the second Belgrade League, where the club was able to keep several seasons.[4] In the season 1931-32, ČSK became champion and thus played from the next season in the Belgrad B-League, which they gained finally in 1935.[4] So, the club celebrated its first decade of existence with championship success. During this first period of success, especially striker Aleksandar Petrović, called Pikavac, was one of the most important figures of the club.[4] Coming from Palilulac Belgrade in 1932, he played in ČSK until 1936, when he was transferred to SK Jugoslavija, one of the major national clubs.[4] As a member of the Yugoslav national team, he is remembered as one of the best dribblers of Kingdom of Yugoslavia.[4]
In 1936, ČSK entered to the Belgrade First A-League, which was one of the Yugoslav Second League´s at that time, but relegated after two years.[4] The generational change in the squad is considered to be the reason for such a bad season, but after only one year, the club was back and won immediately the championship.[4] However, in that season the club was merged with FK Istra, a move that was not supported by many members of the direction board, and much less among the players.[4] Because of this, local popularity fall and the vast majority of the players moved to neighbouring clubs Banovac, Makiš and Šećeranac.[4] This made a stagnation in the club and during the following seasons the club didn´t competed in any level until 1942.[4]
The club during the World War II (1942–1944)[edit]
During the World War II, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia was invaded in April 1941 by the Axis powers and divided. Parts of Serbia fell to the Independent State of Croatia, the Kingdom of Hungary, or were under Nazi-Germany administration, among Belgrade, which was occupied by the Wehrmacht. Under difficult circumstances, it was permitted for certain clubs to play football, including ČSK. Already after the invasion, the club returned 1942 after six years of abstinence successfully in the competition and won the First Belgrade League, thus played next season in the Serbian League, the top national tier during the war. In the 1942–43 season the club finished 4th, a remarkable achievement because they finished in front of several favourites like Jedinstvo Belgrade or BASK.[5]
In that period there was a popular domestic tournament named Letnji Pehar (Summer Trophy), where the best clubs competed like BSK, SK 1903, Obilić Belgrade and so also ČSK. Finally, the club defeated SK Banovac in the quarter-finals (2-1, 0-1), but lost against SK 1903 in the in the semifinals (0-2, 0-2).[citation needed] The 1943-44 Belgrade First League season was formed by 10 clubs however after 8 rounds it was interrupted with ČSK placed as 6th. By the end of the war the club didn't play under its name, only restoring its name in 1948 as FK Čukarički, now part of the Čukarički Sports Association.[1][4]
From the subclass to the first league (1944–2003)[edit]
In 1948, playing in the Belgrade Second League, which was the 6th tier of the newly formed league system of the Socialist Yugoslavia, the club finished 4th. It was coached by Jovan Veselinović and the squad was formed mostly by experienced older players. In 1950-51 with an already renovated squad, it finishes third and qualified to the Belgrade First League where it also finished third achieving promotion to the 1953-54 Belgrade Podsavezna League, the national fourth tier, where they finished third, again. Led by the coach Žikica Spasojević and striker Petar Popović they archived the promotion to the 1954-55 Serbian League, the third tier.
In summer 1955, Vule Radosavljević was made the main coach, however the club ended the first half of the season at bottom. Radosavljević was replaced by Dragomir Kojadinović and there were also changes at club direction board which may have contributed to a come-back with the team finishing the season in 8th place. This earned them participation in the pley-off for the Yugoslav Second League, however they failed to qualify. In 1955-56 many players left the club, and led by coach Brana Aćimović they finished 2nd in the Belgrade Podsavezna League. 1956 is the year of the beginning of the fall as many important club players retired in that period.
Also, numerous club directions and coaches succeeded. So, the club played constantly in Belgrade leagues. Great achievement was brought on to the club ten years later in the 1966–67 season when they finished first in the Second Belgrade League and won the Belgrade Cup the same year.[1] They were promoted to the Serbian League where they were constantly on top.[1] So, these seasons, the club competed for promotion to the Yugoslav Second league, which he reached as a champion of the 1971/72 season. There, Čukarički held for several years, but did not succeed to promotion to the Yugoslav First League.[1]
In the early 1990s, the club played again in the third tier and between 1993 and 1995 in the second league of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.[1] In the 1994–95 season, the club managed finally for the first time in its history the promotion to the first league, where they played until 1998.[1] In the Yugoslav Cup in 1995, Čukarički came into the quarterfinals and also competed in the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 1996 and 1997.[1] Their biggest success during this period came in the 1999/2000 season, when they finished 6th in the first league, in which 21 teams participated.[1] The club remained till 2003 in the first division.[1]
From insolvency to privatization (2003–today)[edit]
After four years in the first league, Čukarički relegate in 2003. Although succeeded in 2004 as champion of the group West the direct re-promotion, the club relegated again in 2005. Čukarički was renamed in the early 2000s, as the Serbian company Stankom dedicated as the main sponsor and funder. Therefore, the club was known for a long time under the name Čukarički Stankom. By the arrival of Stankom the club was stabilized. So, they improved the organization, increased the stadium capacity to 7,000 and also brought a better financial situation. In 2007, Čukarički finally reached the top division, the Serbian SuperLiga.
From August 2007 to December 2008 the former Bundesliga manager Dragoslav Stepanović coached the club. After seven defeats in a row and the time between last place in the 2008–09 season, he was relieved of his duties. At the end of the season, the team made the 9th place in the table under coach Dejan Đurđević and remained in the league.
The 2009–10 season ended for Čukarički with the 13th place and escaped with three points ahead of Napredak Kruševac barely the relegation. This happiness the team should does not have anymore in the 2010–11 season. The club could not win a single one of its thirty league matches and finished with just five points on the last place and relegated in the Serbian First League.[1]
Also in the second league, Čukarički was not very successful. With 41 points they were equal on points with Banat Zrenjanin and Radnički Sombor. Because of the direct comparison between all three teams only Radnički Sombor had to join the 3rd league as 15th of the final table. The club was in a very difficult financial situation and was on the verge of bankruptcy, however, the year 2011 marked a turning point, as the construction and wholesale company ADOC, which operates in the pharmacy, diagnostics and construction industry, bought up Čukarički and immediately invested in the club, making Čukarički Belgrade the first professional football club in Serbia, which was privatized, and also one of the few clubs in Southeast Europe, which are privately owned.[1][2][3]
Through the privatization, the financial and organizational situation of the club improved significantly, but also in the infrastructure and the squad has been invested.[2][3] In the 2012–13 season the club then managed the runner-up of the second league and the return to the first league. In the following 2013–14 season, the upswing of the club continued, so Čukarički was able to secure a surprising 5th place in the league.

