Within a society that long considered "lesbian motherhood" a contradiction in terms, what are the experiences of lesbian mothers today? In this illuminating book, lesbian mothers tell their stories in their own words--how they became mothers; how they see their relationships with their children, relatives, lovers and friends; and how they deal with threats to custody.

In April 1993, as part of the March on Washington for Lesbian, Gay, and Bi Equal Rights and Liberation, hundreds of couples participated in "the Wedding," a symbolic commitment ceremony held in front of the Internal Revenue Service building. Part protest and part affirmation of devotion, the event was a reminder that marriage rights have become a major issue among lesbians and gay men, who cannot marry legally and can only claim domestic partner rights in a few locations in the United States. Yet despite official lack of recognition, same-sex wedding ceremonies have been increasing in frequency over the past decade.
Ellen Lewin, who has consecrated her own lesbian relationship with a commitment ceremony, decided to explore the myriad ways in which lesbians and gay men create meaningful ceremonies for themselves. She offers the first comprehensive account of lesbian and gay weddings in modern America. A series of richly detailed profiles--the result of extensive interviews and participation in the planning and realization of many of these commitment rituals--is woven together to show how new traditions, and ultimately new families, are emerging within contemporary America.
Just as the book is a moving portrait of same-sex couples today, it is also a significant political document on a new arena in the struggle for lesbian and gay rights. In a larger sense, Lewin's work is about the politics surrounding same-sex marriages and the ramifications for central dimensions of American culture such as kinship, community, morality, and love.
Lewin explores the ceremonies themselves, which range from traditional church weddings to Wicca rituals in the countryside, with portraits of the planning, the joys, and the anxieties that led up to the weddings. She introduces Bob and Mark, a leather fetishist couple who sanctified their love by legally changing their last names and exchanging vows in tuxedos, leather bow ties, and knee-high police boots. In an equally absorbing profile, Lewin describes Khadija, from a working-class black family deeply suspicious of whites (and especially Jews) and Shulamith, raised in a Zionist household. She tells of how the two women struggled to reconcile their widely disparate upbringings and how they ultimately combined elements of African and Jewish traditions in their wedding. These, among many other stories, make Recognizing Ourselves a vivid tapestry of lesbian and gay life in post-Stonewall United States.

text: Rhino horn smuggler pleads guilty Thai national Chumlong Lemtongthai on Monday pleaded guilty to some charges. Chumlong Lemtongthai and his accomplices Punpitak Chunchom and Marnus Steyl appear in court on 08 November 2011 after they were arrested for allegedly running a rhino poaching syndicate. Picture: Alex Eliseev/EWN SARS Rhino horn Illegal rhino horn products Chumlong Lemtongthai Kempton Park Magistrates Court Johannesburg syndicate SARS,rhino horn,illegal rhino horn products,Chumlong Lemtongthai,Kempton Park Magistrates Court,Johannesburg syndicate Local Email Print Tweet Alex Eliseev | 05/11/2012 JOHANNESBURG – Rhino horn smuggler Chumlong Lemtongthai on Monday pleaded guilty to abusing the permits system in the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court. Lemtongthai and five others were accused of being involved in an alleged syndicate, which used prostitutes to pose as trophy hunters. In a dramatic twist on Monday, prosecutors withdrew charges against the remaining suspects. Monday was supposed to mark the start of one of the country's most high-profile rhino horn smuggling cases. Investigators from the South African Revenue Service (Sars) and their witnesses arrived in court and appeared ready to testify. But after lunch, prosecutor Alan Simpson made a bombshell announcement, telling the court all but one of the accused were being set free. Lemtongthai pleaded guilty to around 25 of 80 charges. He will be sentenced either on Monday or later this week. Lemtongthai apologised to South Africa for his crimes, but cleared the game farm owners by saying they knew nothing about the fake hunters.