Coping with Climate Change: 2 Texas Towns Struggle for Water
PBS Newshour, PBS
This video documents the impact of the 2011 drought on the water supply of two Texas towns. It discusses how the higher temperatures have increased the evaporation from open reservoirs, resulting in a drop in their water levels. The use of water in fighting wildfires has also contributed to this drawdown. While some jurisdictions have been able to develop pipelines to other sources, others have had to resort to trucking water in.

- Part of PBS Newshour's "Coping with Climate Change" series. This is about drought, which is clearly a climate change issue. Antiquated water-rights laws, a rapidly growing population, and competing water uses have made the problem even more difficult.
- Comments from expert scientist: Good overview of the 2011-20xx Texas drought and its most severe impacts on water supplies. Relatively little "scientific" content. Its mostly a news story.

An air conditioning system in your Chevrolet car plays a major role. It makes your journey more comfortable and enjoyable during hot summer. Your car AC system involves many components like compressor, condenser, evaporator, expansion device, so on. The main responsibility of the AC compressor is to regulate and supply the refrigerant. The AC compressor is considered as the heart of the air conditioning system. The Freon gas is supplied by the AC compressor into the condenser through a tube. The condenser and the compressor are located on the outside air portion of the system. The Chevrolet AC compressor is basically a mechanical pump which is driven by the compressor pulley. An air conditioning system in your Chevrolet car has a high pressure side and low pressure side.
The Chevrolet AC compressor sucks the refrigerant gas from the discharge side. Then, it compresses the refrigerant and sends to the condenser. The condenser cools the refrigerant and changes into liquid. If you find any difference in the working of the Chevrolet Luv A/C compressor, you need to replace it with a genuine part at the earliest. Car Parts Warehouse is the best place to get the fine quality car parts. We provide OEM replacements and aftermarket parts at affordable prices. All our car parts are genuine in quality and are tested to meet the industry standards.
We have a wide range of car parts where you can select your choice of car parts. Our warehouses are located at many parts of the country.

You can also get it through online. Using online, you can make an order for the Chevrolet Luv AC compressor from being at your home or anywhere else. If you select three options like the year, make and model of your car, you will be able to view the list of car parts from our online catalog.

Amazon has stopped taking pre-orders for Warner Home Video films
In what's become the second major dispute with a supplier in recent weeks, Amazon is now refusing to accept pre-orders for a number of Warner Home Video films including The Lego Movie, 300: Rise of an Empire, Winter's Tale and Transcendence according to a report from The New York Times. A quick visit to Amazon and a search for any of the titles above reveals they're only listed for purchase via digital release. Searching for a disc-based version nets you the product page but there's no way to pre-order and no indication of when it will be available. The best option is to sign up for an alert to be notified when it becomes available. The standoff reportedly started in mid-May which led to some customers voicing their opinions on company forums. Given that films like The Lego Movie are highly anticipated, what gives?
The Everything Store is shrinking again. Amazon customers who want to order forthcoming Warner Home Video features, including "The Lego Movie," "300: Rise of an Empire," "Winter's Tale" and "Transcendence," are finding it impossible to do so. The retailer's refusal to sell the movies is part of its effort to gain leverage in yet another major confrontation with a supplier to become public in recent weeks. In a standoff with the Hachette Book Group, Amazon is refusing to take advance orders and delaying shipments. Amazon and Hachette are wrangling over e-book terms. The retailer is in a third standoff in Germany, with the Bonnier Media Group. Disputes between retailers and vendors happen every day. What is unusual here is not Amazon's relentless desire to gain margin from its suppliers, but the suppliers' growing resolve to hold the line. If other suppliers adopt the same attitude, that might have significant implications for Amazon's pell-mell growth. The confrontations indicate that Amazon's long-stated desire to sell everything to everybody might be taking a back seat. The biggest book release in the middle of June is the new J. K. Rowling novel from Hachette; the biggest movie is "Lego." Amazon is basically telling its customers to go elsewhere for them, which is a very un-Amazon thing to do.

Slovenian passports are issued to citizens of Slovenia to facilitate international travel. Every Slovenian citizen is also a citizen of the European Union. The passport, along with the national identity card allows for free rights of movement and residence in any of the states of the European Union and European Economic Area.
According to the 2014 Visa Restricitions Index, Slovenian citizens can visit 160 countries without a visa or with a visa granted on arrival.

Physical appearance[edit]
Slovenian passports are the same burgundy colour as other European passports, and with the Slovenian Coat of arms emblazoned in the centre of the front cover. The words EVROPSKA UNIJA (English: European Union) and REPUBLIKA SLOVENIJA (English: Republic of Slovenia) are inscribed above the coat of arms and the word POTNI LIST (English: Passport) is inscribed below. Passports issued in officially bilingual areas of Slovenia also have Italian or Hungarian text below the Slovene. These are UNIONE EUROPEA, REPUBBLICA DI SLOVENIA and PASSAPORTE in Italian and EURÓPAI UNIÓ, SZLOVÉN KÖZTÁRSASÁG and ÚTLEVÉL in Hungarian. Slovenian passports have the standard biometric symbol at the bottom and use the standard EU design.

Can I homeschool without going insane?
i read up on different homeschooling philosophies and especially unschooling philosophies to give myself some perspective on what I believe really matters in education. While I doubt anyone would consider my approach unschooling, and I have what looks like a school-at-home approach more days than not, I decided before I started that if it got to where I felt I needed to yell, scold, cajole or bribe to get work done, then something was wrong with the task I was requiring ds to do.
I worry often about how unsocial my entire family is. But, that's the way we operate and I don't think it's a huge hinderance to my kids' normal development not to have many playdates and friends over. In fact, I think the benefits of having my son OUT of the social dynamic he experienced in public school far outweighs any negatives thus far.