- 40% increase in Irish exports in last four years
- Europe remains key market in terms of export destinations
- Irish exports to China reached $530m in last three years
Irish exports have seen a record-breaking increase in 2013 |
Irish food and drink exports are set to hit a record EUR10bn (US$13bn) according to new figures released by Bord Bia.
This represents an increase of 9% on the previous year and 40% in the last four years with revenues almost $4bn higher than in 2009.
Export values for dairy products and ingredients were at an all time high, exceeding $4bn and meat, livestock and prepared foods also performed strongly.
In what he called a "challenging year", minister for agriculture, food and the marine, Simon Coveney said the results were impressive and proved there was "little doubt that the $16bn export target set out in the industry-led strategy for the agri-sector Food Harvest 2020 is well in sight."
Europe remained a key market in terms of export destinations. The UK was the largest with 42% of exports worth an estimated $5.5bn in 2013, followed by other EU markets at an increase of 11%. Internationally, exports to China grew over 40% with values trebling over the last three years to reach $530m in 2013. China is now Ireland's sixth largest market overall, driven in particular by strong dairy and pork exports.
Bord Bia chairman, Michael Carey, said "The significant export growth achieved by the Irish food and drink industry, in the face of an increasingly competitive environment for exporters confirms the dedication, ambition and resilience that is abundant in the sector.
This impressive growth in exports by our largest indigenous industry reflects its persistent focus on innovation and differentiation as it seeks, successfully, to boost its position across key markets."

Definición de pneumatic en inglés:
- The pneumatic pump operated the mechanical heart and sustained Clark for 112 days.
- Any pressurized bottle used for pneumatic operation must be filled with compressed air, nitrogen, or CO2.
- In a procedure which began at seven o'clock in the morning and which lasted for a little under four hours, the 1,000 metric tonne roof was raised from inside the storage tank's structure using pneumatic pressure.
- Ornithologists have long sought to explain pneumatic bones in birds as an adaptation to some aspect of their lifestyle, such as the great benefit they offer for energy savings in flying.
- A pneumatic dermal layer is present beneath the skin.
- The bones were hollow and thin-walled, but also pneumatic: that is, they had openings in their walls that allowed air sacs from the respiratory system to enter the bones.
- 1
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- A pneumatically operated ball valve controls the flow of liquid nitrogen through each lance, and the entire process is sequenced from a pushbutton control panel.
- The first externally powered prosthetic limbs were built in Germany around 1915, although it was not until the 1950s that electrically and pneumatically powered devices appeared for general use.
- Graphically, the game is now stunning, with superb character animation and great backgrounds - although some might object to the pneumatically proportioned women.
Mid 17th century: from French pneumatique or Latin pneumaticus, from Greek pneumatikos, from pneuma 'wind', from pnein 'breathe'.
This comes from Greek pneumatikos, from pneuma 'wind'. Greek pnein 'breathe' is the base. Because the Greeks felt there was a strong association between breath and the soul the pneumatic is used in New Testament Greek to mean 'spiritual', and this is the sense first recorded in English. It came to be used for things inflated with air in the middle of the 19th century, and this opened the way to the development of pneumatic to describe a well-rounded female form. Rather surprisingly, T. S. Eliot is the first recorded user of this sense: 'Uncorseted her friendly bust Gives promise of pneumatic bliss' (Whispers of Immortality 1919).

I have a Rails 3.2 project using Minitest::Spec and Capybara.
My view contains multiple forms so I can either edit or delete the record. Sample code:
<%= simple_form_for @product do |f| %>
#all of my field code

<%= f.submit nil, :class => 'create-button', :id => 'update_product' %>
<%= link_to 'Cancel', products_path, :class => 'btn' %>

<% if !@product.new_record? %>

<%= button_to "delete", @product, :confirm => "Are you sure?", :method=>:delete, :class=>'delete-button', :id => 'delete_product' %>
<% end %>
In my test if I call click_on "update_product"
(the id of the update button) the delete action of the second form is called rather than the update action.

Generalized spatio-chromatic diffusion
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1298 - 1309
Cited by: Papers (6)A framework for diffusion of color images is presented. The method is based on the theory of thermodynamics of irreversible transformations which provides a suitable basis for designing correlations between the different color channels. More precisely, we derive an equation for color evolution which comprises a purely spatial diffusive term and a nonlinear term that depends on the interactions among color channels over space. We apply the proposed equation to images represented in several color spaces, such as RGB, CIELAB, Opponent colors, and IHS. View full abstract»
Infrared-image classification using hidden Markov trees
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1394 - 1398
Cited by: Papers (11)An image of a three-dimensional target is generally characterized by the visible target subcomponents, with these dictated by the target-sensor orientation (target pose). An image often changes quickly with variable pose. We define a class as a set of contiguous target-sensor orientations over which the associated target image is relatively stationary with aspect. Each target is in general characterized by multiple classes. A distinct set of Wiener filters are employed for each class of images, to identify the presence of target subcomponents. A Karhunen-Loeve representation is used to minimize the number of filters (templates) associated with a given subcomponent. The statistical relationships between the different target subcomponents are modeled via a hidden Markov tree (HMT). The HMT classifier is discussed and example results are presented for forward-looking-infrared (FLIR) imagery of several vehicles. View full abstract»
Reconstructing surfaces by volumetric regularization using radial basis functions
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1358 - 1371
Cited by: Papers (45) | Patents (4)We present a new method of surface reconstruction that generates smooth and seamless models from sparse, noisy, nonuniform, and low resolution range data. Data acquisition techniques from computer vision, such as stereo range images and space carving, produce 3D point sets that are imprecise and nonuniform when compared to laser or optical range scanners. Traditional reconstruction algorithms designed for dense and precise data do not produce smooth reconstructions when applied to vision-based data sets. Our method constructs a 3D implicit surface, formulated as a sum of weighted radial basis functions. We achieve three primary advantages over existing algorithms: (1) the implicit functions we construct estimate the surface well in regions where there is little data, (2) the reconstructed surface is insensitive to noise in data acquisition because we can allow the surface to approximate, rather than exactly interpolate, the data, and (3) the reconstructed surface is locally detailed, yet globally smooth, because we use radial basis functions that achieve multiple orders of smoothness.

Estimating the intrinsic dimension of data with a fractal-based method
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1404 - 1407
Cited by: Papers (42)In this paper, the problem of estimating the intrinsic dimension of a data set is investigated. A fractal-based approach using the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm is proposed. Since the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm (1983) performs badly on sets of high dimensionality, an empirical procedure that improves the original algorithm has been developed. The procedure has been tested on data sets of known dimensionality and on time series of Santa Fe competition. View full abstract»

Efficient simplicial reconstructions of manifolds from their samples
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1349 - 1357
Cited by: Papers (9) | Patents (1)An algorithm for manifold learning is presented. Given only samples of a finite-dimensional differentiable manifold and no a priori knowledge of the manifold's geometry or topology except for its dimension, the goal is to find a description of the manifold. The learned manifold must approximate the true manifold well, both geometrically and topologically, when the sampling density is sufficiently high. The proposed algorithm constructs a simplicial complex based on approximations to the tangent bundle of the manifold. An important property of the algorithm is that its complexity depends on the dimension of the manifold, rather than that of the embedding space. Successful examples are presented in the cases of learning curves in the plane, curves in space, and surfaces in space; in addition, a case when the algorithm fails is analyzed. View full abstract»
A maximum-likelihood surface estimator for dense range data
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1372 - 1387
Cited by: Papers (8) | Patents (1)Describes how to estimate 3D surface models from dense sets of noisy range data taken from different points of view, i.e., multiple range maps. The proposed method uses a sensor model to develop an expression for the likelihood of a 3D surface, conditional on a set of noisy range measurements. Optimizing this likelihood with respect to the model parameters provides an unbiased and efficient estimator. The proposed numerical algorithms make this estimation computationally practical for a wide variety of circumstances. The results from this method compare favorably with state-of-the-art approaches that rely on the closest-point or perpendicular distance metric, a convenient heuristic that produces biased solutions and fails completely when surfaces are not sufficiently smooth, as in the case of complex scenes or noisy range measurements. Empirical results on both simulated and real ladar data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for several different types of problems. Furthermore, the proposed method offers a general framework that can accommodate extensions to include surface priors, more sophisticated noise models, and other sensing modalities, such as sonar or synthetic aperture radar.