My God, my strength, my hopeAuthor: Charles Wesley (1742)Published in 346 hymnals Printable scores: PDF, MusicXMLAudio files: MIDI | ||
My God, my strength, my hope,
On Thee I cast my care,
With humble confidence look up,
And know Thou hear'st my prayer.
Give me on Thee to wait,
Till I can all things do;
On Thee, almighty to create,
Almighty to renew.
I want a sober mind,
A self-renouncing will,
That tramples down and casts behind
The baits of pleasing ill;
A soul inured to pain,
To hardship, grief, and loss,
Bold to take up, firm to sustain,
The consecrated cross.
I want a godly fear,
A quick-discerning eye,
That looks to Thee when sin is near,
And bids the tempter fly;
A spirit still prepared,
And armed with jealous care,
Forever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer.
I want a true regard,
A single, steady aim,
Unmoved by threatening or reward,
To Thee and Thy great name;
This blessing above all,
Always to pray, I want:
Out of the deep on Thee to call,
And never, never faint.
I rest upon Thy word;
The promise is for me;
My succor and salvation, Lord,
Shall surely come from Thee;
But let me still abide,
Nor from my hope remove,
Till Thou my patient spirit guide
Into Thy perfect love.

Golden Goddess Slot
Golden Goddess Slot
Golden Goddess is a high stakes, 40 pay line slot machine from High 5 Games. The pay lines on Golden Goddess slot machine are fixed to 40, with a minimum bet of 1 coin per win line, making the minimum stake 40 coins per spin.
Incredibly the maximum stake is 40,000 coins per spin (at Sky Vegas, individual casinos may vary this amount),
making for ultra high stakes game play. With such stakes, the prize potential becomes huge, which is were the Super Stacks come into play. Low value wins are able to reach in the region of 200,000 coins, and large wins breach the millions when played on the maximum stake. The jackpot is capped at 25,000,000 for any stake, although this will only be achievable on certain stakes
Golden Goddess slot machine game play features super stacked win lines, adding to the potential for very large reel wins, with a similar set up featuring on Giants Gold.
Each reel in Golden Goddess includes large stacks of the same symbol. Before each spin, a symbol is randomly selected to fill each reels stacks. Any symbol, except the Bonus Rose symbol, may appear in any stack. All stacked symbol positions on a reel transform to the same symbol. The same symbol may appear in the Super Stacks on multiple reels on the same spin. When the same symbol appears in the stacks on adjacent reels, the potential for big wins increases.
There are three symbols that pay a win for two of a kind, the Wilds, the Goddess, and the Man. It is fairly common to hit two stacked rows of these symbols, often paying a minimum of 5x your playing stake (check the pay table for a list of all prize values).
Golden Goddess Free Spins Bonus
Nine Rose symbols on the center three reels trigger the on-screen bonus. These symbols only display on the center three reels, and only pay for a full stacked line on each.
When you enter the bonus feature, you are prompted to selected a symbol to Super Stack. Uncover a hidden symbol behind any of the nine roses to reveal either the Goddess, Man, Horse, or Dove. The revealed symbol becomes the Super Stacks symbol found on all reels for all spins in the Free Spins Bonus.
Triggering the Free Spins Bonus awards seven free spins. The bonus cannot be re-triggered as no Bonus symbols appear on the reels during Free Spins.
The free spins are played at the same line bet and same number of lines as the triggering spin, with no additional multiplier bonuses. As the feature is random, you can often expect very high paying bonuses, with the occasional dud feature, winning less than the playing stake.
Golden Goddess can be found in many casinos, both land based and online across the world. The above prize description relates to the settings applied by the Sky Vegas online casino.
The game is available to play HERE for free to learn the pay structures and bonuses, as well as for real money. The game may not display in certain countries due to local laws, but this guide is relevant for all versions.