Restoration of archival documents using a wavelet technique
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1399 - 1404
Cited by: Papers (30)This paper addresses a problem of restoring handwritten archival documents by recovering their contents from the interfering handwriting on the reverse side caused by the seeping of ink. We present a novel method that works by first matching both sides of a document such that the interfering strokes are mapped with the corresponding strokes originating from the reverse side. This facilitates the identification of the foreground and interfering strokes. A wavelet reconstruction process then iteratively enhances the foreground strokes and smears the interfering strokes so as to strengthen the discriminating capability of an improved Canny edge detector against the interfering strokes. The method has been shown to restore the documents effectively with average precision and recall rates for foreground text extraction at 84 percent and 96 percent, respectively. View full abstract»
Generalized mosaicing: wide field of view multispectral imaging
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1334 - 1348
Cited by: Papers (13) | Patents (12)We present an approach to significantly enhance the spectral resolution of imaging systems by generalizing image mosaicing. A filter transmitting spatially varying spectral bands is rigidly attached to a camera. As the system moves, it senses each scene point multiple times, each time in a different spectral band. This is an additional dimension of the generalized mosaic paradigm, which has demonstrated yielding high radiometric dynamic range images in a wide field of view, using a spatially varying density filter. The resulting mosaic represents the spectrum at each scene point. The image acquisition is as easy as in traditional image mosaics. We derive an efficient scene sampling rate, and use a registration method that accommodates the spatially varying properties of the filter. Using the data acquired by this method, we demonstrate scene rendering under different simulated illumination spectra. We are also able to infer information about the scene illumination. The approach was tested using a standard 8-bit black/white video camera and a fixed spatially varying spectral (interference) filter. View full abstract»
Analytic PCA construction for theoretical analysis of lighting variability in images of a Lambertian object
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1322 - 1333
Cited by: Papers (73) | Patents (1)We analyze theoretically the subspace best approximating images of a convex Lambertian object taken from the same viewpoint, but under different distant illumination conditions. We analytically construct the principal component analysis for images of a convex Lambertian object, explicitly taking attached shadows into account, and find the principal eigenmodes and eigenvalues with respect to lighting variability. Our analysis makes use of an analytic formula for the irradiance in terms of spherical-harmonic coefficients of the illumination and shows, under appropriate assumptions, that the principal components or eigenvectors are identical to the spherical harmonic basis functions evaluated at the surface normal vectors. Our main contribution is in extending these results to the single-viewpoint case, showing how the principal eigenmodes and eigenvalues are affected when only a limited subset (the upper hemisphere) of normals is available and the spherical harmonics are no longer orthonormal over the restricted domain. Our results are very close, both qualitatively and quantitatively, to previous empirical observations and represent the first essentially complete theoretical explanation of these observations.

Elastically adaptive deformable models
Publication Year: 2002 , Page(s): 1310 - 1321
Cited by: Papers (17)We present a technique for the automatic adaptation of a deformable model's elastic parameters within a Kalman filter framework for shape estimation applications. The novelty of the technique is that the model's elastic parameters are not constant, but spatio-temporally varying. The variation of the elastic parameters depends on the distance of the model from the data and the rate of change of this distance. Each pass of the algorithm uses physics-based modeling techniques to iteratively adjust both the geometric and the elastic degrees of freedom of the model in response to forces that are computed from the discrepancy between the model and the data. By augmenting the state equations of an extended Kalman filter to incorporate these additional variables, we are able to significantly improve the quality of the shape estimation. Therefore, the model's elastic parameters are always initialized to the same value and they are subsequently modified depending on the data and the noise distribution. We present results demonstrating the effectiveness of our method for both two-dimensional and three-dimensional data. View full abstract»

Manufacturer: Bayer
Model: QuickBayt
Category: Fly Control
Purchase: A friend gave me half of a container he had purchased. Sells for around $10 per bottle.
Likes: THIS STUFF WORKS!!! I actually discovered how well it worked during a cookout at my home. The flies around my area are horrible, we live in a very rural area with lots of cattle, horses and chicken farms. The flies were totally ruining the cookout, he brought this bottle from his truck, put some on a paper plate, and the flies actually seemed to be more attracted to this than they were to the food.They were falling dead everywhere within minutes of landing on the bait.
I have since began using it in my 16 stall barn. I still stop and show visitors how fast this stuff works. When we muck stalls I will leave a little fresh manure in the wheelbarrow and sprinkle some quickbayt on it, and there are always hundreds of dead flies when I come back.
Dislikes: Of course you can't put this on the horse. And you have to be careful not to leave it out where it can be ingested by other animals, which concerned me with all of the other critters we have around. It seems to be pretty potent stuff. I was concerned about my cats and other animals getting into the product if I left it out, so I mixed the product with a little water and made a paste and then dipped cotton strings in the paste and hung them from the ceiling of the barn.
Quality: The red color of the granules help you "see" when the product has been eaten up by all of the now dead flies. Handy shaker can...IT WORKS...thats the best part.
Summary: This product works fast and the flies seem to like the taste, Works great for me since there are so many flies in my area.