Enhancements of the emission and light extraction of a radiating dipole coupled with localized surface plasmon induced on a surface metal nanoparticle in a light-emitting device |
Optics Express, Vol. 22, Issue S1, pp. A155-A166 (2014)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1850 KB)
The radiated power enhancement and more congregated radiation of a radiating dipole within a GaN material when it is coupled with the localized surface plasmon (LSP) resonance modes induced on a surface Ag nanoparticle (NP) are numerically demonstrated. The numerical study is based on an algorithm including the induction of LSP resonance on the Ag NP by the source dipole and the feedback effect of the LSP resonance field on the source dipole behavior. The spectral peaks of radiated power enhancement correspond to the substrate LSP resonance modes with mode fields mainly distributed around the bottom of the Ag NP such that the coupling system radiates mainly into the GaN half-space. By moving the radiating dipole laterally away from the bottom of the Ag NP, the spectral peaks of radiated power enhancement red shift and their levels diminish with increasing lateral distance. The radiation patterns in the GaN half-space show more congregated radiation around the vertical direction, indicating that the light extraction efficiency can be enhanced in an LSP-coupled light-emitting device with surface metal NPs.

The newly-hired chief technology officer for a Bush PAC deleted a series of inflammatory tweets.
He plans to release the first chapter of his new e-book on Tuesday.
Bush previously said that he would release about 250,000 emails from his time as governor.

The former Florida governor says a few team owners reached out to him about the possibility.
The summit will focus on production agriculture, renewable fuels and GMO policy.
One of the biggest knocks on him, including from the right, is that he is a legacy to a dynasty.
Bush will make clear he wants to return as much power as possible to the states.
However, the margins are narrowing in certain key states and against certain candidates.
For 2016, only the strongest candidates need apply.
More than 70 Republicans are co-hosting an event forr the former Florida governor's leadership PAC.

Playing in Joachim Creek, summer 1957 - Dad (Wayne Pierce), Jo Ann and
favorite dog, Smokey. Smokey's in the water for one major reason: to save
the fish :) Poor dog always thought the fish were drowning. He would
stay there patiently, gently catch one in his mouth, never harming
it, take it to shore, gently lay it down, then go back in the water
to "save" more :::grin:::
The bridge in the background is the bridge that carries Highway V across a branch that feeds Joachim Creek (I've forgotten the branch's name, and it doesn't show on the map I have). In the picture, DeSoto is to the left and Valle Lake is to the right. The bridge is almost exactly at the point where Mt Olive Church Road deadends into Highway V. This is the "big" pool that was upstream from the house, rather than the one that was against the cliff directly behind the house. Smokey's tail is pointed almost directly at the house, which is maybe a couple of hundred yards away. |

- TNA star Ric Flair spoke with Mike Mooneyham of The Post & Courier about The Four Horsemen going into the WWE Hall of Fame this year.
Flair confirmed reports that Triple H called him while he was at the Impact tapings to tell him about the induction. Flair said the whole TNA crew was watching the Hall of Fame video from RAW backstage at the tapings.
Flair also said that WWE has limited his speech this year to 7 minutes. When Flair was inducted back in 2008, his speech went over an hour.
Flair is looking forward to linking back up with the WWE crew and said, "We're going to blow the roof off."

If it involved a significant amount of money, it would be open for consideration.
No internal lock or magazine disconnect on my pistols!
And NO "security" team is setting foot in my house either!!!
He's pretty pro gun. But who knows. I'd make a deal, he could come to my house armed if he wanted to. We'd be even.
Mike, what are the odds Penn Gillette was armed too? Pretty good I'd think.
I prefer to live dangerously free than safely caged!
"Our houses are protected by the good Lord and a gun. And you might meet 'em both if you show up here not welcome son." Josh Thompson "Way Out Here"
Now, that's a story I would love to hear...... would have liked to have been there.
For Rove, Bush, or Costner, .... I would probably go along with it. IN my house, it really wouldn't matter, as there is a gun somewhere nearby anyway. LOL, and I"m doubting I would really need it during their visit.
So, if it matters to you to meet them, then do it.... go along with it, it won't be for that long anyway for a one time deal.

Hey Exactly: I think archer51 said it as well as can be said. Who the hell does this "celebrity" think he is anyway---if this is of such concern to him, he should not be having contests that involve such visits.
What's funny is Charleton Heston's people (when he was alive) would probably ask you just carry a rifle (lol). Clint Eastwood's people would probably not want you armed. (John Hinckley, anyone?).
I will not allow a repair person to OC in my house. I'd ask him to leave the mag in the car at least. Why, since I promote OC? Well inside my house I know I'm safe and not a hothead, and I demand disparity of force -in my own home-. It's stupid to do otherwise. I will concede it's kinda dumb on my part, because the guy could CC, but hey, I do what I can not having a metal detector.
Thus I can understand why Rush's people might ask to do a security sweep. They don't know you aren't a Mark Chapman type. So meet him in public, like Starbucks and OC to your heart's content. I would not let anyone sweep my house. Strangers take stuff and plant things (and drop things). A Hollywood type's security team drops a packet of crack out of their pocket looking under the couch and it goes unnoticed, and then what? Bugs are extremely small and could be planted. Paranoia? IDK, it's not like the old days where someone had to have privacy to bug you and cops didn't know enough to plant evidence. Today all bets are off and everyone is suspect until proven trustworthy. I never trust anyone completely without verifying even my SO.
R.E.D. (Retired. Extremely. Dangerous.)
I wouldn't disarm for family members let alone someone I don't know and could care less about.
I'm going to mirror everyone else and say, HELL NO!!
My boss listens to Rush Limbaugh. It drives me crazy. I agree with some of what he says (he's a little too neocon for me on most things) but he's just obnoxious.
Instead of coming into my home, I would have him out on my west lawn for a beer or even a cup of his tea.
There's nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive
Not sure what they would say, but say they asked you to disarm and/or remove some of the firearms/ammunition beforehand, would you do so?
Negative..... In-fact, just because the question was proposed I'd offer up the following.... "in the words of Martin Lawrence" GET TO STEPP'IN! As the door slams shut.

Assessor(s): | Bösenberg, J.D. | |||||||||
Reviewer(s): | Donaldson, J.S. & Hilton-Taylor, C. | |||||||||
Justification: Originally listed as Near Threatened, but the available data supports a listing of Vulnerable in terms of overall population numbers and evidence of ongoing decline (at least 10% over three generations, capped to 100 years from now). |
History: |
Range Description: |
E. schmitzii occurs in the Democratic Republic of the Congo on the extreme south of the Kundelungu plateau in the Shaba province and in Zambia along the Muchinga escarpment in the Luapula and Northern provinces. The distribution broadly follows the catchment of the Luapula River. Occurs at elevations from 1.000 to 1,400 m. Plants described by Ian Turner, Jean-Pierre Sclavo and Francios Malaisse in 2006 as E. flavistrobilus are know considered a synonym of E. schmitzii. These plants occur at a single locality in the North Western province of Zambia, to the east of Solwezi. Approximate elevation is 1,300 m. The extent of occurrence of that subpopulation is about 30 km². |
Countries: | Native: Congo, The Democratic Republic of the; Zambia |
Range Map: | Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. |
Population: | It was originally thought to be a very restricted species in Zambia, where there were several reports of only one plant, but since they have been found in larger numbers across quite a wide range. |
Population Trend: | Decreasing |
Habitat and Ecology: | This species grows in sandy quartzitic soils in Miombo woodlands. The plants form numerous basal suckers. |
Systems: | Terrestrial |
Major Threat(s): | E. schmitzii is threatened due to over-collecting for ornamental purposes and as a result of habitat loss caused by bush clearing for agricultural purposes. Too frequent fires may have also driven this cycad's pollinator to extinction. |
Conservation Actions: | This species is listed on Appendix I of the CITES Appendices. Populations occur in the buffer area of the North Luangwa Reserve. |

Ten people who changed the world: Andrew Strauss, cricketer who set new standards for English sport
Whether in the cut-throat field of politics or the fashion industry's corridors of power, this year they left our planet a better place. Celebrate 10 of the best, nominated by Independent writers
Saturday 31 December 2011
Quite a lot of high-profile sportsmen appear to have a better chance of reflecting the world, and some of its basic frailties, than making it a better place. However, if this is true, and a rash of super-injunctions and adolescent anarchy this year suggested that it might well be, the achievement of England's cricket captain is made especially creditable.
Andrew Strauss not only helped complete a remarkable transformation of the national team by winning back and then retaining the Ashes in Australia at the turn of last year.
In the high and tumultuous summer, when the rioting threatened to engulf the third Test match in Birmingham, the 34-year-old Strauss led England to a crushing 4-0 series win over India and number-one ranking in the world. As impressive as the winning play, though, was the competitive character and commitment on which it was built.
This was the triumph of a three-year effort that had transformed a team which, when handed over to Strauss and Zimbabwean coach Andy Flower for a tour of the West Indies, had resembled just another failing branch of the celebrity sports culture.
Kevin Pietersen, a magnificently talented batsman but someone not famous for self-imposed discipline, had resigned as captain amid much controversy. The overwhelming sense was that England's cricket team, like the one of football which had just been ejected humiliatingly from the European Championship qualifying series and the rugby team that, as it turned out, were already on the road to the disaster of the recent World Cup tournament in New Zealand, had lost both the will and the means to compete at the highest level.
The Strauss-Flower partnership systematically dismantled this dispiriting idea. Strauss was born in South Africa and spent some of his youth in Australia. These may well have been formative influences because if Strauss's style is unshakeably laid-back and English, there is also a competitive, hard-nosed drive to win that has blended perfectly with the imperatives of a coach who not only represented Zimbabwe with brilliant accomplishment in Test cricket but also displayed a nerve and a conscience that flew beyond the boundaries of a cricket field.
In the 2003 World Cup, Flower and his black team-mate, Henry Olonga, walked to the wicket wearing black armbands. They explained they were mourning the death of democracy in their beloved Zimbabwe. After defying the regime of Robert Mugabe, Flower plainly believed that re-animating England cricket was at the very least a manageable test of nerve.
The project was launched after England batted abysmally at the start of that West Indian tour. The team were shot out for an embarrassing 51 and Strauss and Flower announced they would demand entirely new levels of application – and self-examination. It has been a relentlessly prosecuted campaign and it has produced the standards that another England captain, Michael Vaughan, called for in the wake of a brilliant winning Ashes campaign in 2005.
That was crowned by victory at the Oval and long days of celebration, notably a bus-stop tour of the West End of London and a Downing Street reception from which the star of the series, Andrew Flintoff, emerged tired and emotional and glassy-eyed. Vaughan said that he hoped his team would stay honest – and remember the foundation of their achievement, a summer-long refusal to give an inch to an ageing but still gifted Australian team.
It was a cry that went unanswered. Flintoff was appointed captain when Vaughan was injured and proved quite out of his depth when the Australians claimed a 5-0 series revenge back on home soil. When that ground was re-claimed by Flower and Strauss, it was only after they had imposed a new and infinitely tougher regime.
Pietersen, particularly, railed against the order that wives and girlfriends would not be allowed to join the tour until the third Test in Perth, by which time the coach and the captain believed that the team would have found the required levels of single-mindedness.
When the England rugby team imploded so miserably at the World Cup, when senior player and vice-captain Mike Tindall survived a drunken spree in the first days of the tournament, despite undermining the manager Martin Johnson's declaration that he would put his trust in his 'adult' charges, it was impossible not to regret the disregarded example of the cricket team that had made itself the best in the world.
Commitment has to be re-doubled if England are to maintain their momentum in the coming Test series against Pakistan, Sri Lanka and a formidable South African team. "We now face our biggest test," says Strauss. "It's a different mindset being the hunted rather than the hunters. It means if we want to stay on top we have to retain a desperate desire to improve."
Strauss was speaking for English cricket, but in an Olympic year, he might have been rallying the entire sports nation. Hopefully, he was – and with the most impeccable credentials.