Jury issues all too familiar
Aboriginal justice crisis in Ontario a Manitoba problem, too: experts
OTTAWA -- The lack of representation of First Nations people on juries -- causing a justice system crisis in Ontario -- is also a problem in Manitoba, local experts say.
Many of the same issues and recommendations made by former Supreme Court justice Frank Iacobucci in a report to the Ontario government Tuesday mirror those raised more than two decades ago during the Aboriginal Justice Inquiry in Manitoba.
Iacobucci was asked by the Ontario government in 2011 to investigate how First Nations were excluded from the jury system after the issue delayed two coroner's inquests and two criminal trials. He concluded there was no question too many juries do not have an appropriate number of First Nations people on them, particularly in northern Ontario.
"As this Report will demonstrate, there is not only the problem of a lack of representation of First Nations peoples on juries that is of serious proportions, but it is also regrettably the fact that the justice system generally as applied to First Nations peoples, particularly in the North, is quite frankly in a crisis," Iacobucci wrote.
His research found in the judicial district of Kenora about one in three residents lives on reserve but just one in 10 people listed on the jury roll is from a reserve.
Iacobucci concluded a number of reasons caused the problem, including language and geographical barriers and higher rates of mobility of First Nations residents on reserve. But there is also a level of racism at play, as well as a significant mistrust of the justice system by First Nations people after years of systemic discrimination at its hands.
Many of his findings and at least two of his recommendations mimic some found in the 1991 report of the Aboriginal Justice Inquiry in Manitoba. That inquiry noted there was not a single aboriginal person on the jury at the 1987 trial of the men accused of murdering Helen Betty Osborne in The Pas in 1971, even though she was killed in a region where aboriginal people made up more than half the population.
Both the AJI and Iacobucci recommended when a potential juror is exempted or a summons goes unanswered, the person be replaced with someone else from the same community. They also both recommended the federal government look at preventing lawyers from using challenges to discriminate against First Nations people.
Manitoba has not implemented either recommendation.
"Twenty-five years later and we're still having the same problem," said Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak Grand Chief David Harper. "The Manitoba government needs to dust off the AJI and get it back on its feet."
He said it isn't just juries, noting today you still go to the courthouse at The Pas and outside many of the faces are aboriginal but inside, "the police, the lawyers, the crown attorneys, the judges, they're not aboriginal. Something is wrong with this picture."
Wendy Whitecloud, a law professor at the University of Manitoba, was a commissioner on the Aboriginal Justice Inquiry Implementation Commission established by the Doer government in 1999. She said Tuesday recommendations made to address the lack of proper representation on juries were not a priority because the commission had limited time and a huge array of things to address.
But Whitecloud said any of the findings in the Ontario report almost surely will be applicable in northern Manitoba.
"This problem has been around for so long and as far as I know there hasn't been much done."
Whitecloud said there is an element of racism at play in that lawyers seem to think an aboriginal juror is more likely to be sympathetic to an aboriginal defendant and therefore challenges their presence.
"I think any government would be well-placed to look at this," said Whitecloud.
In 2007, a Manitoba First Nations man appealed his conviction for murder on the grounds the jury wasn't representative of his peers, however, his conviction was upheld.

Hernias in Dogs
A hernia is a rupture that occurs when an organ, intestine or fatty tissue squeezes through a weak spot or a hole in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. There are different types of hernias in dogs, some more serious than others. Hernias can be caused by muscular strain or injury and are sometimes genetic.
Umbilical: occurs at the belly button; can be caused by a dam being too rough with cord care Incisional: occurs through an incision or scar in the abdomen; can happen to dams after a C-section Inguinal: occurs in the inner groin Femoral: occurs in the upper thigh/outer groin Ventral: occurs in the general abdominal/ventral wall Hiatal: occurs inside the abdomen, along the upper stomach/diaphragm
All types of hernias should be looked at and treated by a vet.
A puppy with an umbilical hernia
If the umbilical hernia (at the umbilical cord site) can be pushed back in, it is called a reducible hernia and will need to be repaired. If it is not reducible it means the hole has closed or is too small for the outside tissue to be pushed back in. Reducible means you can push it in and make it temporarily go away, but it comes back. Some umbilical hernias need to be repaired and some do not. All hernias should be looked at by a vet to decide the proper course of action. Most umbilical hernias are repaired at the time of spay or neuter. Some dogs with umbilical hernias can still be part of a breeding program, as the hernias are not always genetic. During the whelp, sometimes a dam can be a little rough when it comes to cord care, pulling at the cord, causing damage to the tummy. Hernias that are genetic are called congenital umbilical hernias; these are when the puppy is born with a weak spot or hole in the belly wall. The intestine, fat or fluid pushes through the weak spot causing a bulge near the belly button (navel).
"Puppy with an inguinal hernia—you can push the bubble back in, but if course it doesn't stay for long."
When puppies are born with an inguinal hernia it is often a genetic birth defect. An inguinal hernia is a hole in the intestinal muscle wall where the intestines bulge out. If you do not get it repaired it could cause major life-threatening complications. Puppies born with this type of hernia should be spayed or neutered at the same time as the repair so the defect is not passed onto other dogs. This type of hernia is a more urgent case than an umbilical hernia as inguinal hernias can strangulate the bowel.

Saracen Bay Resort
Seaside chic
What we say:
Saracen Bay Resort has a run of impeccably clean bungalows situated on the sand and spaced out well. They're at the northern end of the bay creating greater privacy, though a couple of other properties -- Rumi and Freedom Island -- are reached on a separate part of the bay via a trail by the overwater restaurant, so a small amount of footfall passing by could be expected. Carefully designed and located, they are one of the top picks on the island for comfort while still representing value for money. The bungalows have three-tier roofs, with thatch for aesthetics inside and out sandwiching metal for rain and insect protection. Mosquito screens allow in light while keeping the little biters away. The tiled bedroom has a comfy bed with a princess mosquito net, a wardrobe, table and fan, while big windows lead onto a large shaded veranda fronting the beach. White painted walls give a less rustic feeling to the bedroom interiors. The sparklingly pristine bathrooms come with flush toilets and big showers. The elevated deck restaurant protrudes over the water and won't be heard from the bungalows -- even the generator is discreetly placed to reduce noise. The restaurant attracts guests from outside too for the setting. Given the high standards and associated prices, customers tend to be older couples on romantic escapes, creating their very own fantasy island experience. By bungalow standards on Cambodia's islands, Saracen Bay Resort is very well priced for what you get. In the same price bracket is Lazy Beach which provides much more rustic bungalows but a private beach. Comfier and costlier alternatives this side of the island include Secret Paradise Resort, Paradise Bungalows – The Villas, or one of the premium bungalows at The Beach.

(This article belongs to the Special Issue Molecular Catalysis for Precise Olefin Polymerization)
A synthetic scheme was developed for the large-scale preparation of a dimethylthiophene-fused and tetrahydroquinaldine-linked dimethylcyclopentadienyl titanium complex (2), which is a high-performance homogeneous Ziegler catalyst. 2,3,4,5-Tetramethyl-4,5-dihydrocyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-one was prepared without chromatography purification on the 40-g scale in a laboratory setting, from which the ligand precursor for 2 was obtained in 65% yield on a 50-g scale in a one-pot without the need for chromatography purification. Metallation was achieved in a high yield (78%) through reaction of the dilithiated compound with TiCl4. Many derivatives were prepared by employing the same synthetic scheme as applied for 2. Among them, the titanium complex prepared from 2-methyl-4,5-dimethyl-6-(2-n-butyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroquinolin-8-yl)-4H-cyclopenta[b]thiophene exhibited an exceptionally high activity. Under commercially relevant high-temperature polymerization conditions (160 °C), this compound showed a higher activity than 2 (126 × 106 g/molTi∙h versus 72 × 106 g/molTi∙h), albeit with the formation of a polymer of slightly lower molecular weight (Mw, 159,000 versus 218,000) and with a slightly lower 1-octene content (9.3 mol% versus 12 mol%).Keywords:
